Lin Xiangyu targeted Xiao Lingyu because they were from the same school. They interned in the same company and were accepted at the same time.
This meant that no matter where they went, people compared them. Be it at school or the company, Xiao Lingyu's result was better than Lin Xiangyu's. This was why Lin Xiangyu hated the other woman so much.
However, the main reason was actually Chen Ran. Lin Xiangyu loved Chen Ran when they were in school. She even confessed to Chen Ran, but she was rejected.
Xiao Lingyu did not know about this because she only had Chen Ran in her eyes and everything else was insignificant.
In her previous life, Xiao Lingyu was jumped on by Lin Xiangyu when she reached the company. The incident from the night before already shook her.
Xiao Lingyu kept explaining herself, but no one wanted to listen to her. In the end, it was this picture that sent her down into the abyss. Similarly, it was also Lin Xiangyu who produced this picture in her previous life.
At the time, Xiao Lingyu was on the verge of breaking down. She allowed herself to be rebuked and chastised.
However, this time, Xiao Lingyu was in control of herself. She would not be led down this doomed path again. She decided to change her fate since she was given a second chance. She needed to be better not only for herself but also for her future child. She would not allow her son's mother to carry such a shameful label this time!
When Lin Xiangyu showed the picture, the other people snapped back into their senses.
The women looked at Xiao Lingyu with naked sarcasm and contempt. 'Didn't she say she's not a prostitute? Then what about this picture? What could she say now?
'One shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Xiao Lingyu presents herself normally as a decent girl. But she is actually a perverted woman with no self-respect. She is a prostitute, and she will even take on the ugliest client for the sake of money.
'How despicable!'
However, most of these women had their thoughts colored by jealousy.
The men had a rather different reaction. Even though their expression was also filled with disdain, there was also an underlying trace of desire...
'Since Xiao Lingyu is willing to take on such an ugly man, she'd be more than happy to sell her service to normal men like us!' These men thought to themselves.
Yan Siming, standing beside Xiao Lingyu, had his eyes lit up. He had seen many beauties in his life. Xiao Lingyu could only be considered ordinary in his eyes.
However, what attracted him was the woman appeared to have a combination of purity and ruthlessness within her.
Yan Siming's lips curled into a smile to show interest in the woman. He captured the change in the crowd's attitude towards Xiao Lingyu as they moved from disdain to shock.
With his understanding of human nature, Yan Siming was sure this woman was not a person of easy virtue.
However, something still bothered him. Xiao Lingyu should only be a small worker at this company. She was insignificant, so why was the whole company that hostile toward her? Was there a story behind it?
Yan Siming wanted to know how the woman would deal with this so-called new evidence. He was quite intrigued.
Xiao Lingyu did not deny anything. Instead, she looked at Lin Xiangyu with a faint smile on her face. "Lin Xiangyu, were you following me? Otherwise, why do you have so many photos of me on your phone?"
Lin Xiangyu had the reply ready. She happened to be at the hotel when she bumped into this atrocity. However, Xiao Lingyu didn't give her a chance to say her piece. "Oh, I know. You must be jealous of me. I heard from Chen Ran that you confessed to him."
Lin Xiangyu's face immediately paled as soon as Xiao Lingyu revealed this piece of information. The others looked at Lin Xiangyu with a strange expressions.
Lin Xiangyu liked Manager Chen?
They really did not know that.
Lin Xiangyu panicked and tried to explain herself, "You... you're talking nonsense!"
She did like Manager Chen, but that couldn't be exposed because she knew that the chairman's daughter also liked Manager Chen. That woman, Zhao Wenman, was extremely jealous and ruthless. If Zhao Wenman found out Lin Xiangyu liked Manager Chen, her life would be over!
Xiao Lingyu chuckled, "New Island Cafe 101. Does that ring any bell?"
As soon as Xiao Lingyu said that, Lin Xiangyu's pupils constricted. Her slightly pale face turned even paler, and she could not help but take half a step back.
Everyone noticed her abnormal behavior.
Lin Xiangyu's eyes darted about in fear. When she finally noticed the others staring at her, she quickly composed herself. She suppressed the panic in her heart and shouted back, "I don't know what you mean! Xiao Lingyu, don't change the topic! You've prostituted yourself to another man. How can you face Manager Chen? Everyone knows how good Manager Chen is to you. But you cheated on him with an ugly man. Manager Chen is so handsome. He must be blind to love someone like you!"
Lin Xiangyu became more agitated. She continued to curse, "Who are you to be jealous of Manager Chen? I did have a cup of coffee with him. But we're colleagues. How can you slander our names like that?"
Lin Xiangyu's words were unpleasant, but Xiao Lingyu only smiled.
Instead of getting angry, Xiao Lingyu chuckled, "It seems like I've touched on a sore spot. Furthermore, I didn't mention anything about a coffee date between you and Manager Chen. I have to say... Your guilt is showing."
Xiao Lingyu didn't wait for Lin Xiangyu to reply. Xiao Lingyu's expression turned up with disgust. "Besides, if you fancy the jerk that much, I'll give him to you. How about that?"
At that moment, Chen Ran and Zhao Wenman walked out of the elevator. They heard Xiao Lingyu's last sentence.
