Chapter 371 My dear sister, you are so dirty
Then, in a contemptuous tone, he said, "Cui Xiao, since you've already changed jobs, then stop meddling in other people's business. Get out of my way, or don't blame me for not giving you face."
Cui Xiao met Editor-in-Chief Ma's gaze without fear, her thin lips pressed into a thin line. "Ma Wencai, you'd better get out of here too, or I won't mind repeating what happened a few years ago."
Editor-in-Chief Ma suddenly remembered something from the past, her pupils dilated, and her anger nearly reached its peak, "You bitch, how dare you bring that up again."
Cui Xiao remained unfazed. "Editor-in-Chief Ma, you've had too much to drink. Why don't you go home? What do you say?"
He was used to running rampant in the port city and was not about to back down easily. With a gloomy face, he gritted his teeth and said, "Cui Xiao, you've got guts! This isn't over yet, you just wait."
Despite making harsh remarks, Editor-in-Chief Ma eventually left with his entourage.
Seeing the group leave in a hurry, Sun Lu finally relaxed completely.
Cui Xiao glanced at her, said nothing, and prepared to return to the private room next door.
As she turned around, Sun Lu called out to her, "Cui Xiao, you knew what kind of person Editor-in-Chief Ma was from the beginning, why didn't you tell me?"
Cui Xiao paused, "I think I reminded you, but you didn't listen."
Cui Xiao knew Ma Wencai all too well, and Sun Lu, being inexperienced in worldly affairs, was simply no match for him.
Sun Lu ignored all of this and angrily accused Cui Xiao, "You only told me not to go, but you didn't tell me the reason at all. If you had told me from the beginning, I wouldn't have walked into your trap."
Immediately, Cui Xiao raised an eyebrow. "Really? You think you won't go just because I've explained it clearly? No, you'll only think I'm lying to you, that I can't stand to see you doing well. Sun Lu, don't always blame others when something goes wrong for you. Why don't you take a look at yourself and see what kind of person you are?"
Sun Lu hated her condescending attitude. She frowned, then suddenly laughed, "I always thought that you and Editor-in-Chief Ma had a good relationship, which is why he agreed to sign the contract with you. Now it seems that's not the case."
When Editor-in-Chief Ma saw Cui Xiao just now, he looked like he wanted to bite her to death. How could they possibly have a good relationship?
Sun Lu stood in front of Cui Xiao and smiled knowingly, "Given Editor-in-Chief Ma's character, he would never let go of a young, beautiful, and capable woman like you. Cui Xiao, the contract you had with Editor-in-Chief Ma three years ago was probably obtained through sleeping around, wasn't it?"
Sun Lu seemed to suddenly realize something. "No wonder you're so capable, there's no contract you can't close. I used to think you were exceptionally talented, but now I understand. Cui Xiao, just how many men did you sleep with to help Attorney Zhou get the law firm to where it is today?"
"My dear sister, you're so dirty. I don't care about the ability you gained through sleeping around. Speaking of which, do you get regular checkups? I've heard these men are quite promiscuous, and many of them have diseases. You didn't catch something dirty too..."
Before she could finish speaking, Cui Xiao slapped Sun Lu so hard that her ears rang.
Sun Lu covered her slapped face, her eyes shooting out like sharp blades. She was about to question him when she saw the man standing at the top of the stairs not far away.
The man, dressed in a sharp suit, stood with his hands in his pockets, the gleaming shoes reflecting the ceiling light, staring intently in their direction.
Sun Lu suddenly had a bright idea. Her eyes filled with tears, and she cried out in grievance, "Sister, how could you hit me? I was just stating a fact. If you don't want to hear it, I won't say it again."
After saying that, Sun Lu's gaze extended behind Cui Xiao, "Ah, Lawyer Zhou, what brings you here?"
Suddenly, Cui Xiao's back stiffened.
As Zhou Mubin drew closer, he stood beside Sun Lu and casually remarked, "Didn't you call and ask me to come?"
Sun Lu's tear stains were still wet when she heard Zhou Mubin's words, and she was overjoyed.
“Zhou Lu, I just ran into some trouble. Luckily, my sister has some connections with Editor-in-Chief Ma, so he let me off the hook.”
At first glance, this statement seems reasonable.
However, upon closer examination, this "relationship" becomes quite intriguing.
Cui Xiao stood still, her taut back showing no sign of relaxation.
She turned her head to look at Zhou Mubin beside her, "Now that Attorney Zhou is here, I'll hand over your employees to you."
Cui Xiao didn't know how much Zhou Mubin had heard, but whether he heard a lot or a little, she didn't care, and there was no need for her to explain.
As she prepared to leave, Sun Lu reacted quickly, immediately lowering her head, her voice trembling with tears, her shoulders shaking slightly, "Sister, are you in such a hurry to meet other bosses? Are you going home tonight?"
As Sun Lu spoke, she couldn't help but steal a glance at Zhou Mubin, hoping to find a trace of anger on his face, but all she saw was a cold indifference.
Zhou Mubin didn't look at Sun Lu; his gaze fell on Cui Xiao's pale face, and his brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
He took out a cigarette, casually walked up to Cui Xiao, and asked intriguingly, "Socializing?"
Cui Xiao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously tensed up.
She wasn't sure what Zhou Mubin meant, but Cui Xiao guessed that perhaps he had taken Sun Lu's words to heart.
Sun Lu watched this scene, her eyes turning red with jealousy.
How could Zhou Mubin remain so calm? Shouldn't he have called her a bitch? Shouldn't he have been utterly disappointed in her?
Sun Lu bit her lip in frustration and stepped forward to grab Zhou Mubin's arm, but he subtly avoided her.
Then Zhou Mubin said, "You go back first, your sister and I have something to talk about."
This was not the result Sun Lu wanted. Since her goal had not been achieved, how could she give up so easily? "Lawyer Zhou, I'm a little scared. Could you take me home?"
Zhou Mubin finally looked at Sun Lu, his eyes carrying a hint of barely perceptible mockery, "What 'fact' did you just mention?"
Didn't he hear everything?
What does it mean to ask again?
Do they want to hear Cui Xiao's explanation?
After pondering for a long time, just as Sun Lu was about to speak, Zhou Mubin's gaze, as if hooked, stared straight at Sun Lu. "Using words like 'dirty disease' to slander your own sister, Assistant Sun, is this your sisterly affection?"
Sun Lu trembled all over at his question, and she was so frightened that she held back her tears.
Seeing Sun Lu's panicked appearance, Cui Xiao's tense emotions finally eased a little.
She looked up at Zhou Mubin and said, "Lawyer Zhou, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."
Cui Xiao walked very fast and entered the private room next door in just a few steps.
As for Sun Lu, her face was deathly pale.
Especially when Zhou Mubin looked over, she felt even more guilty, "Lawyer Zhou, I..."
Zhou Mubin: "Get lost."
Sun Lu was taken aback, then frowned and left.
Meanwhile, Cui Xiao returned to the private room, having already composed herself. She sat down with a smile and was just about to offer a toast when there was a sudden knock on the door.
