Chapter 8: Questioning
Translator: Lonelytree
Xiao Lingyu’s words stunned everyone.
What did she an by that?
It was Chen Ran who arranged the man to sleep with Xiao Lingyu? How was that possible?
Chen Ran was shocked, and a trace of panic flashed through his mind.
His expression changed abruptly, and then he said with a stiff face, “Yu ‘Er, wh-what nonsense are you talking about?”
Then his face brightened as if sothing had just co to him. “You’re saying all these because you’re angry at , aren’t you?”
Xiao Lingyu was amused by his shaless words. Instead of being angry, she laughed and said, “Chen Ran, you and Miss Zhao should know best whether I’m talking nonsense or not!”
Xiao Lingyu didn’t wait for Chen Ran to respond. She turned to glance at Zhao Wenman before turning back to Chen Ran with a serious expression. “Yesterday night, I received a call from Marketing Departnt’s Manager Li. He asked to accompany him to the Marriott hotel to receive a custor. The company is trying to get this client’s contract, so I was told to treat him well.”
Soone asked in puzzled, “But aren’t you from the HR Departnt? Why would Manager Li ask you for help?”
This was not right. This was a big company. The biggest taboo was interference between different departnts. Since this was a client of the Marketing Departnt, why would Manager Li ask an employee from the HR Departnt to receive the client? Was it because there was no good worker in the Marketing Departnt?
In an instant, many people looked suspiciously at the marketing departnt manager, Li Kui.
Li Kui did not expect the fire to burn him, but no matter what, he wouldn’t admit any wrongdoing.
He t Zhao Wenman’s gaze, and he nodded slightly. He turned his face up with anger. “Xiao Lingyu, don’t accuse . You were the one who requested to co to et this client. You said you wanted to get to know him because he is rich. Now, everyone, you should understand what is the aning behind that!”
Li Kui looked around and saw many people cast a disdainful and contemptuous look at Xiao Lingyu.
He secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He was satisfied with the result.
Li Kui continued, “I didn’t know how you found out about my eting with that client, but you ca to beg to bring you with . You said you were doing this to help Manager Chen. To give Manager Chen’s face, I succumbed to your pleas, so I called you before I went to et the client.”
Li Kui played the role of an indignant man well. He pointed at Xiao Lingyu and questioned loudly, “So how can you turn around to accuse !”
He looked at the crowd around him and pleaded, “If you want to know the truth, after Xiao Lingyu t the client and realized he was the general manager of a large corporation, she was tempted. She persuaded to leave because she told she would take down this client. I trusted Manager Chen, so I obliged.”
He looked at Xiao Lingyu with ridicule and said with contempt. “But I didn’t expect her to drug the client and go to the hotel with him! I’m sure I didn’t need to explain what happened next.”
The story explained the pictures shared on the company group. After hearing Li Kui’s explanation, the people sided with him and bought his story without verification.
“Xiao Lingyu, you sure are shaless. How can you do such a thing to climb to the top? After what you’ve done, you even want to fra others? How despicable!”
“Xiao Lingyu, you are the most shaless person in the world! Now we have both physical evidence and witness, what else do you have to say?”
“That’s right. The pictures capture your sin perfectly. How can you even think of framing Manager Li and Manager Chen?”
...
Xiao Lingyu felt like she was thrown back into her past life for a mont. When she faced these insults and accusations in the past, she was at a loss. Her mind almost collapsed. She didn’t know how to defend herself.
But this ti...
Xiao Lingyu looked at the ugly faces around her and chuckled. “Are you people blind? You’re saying I drugged that pighead? Look at those pictures. Does he look drugged? I was the one being carried in his arms! Who was the one being drugged? I was almost sacrificed to this disgusting man. Thankfully, I managed to escape, or else they would have succeeded. Manager Chen, you have to stand up for .”
Chen Ran’s expression shifted, and he growled angrily. “That’s enough, Xiao Lingyu! You’re horrible. This is not the way to advance your career. You’ve made a fool of yourself, and you want to stand up for you? Xiao Lingyu, you’ve disappointed greatly. What have I done that you need to do this to ? If you don’t love anymore, you can break up with like normal. Why do you need to humiliate ?”
Xiao Lingyu scoffed, “I really have to applaud your acting. That is sothing I need to learn from you. Chen Ran, I’ve known you for ten years already. I have no idea you’re so ruthless. You can throw our ten-year relationship down the drain for your own benefit. Speaking of disappointnt and humiliation, I’m the real victim here!” Xiao Lingyu hissed out the last of her words.
‘I must be blind to love this jerk for ten years.’
Thanks to Chen Ran Xiao Lingyu lost her son and her life. But this ti, she would not make the sa mistake again.
The crowd didn’t understand Xiao Lingyu. They still sided with Chen Ran. They thought Xiao Lingyu was just being crazy and making unreasonable accusations.
Li Kui was about to jump in to reprimand Xiao Lingyu when the latter suddenly said, “Chen Ran, how long have you been together with Miss Zhao? I’m sure you two have done everything other than having an official engagent.”
Chen Ran’s breathing stopped. His pupils constricted, and his expression changed drastically.
Even Zhao Wenman, who had been sitting by the side and watching, also shook. Her expression imdiately changed.
Neither of them had expected Xiao Lingyu to know about this!
‘When did she find out? And how much did she know?’ Naturally, the two didn’t dare to voice these questions.
Chen Ran was about to berate Xiao Lingyu when Xiao Lingyu continued, “You want to get engaged with her, but I am in the way. If you broke up with and got engaged to Zhao Wenman, people would start talking. They are not fools. Chen Ran, they’ll say that you’ve abandoned your girlfriend to marry into money. Therefore, to preserve your own reputation, you didn’t hesitate to ruin mine. But you go one step further to threaten my life!”
Xiao Lingyu’s anger rose. She questioned, “Chen Ran, what have I done to you? Why are you so ruthless? For your own benefit, you are going to sacrifice ?”
Everyone was dumbfounded by this plot twist.
However, no one dared to say anything because this involved the chairman’s daughter.
