Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lin Wanli wanted to take a few more glances, but she knew that Huo Jiuxiao was busy, so she quietly hung up the video call. Her relationship with Huo Jiuxiao had always been one-sided. She had never hoped that Huo Jiuxiao would put her first.

Moreover, although she loved him, she had been hurt in two lifetimes and had long understood the meaning of love, hate, and separation. Therefore, her love for Huo Jiuxiao had nothing to do with him.

She had already promised him that she would give him the greatest tolerance, and she would do what she said.

Huo Jiuxiao, on the other hand, lowered his head after hearing Song Huaishu’s words. When he saw the screen of the phone that had already hung up, a corner of his heart was tugged fiercely.

Someone who would be moved to tears by him moving her slippers seemed very sensible at this moment. However, at this moment, Lin Wanli’s lonely expression was swirling in his mind. For the first time, he had the thought of making someone happy, but he didn’t know how to do it.

“Master Xiao.” Song Huaishu patted the back of Huo Jiuxiao’s hand. When he looked up again, he continued, “President Lu escaped to Nepal territory.”

“Send someone to keep an eye on his movements. The matter here will be over the day after tomorrow,” instructed Huo Jiuxiao. Then, he turned around and walked toward the villa.

As he walked, he changed Lin Wanli’s remarks: My Little Spoiled Wife.

On the other side, at the Lin Group’s building.

In order to prevent Lin Wanli from having a chance to go back on her words and to prevent her from playing any other tricks, Ye Weiyin suggested that Old Lady Lin arrange for reporters to be present tomorrow to supervise the decision-making meeting.

She had already confirmed that Old Lady Yue had already left Jinchuan. Therefore, Lin Wanli would definitely lose the bet tomorrow.

Old Lady Lin agreed to Ye Weiyin’s suggestion, so she called the Chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce and asked for a condition of the bet.

“The second decision-making meeting is going to be held tomorrow. Old Madam, aren’t you forcing me by making a request now? Besides, this is an internal matter of our Chamber of Commerce. Why do we have to make it known to everyone?” The Chairman was a little frustrated, not only because of Old Madam Lin’s fickleness but also because of the evil thoughts of the Ye family’s mother and daughter toward the Chamber of Commerce.

“We agreed that the contract between Lin Wanli and Yue Group would be the basis. If Lin Wanli can’t produce the contract, then she will have to pay double the price according to the agreement. I’m just afraid that she will go back on her word, so I’m just on guard.” Old Lady Lin explained calmly, ‘Why? Chairman, do you think she will lose?”

The Chairman rolled his eyes. Actually, his patience had run out, but he still practiced his self-restraint and held back his anger. He replied, “Since the Lin Group has requested this, Lin Wanli has the right to refute it, so I have to ask for her opinion.”

“How could she have any objections to such a fair and open matter?”

“Old Madam, please wait.” After saying that, the Chairman hung up the phone and invited Secretary Tao into his office.

After hearing this, Secretary Tao smiled and shook his head because he realized that Old Madam Lin seemed to be fearless and unconcerned about being ridiculed. Lin Wanli had already told him that this trap was set up for the Ye family’s mother and daughter. She would also suggest that the media supervise it. In the end, only the mother and daughter of the Ye family would be harmed. Was she really not a spy?

“Chairman, just inform Lin Wanli about this matter and agree to Old Madam Lin’s request.”

“Sure. Just don’t mess up tomorrow’s show,” said the Chairman. Then, he called Old Madam Lin back and told her about his stance on the matter.

“Lin Wanli doesn’t have the right to choose now. She can only accept it.”

After the Chairman heard this, he was extremely speechless toward the people from the Lin Group.

Wasn’t this arrogance a little too much?

Secretary Tao stood beside the Chairman and was also shocked by Old Madam Lin’s confidence.

“I finally understand why Lin Wanli wanted to deceive the Ye family’s mother and daughter by hinting at their own incompetence. It turned out that Lin Wanli wanted to make them confident and blind them. When a person has very high self-esteem and thinks that they are invincible, they would underestimate their enemy and there would be full of loopholes.”

“Then, in return, that person would be taught a lesson and beaten up again and again.”

“Could it be that Qin Huaijing’s fate is not a revelation for them?”

“Lin Wanli is simply casting a spell on people.”

The Chairman thought about Secretary Tao’s words and relaxed. So be it. The last decision-making meeting was already packed to the door. There was no difference in inviting the media this time.

After that, Secretary Tao told Lin Wanli about the Lin Group’s request for media supervision.

Just as Secretary Tao expected, Lin Wanli laughed after hearing it.

“It seems that I have to stay back and thank my grandmother after tomorrow.

She promoted Ye Zhenzhen so that I could attack her. Now, she is afraid that others will not know that the Lin Group is useless, so she wants to install speakers everywhere.”

“Ye Zhenzhen got promoted?” Secretary Tao still remembered how angry Lin Wanli was at Director Ye Zhenzhen during the last meeting.

“She was promoted to vice president,” answered Lin Wanli.

“Tsk, tsk. Ye Zhenzhen is about to lose something that she has just gotten. She’s probably going to go crazy in the conference room again. It seems that the show will be more exciting tomorrow, but I like that.” Lin Wanli thought to herself that she wanted Lin Xueyi to see it too.

‘Why don’t I just bring my mother there?’

This kind of devastating battle was her favorite.

In fact, they did not know that Ye Weiyin was the one who suggested the media monitor the situation. Her real purpose was to chase Lin Wanli away. Who knew that she would dig a hole for herself and Ye Zhenzhen instead?

In the evening, Lin Wanli told Lin Xueyi about the supervision of the media. After Lin Xueyi heard it, a mocking smile appeared on her face, and the corners of her eyes became moist.

“Ultimately, she doesn’t care about her family anymore.”

“Mom, don’t ask for things that don’t exist.” Lin Wanli held Lin Xueyi’s hand and said, “So, you can come with me to the Chinese Chamber of Commerce tomorrow.”

“Alright.” Lin Xueyi had only seen Lin Wanli’s transformation at Old Madam Lin’s birthday banquet, but she didn’t know what she looked like when she went crazy. Therefore, as a mother, she instinctively hoped that her presence could help Lin Wanli.

However, Lin Wanli’s goal was very simple. She just wanted to make Lin Xueyi happy.

After Old Madam Lin received the Chairman’s reply, she felt that everything would go as she expected. Lin Wanli had no room to refuse. Everyone would be watching tomorrow. Even if Lin Wanli wanted to deny it, she would not give her any chance.

However, Ye Weiyin had an even more vicious trick up her sleeve. She had already started to exaggerate the bet between Lin Wanli and the Lin Group. Even though Lin Wanli’s contact with the Yue Group had already been discussed by the business world, it was far less attractive than knowing the contents of the bet.

How could it be so easy for a good-for-nothing young missus to get rid of her uselessness?

Therefore, Ye Weiyin hoped that everyone would not miss the chance to see Lin Wanli suffer a crushing defeat tomorrow and disappear from Jinchuan like a stray dog….
