The well-dressed woman looked down at Su Yun from above, her posture lofty and condescending.
It was as if she were staring at a beggar. The disgust in her eyes was not hidden in the slightest.
"Su Yun, what a coincidence," she said.
When Liu Qingshan saw Su Yun, her almond-shaped eyes brightened slightly. She turned to the woman beside her and said, "Mom, he is—"
Before she could finish, Mrs. Liu let out a cold laugh. "I know exactly who he is. A useless nobody living in the slums."
Su Yun frowned faintly.
In fact, this was not the first time he had met Mrs. Liu.
He had seen her as early as half a year ago.
Back then, she had already warned Su Yun to stay away from her daughter.
Otherwise, he would bear the consequences.
"Mom, please don't talk about Su Yun like that…" Liu Qingshan said awkwardly.
But Mrs. Liu paid her no attention and continued to look down at Su Yun. "Useless trash. This is my final warning to you."
"Qingshan is already an adult, with a bright future ahead of her. Someone as lowly as you thinks you're qualified to get close to her?"
"What a joke. A toad dreaming of eating swan meat."
Her voice was loud, and many passersby slowed their steps, turning their heads to look.
Su Yun said nothing, but his fists slowly clenched.
"What? You want to hit me?"
Seeing his reaction, Mrs. Liu laughed even harder.
She crossed her arms and raised her chin arrogantly. "Go on, hit me. I'll make sure you spend the rest of your life rotting in prison, with no one to rely on."
"When you're finally released decades later, all you'll be good for is breaking your back on construction sites until you die."
"Bottom-tier trash. Absolute garbage."
Mrs. Liu was utterly domineering, every word stabbing straight into the heart.
Liu Qingshan was left stunned.
She couldn't understand why her mother was targeting Su Yun so aggressively.
As for Su Yun, he took a deep breath. In the end, he said nothing more and simply turned to leave.
Seeing that Su Yun showed no reaction, Mrs. Liu clicked her tongue again.
"Coward. Do you know why so many people call you a simp?"
"I had people spread it deliberately, just to ruin your reputation."
"From now on, you'll always be a joke."
Su Yun abruptly stopped. He turned around and stared at Mrs. Liu coldly. "So it was you behind all of this."
He had found it strange.
The moment Liu Qingshan awakened an S-rank talent, rumors began attacking him from all sides.
So it was this crazy woman stirring up trouble behind the scenes.
Beside him, Liu Qingshan looked equally shocked.
She stared at Su Yun, guilt surging in her heart, yet she said nothing, standing there in a daze.
Seeing Su Yun's expression and gaze, Mrs. Liu felt a surge of delight in her heart.
She was not foolish.
Everything she had done just now was meant to provoke Su Yun, to make him lash out at her in front of Liu Qingshan.
That way, Liu Qingshan's impression of him would instantly shatter.
At the same time, she could even have Su Yun sent to prison.
Two birds with one stone.
Then, Mrs. Liu stepped forward quickly and said viciously, "Three years ago, Qingshan was almost abducted by members of the Heavenly Demon Cult!"
"I suspect you were behind it all, deliberately trying to get close to Qingshan and the Liu family!"
"You traitor to the human race!"
Those words caused the expressions of many bystanders to change dramatically.
The Heavenly Demon Cult.
A foreign cult hidden within Blue Star.
They specialized in using words to deceive people into joining them, stopping at nothing to make them give their lives for the organization.
These foreign cults had destroyed countless families.
Happy homes were torn apart, leaving husbands and wives separated.
There were even cases where a husband personally cut off his wife's head, laughing madly as he said, "An offering for my lord!"
Nowadays, Huaxia dealt harshly with foreign cults.
Anyone caught belonging to one would be executed without exception.
Su Yun stared at Mrs. Liu intently, desperately wanting to smash his fist into her face.
