Liu Wentian was indeed a bit disappointed by the reactions of the people on the bus, but he wasn't much surprised; he had anticipated this outcome a long time ago.
He had refrained from taking action just yet because he wanted Jade to see the true colors of these people.
Jade seemed like a simple and naïve girl. Witnessing this scene, though harsh, was necessary for her to gain a broader understanding of society.
Otherwise, if she ran into this kind of situation again and spoke out rashly, she would be in trouble.
Now that the objective was achieved, there was naturally no reason to hold back any longer.
Seeing that Liu Wentian finally spoke up, Jade was not afraid; a very happy smile appeared on her face. Then, she saw a middle-aged man wielding a knife at Liu Wentian, which frightened her into screaming before immediately stepping in front of him.
