“Boss Mo, don’t be deceived by her. Yesterday, I saw her enter a room with many men. I even heard people say...say that she had made an appointment with them because she wanted to...play with together with them.” Thinking herself clever, An ZiYi waited for the two to break into a large argument and for Mo WenHan to express his thanks for her.
She didn’t expect for her words to be met with a scalding hot cup of tea being thrown at her stomach.
Her exposed skin immediately turned red and swollen. “AH!” Covering her stomach, An ZiYi recoiled back. If Le ChenXi didn’t hold her, she would have fallen onto the floor.
Mo WenHan’s face was dark, causing the temperature around him to decrease. Even the diners sitting further away could tell that this Big Boss was angry. But who was he angry at? They quietly shifted in their seats.
Everyone had a tacit understanding: in case a fight was going to occur, they were going to run away. No one was willing to get involved in this kind of thing.
“Only an idiot like Le ChenXi would want a trash like you. You still try to tempt me? You even dare slander my madam? I know very well where my madam was last night. Guan Xiao, help me wash this trash’s dirty mouth.” The anger in his heart grew and grew. XunMi had good luck so was sent into his room. This woman deserved to die!
XunMi stood up, lightly patting Mo WenHan’s shoulder and shaking her head with a smile. “This young lady, you say that you saw me enter a room with many men last night, and even heard their conversation. Perhaps you mistook another woman for me. However, I am curious about one thing: how would you have recognized me? I just came back a couple of days ago, we shouldn’t have met before. Le family also doesn’t have information on me, and there shouldn’t be any pictures of me online either. Am I just that famous?” She tapped her chin.
“Oh, don’t just say that it’s because Le ChenXi had called my name earlier. Your reaction earlier said differently. Does that mean you are purposely trying to frame me? That’s why you purposely followed me and looked for an opportunity to incite distrust between me and Han ge.”
Although they were both wearing a long white dress, her 170cm height gave her an added elegance that An ZiYi didn’t have.
On her pretty face, her peach blossom eyes arched up, emitting a sharpness that would pressure those on the receiving end of her gaze.
Standing at Mo WenHan’s side, she didn’t seem to be pressed down by his formidable atmosphere. Instead, it was like they were mixed together, as if they were always meant to belong in the same harmonious picture frame.
Meanwhile, the interrogated An ZiYi was panicking, her eyes darting right and left. Her white dress made her look weak and spiritless.
If An ZiYi was alone, everyone might think that she was pitiful. But when a weak woman stood next to a woman with grace, both wearing a similar costume, the latter would be more eye-catching.
For men, a more aloof woman would be more able to raise their natural desire to conquer.
“XunMi, ZiYi definitely wouldn’t have done it intentionally. How could you be so imperiously assumptive.” Le ChenXi couldn’t stand it anymore and spoke up for An ZiYi.
XunMi carelessly glanced over, laughing coldly, “Le ChenXi, you must remember. It wasn’t that you rejected me. Rather, I wasn’t interested in you. You were just one step ahead of me, rejecting the marriage while I was still abroad. Did you really think that you were the most outstanding man under the heavens? Or did you believe that you were handsome to the point that everyone should like you?” She disdainfully looked the him up and down.
“Tsk, you’re just a immature child. That’s not sufficient enough for me to pay you any attention. Go back and tell your father that however big of a mess you’ve caused for my family, I’ll be returning it back to him twofold. That includes this commoner girl of yours’ attempt to scheme against me. Don’t think that just because Le family picked up a girl that knew a thing or two about gemstone betting so now you can surpass Xun family. Hehe...you couldn’t even compare.” In her eyes, there was no difference between commonpeople and the rich.
But this woman was truly too shameless. Thus, she can only hit her in her Achilles’ heel.
“Right, I heard Miss An ZiYi’s loyal friend Miss Xie Tian Tian was taken to the police station due to a good friend’s betrayal. As for who that friend is, would Miss An like to know? This morning, Miss Xie had revealed a lot of secrets in public, including the fact that Miss An had participated in their gatherings.” Her lips curved up into a smile that could make viewers terrified.
An ZiYi paled, her heart shaking with dread. Xie Tian Tian and her group were arrested this morning. However, her original plan had included XunMi being arrested with them.
That’s why she was so surprised seeing XunMi here now. Her words just now made her even more alarmed. What exactly did Xie Tian Tian say?
No, she absolutely cannot let Le family know. She hadn’t made connections with Mo WenHan yet so she can only cling onto Le family.
“What are you saying? I don’t understand. ChenXi, let’s go.” Grabbing Le ChenXi’s hand, she took unsteady steps towards the exit.
The silently listening crowd also quickly lowered their heads and returned to eating their meal. In their hearts, they were gossiping about the melodrama they had heard. That An ZiYi sure was suspicious. Of course: as a commoner girl who was able to climb up the social ladder and gain the elder of Le family’s approval, how could she be simple?
If they saw that family in the future, it would be best to just walk around them. Boss Mo obviously was Xun family’s supporter. Moreover, Miss Xun, no, Madam Mo had public stated her feelings.
“Guan Xiao.” Mo WenHan called out. Guan Xiao, who was preparing to quietly leave, immediately deflated.
“Yes, boss. I’ll go do it immediately.” Hehe, he knew that his boss was still thinking about making sure that woman had her mouth washed clean.
Aiya, forget it. What else can he do as a high-standard assistant. He should just go do it.
“Have Qiao Yuan thoroughly investigate last night’s situation. Also, investigate everything that that woman did in the past, don’t even miss a single drop.”
“Yes,” Guan Xiao put down the car keys and quickly left.
The two people left behind didn’t say much afterwards, only beginning their warm and comfortable meal.
In the afternoon, Mo WenHan dropped her off at Lu MoXin’s house, only heading back to the office after making plans to pick her up later.
...
When Le ChenXi brought An ZiYi back to the Le house, Le’s family head Le ZhengTian sat in the main hall. He was obviously waiting for him, and he was obviously in a bad mood.
Seeing the two enter, the walking stick in his hands slammed down onto the ground.
“It’s all because of this fox temptress! If not for you, how could Le family meet with such troubles! I’m going to make you regret ever delusionally thinking of climbing into my son’s bed!”
