ness.Yu Xu gave Rong Ling a sly wink and said, “Even if Second Brother is skilled, he’s still no match for Big Brother, hehe. I’d better seize the opportunity to learn a few tricks from Big Brother!”R...Lin Meng probably also felt that those past beauties and slight indulgences were likely gone forever. Rong Ling's expression and behavior could tell her what she needed to understand. So, after lying on the cold floor for about half an hour, she got up, went to the bathroom, and carefully cleaned herself up.

Her index finger, along with the other fingers except for her thumb and pinky, were completely devoid of nail beds. The blood had already clotted at the tips, sending a searing pain whenever she touched water. However, she merely pursed her lips and made various cleaning motions with her hands. After all, in this situation, there was no one else in the world who could help her but herself. Showing weakness or crying out in pain wouldn't even be worthwhile without an audience!

After cleaning up, she picked up the newspaper that had been dropped on the floor and leaned back on the sofa, carefully reading it from beginning to end. The gist of the article was that Rong Ling had just driven out of the golf course when he almost hit a girl named Qing Yun. The girl lived up to her name, giving off an aura of mystery and purity. She seemed incredibly clean, as if she had emerged from some spiritual mountain village. The girl was young, intelligent, and a freshman at a prestigious university in City J.

Such a girl is probably incomparable. Although the girl resembles her in some ways, Lin Meng knows that this girl is much cleaner than her, and she's also the daughter of a shareholder of the famous Shangshi Department Store, whose family background is far better than hers.

After almost hitting the girl, Rong Ling hurriedly sent her to the hospital. Since then, he has been busy around her, hardly leaving her side. Reporters speculate: a talented man and a beautiful woman, these two people probably have a crush on each other!

As for the truthfulness of this report, Lin Meng didn't know. And those reporters' speculations shouldn't be taken too seriously. However, Lin Meng vaguely guessed that the girl might be Rong Ling's liking. Because the girl had a similar temperament to her, but a purer background. Moreover, the girl was sunny, at least compared to her, she had always lived a life of gentle breeze and drizzle, she probably wouldn't cause Rong Ling as much trouble as she did!

In short, once compared, she falls flat!

Lin Meng shook her head, gave a self-deprecating smile, crumpled the tabloid in her hand into a ball, and threw it into the trash can. Then, with forced composure, she went to the kitchen, made herself a bowl of noodles, and ate it all up. After a brief rest, she began tidying Rong Ling's bedroom. Despite the fact that her body should have been tired, the excessive intimacy had become a heavy burden and torment for her young physique most of the time. However, there seemed to be an inexhaustible amount of energy within her, driving her to fulfill the thought in her heart. She carefully separated her clothes from those belonging to men, folded them neatly, and moved them into her own bedroom.

She thought, drawing the line wasn't just for her own good, but also because she had a sense of self-awareness!

Busy as she was, determined to thoroughly clean the bedroom. Then, the doorbell rang, causing her to freeze, her heart skipping a beat. In that instant, she felt lost, wondering how she should face this man. If he saw her like this, cleaning up, what would he think!

a little panicked!

Then, she finally realized how foolish she still was!

How could I unconsciously think that the one ringing the doorbell was Rong Ling! Rong Ling has the key, if he wanted to come in, he could just use it! So at first, I immediately attributed everything to that man, I feel so useless!

She smiled wryly and went to open the door. Peeking through the doorway, she saw Miao Qing, and she froze. In that instant, she couldn't help but shiver, her fingertips completely numb. Old memories flooded her mind, recalling the last time she was leaving, it was this same capable and beautiful woman who had sent her off.

Really That fast

For a moment, my heart was a maelstrom of emotions, but bitterness overwhelmed all else. However, I forced a smile and opened the door.

"It's you! Come in quickly!"

"No way!" Miao Qing smiled faintly, reaching into her pocket and pulling out a packet of pills. "Birth control pills, Rong Shao instructed me to give these to you. Don't forget to take them!"

"Oh..." she smiled sheepishly and reached out to take it. "Sorry for the trouble!"

It was just Lin Meng's outstretched hand, which Miao Qing gently grasped. Miao Qing squinted, looked at the tip of Lin Meng's finger, furrowed her brow, and whispered, "It should be bandaged!"

Lin Meng was stunned, and immediately laughed. "Well, I was just about to bandage it!" She lied, only not wanting to be pitied by others. She quickly snatched the medicine from Miao Qing's hand and whispered a thank you.

