Chapter 276: Desperate Plead-I

Lin Chang Lu pulled an awkward smile her eyes falling short to show her alarmed eyes that Xiao Yun overthrow her plan again. "It was a very good gift, Xiao Yun I didn't know you gifted the bracelet."

"That's not problem I want to thank you for encouraging me to present my gift to grandmother and grandfather." She walked and held her eyes for her words to come with a gentle smile.

"That's nothing. I know it must have taken a lot of courage for you to present something in front of the audience but you should get use to it quickly." Although Xiao Yun gave a gentle tone, Lin Chang Lu knew she was being sarcastic about it. "But I didn't know that you are the CEO of Azure, you should have told me as a friend or perhaps you didn't think of me as one?" She pushed the blame to Xiao Yun. Wang Yongyi and Wang Yan Zhi was still standing near them and Lin Chang Lu can't make her fame dropped even more after before.

"Are you blaming me?" Xiao Yun sloped her brows in a gloom. "I don't really know much about companies and even if I am the CEO of Azure I don't think it is something I have to say to everyone. Are you angry? Is it because you are the CEO of Golden Tree?" Xiao Yun slowly pushed her to the tip of ice berg.

"That's right I remember Lin Chang Lu was the one who planned for Azure's model to be involve in a large scandal didn't she?" The guest woman spoke aloud in the quiet hall for her voice to echo over the room. Lin Chang Lu shifted her eyes and instantly glared at the woman.

"Of course not, I'm just worried that you didn't tell me because our companies are rival. But I believe our rivalry is bellow our friendship, right?" Lin Chang Lu looked down on her hand Xiao Yun held and hurriedly want to wash her dirty hands after touching her.

"Of course! That's right, Azure was also invited to the Spring Fashion Competition, I'm still new in the field, please take care of me."

"I'm not that good of a teacher but if it's you who is studying under me, I'm sure you will get a hold of it fast." Lin Chang Lu pulled her best for a smile which fell when she heard Xiao Yun whispering. "Last time you were able to push the blame to Director Mo Chang Lu but do you think it could happen again for the second time?" She gave a wicked smile only for Lin Chang Lu to see. Xiao Yun still held her anger to Lin Chang Lu who had dragged her friend to a scandal and pushed the blame wholly on Director Mo.

"You bitch." Lin Chang Lu cursed.

"Did you see my picture in front of your company? Do you want to guess who was I hugging in that picture?" Lin Chang Lu drew her brows suspecting she was up to something and heard Xiao Yun whispering aloud, "He is Li Lei."

Lin Chang Lu eyes widened in an instance her expression twisted in jealousy and she swatted Xiao Yun's hand harshly for the room to fill with a sound of a loud slap.

"You!" She yelled out of control.

Wang Yan Zhi was surprised by the anger shown by Lin Chang Lu who always kept her calm. "What happen, Xiao Yun?" She asked to see Xiao Yun palm turning bright red.

"It's nothing Grandmother." Xiao Yun gave a smile and everyone near them could only frown at Lin Chang Lu.

"I," Lin Chang Lu tried to reason when Wang Yan Zhi shifted her eyes at her with a hint of disappointment that stopped her from talking.

She hadn't heard well what they were saying but after Xiao Yun spoke of Golden Tree, Lin Chang Lu face turned angry where everyone suspected she had vented her anger on Xiao Yun the CEO of Azure. "Chang Lu, calm down we can talk everything together." Wang Yan Zhi took Xiao Yun's palm to spoke in worry, "Xiao Yun does it hurt? It doesn't look like there is a scratch. Chang Lu, you should go and calm yourself."

"Excuse me," Lin Chang Lu said and glared at Xiao Yun in contempt as she turned her face and marched away from the place.

Wang Yan Zhi helped Xiao Yun with a cold compress and after Wang Yan Zhi treated her hand she replied to a few questions gave by Wang Feng Yi who seemed to be very impressed by how her company work, Wang Li Lei and Xiao Yun walked again around the halls greeting the guests again. Before she knew it, Lin Chang Lu had disappeared, taking a step back in panic as the situation had spiraled out of her consideration.

"Li Lei, how do you know that the bracelets I brought will worth more than Chang Lu's?" Xiao Yun asked after they greeted a couple of guests.

Wang Li Lei shifted his gaze down and heard her speaking again. "You were the one who told Zi Gong of the mall, right? Do you guess that sooner or later I will come to the shop?" She remembered Zi Gong saying the shops that Wang Li Lei recommended. Knowing her man, he wouldn't do anything useless.

"Yes." He replied, a smile adding at the edge of his words. "The store is very famous, I only guessed that you will come there even without my words."

"Then how do you know the priceless gift wasn't the rare items of the shop buy the jade carvings?"

"I guessed. The shop giving free items were too much suspicious, especially since no one could find one, I suspected the owner to have another idea by letting the news travel." She looked at him in awe. It was all only his guesses?

"Then, how do you know I could acquire one?" She gave her last question. At the timer Elder Liu didn't know who she was, proving that Wang Li Lei didn't lend her a hand in this matter.

"Because I believe you." His words were short but it left an impactful smile bouncing over her face. "Only that?"

"Only that." He knew that unlike Lin Chang Lu, Xiao Yun didn't view others by their look or words. She was someone who judge other by her own eyes. Elder Liu's purpose in making the amusement in his shop was none other than to see whether there were still a good person out there and Xiao Yun was one of them. He had thought the gift filled with sincerity would make his grandparents acknowledge her but unexpectedly it also protected her. Xiao Yu giggled, leaning her head she felt proud of her smart fiancé.
