Inside the office of An Qing"s CEO, the atmosphere was not too good. As two figures stood up in close distance, another sat on one of the couches. However, at this moment, a folder is opened on the floor with the doc.u.ments inside all scatter out for anyone to see.
Chen Limei"s eyes landed on the doc.u.ments and her eyes widen as if they could fall from their sockets at any second.
At first, she thought it do be some contract for her to leave An Qing that involved a blank cheque.
However....
"H…How…"
With a shaking voice, she could only choke out one word in a stutter.
One the floor, it was not only doc.u.ment papers of everything she has done, but also full-size photos of her meeting in private with businessmen and businesswomen.
However, it wasn"t just any professional meetings, it was also the affairs she had.
All the affairs she"s had and did to keep the business running for An Qing.
Her lower lip trembles and she could not look away from the floor. Before she could react, he legs turned weak and she slumps onto the floor without a care about the pain on her knees.
Some photos had her in clothes while some were naked photos of her. In each photo, she is seen with a different man even woman.
How could Yue Ling get her hands on these?
She had been so careful and done everything in secret. No one else should know about this besides those she had an affair with.
"Amusing isn"t it?"
Yue Ling"s angelic voice sounds as Chen Limei kneeled on the floor.
Anyone who sees this scene would think of Yue Ling as the evil villainess in a novel and Chen Limei the pitiful protagonist.
However, no matter what others may think about her, Yue Ling did not care. The world can see her however they want, because the world itself is already corrupted.
She leans against the couch and decides to partake the roll of the evil villainess. After all, it was people like Chen Limei who made her this way.
Her left-hand raise, and she stares at the one of a kind beauty on her ring finger.
"You hold the deepest and darkest secrets of those around you, while I hold yours."
Her hand lowers onto her lap and she turns to look at the pitiful looking Chen Limei.
"Did you really think that I wouldn"t find out about any of this?"
Seeing Chen Limei"s head still hung low without a response, she looks away and a soft, yet evil chuckle escapes her lip.
"Chen Limei ah, I once thought you were a cleaver woman. However, you are indeed too naïve. Every move you made I was always ten steps ahead."
Listening to Yue Ling"s words, Chen Limei felt as if someone had dumped buckets of ice-cold water onto her. She slumps more onto the floor and could not believe this is happening to her.
She had already lost face in front of the entire world with her loss and now, Yue Ling is pouring more salt on her yet to heal wound.
If this is really a dream, she wish someone will wake her up from it.
However, to her unfortunate, this is not a dream but reality that stabbed her hard on the back for her crimes.
"Lies…"
She clench her fists tightly. Even with her nails digging painfully into her skin, she could not feel the pain at all.
"LIES!!"
Grabbing the photos scattered on the floor, she crumbles them and throws them at Yue Ling. Only, the photos did not reach the model. Anger rises inside her and her eyes turned red as she glares murderously.
"You tampered with these photos! Every one of them has been photoshopped! You think something like can ruin me?! Keep dreaming!"
Yue Ling stares at Chen Limei like she was an idiot and sighed inside. She slowly stood up from the couch and her words fell.
"Do you think I would tamper some photos just to get rid of you?"
She calmly walks to the woman in steady slow steps.
"Not only am I removing you from your position as CEO…"
Her words pause and she stops in front of Chen Limei. She stares down at the woman with eyes like a deep ocean as her words continue.
"You are going to pay the debt you owe."
"Debt? What debt?! I don"t owe you anything! I haven"t done anything wrong to offend anyone!"
Chen Limei quickly spat out her words in refute. She looks up at Yue Ling with raging tearful eyes due to her anger.
She may have schemed in the dark with these affairs of hers, but she has never done anything to wrong Yue Ling.
Staring back at the murderous eyes looking at her, Yue Ling did not flinch at all. She has gone through enough in life far beyond anyone"s imagination and eyes like this do not terrify her.
As her hal-abeoji once said to her, no matter how one looks at you, always meet them eye to eye. Show them you are not afraid of them.
Yue Ling softly chuckles and glance down to the photos that have not been crumbled. She slowly lowers herself to be at eye level with Chen Limei and slides a photo in front of her.
"You haven"t done anything wrong?"
It was a photo of Chen Limei smiling happily over dinner with an Italian man. From the looks of it, one can see that they are inside a private room inside a fancy restaurant.
"What about bribing the other branches?"
Hearing her words, Chen Limei stares at the photo and her expression pales more than it already has. However, she does not say a word but gulp.
"No?"
Yue Ling lightly shook her head in mockery. She sighs pitifully at the woman and reach for another photo.
"What about blackmailing those in the industry?"
This time it was a photo of Chen Limei without any clothes on. She was inside a hotel room and one can see the side view of her face as she enjoys a night of pleasure with a middle-aged man.
Chen Limei"s eyes shook with her lips at the disgusting photo of her and some man. She never wanted to stoop so low to do any of this, but to keep her position steady, she had to…
As she thought about all the disgusting men she had to sleep with, Yue Ling"s next words struck her like thunder on a rainy day.
"Or.... was it murder Chen Yifeng?"
