The truth came out: it was all Lin Congzhi's fault.
Thinking of this, her beautiful face immediately turned red with anger, and she pointed at Lin Congzhi's nose and shouted: "Lin Congzhi, it's all your fault!"
Lin Congzhi remained calm and composed, neither arrogant nor impatient, and asked sarcastically, "Do you think they wouldn't have talked about it if this hadn't happened?"
Jiang Yimei paused, her face showing a hint of surprise, and for a moment she was speechless.
That's right. Even without that incident, there's something else going on. As long as she's around Lin Congzhi, she's bound to be involved in scandals, unless she becomes his girlfriend or wife.
However, this is impossible.
Looking at the reserved, noble, and handsome man before her, she realized that he was truly a "femme fatale," and suddenly, she regretted coming back.
If you don't listen to what you hear, you won't see what you don't see. As long as she ignores the rumors and gossip, nothing will happen.
Having realized this, she left directly and went to her office.
Watching her departing figure, Lin Congzhi snorted lightly, a handsome smile curving his lips, feeling that Jiang Yimei was still teachable.
Jiang Yimei was genuinely bored after spending the morning playing in the office.
I used to pray to gods and Buddhas for such days, but now I feel no joy at all. I don't know if I'm debasing myself or if I'm really treating myself like a general manager.
She didn't want to think about things she couldn't understand, so she went downstairs to eat.
Arriving at the same underground shopping mall as yesterday, she entered the same noodle shop, ordered the same bowl of zha jiang mian (noodles with minced meat sauce), and began to enjoy her meal.
Midway through the meal, a large bowl suddenly slammed onto the table in front of her with a loud thud, carrying a hint of hostility.
She narrowed her eyes, sensing that something bad was about to happen.
Sure enough, the next moment, a familiar figure slowly descended and appeared in front of her unexpectedly.
Along with that came a sharp, sarcastic voice: "Oh! Isn't this the imposing General Manager Jiang? Why are you eating such shabby noodles here?"
As soon as the sound came out, the surrounding customers immediately turned their attention to it.
They had rarely heard of a company CEO eating sour noodles, and they were very curious to know who this CEO was, what he looked like, and which company he came from.
Feeling the many surprised gazes directed at her, Jiang Yimei harbored deep resentment and hated Gu Xiaoting intensely.
This woman who overthinks without asking why is simply beyond help.
Not wanting to waste her breath, she immediately replied with considerable annoyance and rudeness, "None of your business."
Gu Xiaoting ignored her and continued to mock, "I heard that you went to a hotel with Manager Lin again last night."
Upon hearing this, the onlookers' gazes became even more unusual, accompanied by gasps of surprise.
Although the two women exchanged very little, only a few words, the surrounding customers understood one thing: the boss eating the noodles seemed to be involved in power-for-sex transactions within the company.
They had been wondering how such a young woman could become the company's CEO; there must be something fishy going on. Now it seemed that was indeed the case.
It's one thing to say such things at the company, but to say them outside is something Jiang Yimei absolutely cannot tolerate. She immediately rebuked, "Gu Xiaoting, don't make baseless accusations."
The angrier Jiang Yimei became, the happier Gu Xiaoting was.
She wanted Jiang Yimei, that fallen woman, to suffer a terrible death, and she wanted to infuriate Jiang Yimei: "This is just a rumor that's been circulating outside, not something I said."
