Just as the woman was still fantasizing about her future life—that she would still be glamorous after leaving the Beautiful Land, even considering how to split the Qin Family’s assets later—she suddenly realized someone was approaching her.
She quickly suppressed her almost-smile, putting back on a pure and pitiful expression, timidly turning her head and looking up.
But when she saw the girl among the two people, her eyes flickered, and a surge of jealousy rose in her heart.
The girl was far too beautiful; both her figure and face were superior to hers…
Then Yun Mengxi noticed the girl’s unfriendly gaze at her. Shifting her sight, she saw the front desk employee beside her.
From the information she had gathered these past days, she quickly understood Lin Xinyuan’s identity: she was Qin Nanfeng’s current fiancée.
But so what? Everything was within her expectations…
Men are like that… still that fool. I have him completely in my palm.
Thinking this, she barely suppressed her malice toward the girl and maintained her expression.
When Lin Xinyuan approached, she put on a confused look and asked timidly, “Who are you?”
Seeing her pitiful appearance, Lin Xinyuan felt a strange sensation.
She gives me a feeling similar to Li Xue and Lin Shiyu…
Suppressing her annoyance, she didn’t answer the question but instead asked, “What’s your relationship with Qin Nanfeng?”
Lin Xinyuan forced herself to stay calm, imagining the stern expression Sister Yun from HR usually wore.
But she was too inexperienced, and Yun Mengxi immediately saw through her bluff.
Yun Mengxi became even more smug, feeling this was an easy win.
“N-no… no relationship… just friends…”
Yun Mengxi said this, awkwardly turning her head away as if too guilty to move, but her face was flushed with feigned shyness.
Hearing this, the girl’s anger flared.
What the hell? You schemed against Feng Ge yourself, and now you’re acting like the victim?
Without hesitation, Lin Xinyuan didn’t want to save face for her.
Glancing at Song Ziwei, who was watching the drama, she said, “Sister Song, you can go back to work now.”
Song Ziwei wanted to say something, but seeing the plea in Lin Xinyuan’s eyes, she sighed and walked back.
Since the Boss Lady said so, she wouldn’t argue…
Once Song Ziwei left, Lin Xinyuan’s mood was complicated.
Biting her pink lips, she stared at the theatrically gifted woman in front of her. Composing herself, her gaze grew resolute.
“Stop pretending! I know everything about you.”
She had no time to bicker with someone like this, so she cut straight to the point.
Hearing this, Yun Mengxi, who had been on the verge of tears, was stunned. She hadn’t expected the girl to be so direct.
Shouldn’t she have argued with me first, then lost her temper and hit me, giving me a chance to play the victim?
But seeing the unmistakable understanding in Lin Xinyuan’s eyes, Yun Mengxi didn’t care how she knew. It no longer mattered.
Seeing no one around, she suddenly curled her lips, no longer needing to hide.
“As you wish.”
Yun Mengxi’s smile was beautiful, her voice gentle and crisp, but Lin Xinyuan felt a chill in her heart and grew even more disgusted with her.
She really is a master of switching faces… no wonder she deceived Feng Ge back then.
What must Feng Ge have been like back then?
Thinking this, Lin Xinyuan’s beautiful face showed a hint of contemplation.
For a moment, she forgot that Yun Mengxi was still there, and a shy blush crept onto her face, cute and sweet.
Then, as if recalling what that person was like as an innocent high school boy, she couldn’t help but laugh.
‘I’d love to see that pure Feng Ge… he must have been so easy to bully, right?’
Seeing this, Yun Mengxi’s carefully prepared words died in her throat. She was baffled.
What the hell?
Is this girl crazy?
I’m showing my fangs, ready to steal your fiancé, and you’re making that weird expression?
Could it be…
Thinking this, the woman felt a pang of panic.
Could Qin Nanfeng’s girlfriend be an NTR enthusiast?
Then I’m playing right into her hands, and she’ll like Qin Nanfeng even more?
If they don’t break up, I’ll never get my chance!
Yun Mengxi’s face grew darker. Her earlier arrogance and contempt vanished, replaced by dread.
This was her only chance…
She couldn’t become a citizen of the Beautiful Land, and only Qin Nanfeng—that good-looking but brainless fool—could give her the glamorous life of a rich wife.
Other rich heirs weren’t that stupid…
No… I have to press my advantage. I can’t be passive.
She was tired of working day in and day out, being groped by those people…
That’s why Yun Mengxi had quit her job without telling her family, come to apologize to Qin Nanfeng, and tried to rekindle their relationship.
Absolutely unacceptable!
For a moment, Yun Mengxi’s expression shifted constantly, countless thoughts flashing through her mind.
She looked around irritably, but then her peripheral vision caught a familiar figure.
It was a man with impeccable looks and build. He wore a black suit with an overcoat, his face handsome, a faint smile playing on his lips.
He was undoubtedly the most attractive man Yun Mengxi had ever seen in real life.
Back then, she had pursued Qin Nanfeng largely because of his looks, but more as a game.
She had observed that his family seemed well-off.
But even if the youth’s appearance moved her, Yun Mengxi believed good looks couldn’t put food on the table; he was ultimately just a low-class person.
However, after they broke up and she learned his family background was far from ordinary, she regretted it.
Still, the ticket to her dream Beautiful Land was far more tempting.
Even so, Yun Mengxi had left herself a way out—she tearfully told Qin Nanfeng that his parents had forced them apart.
Now, that could finally serve as the foundation for their reunion. Not the best choice, but she could accept it.
Hmph, that fool should be grateful!
Ah… right, I’ve got it!
Seeing the youth had noticed them and was walking over, a dark glint flashed in Yun Mengxi’s eyes.
Yes… since the girl might have those kinks, she’ll despise me but definitely drive me away.
But then I won’t have a legitimate chance to get back together with Qin Nanfeng…
How can I get the wealth and status I want?
So, all I need is to make Qin Nanfeng hate her instead!
Having thought this, the malice in Yun Mengxi’s eyes almost overflowed, but like an Oscar-winning actress, she quickly suppressed it.
“S-sorry…”
The next moment, her face filled with fear.
She suddenly stumbled back several steps, then fell weakly to the ground, as if the girl had shoved her hard.