Miao Qing shook her head and left, still not coming in to sit.

Lin Meng closed the door, but inexplicably let out a breath of relief. It turned out that he wasn't coming to drive her away. But when she looked down at the contraceptive pill in her hand, she lowered her eyes again.

That man had said before that she shouldn't take birth control pills, that he would be fully responsible for everything in bed because they were harmful to her health. But after the sweet words had passed, all those things from the past, just like they had died. In the end, even knowing it would be harmful, he still chose this way.

She scolded herself for overthinking. She went to the kitchen, poured herself a glass of water, and swallowed the large birth control pill with it. It was better this way; they were both just insignificant ties to each other. It was best not to create unnecessary complications.

Then, continue back to the room and tidy up your clothes.

On the other hand, at the hospital.

Big Shang's shareholder, Qinghuai, looked at his precious daughter with a smile on his face. He never expected the plan to be so successful. As soon as the two major department stores, Qiuqian and Wandai, came into play, they dealt a fatal blow to Big Shang. Qianqiu Wandai almost covered all consumer groups, instantly snatching away more than 60% of Big Shang's customers. This happened in less than two months since Qianqiu Wandai opened. If this continues, their Big Shang will inevitably be crushed by Qianqiu Wandai.

For this, the shareholders of Dasang held meeting after meeting to discuss countermeasures. But behind the seemingly invincible name was Rong Ling, the true big boss, who was incredibly wealthy and essentially untouchable. If they engaged in a price war, it would ultimately be Dasang that suffered the losses. After much deliberation, there seemed to be no solution.

Then, some rumors reached the ears of the shareholders. They knew Rong Ling had kept a mistress, a young high school girl, innocent and pure, who was very much to Rong Ling's liking. It seemed that Rong Ling also doted on her very much. So, several shareholders got together and hatched a plan, bringing out shareholder Qing Huai's daughter, Qing Yun.

These people thought this way: they guessed that Rong Ling probably liked young and innocent girls, so they also wanted to find someone for him who was young and pure. Naturally, just in case, it would be best to find someone with a similar temperament to Lin Meng, and in terms of appearance, it would be best if she had a touch of elegance. In this way, the chances of success would probably be higher. After looking around, they found that Qing Huai's daughter—Qing Yun was the most suitable candidate.

Before the rumors spread that Rong Ling had given Lin Meng's father many benefits when she obtained him, these shareholders of the big trading company didn't ask for much. They just hoped that when Qing Yun and Rong Ling got along well, Rong Ling could also let the big trading company off, giving it some breathing room. Even if they lost their position as the leader of the department store industry in J City, as long as they could operate normally, they could still make a few million yuan a year.

To think, sacrificing an innocent girl to make Rong Ling agree to such terms wouldn't be too much, would it Qing Huai’s final agreement wasn’t that simple, of course. He naturally hoped for his daughter to leap the dragon gate, ideally marrying into the Rong family. In terms of lineage, his family wasn't too shabby either, barely enough to enter the Rong family, but it was still possible. If entering the Rong family was truly impossible, then becoming Rong Ling’s concubine wouldn't be a bad option either.

The head of the Rong family has always enjoyed certain unwritten privileges, namely the ability to have many concubines. Furthermore, children born to concubines are also recognized by the family. Although they cannot enter the main Rong family gate, all their expenses before adulthood are fully covered by the Rong family. If a son is born, upon reaching adulthood, he can even request to return to the Rong family and compete for the position of the next head. If his strength is exceptional, he has a certain chance of becoming the head of the Rong family!

Qing Huai heard that Rong Ling wasn't the son of the previous head of the family's main wife, but rather a concubine. Moreover, in the history of the Rong family, there seemed to be several sons born to concubines who ultimately became the heads of the family. Under this system of natural selection, the chosen headmaster would naturally be exceptionally capable, ensuring that the Rong family remained prosperous and enduring!

Qing Huai just thought about his daughter giving birth to a son for Rong Ling, that in the future, if his grandson is promising and becomes the next head of the Rong family, he would be the grandfather! In this way, wealth and honor would be within reach!

That's why Qing Huai was willing to give up his precious daughter!

