She hadn't asked Liang Feifan about all of this, but did she really think that she was an idiot who didn't know anything?
After all, she, Ye Lian, still owed her a life. Did she have the right to stand in front of her and scold her?
"Bai Lu, I've been tolerating you all this time. I knew that you wouldn't give up on Feifan. Isn't it good to stay in England? What's your motive for coming back? To have sex with my husband? You're really cheap! Don't think that I don't know anything. Let me tell you, God is watching. Last night, you seduced my husband, Liang Feifan. What's your motive? "
Ye Lian's words were sharp. When these unbearable words reached Bai Lu's ears, Bai Lu didn't feel angry. Instead, she felt that it was ridiculous.
"… Miss Ye, you're tolerating me?"
Bai Lu put down the hand that was covering her cheek. Just now, Ye Lian's slap wasn't light. There was an obvious handprint on her face and it was slightly swollen. However, at this moment, Bai Lu's gaze was heavy as she stared at Ye Lian. Her chin was slightly raised, but the light in her eyes was sharp. It didn't make people feel that she was in a sorry state. In fact, her aura was completely above Ye Lian's.
"What did you tolerate me for? What does it have to do with you whether I live in England or come back? What right do you have to call me cheap? Or are you really sure that I was the one who seduced your husband? Why don't you think that maybe it was that man who couldn't forget about me and wanted to have sex with me? Don't act like you're Mrs. Liang. If it was another woman who became Liang Feifan's wife, and she came to scold me for being cheap and shameless, I wouldn't fight back and scold her. But you … heh, do you deserve it? "
In Ye Lian's heart, Bai Lu was probably not like this.
At the very least, she was definitely not a woman who could make such a solemn vow to refute her at a time like this. Because she had not interacted much with her before, she did not expect this woman to be so arrogant in her bones.
Ye Lian's face turned ashen after hearing Bai Lu's words. A trace of ruthlessness flashed across her exquisitely made-up face. The next second, she tightened her grip on her handbag and pointed a trembling finger at Bai Lu. "You, you actually have the cheek to say such things? Bai Lu, you — "
"What about me?"
Bai Lu sneered. When it came to Ye Lian, she didn't even want to show her any expression. "I hope you can understand that Liang Feifan used to be mine. If I hadn't divorced him back then, do you think you would still be in this position today? Ye Lian, I'd rather die in glory than live in dishonor. Do you think I'm helping you? No, I'm not helping you. I'm just helping myself. I'm giving you the position that you've always wanted. If you can't keep your man in check, then don't act like a shrew and vent your anger by hitting other women. I won't hold you accountable for the slap today. I'll just treat it as a dog bite. But ask yourself honestly, between the two of us, are you the one who has wronged me more, or am I the one who has wronged you more? "
"…"
Ye Lian's face was already contorted. Her brightly colored lips were trembling. Bai Lu looked into her eyes. It was as though all the anger and resentment had gathered in an instant and were about to explode in the next second.
But all this was of no use to Bai Lu.
She wasn't afraid of Ye Lian, and she didn't need to care about her feelings. Just as she'd said earlier, if Liang Feifan's wife had been anyone else, she wouldn't have made a sound after the slap. She'd even feel embarrassed. But since it was her, Ye Lian, she didn't feel guilty about sleeping with Liang Feifan last night.
…
She took a step back, reached out and slammed the door with a bang.
Ye Lian was shocked by the sound of the door slamming. When she came back to her senses, she realized she'd been locked outside. She was so angry that her face had completely changed. She reached out to knock on the door, but just as she raised her hand in mid-air, she froze.
Her ferocious gaze contained traces of ruthlessness. The expensive bag in her hand was almost deformed by her grip. In the next second, she turned around and walked toward the elevator.
…
No, I can't go head-to-head with her without caring about my image.
Ye Lian furrowed her brows as she stood in front of the elevator. She watched the numbers on the elevator go up one by one. In her mind, she couldn't stop thinking — if she made a big fuss in City C today, it might alert the media. If someone exposed that Bai Lu was married to Liang Feifan in the past, what would happen to her?
She couldn't. She'd secretly received the news today, which was why she'd rushed over in a hurry. She was probably so angry that she'd lost her mind. The moment she opened the door, she'd ruthlessly slapped her. But she hadn't imagined that this little b * tch, Bai Lu, would have such a sharp tongue. She'd actually managed to shut her up.
