C164 Deliberation
Soong Shiyan was talking to Zheng Jinghao with a smile while Lin Lang walked through the crowd to her side, pulling her to the side and whispering in her ear, "Yan Duoya intends to cooperate with Huo Mingyang. I heard Yan Duoya say that she could advise Huo Mingyang and take your heart. As for Huo Mingyang, he'll need to help her deal with Yinn Haoming. "
It turned out that when Soong Shiyan noticed Yan Duoya secretly eavesdropping on his conversation with Huo Mingyang, she went back to the main hall to find Lin Lang and ask her to pay attention to Yan Duoya's movements.
"To deal with Yinn Haoming? Why would Yan Duoya suddenly have such a thought? " Soong Shiyan looked at Lin Lang with a puzzled expression as she asked in a low voice.
"I'm not sure either. However, what Yan Duoya told Huo Mingyang was that Yinn Haoming likes you and is plotting to divorce her. Now that she had given up on Yinn Haoming, she was furious and decided to do that. "Lin Lang frowned as she replied," However, I guess the reason she did that was because she wanted to monopolize your property.
Soong Shiyan nodded without batting an eyelid. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Yan Duoya slowly walking towards them. She hurriedly gave Lin Lang a meaningful glance, indicating that she should leave as soon as possible in order to avoid Yan Duoya's suspicion.
Seeing that, Lin Lang was ready to leave, but she was stopped by Zheng Jinghao.
"Cousin, I don't think I offended you tonight, right? Why are you suddenly so cold to me? " Zheng Jinghao said angrily.
Tonight was his birthday party, but for some reason, it was as if Lin Lang had become a completely different person. She suddenly turned cold towards him and even avoided him. This made Zheng Jinghao a bit depressed.
Lin Lang rolled her eyes and ignored Zheng Jinghao.
Seeing that, Zheng Jinghao continued: "Aren't you very familiar with Jing Sung? "Why are you pretending not to know him and not even greet him?"
Lin Lang looked up and saw Yan Duoya walking towards the hall from the side door. Without bothering to explain, she waved Zheng Jinghao away and walked towards the side.
"Little girl with the surname Lin, I'm angry —" Zheng Jinghao shouted in dissatisfaction as he saw Lin Lang ignore him.
Zheng Jinghao's voice was not soft. Seeing that, Soong Shiyan was afraid of arousing Yan Duoya's suspicion, so she interrupted him: "Brother Zheng, stop shouting. The guests around are all looking at you."
Hearing this, Zheng Jinghao smiled awkwardly, but he was still a bit depressed as he said, "Such a woman's heart." Lin Lang was fine in the beginning, but she was talking and laughing with me! Why are you suddenly ignoring me? "Sigh!"
"Brother Zheng, you know it as well. Miss Soong misunderstood Mr. Yinn and me when we were at the bar before, so we had a falling out. Lin Lang had known Miss Soong for more than ten years, so their relationship was not ordinary. If Miss Soong knew that Lin Lang was carrying her behind her back, she would have become my friend. Therefore, the friendship between the two of them would probably be affected as well — Big Brother Zheng, are you going to bear with watching Lin Lang lose her best friend? "
Zheng Jinghao felt that Soong Shiyan's words were not unreasonable, so he gave up. Knowing that it wasn't because he had angered Lin Lang, his expression relaxed a bit.
"So, in front of Miss Soong, Brother Zheng, you must never reveal even the slightest bit of what happened between Lin Lang and me, okay?" Soong Shiyan said worriedly.
Hearing that, Zheng Jinghao nodded his head, but he was still puzzled and said, "Jing Sung, don't worry. I will pay attention to that — but, in my impression, Soong Shiyan wasn't as stingy as you said!"
Hearing this, a cold smile appeared on Soong Shiyan's face. Yes, she was indeed not such a petty and petty person!
But now, since Yan Duoya had replaced her, she had appeared in front of the public. Then, Yan Duoya's speech and behavior naturally became that of "Soong Shiyan". No matter how humiliating or unbearable Yan Duoya was, it was still her face that was being shamed, her reputation!
"Brother Zheng, you're still the one who said it. That is the past, and that does not represent the present, much less the future — everything in the world is constantly changing, and humans are also the same. Miss Soong mistakenly thought that there was something between Mr. Yinn and me. Since she had some enmity towards me, it is natural for her to be a little petty. " Soong Shiyan restrained the unhappiness in her heart. A faint smile appeared on her face as she vaguely said this.
Zheng Jinghao nodded his head in agreement with Soong Shiyan's words.
… ….
Yan Duoya returned to the hall at a leisurely pace. She walked through the crowd to Yinn Haoming's side.
Now, Yinn Haoming had broken off all decorum with Yan Duoya and didn't even bother to put on an act. Naturally, he didn't ask her why she spent so much time going to the washroom.
Yan Duoya pretended to be weak as she said to Yinn Haoming, "I'm not feeling well, so I won't wait for you."
Hearing that, Yinn Haoming said half-heartedly, "Oh."
When Soong Shiyan saw Yinn Haoming being so cold, she clenched her hands angrily, but remained calm on the surface.
"In that case, I'll have the driver take me back first. "Then, before the banquet ends, you must remember to call the driver and have him come and pick you up." Yan Duoya said dispiritedly. After that, she lifted up her skirt and walked outside.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Huo Mingyang, who was standing to one side. Since Huo Mingyang still doubted her words, she would let him have a good look to see if there was that little bit of ambiguity between Yinn Haoming and Soong Shiyan.
When Soong Shiyan saw Yan Duoya leaving Yinn Haoming, she took the lead and left the banquet. She couldn't help but think about what Lin Lang had just said to her.1
Yan Duoya tried to persuade Huo Mingyang to join hands with her because Yinn Haoming was in love with her and wanted to divorce her. At the thought of this, Soong Shiyan smiled coldly. Back then, Yinn Haoming and Yan Duoya had killed him together. Now, the two of them were naturally on the same boat and would not easily break up.
After her previous life, Soong Shiyan knew Yinn Haoming too well. Even if Yinn Haoming had lost his former enthusiasm towards Yan Duoya and became completely distant from her, he would never say the matter of the divorce. After all, Soong Family's wealth was indeed something that others would drool over. Therefore, Yan Duoya only told lies like 'divorce' because she wanted Huo Mingyang to make up his mind to join hands with her.
Soong Shiyan couldn't help but think that Yan Duoya must have thought Huo Mingyang liked her when she was secretly eavesdropping on his conversation with Huo Mingyang.
In order to get Huo Mingyang to agree to work with her and deal with Yinn Haoming's so-called "love rival", Yan Duoya would definitely think of a way to confirm her words to Huo Mingyang. Perhaps, her leaving early was just a small step in her plan – right now, all she was waiting for was for Yinn Haoming to walk into her trap.
Since Yan Duoya and Yinn Haoming had already started their internal strife and Yan Duoya had started to deal with Yinn Haoming, how could she just stand by and watch without doing anything? Soong Shiyan smiled in satisfaction as she predicted what would happen next.
