Madam Is A Sensational Figure In The City
Chapter 228: Marry An Ordinary ManChapter 228: Marry An Ordinary Man
“Second Young Mistress Huo, think about it. It’s all thanks to me that you could marry into the Huo family. I deserve some credit too. Don’t you think you’re going overboard by putting me behind bars?”
Yan Jinyi retorted, “Am I?”
Chen Yulian squinted and tried her best to seem kind and affable. “Ah, I knew you resented me for not telling you earlier, but your grandfather’s last wish was for you to marry an ordinary person!”
Chen Yulian sighed and continued, “You’re aware that your cousin is going to study abroad too. The cost of studying abroad is very high! I had no choice but to pawn the bracelet to get some cash for an emergency. When your uncle receives the money from his business, we will redeem it immediately!”
Chen Yulian sounded righteous and logical, so much that many surrounding neighbors believed her.

“Let’s put aside the fact that she sold my belonging without my permission and broke the law, she even lied about selling it by claiming that she pawned it. Shouldn’t an immoral person like her be punished?”
Hearing her words, Chen Yulian hurriedly retorted, “I admit that it is wrong to touch your things without your permission, but to be honest, we didn’t mistreat you when your parents passed away! How can you slander me?”
‘Slander?’
Yan Jinyi sneered, “The contract is right there in black and white, do you really think the Huo family is so easy to fool?”
With her face tensed up, Yan Jinyi slammed the photocopy of the contract that Chen Yulian had signed with the collector onto the table. “Open your eyes and take a good look. Do you want to have a verification done?”
Chen Yulian shuddered and realized that she seemed to have underestimated the Huo family’s ability.
It was a piece of cake for the Huo Family to find the buyer of the bracelet!
“She actually really sold someone else’s belonging without permission!”
“That pretty woman in a hat must be really rich, right? However, Chen Yulian has really gone overboard. Even if others are rich, it’s not right to sell their belongings without permission!”
“Exactly. Chen Yulian’s son has a poor character. Lots of kids in our estate are scared of him. How can he qualify to go study abroad?”
The voices of mockery were getting louder, and Chen Yulian felt a burning sensation in her face, wishing she could duck into a hole and hide.

“Oh my God, this person is simply a devil. Sir, quickly arrest her, this woman might encourage her entire family to steal from us in the future.”
Yan Jinyi shot her lawyer a look.
The lawyer immediately understood and spread out the documents in his hands and said eloquently, “According to article XX of the Criminal Law, Ms. Chen Yulian’s behavior is a severe crime. Unless she returns the money for the sale of the bracelet or returns the bracelet to Second Young Mistress Huo, we have every right and reason to sue her till the end of the lawsuit!”
‘What a joke!’
The Huo family’s legal team was one of the best in the nation and they had never lost a case!
If they really got embroiled in a lawsuit, she would have to stay behind bars for at least ten years!
Chen Yulian was really scared and she looked at Yan Jinyi with a pitiful expression. “Second Young Mistress Huo, the rest of the money we have is meant for Ankang’s education. I really can’t take it out, please, on the account that I’m your aunt and the fact that we took you in after your parents’ death, let’s just forget about this matter, right?”
