The onlookers were just there for the spectacle, chiming in with their opinions. But after being berated by Mrs. Yuan, they shut their mouths. Though they found her even more crass and unreasonable, they didn't want to provoke such a scoundrel over a stranger.
Su Yuhan never intended to use the crowd to pass judgment on this shameless family. Her only goal was to seize the initiative, letting the onlookers see the Yuans' true colors beforehand. This would prevent them from being deceived by the Yuan Family's lies, taking their side, and in turn, putting pressure on Yuan Xiangxiang. In that respect, her goal was already achieved.
The Yuan family clearly realized this as well and turned to glare daggers at Su Yuhan.
Realizing that neither the soft approach nor inciting the crowd against Yuan Xiangxiang was working, they decided to resort to their old tricks and use force.
