Lan Yueying was already feeling terrible, and Bai You'er's sarcastic remark only made her feel worse. She was also filled with a sense of injustice.
The main reason she had imprisoned Bai Yingshi and her disciples was out of frustration and to scare them into not speaking ill of her son.
If Ye Fei hadn't shown up, she would never have let her son harm them.
But Ye Fei's sudden arrival had disrupted all her plans. What was meant to be a simple scare had turned her into a villain in their eyes, and she had been humiliated by Ye Fei in the process.
How could she not feel wronged?
However, Lan Yueying also knew that even if she explained her original intentions now, no one would believe her.
So she had kept silent. Hearing Bai You'er's words, she could only smile bitterly.
Unlike her disciple's fiery temperament, Bai Yingshi was much gentler. Moreover, she and Lan Yueying had been close friends for years, and she didn't want to see Lan Yueying suffer further.
