Chapter 338: Dirty Deeds (3)
Li Meng felt the change in the gaze her cla.s.smates were looking at her with and she clenched her fists.
Just because she had such a father, ever since she was young, whenever someone in the cla.s.s loses something, her teacher and cla.s.smates would suspect her. They’d say that with such a father, she probably was someone bad too.
Why would she be bad just because she had such a father?
Ever since she was young, she’d never taken another glance at the belongings of others! Why did they have to stereotype her just because of her father?!
Why?!
Was it her choice to have such a father? She also wished that her father wasn’t a person like this!
But was this her choice?
She really hated it very much! She hated people saying that she was sticky-fingered!
Li Meng’s life was really tough and poor, all because of the father she had. No matter how hard she tried to earn money, it wasn’t able to fill the black hole caused by her father. If she didn’t give him money, he would constantly hara.s.s her mother and younger sister, resulting in them living in fear every day.
But after she gave him money, he’d come back again.
For the sake of Li Meng, Mu Huan had once taught her father a brutal lesson. However, after he had recovered, he was back to his original state. After that, Mu Huan wanted to send him into jail, but Li Meng’s father only stole and gambled, he didn’t commit other illegal acts.
After his legs were broken by someone, he could no longer steal, so he committed himself to gambling. Mu Huan had watched over him for really long, but she could only report him for gambling.
At the start of this year, he had committed such an act and was brought away. Mu Huan immediately went to find a really powerful lawyer to help the girl’s family, and Li Meng’s father was sentenced to 15 years of jail.
Her father was currently 45 years old, and by the time he’s out, he’d be an old man at 60. And this 15 years would be sufficient for Li Meng to grow strong enough to be able to not be threatened by him any longer.
After the court had given its sentence, Li Meng was so happy she hugged Mu Huan and cried for a whole night.
Obviously, Li Meng hated her father, but… others would say that it’s her blood-related father. The blood in her body was all dirty blood from that man and she was bad too.
This world was indeed so judgmental. Colored gla.s.ses would always be worn when looking at those people who were already so unlucky.
Mu Huan rushed forward and pulled Huo Yuqi’s collar with force. She said, “Huo Yuqi, you better apologize to Li Meng immediately!”
As Li Meng’s best friend who had accompanied her throughout that kind of school life, Mu Huan knew how much Li Meng hated others saying that she had sticky fingers.
Her Xiao Meng was so good. Just because of her father, she had been maligned since she was young and was judged by others with such discrimination! Now, she was even blamed and slandered to have done a dirty deed!
“Apologize? Why do I have to apologize? If an apology must be given, she should be the one doing so! Have you ever seen someone who got her things stolen apologize to the thief? Don’t tell me I’m supposed to apologize for having such good stuff that made you jealous, resulting in you stealing it?” Huo Yuqi sarcastically retorted.
Mu Huan’s eyes became cold. She used the other hand to grab her hair. Just as she was about to smash Huo Yuqi’s head until she admits to making Li Meng take the blame on purpose…
Li Meng pounced over and held her arm and said, “No, Xiao Huan! No!”
Mu Huan was able to think calmly when it concerned herself. However, when it hurt her friend, especially when she was the cause of it, she wasn’t able to accept it. She was really furious and she couldn’t control her boiling anger at all.
Even when Li Meng was hugging her like this, the anger radiating from her was so strong it would cause one to s.h.i.+ver!