That day, she specially designed a scheme, getting someone to invite Rong Ling to play golf. Then, Qing Yun waited outside the parking lot. When Rong Ling's car was about to come out, she pretended nonchalantly to walk onto the road, almost bumping into him. Qing Yun started crying then, clear tears sliding from her eyes and hanging on her fair and delicate cheeks. That look was actually three tenths like Lin Meng's. With that fragile appearance, ten men would soften their hearts seeing it. So, as soon as Rong Ling got out of the car, he saw that face. Thus, Qing Yun successfully lured Rong Ling with this act, getting him to escort her to the hospital personally. Afterward, she even stayed behind. But what she didn't know was that the plan went so smoothly because Rong Ling at that time had the intention of stimulating Lin Meng's heart!

These two, father and daughter, are now both very happy. It could be said that "ignorance is bliss"!

"Yunya, put in more effort!" Qinghuai encouraged.

Qingyun smiled and nodded. Her fair face was slightly flushed. She hadn't expected Rongling to be so handsome, so she was truly smitten. However, when she thought about the fact that she had captured Rongling's attention because she resembled Lin Meng, and then adopted Lin Meng's fragile and tearful demeanor, a feeling of unease arose in her heart.

She was a princess, pampered from childhood to adulthood, always growing up in a greenhouse. Where could she possibly have so many tears to cry! But now, it's just the beginning, and she wasn't sure if, if she didn't pretend to be weak, Rong Ling would kick her out. So, even though she felt uncomfortable inside, she still had to keep up the act. She would wait for the right opportunity and slowly go back to being herself!

She thought this way, and also made up her mind, to hook Rong Ling!

It was also on that same night, Lin Dong finished his evening self-study and called his younger sister, Lin Zi, back to his room.

"This, isn't it you!" Lin Dong stretched out his hand and pointed at the girl on the computer video whose face had been partially obscured by a mosaic.

Lin Zi's face immediately changed.

Isn't she the one involved Shouldn't she know best! But why would such a video appear

"Brother..."

She panicked and turned to look at Lin Dong!

Lin Dong frowned, already understanding in his heart. "You look first, after you're done looking, come and tell me what is going on!"

His own sister, with whom he shares blood ties, there's no way Lin Dong would just ignore her plight!

Lin Dong walked out. Lin Zi sat down in front of the computer, trembling hands, clicked the mouse, and started the video playback. As she watched the two people intertwined and writhing on the screen, her face paled all the way down. She thought this was it, that everything should be clear now, but unexpectedly, things were far from over.

The entire video is a full half hour long, and there aren't many parts that have been cut out. It almost captured her every anomaly from beginning to end. Although the video has blurred her and Zhou Xiangliang with mosaics, if you are familiar with the two people, you can probably recognize them! What's even worse is that the person who recorded the video almost always filmed directly at her face. Because she was being pressed against the wall by Zhou Xiangliang, Zhou Xiangliang actually had his back to the camera for most of the time, while she, unfortunately, had her face facing the camera most of the time.

And the mosaic wasn't done very well either, it was blurry and you could just barely make out the person's face. Lin Zi couldn't help but curse the person who filmed the video, what a pain in the ass to film it! Since they filmed it, why were they so shameless about uploading it online! If they were going to put mosaic on it, why couldn't they just do it properly and add more mosaic!

"Bastard...bastard!"

She twisted up her little face and muttered curses under her breath. Men and women alike were branded as scum!

At this moment, she was panicked, desperate, and furious!

Having stepped out of the house, he was even more at a loss.

"Brother, what do we do! Quickly take down that video!"

Lin Dong shook his head and slowly told her. Then Lin Zi learned in despair that the video had been spreading for almost two days, and by now, it was probably downloaded on many people's computers. It was completely impossible to stop or eliminate.

Lin Zi thought with some terror, after so long a time, weren't all her relatives and friends around watching this recording Didn't they all guess that the girl was her!

The moment she thought of it, she felt like she was about to go crazy!

"It's all Lin Meng's fault, it's all her fault, it's all her fault!" she screamed miserably, immediately startling Mrs. Lin in the master bedroom.

"Zi Zi, what's wrong!" Lin's wife came out with concern.

Lin Zi suddenly burst into tears, lowered her head, and sat down on the sofa, sobbing.

When Lin's wife learned the truth, she was furious.

"How can this be! How can this be!" Mrs. Lin exclaimed angrily. "You have to make your father come back immediately! This matter, we need an explanation for it!"

