Cursing

Every expense and income of Mei Shu was meticulously recorded in the bank.
Except for the initial two transactions of money received from Mei Yun when she returned home, the rest of the money had no relation to Mei Yun whatsoever.
The police could see it clearly and presented the evidence to Pan Hua.
But she still refused to believe it.
“She’s just a high school graduate. Where did she get so much money? It must be either stolen or obtained through robbery, or maybe she sold herself! I’ll never believe that she earned this money herself. She’s just a girl from the countryside, incapable of such things!”
Her words were too harsh. Even the patient police officer, who was usually very patient, was now showing signs of impatience. “Auntie, if we can’t resolve this here, then you’ll have to come with me to the police station!”
“Why? Are you planning to arrest me? I haven’t committed any crime! 1 just broke two worthless vases!”
Pan Hua continued to be unreasonable, but at this point, it was evident to everyone that she was at her wit’s end. Being so aggressive and irrational wouldn’t benefit her in any way.
Mei Ye contemplated and pulled Pan Hua aside, whispering, “Sister-in-law, let’s opt for a settlement first. Then you can call Mei Yun and ask him to come to the company. Let’s see what Mei Shu has to say then! Otherwise, if we really end up in the police station, it won’t be easy to get out of it!”
After hearing his words, Pan Hua still looked conflicted but ultimately trusted Mei Ye more. She nodded reluctantly. “Fine, 1’11 do as you say.”
Mei Ye nodded and softened his tone with the police. “We just discussed it. It was indeed my sister-in-law’s fault for breaking the vases. Can’t we settle everything here without going to the police station? It would be better for both parties, wouldn’t it?”
Pan Hua’s attitude also took a complete turn. She quickly added, “Yes, yes, Officer, I’m willing to compensate. But I really don’t have that much money. Look at me, I’m just a seventy-year-old woman. How could I possibly have so much money? Could you please negotiate for me to reduce the compensation?”
This was a reasonable request. The police paused and turned to Mei Shu. “Miss Mei, could you consider making a concession? After all, both parties benefit from compromising.”
Mei Shu said seriously, “If I agree to let her pay less today, how would I compensate for the losses I’ve suffered innocently?”
The police were momentarily at a loss for words. However, considering Pan Hua’s age, they reluctantly said, “Miss Mei, although Auntie and you have had many unpleasant encounters before, no matter what, she is your nominal grandmother. Could you sit down and negotiate again, considering this relationship?”
“Officer,” Mei Shu said firmly, “if the person who broke the vases today was an unfamiliar, poor elderly person with no grudge against me, I would not ask for a single penny and would consider it my bad luck.”
“But obviously, Pan Hua is not such a person. Not only did she intentionally break the vases, but she also slandered and insulted me afterward. Why should I compromise for her benefit?”
Her words made perfect sense. The old lady’s attitude had been too aggressive; she even said outrageous things about an innocent eighteen-year-old girl, which no one could tolerate, let alone now she was expecting leniency.
The police suddenly felt a headache.
If only this old lady hadn’t been so unreasonable, things wouldn’t have been so difficult.
“How about this, could you suggest a compensation amount that you can accept, and then see if Auntie here has the ability to repay it in installments?” the police proposed.
Mei Shu raised an eyebrow. “250,000 yuan, not a penny less. Otherwise, I’d rather have nothing and just let you lock her up for a few days, giving her a good lesson!”
“Mei Shu! Don’t push your luck!” The old lady still couldn’t see the situation clearly.
She glared at Mei Shu and used the most malicious words she could muster to curse her, “You, a slut without upbringing since childhood, even if you’re willing to become someone’s mistress, nobody would want you!”
“Do you still hope to marry into the Lu family? 1 think you’re just daydreaming. What’s the status of Lu Si? They’re just playing with you, and you take it seriously? Ridiculous! Just wait, I’ll call your father now and see how he’ll deal with you!”
With that, Pan Hua directly called Mei Yun, angrily telling him everything over the phone.
After a moment, a heavy sigh came from the phone. “Mom! Why did you go to Mei Shu’s company behind my back? Didn’t 1 tell you not to disturb Mei Shu anymore? Why don’t you listen to me?”
Upon hearing this, Pan Hua felt short of breath, patting her chest in anger.. “I’m your mother! Are you now siding with this little b*tch against me?”
