Chapter 1186 - DNA Test (4)

Upon Eric’s scolding, Xu Cheng felt even more wronged than before.

“How can you say that to me as well! Your boss has been scolding me all this time. I am already so upset, and here you are, scolding me as well!” Xu Cheng raised her voice, as she was agitated.

Eric covered Xu Cheng’s mouth. He was afraid that Lina might overhear them from the bedroom. “Lower your voice. Aren’t you afraid that Lina might hear?”

Xu Cheng had dissatisfaction written all over her face.

Eric put down his hand, but his face remained serious. “I was working with Lina last night. She only went to bed around four in the morning. Why did you come at this hour? Weren’t you supposed to meet at 10 AM?”

“How should I know you both went to bed so late? I just wanted to come earlier so we could get the test done earlier.”

Eric was repulsed by Xu Cheng so much that he wanted to hit her. She acted as if she was wrongfully accused, like she did nothing bad, and they should not have scolded her.

Putting his impulse to hurt Xu Cheng aside, Eric said, “I am telling you that what you did today crossed a line—Lina’s line. Lina hates those who have no respect for punctuality, no planning, and pay no attention to agreements. What you did today was an absolute no for Lina. What you did showed that you disregarded your agreement with Lina, and you did not put yourself in Lina’s shoes. You acted on your own. You did what you wanted to do. Lina hates that the most.”

Eric almost said the same thing as Lina. Xu Cheng was jealous. “You said the same thing as Lina. You guys are so in sync!”

Hearing Xu Cheng’s words, Eric clenched his teeth to clam his anger. He believed that Ling Tianya would never do such a thing in this situation.

It seemed he overrated Xu Cheng. She was beyond help and was unteachable. How could Lina like her if she acted this way?

Seeing that Eric’s face did not soften, Xu Cheng decided to apologize even though she still felt she had done nothing wrong. “I know I was wrong. Don’t be mad. I’ll apologize to Lina when she comes out.”

Eric signed deeply at last. It was no time to be mad. All this could be put aside until the full test was finished. Eric softened up and said, “No need to apologize. Just don’t do it again. You might like what I said, but you need to listen. Think twice when you do anything from now on. What would Ling Tianya do if this happened to her? You just need to follow that.”

Xu Cheng did not like what Eric had said. It was almost as if he was implying she was not as good as Ling Tianya.

“How would I know what Liang Tianya would do? I don’t even know her. We just spent a few days together.”

Eric knew that it did not matter what he said to Xu Cheng right now. Xu Cheng would never listen or understand, as she was not that bright and was extremely stubborn. She would feel like she was being wronged instead.

Therefore, Eric switched the topic. “Have you got Ling Tianya’s hair?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Yes.” Xu Cheng was not happy. She took Ling Tianya’s hair out of her bag.

Xu Cheng showed no mercy when she had pulled out Ling Tianya’s hair. She got more than a few hairs in her hand.

Eric nodded and was about to say something when he saw the hair. At this time, Lina stepped out of her room, all ready to go.

Eric’s face changed immediately when he saw Lina. He stood to the side politely, like an assistant should.
