It could be said that ever since Ye Yun was reborn, this evening was the happiest and most comfortable day for him. If it hadn't been interrupted by his little "cotton jacket," he might have had a deeper exchange with his wife. Even though it was disrupted now, it seemed success was not far off. How could he not be happy?
The next day was Saturday. Early in the morning, because Li Mengyao had to work overtime for half a day at the company, Ye Yun took Keke to her dance class.
Kexin Advertising Company.
As soon as Li Mengyao arrived at the company, she immediately sensed something was wrong. The employees, who should have been working diligently, were gathered together watching videos and discussing.
"Wow, look at this wedding, how grand! So many luxury cars! It's all over the internet now, I wonder which lucky girl managed to marry a man like this!"
"These wedding cars are too impressive. I heard it was right here in Jinling, but the pixelated quality makes it impossible to tell who that lucky girl is."
"Is that a Ferrari Enzo? I heard there are only three in all of China! Wow, that woman is so lucky."
"Whether a woman is lucky or not mainly depends on whether the man has money. Like someone at home, useless, only after his wife got promoted and a salary increase did he stubbornly buy a Levin. A Levin, tsk tsk, I wonder how much he owes on the loan for it."
The colleagues chattered, but their words all pointed towards Li Mengyao. Li Mengyao heard them, biting her lip. She knew very well that her position as team leader in the business cooperation group was obtained under questionable circumstances. Many whispered behind her back. It was understandable; they were all in the same position, and someone had taken a shortcut to get ahead. They wouldn't dare say it to her face, but who knew what slander they spread in private! She happened to be working overtime and overheard it.
"Oh, what you're saying, perhaps that Levin was a gift from a boss! Alright, alright, stop talking everyone, Team Leader Li is here. Team Leader Li, my colleagues were just chatting, you won't be angry, will you?"
Suddenly, Zeng Shaoyan, who had sharp eyes, spotted Li Mengyao and immediately spoke up playfully. In the company, Zeng Shaoyan and Li Mengyao had always been at odds. What's more, she and Meng Hai were an office couple! And that Meng Hai was the one who was forced to resign because Li Mengyao was promoted! Furthermore, because of Li Mengyao, Meng Hai had been blacklisted by the entire industry. How could Zeng Shaoyan not resent Li Mengyao?
"No, no," Li Mengyao forced a smile.
"Indeed, after all, our Team Leader Li is chauffeured by luxury cars! Goodness, a Lamborghini and a G-wagon. Team Leader Li, it seems you have many men who are on good terms with you!" Zeng Shaoyan giggled.
"Zeng Shaoyan, you're slandering me!" Li Mengyao gritted her teeth.
"Am I slandering you? Team Leader Li, I don't like you saying that. Let me ask you, on Tuesday noon, did you get out of a Lamborghini Urus? On Wednesday morning before work, were you in the parking lot, acting intimately with a man? Was the man driving a G-wagon? My eyes saw it all clearly, that man even held your hand!" Zeng Shaoyan said.
At these words, Li Mengyao felt like she was sitting on pins and needles. Although many colleagues said nothing, their mocking gazes made her skin crawl.
Li Mengyao blurted out, "That Lamborghini belongs to my husband!"
"Husband?" The crowd was stunned for a moment, then many burst into laughter. Zeng Shaoyan, in particular, laughed uncontrollably.
"Oh, Team Leader Li, you really know how to brag. That car is your husband's?"
"Don't call him husband when you're having fun and then really call him husband! Don't forget, your 'green-hatted turtle' is still at home."
"Forget it, forget it. Let's not provoke Team Leader Li. What if she says later that the wedding was arranged by her husband? Hahaha, if I say something so ridiculous, it's too funny!" Zeng Shaoyan gave Li Mengyao no face and launched into a torrent of mockery.
This made Li Mengyao's expression turn strange. A wedding with luxury cars? When her colleagues were watching the video earlier, she had also seen it. Wasn't that Li Menghao's wedding? How could Zeng Shaoyan be so accurate?
"You're actually right. The protagonists of the wedding you're watching are Li Menghao, my younger brother. Those cars were arranged by Ye Yun, and the venue, Tianxiang Pavilion, was also found by Ye Yun. Zeng Shaoyan, the Lamborghini you saw also belongs to Ye Yun." Li Mengyao said seriously.
"Did you hear that? Our Team Leader Li seems to have gone mad! She's just saying nonsensical things... Wait, she, what did she just say?" Zeng Shaoyan was still mocking, but the next moment, her voice faltered.
"She... she said the wedding we were watching was her brother's, and the cars were brought by Ye Yun, and that Lamborghini also belongs to Ye Yun..."
A colleague nearby stared blankly at Li Mengyao, repeating her words. At this moment, the entire Kexin Advertising Company fell silent. Everyone looked at Li Mengyao in disbelief. How did she know the wedding venue was Tianxiang Pavilion? Could it be... that wedding was indeed arranged by Ye Yun? Ye Yun? Many recalled the man who often came to pick up Li Mengyao. They had all heard of Ye Yun's reputation as a good-for-nothing. Could that grand wedding and the Lamborghini worth over three million truly belong to Ye Yun? Was it possible?
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I think you must have seen the news on some social media! If your family were truly that rich, why would you be here working instead of lounging at home as a wealthy wife?"
"That's right! Someone who can afford a Lamborghini worth over three million must have assets of at least tens of millions! If you, Li Mengyao, were really that rich, why would you drive a Levin here?"
"Haven't you overlooked a key point? Forget about the money for now. How many people in Jinling have the connections to summon so many luxury cars at once? If they had such influence, wouldn't they be making a fortune in any business? It's Saturday, why come to work overtime?"
With Zeng Shaoyan leading the charge, the company erupted.
"Stop just talking. I think you just found a rich man, and he happens to drive a Lamborghini!" Zeng Shaoyan put her hands on her hips, looking at Li Mengyao disdainfully, like a shrew.
"If what you say is true, then have Ye Yun drive the Lamborghini over here if you dare!" Zeng Shaoyan, believing she had some looks herself, had always tried to find rich men. But after searching, the most impressive man she found was Meng Hai, and he was pushed out of his position by Li Mengyao! Now, hearing that Li Mengyao had suddenly become so formidable, how could she stand it?
Under Zeng Shaoyan's provocation, Li Mengyao didn't even have the strength to retort. It was like those socialites, the more they lacked something, the more they would try to prove it. It had to be said, whether a woman stood tall depended on two men: one who slept with her mother, and one who slept with her. If even one of them was impressive, her back would be stiff.
