?Chapter 520: Chapter 507: Shameless Chapter 520: Chapter 507: Shameless “She went on to say that since she had already refused to take the items, it was highly inappropriate for me to keep insisting. She said that if word about our dispute were to get out, it would be unbearable for her. She threatened that if I dared say another word about it to anyone, she would spread rumors that I pursued her.”
“Her words scared me into silence. Luckily someone else came out at that moment, and Mrs. Liu left hastily. When I got back, people kept asking what Mrs. Liu and I were doing in the courtyard. I didn’t know whether to tell them the truth or not, so I ended up saying that my stomach was unwell, and I had to go back earlier.”
“I thought that would be the end of it. But today she came again, she mentioned a bunch of stuff around and around again. After listening to her, I realized what she was trying to say; that our family life has improved a bit, and we had some money to spare.

There are many places where we need to spend money, why should we give charity to her?”
“As soon as I said this, Mrs. Liu immediately got angry. She criticized our family for being stingy and threatened that if we didn’t give her any money, then she would spread rumors about us, making it impossible for me to live. When I heard this, I was even more furious.”
“I criticized Mrs. Liu harshly, telling her that I’ve always lived a good life and I’m not afraid of her baseless accusations. Seeing that I wasn’t budging, Mrs. Liu left cursing.”
“Even though she left, I could tell by her attitude that she was angry because we didn’t give her any money. When she goes back, who knows what rumors she’ll spread. I’m not afraid of what others might say about me. I’ve done nothing wrong, so I’m not scared that they might criticize me. I just mentioned it to you here, in case you might start to overthink if a rumor inadvertently slips out…”
