Chapter 96 Illegitimate Child
The moment the ribbon was torn off, An Ning was panicked. The shocking scar exposed made her panic for a moment.
Her face turned pale instantly, and she quickly pulled her hand out and quickly wrapped the ribbon around her wrist.
She lowered her eyes, not daring to look at him, her voice trembling, "How did you know?"
Song Xiaoyu's eyes were red. "Ningning, we grew up together and understand each other better than ourselves."
Her eyes fell on the ribbon that An Ning had tied again. "You didn't like wearing these things on your hands before. You always felt that it would interfere with your work. I don't believe this is a habit you developed during your time away from home."
She looked at An Ning's pale face and said, "My intuition tells me that you are hiding something."
Sure enough, she guessed right.
She was actually prepared to know that An Ning had scars on her wrists, but she didn't expect... so many.
There are several lines, deep and shallow.
"You have depression?"
She bluntly exposed her concealment, and although her tone was questioning, it was firm.
Knowing that she couldn't hide it anymore, An Ning forced a smile and said, "It's almost healed."
Afraid that Song Xiaoyu wouldn't believe her, she smiled and explained, "The scars you see are all old ones, there are no new ones. I received treatment and took the medicine as directed by the doctor. Don't worry, I'm almost healed now."
Seeing her pretending to be strong, Song Xiaoyu opened his eyes and said, "If I were you, I would rush to Lu Xiyan immediately and let him see with his own eyes the suffering I have endured. If that were the case, how could he possibly waste your kindness? I guess if he knew, he would be heartbroken."
An Ning lowered her eyes and curled the corners of her mouth slightly. Yes, if he knew, he would be heartbroken.
You will blame yourself, feel regretful, and even collapse.
She didn't want him to do that.
"He's just being awkward and having a bad temper right now." An Ning said cheerfully, turning around and smiling, "When I win him back, I'll make sure he treats me well."
She smiled with her eyebrows curved, and Song Xiaoyu looked over and felt that her smile was innocent yet sad.
......
"Yuanyuan, I'm almost at the company...Okay, I know about the afternoon meeting and I won't be late..."
On the first floor of Haowei Group, An Ning walked in while talking on the phone.
"An Ning, right?"
Suddenly someone called her, An Ning hung up the phone and turned around.
“Snap—”
A loud slap suddenly rang out in the huge lobby.
Before An Ning could see who was coming, she was slapped hard in the face. Her face was knocked to the side and her ears were buzzing.
"It's you! I've been watching you since you walked in. You're relying on your looks to seduce other people's husbands. You look like a vixen, how shameless!"
The other person yelled at her at the top of his voice, "You're still young, but you're still trying to be a mistress? I'm telling you, I've seen plenty of women in the workplace who rely on their looks to get ahead. Don't you even consider whether you have what it takes?"
At once, many employees in the lobby looked over.
A red mark instantly appeared on An Ning's fair face, and it felt burning with pain.
She turned to look at the woman in front of her. She was about thirty or forty years old, with delicate makeup on her face, and her clothes and appearance showed a certain elegance.
The point is, she didn't know this person.
After being slapped for no apparent reason and being humiliated in public, An Ning raised her hand and slapped back.
With a "bang", the other party was stunned.
"How dare you hit me!" The woman covered her face and screamed, "How dare you hit me!"
"Why wouldn't I dare to hit you?" An Ning asked calmly, "You hit me, and I hit you back. It's a courtesy, isn't it?"
"You little bitch! Do you know who I am? How dare you hit me!" The woman yelled at the top of her lungs, her face flushed, and she rolled up her sleeves, "I'm the owner of this Haowei! Dong Chenghai is my husband!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the people watching the excitement immediately began to whisper to each other.
An Ning was stunned. "Are you Mr. Dong's wife?"
"That's right, Dong Chenghai is my husband!" The woman pointed at her arrogantly, "You're a mistress, and you dare to hit me before you even become my wife. Who gave you the confidence? Is your last name Dong?"
An Ning frowned, enduring the pain on her face, "Mrs. Dong, I think you may have misunderstood something? What I told President Dong was not what you said—"
"You're making it up! Keep making it up! You dare not admit it?" The woman interrupted her, angrily pulling out her phone from her bag and holding it in front of her. "Look carefully, this is what a vixen like you looks like, right?"
The photo in the phone was placed in front of An Ning, and she recognized at a glance that the people in the photo were indeed her and Mr. Dong.
But...it's a photo of the two of them talking at the department door that day.
In the photo, Dong Zong's hand fell on her shoulder and both of them were smiling.
She suddenly remembered that it was Mr. Dong who was talking to her about cooperation that day. Mr. Dong patted her shoulder just as a boss appreciated his subordinates. Moreover, Mr. Dong's palm did not fall on her shoulder. Instead, the strength and posture were very gentlemanly.
But the photos taken by others seem particularly intimate and ambiguous.
Her brows furrowed slightly. This photo angle... was taken indoors.
"What? You're so speechless after being caught in the act?" Seeing her silence, the woman became even more certain that she and Dong Chenghai were having an affair. With a look of anger on her face, she raised her voice, "That seductive woman in the photo is you, An Ning!"
"Come on, everyone, take a good look!" The woman held her phone out to the surrounding employees watching the excitement. "Look! Everyone, come and see! This woman has evil intentions. She's trying to get promoted by seducing the boss. How shameless!"
The woman made a big fuss, completely disregarding her own pride, and shouted, "As the boss's wife, I'm here to inform you that you've been fired!"
An Ning's heart tightened, and just as she was about to explain, she heard a low growl coming from outside the crowd.
"Have you had enough of this?"
Dong Chenghai appeared on the first floor at some point and yelled to the employees watching the excitement, "You all have nothing to do, right?"
More than a dozen employees immediately dispersed.
He walked towards the woman with an angry look on his face, "Aren't you ashamed yet?"
The woman blushed and was about to say something when Dong Chenghai shouted at her, "Who told you to come to the company and cause trouble?"
When he looked at An Ning, he noticed her cheek and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, An Ning, it was all a misunderstanding."
After that, he took the woman in his arms and walked out, raising his voice to An Ning, "The dismissal is invalid. You are still an employee of Haowei. Just do your best!"
Dong Chenghai left with his wife. An Ning tidied up her hair and was about to go to the elevator.
There was a low whisper in my ear.
"She is An Ning from the project department. I heard she got in through the backdoor."
"This backdoor is not that backdoor, hahaha. If you want to seduce Mr. Dong, don't you even check if his wife will let you? Mr. Dong's wife is notorious for being domineering."
"Do you think she and Dong Zong are really having an affair? Just now, Dong Zong's wife wanted to fire her, but Dong Zong immediately defended her. This is too blatant."
"Not only that, I also heard that An Ning has a son, who is Dong Zong's illegitimate son..."
