nIgnoring the physical discomfort, Xiao Lingyu left the hotel in a hurry!
n
nShe knew that a tough battle was waiting for her at the company.
n
nIn her previous life, her mind was blank when she woke up at the hotel. It was because she had just slept with a man. She had no idea how that happened, but she was deeply ashamed by it.
n
nWhen she woke up and saw the blood and the other red spots on the bed, she was overwhelmed by fear, horror, and heavy guilt towards her boyfriend. She had lost her purity, and this was a serious betrayal to her boyfriend. She was very sorry.
n
nShe collapsed on the bed and started to cry until her phone rang. When she saw the name on the phone, she cried even harder.
n
nHowever, the phone kept on ringing.
n
nXiao Lingyu had no idea how long it had passed before she finally reached for the phone with trembling hands. At that moment, she was fragile, and she needed comfort. She believed she could find that from her boyfriend.
n
nThe moment she picked up the phone, a man’s voice came from the other end. His voice was filled with concern and worry.
n
nHe asked anxiously, “Yu ‘Er, What’s wrong? Where are you now?”
n
nXiao Lingyu’s voice was hoarse from the crying. Tears still flowed down her eyes. But not to make her boyfriend worry, she wiped her tears and forced a smile. “Brother Ran, it’s okay, I’m fine!”
n
nBut the man kept on asking like he could sense something was wrong. “Yu ‘Er, your voice is hoarse. Have you been crying?”
n
nThe question broke the dam within Xiao Lingyu. She burst into tears again. No matter how hard her boyfriend comforted her, it was pointless.
n
nThe man didn’t hang up. After some time, Xiao Lingyu heard the man say, “Yu ‘Er, it’s okay. No matter what happens, I will always be by your side.”
n
nHearing this, Xiao Lingyu was heavily comforted. After hanging up, she decided to break up with Chen Ran. Her Brother Ran was too good of a man, and he deserved someone better than her. He shouldn’t be tied to a ruined girl for the rest of his life.
n
nAfter Xiao Lingyu packed up, she left the hotel and returned to the company. She planned to resign and then break up with Chen Ran. Then she would leave. However, Xiao Lingyu, in her past life, walked into a disaster at the company. It was a disaster that was meticulously planned.
n
n…
n
nThinking back, Xiao Lingyu had a cold smile on her face, but a dark light flashed in her eyes.
n
nIn her previous life, she was framed. But this time, she had returned so she would not make the same mistake.
n
nWhile she was thinking about what to do, Xiao Lingyu’s phone rang again. Her eyes flashed with disgust and hatred when she saw the caller Id.
n
nXiao Lingyu thought about it and answered the call.
n
n“Yu ‘Er, where are you now?” Chen Ran’s tone was filled with worry. “I went to your department, but they said you have not arrived. Did something happen?” It was clear that the man was digging for information.
n
nHearing the hypocrite, Xiao Lingyu felt a wave of disgust. She suppressed it and took a deep breath. Her voice was very calm as she said, “I’m fine. I encountered a mad dog. But I have already chased it away. I’ll be hurrying to the company now!”
n
nXiao Lingyu hung up without waiting for a response.
n
nChen Ran held the phone and frowned. He felt something was not right.
n
nBased on his understanding of Xiao Lingyu, he knew that she would be crying in despair after finding out what had happened to her. She would be filled with guilt towards him. However, from her tone, it sounded like she was perfectly fine.
n
nWith that thought, Chen Ran’s heart burned with anger. He gritted his teeth and cursed under his breath, “Xiao Lingyu, so you never cared about me after all!”
n
nThis meant that Xiao Lingyu had been sleeping around. It would explain why she was so unfazed by the trap they prepared for her.
n
nZhao Wenman, who sat on the couch, heard Chen Ran. Her eyes flashed, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly. She looked very proud and sarcastic.
n
nShe smiled and asked, “Look at your long face. What happened? Did the slut hang up on you again?”
n
nChen Ran said, “It’s not that. But she said she’d reach the company soon.”
n
nWhen Zhao Wenman heard that, she looked excited. She said with a smile, “Good, that’s very good. When the bitch reaches the company, she will know what hell looks like. I need to be there when she is exposed to have slept with a big-bellied, ugly middle-aged man for money! I have to see the look on her face!”
n
nShe could not wait to see Xiao Lingyu fall into the depths of hell. It would be so interesting. Zhao Wenman picked up an expensive phone and made a call. She ordered coldly, “Be prepared!”
n
nWhen she said that, Chen Ran’s expression changed. But it quickly returned to normal, and he looked at Zhao Wenman lovingly again.
n
n…
n
nXiao Lingyu came to the front door of the Huiqing Group and stopped. Her expression was indifferent, but her eyes were ice-cold. She clenched her hands tightly and looked at the company’s entrance. She said, “I’m here. The pair of scumbags humiliated me and ruined my past life. But this time, I can’t let them achieve that goal!”
n
nShe took a deep breath. As she was about to enter the door, she frowned and turned around. She saw a man sitting on the pavement.
n
nThe man had a handsome face and a muscular figure. He was so much better than Chen Ran. But his clothes were dirty.
n
nXiao Lingyu thought about it and walked over. She uttered, “Sir, can you do me a favor? After it’s over, I’ll give you two thousand RMB!”
n
nTwo thousand was more than half of Xiao Lingyu’s monthly salary. She had always been frugal, and this was the first time she spent so much in a single transaction.
n
nHowever, this time, she’d make sure it was money well spent.
n
nYan Siming looked at the woman who walked over. He was baffled hearing what she said. He looked around and then pointed at himself. He asked with confusion, “Pretty lady, you’re talking to me?”
n
nXiao Lingyu said, “If not, am I talking to air? You’re the only one sitting here!”
n
nYan Siming was amused. ‘This girl has an interesting personality. Even when she’s asking for a favor, her tone is sharp. No woman at City Z dares to talk to me like that.’
n
nHe raised his eyebrows and asked, “Do you know who I am?”
n
n“Your face is not on the money, so how would I know who you are!” Xiao Lingyu said, “I’m very pressed for time. Yes, or no?”
n
nYan Siming was stunned. He shrugged and asked, “Sure, but what… can I do for you?”
n
n“Pretend you just had a one-night stand with me!”
n
n“Huh?!”
