Ye Lingxiao’s eyes gradually turned cold, making people shudder.
“How is this despicable? Don’t forget that you still owe me a debt. If I want it back now, you won’t be able to make up for it even if you sell all the companies under your name.”
He was referring to Xinran Media.
Currently, the sum of money that she could fork out from both companies did not exceed 15 million.
Ye Lingxiao’s heart ached as he looked at the woman whose eyes were red and filled with hatred.
Since when did he have to resort to such a clumsy method to leave someone behind?
He endured the last bit of pain and said in a low voice, “Since you understand, you should know what to do.”
Ye Lingxiao forced himself to leave, leaving Lin Wanmeng standing there with a faint smile on her face.
Lin Bo did not bring Shi Qiuqiu out.
Recently, she had been ordered to stay at home and was already bored to death. She quietly followed the car from home.
Before she could leave the parking lot, she saw Ye Lingxiao staggering and frowning as if he was uncomfortable.
She recognized Ye Lingxiao and quickly went up to him.
“Lingxiao, what’s wrong?”
Although she was a member of the Bai family, Bai Yamo was still biased towards Ye Lingxiao. Seeing that Ye Lingxiao was unwell, she left the Bai family and rushed over.
She was shocked to see Ye Lingxiao in so much pain.
Back then, when Ye Lingxiao’s parents passed away, Old Madam Ye struggled to hold on. In order to prevent Old Madam Ye from overworking herself, Ye Lingxiao worked tirelessly. There was actually an accident where he was hospitalized.
Ever since then, Ye Lingxiao had this problem, but it had not happened for a long time. What was going on today?
Bai Yamo subconsciously felt that this had something to do with Lin Wanmeng.
She helped Ye Lingxiao up and rested in the car.
Shi Qiuqiu had a flash of inspiration. She turned on her phone and took a photo, just in time to capture the scene of the two of them ’embracing’ affectionately.
Shi Qiuqiu originally wanted to post this photo online, but she was afraid of the Ye Corporation’s revenge. After thinking about it, she remembered the Lin Corporation’s losses and suddenly thought of a good idea.
Shen Yusong had always been a persistent person.
After failing to reconcile with Lin Wanmeng, he immediately turned around to rope in Shi Qiuqiu.
However, the Lin family that Lin Wanmeng targeted was declining day by day. In the end, they almost couldn’t protect the company. Recently, Lin Bo had been having a headache about how to gather funds.
This time, Shi Qiuqiu was useless to Shen Yusong.
When he received Shi Qiuqiu’s call, Shen Yusong was a little impatient. “Didn’t I tell you not to call me when I’m working? What are you trying to do?”
Recently, Shi Qiuqiu’s attitude towards Shen Yusong had been very flattering. Naturally, she did not dare to refute him. She behaved very timidly, “I have something to tell you… Didn’t you ask me to inquire about Lin Wanmeng last time?”
Shen Yusong urged, “What do you know? Hurry up and say it!”
Shi Qiuqi was mysterious when she told Shen Yusong about what had happened in the parking lot just now. Then, she actively came up with an idea. “Since that b*tch has been abandoned, if we take advantage of the situation now, won’t she be grateful to us?”
These words made sense. Shen Yusong’s heart skipped a beat, and his tone towards Shi Qiuqiu finally became gentler. “Alright, you did well this time.”
Shi Qiuqiu wanted to ask her out for a chat.
Lin Wanmeng sat on the sofa in confusion.
The other party’s tone was filled with a rare fawning tone, just like before they had fallen out. Lin Wanmeng felt a little nauseous and fiddled with her phone to reply, “Why are you looking for me?”
Recently, Shi Qiuqiu had become familiar with her cold tone and did not feel angry. The caution and carefulness in her words made Lin Wanmeng curious.
However, she was not in the mood to waste time on irrelevant people.
“Sorry, I’m not interested. If it’s about the company, get Lin Bo to talk to me.”
“I just want you to see something. We’re sisters after all. I don’t want you to be deceived.”
“It’s about Ye Lingxiao.” Shi Qiuqiu pointed it out.
Lin Wanmeng said coldly, “Do I need you to report to me about Ye Lingxiao?”
“You don’t know how to appreciate kindness! I’m…”
Lin Wanmeng suddenly raised her voice and said mockingly, “Kindness? Are you referring to climbing into Shen Yusong’s bed after I was sold by Lin Bo?”
She leaned back on the sofa and tilted her head to the side. “I didn’t know that was your ‘kindness’!”
Shi Qiuqiu’s expression turned ugly when she heard this. She only said, “Tomorrow at two in the afternoon. I don’t care if you come or not.”
The next day at noon
Beside Lin Wanmeng was a woman in a black jacket. She was dressed like a cool sister. She took off her sunglasses and winked at Lin Wanmeng.
After seeing the other party’s helpless expression, Xu Qingran instantly raised her head like a peacock. “What’s wrong? You stood me up. I have to see who you stood me up for, right?”
This straightforward and honest look was not annoying.
“But she’s your ex-boyfriend’s mistress.” Xu Qingran looked conflicted. “Are you sure you want to see her? I don’t think she’s a good person.”
Lin Wanmeng thought the same thing as Xu Qingran, but she didn’t mind hearing what the other party had to say.
Of course, Xu Qingran didn’t understand. However, as a fangirl, she just had to follow her closely.
She was shopping with her!
Xu Qingran smiled and held Lin Wanmeng’s hand as they walked forward.
Shi Qiuqiu arrived on time. She originally wanted to be late and show Lin Wanmeng off, but she suddenly remembered that Lin Wanmeng was no longer the person she could easily control.
She slammed her bag to the side and put on a cold expression. However, this posture only made people scoff.
Lin Wanmeng tapped on the table and swept her gaze across Shi Qiuqiu, making her tremble in fear.
Shi Qiuqiu’s hand trembled slightly. When she picked up the cup, she realized that she had been intimidated by Lin Wanmeng.
How did that happen?
She was just the mistress of the Ye family. How could Lin Wanmeng change so much in such a short period of time?
“What do you have to say for yourself?”
Shi Qiuqiu wanted to keep her in suspense. After all, she did not believe that Lin Wanmeng could be so calm in the face of the wealth and glory in her hands.
She was originally teasing Lin Wanmeng, but when she saw that the other party really didn’t seem to care, she immediately felt a little discouraged.
“I know that the Qinyu Company is developing well now. Our Lin family wants to invest in the other company in your hands.”
What kind of evil plan was this?
Lin Wanmeng sneered. The experience of Lin Bo tricking her was still vivid in her mind. She did not lose her memory. Did this father and daughter think that she was easy to bully?
“I’m sorry. If you’re here to talk about this, then I won’t accompany you anymore.”
Seeing that Lin Wanmeng was unmoved, Shi Qiuqiu had no choice but to continue throwing out chips. “Not only the Lin family, but also the Shen family.”
Lin Wanmeng only found it funny. She had thought that she would be able to offer something that interested her, but she did not expect to waste time.
