Chapter 453 - 453: I Want To Beat Someone Up
"Yeah, Yao Xin's best treasure is her persona and image. Regardless of what she does, everyone will forgive her on the account that she's still young and inexperienced. Nowadays, straightforward people are quite popular in the entertainment industry too," the deputy director said.
"Deputy director, do you know how Mr. Huo Zihang reacted when he saw the scandalous news about Yan Jinyi?"
The thought of Huo Zihang made Yao Xin blush coyly and she believed that he was a playboy only because he hadn't met the perfect girl for him.
'It seems that he was paying so much attention to Yan Jinyi, only because he respects his second sister-in-law very much. Now that Yan Jinyi is about to be boycotted, it's my turn to be in the limelight.'
'I definitely resemble Second Young Mistress Huo more.'
'Don't men these days prefer pure and chaste women who respect themselves? I seem to fit that criterion!'
All of a sudden, a slender figure walked past the door.
Yao Xin suddenly stood up and said, "How can Yan Jinyi have the cheek to show up at the office? Let's go over and congratulate her."
The deputy director and manager both looked at each other, finding Yao Xin harder and harder to control.
As soon as Yan Jinyi stepped into the elevator and was about to go upstairs, Yan Jinyi barged in with her people.
"Sister Jinyi, what brings you to the office today? There are lots of reporters outside. You're not hurt, are you?" Yao Xin asked with a hypocritical smile.
"Why should I be injured?" Yan Jinyi asked coldly response.
'You're still pretending, huh? God knows how much hate you are receiving now."
Yao Xin gibed in a naive and innocent tone, "But, Sister Jinyi, you're so impressive. You actually got to know so many big bosses. I heard that the men you drank with last night are senior executives of their respective companies!"
"What bosses?"
'Go on pretending.' Yao Xin secretly thought to herself as she was certain that Yan Jinyi knew about the scandalous news that had gone viral on the internet.
"Sister Jinyi, everyone has a different style of living and I think it's really impressive that you have connections to the senior executives of big companies. Those netizens are just jealous of you because they lack the opportunity to get to know so many people. That's why they're hating on you."
Only then did Yan Jinyi come to a sudden realization. "Oh, so that's what you're referring to."
As she spoke, she folded an arm and rested her other arm on it while holding her chin in her hand. Sizing Yao Xin up carefully, Yan Jinyi said seriously, "I thought the person in those photos was you!"
A trace of clear panic flashed in Yao Xin's eyes and she pursed her lips while trying to force herself to smile perfunctorily. "Hows is that possible? I've never been to a bar before. How can that person be me?"
"That's right, Jinyi, I know you don't like the fact that Yao Xin is being promoted as your lookalike but it's not her fault. The netizens are the ones who gave her that nickname."
Yao Xin's manager stood up for her too. "Jinyi, we know you joined the company earlier than Yao Xin, but Yao Xin has always been a simple-minded girl since she was a child. You can't blame her now that you're in trouble."
"Who are you?"
Yan Jinyi stretched her back and continued, "Did I say you could interrupt me? I do like bullying her just because I'm more senior than her, and I want to hit her too. What can you do about that?"
As Yan Jinyi spoke, she took a step forward and reached out without warning to slap Yao Xin on her face. "You'd better clear up the mess you created before I intervene. Otherwise, I'll make sure I teach you a hard lesson."
After saying that, she left without looking back.
Yao Xin covered her face with her hand and looked at Yan Jinyi's back in disbelief. After Yan Jinyi entered the elevator, she stomped her feet in exasperation. "How dare that bitch Yan Jinyi lay a hand on me? Why didn't you guys help me at all?"
The manager and deputy director froze right on the spot, just as shocked as her. After a long time, they finally returned to their senses.
"Yan Jinyi hits people all the time."
Besides, she would even have sufficient reasons to back her actions up.
