Chapter 3415 - 3415 You’re Such a Fool

3415 You’re Such a Fool

“Okay, but we agreed to have a seafood feast tonight. Do you mind?” Leng Xiaoyao didn’t refuse. She wouldn’t reject contact with people she didn’t dislike.

“Not at all, I love seafood too! I even stayed at the seaside for half a month just to eat seafood before.” Ning Muqing replied.

Although it was only 5 pm, they didn’t know where else to go, so they headed straight to the restaurant nearby.

It was only a ten-minute walk away.

“Oh, be careful of Wang Pengyu. I have a feeling that he might do something else to harm you.” Leng Xiaoyao kindly reminded Ning Muqing.

Ning Muqing’s face froze and she got slightly nervous. “Sure, I’ll be careful.”

Although Ning Muqing was three or four years older than everyone else, they had no generation gap when they chatted.

Ning Muqing was originally in a bad mood, but chatting with everyone made her temporarily forget about Wang Pengyu.

Through their conversation, they found out that Ning Muqing had also graduated from the Capital University a year ago and was working in her family’s company from the ground up without any special privileges.

No one in the company knew her background except for her friend Xiao You.

Wang Pengyu was the business manager of their company’s partner company. They met because of business and he didn’t know her identity until recently.

“Heh! I actually think that Wang Pengyu knew your background a long time ago and approached you, making you think that he, a business manager, was interested in a workplace rookie like you. That would make you think that he’s not a superficial person and is worth trusting for life,” Mu Beihan said sarcastically. Wang Pengyu gave her that impression.

“No, that can’t be true!” Ning Muqing found it hard to believe, but Mu Beihan’s words made sense.

“This kind of situation actually happens a lot,” An Chenmeng said. Although she hadn’t personally experienced it in real life, she had seen many similar scenes on TV. TV was adapted from reality, so it must have happened many times in reality too.

“You said your friend’s name is Xiao You?” Leng Xiaoyao caught the key point.

“Yes.” Ning Muqing replied.

“Can you tell us when you met Xiao You and what your relationship is like?” Leng Xiaoyao asked.

“Xiao You and I were classmates in college and we’ve always been close. After graduation, she followed me to intern at my family’s company. Although her work isn’t outstanding, she’s diligent, so I let her stay because of our relationship,” Ning Muqing said. She didn’t have any doubts about Leng Xiaoyao’s questions.

“Heh!” Leng Xiaoyao couldn’t help but sneer, then disdainfully rebuked Ning Muqing. “Ning Muqing, I really don’t know what to say about your taste. The woman who just called Wang Pengyu on the phone is called Xiao You. I think these two people are probably the same person!”

“N-No way!” Ning Muqing was shocked again and couldn’t accept this fact, but if it was really Xiao You who called, she thought it was highly likely that they were the same person.

“Think carefully about whether there’s anything strange about your friend, Xiao You,” Leng Xiaoyao said. Although she thought it was possible that they were the same person, there was no evidence, so it might not be true.

After all, there were many people with the same name.

Ning Muqing listened to Leng Xiaoyao and carefully thought about whether there was anything strange about Xiao You.

Upon reflection, there were actually many things that felt off!

“Xiao You and Wang Pengyu get along well. I thought it was because Xiao You was my friend, so Wang Pengyu was also enthusiastic towards her. At least that’s what Wang Pengyu said.”

“Once when Xiao You had a fever, she sent a WeChat message to Wang Pengyu instead of me. At the time, I thought she might have sent it to the wrong person and didn’t think much of it because Xiao You’s health was more important.”

“Once, Wang Pengyu bought me a gift and also bought one for Xiao You. He said it was because she was my friend and we went shopping together, so it’s not right not to give her anything. I didn’t think much of it at the time.

“On Valentine’s Day, Xiao You and I both received gifts. Although the styles were different, the brand was the same. Xiao You said it was from a man who was pursuing her, but she didn’t tell me who he was. Our relationship was good, and she would tell me about any guy who was interested in her.”

“Another time, we all went out for fun, and Xiaoyou said she got car sick, so she sat in the front seat. They talked and laughed all the way. I was basically ignored, but I was too sleepy to care.”

“…”

Ning Muqing suddenly realized that something wasn’t right about all the above things.

“You’re such a fool,” said Leng Xiaoyao, shaking her head resignedly. She didn’t know what to say to Ning Muqing anymore. “You didn’t even notice so many things were wrong. If it weren’t for me today, you might not have realized until something really bad happened to you!”

Ning Muqing also felt that she was stupid. If it hadn’t for Leng Xiaoyao, she might not have known how she would have ended up!

At this point, Ning Muqing finally believed that Xiao You wasn’t right. She was so angry that she almost slapped herself.

Ning Muqing couldn’t wait and immediately called her brother.

“Brother, you must fire Lin Xiaoyou right away and cancel the cooperation with Wang Pengyu, unless their company replaces him,” Ning Muqing said urgently.

On the other end of the phone, Ning Muqing’s brother, Ning Guanjie, was very confused. “Why? Did Wang Pengyu do something bad to you?”

Ning Guanjie knew that Ning Muqing and Wang Pengyu were in a romantic relationship. He didn’t approve of it at first, but he couldn’t do anything about it.

If it were him, he wouldn’t want to be interfered with if he had a girlfriend his family didn’t like.

“Wang Pengyu and Lin Xiaoyou plotted against me. Fortunately, it was exposed by a friend of mine today. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know how I would have ended up. Wang Pengyu is a scumbag. He only pursued me because he knew my family background. I thought he wasn’t a materialistic person. And Lin Xiaoyou, I treated her so well, but she did this to me…” Ning Muqing cried as she said that, venting her grievances at this moment. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Damn Wang Pengyu and Lin Xiaoyou. Don’t worry, I won’t let them go. Where are you now? Shall I come to pick you up?” Ning Guanjie was worried that Ning Muqing would do something stupid because of her sadness. Even if she didn’t do anything stupid, he was still afraid that she would be in danger.

“I’m having dinner with friends. Can you come to XXX Seafood Restaurant in half an hour to pick me up?” Ning Muqing thought about it and decided it would be better for her brother to pick her up.

Mu Beihan and the others had been comforting Ning Muqing all along until she stopped crying, then they continued eating.

As they ate, Ning Muqing’s mood gradually improved. Everyone could see that Ning Muqing was a real foodie.

Anyway, in such a situation, being able to eat was a good thing. If she couldn’t eat anything, that would be bad.
