Ling Yiran had not been expecting to come across Hao Yimeng again so quickly.
Hao Yimeng looked the same as when Ling Yiran had met her for the first time all those years ago. She was good-looking with meticulously applied makeup and dressed in haute couture. She was a celebrity in the film and television circles and also veritably a socialite within the city.
Even then, when Hao Yimeng permitted others to rip out her nails, she was still dressed exquisitely. Her expensive and branded clothes stood out in the dark prison.
She looked so radiant and glamorous.
It was also this city socialite, highly esteemed by everyone else, who used a venomous tone to give the order to rip out my nails and carried out such a cruel lynching!
Hao Yimeng has become a nightmare she can't escape from!
Fang Qianmei, who was accompanying Hao Yimeng, also noticed Ling Yiran and immediately sneered. "I was wondering who this is. Yimeng, isn't she the perpetrator who killed your sister? This sure is karma. I can't believe she's now here working as a sanitation worker."
Ling Yiran's complexion paled and she remained silent. She lowered her head and continued to sweep up the rubbish that was still visible.
"She sure is thick-skinned. If it were me who had killed someone's elder sister and come across the younger sister now, I'm afraid I would cry bitterly as I knelt down and asked for forgiveness. I can't believe that some people would see it as not a big deal," Fang Qianmei taunted further.
Ling Yiran took a deep breath and slowly raised her head. She looked at the two of them and said, "I've already paid the price."
"I was incarcerated for three years over an unwarranted accusation and my lawyer license was suspended. I suffered through all sorts of hardships in jail and could only be a sanitation worker after being released.
Her life was consequently thrown off track. She paid far too much for this affair.
