Chapter 27: Smart Woman



Sometimes being too famous isn't necessarily a good thing.

Tang Muyan fled the scene on the pretext that the meet-and-greet was about to begin. Every minute she spent with Lu Huaichen made her feel suffocated, especially when she laughed. She could clearly feel every inch of her skin trembling.

On the way, Qi Yuan led Tang Muyan in front, and her cold voice came to his ears, "I didn't expect that Teacher Tang is Mr. Lu's ex-wife."

When Tang Muyan heard this, she sensed a hint of sourness in the words, which sounded very uncomfortable. She knew that Qi Bian and Lu Huaichen definitely did not have an ordinary cooperative relationship.

When Qi Yuan looked at her, his eyes were cold, but when he looked at Lu Huaichen, although they were also cold, there was a hint of imperceptible warmth in his eyes.

"Don't you know what ex-wife means?" Although Tang Muyan's words were thorny, her voice was soft and without much strength, but it was enough to silence Qi Yuan.

Seeing that she remained silent, Tang Muyan continued, "Actually, Editor Qi, you don't have to treat me like this. Your liking for Lu Huaichen is your business and has nothing to do with me. We didn't have much affection for each other when we got married. It was all because of our parents' orders, so we had to compromise."

Tang Muyan explained the reason to her. She didn't want to make enemies for no reason, and it was even more inappropriate because of Lu Huaichen.

Qi Yuan's face flushed immediately after being told what was on his mind. "Don't talk nonsense!"

Tang Muyan compromised, "Okay, I won't talk nonsense."

Qi Yuan's look just now was a bit cute, but Tang Muyan still couldn't associate the voice on the phone with Vice President Qi.

Tang Muyan likes to speak her mind and doesn't like to guess, so she asked directly, "Vice President Qi, was it you who talked to me that day?"

The topic changed so quickly that Qi Yuan didn't react for a moment, "What call?"

"It was you who asked me out to meet Qi Wang. No, it was the day we met President Qi."

It would be somewhat impolite to say it directly to Qi Wang. They had only met once and were not that familiar with each other.

Qi Yuan thought for a while before realizing, "It was Qi Wang who called you that day, not me."

How could it be Qi Wang? Tang Muyan thought that he was probably just embarrassed and made it up. The voice on the other end that day was clearly that of a woman.

"But I clearly heard a girl's voice."

"It was Qi Wang." Qi Yuan said with certainty, "He used a voice changer that day."

"Voice changer?" It was the first time that Tang Muyan came across this word in real life. She had only heard of this thing when surfing the Internet.

Unexpectedly, Qi Wang would use it on herself. When she thought of the sweet voice on the phone coming from Qi Wang's mouth, Tang Muyan felt that the thing was quite magical, and she also planned to buy one to use.

So, she asked, "Vice President Qi, what brand is that voice changer?"

This question made Qi Yuan stunned. Is this something a normal person can ask?

Shouldn't you first realize that you are being plotted against?

"I don't know the brand of the voice changer. I'll ask Qi Wang for you later."

"That's great." Tang Muyan smiled sweetly, not caring at all whether Qi Wang had plotted against her.

"Also, just call me Qi Yuan," she added coldly.

Qi Yuan was showing goodwill in disguise. She was a smart person, and Tang Muyan knew that she had listened to what she said just now.

This is only Qi Yuan. If it were someone else, they would not have this awareness.

In Qi Wang's office,

"Qi Wang, will you just take me with you?" A girl with twin ponytails stuck close to Qi Wang and kept shaking his arm.

Qi Wang really hated Qing Shushu's annoying attitude. He pushed her away impatiently, "Qing Shushu, are you sick? We've broken up, and you're still pestering me!"

"I just want you to show me what Tang Xiaoman looks like. You know, I'm a big fan of hers. I just want to see her. Can you take me to the fan meeting?"

Qing Shushu pushed herself towards Qi Wang's arms, but was ruthlessly pushed away by Qi Wang. "If you want to watch it, just buy your own ticket. What? As the adopted daughter of the Lu family, you can't even afford a ticket."

Qi Wang sneered, his words full of sarcasm.

Qing Shushu is the adopted daughter of the Lu family. The Qing family was originally one of the celebrities in Jiangcheng, and the Qing family was a master in making medicine. However, the third son of the Qing family did something ridiculous thirteen years ago and sold fake medicine, which killed many people. Not only did he go to jail, but he also caused the Qing family's stock price to collapse and the company to go bankrupt.

After that incident, the Qing family also fled and dispersed. As the daughter of Master Qing San, Qing Shushu was naturally ignored by everyone, and her mother died of complications during childbirth on the day she was born.

But this little girl was lucky. She was favored by the old lady of the Lu family. She originally wanted to make her a child bride for her grandson, but Lu Huaichen was engaged to the Tang family when he was a child, so the matter had to be dropped. Chen Jing and his wife had to adopt the child.

"Qi Wang, what do you mean? Don't you like me? You should do things for me."

Qing Shushu was very domineering and spoke in an overbearing voice, not realizing at all that she was an adopted daughter.

Qi Wang was so angry at her words that he laughed, "Qing Shushu, who said I like you?"

Qing Shushu obviously didn't believe it. In her heart, Qi Wang loved her hopelessly. When they were in love, no matter how excessive her requests were, he would agree to them.

He said this now because he was angry with himself and angry that she broke up with him. She just needed to coax him.

Qing Shushu leaned forward, deliberately pressing her chest against Qi Wang, pinching her throat and saying delicately, "Baby, don't be angry, I know it's my fault."

As she spoke, she used her medium-sized part to support Qi Wang.

"Qing Shushu, do you really think you have a great figure? With your skinny figure, you still have the nerve to use it to seduce others."

Qing Shushu didn't expect Qi Wang to humiliate her verbally, and to be so excessive.

She screamed in a shrill voice, "Qi Wang, you're going too far."

Qi Wang's face immediately turned cold, and his voice became colder, "That's too much. What can you do to me?"

This sentence made Qing Shushu so angry that she lost her voice. She kept saying "you, you..." for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence. Finally, she left angrily.

As soon as she went out, she met Tang Muyan who was heading to the dressing room, and the two bumped into each other.

Qing Shushu had just been upset at Qi Wang's place, and when she went out she was bumped into by someone. She was worried about having no place to vent her anger, so she cursed at the person without even looking at him clearly, "Don't you have eyes? Can't you look at the road? Are all of you so reckless?"

Tang Muyan was just chatting happily with Qi Yuan when someone accidentally bumped into her. Before she could react, she was scolded and was very confused.

When she saw who it was, a hint of mockery and a bit of disdain appeared in the corners of her eyes.
