章 5: I'll Give Him to You
Lin Xiangyu targeted Xiao Lingyu because they were from the same school. They interned in the same company and were accepted at the same time.
This meant that no matter where they went, people compared them. Be it at school or the company, Xiao Lingyu's result was better than Lin Xiangyu's. This was why Lin Xiangyu hated the other woman that much.
However, the main reason was actually Chen Ran. Lin Xiangyu loved Chen Ran when they were in school. She even confessed to Chen Ran, but she was rejected.
Xiao Lingyu did not know about this because she only had Chen Ran in her eyes and everything else was insignificant.
In her previous life, Xiao Lingyu was jumped on by Lin Xiangyu when she reached the company. The incident from the night before already shook her.
Xiao Lingyu kept explaining herself, but no one wanted to listen to her. In the end, it was this picture that sent her down into the abyss. Similarly, it was also Lin Xiangyu who produced this picture in her previous life.
At the time, Xiao Lingyu was on the verge of breaking down. She allowed herself to be rebuked and chastised.
However, this time, Xiao Lingyu was in control of herself. She would not be led down this doomed path again. She decided to change her fate since she was given a second chance. She needed to be better not only for herself but also for her future child. She would not allow her son's mother to carry such a shameful label this time!
When Lin Xiangyu showed the picture, the other people snapped back into their senses.
The women looked at Xiao Lingyu with naked sarcasm and contempt. 'Didn't she say she's not a prostitute? Then what about this picture? What could she say now?
'One shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Xiao Lingyu presents herself normally as a decent girl. But she is actually a perverted woman with no self-respect. She is a prostitute, and she will even take on the ugliest client for the sake of money.
'How despicable!'
However, most of these women had their thoughts colored by jealousy.
The men had a rather different reaction. Even though their expression was also filled with disdain, there was also an underlying trace of desire...
'Since Xiao Lingyu is willing to take on such an ugly man, she'd be more than happy to sell her service to normal men like us!' These men thought to themselves.
Yan Siming, standing beside Xiao Lingyu, had his eyes lit up. He had seen many beauties in his life. Xiao Lingyu could only be considered ordinary in his eyes.
However, what attracted him was the woman appeared to have a combination of purity and ruthlessness within her.
Yan Siming's lips curled into a smile to show interest in the woman. He captured the change in the crowd's attitude towards Xiao Lingyu as they moved from disdain to shock.
With his understanding of human nature, Yan Siming was sure this woman was not a person of easy virtue.
However, something still bothered him. Xiao Lingyu should only be a small worker at this company. She was insignificant, so why was the whole company that hostile towards her? Was there a story behind it?
Yan Siming wanted to know how the woman would deal with this so-called new evidence. He was quite intrigued.
Xiao Lingyu did not deny anything. Instead, she looked at Lin Xiangyu with a faint smile on her face. "Lin Xiangyu, were you following me? Otherwise, why do you have so many photos of me on your phone?"
Lin Xiangyu had the reply ready. She happened to be at the hotel when she bumped into this atrocity. However, Xiao Lingyu didn't give her a chance to say her piece. "Oh, I know. You must be jealous of me. I heard from Chen Ran that you confessed to him."
Lin Xiangyu's face immediately paled as soon as Xiao Lingyu revealed this piece of information. The others looked at Lin Xiangyu with a strange expression.
Lin Xiangyu liked Manager Chen?
They really did not know that.
Lin Xiangyu panicked and tried to explain herself, "You... you're talking nonsense!"
She did like Manager Chen, but that couldn't be exposed because she knew that the chairman's daughter also liked Manager Chen. That woman, Zhao Wenman, was extremely jealous and ruthless. If Zhao Wenman found out Lin Xiangyu liked Manager Chen, her life would be over!
Xiao Lingyu chuckled, "New Island Cafe 101. Does that ring any bell?"
As soon as Xiao Lingyu said that, Lin Xiangyu's pupils constricted. Her slightly pale face turned even paler, and she could not help but take half a step back.
Everyone noticed her abnormal behavior.
Lin Xiangyu's eyes darted about in fear. When she finally noticed the others staring at her, she quickly composed herself. She suppressed the panic in her heart and shouted back, "I don't know what you mean! Xiao Lingyu, don't change the topic! You've prostituted yourself to another man. How can you face Manager Chen? Everyone knows how good Manager Chen is to you. But you cheated on him with an ugly man. Manager Chen is so handsome. He must be blind to love someone like you!"
Lin Xiangyu became more agitated. She continued to curse, "Who are you to be jealous of Manager Chen? I did have a cup of coffee with him. But we're colleagues. How can you slander our names like that?"
Lin Xiangyu's words were unpleasant, but Xiao Lingyu only smiled.
Instead of getting angry, Xiao Lingyu chuckled, "It seems like I've touched on a sore spot. Furthermore, I didn't mention anything about a coffee date between you and Manager Chen? I have to say... Your guilt is showing."
Xiao Lingyu didn't wait for Lin Xiangyu to reply. Xiao Lingyu's expression turned up with disgust. "Besides, if you fancy the jerk that much, I'll give him to you. How about that?"
At that moment, Chen Ran and Zhao Wenman walked out of the elevator. They heard Xiao Lingyu's last sentence.

章 6: A Hickey
A jerk? Everyone was stunned by Xiao Lingyu's choice of words.
Everyone knew Xiao Lingyu and Manager Chen Ran were a couple. Chen Ran treated Xiao Lingyu very well, even though the latter was quite unattractive. It made the women in the company envious and jealous. Chen Ran was meticulous in the ways he cared about Xiao Lingyu.
At work, Chen Ran couldn't keep Xiao Lingyu by his side, so he asked his friends to take good care of Xiao Lingyu. He would patiently teach her if she had something she didn't understand.
