“I’m sorry, I’m not interested. It’s better to ask Lin Bo to talk to me personally about the company.” Lin Wanmeng glanced at Shi Qiuqiu and curled her lips. “You can’t make the decision for the Lin family yet.”

Shi Qiuqiu bit her lip, her eyes red.

This sentence could be considered to have poked at the lifeline of the Shi family’s mother and daughter.

How despicable was Lin Bo? He was not a good person, so he would naturally be wary of the people around him.

She clenched her fists unwillingly and forced out the remaining words. “I know you still love Yusong. I’m willing to leave and let the two of you be together.”

Shi Qiuqiu undoubtedly put in a lot of effort to say these words However, Lin Wanmeng only felt like holding her stomach when she heard this.

The corners of Lin Wanmeng’s mouth twitched, but she couldn’t smile. “There’s no need. Goodbye.”

Shi Qiuqiu seemed to have cut off all means of retreat. Lin Wanmeng did not even consider it and turned to leave.

In a moment of desperation, she couldn’t care less about her voice and raised it a little. “I have evidence of Ye Lingxiao’s affair!”

Not only did Lin Wanmeng stop for her, but even the man sitting beside suddenly stopped.

Lin Wanmeng turned around. Although her expression was still cold, it was obvious that she was more concerned than before. She knocked on the table. “What evidence do you have?”

Seeing that Lin Wanmeng was finally in his grasp, Shi Qiuqiu smiled smugly. “I thought you really didn’t care about anything. Why? Am I qualified to talk to you?”

Lin Wanmeng smiled mockingly. “I’m just interested in what you have.”

“If you’re willing to cooperate with me, then I can tell you the whole story.” Shi Qiuqiu had some confidence now, and her words were not too polite.

“As long as you agree to let the Lin family buy 1/3 of the Qinyu Company’s shares, the Lin family will cooperate with the Qinyu Company.”

Lin Wanmeng laughed. “What makes you think I’ll give it to you?”

Shi Qiuqiu proudly showed the envelope in her bag, her eyes flashing with malice. “Of course it’s based on these.”

She was indignant.

She had to flatter and pamper Shen Yusong, but Lin Wanmeng was facing Ye Lingxiao!

There was a hint of sarcasm in her words as she gloated. “You didn’t expect this, did you? Do you think you’re some rare thing? You’re just trash that men throw away casually.”

Lin Wanmeng took a sip of the coffee beside her and ignored Shi Qiuqiu’s provocative words. She slowly put down the cup and looked up. “Without a man, I still have Qinyu and Xinran by my side. What about you? What do you have?”

“I’m not interested in working with the Lin family. I’m just taking back my things now. How can I give them to you?”

She raised her chin slightly and said in a gentle but intimidating tone, “Besides, is the Lin family qualified to negotiate with me now?”

As soon as she said this, Shi Qiuqiu’s face instantly turned red. She bit her lower lip and said angrily, “What’s there to be proud of! You’re just abandoned trash.”

“If Yusong is as rich as Ye Lingxiao, I don’t believe you can be so aloof!”

As she spoke, she threw all the photos she had taken that day in front of Lin Wanmeng.

Lin Wanmeng pretended to look down unintentionally and saw the intimate scenes.

The two of them were clearly extremely intimate, as if they did not leave any space for anyone to interfere.

Lin Wanmeng raised her head and asked, “What does this mean?”

Shi Qiuqiu was stunned. She did not expect Lin Wanmeng to have such a reaction.

“You’re only angry now because you were abandoned by Shen Yusong. Don’t you think it’s ridiculous to consider with all your heart for a man like this?”

“What you said just now was more for you than me. Unfortunately, I’m not like you. Without the Lin family as your backing, you’re nothing.”

This really pierced Shi Qiuqiu’s heart. She was furious. She picked up the coffee cup beside her and was about to splash it on Lin Wanmeng’s face.

However, she could not maintain her anger. She watched as Lin Wanmeng chuckled. Suddenly, her gaze turned sharp. “Think about it carefully. After your splash, I don’t know how many of your Lin family’s collaborations can be preserved.”

Shi Qiuqiu froze, her entire body trembling.

Lin Wanmeng didn’t mind adding another stab. “Don’t tell me you still can’t see through it? You’re just a plaything.”

She lowered her eyelashes and picked up her teacup. “Or should I say tools?”

“If you could be exchanged for Xinran, I don’t need to say what Lin Bo will do.”

Shi Qiuqiu slowly lowered her hand. Her old eyes, which were filled with fatigue, flashed with viciousness like a venomous snake’s fangs.

“What’s there to be proud of? You’re just like your mother. She was abandoned in the end and became an abandoned wife.”

Lin Wanmeng gripped her cup tightly. Xu Qingran, who was beside her, could not stand it anymore. She quickly turned around.

“This is the first time I’ve heard of someone being so self-righteous as a mistress. Could it be that the thickness of your family’s skin is different from ordinary people’s? How can you say such shameless words?”

Shi Qiuqiu was glared at, but Xu Qingran didn’t dodge. She calmly stood up from the side.

This is…

Shi Qiuqiu was stunned at first, and the mockery in her eyes gradually intensified. “So it’s you.”

“What’s wrong? Your father settled that murder case for you and you can come out now. Why don’t you take a look at what kind of upbringing you have!”

Lin Wanmeng was stunned and happened to see Xu Qingran’s stunned expression.

Xu Qingran took a few steps back, a bitter taste in her throat.

It had been half a year since the incident. She stubbornly straightened her back and faced all those with ill intentions with arrogance.

But Lin Wanmeng was different.

Her heels went soft and the back of her head hit a warm wall. The other party did not look at her. Instead, he said calmly,

“Madam Shi, you have to bear legal responsibility for spreading rumors and causing trouble. You’d better think carefully before you speak.”

Shi Qiuqiu was stubborn. “I didn’t say anything wrong…”

She wanted to continue, but Lin Wanmeng took out her phone. “Lin Bo probably doesn’t know that you came to look for me. Should I inform him?”

Shi Qiuqiu swallowed her saliva and ran away dejectedly.

Xu Qing was still in a daze. Zhou Ze studied the situation and smiled helplessly. “We’re really fated.”

How could Xu Qingran hear that? She looked at Lin Wanmeng and panicked. She took a step forward and explained, “No, it’s not like that. Listen to me…”

Lin Wanmeng looked hesitant. “What’s going on?”

Xu Qingran wanted to explain, but after opening her mouth several times, she felt that her throat was dry. In the end, she gritted her teeth and ran into the distance without looking back.

“Miss Xu’s case was handled by a law firm under the Zhou Corporation. At that time, my juniors needed to practice, so I knew a little about it.”

Zhou Zeyan was gentle like jade and spoke slowly. It was unknown how he became good friends with Ye Lingxiao.

“I can assure President Lin that she’s definitely not that kind of person.”

Lin Wanmeng naturally believed it, but she did not want to say anything more to Zhou Zeyan. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, a light voice came from behind.

“I’m saying too much, but President Lin should give Lingxiao more trust.”
