Deal with Lin Xiaoyou
Originally, Ning Muqing invited Leng Xiaoyao to have a meal at her home because their parents also wanted to personally thank Leng Xiaoyao. However, Leng Xiaoyao didn’t want to go, so they dined outside instead.
Was it a coincidence or enemies meeting again?
Ning Muqing and Ning Guanjie unexpectedly saw Lin Xiaoyou in the restaurant where they were having a meal.
Lin Xiaoyou was Ning Muqing’s former friend who was fired for betraying her along with Wang Pengyu.
At this moment, Lin Xiaoyou was intimately holding the wrist of a man, looking very pleased with herself. It seemed that Wang Pengyu’s death had not affected her at all.
Indeed, Lin Xiaoyou didn’t really like Wang Pengyu. She only deliberately took him away from Ning Muqing out of jealousy.
Therefore, she didn’t feel sad at all about Wang Pengyu’s death.
At most, she felt a little scared thinking that the man she had slept with was dead.
Although Ning Muqing had fired Lin Xiaoyou after knowing that she and Wang Pengyu had betrayed her, she didn’t do anything else to her.
It wasn’t because she didn’t hate her or was willing to let it go, but because of their past friendship.
If they didn’t meet again, or if she was sad and upset because of Wang Pengyu’s death when they met again, she wouldn’t be cruel enough to rub salt in her wound.
However! Lin Xiaoyou not only didn’t feel sad about Wang Pengyu’s death, but had also turned around and looked very pleased with herself while holding the hand of another man. It aroused Ning Muqing’s hatred and sense of injustice.
It made her feel that Lin Xiaoyou didn’t betray her because she loved Wang Pengyu, but because she was targeting her.
Therefore, suddenly, Ning Muqing didn’t want to let Lin Xiaoyou off the hook.
Ning Muqing walked directly to Lin Xiaoyou. With a vague smile, she pretended to be friendly as she greeted her. “Hi, Xiaoyou, what a coincidence! Who is this?”
When Lin Xiaoyou saw Ning Muqing, she instinctively let go of the man’s hand. Her expression flashed with panic, and she got nervous in an instant. She was afraid that Ning Muqing would reveal her secrets.
The man didn’t think much of it when Lin Xiaoyou suddenly let go of his hand. He thought that she was just embarrassed. Before Lin Xiaoyou said anything again, he opened his mouth first. “Hello, I’m Xiaoyou’s boyfriend, Zhang Hao.”
“What? Boyfriend?” Hearing that, Ning Muqing looked surprised. “When did this happen? Xiaoyou, aren’t you with Wang Pengyu? How come you have a boyfriend? Or did you find another boyfriend after he died the day before yesterday? That’s too fast!”
Ning Muqing didn’t hesitate to embarrass Lin Xiaoyou at all because she wanted to deliberately expose Lin Xiaoyou’s secret.
However, if this man didn’t mind, then it wouldn’t cause anything to happen.
Zhang Hao was obviously surprised.
What? Lin Xiaoyou was with another man and that man died the day before yesterday?
However, he had been with Lin Xiaoyou for a month!
Zhang Hao didn’t jump to conclusions immediately. Instead, he looked at Lin Xiaoyou with a puzzled expression, wanting an explanation from her.
“Ning Muqing, don’t be ridiculous! Wang Pengyu was your boyfriend. Everyone knows that. Why are you saying that I’m with him? What’s your intention?” Lin Xiaoyou shouted loudly, as if the louder her voice was, the more it could prove that she was wrongly accused.
When Zhang Hao heard that, he also thought that Ning Muqing was deliberately causing trouble. Therefore, his eyes towards her became colder.
However, he ignored the obvious tremble and lack of confidence in Lin Xiaoyou’s voice.
When Lin Xiaoyou shouted like that, it attracted many people to watch.
Not understanding the situation for the time being, they listened to Lin Xiaoyou’s words and began to feel disgusted with Ning Muqing.
“Yeah! Wang Pengyu used to be my boyfriend, but I found out last week that you had been secretly seeing each other for almost a year. After I found out, I didn’t seek revenge on you, and instead let you be together. I never thought that you would…”
Ning Muqing hesitated to finish, with an expression of being unable to express everything in words.
“Ning Muqing, shut up!” Lin Xiaoyou panicked and rebuked, afraid that her boyfriend would believe it. She immediately explained. “Zhang Hao, don’t believe her. She’s talking nonsense. Wang Pengyu liked me, but I don’t like him. Ning Muqing is just jealous and is saying ridiculous things about me.”
Although Lin Xiaoyou explained that it wasn’t true, her panicked emotions, evasive gaze, and lack of confidence revealed her guilt.
Zhang Hao didn’t really believe Ning Muqing because he didn’t know her and naturally couldn’t trust someone he didn’t know.
However, Lin Xiaoyou’s reaction instantly shattered his doubts about Ning Muqing and his trust in Lin Xiaoyou. He was angry that Lin Xiaoyou was such a person who lied to him…
“Jealous of you? What is there for me to be jealous of? My family background is better than yours, and I look better than you. What do I need to be jealous of you for? Isn’t it because I’m more self-loving and you’re more promiscuous that you easily stole Wang Pengyu? Otherwise, would he let go of a rich girl and go for an ordinary woman like you?” Ning Muqing sneered.
Right! Since Ning Muqing’s family background was better than hers and she was also prettier than her, what was there for Ning Muqing to be jealous of?
Most men who weren’t dumb would choose a woman who had a better background and looks!
However, some men couldn’t control their desire and were prone to doing inappropriate things.
“You…” As soon as those things were mentioned, Lin Xiaoyou’s expression couldn’t help showing jealousy, and it was a kind of twisted jealousy.
“Lin Xiaoyou, I wanted to trust you at first, but your reaction is just trying to cover up. How can you make me believe you?” Zhang Hao asked angrily.
Even the onlookers had to suspect that Lin Xiaoyou was exactly what Ning Muqing said, and everyone looked at Lin Xiaoyou with different feelings.
“No, it’s not like that. It’s not true.” Lin Xiaoyou wanted to explain, but she couldn’t explain it, because it was all true.
“So what’s the truth?” Although he believed Ning Muqing’s words, he still needed an explanation from Lin Xiaoyou.
However, Lin Xiaoyou opened her mouth, but didn’t know how to explain. It happened too suddenly. How could she organize her words?
In Zhang Hao’s eyes, Lin Xiaoyou’s reaction was an admission of guilt. He became even angrier and said, “Lin Xiaoyou, you terrify me. It’s over between us!”
After that, Zhang Hao turned around and left.
“Zhang Hao!” Lin Xiaoyou panicked and immediately went to grab him, but Zhang Hao pushed her away, almost causing Lin Xiaoyou to fall.
