“Liunian, where did you go last night? When the dinner ended, I couldn’t find you. You didn’t answer my calls. You scared me to death! Later, someone said that they saw you being helped away by Gao Youyi. That woman kept bullying you just because she joined the company earlier than you. Are you okay?”
“I… I’m fine…” Was spending the night with a man and not remembering much about it considered “fine”?
But then again, when she recalled the man in the hotel… Those passionate hugs… The intimate lovemaking moments… The glint of devilishness in his black eyes when they slightly curled up… Although she did not want to admit it, that man was such a good kisser that she could not resist at all and melted at his kisses!
“Why is your reply so reluctant? Did… something happen?”
Ji Liunian felt guilty. “I’m fine. I’m really fine.”
Liu Menghan acknowledged it faintly before saying in an indignant tone, “I think this matter isn’t over yet. Be careful. I’m afraid that woman has more tricks up her sleeve!”
“Got it.” Ji Liunian nodded.
After a moment of silence, Liu Menghan asked again, “Also, do you really plan to marry that man?”
Liu Menghan and Ji Liunian were college classmates. Ji Liunian joined the company through Liu Menghan who was the only person in the company to know Ji Liunian’s true identity.
“Yeah.” Ji Liunian replied calmly.
Liu Menghan immediately said indignantly, “But he’s too much! Have you seen yesterday’s newspaper? He got caught with that female celebrity in a hotel! Such news breaks every few days. Isn’t he afraid of breaking his d*ck? It’s not like you are left on the shelf—you’re beautiful. In terms of educational and family background, which part of you isn’t worthy of him? You guys are about to get married, but he’s still sleeping around so wantonly and openly. Clearly, he doesn’t give a d*mn about you! And you… you’re clearly the real deal, but you relegate yourself to such a lowly status! Hurry up and dump him before the wedding. Go and find a man a hundred times better than him! Let him regret it!”
Ji Liunian pinched the space between her eyebrows and her voice was a little hoarse. “You know my family’s situation. I don’t have any other way out. Besides…”
“Are you concerned about how they saved your family back then?” Liu Menghan interrupted her. “Even so, the things that he did all these years have exhausted the favor bank. What is he blaming you for? Does he still think that it’s your fault that woman went overseas?”
Ji Liunian was speechless. Liu Menghan said, “I really don’t understand. How are you worse than that woman? Is he blind? You’ve known him since you were young. That woman only spent a few years with him! Besides, it’s not your fault that woman left. Even if it wasn’t you, their family wouldn’t have accepted her! How could he…”
“Menghan,” Ji Liunian interrupted her. “Forget it. Let it go.”
“Then we’ll settle for the next best thing. Tit for tat—since he cheated on you, so can you!”
