Chapter 43: The Empress and the Mistress in the Same Frame
Chapter 43: The Empress and the Mistress in the Same Frame
I saw a little girl.
She definitely knows Yang Jun; he's cheating on her?!
Li Nanxi swallowed nervously. How did she end up eating so much gossip while attending a charity gala?
How should she remind Luo Xia and Yu Xingwan? She's caught in a dilemma...
"Hey Luo Xia, it's been so long since I've seen Yang Jun. Has he been busy all this time?" Li Nanxi subtly reminded her. After all, they'd been playing together for so long, and she couldn't bear to see her kept in the dark.
"Him? He's a workaholic, he's always at the company," Luo Xia said dismissively, though she was still a little scared about what had just happened.
"Haven't you been to the company in a long time?" Li Nanxi continued to ask. Normally, she wouldn't ask these questions.
Luo Xia also sensed something was wrong: "What's wrong, Nanxi? Why are you asking these questions today?"
"Ah...it's nothing. I just heard that your company hired a new young and capable female secretary. I thought you knew about it! I wanted to ask where you found such a talented person." Li Nanxi said with a smile.
She was truly exhausted, but she couldn't say it directly; Luo Xia definitely wouldn't believe her, but...
Luo Xia was taken aback: "Ah, this, I don't know! I can go back and ask him."
"Excuse me, may I pass?" Feng Qingqing walked over without anyone noticing.
[Feng Qingqing knew of Luo Xia's existence; she was very shrewd and calculating, and was deliberately trying to ingratiate herself with the Empress.]
Shen Wantang raised an eyebrow at her. Are people this bold now?
Is this a declaration of sovereignty?
Li Nanxi exclaimed upon seeing this, "This is..."
"What is it?" Yu Xingwan asked, puzzled.
"Ah, it's nothing. It's just that Luo Xia's husband recently hired a new secretary who looks quite like this lady." Li Nanxi nodded.
Upon hearing this, Feng Qingqing realized they were talking about her, so she sat down a short distance away.
"Hasn't your husband's secretary always been a man?" Yu Xingwan sensed something was wrong.
Previously, Feng Qingqing publicly announced her and Yang Jun's long-term love story, and they were an enviable model couple!
No women appeared around Yang Jun.
Luo Xia frowned and fell into deep thought. Even if she were slow-witted, she could tell something was wrong: "I don't know. I haven't paid much attention to company matters. It seems I need to go and ask."
[No need to ask, Yang Jun will be here with his little lover soon!] Shen Wantang was enjoying the gossip on the side.
"Luo Xia, you should be more careful with men." Yu Xingwan meant well, even though sometimes her words were indeed harsh.
Luo Xia nodded: "I haven't paid any attention to him during this time, because I trust him."
"Hello." Suddenly, a male voice appeared in Shen Wantang's ear.
She turned around and saw Lu Zhiyan.
"Hello." Shen Wantang nodded politely, but she was very excited inside.
[Two juicy stories in a row! Seriously... I'm so excited!]
I wonder if Lu Zhiyan will be promoted or demoted? (? ̄? ??  ̄??)
Ouch... hiss, hahahahahahahaha.
Li Nanxi suddenly blushed. How could her daughter-in-law have such a rich inner world?
"Ji Yushi didn't come?" Lu Zhiyan naturally kept her distance, otherwise her little boyfriend would get jealous.
Shen Wantang shook her head: "He's a workaholic, I can't control him."
"You and he grew up together?"
“Yes, we haven’t seen each other in a long time.” Lu Zhiyan nodded slightly. Actually, the two of them had a pretty good relationship.
[From childhood to adulthood? Did Lu Zhiyan ever have any improper thoughts about Ji Yushi?!]
[Ji Yu is so handsome, it's outrageous! Could it be that Lu Zhiyan has a crush on him but couldn't get him, which is why they haven't seen each other for so long?!]
[Oh my god! What have I discovered?!]
[Host, overthinking isn't a good thing either...]
Li Nanxi looked at Lu Zhiyan and then at Luo Xia, suddenly finding herself overwhelmed by all the gossip.
(Ten brain storage spaces, more than that and there's not enough room to store them all (?????????))
Fortunately, her son was not led astray by that brat Lu Zhiyan.
"Did you two have a fight?" Shen Wantang's gossipy nature was completely aroused.
Lu Zhiyan raised an eyebrow: "No, everyone is busy with work, so we gradually lost contact."
"I see..." Shen Wantang said, but why did she still feel a sense of loss?
"Hey!" Yu Xingwan suddenly pointed to the doorway.
Everyone's attention was drawn to her, and when they looked up, they saw a man in a black suit walk in.
Most of the people present knew each other, since they were all business people.
"Isn't that Yang Jun?" Li Nanxi covered her mouth, it was unbelievable! How did Tangtang know all this?
Luo Xia felt even more uncomfortable, because in the past, the two of them would always attend events together.
Nanxi and Xingwan invited her this time, so she didn't inform Yang Jun. She didn't expect him to come on his own.
What's he doing here? Is he going to buy her something, to surprise her?
Then they saw Yang Jun sit down next to a young girl, the same girl who had just walked past them.
Feng Qingqing knew of Luo Xia's existence, and she kept an eye on them out of the corner of her eye.
"Mr. Yang, why did you take so long to arrive? I was all alone here, completely unfamiliar with the place, it was so scary." Feng Qingqing carefully tugged at Yang Jun's sleeve and acted coquettishly.
Yang Jun had no idea that his wife was also at the party. He gently patted the back of her hand and said, "You're a grown woman, what are you afraid of? Do you think others will eat you?"
"Hehe, thank you, Mr. Yang, for broadening my horizons." Feng Qingqing smiled shyly, her smile was so bright!
Of course, he was smiling on purpose for Luo Xia's benefit.
"You're just too timid. You'll be fine if you come with me more often and broaden your horizons," Yang Jun chuckled. He loved his wife very much.
However, he hadn't felt that flutter of his heart in a long time, but with Feng Qingqing, he felt his heart beat again!
A feeling I've never had before.
Luo Xia watched their intimate interaction, her nails almost digging into her palms.
"How dare Yang Jun!" Luo Xia was furious. She trusted him so much, and loved him so much!
He actually cheated on her with someone else?!
"Don't rush, don't rush, let's take another look." Yu Xingwan pulled her back, afraid that she would rush forward.
Luo Xia's eyes reddened; the man she loved had actually cheated on her with another man.
"I understand, Mr. Yang. Then I'll trouble you to take me out to broaden my horizons!" Feng Qingqing was secretly delighted to see Luo Xia's exasperated look.
With the company boss being so rich, Feng Qingqing is sure she'll snag him!
Luo Xia was just an older woman; how could she possibly compare to her youth and beauty?
"Don't worry, just stay close to me." Yang Jun chuckled, he was genuinely somewhat attracted to Feng Qingqing.
As a result, he now tells Luo Xia he has to work overtime every day after get off work, but in reality he just goes shopping with Feng Qingqing.
