Upon seeing the title, Tang Li couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Is Madam not angry?"
Seeing Tang Li's bright smile, Jiang Mian's mood also brightened.
"Angry? What are you angry about? Are you angry that someone offered so much money to beg your father?" Tang Li found it absurd.
She was ignorant; she had only ever heard of wealthy women offering large sums of money to have children.
This was the first time she had ever seen such a sensational news story about someone offering a large sum of money to beg a father.
She married into a wealthy family with a billion-dollar fortune, just to find a father for her unborn child.
Do you really think Huo Chenyu is a great victim of injustice?
Tang Li didn't even bother to click in and take a look; after all, why bother with something that was completely fabricated?
"Did you open and read it, Madam?"
Jiang Mian asked, still somewhat uneasy.
"No, the innocent are innocent, there's no need to pay attention to it." Tang Li put down his phone and closed his eyes to rest.
"But Madam..."
Jiang Mian couldn't hold back any longer: "This morning the news was spreading rumors about you and President Lu, but this afternoon the tide turned. I don't know who released a short video, but in the video..."
Jiang Mian watched the video and immediately recognized Zhou Qiang as the person who had used violence against Tang Li.
After a pause, Jiang Mian finally mustered up her courage and said:
"There are rumors going around that the child in Madam's belly is Zhou Qiang's. They say that President Lu refused to pay for it, so Madam found this gullible old man to be her scapegoat."
Does Huo Chenyu look like a sucker?
Would a business genius who is feared in Tanzhou be so brain-dead as to become someone else's sucker?
"But Madam, don't worry about it. Nowadays, girls are all very ambitious. Let alone having a billion, even an ordinary girl with a million would be eager to leave her father and keep her son. Who would be so stupid as to rush to beg her father for a lot of money and make a fool of themselves?"
That makes sense.
Tang Li didn't care at all; she was now just an observer, waiting to see how the Huo family would respond.
She won't use her trump card until the very last moment.
Seeing that Tang Li was unaffected by these rumors, Jiang Mian couldn't help but inform on him:
"Actually, the boss has been secretly investigating Miss Lin. This matter involving Zhou Qiang is inextricably linked to Miss Lin."
It turns out that Huo Chenyu knew everything.
But he still insisted on marrying Lin Yiyun.
Tang Li felt inexplicably sad. If she hadn't brought her pregnancy test report to the wedding and tried to steal the bride, they would have been a perfect couple long ago.
"Just drive your car properly."
Tang Li felt aggrieved and closed her eyes, ceasing all interaction with Jiang Mian.
It turns out that loving someone truly means accepting and tolerating that person without any limits.
Jiang Mian suddenly panicked, not knowing what he had said wrong. In the enclosed space of the car, he could clearly feel the change in the atmosphere.
A premonition that his bonus was in jeopardy rose in his mind.
When they were almost at the Huo family's residence, Zhao Wenxun called and immediately began to curse:
"That little bitch Lin Yiyun is really ruthless to herself, sister. Have you seen the news? Let me tell you, when a person is shameless enough, they are invincible. This saying applies to Lin Yiyun even more than that."
Another news story?
After hanging up the phone, Tang Li opened Weibo, and sure enough, Weibo was flooded with news about Lin Yiyun.
A video of her being intercepted by Zhou Qiang and almost being humiliated has gone viral.
What kind of weird trick is this?
To smear oneself in order to prove innocence?
Does she still remember the persona she cultivated in the entertainment industry as the "pure and innocent leader"?
Before Tang Li could finish reading all the trending topics, Jiang Mian slammed on the brakes and stopped the car. He patted the seat anxiously and said to Tang Li:
"Madam, this is Miss Lin's car."
A Toyota Alphard minivan was parked in front of the Huo family's house.
That was Lin Yiyun's car when she went to work.
The driver was in the car, and so was Nan Zhi, the assistant; it seemed she had arrived in a hurry.
Jiang Mian drove the car directly into the manor. Huo Sitang made a phone call at the gate, telling Huo Yancheng to get back immediately because his future wife had come to visit.
In the living room.
Lin Yiyun sat on the sofa, weeping bitterly, sobbing as she tried to defend herself:
“Auntie, I really didn’t do anything to betray Tang Li. I did invite Tang Li out for a get-together that day. I told you and Uncle this when I came to the Huo family last time.”
Come here and cry your heart out?
Or should I explain?
Is she trying to confuse the public and distort the truth?
Tang Li stood behind her, listening quietly to her rambling nonsense.
“I parted on bad terms with Tang Li and left early. On the way, I ran into Zhou Qiang. I thought he was only targeting me. Later, when he tried to blackmail me with the video, I thought I could just give him some money to get rid of him. I never expected that this beast would also lay a hand on Tang Li.”
oh.
I understand.
It turns out she was trying to portray herself as a victim in order to clear her name.
Lin Yiyun cried terribly:
“When I saw the news today, I was very scared. I am a public figure, and I know that since Zhou Qiang has made a move against Tang Li, he will definitely not let me off the hook either.”
Zhou Qiang: I really thank you. I'm sitting in jail, and trouble comes out of nowhere.
“I was terrified all day. When I received the call from my dad, I really broke down. Uncle Huo has made a move against our Lin family, cut off our funding chain, and monopolized all the clients who do business with the Lin family. My dad had a heart attack in the heat of the moment, and my mom also fainted due to high blood pressure. Auntie, please let me see Uncle Huo. I can explain. It really wasn't me. No matter how much I hate Tang Li, I can't hurt my older brother in this way.”
Weeping, Lin Yiyun knelt down.
Wei Chaoyu remained unmoved, instead reaching out to Tang Li:
