As she said that, the earlier scene came to her mind, provoking her once again. She took a step forwards with fury, grabbed Su Meimei’s hair and gave her another slap.

“Wh*re! Husband snatcher! I’ll teach you what seducing another woman’s man means! I’ll kill you!”

As she spoke, she punctuated her angry remarks by throwing punches at Su Meimei.

Su Meimei, on the other hand, was so confused she couldn’t react.

That woman was Liu Zhixing’s wife?

How was that possible?

Weren’t she and Liu Zhixing about to get married?

How on earth had she suddenly become a third party?

Not knowing why, she suddenly recalled how she had mocked Qiao Lian for being a third party and now…

As Su Meimei stood there stunned, the woman kicked her in the stomach. She bent in pain and cried, “Let me go! I don’t know, I don’t know…”

At this point, as if suddenly remembering something, she jumped and directed a clenched fist at the woman. “I’ll teach you a lesson! How dare you hit me?!”

However, before her punch could even land on the woman’s face, Liu Zhixing had reached out to grab her hand. He warned her in a low voice, “Su Meimei, don’t hit Xiao Li!”

With her hand now held by Liu Zhixing’s grip, it gave the women another opportunity to tightly slap her on the face.

This one was a vicious slap indeed, for the woman had used her nails to scratch her skin, leaving angry scratch marks at the same time.

Su Meimei had been beaten into a stupor by now. She lifted her leg to kick Liu Zhixing.

After his crotch was kicked, he keeled over in pain and could not stand upright. He joined the woman in beating up Su Meimei with anger.

No one in the crowd that had gathered dared to step forward and stop the brawl.

As Qiao Lian looked at all of this coldly, a sharp expression appeared on her face.

Shi Nianyao was astonished, to say the least.

Su Meimei was now like a fallen villain, beaten into a corner and unable to retaliate. She squatted there like a mad woman, scheming how she could defeat the other two.

But how could she stand up to the couple?

This was a complete… disaster.

Shi Nianyao whispered in Qiao Lian’s ear, “How did you know Liu Zhixing is married?”

They had no access to his personal details.

Furthermore, when Su Meimei had announced her relationship with Liu Zhixing in a big way, Liu Zhixing had never denied it. Hence everyone in the news agency had no idea he was married.

Qiao Lian lowered her gaze and said, “I once accidentally saw a man’s wedding ring in his office. Then when Su Meimei was bragging that they were going to get married and showed off her ring, I noticed that the ring was different to the one I saw in his office—they weren’t a pair. That was when I became suspicious. And on another occasion, I saw a few strands of hair on Liu Zhixing’s shirt, but they were short so they wouldn’t have been Su Meimei’s. So I became more certain.”

Shi Nianyao raised her thumb. “Brilliant!”

Quietly, without saying another word, Qiao Lian continued watching the scene in the room unfold.

Looking at Su Meimei, she was sure that Su Meimei had been cheated on by Liu Zhixing.

Objectively speaking, she was an innocent victim. The main player of this tragedy had really been Liu Zhixing.

That was the reason why she had held back all this time. She had even considered warning Su Meimei.

But what Su Meimei had done to her today had crossed the boundaries.

That was why she had asked for help from Shen Liangchuan to check Liu Zhixing’s background. Liu Zhixing had worked at other news agencies previously, and Shen Liangchuan was well connected with various news agencies. It hadn’t been at all difficult to get hold of Liu Zhixing’s wife’s number.