Saying that, she immediately called Lin Bao. As soon as Lin Bao heard his wife's heavy tone on the phone, he rushed back immediately.

When he learned the truth of the matter, he couldn't help but frown. “Could there be some misunderstanding here Mengmeng wouldn't do something like this.”

The youngest daughter, she also grew up under his watch. She's not that kind of person, not cruel enough!

Lin's wife was furious, and she roared at Lin Bao. "Do you still think Mengmeng is the same Mengmeng as before I tell you, she has changed long ago. You haven't learned your lesson from that apartment incident! Hmph, I told you so, children that aren't your own are hard to raise, but you wouldn't listen. Now look, even Zizi has been harmed because of you. You're still protecting her, do you want to wait until she harms our whole family before you regret it!"

Lin Bao's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly remembered what Lin Zi had said about Mengmeng on the car that day. Being told this by his own bedside person, he began to doubt it himself. But the juice had always been in his car. That day, he remembered Mengmeng putting it there casually. If he hadn't gone to pick up Mengmeng, the bottle of juice wouldn't have stayed in his car. In the end, it was just a coincidence.

He told his family about his analysis.

Lin's wife is a protective mother, and even more so, she is partial. There's more to be said about this.

"At that time, you took away Mengmeng, so the juice was left behind. But who knows what she intends to do with that juice, perhaps, she's keeping it to harm Zizi!"

Lin Bao was speechless. After a moment of thought, he frowned and said, "It's not a good idea for us to keep guessing here. I think we should ask Mengmeng face-to-face!"

“That's natural!” Lin’s wife sneered. “Asking is what one naturally does, otherwise Mengmeng would think she had hooked up with Rong Ling and could run wild. Our little Zizi will always be her elder sister, a whole head taller than her. She isn’t so muddledheaded to let herself be bullied like that. I'm just afraid that girl won't tell the truth and end up denying everything!”

Lin Bao remained silent, his expression unreadable. Seeing this, Mrs. Lin felt a surge of annoyance. She thought to herself, "That wild woman's child will surely become a nuisance! I should have killed the child back then and kept it out of the house." But now, it was too late. All she could do was curse him silently in her heart.

Over there, Lin Bao fell silent for a moment, made up his mind, and called Lin Meng, directly asking about this matter.

"I don't know anything about it. That juice was given to me by my classmate. If not for that day's incident, I would have already drunk it. So, the matter of drugging has nothing to do with me!"

Lin Meng gritted her teeth and replied, a cold fury burning in her heart. How dare Lin Zi suspect her and blame all the faults on her! Besides, she knew the juice had been drugged, yet cruelly poured it into her mouth! Could that be justified! If not for her, how would she have stooped to begging Rong Ling! How could she have lost control and acted like a wanton woman, pestering Rong Ling and earning his disgust!

Her relationship with Rong Ling was already on shaky ground, but now thanks to Lin Zi's push, it has completely soured. She can't even bear to think about whether there is any room for reconciliation between them anymore!

That's enough!

She was fed up!

What does she owe Lin Zi! How much does she owe the Lin family! She only provided for sixteen people's food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. She already paid it back, so why would she have to stand out as a scapegoat once something goes wrong!

I'm done, I've lost all hope!

"Dad, I didn't do anything! That's it!"

She hung up the phone, with no more hesitation!

Lin Bao didn't expect Lin Meng to hang up on him. Suddenly, his face darkened.

After all these years of marriage, Lin Qi knew her husband well. Seeing this, she couldn't help but smirk coldly. "Well What did she say!"

Lin Bao let out a cold snort, but it spoke volumes.

With a graceful air, she leaped into her wife's embrace and burst into tears.

The atmosphere in this house immediately became somber.

Lin Bao, after decades of wandering the world, had considerable experience. Upon hearing about Lin Zi's situation, he immediately paid attention to it.

"It's hard to tell who is who now, Zizi. You shouldn't cause any trouble. These days, your father has given you sick leave so you don't have to go to school. That way, no one will see you and it won't be easy for them to think of that girl as you!"

"Sobbing, "But Dad, that video has already gone viral! Do you want me to stay locked in this house forever Sobbing, Dad, please find a way to make it disappear from the internet...sob..."

“What kind of stupid talk is that!” Lin Dong retorted. “This kind of video circulating among people can't be deleted by just one or a few individuals. Even if the entire nation were mobilized, it wouldn't be able to extinguish this spark.”

