What followed next goes without saying.

Although Su Meimei was in a tragic state, Qiao Lian felt no sympathy for her.

Looking down, she turned around and walked back to her own office.

Shi Nianyao followed her, groveling, “What do you think will happen now?”

“What will happen?” Qiao Lian said calmly, “Su Meimei will probably be fired. And we won’t have to deal with her anymore.”

Shi Nianyao nodded enthusiastically. “It serves her right!”

The matter was quickly resolved. Liu Zhixing owed his successful career to his wife, and of course he would do anything to appease her. Hence he fired Su Meimei and had her leave immediately, without even giving her time to pack and retrieve her belongings.

As to her threats of suing them, Liu Zhixing said arrogantly, “Go ahead and sue us! At worst I’ll pay a compensation fee. We were both consenting adults. What has it got to do with my wife that you’re so low-down?”

Su Meimei was firmly escorted out of the office despite her violent objections, and even after being escorted out, she stood outside the agency shouting and yelling.

Whenever something came to mind, her eyes would light up and she would yell out to Liu Zhixing’s wife, “You think Liu Zhixing is clean? Let me tell you, I’m not his first affair, we have a worker by the name of Qiao Lian and both of them have something going on too. They slept together as well! Look at Qiao Lian, she looks like a vixen!”

As soon as she said this, Liu Zhixing’s wife immediately turned around and glared at Qiao Lian, who was already in her office.

Qiao Lian didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry.

This Su Meimei, she was rotten to the core!

Qiao Lian stood up immediately. “Su Meimei, are you mentally sick?”

Liu Zhixing quickly denied it. “Honey, that’s utter rubbish! Really, there’s no one else. Only this one. And I admit my mistake, honey, please forgive me!”

His wife frowned and moved her gaze from one person to the other back and forth, not knowing who to believe.

Su Meimei laughed scornfully. “Look at her, which man wouldn’t want her? It’s her! She had an affair with Liu Zhixing!”

Qiao Lian threw her hands up in defeat. This was crazy.

Shi Nianyao immediately spoke up, “This is funny. You’ve admitted that our Chief Editor Lian Lian is pretty? If she indeed had an affair with the managing editor, would you have stood a chance against her? She’s so pretty she could have any man she wants.”

At these words, Su Meimei was fuming. “Any man she wants? Well, then it depends which man would have her! Her brother’s a cripple and she needs a lot of money for medical treatments! Who would want a woman like that? The managing editor once even wanted to lend her two million dollars.”

Her face was swollen from the beating and was now hardly recognizable. But still, she was trying to take Qiao Lian down with her. She pointed at the people of Team One and insisted, “Ask them if you don’t believe me, they all know about it!”

Liu Zhixing’s wife glared at all of them fiercely.

Everyone looked down and no one uttered a word.

Although she had been fired, her aunt was their chief editor.

And even if her aunt wasn’t around today, she would find out afterwards if they said anything. No one was going to put themselves in a bad position.

“Su Meimei, stop making frivolous accusations!” Qiao Lian could no longer tolerate the unfounded accusations.

“Huh, you deny any relationship with the managing editor? Prove your innocence then! Prove that you’ve never slept with him!”

As soon as she said these words, a familiar male voice came from outside the doorway.

“I’m the evidence.”
