173: Meeting by Chance

Meeting by Chance

Yang Shoucheng had powerful connections in the mafia indeed. The rumors circulating on the internet were true after all.0

The more his words echoed, the more fearful she became.

Before she could tidy herself up after her flight from the room, she met Yang Mi, Han Yuyan, the two's entourage, and even Lu Jingtian, who had arrived late.

Tonight was Huanyu Entertainment's annual gala. Lu Jingtian's father was one of the company's largest shareholders, so naturally she had to be present.

However, when she reached the venue, she did not see the person that was on her mind. It was only expected that she would feel disappointed. She, thus, ended up following Yang Mi and the others to the lounge for a respite.

At the entrance to the elevator, however, their group bumped into Yun Na.

Caught off guard, Yun Na froze to the spot. She was intending to leave without being seen by anyone, but she unexpectedly bumped into them. She felt so awkward meeting them in her current state that she was overcome with shame.

She was presently in tatters, especially with those exposed areas being filled with traces of intimacy.

Her face, which was applied with exquisite makeup before, now looked haggard. She was in her most sorry plight in that instance, but it was exposed to others, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

Yang Mi disdainfully inspected her before snorting scornfully.

Li Jiuxian, who was standing by her side, could not help but furrow his brows.

Tang Yu spat, "B*tch, what a disgrace!"

Even Lu Jingtian had disgust written all over her face when she looked at her. She scoffed, "Where did this crazy b*tch come from?"

"Jingtian, this is something you don't know; this woman is a thief! She passed off somebody else's gown as hers and attempted to sneak into the venue to curry favor with those in power. She was just exposed by Xingze. She probably used some underhanded means and climbed up a certain big shot's bed to gain status!"

Yun Na pursed her lips in embarrassment and rage when she heard this. She put on a pitiful image. If those who were in the dark saw this, they would go soft-hearted for her.

However, everyone here knew of her true colors, so naturally, they did not fall for her act.

Even Li Jiuxian, who had taken care of her before, showed a disgusted expression, as if he had swallowed a fly.

Yun Na felt even more indignant when she observed this scene. She thoroughly hated that mouth of Yang Mi's; if she could, she would tear down that mouth full of gossips!

"It isn't what you think it is… All of you are being deceived by Yun Shishi! She isn't how she projects herself to be…"

She buried her face in her hands and cried miserably. She looked so pitiful she did not seem to be acting at all.

Yang Mi sneered, "If she isn't what we think she is, then what is she truly like?"

She wept, "This is all Yun Shishi's scheme! I didn't steal her gown; she gave it to me. She said that she dislikes it. I didn't expect for her to lie and say that I stole it. I… There's truly nothing I can do to clear my name!"

Yang Mi creased her brows at her words and she went silent for a moment, seemingly thinking of something.

Han Yuyan suddenly asked, "What you said; is it the truth?"

"Yes! I was originally coming to the gala with Director He—"

Jeers traveled through the group at the mention of He Lingxiang. Those in the entertainment industry were very aware of how the man was as a person. Anyone linked with him would have a big discount on their image.

She felt even more wronged at this. Tears flowed out from her eyes like a broken string of pearls. She sobbed pitifully, "Really, everyone; please don't just believe Yun Shishi's one-sided statement!"