"Waaaah... What am I supposed to do... That video won't disappear for a day, so I have to hide for a day. If it never disappears, will I have to hide my whole life..."

Thinking of this, Lin Zi was terrified!

The faces of everyone in the house turned gloomy.

Mrs. Lin, holding Miss Lin, also burst into tears, at a loss what to do!

After a long time, Lin Bao spoke in a low voice; "It's not as serious as you said. As people grow older, their appearance changes too. It's not necessary to hide for such a long time!"

"Oh, but I'll have to hide for a long time..."

"Besides, hiding isn't a solution," Lin's wife cried, sighing. "Anyone who knows ZiZi will recognize her in the video. Once rumors start spreading, how can ZiZi possibly live Let alone ever getting married!"

"Let's go abroad!" Lin Dong suddenly blurted out, waking everyone up with his surprising suggestion.

“Studying abroad can be a pretty good excuse for family and friends. Letting ZiZi stay overseas for a few years, with no contact here, naturally everyone will forget her face and this whole thing. These online videos only have a period of hype, after that time, they'll be replaced by other videos. A few years later, ZiZi will look different, even if the video is still circulating, it won't really have anything to do with her anymore!”

Lin Bao was very excited to hear this. Lin's wife also thought this was a good idea. Even Lin Zi herself, after hearing it, felt quite interested. Studying abroad is a great honor for most students! Their school sends many students abroad every year. She had this idea before, but after mentioning it several times, she was scolded by her parents and gave up on it. The main reason was that studying abroad cost a lot of money. Although the Lin family had some money, most of it was invested in the construction industry and couldn't afford the expenses of studying abroad!

At present, it seems that studying abroad is the only way out!

The next day, when Lin Zi woke up, her wife told her that after talking to Lin Bao last night, going abroad was basically decided. But handling this matter properly wasn't something that could be done overnight. It involved dealing with various documents in different places, contacting foreign universities, and finding all sorts of intermediaries. Moreover, money wasn't a small sum!

Lin Bao desperately hoped that Rong Ling would let him off the hook and allow him to finish building the apartment complex he had in hand. He was reluctant to sell it to someone else because, you see, a finished apartment building is a very profitable business. If he sold it all, he could make millions, even tens of millions! So, Lin Bao was still holding onto the project. As a result, his finances were a bit tight right now. He needed to carefully plan this trip abroad. In the meantime, Lin Zi still had to pretend to be sick and stay home.

Just as Lin's wife said this, Lin Zixin felt a sense of relief and her heart settled.

Just so, she wasn't thinking about going abroad immediately either, because before that, she still had to get even with Lin Meng! She felt like she had suffered a huge loss under Lin Meng's hand, it was simply humiliating. If she didn't get back at her, wouldn't that mean Lin Meng looked down on her Lin Zi was a person with a very strong desire for revenge. Only others owed her, and she never owed anyone else. So, Lin Meng, she had to make her pay, so she could vent the anger in her heart.

She took sick leave, so she naturally couldn't appear at school. But it didn't matter, because even though she wasn't there, she still had friends at school. She calculated roughly, thinking that this was only two days, and the students at school were all busy with classes, they probably wouldn't have much time to go online, so they probably hadn't seen the video yet. Even if they did see it, they might just suspect it was her, but couldn't be sure. In short, in terms of time, it was still beneficial for her actions. Furthermore, she still had two trump cards in her hand --

Zhu Xiaomeng and Yang Haohang, these two friends of Lin Meng who have been with her since childhood, should be willing to help. Even if they are not willing, she will make the two of them willing. After all, the two of them have done a lot of "bad things" in the past, she can totally use those things to blackmail them!

And at this point, the videos she'd previously filmed should also be used!

Forest Dream! River Break the Waves!

Lin Zi pinched her phone, watching the video of the two kissing. A cold smile appeared on her face!

After that, she came up with an even more vicious idea. She planned to lure Lin Meng in, either by deceiving her, drugging her, or giving her aphrodisiacs. Then, she would force Zhou Xiangliang to rape Lin Meng, record the whole process, and upload it online. She wouldn't have a good life, and she certainly wouldn't let Lin Meng have a good life either!fortunes will be shared with this child!Lowering her head, she fought the urge to touch her stomach. Her lips twitched slightly, a hint of satisfaction playing on them. After pacing the operating tab...
