Chapter 148: How the Story Changed

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhou Lin glanced at him and said in a relaxed tone, “You don’t have to be so exaggerated. Jingran is the president of the Li Corporation. It’s just a bottle of red wine, it’s nothing to him.”

Everyone present was stunned once again.

They did not know Li Jingran, but they had heard of the famous Li Corporation in the industry.

They had come to the right place to eat!

Even Master Nanshan looked at Xu Wanwan with a trace of inquiry.

She said that Li Jingran was family, but their surnames were different and they did not look alike. What kind of family were they?

Zhou Lin seemed to treat herself as the hostess here. She said calmly, “The dishes are all here. Everyone, hurry up and eat. Jingran is very busy with work. It’s not easy to be able to eat here with everyone.”

“There’s no rush, I have plenty of time.”

After Li Jingran said that, he gave Zhou Lin a cold look.

Zhou Lin saw that he did not give her any face at all and looked embarrassed. She wanted to pick on Xu Wanwan.

She ate a few mouthfuls of the dishes and pretended to be friendly. “Wanwan, your standard of living is better now. It’s not as hard as it used to be in the countryside. Eat more, look at how thin you are…”

Xu Wanwan was enjoying her meal. When she heard her disgusting words, she put down her chopsticks.

This woman was really interesting.

She was insinuating that she used to be from the countryside, making everyone suspect her relationship with Li Jingran.

Xu Wanwan took out a napkin and elegantly wiped the corner of her lips. She followed her words and said, “You don’t have to care about me. Mr. Li usually treats me very well. He always gets people to send my favorite dishes to school.”

“Today is our treat. Please forgive us if we don’t treat you well.”

A trace of praise appeared in Li Jingran’s eyes.

She was indeed smart.

With just a few words, she had adjusted her position. Just a few words had made Zhou Lin extremely embarrassed.

Master Nanshan was even more confused now. He couldn’t help but ask, “Little Xu, what is the relationship between you and Xiao Lin?”

Without waiting for Xu Wanwan to answer, Zhou Lin beat her to it. “Master, Little Xu was actually adopted by Jingran. She has been living in his house, so it’s reasonable for her to treat Jingran as her family.”

After she said that, she looked at Xu Wanwan with a fake smile. “Speaking of which, I had a misunderstanding when I met Little Xu. At that time, I was engaged to Jingran. When I went to his house, I thought that she was Jingran’s hidden lover.”

Although she said these words with a smile, her words were full of misdirection.

The people present could not help but sigh.

If Xu Wanwan was really adopted, logically speaking, she would not have received such good treatment.

Thinking of it this way, Zhou Lin’s words had some logic.

Perhaps she really had an improper relationship with Li Jingran.

After Master Nanshan heard it, he also furrowed his brows fiercely. Although he did not believe that Xu Wanwan was such a person, Zhou Lin had always been his favorite disciple. He had always believed what she said unconditionally.

Xu Wanwan could not eat after hearing that.

She was still calm. She picked up the cup, drank a few sips of water, then she looked up at Zhou Lin, “Miss Zhou, you have also investigated me privately. You should know that I do not have that kind of relationship with Mr. Li. Moreover, I remember that the first time you came to the Li family, you treated me as a maid. How come the story has changed now?”

“Mr. Li has broken off his engagement with you already It’s actually not appropriate for you to say these words in front of everyone.”

Zhou Lin’s expression changed drastically. Her fingertips dug into her flesh, and she gradually lost her composure!

She forced herself to say, “Little Xu, at that time, you lived in the Li family. In addition, Mr. Li liked you very much. I didn’t want to make things difficult for Jingran, so I agreed to break off the engagement.”

‘i

You also know that Uncle Li has a heart condition. In order to prevent him from being provoked, I personally requested to break off the engagement. How can you say that about me now?”

Xu Wanwan looked coldly at the woman in front of her.

In terms of acting and pretending to be innocent, she was really no match for her.

She was clearly the one who had done something bad behind Li Jingran’s back, and now she was blaming herself for breaking off the engagement.

Li Jingran also saw through Zhou Lin’s trick. She wanted Xu Wanwan to make a fool of herself in public.

His mood dropped to freezing point. He glanced at her coldly and said, “There are many people here today. I want to leave you some face, so I advise you to think about what you want to say.”

No matter how unconvinced Zhou Lin was, she was still frightened by Li Jingran’s dark and cold eyes.

She bit her lip in anger. She could not vent this anger in her heart.

The people here today were all flattering her.

There was also her Master who liked her the most.

She absolutely could not lose face!

Zhou Lin took a deep breath and simply threw caution to the wind. She looked as if she had been wronged, “Jingran, I won’t say anything if you want to take care of Little Xu now, but we’ve been childhood friends since we were young. Even if we break off the engagement, we can still be friends.”

Li Jingran curled her lips coldly.

Since she didn’t want to show any mercy, he wouldn’t stay any longer.

“Don’t you know why we broke off the engagement?”

Li Jingran snorted coldly. “You changed your name overseas and got pregnant with someone else’s child. What right do you have to expect me to accept your unbearable past?” Zhou Lin bit her lips hard, wishing that she could bite her own lips until they bled!

What a joke!

She was still gambling, betting that the man she had known since she was young would not be so cruel to her, but she actually lost the bet!

“Back then, when I got plotted against overseas, how could I have been willing?” Zhou Lin hurriedly got rid of her relationship, “But I didn’t expect you to mind so much…”

“Later, I saw that you liked Little Xu very much, so I quit. What’s the point of saying all this now?”

After she finished speaking, she immediately picked up her bag and looked at Master Nanshan with an aggrieved expression. “Master, I’m sorry. I’ll be leaving first.”

Zhou Lin had deliberately left at this moment so that Master Nanshan would pity her and misunderstand Xu Wanwan.

After she left, everyone present had a very complicated feeling as they finished their meal.

They had thought that it was just a simple meal, but who would have thought that they would encounter such an exciting event.

Master Nanshan’s face was even darker.

He had originally admired Xu Wanwan’s talent, but her existence had actually ruined Zhou Lin’s relationship.

He had never taken in anyone who was immoral.

When Master Nanshan heard this, his tone also became darker. “Alright, today’s meal is my treat. After this, I will distribute the money to Little Xu. Everyone, disperse.”

Originally, eating out was a joyous occasion. However, because of this sudden incident, everyone no longer had the mood to continue eating.

Furthermore, with Master Nanshan’s words, the group could only leave resentfully.

Xu Wanwan was stunned. Looking at this scene, she frowned.

Looking at Master Nanshan’s serious expression, it was very likely that he was angry.

Xu Wanwan did not think too much and quickly chased after him. “Master, what did we do wrong to make you angry?”.
