Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Jun pondered for a moment and then said, “What else can I help you with? Fabricate more dirt on Jiang Ling’er?”

Bai Xue sighed and said, “Do you know why I drank so much alcohol?”

Jiang Jun sarcastically replied, “What else could it be? You were having a grand birthday celebration.”

Bai Xue’s face darkened, and she said with a hint of grievance, “No, it’s not that. 1 was really upset because Li Yan, at the very beginning, gave the first slice of cake to that wretched Jiang Ling’er. I was so angry, but I couldn’t make a scene right there, so I drowned my sorrows in alcohol.”

Jiang Jun didn’t entirely believe her and said, “Is that so?”

Yesterday, Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan had dressed very modestly, so how could they steal Bai Xue’s spotlight? But then he remembered Bai Xue’s previous manipulative tactics against Jiang Ling’er, and he let out a mocking smile.

Bai Xue continued, “It’s true. I was completely shocked at the time. 1 couldn’t believe that Li Yan would do that to me.”

Thinking about these things, Bai Xue felt even more wronged, and her voice choked up.

Jiang Jun chuckled indifferently. In the past, hearing Bai Xue in such distress would have pained him, but since he was cast out of the Jiang family, he had come to see through Bai Xue’s true nature.

Jiang Jun said, “Heh… I’m not the young master of the Jiang family anymore. Even if I wanted to help, 1 can’t do anything now.”

Jiang Jun knew exactly what Bai Xue had in mind. While he also resented Jiang Ling’er, his own life was more important.

Bai Xue pleaded, “Brother Jun, just leak the information. 1’11 take care of the rest.”

Jiang Jun chuckled and said, “Heh… There’s nothing left for me to do. You know very well how I obtained that information in the first place. Now, with my current situation, there’s nothing 1 can do.”

Bai Xue was so furious with Jiang Jun that she wanted to kill him right then and there. This guy was unbelievably dense.

Bai Xue spoke softly, saying, “Didn’t I provide you with some dirt? Now go and expose it.”

Jiang Jun pretended not to understand and said, “I’m too foolish. I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Bai Xue calmed herself and said, “Jiang Ling’er’s engagement with Li Yan has already been called off, but she still acted so intimately with Li Yan at my birthday party. What do you think Jiang Ling’er is trying to do?”

Jiang Jun seemed to have a sudden realization and said, “So, you want me to expose Jiang Ling’er for seducing Li Yan and then label her as a homewrecker, right?”

Bai Xue breathed a sigh of relief. The dim-witted Jiang Jun had finally caught on.

Helplessly, Bai Xue said, “It’s not that I want to label her as a homewrecker, but she did act like one. I just feel so wronged.”

Jiang Jun sarcastically remarked, “Heh… Didn’t you invite her yourself? If you invited her, why are you restricting her actions?”

Bai Xue used a somewhat coquettish tone and said, “But when I saw Li Yan giving her the cake, I immediately regretted it, but there’s no way to turn back time. Brother Jun, will you help me, please?”

Jiang Jun said indifferently, “I don’t want to provoke her right now. You should talk to Li Yan about this, or you can spend some money and find someone else to help.”

Bai Xue wanted to mention that Li Yan was too busy lately, but then she thought better of it. She couldn’t reveal Li Yan’s whereabouts because Jiang Jun might continuously harass her.

“Brother Jun, if Li Yan was willing to help me, 1 wouldn’t be so upset. Just help me this once!”

Jiang Jun said, “I’ve already failed once against that wretched Jiang Ling’er. In my current state, 1 don’t dare to have another confrontation with her.”

Jiang Jun spoke the truth. Slandering someone is illegal, and serious consequences might land him in jail. In the past, he was rich and could use money to resolve such matters, but now he had no money to spare.

Bai Xue replied, “Don’t rush to refuse. You mentioned you’re out of money lately, right? If you help me label Jiang Ling’er as a homewrecker, I’ll give you 50,000. What do you think?”

Bai Xue was using money to speak, knowing Jiang Jun’s profligate habits, which he couldn’t change even though he was no longer the young master of the Jiang family.

Jiang Jun heard the offer of 50,000 and was tempted. He said, “50,000? To be honest, it’s quite tempting. Let me think about it. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.”

Bai Xue wasn’t entirely satisfied with his response but couldn’t force Jiang Jun. She said, “Okay, Brother Jun, please get back to me as soon as possible.”

Jiang Jun hesitated for a moment and said, “I’ll give you an answer before tonight.”

They hung up the call, and Bai Xue wore a smug smile.

Now she could just sit back and watch the fireworks between that wretched Jiang Ling’er and the beastly Jiang Jun.

In the cafeteria.

Chen Yizhou frowned as he looked at his tray with one meat dish and two vegetarian dishes. He then glanced around. Chen Yizhou was used to having his meals in a quiet place and wasn’t accustomed to the noise of the cafeteria.

He looked across the table at Chen Yinuo and asked, “Yinuo, is the money I give you every month enough?”
