"Why the sudden change of heart?!" Luo Yanyu protested, her voice rising sharply.
The sudden outburst caused everyone nearby to pause their activity, ears perking up as the tension in the air thickened.
"You were full of fire just a week ago!" she continued, stepping forward.
"You said you'd humiliate them in court and make sure every last one of them was punished! So why are you backing out now?"
The gathering fell completely silent, all eyes on the confrontation. Everyone in Lianwu Street knew the case—how much suffering Madam He endured, how much they'd all rallied behind the old couple. They wanted justice too.
"Luo Yanyu is right," Han Queying added, her arms crossed and voice firm.
"We have solid evidence. We even managed to link Golden Earth's involvement in trying to monopolize this district. Dropping this now means all our efforts go to waste."