But it didn't matter …
Bai Lu!
Just you wait. I'll make you pay for this!
As soon as the double doors of the elevator opened, Ye Lian strutted into the elevator in her seven-inch heels with her head held high. But as soon as the double doors closed, her whole body trembled. She instinctively shrank back and leaned against the corner of the elevator. A second later, she sniffed nervously. Her gaze instantly became a little hollow.
She reached out and frantically tried to look for something in her handbag. But very quickly, she thought of something and her gaze immediately met the camera in the elevator …
Ye Lian suddenly paused in the middle of pulling up the zipper of her handbag. Then she carefully pulled it up and placed it behind her back. However, her expression became increasingly strange. She kept gasping for air and her face became very pale.
Before the elevator reached the bottom of the parking lot, she couldn't wait to walk out. They were on the second floor. She hurriedly ran to the back staircase and pushed open the door. In the darkness of the staircase, she looked around but still found a camera in the corner. Ye Lian stomped her feet, bit her lip, and quickly walked down the stairs …
Bai Lu sat on the sofa with her phone in her hand. Her fair fingers kept swiping across the screen. She had actually deleted Liang Feifan's number a long time ago, but some things, even if she deleted the records of her life, she would still remember them in her mind.
She would never forget them.
When she wanted to call Liang Feifan, his number automatically appeared in her mind.
Bai Lu's heart softened. But when she thought about how Ye Lian looked just now, she felt a dull pain on the left side of her face. The pain on the right side of her forehead was unbearable.
After thinking it over, she threw her phone down and ran to the bathroom. She looked at herself in the mirror. Sure enough, her cheek was swollen and the skin on her forehead was scraped. It was easy to imagine the frustration in her heart.
She didn't even know why she was like this. She could say things to Ye Lian as a matter of course, but when she was alone, she couldn't convince herself.
She suddenly felt dirty and that Liang Feifan was even dirtier.
How could he touch a woman like Ye Lian and then touch her? She still couldn't believe that Liang Feifan and Ye Lian had been married for more than a year. He really never touched her …
Her mind was a mess. She had no clothes to wear and didn't know what to do. Was she supposed to just sit there and wait for Liang Feifan?
No. She told Wen Zhaoren that she had a meeting in the afternoon. Bai Lu bit her lip. In the end, she still picked up her phone and called Liang Feifan.
His number hadn't been changed. The call went through quickly. After ringing twice, someone picked up. The deep male voice on the other end traveled into her ears through the airwaves. It sounded a little husky and sexy with a little gentleness. "Are you awake? I had something to take care of here, so I left the hotel early. Do you want to eat something? I was afraid you'd fall asleep, so I didn't let anyone disturb you. If you're awake, I'll arrange — "
"Liang Feifan, get someone to bring me clothes!"
Bai Lu cut him off right away. Her tone was unfriendly.
Of course, Liang Feifan didn't know that Ye Lian had already come to look for her. He thought she was in a bad mood because of what happened last night, so he said calmly, "I'll get someone to bring you clothes, but you don't have to go to work today. I know you're tired …"
"Pa!" Bai Lu had already hung up the phone.
Liang Feifan's face suddenly darkened. In the hotel conference room, more than ten senior executives of the Liang Clan's branch in C City watched as the usually dignified president suddenly heard his phone ring in the middle of a meeting. He couldn't wait to pick it up and speak softly to the person on the other end of the line. They were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.
Everyone knew that Mr. Liang was married, but didn't the outside world always say that Mr. Liang and Mrs. Liang's married life was very harmonious?
Everyone in the business world knew that the marriage between Family Ye and Family Liang was purely a business marriage. Moreover, more than a year ago, Liang Feifan himself seemed to have been involved in a huge scandal. The female lead of the scandal seemed to be an employee of his company and his personal secretary. The two of them had a lot of trouble, and there were even rumors that they had gotten married in private …
But just now, the man who was always serious in speech and manner in front of everyone actually had a soft look in his eyes. It was indeed surprising. Of course, the most surprising thing was that Mr. Liang seemed to have been hung up on.
Liang Feifan's face darkened. The screen of the phone in his hand had already dimmed. He took two deep breaths and pushed away the folder in front of him with his slender fingers. He said in a deep voice, "That's all for today. You guys can go back first. I'll contact you tomorrow. Bring the things that I asked you to prepare over tomorrow."
