Chapter 19: Shoot Them Down

Translator: Lonelytree

Lin Xiangyu’s face paled instantly being questioned by Xiao Lingyu. Lin Xiangyu’s voice weakened, and the powerful aura she generated earlier disappeared. She stuttered, “But… that was the truth. I was having dinner at the hotel and saw you… with a man. So… I stayed to look after you.”

Xiao Lingyu chuckled mirthlessly, “Lin Xiangyu, can you hear yourself? The Marriott Hotel is a five-star hotel, and the minimum expense is not low. You’re telling me you were having dinner there with your current salary?”

Lin Xiangyu’s face turned red, but she retorted, “If you can afford it, why can’t I? It’s one thousand RMB a meal, I decided to splurge on myself yesterday night!” Lin Xiangyu’s monthly salary was only several thousand, but obviously, she didn’t pay for her meal yesterday night.

Xiao Lingyu shook her head. “Lin Xiangyu, you’re a clever person, so why are you acting so dumb? I already said it was Manager Li who invited me to join him, so I wasn’t paying the tab. What about you? Furthermore, if you’re as righteous as you paint yourself out to be, why didn’t you jump out to accuse me when you saw me being carried away by that man? You could have stopped him or called Chen Ran to catch me red-handed.” Xiao Lingyu paused to glance at Zhao Wenman and Chen Ran. “But you didn’t. Instead, you hid in the corner and took those pictures. Once you arrived at the company this office, you shared the pictures with everyone, didn’t you?”

“How did you know?” Lin Xiangyu blurted out the words before she could stop herself. Her eyes widened, and then she immediately tried to take back her words. “I mean… You’re lying!”

However, her explanation was weak. Everyone had heard her clearly. Most were shocked by the truth. In fact, some had been wondering why Lin Xiangyu had access to these pictures in the first place. So it was part of the set-up.

Xiao Lingyu pressed, “Lin Xiangyu, now you know why you need to apologize to me? I don’t even want to pursue what you’ve done to me in the past. But you have ganged up with others to ruin my name and destroy me. I will never forgive that!”

Xiao Lingyu’s eyes cut through Chen Ran and Zhao Wenman. She eventually settled on Zhao Wenman, “Miss Zhao, you like Chen Ran, so you seduce him. I have nothing to say since you managed to get him to betray his 10-years running girlfriend. I’ll accept my loss. But you could have just told me. I would be glad to surrender Chen Ran to you. In fact, I’d even leave City Z as you wished. You can enjoy couple-time with Chen Ran, and I wouldn’t have cared.”

Xiao Lingyu paused before continuing with sharp hatred, “So Zhao Wenman, why did you choose the vicious path? After you stole my boyfriend, why couldn’t you just let me be? Why did you have to ensure that I lost my life and reputation? Why did you have to do that? Can you tell me why?”

This had been bothering Xiao Lingyu for two lifetimes. She couldn’t understand Zhao Wenman. She had already snatched Chen Ran away. They even had a secret engagement, so why did Zhao Wenman still come after her?

Zhao Wenman snickered and said, “Because even when Chen Ran is with me, he still loves you. So I need to destroy you. I, Zhao Wenman, am the only woman that can live inside his heart.”

At that moment, the proud lady revealed a rare bitter smile. She said self-deprecatingly. “I know that Chen Ran says he likes me and agrees to marry me, but he only has you in his heart. Whenever we have sex, he will call out your name. How can I allow my man to love another woman? Therefore, I need to find a way to evict you from his heart.”

At this point, she looked at Xiao Lingyu with a mocking expression and continued, “I heard from Chen Ran that even though you two have been in love for ten years, you two never went beyond touching hands. You haven’t even kissed, let alone had sex. It was because you have an agreement to preserve your purity for the wedding night.”

Then it dawned on Xiao Lingyu.

“So you planned to ruin my purity so Chen Ran wouldn’t be so hung up on me anymore?” Xiao Lingyu questioned.

Zhao Wenman didn’t deny it. “That’s right!”

Xiao Lingyu was overwhelmed by fury. She walked forward and rewarded Zhao Wenman with two great slaps. She scolded loudly, “Zhao Wenman, you evil witch! You wanted to destroy me for such frivolous reasons?”

The two slaps did nothing to quench the anger within Xiao Lingyu. Because of her fancy, Zhao Wenman had kick-started a chain event that ended in Xiao Tong’s life. Xiao Lingyu was consumed by the despair and the pain from her previous life. She wanted Zhao Wenman to pay for Xiao Tong’s death.

Xiao Lingyu kicked at Zhao Wenman’s calf. She grabbed her bag to hit Zhao Wenman. She was acting crazy.

The crowd was dumbfounded.

A cornered rabbit would fight back.

Xiao Lingyu was always soft and weak. No one really noticed her. So this came as a surprise to many people.

Zhao Wenman didn’t expect this either. The blows were already coming before she could shield herself. She was slapped twice and then kicked. Before she could call out in pain, another thud landed on her head.

Zhao Wenman shielded her head and shouted, “Xiao Lingyu, have you lost your mind?”

Xiao Lingyu didn’t stop hitting. “Yes, I have lost my mind. All thanks to you!”

Then she grabbed Zhao Wenman’s long hair.

Zhao Wenman couldn’t do anything since Xiao Lingyu had a firm grasp on her hair. She tried to retaliate, but she was no match for Xiao Lingyu, who was possessed by grief.

Zhao Wenman’s shrill screams echoed in the hall. She cursed. “Xiao Lingyu, you lunatic, let go of me now! Help me, come and pull this bitch away!”

The crowd looked at each other in dismay. A few men hesitated before they moved to help Zhao Wenman. After all, Zhao Wenman was still their chairman’s daughter.

As they made their first move, they heard a sudden cough.

The men looked over and immediately pulled back.
