Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat! Chapter 42: Bai Yueguang’s Stand-In
In the group chat among a few girlfriends, Wang Nan Nan started to @ Mu Chen.
[Ms. Chenchen, what does Shen Liao an by this? How could he admit Jiang Lai is his girlfriend? Is he crazy?!]
[What’s the situation now?]
[Didn’t you say you and Shen Liao were just having a tiff?]
[Why don’t you go and ask Shen Liao again what’s going on?]
[After all, he used to like you so much]
Li Yahan agreed from behind.
[You two have liked each other for so many years, maybe he’s just posting those things on purpose to upset you]
Mu Chen’s silence made the two of them start to panic. They were originally planning a shopping and beauty trip, but now both were holding their phones, full of anxiety.
"Shen Liao can’t be so blind, can he? He actually stepped in to confirm Jiang Lai’s identity!"
"Doesn’t he know that by saying this, he’s indirectly proving that Mu Chen is the one copying!"
Wang Nan Nan was so angry her teeth hurt. The reason she supported Mu Chen wasn’t because of their great relationship, she just couldn’t stand Jiang Lai and wanted to see Jiang Lai ruined forever.
But now the situation was wrong.
Shen Liao was actually backing Jiang Lai!
The reason they dared to attack Jiang Lai so recklessly was because they were sure Jiang Lai had no support.
Li Yahan was even more anxious than Wang Nan Nan.
She didn’t even have ti to get angry, she was more fearful, mixed with jealousy.
Now even a fool could see that Shen Liao was protecting Jiang Lai, so those who opposed Jiang Lai, wouldn’t they beco thorns in Shen Liao’s side?
The Li Family was still hoping to gain sothing from the Shen Family, and most importantly, an important project was in Shen Liao’s hands, and unless he spoke, the project certainly wouldn’t go to the Li Family.
"What should we do, what should we do, does Shen Liao still like Mu Chen? Is it too late for Mu Chen to pursue Shen Liao now?"
Wang Nan Nan kept a straight face.
"I don’t know."
At this mont, in Mu Chen’s studio, Wei Fu angrily swept all the docunts off the table onto the floor.
"Shen Liao really is blind! Is his brain broken?! He even treasures soone like Jiang Lai!"
Mu Chen sat at the other end, not looking much better than Wei Fu, she instinctively grasped her dress tightly, her heart hanging up high, that feeling of sothing important about to be taken away by soone else left her gasping for breath like never before.
"Chenchen, go find Shen Liao and win him back, don’t let that bitch Jiang Lai have him."
Mu Chen frowned, thinking deeply, her figure rigid as she sat in the studio until nightfall.
At the Longheng Group Headquarters Company, in the top floor office, Assistant Dong knocked on the door and reported quietly.
"Boss, Miss Mu is here to see you."
Shen Liao just lifted his head from the docunt, and upon hearing Mu Chen was here, he continued to pick up another docunt to read.
"Let her in, and turn all the lights on in the office."
What was initially just the desk area brightly lit was now the whole office illuminated.
Mu Chen walked in with a bag, wearing a deep blue dress, her long hair gently pinned up and secured with a simple and plain jade hairpin.
"Ah Liao, I want to talk to you."
Shen Liao put down the docunt, signaling for Assistant Dong to leave the door open.
"Sit."
Mu Chen sat on the sofa, while Shen Liao remained at his desk, more than two ters away, she couldn’t even see his face clearly.
"Ah Liao, I left five years ago because I thought I wasn’t worthy of you, I wanted to beco better, good enough to stand by your side..."
Shen Liao looked at her, his expression cold.
"If you’re here to tell this, then we have nothing to talk about."
Mu Chen took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing her inner disappointnt.
"Shen Liao, I thought you knew, I’ve liked you ever since I was sixteen, I thought... you were waiting for all these years too."
"I initially thought I was waiting for you too, but now I know, I wasn’t waiting for anyone, I just hadn’t t Jiang Lai yet."
ntioning Jiang Lai’s na, Shen Liao’s expression softened noticeably.
"I probably didn’t like you either, I just thought you were a good match, a lady from a reputable family. If I never t the person I love in this life, you would make the most suitable wife, fortunately, you always turned down."
Mu Chen’s eyes widened abruptly, tears streaming down imdiately.
She couldn’t help but tremble.
"Shen Liao, why are you being so cruel to ? How can you so easily fall for soone else?"
Shen Liao checked the ti, packed his things, and prepared to leave.
"Sorry, I’m off work, your tears lost their effect on five years ago, instead of crying to , save them for those fans who still believe in you."
"You... you don’t believe ?"
Shen Liao fastened his cufflinks, glanced casually at Mu Chen, his tone unchanged.
"I believe in Jiang Lai."
With that, he strode out of the office, not caring at all about Mu Chen behind him.
Secretary Dong wisely contacted the driver to prepare the car and reminded her as Mu Chen walked out, her steps heavy.
"Miss Mu, it’s a long way and dark, take care on the road."
Mu Chen got into the car, dazed, as Wei Fu’s call ca again, saying Jiang Lai’s lawyer’s letter had been delivered to her.
"Relax, nothing can be seen from the video, as long as you don’t say anything, you’ll be fine."
Wei Fu remained sowhat calm.
"What are you afraid of? Can a minor Jiang Lai really control ?"
"By the way, have you sorted out the backup materials?"
"Don’t worry, even with Shen Liao involved, he won’t find any evidence."
"But didn’t she say there were surveillance caras in the room?"
Wei Fu was silent for a while.
"Impossible, if she had surveillance, she would’ve brought it out long ago, no way she would wait until now with all the abuse, Jiang Lai is a person who retaliates against grievances, she wouldn’t endure this long."
Mu Chen frowned, feeling uneasy.
"Xiao Fu, thank you, you’re my best friend, I really don’t know what I would do without you... I didn’t expect there to be a Jiang Lai between and Shen Liao, a... third party."
Wei Fu was enraged, her fiancé had betrayed her by cheating, causing her deep-seated hatred for third parties, especially soone like Jiang Lai from a humble background, stirring her inner pain.
Mu Chen seed to realize her words had impacted Wei Fu.
"Xiao Fu, I’m really sorry, I shouldn’t have dragged you into this, I’ll handle the rest myself, it’s better if you don’t get involved anymore, I believe justice exists in this world, and won’t let soone like Jiang Lai have a good life."
Wei Fu let out a cold laugh.
"That saying ’heaven will deal with the wicked’ is ant for good people to hear, you’re too kind, that’s why you’re walking down my old path, Mu Chen rest assured, I’m always on your side."
