The Villain's Wife Chapter 551 Classic Strategy

The Villain's Wife 551 Classic Strategy"Of course it is!" Qiao Qiao answered without batting an eyelid. Who else would she blame in all this? "Everything started when they offered me something. My guess is… they are not even planning to give me the contract in the first place. All they wanted was to find someone fool to do their bidding."

Qiao Qiao said as anger surged through her like a magma. She clenched her hands, her knuckles turning white. "I don't have any intention of fighting with you. But… what they offered was truly… Now that I thought about it. It was just too good to be true." She added as she eyed Lily's smiling face.
"Is that so," Lily said calmly. "So… what do you need in return? This information is not for free, yes?" she asked.
"My career." She answered almost immediately. "I want it back."
Lily snorted. She stared at Qiao Qiao's serious face. "Do you think… I'm a god?" she laughed. "What makes you think that I can just give it to you like that?"
"You ruined me! Surely, you have a way to give it back to me, right? All this news… you can remove it. You can even ask Cindy and Manager Hao to take me back. Isn't this what you are good at?"
"So you are not only a fool. You are also delusional." Lily pursed her lips. She actually didn't know if she would laugh or cry at this woman's stupidity.
"What are you saying?" Qiao Qiao asked. "You — I already told you everything that would help you. Why can't you help me with the issues that I am currently facing?"
"What about your lover? He is also very capable of doing this." Lily said.
"Lover?" Qiao Qiao sneered. The word only made her more emotional "That man… That man is going to clear his reputation and leave me." A pang of pain rushed through her chest. She immediately furrowed her brows. She should feel nothing but anger towards Yu Jing. Why is she feeling sad now?
"Miss Qiao… you don't seem to understand something." Lily started. "To be honest… I don't have the time for pointless discussions and I couldn't lower my brain just so I could accommodate yours."
"You— "
"I am not done talking." Lily interrupted her. "Yu Jing is still in love with you. He won't abandon you just like this."
"But— "
"I said… do not interrupt me." Lily said, her voice stern. "Your name and Yu Jing's name is connected. If he… would not help you out, then you could use the media to your advantage. You can use the media to criticize him and he knows this."
Lily continued. "So… helping you would be a logical thing to do. He might not show it… or say it… but the man still likes you. Just wait and see."
"So — you're saying that I can't do anything but wait?" Yu Jing's words about her hiding echoed in her mind. It is possible that… She swallowed her non-existent saliva. Was it possible that Yu Jing will forget about everything that happened and… will forgive her?
The thought of Yu Jing forgiving her immediately made her ecstatic. She pursed her lips and carefully thought about Lily's words. Yu Jing let her stay in the hotel that night. He also gave her a good sum of money as 'payment'. He might have stared at her coldly and said some really hurtful things.
But his actions… his actions still showed that he cared for her. Even last night, the man changed her clothing and let her sleep in bed with him. Even after she disrespected him and his family.
Qiao Qiao's eyes turned bright. The thought of losing Yu Jing made her desperate, and the thought of earning his forgiveness made her so happy. Was it possible that she had developed feelings for the guy?
"So… All I can do now… is wait." This time, it wasn't a question. She was not trying to ask anyone. She was trying to console herself, make her feel a little better.
"Do you see it now?" Lily's lips turned upwards. "Emotions are a very complicated matter, Miss Qiao. You should not underestimate it."
"I — Are you sure that this will happen? Are you sure that he will do something about the current issue?"
"Of course he will," Lily assured. Yu Jing's reputation is at stake here. Just like every businessman, Yu Jing will surely guard his reputation. This is only a natural thing to do.
Seeing this, Qiao Qiao nodded and gave her a sad smile. "Well… then… I — I will leave now. He told me to hide and not show myself in the public for a while. So… I— "
"I hope… we will never see each other again." Lily said and smiled at Qiao Qiao. She doesn't have any idea about the things that Qiao Qiao thought of. However, judging from the spark in the woman's eyes, it was obvious that she thought Yu Jing will still help her out.
She was wrong. Lily was sure that Yu Jing will use Qiao Qiao's name to save himself. Yu Jing grew up in a very competitive environment with people always scheming behind their backs just to gain their grandfather's approval. He might look a little dense, but Lily was sure the man should not be underestimated.
These conclusions made her think about the kind of relationship that Yu Jing has with Qiao Qiao. A man who would do what he did just for Qiao Qiao would not just give her up because of one single incident. He liked her. That is a fact. He might even be obsessed with her.
Of course, Lily does not have a way to confirm this. However, she was almost sure that Yu Jing is certainly not done with Qiao Qiao. If her guess was right... then Yu Jing is scheming to permanently have Qiao Qiao stay with him.
Make her lose her hope, her friends, her career, her everything.
The game was really easy. First, Yu Jing isolated Qiao Qiao. He made her feel helpless, hopeless. Then she would think that the only person who could help her was none other than Yu Jing. She would then beg for his help. And he would reluctantly give her one last chance to prove herself.
Because of this... Qiao Qiao would be very grateful and might even decide to dedicate her entire life to the person who saved her. It will be a win-win for Yu Jing.
Make her lose all hope, then save her when she was about to drown. Isn't that a classic strategy used to manipulate someone?
Qiao Qiao bit her lips as she silently nodded. After this, she would never want or deal with Lily ever again! She then left without saying another word to Lily.
"President… Miss Qiao must have thought that she could still bewitch CEO Yu." Yang Mi sneered as she stared at Qiao Qiao's back.
"Actually… you are right." Lily answered. "She already bewitched him. This... She can only blame herself for having this kind of ending." Knowing Qiao Qiao, she would never accept that she did something wrong. Lily laughed inwardly. This matter... is no longer her business.
Yang Mi looked at Lily's side profile. She did not understand what her point was. However, she knew that Qiao Qiao's ending would not be any good.
"She deserves it." Yang Mi uttered, her gaze dark. "She deserves it."
