Gain A Cute Wife By 'Kidnap' Chapter 174

Chapter 174 - Reap What One Sows

“What's the matter? Still not leaving? Waiting for an invitation, perhaps?” Mu Sifa's icy tone cut through the air, revealing his clear disdain for Elina.

Elina, who stood behind him, hesitated, but Mu Sifa's cold words left her with no choice but to reluctantly depart.

Elina wasn't content with this, but staying would only further irritate Mu Sifa, so she left with a sense of defeat.

Observing Elina's exit from the eting room, a nearby staff mber began to whisper to their colleague.

“How shaless can she be? Even though the Principal doesn't favor her, she's still utterly shaless.”

“Absolutely! Just because the Principal's favorite has left doesn't an it's her turn!”

“But didn't the Principal marry the Shang Family's young lady? Who was his favorite, then? His own wife?” Soone inquired with curiosity.

“Certainly not! Everyone knows that the Principal and the current Miss Shang Family are very respectful towards each other. Besides, she's engaged to Jia Tianxia, no secret there.”

“I've heard about that too. Although they call it a marriage, it's the young master of the Shang Family who's the Principal's true favorite. He's quite infatuated with him.”

“Isn't he the President's brother-in-law? Can they really do that?”

“It's happened before multiple tis in the past. The old staff mbers are well aware of it.”

“Indeed, indeed. Then, five years ago, when the young master disappeared, the Principal searched for him for a whole month and even skipped an entire day of work. If sothing like that were to happen again, it would create quite a stir.”

“Have they still not found him?”

“It seems they haven't. Otherwise, why would the Principal look so gloomy? He used to be so cheerful, especially when he was with the young master.”

“Let's not call the young master a mistress, though! People who said that in the past got fired.”

“Is that for real?”

“Absolutely. Jia Tianxia would personally dismiss them.”

Initially, the conversation revolved around Elina, but it gradually shifted to Shang Cijie.

Elina overheard the conversation and, at first, she disliked these people gossiping about her. However, her anger flared when Shang Cijie beca the topic of discussion, despite his long absence.

“Is the hospital your personal chat room? Scatter!” Elina snapped, her anger surging.

Elina's sharp words earned her cold stares from everyone, followed by mocking remarks. “Is she trying to beco the lady of the house? It's hilarious to think she owns this place.”

“Exactly! She's been living in a beautiful dream for five years! Why hasn't she woken up yet?”

“What's there to wake up from? Who wouldn't want to continue such a delightful dream? Let her be. It's not our concern.”

“That's true! But when the Principal's favorite returns, it's going to be quite a spectacle!”

“Oh, I can't wait!”

“Alright, alright. Let's all get back to work! We don't want others to dislike us and deduct our pay.”

“Fine, fine! If she allows us to.”

They continued their hushed conversation, occasionally giggling while covering their mouths. Clearly, their aim was to infuriate Elina.

“A bunch of awful people.”

She no longer possessed the composure she had five years ago. Back then, she knew how to maintain authority, but her true nature had now surfaced, causing people to avoid her and harbor resentnt.

Because Elina saw herself as the mistress, she bullied nurous newcors to Little ng, particularly young won, whom she pushed away.
