Shangguan Lin said, “Maybe that’s truly the case. In the past, there were some people in the family who tried to persuade him, but he almost broke their legs. Afterward, no one dared to say anything because they were afraid of being beaten up. By the way, CEO Chen, may I ask, how did you and Miss Jiang meet?”
Chen Yizhou did not hide anything. “My brother and Miss Jiang are in the same school. I went to visit my brother last time and happened to meet her.”
“I see,” Shangguan Lin said thoughtfully.
The Zhou family’s daughter asked curiously, “Is Second Young Master Chen also a Performance Arts major?”
“No, he studies economics,” said Chen Yizhou.
The Wu Family’s daughter said, “Jiang Ling’er is probably just lucky. She is surrounded by powerful people.Otherwise, with all those scandals, she would never be able to make a comeback.”
The daughter of the Zhou family replied sinisterly, “No, she’s just keeping a low profile. She doesn’t want to lower herself to the level of some people, that’s all,”
“Miss Zhou, why do you think so?” Wu Clan’s daughter said unhappily. “Have you not seen any of her scandals?”
“Of course I’ve seen it. 1 used to believe it too. Later on, someone maliciously spread rumors that she was a mistress. Afterward, 1 started to doubt whether the past scandals were true.”
The Wang family’s daughter added, “I was a little earlier than Miss Zhou. Before this, 1 had my suspicions when people said that Jiang Ling’er was working as a hostess in a nightclub. She did go to nightclubs for a while, but she only sang to earn money. She didn’t drink with anyone. Those rumors claiming she didn’t come home at night were all a joke because she always left before nine o’clock.”
The Wu family’s daughter asked in confusion, “Miss Wang, how do you know this?”
The Wang family’s daughter smiled and replied, “The bars nearby all basically belong to my family. Moreover, I’m in charge of them. Jiang Ling’er’s singing is very good, and many customers come early to listen to her songs. Due to this, I asked the manager to look for her and ask her to leave work at a later time, but she refused and said that she couldn’t go home too late.”
“So that’s how it is.” The Wu family’s daughter said, “I used to take the rumors so seriously and thought that she was drinking to get to the top. Now that I look at it, I didn’t look at the situation more clearly!”
The Zhou family’s daughter frowned and said, “Miss Wu, please watch your mouth. Jiang Ling’er is the Jiang family’s daughter; she wouldn’t do shameless things to her family. Although she did some stupid things to get Li Yan, she only did it to him. She didn’t do it to anyone else. Therefore, isn’t it inappropriate for you to say such absurd words about her?”
The Wu family’s daughter replied angrily, “We don’t know what exactly happened, but everyone has their own opinions. The dirt on Jiang Ling’er might not be all fake.”
Hearing this, the Wang family’s daughter was speechless. She had already explained everything clearly, so why was this woman still being like this?
“If you think that way, then that’s your own problem,” She said kindly, “However, as a fellow woman, 1 advise you not to say things so carelessly. If you mess up, you will only be hurting yourself.”
Shangguan Lin smiled and agreed with what she said. After all, Shangguan Yunxi was a prime example of this.
“Don’t you know that there’s no smoke without fire?” The Wu family’s daughter said in anger, “1 believe you when you say that some of them are fake, but it’s impossible that all of them are also untrue.”
The Wang family’s daughter rolled her eyes and said, “I was only saying that. Whether you believe it or not is your business. It has nothing to do with us.” “What do you mean?” The Wu family’s daughter asked. “Did I say something wrong? Don’t you know that flies don’t bite a seamless egg?”
The Wang family’s daughter frowned and said, “You’re really ridiculous. I told you that your opinion is your opinion, and 1 never said whether you were right or wrong. Now you’re saying flies don’t bite a seamless egg? If a fly landed beside you one day, would you be a rotten egg with cracks or some organic fertilizer?”
The Zhou family’s daughter almost couldn’t help but laugh out loud. She quickly pulled the Wang family’s daughter’s arm, indicating that she shouldn’t talk nonsense with that kind of person.
On the other hand, the Wu family’s daughter instantly exploded and said furiously, “Who do you think you’re talking about? Can’t 1 say my own opinion and question things?”
“If you want to take it that way, what else can I say?” The Wang family’s daughter said with a smile. “Besides, 1 didn’t say that you can’t do anything. I’m just reminding you out of kindness not to spread baseless rumors. After all, it won’t do you any good.”
“Miss Wang, just what are you yapping about? How can you be so ill-mannered?” The Wu family’s daughter said in disdain.
Chen Yizhou suddenly smiled and said, “Ha… Miss Wu, you’re quite silver-tongued, aren’t you? Seeing how you’re slandering Jiang Ling’er so much, aren’t you saying I have bad taste in choosing people?”
