Gu Dai replied coolly, "As I recall, you didn't just slander me."

Li Ying instantly understood Gu Dai's implication. She was expected to apologize to Wei Jia as well, but the thought was unbearable.

Her disdain for Wei Jia was common knowledge; apologizing to her in public would be a humiliating blow to her own reputation.

Gu Dai spoke indifferently, "Don't get any false hope. I will hire a lawyer for Wei Jia."

Envy drove Li Ying to the brink of madness. She couldn't fathom why Gu Dai would help Wei Jia. With red eyes and a choked voice, she apologized reluctantly, "I'm sorry."
