Chapter 17: Exposure III
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Even though it had been more than two months since she got together with Huo Yunting, she still felt unbearably awkward around him.
When it was finally over, she went straight for the exit, but Huo Yunting pulled her into the next cubicle and pressed his cold, thin lips over her rosy lips.
This was a public area. Lu Zhaoyang was horrified at the thought of doing this with him right here but she struggled in vain.
Before she was completely overwhelmed by Huo Yunting, Lu Zhaoyang heard him tease her.
“Look, those supplements you gave me worked.”
Lu Zhaoyang wanted to vomit blood in disgust.
That was just a tiny prank, but he still held it over her head after so long!
Lu Zhaoyang could hardly protest, however, and certainly not deny him of this. She pushed her thoughts away and tried to protect the last shred of clarity left in her mind.
The two of them did not hear the quiet shuffling feet typical of the fairer s.e.x outside the door. When the intruders approached the cubicle, they froze when they heard voices from inside.
Mo Shan stopped Yu Man’er from speaking, and then listened intently. Her expression was icy cold.
“Huo.. Yunting… People… will come in here…”
“Hush.”
“…”
There was the sound of more kissing. Mo Shan stood rooted to her current spot, with her face darkened and her eyes as cold as the dead of winter.
Yu Man’er was surprised as well. She was frightened and panicking, but she mouthed her words to Mo Shan.
Should we stop them?
Yu Man’er looked back at the closed cubicle door and wondered if the question was timed badly.
Mo Shan felt utterly humiliated. She had lowered herself and made friends with Yu Man’er in order to know more about Huo Yunting, but now both of them had come to realize this horrible secret!
Get out!
She signalled to Yu Man’er, and then took one last look at the cubicle door before quietly stepping out of the washroom.
When both of them had gone far enough, Yu Man’er hummed and said, “I did tell you that the president and Secretary Lu had something between them. Now that you heard it yourself, you believe me, right?”
Mo Shan clenched her hands tightly, clenching her delicate nails into her palms until they bled but oblivious to the pain.
She made frequent visits to the office recently. Of course, it was because she had heard of the rumours about Huo Yunting and Lu Zhaoyang.
Even though they were not related by blood, there was still the relations.h.i.+p between their parents to consider. Besides, they seemed to behave normally with each other, and Lu Zhaoyang had even called her sister-in-law. There was no reason for her to suspect them.
Now, however…
Lu Zhaoyang!
Mo Shan’s expression twisted. She felt a sudden urge to tell everyone about this.
