Lu Muxue shook her head helplessly. “Let’s not talk about it. After all, this is just my guess. If I say too much, it’ll be inevitable that others will misunderstand. I only analyzed it and don’t mean anything else. I still have something to do, so I’ll leave first.”
After she finished speaking, she held her books and left. The few students stood on the spot and were stunned for a few seconds. “Could it be that Qiao Xi really did something?”
“Muxue has a point. I think there might be a reason why Madam Zhou is so angry.”
On the other hand, Madam Zhou had just walked into the office building. Before she reached the chancellor’s office, her phone suddenly rang. She picked it up impatiently and heard a cold voice. “Madam Zhou.”
Madam Zhou said angrily, “Who are you?”
“Song Shijing.” The man’s voice came from the other end of the phone. His tone was calm with a trace of a smile, but it was inexplicably terrifying.
“Madam Zhou, I’m sorry to inform you that our president already knows about the trouble you’ve caused Miss Qiao Xi. Hence, the president wants you to apologize to Miss Qiao today and try your best to eliminate the rumors. Otherwise, you’ll have to bear the consequences.”
Mrs. Zhou frowned and was about to speak when the call was hung up. She stood rooted to the ground for a few seconds. She had heard of Song Shijing before. When he said his name, her heart skipped a beat, but…
Was he really Song Shijing, who was by Gu Zheng’s side? What was his relationship with Qiao Xi? Why was he standing up for Qiao Xi?
There must be a mistake! Gu Zheng would not have the time to care about such things. It seemed that the Song Shijing who called her was just someone Qiao Xi found to be an impostor. The man’s goal was to scare her into retreating.
Qiao Xi was really bold. She actually found someone to pretend to be Song Shijing. Was she afraid of being fired?
It seemed that this woman absolutely could not stay by her son’s side. First, she ruined her son’s marriage. With her scheming mind, she might even marry him and snatch the Zhou family’s assets.
Lin’an was easily influenced. If the two of them really got together, he would definitely be led by the nose by this woman.
After hanging up, Song Shijing seemed to have expected this and said helplessly, “It seems that Madam Zhou won’t do as I say. In that case, let’s spread the news!”
He instructed the people behind him, “The president has never deigned to use this method to deal with women. Now that he has made an exception for Mrs. Gu, we need to do a better job. We’ll also let Mrs. Zhou have a taste of public opinion.”
At this moment, Madam Zhou put her phone back into her bag and was even angrier.
Lu Muxue had been waiting at the side for a long time. She calmly walked out from a corner and was slightly stunned when she saw Madam Zhou. It was as if they had coincidentally met. She hurriedly walked forward and asked worriedly, “What are you doing here today?”
“My son is studying here, so why can’t I come?” Madam Zhou’s anger had been accumulating in her heart. Even when facing Lu Muxue, she could not help but have a bad attitude.
Lu Muxue was not angry and said gently, “I was just asking out of curiosity. Madam Zhou, please don’t take offense. Yesterday, you went to the chancellor’s office. I heard that even if Teacher Qiao and Young Master Zhou are in a relationship, the university won’t expel her. In that case, why are you here today…”
Madam Zhou was instantly infuriated. “No! They’re not in a relationship! The eldest daughter of Hongfeng Corporation broke off the engagement because…”
She suddenly stopped talking. How could she tell an outsider that her son had been rejected? Where would the Zhou family put their dignity?
When Lu Muxue heard this, she hurriedly asked, “Could it be that the eldest daughter of Hongfeng Corporation found out that Young Master Zhou and Qiao Xi are in a relationship, so she suggested breaking off the engagement? It wasn’t Young Master Zhou who rejected the marriage first?”
What kind of disgraceful thing was this? Hearing Lu Muxue’s question, Madam Zhou’s expression was extremely ugly.
Lu Muxue pretended not to see it and reminded her in a gentle tone, “Madam Zhou, you have to think carefully! If Young Master Zhou wants to break off the engagement for Qiao Xi, that’s his own problem. However, if Qiao Xi seduced Young Master Zhou and caused his fiancee to break off the engagement in a fit of anger, then Qiao Xi will be the mistress who seduced a man.”
Madam Zhou suddenly looked up and came to a realization.
That’s right! Qiao Xi was a mistress. She clearly knew that Lin’an was already engaged, yet she still seduced him, causing the eldest miss of Hongfeng Corporation to cancel the engagement!
Lu Muxue continued to guide her. “Young Master Zhou is good-looking, has a good family background, and is capable. If he can marry the eldest daughter of Hongfeng Corporation, his future will definitely be limitless. He must also understand this logic. It’s possible for him to fool around with other women, but there’s no need to give up Hongfeng Corporation for a woman!”
