As these words left her lips, the ladies who had just been gossiping all turned deathly pale. No one dared to utter a word, terrified that if they spoke too much, they would become the next target of Yun Feiwan’s sharp tongue.
They were all accustomed to gathering together to trade rumors, but never before had they encountered anyone like Yun Feiwan, who would confront them directly and berate them so mercilessly. They realized then that they had crossed a formidable opponent. Regret flooded their hearts. Madam Huang’s fate was plain for all to see, and with that cautionary tale before them, they couldn't help but tremble.
Yun Feiwan let out a cold snort. "A moment ago, you were all wagging your tongues with such conviction. What happened? You were so spirited when whispering behind people's backs, yet now that I am standing right in front of you, you dare not speak? So, you realize you have a guilty conscience? You know that what you were saying was false, and that you were merely spinning tales and sowing discord out of thin air."
