72 Innocent
Zhong Xinâs pupils constricted as he called out guiltily, âPresident Lian.â
When they heard Zhong Xinâs voice, everyone knew that the matter had blown up. They made way for President Lian while simultaneously stealing glances at the manâs ugly expression.
Lian Jingâs eyes narrowed and his gaze shifted away from the disheveled woman on the ground. He cast a frosty glance at the man behind her. âTake them back.â
Zhong Xin lowered his head and was about to call for someone to take the two of them away when Lianâe bit her lower lip and walked over awkwardly. âLittle Jing, donât be angry. I know you invited Miss Shen to the birthday banquet out of goodwill, but she dared to behave like that in public. It would be better to get her to explain in person.â
!!
âThatâs right, President Lian. This b*tch showed no respect for your status when she did such a shameful thing. I will expose her tomorrow and make sure she never dares to appear in public again!â The lady clutched the evidence in her hand with a proud tilt of her head. Fortunately, she had been smart enough to get a first-hand recording. If Lian Jing wanted to protect that woman, she would be able to do the Lian family a huge favor.
Lian Jing did not say anything, nor did he express his opinion. He even left the naked woman as she was.
Lianâe could not figure out what he was thinking. Unwilling to give up, she walked up to the woman on the ground and tried to help her up. However, she deliberately let her hand slip so that the unconscious woman fell, completely exposing her body to everyone.
This time, no matter how much Lian Jing wanted to protect her, he would probably feel extremely disgusted. He certainly would not marry this woman, whose body had been exposed in public.
âLittle âE, forget it. Why donât we let Little Jing take her away? If this situation continues, the Lian familyâs reputation will be affected.â Fu Xiao clasped his wifeâs arm and shot her a secret look.
They had already executed this plan perfectly. The only strange thing was Lian Jingâs reaction.
However, this was obviously no longer important. What should be seen had already been seen, and for an extended time too. They had achieved their goal. Now, the priority was to quickly get rid of Shen Yin. Otherwise, there might be an unforeseen turn of events.
Lianâe grasped his meaning. Just as she was about to retreat, someone grabbed her ankle tightly. The woman on the ground panted weakly. Her hair was drenched in sweat, and her face was pale. She looked like a female ghost that had crawled out of hell.
Lianâe wanted to shake her off, but could not. She pretended to be shocked and accidentally stepped viciously on her hand.
The woman on the ground immediately cried out in pain. She retracted her hand, that had been broken by the sharp heel, and glared at Lianâe. âYouâre the one who tricked me! Iâm going to kill you!â
Lianâe snorted and distanced herself in disgust. âYouâre finally awake, Shen Yin. I didnât know you were like that.â
The woman on the ground was stunned for a moment. She lowered her head and looked at the love marks all over her body. Then she looked at the stern-looking Lian Jing. She suddenly screamed and shook her head like a lunatic. âHow could this be? Itâs not supposed to be me. It shouldnât be me. How could it be me!â
That voiceâ¦
An uneasy look flashed across Lianâeâs face. She stared at the crazed woman in front of her, trying to see her face.
âItâs not me! President Lian! Listen to me! This is a conspiracy! Itâs a trap! Someone set me up!â The woman forced herself up, ignoring her aching back. Ignoring the dirt on the ground, she crawled to Lian Jingâs feet and tried to clutch at Lian Jingâs pants.
Lian Jing took a step back in disgust. The crowd perceived Lian Jingâs attitude and they began pointing at the woman on the ground.
The rich matron waved her cell phone and smiled. âMiss Shen, I didnât expect you to be so impatient. Iâve a recording as evidence. Has President Lian mistreated you? Why would you consort with such a despicable man behind his back?â
Lianâeâs good friend had heard Lianâe mocking Shen Yin when she first arrived at the banquet. Seeing that Lian Jing was not going to interfere, she said sarcastically, âThatâs right. I think sheâs just a slut. No matter how much the Lian family tries to improve her status, sheâs still not fit for society. To think that Grandpa Lian still thinks so highly of her and often invites her to the Lian residence. You canât make a silk purse out of a sowâs ear.â
âNo, Iâm not. Iâm not Shenâ¦â The woman could not stand the crowdâs scolding and she completely lost her mind. She squatted on the ground and covered her ears as she screamed ear-piercingly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Just as everyone could not take it anymore and wanted to gag her, they heard a shy, female voice coming from behind them.
âWhy is everyone gathered here? I need to use the toilet urgently. If you donât need the toilet, can you let me in first?â
