Chapter 1040: Chapter 1010: I Was So Busy Scolding Her That I Forgot to Scold You, Right?

Josie Martin’s words bluntly exposed the current situation where capital and personal interests are supreme to everyone.

Open and straightforward.

She’s openly telling everyone that she was born well, that her family background is good, and being born into privilege is both her luck and skill.

Others want to refute her, but can’t.

Because what she’s saying is the truth.

Is having a good family background a skill that can be chosen?

Listening to Josie Martin, Chu Ling was slightly taken aback, inwardly asking herself a question.

So, if she had told Song Chengyun the truth back then, would he not have broken up with her? Would he not have been with Josie Martin, and would he have steadfastly chosen her all along?

Does she need to be chosen by him?

Chu Ling asked herself another question in her heart, then looked up at the man in front of her.

Soon, she frowned and shook her head.

No.

She doesn’t need it.

If someone can choose you because of your family background, they can certainly abandon you for the same reason.

Even now, she has always believed that whatever she wants to achieve, she should obtain it through her own efforts and capabilities.

Family background can be her confidence, but it cannot be her lifelong reliance or the complete definition of her value.

At this moment, she still believes this.

Having figured this out, Chu Ling no longer dwelled on it.

She exhaled slightly, raising her head, her face returning to the initial calm and unemotional demeanor.

"So, is family background your reason for interfering in others’ relationships and stealing someone’s boyfriend?"

Josie Martin’s face suddenly changed.

Just now, she was too angry, and those words slipped out without filtering through her brain.

Chu Ling looked at her expressionlessly, her voice very calm, "I always thought Miss Josie was born into Country A’s nobility, that nobles cared more about honor and integrity, moral character, but now it seems I was thinking too much. Miss Josie’s taste is rather unique, able to digest anything!"

"You..."

"Miss Josie!" Chu Ling coldly interrupted Josie Martin, "If I were you, I’d keep my distance when seeing me. What qualifications do you, an outsider interfering in others’ relationships, have to be arrogant in front of me? Or is it that today’s outsiders all have such thick skins? Snatching up others’ unwanted garbage and insisting on flaunting it as if displaying a trophy of their victory? Family background is a skill of being chosen? Heh, so Miss Josie’s excellent family background is just used for competing over men?"

The people around them were dumbfounded.

There’s so much drama that they’re having a hard time processing it.

Originally, they thought learning that Chu Ling and Song Chengyun were once involved was the most shocking revelation of the day.

Unexpectedly, one revelation was more explosive than the last.

So, Josie Martin, a distinguished international supermodel from Country A nobility, is actually a third party in someone else’s relationship?

Hiss...

Everyone collectively drew a sharp breath.

Han Ying looked at the indomitably confrontational Chu Ling with an approving expression.

How Chu Ling once blushed after saying just two words now was quite different; her debating skills clearly received true teachings from President Su.

However, Chu Ling now is increasingly like President Su.

Not only does her serious demeanor when debating resemble President Su, but even her charm and expressions bear some similarity.

"You... you..."

Josie Martin’s eyes reddened with rage, the covert glances from around wrapped her in a cloud of humiliation.

She glared at Chu Ling with wide eyes, her chest heaving heavily and her body swaying, unable to help but step back.

Song Chengyun quickly reached out to hold her waist, stabilizing her shaky form, and looked up at the indifferent Chu Ling across from him, frowning, his gaze full of unfamiliarity.

"Chu Ling, you’ve gone too far; unleash any grievances on me. There’s no need to target Josie; Josie is innocent and has no ill intentions toward you. Why be so aggressive!"

"Ha." Listening to Song Chengyun’s accusation-filled words, Chu Ling couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh, slightly lifting her gaze, her eyes cold and clear, "Did I get carried away cursing her that I forgot to curse you?" 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"You..."

"I’m targeting her?" Chu Ling pointed at Josie Martin, amused, speaking sharply: "Wasn’t it both of you blocking my way from the beginning? No ill intentions toward me? Wasn’t she the one yelling at me non-stop? Me aggressive? Wasn’t she persistently harassing me? Me going too far? Who exactly is going too far?!"
