Chapter 38: Totally Depending on Acting
Proofread by Peter Gong
Yuexi says gratefully, “Thanks to your information this time, otherwise I wouldn’t have succeeded so easily.” “It’s a win-win. My boss almost asks me to steal the client through espionage. Yet, you easily screw up their business, and I must thank you for that. ”
They hang up the phone after exchanging a few more words. Yuexi feels sore all over her body, as if she were ran over by a car. The image of Li Fengjue suddenly occurs to her mind. And when Yuexi recalls what happened in the car, she blushes.
She quickly pats herself on the face and asks herself, “Yuexi, why do you suddenly think of that? You must be crazy enough to think about that man!” However, that night, she tosses and turns, failing to fall asleep. The next day, she drags her heavy body to the company, with dark circles under her eyes.
As soon as she walks into the company, she sees a lot of people sneaking around and all whispering. What happened last night between Xu Tianyun and Lin Chuchu makes headlines. Yuexi feels a little bit sorry for Lin Chuchu. After all, she is innocent.
“Maybe I will find a chance to say sorry to her …” she mutters, but turns around to see Lin Chuchu. Speaking of the devil! She still wears that tight dress to show off her body and doesn’t seem depressed at all. Instead, she still curls up her mouth. She seems to be feeling good.
Yuexi looks at her, shockingly. When Lin Chuchu comes near, she forces a an awkward smile and says, “You must feel uncomfortable due to what happened. Actually, yesterday …” “Yesterday? I have to thank you for what happened yesterday. How could I have accomplished my mission if it weren’t for you? ”
She doesn’t seem to be faking it at all. Yuexi feels a little bit guilty, smirking a few times, “I … I didn’t seem to do anything …” However, Lin Chuchu smiles mysteriously and whispers to her ear, “Actually, I put something in my lipstick yesterday. As long as a man kissed upon it, it would make him lose control. I just never thought that Master Xu was that horny. After all, it was in front of so many people … ”
With a sweet smile on her face, later, she says with gratitude, “Thank you for giving him to me last night, otherwise my plan wouldn’t have been so smooth. Although the photos are a bit ungraceful, but after tons of media reports, it is absolutely impossible for him to escape from me!” Looking at Lin Chuchu’s cocky look, Yuexi laughs and finally feels relieved.
Since Lin Chuchu thinks about it this way, Yuexi doesn’t have to blame herself. In a way, she just helps Lin Chuchu to get what she wants. “You have to hurry up. After all, such a rich man like Master Li is so hard to find.” Lin Chuchu blinks her eyes at Yuexi. Yuexi hurriedly waves her hand and says, “We are not in that kind of relationship …”
“Everyone knows about you two, so, there is no need to cover up. To put it bluntly, the company’s female public relations usually rely on selling their bodies to gain benefits. Now that you have met the company president, you will never have to work hard again.” There is a proud smile on Lin Chuchu’s face. Yuexi doesn’t want to burst her bubble, but she still has something to say, “But I heard that Master Xu seems to be already married …”
Upon hearing this, Lin Chuchu stares at her with her wide eyes, as if she just heard a joke. “Don’t you want to marry Master Li? Don’t even think about it. Men can’t be faithful, let alone rich men. Being a mistress sounds ungraceful, but who really cares about reputation when one can always attain more money?”
Yuexi quickly returns to her seat to work after making a few causal remarks. In fact, she feels guilty, due to her unspeakable relationship with Li Fengjue. Judging it from no matter what perspective, she just looks like a mistress to him. As if these two were making a business, only taking what they need from each other.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Though Yuexi is upset all morning, she still pays attention to the stocks of Xu Company. Two days later, Chen Ying calls and says, “This incident makes the Xu House suffer. Yue Xi, you really did something!” The price of Xu House’s stock declines dramatically, almost to the bottom. While Chen Ying’s company has gained a lot from Tianyun’s scandal. So, she seems really happy.
Yuexi also feels happy from the bottom of her heart. The higher Xu House climbs, the harder they will fall! So, she plans to go grocery shopping, mainly for some snacks to pamper herself. However, as soon as she reaches the gate of her house, she sees a car parked in front of it. Yuexi frowns and doesn’t know to feel about it. Suddenly, two black bodyguards jump off from the car to subdue her. The bag in her hand falls to the ground.
“Ah! You let go of me! Who are you?” The two men in black do not respond to the shouts of Yuexi, only carrying her to the car and pressing her hard to the ground. A man gets out of the car and stops in front of Yuexi. She notices his shiny shoes.
Her hair gets pulled the moment she looks up. “Ah! Master Xu?” “Bitch, you set me up!” His handsome face suddenly turns fierce and his eyes manifest anger. Yuexi’s is scared on the inside, but she pretends to be calm and says, “I don’t know what you mean. How can I set you up?”
Xu Tianyun looks vicious, pulls her hair, and says angrily, “Oh, do you think I’m that stupid? I only lost control after drinking the wine you brought to me. Is there anyone else who can drug me? “He lets go of his hand in anger, with Yuexi’s body falling to the ground.
“I did some research on you. It turns out that you are Li Fengjue’s wife! How dare you try to seduce me, then drug me. Do you seek death?” Upon hearing this, innocent tears stream down Yuexi’s face.
She sobs and says, “Since you has investigated me, you should know that I have divorced once. How can Li Fengjue lay his eyes on me? He just uses me and takes advantages of me. I’m nobody. The only thing I can do is be obedient. How dare I to offend you? ”
The more she says and the harder she cries. Tears drop as if they were falling from a broken pearl necklace. He panics for a little while. Xu Tianyun rarely sees a woman crying, especially the woman he is interested in. He frowns, then says, “But I was indeed drugged by someone. Who else can it be?” Hearing here, Yuexi continues to pretend feeling wronged and cries even more louder, “I was also drugged that day … if I really wanted to hurt you, I could leave after drugging you, but … due to the effect of the drug … I was …”
