Chapter 29 The Target of Public Criticism

The slap gave me some tinnitus and I staggered back a few steps.

I looked at the little fish in front of me, with uncontrollable surprise and confusion in my eyes.

Xiaoyu looked at me with sarcasm in her eyes, pointed at my nose and started scolding me, completely ignoring the looks of the people around her.

"You are so young, why do you have to be a vixen? You are flirting with my man. I thought you were a nice person and agreed to let you help me, but I didn't expect you to have such evil intentions."

Zhang Ge showed a bit of fear on his face, then he stood up and grabbed her arm, "Xiao Yu, it's nothing."

I quickly explained, "I'm here to ask for advice on work, it's not what you think..."

Before I could finish my words, Xiaoyu continued to scold me, "What a despicable trick you used, and you dared to ask him out for dinner alone."

As she said this, she was about to rush up to me again, her eyes so vicious that it seemed as if she wanted to tear me apart.

Brother Zhang immediately put his arm around her shoulders and tried to speak softly and gently, "Xiao Yu, we are just talking about work, nothing else."

Seeing him speak for me, Xiaoyu stamped her feet in anger, "She is a mistress, how dare you stand on her side?"

The more she talked, the more outrageous it became. Finally, Brother Zhang saw that she couldn't listen anymore, so he pulled her away.

For a while, I became the target of public criticism.

People around me were pointing at me, and many of them were taking videos with their phones.

"So this is the mistress. Now she's been caught by the original wife."

"The mistress is the most shameful, take a picture of her and upload it to the Internet..."

Not wanting to be photographed in an awkward position, I immediately covered my face and left.

The matter quickly escalated and soon reached Jiang Yichen.

Jiang Yichen called us to the hospital and asked coldly, "What is the situation? How do you plan to deal with it?"

The little fish took the initiative and without giving me a chance to speak, it poured all the dirty water on me.

"It was Gu Mo who seduced my boyfriend. I got angry and did it, but she was the one who was wrong. Boss, you must fire her. If someone like her stays in the company, it will bring disaster sooner or later."

Jiang Yichen looked at me with a gloomy face.

"I didn't do that kind of thing. Brother Zhang and I were just having a meal together." I hurriedly explained for fear of being misunderstood by him.

Xiaoyu snorted coldly, took out his cell phone and started fiddling with it.

"Boss, look, I have evidence. This is a photo of her secretly kissing Brother Zhang."

Brother Zhang was obviously stunned for a moment, and when he glanced at me out of the corner of his eye, he felt a little guilty. He pulled Xiaoyu's arm, "Xiaoyu..."

Seeing that Xiaoyu ignored him, he was about to clarify things with Jiang Yichen, but was interrupted by Xiaoyu's angry rebuke, "You'd better behave yourself! Don't forget who you belong to."

Brother Zhang immediately lowered his head and dared not speak.

But I never did anything like that, and I don’t know where the photo of Xiaoyu came from.

Jiang Yichen's face became increasingly gloomy, and the entire ward was filled with a heavy atmosphere.

After a while, he waved his hand, signaling Xiaoyu and Brother Zhang to go out first.

After the two of them left, we were the only ones in the room.

"Gu Mo, why do you seduce someone else's boyfriend?"

Jiang Yichen exuded a terrifying sense of oppression.

He stood up and moved closer to me, his tall figure looming over me, his cold eyes fixed on me.

"Are you that horny? Can't you live without a man?"

This huge pot was placed directly on my head, and I couldn't help feeling aggrieved.

I knew he wouldn't believe anything I said, so I turned my head away and couldn't help but mutter, "I might as well seduce you instead of seducing him."

I don’t know if it was my illusion, but after he said this, Jiang Yichen’s hostility seemed to dissipate a little.

I looked up and saw a mysterious curve at the corner of his mouth.

Before I could come to my senses, he said, "Get out. I'll investigate."

The news quickly spread throughout the company.

When Xiao Tiantian found out, she was so angry that she started cursing.

"Gu Mo, you are also a fool. Everyone in the company knows about his relationship with Xiaoyu, but you are the only one who rushes to get close to him."

But I had no idea that Xiaoyu and Brother Zhang had that kind of relationship before.

"What should I do? Is there no chance of redemption?"

I subconsciously asked Xiao Tiantian for help.

Xiao Tiantian looked at me and shook her head, but still gave me some advice.

"You go and explain to Xiaoyu. As long as she comes forward to clarify that it was a misunderstanding, then everything will be fine. She won't suffer any loss anyway. She can just regard this incident as a free hot search."

This immediately gave me direction.

Not wanting to escalate the situation, I thanked her and went straight to find Xiaoyu.

Seeing me coming over suddenly, Xiaoyu was not surprised at all. She just glanced at me indifferently and asked, "What's the matter?"

I didn't want to waste time, so I sat down opposite her.

She was casually scrolling through her phone without even looking at me, and it was obvious that she didn't take me seriously.

"Sister Xiaoyu, what happened between me and Brother Zhang was really just a misunderstanding. There is no relationship between him and me."

When Xiaoyu heard me mention Brother Zhang, she calmly put her phone on the table. She folded her arms and looked disdainful.

"so what?"

I didn't think too much about it and just assumed she was still angry.

I lowered my attitude again and said gently, "Can you come forward and help me clarify this?"

"So what if it's a misunderstanding? Why should I help you?"

Hearing this, my heart couldn't help but sink a little.

If this matter is not resolved, it will have a huge impact on me.

It doesn't matter to her at all.

"Sister Xiaoyu, I'm a newcomer. This matter is very important to me. You can just treat it as a free hot search..."

Xiaoyu's expression was still indifferent, and it seemed that she didn't trust me.

"All I saw was you and him together. I won't explain. It's no use for you to tell me this."

She still refused to give in, and even said, "Everyone in the company knows that he is my man, and no one dares to meet him alone, but you went. Isn't it obvious that you don't take me seriously?"

"I might as well tell you that the photo of you kissing him secretly is also fake."

Only then did I realize that all this was done intentionally by Xiaoyu.

Seeing me instantly dejected, Xiaoyu's face flashed with pride, and then added, "If I don't punish you, my position in the company will be lost. This incident can only be regarded as your bad luck. I hope you can learn a lesson."

This is just a means of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, and I am responsible for hitting the chickens of other people in the company.

I was still foolishly fantasizing that she could clarify and settle the matter for me.

I don’t know how I left in the end, I just felt very depressed and had no place to vent all my grievances.

My consciousness was drifting, until a phone call from my brother brought me back to my senses.

Looking at the rapidly jumping numbers on the screen, I suddenly had a bad feeling.
