Chosen One, how did I end up as the villain?

"That's right!"

The group nodded in agreement.

Those outside who knew the inside story also agreed.

"Master Jia is right. Only a minority have been deceived; we are the majority. Yinling Temple still has value."

"Well, in fact, those who were deceived didn't really lose out, and they lived carefree lives, didn't they? Yinling Temple didn't take anything from them, so it can't be considered a violation of the law."

"Those people are just making a fuss about never making any more wishes. As far as I know, they're still secretly making money. They're hypocritical and hypocritical. They're really despicable."

Hearing the murmurs, Feng Yunming's face darkened. Qin Huaiyu was right; these people were indeed eager for profit, choosing to ignore the facts even when they were right in front of them.

He looked at Jia Yu with a gloomy gaze.

"You mean, we should just let Yinling Temple continue like this?"

"Of course not!"

Having been in business for many years, Jia Yu had become highly skilled at reading people's expressions, and he naturally noticed the town mayor's displeasure. However, compared to the former, he remained loyal to his own interests.

Who told him to be so greedy? But in order not to offend the mayor, he still thought it over and said:

"We can give them a necessary warning, since what Yinling Temple did was indeed dishonorable. In addition, we can demand some compensation from them in the name of the town government."

Damn it, still thinking about money? Who do you think you are? You even have ideas? Those bald monks at Yinling Temple can easily rip you off. Your warning is just wishful thinking.

Feng Yunming felt a headache coming on, and he turned his gaze to Shen Wan'er.

Shen Wan'er nodded in understanding, then stood up and said:

"Boss Jia, Uncle Feng didn't ask you for advice. Yinling Temple has done such a despicable thing, and you're still taking its side. I think you're just afraid of losing your own interests!"

These words hit the nail on the head, and Jia Yu's face flushed red. She quickly said:

"Miss Shen, please don't wrong anyone. I'm doing this for everyone's sake!"

"Hmph, for everyone!"

Shen Wan'er snorted coldly, then glanced at everyone present.

"There's no such thing as a free lunch. Is the marriage wish fake, but the money wish real? Taking other people's money will inevitably come at a price. Yinling Temple must have something on its mind."

Everyone present was intelligent and immediately understood.

"I haven't really looked into that. Yinling Temple is just a temple, why would they give up so much money?"

"That's right, and if you count by the number of people, there are countless people planting money every day. That's a huge sum of money, even we can't afford it."

.............

Seeing that things were not going well, Jia Yu quickly said:

"Buddhism promotes cultivating good karma, what's wrong with that? On the contrary, Miss Shen, do you have any evidence to prove that Yinling Temple has ulterior motives? Otherwise, I can consider you to be harboring malicious intentions and harming everyone's interests!"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to Shen Wan'er with puzzled looks.

Shen Wan'er was speechless for a moment, her beautiful eyes coldly fixed on the other person. This miser only cared about profit, and was willing to call black white for it, yet she had no way to prove it...

That's absolutely infuriating!

Seeing this, Jia Yu added fuel to the fire.

"Miss Shen, is it because the head of the Shen family has died that you are afraid that the people here will shake the status of your Shen family?"

"Nonsense! What does status matter? Can it compare to the safety of the entire town?" Shen Wan'er retorted coldly.

But such a righteous and awe-inspiring explanation seemed so pale and powerless at this moment.

"If that's the case, then what's the evidence?" someone asked.

This single act caused a huge uproar; immediately everyone turned their anger towards Shen Wan'er and began to speak out:

"Yes, Miss Shen, we need evidence!"

The questions came one after another.

“..............” Shen Wan’er’s pretty face turned bright red.

We wholeheartedly recommend this book to you: "The Chosen One, How Did I Become the Villain?", here is the link to read it.

Feng Yunming felt a headache coming on as he watched the situation spiral out of control. These people had gone mad; they actually dared to cause trouble at the town government!

"What's all the fuss about? You want evidence, huh? I have it!"

Just then, a loud shout suddenly rang out from inside the courtyard.

Upon hearing this, the crowd immediately fell silent and turned to look.

A handsome young man carrying a person, followed by a very ugly person, swaggered through the crowd and entered the hall.

"Isn't that Young Master Qin? And behind him is Zheng Laizi. What are they doing together?"

"Look at what Young Master Shen is carrying! It's so ugly!"

"Does it look like a hairy person?"

"No, that nose, those eyes, it's clearly a big black rat with arms and legs!"

Everyone was surprised and doubtful, even those in the inner hall looked shocked; this was clearly a monster.

Feng Yunming secretly breathed a sigh of relief; they'd finally arrived, but this big rat...

Shen Wan'er didn't look at him much; her eyes were fixed on Qin Huaiyu. Her fair face was flushed with the embarrassment of being forced into a corner, making her look quite aggrieved.

So cute, I want to pinch my cheeks!

Qin Huaiyu thought to himself, but his face darkened as he looked at the instigator.

"Was that the evidence you wanted?"

Who do you think you are, bullying even a woman?

Meeting the cold gaze, Jia Yu felt a chill run down his spine, and his fleshy face trembled involuntarily. But for the sake of saving face, he still forced himself to say:
