Jin Mo knew in her heart that Cheng Peng wanted to accuse others of his wrongdoings first, gaining the upper hand so that whatever he said would be taken as truth. Moreover, from appearances, it indeed looked like Cheng Peng was injured, which put her and Tang Yan at a disadvantage.
Listening to Cheng Peng's accusations, Tang Yan didn't refute but instead let out a soft laugh, filled with sarcasm in his tone.
"I did hit you, what can you do about it?" Tang Yan raised an eyebrow.
This statement was extremely arrogant and indeed fit Tang Yan's style. With his current status in Ningjiang, he could do as he pleased.
Everyone was stunned; nobody expected Tang Yan to openly admit his wrongdoing, causing the room to fall into sudden silence.
Jin Mo leaned against Tang Yan and took his hand, seemingly asking him why he admitted it.
Tang Yan's expression was calm as he gripped Jin Mo's hand back, his eyes full of pride.
