"This morning's trending topics included not only haters, but even her own die-hard fans on Weibo, saying that making mistakes is not terrible, as long as she knows her mistakes and does not correct them, she will still be the idol in their hearts."

That can't be right.

Tang Li quickly checked the trending topics and found that someone had done a detailed analysis of the video of Lin Yiyun pushing her.

It felt like I had witnessed it firsthand.

“I have to say something fair for her; she really didn’t touch me.”

It turns out that when a person's public image begins to crumble, even if someone tries to tell the truth, no one will believe them.

"But she is not innocent. She knew there was a grudge between you, so she should have stayed away from you as much as possible. Instead of staying away, she approached you with ulterior motives. I saw that video online, and I can at least be sure that she really wanted to harm you. Whether she succeeded or not is not important. She had evil intentions and deserved to be punished."

A single sentence from Jingjiu woke Tang Li up.

"However, she's been having a rough time lately, and many scripts are hesitant to approach her. Today I heard that several directors are in contact with her, asking her to play the villainous second female lead in their dramas."

This is truly a case of "what Xiao He achieved also ruined."

After sighing, Tang Li asked again:

"And there's more good news?"

The Jingjiu Expressway representative said excitedly:

"The film 'The Female General' has been scheduled for release on April 26th."

April 26th.

"That day was your birthday, wasn't it romantic and surprising?"

romantic!

What a pleasant surprise!

But Tang Li received a call from Chu Nai, so she quickly told Jing Jiu, "I'll treat you to a big meal on the day of the release."

Then I called Chu Nai and we arranged to meet at a coffee shop.

"This is the recording I received."

At a booth in the coffee shop, Chu Nai handed a voice recorder to Tang Li.

“I used to think she was just a little woman blinded by love. It wasn’t until I started investigating her that I discovered she was a cautious and ruthless person. She had destroyed almost all the evidence of what she had done in the past.”

Chu Nai hurriedly said that he could only offer the recording first.

But Tang Li pushed it back exactly as it was:

"It's okay, no rush, take your time. There's plenty of time ahead, she'll show her true colors sooner or later."

Tang Li smiled calmly.

“What I need is a long-term ally. You don’t need to sacrifice yourself. Take the recorder back. In the future, you should leave yourself a way out.”

Chu Nai was stunned.

"Tang Li, with this recording pen, you can completely bring her down."

"But I don't want to fight on your shoulders." Besides, recordings alone are far from sufficient evidence.

During the month and a half that he was away from Tanzhou, Tang Li kept thinking about one thing: why the Tang Yuan incident clearly pointed to Lin Yiyun.

However, all the evidence suddenly portrayed Lin Yiyun as a complete victim.

There's definitely a bigger conspiracy behind this.

Huo Chenyu is a man who cannot tolerate any nonsense. The fact that he can tolerate Lin Yiyun's audacity under his nose can only prove that Lin Yiyun is still of great use!

"You want to win people's hearts and make me completely devoted to you?" This woman is also terrifying, and Chu Nai couldn't help but feel fear.

Tang Li denied it:

"I thought that my own strength was enough to make you submit, and I didn't need to win people's hearts."

How arrogant!

She's so arrogant that you feel like you can't stand her, but you can't get rid of her!

Her aura was too powerful. Chu Nai put away the recorder and nodded.

"There's something else. Lin Yiyun has always been wary of me. Now that I've suddenly gained power in the Chu family, she must be suspicious of me."

Lin Yiyun is a person with two faces.

"So when she suddenly said she wanted to introduce me to someone, I felt she was testing me."

Chu Nai took out her phone, opened the photo, and showed it to Tang Li:

"His name is Song Beiye, and he is Song Nanxiu's mortal enemy."

The current head of the Dongsong family.

After glancing at it, Tang Li smiled and said, "Lin Yiyun is a good person to get along with. The person she introduced to you is quite outstanding."

Chu Nai did indeed want to rely on the Eastern Song Dynasty and formally rival her sister.

But now she suddenly realized that men are the most unreliable creatures.

It's better to rely on Tang Li than on a man.

“Song Beiye is known for being indifferent to women, and some people have even questioned his sexual orientation. But just last night, Song Beiye suddenly added me on WeChat and said that he was coming to Tanzhou soon and wanted to invite me to dinner.”

Something unusual must be going on.

Chu Nai felt that this must have been a scheme orchestrated by Lin Yiyun.

"Before the news of Huo Shao's marriage to Lin Yiyun broke, even though he had been secretly married to me for three years, the rumors outside were that he was not interested in women, and even that Jiang Mian, who was by his side, was his darling who warmed his bed at night."

Tang Li smiled and said:

"If you can truly become the future mistress of the Eastern Song Dynasty, it might not be a bad thing for you or the Chu family."

Chu Nai dared not lose the big picture for the small gain:

"I need your help to put on a show with me. If there's a wine tasting event at the winery tonight, Chu Ting and I will both be there. You'll have to side with Chu Ting and be on the opposite side of me."

Tang Li readily agreed.

After hesitating for a while, Chu Nai seemed to have something else to say.

"Although we may not become best friends, feel free to tell me anything."

Tang Li checked the time; there was plenty of time, and it wouldn't delay her from delivering the lunchboxes at noon today.

“I found out that Huo Yancheng went to Weiran Waterfront last night.”

This should be a matter within the Huo family.

Chu Nai knew she shouldn't have spoken up, but she still wanted to remind Tang Li:

"I don't know if you've heard it, but in Tanzhou a few years ago, there were rumors that Young Master Huo wasn't a member of the Huo family by blood, and that the Huo Group would eventually return to the hands of the second young master of the Huo family. Some people also said that the Huo family was only on the surface and that Huo Yancheng was likely a wolf in sheep's clothing, and that sooner or later they would turn against each other."

This passage contains a wealth of information.

Tang Li laughed loudly:

"When the forest is big, crows and larks will inevitably sing in competition. Thank you for reminding me, but my brother-in-law is just a child who hasn't grown up. Those rumors are all baseless."

Chu Nai said no more.

After she left, Tang Li sat alone in the booth for a long time.

Recalling Wei Chaoyu's claim of being pregnant out of wedlock, it's astonishing that such a good person didn't feel the slightest remorse for interfering in someone else's marriage.

It is clear that Huo Chenyu's background is truly intriguing.

Upon closer examination, there must be another hidden reason behind Huo Yishen's firm opposition to the Tang family's daughter entering the Huo family.

Could it be related to Huo Chenyu's background?

Tang Li patted his head. Instead of letting his mind wander, he decided to do something bold and start by taking a hair out of Huo Chenyu's body!

Thinking of this, Tang Li got up, first went to the supermarket on the basement floor to buy a lunchbox, then went to the first floor to order a claypot rice dish to put in the lunchbox. Carrying the lovingly prepared lunchbox she had personally bought, she walked briskly into Huo Chenyu's office...
