Hidden Marriage 99 Days: Please Restrain Yourself Chapter 528 - The Rumored Old, Ugly and Decrepit Sheng An Boss

Chapter 528: The Rumored Old, Ugly and Decrepit Sheng An Boss

This got Cheng Su even angrier. He raised his voice and said, “Our Sister Nian has been staying there for a long time. Even if you want to speak nonsense, you need to draw a line somewhere!”
Jiang Qian replied, “This exactly proves that they’ve been together a long time, the tramp!”
It was clear that she wouldn’t consider any other possibilities.
Jiang Qian spoke as though it was a fact.
Cheng Su shook with anger but did not know how to respond to her statement.
He looked at Li Beinian helplessly.
At this point, Li Beinian’s expression darkened as all eyes turned to look at her.
Given Jiang Qian’s insistence, it was obvious that it would turn into a mindless argument if she were to refute.
And if she were to start another fight, people would think that she was provoked because Jiang Qian was speaking the truth.
Li Beinian glanced at her with a smirk.
Jiang Qian was waiting. Waiting for Li Beinian to lose her cool, waiting for Li Beinian to fly off the handle.
But unexpectedly, the girl showed no such anger, and instead smiled faintly.
She turned around and said calmly, “Whom did you hear all these things from?”
Jiang Qian did not expect that. She paused and then said, “Why would I need to hear it from anyone? Everyone in the circle knows about it!”
“Oh?” Li Beinian straightened her posture and looked most surprised. Raising her eyebrows with her hands in her pockets, she continued, “If that’s the case, then it’s just baseless rumors, isn’t it?”
Jiang Qian fell silent for a moment and looked around.
No one seemed eager to speak up in her support.
Her initial intention was to provoke Li Beinian to fury so that she could corner the woman.
However, now Li Beinian’s calmness only served to make her look awkward.
Jiang Qian’s expression changed, and she said, “Stop pretending. You know it yourself whether I’m speaking the truth!”
“It’s exactly because I know it so clearly that I’m puzzled.” Li Beinian’s voice was calm, and she came across straightforwardly. She continued steadily, “You’re saying that I got together with some elderly man right after I separated from Mu Donglin?”
She sounded stumped but steady.
Jiang Qian said angrily, “This is a fact!”
“And how would you know about the staff dorm at Sheng An?”
Jiang Qian fell silent and immediately said evasively, “I heard about it!”
“Another question,” Li Beinian said as she took a step towards her, saying clearly and deliberately, “I’ve stayed at the staff dorm for a long time. At the time, Mu Donglin only just announced our engagement. Hence, are you saying that I gave up an excellent opportunity like him for the rumored ugly, old and decrepit Sheng An boss?”
At this point, Xie Yiyi immediately spoke up. “That’s right, it doesn’t make sense!”
The others agreed. “Exactly. Wouldn’t it be only too easy for a powerful man like Mu Donglin to provide her with all the resources she needs?”
“At the time, would Li Beinian have even needed to play with the unwritten rules?”
“Besides, Mu Donglin was super nice to Li Beinian at the time. The lovey-dovey way in which he looked at her made me cringe!”
Jiang Qian’s expression slightly changed as she said, “Who knows if you were trying to secure your position both ways? In case Mu Donglin dumped you, you’d have a safety net.”
“So, now I can foretell?” Li Beinian started laughing. “Just then I foretold which scrips each of us would get and made right guesses about our characters’ positions. I even knew that you would kick me. Hence, I injured and bruised myself beforehand so that I could frame you. And then I knew that I would break up with Mu Donglin, so I hooked up with the boss of Sheng An… Say, shouldn’t I be doing fortune-telling? I’d probably have a better future as a fortune-teller than being an actress?”