Off work, Chen Ran also lavished Xiao Lingyu with attention. Xiao Lingyu was a workaholic, so much so that she would sometimes forget to eat. So, Chen Ran would call a takeout for Xiao Lingyu every day at mealtimes. He would also call her to remind her to eat.
Therefore, all the women in the company were jealous of Xiao Lingyu. They all wished Chen Ran was their boyfriend. So Chen Ran became the dream guy of many female workers.
Many girls had confessed to Chen Ran, but they were all rejected. They turned their bitterness towards Xiao Lingyu and tried to trip her whenever they had the chance.
Xiao Lingyu and Chen Ran were the paragons of love. No one could shake their relationshio. This meant that Xiao Lingyu was the target of many women at the company.
Therefore, when they found out Xiao Lingyu had slept with another man and betrayed a good man like Chen Ran, these women secretly rejoiced. They immediately rallied around Chen Ran and rebuked Xiao LIngyu.
However, the perfect man they adored was deemed a jerk by Xiao Lingyu! This puzzled many people.
Just the day before, Xiao Lingyu was heads over heels with Chen Ran, so what changed?
Chen Ran exited the elevator and heard Xiao Lingyu call him a jerk. His face turned lived. Zhao Wenman beside him sneered slightly. She turned her body sideways and whispered into Chen Ran's ear. "Looks like you're not that important to her after all. All those years you've treated her so well, and it has all been for nothing!" Her words were dripping with mockery.
Chen Ran's face was white from anger. He wanted to rush over to shake Xiao Lingyu, but he forced himself to calm down for the sake of his plan and future.
He strode towards Xiao Lingyu. He asked with concern. "Yu 'Er, what's wrong? Who bullied you!" His sharp eyes scanned the surroundings and said, "I'll protect you! But you shouldn't say things in anger."
He emphasized the second phrase of his statement. He was telling everyone that Xiao Lingyu was calling him a jerk because she was not thinking straight.
Chen Ran was the perfect boyfriend. He cared deeply about Xiao Lingyu. He did everything for her and fended her from the world.
However, Xiao Lingyu realized that this was his way of controlling her. He had painted out the path for Xiao Lingyu's life, and she only needed to follow his orders. Xiao Lingyu was his puppet. Whenever the puppet wanted to go her own way, Chen Ran would patiently ease her back under his control.
Chen Ran assumed Xiao Lingyu would follow his words and admit her mistakes like she usually did. Xiao Lingyu would fix his image.
However, this time, Xiao Lingyu only looked at him coldly. She flashed him a frigid smile and asked, "Didn't you see the photo?"
She then glanced at Zhao Wenman, who arrived with Chen Ran. The hatred was deep in her eyes.
Chen Ran's expression froze. Then, he asked stiffly, "Photo? What Photo?" He was slightly surprised. 'Has she discovered something?'
Things didn't happen the way he expected. He felt some changes in Xiao Lingyu, but he couldn't pinpoint them. But what he needed to do was continue his role as the victim.
Xiao Lingyu didn't want to play this game with Chen Ran. She was not interested.
Xiao Lingyu chuckled, "Chen Ran, you didn't see the picture of me at the hotel with a man on your phone or computer? Your girlfriends didn't tell you?"
Xiao Lingyu glanced at Lin Xiangyu and then Zhao Wenman when she said the word, girlfriends.
Zhao Wenman frowned, and her eyes glinted, but she didn't say anything.
Chen Ran was shocked. He was puzzled. He did not know how to respond to Xiao Lingyu's question.
Before he came down from his office, he had already pictured the image in his mind. Xiao Lingyu would face criticism from the whole company. Everyone would look down on her, and she'd be on the verge of breaking down.
Then, he would come to question her about her betrayal. He would be painted as the victim, and everyone would sympathize with him.
Then, the news of his engagement with Zhao Wenman would not be questioned. They would receive everyone's blessings.
But when he arrived, Chen Ran realized everything was different from what he expected.
Chen Ran and Zhao Wenwan didn't receive any news when they were upstairs, so they decided to come down in person. But as soon as they stepped out of the elevator, Xiao Lingyu called him a jerk and was about to give him away to someone else!
He was so pissed!
But he believed it could still be rectified. Xiao Lingyu was soft-hearted and easily bullied. Whenever he pushed slightly, she would always admit she was wrong. So why didn't that happen this time?
Chen Ran had many questions, but he had something else to do.
Chen Ran shook his head. "Yu 'Er, my only girlfriend is you." Then he turned his face up with shock as if something had just hit him. "But what did you say earlier? You went to a hotel with another man?" Chen Ran was in disbelief.
Internally he sighed. 'Things are going back on track.'
Since Xiao Lingyu had admitted everything, Chen Ran would still be the victim.
Lin Xiangyu saw the anxiety on Chen Ran's face, and she added, "That's right, Manager Chen. Xiao Lingyu sold her body to another man at the hotel yesterday night. Look, I have the evidence here!" She showed the photo to Chen Ran. "Manager Chen, I saw Xiao Lingyu book a room with a middle-aged man with a big belly with my own eyes. That man is ugly. I have no idea why she would go with him. Unless... she knows the man is rich." Lin Xiangyu's eyes colored with disdain.
Chen Ran was dumbfounded. It was like he couldn't accept he had been betrayed by his lover.
He suddenly grabbed Xiao Lingyu's thin shoulders tightly. The buttons on her shirt loosened, and her collar opened. There was a hickey on her neck.
The hickey was from a man's kiss.
Chen Ran saw this and his pupils trembled. It was as if he couldn't believe his eyes. He raised his hand and swung his palm at Xiao Lingyu's face.
