Ye Yao's expression stiffened.
Shen Weiyi said, "Lady Ye, I don't quite understand what you mean. What do you mean by you didn't know things would turn out this way? I remember making it very clear that day. It's not impossible for me to drop the charges, as long as you make a public apology, I will not pursue the matter further. It was you, Lady Ye, who vehemently disagreed, which is why Shen Zhe had to take the blame and was taken away by the police. I thought Lady Ye valued her own face more than her boyfriend's, preferring to have her boyfriend detained rather than admit her own mistakes in public. It turns out I was wrong; it wasn't for your own face, but for your cousin's, making it seem as if you sisters' faces are precious, but our Shen Family's face is not?"
"I didn't mean that," Ye Yao's eyes flashed with panic.
Her original intention was to extricate herself from the situation, but instead, she found herself sinking deeper into trouble.
