Chapter 469 Scumbag
Chapter 469 Scumbag
Although both were errand runners, Lu Yi received slightly better treatment than Ming Nianxi.
Even if Qin Hao were to order him around, he wouldn't be as blunt and sarcastic as Ming Nianxi's team leader.
In contrast, Ming Nianxi's ordinary family background was evident from her clothes and appearance. In the eyes of these old employees who treated people differently based on their social status, she was just an ordinary working girl.
It is said that clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse, and Ming Nianxi naturally understands this principle.
She never expected that this pretty boy could actually get into Licheng Group, and not only that, he was treated better than her.
The two would occasionally run into each other while running errands, but they never felt any sympathy for each other.
Ming Nianxi disliked Lu Yi from the bottom of her heart and couldn't help but roll her eyes at him frequently.
At first, Lu Yi thought it was a misunderstanding, but after working for a week straight, he was constantly being glared at.
He finally realized that the other party really did have a problem with him.
That day, the two met again on their way to deliver documents. Lu Yi stepped forward and stopped Ming Nianxi: "Excuse me, may I ask you a question?"
Ming Nianxi didn't even look up: "No comment. Besides, I don't talk to people with warped values."
This was the first time in Lu Boyi's life that he had encountered something so absurd, and a surge of anger instantly rose within him.
How is his worldview distorted?
This girl must have been kicked in the head by a donkey!
Without thinking twice, he grabbed Ming Nianxi by the back of her collar and headed towards the stairwell.
— Pulling her arm might be inappropriate, and grabbing her wrist would seem too deliberate, so this is the simplest way.
"oops……"
Just as Ming Nianxi was about to shout "Let go," Lu Boyi suddenly stopped.
A series of suggestive breathing sounds came from the stairwell.
The two stared intently, then froze on the spot—the two disheveled individuals were none other than Qin Hao and Ming Nianxi's team leader!
The company clearly stipulates that office romances are not allowed, but these two people who usually seem to be at odds are actually in this kind of relationship!
Ming Nianxi clicked her tongue in amazement: It's such a pity that someone with such acting skills isn't pursuing a career in the entertainment industry.
Lu Boyi instinctively reached out and covered Ming Nianxi's eyes, but she had already seen everything clearly.
A few seconds later, he grabbed Ming Nianxi and quickly left the stairwell, heading towards the garden outside the company.
Ming Nianxi was still in a daze, her mind filled with the scene she had just witnessed.
Seeing her absent-minded look, Lu Boyi waved his hand in front of her eyes: "Don't think about those unclean things."
Ming Nianxi snapped out of her daze and sneered, "Now you know how to avoid suspicion? Isn't that what you're good at?"
Lu Boyi's brows furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly: "What do you mean by that?"
Seeing his bewildered expression, Ming Nianxi didn't bother beating around the bush and said bluntly, "You're living off a woman, can't you at least have some professional ethics?"
"Don't be so fickle. The woman you were with at the airport last time was quite nice. You can't be so heartless."
I don't know why?
She instinctively liked the woman at the airport, and felt she looked somewhat familiar.
I just don't like my sister being deceived or let down.
Lu Boyi was completely confused: "Airport lady? When did I ever meet any lady at the airport?"
Seeing that he still wanted to deny it, Ming Nianxi immediately gave the date and location of that day, and added, "I saw you accept another woman's key just two days ago. Don't try to play the innocent in front of me!"
His expression was one of smug satisfaction at catching someone cheating in bed.
Lu Boyi suddenly realized why this girl rolled her eyes at him every day.
It turns out that it was a misunderstanding that he was two-timing someone and being kept by someone else.
He patiently explained, "I don't have a girlfriend."
"Scumbag!" Ming Nianxi scoffed. "She's paying to support you, and you still won't admit she's your girlfriend? But then again, you're being kept, so you can't really be considered her boyfriend."
Looking at her resolute expression, Lu Boyi knew that any further explanation would be futile, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "I... I haven't had a relationship with anyone."
Ming Nianxi raised an eyebrow, her eyes full of sarcasm: "Impressive skills! You managed to get these older women to willingly spend money on you without even having to offer themselves. This is a skill that not everyone can learn."
Just as Lu Boyi was about to say something more, a "plop" sound came from behind him, and two colleagues from the same department popped out from behind the vase.
The two men, with expressions of amused morbid curiosity, awkwardly waved their hands, saying, "You guys go on. We didn't mean to eavesdrop. We've been hiding here for a while; you came here on your own."
Before the words were even finished, the two of them ran off in a flash.
Little did they know that the handsome new guy, Lu Yi, was actually a scumbag who cheated on several women!
The worst part is that he lives off his wife.
It seems that handsome people are indeed unreliable.
Watching the two figures run away, Lu Boyi sighed and rubbed his forehead.
Why did he suddenly stop that girl on a whim?
Now look what's happened! The misunderstanding hasn't been cleared up, and it's only created more trouble.
Ming Nianxi also panicked.
There are no secrets in a company. This matter will spread throughout the department in less than a day, and in less than a month, the whole company will probably know.
She quietly took two steps back, hoping to slip away unnoticed.
"Stop." Lu Boyi's voice suddenly rang out.
Ming Nianxi stopped and turned around, forcing a smile that didn't reach her eyes: "What else is there? This has nothing to do with me. I didn't know anyone was here!"
Besides, he pulled me here himself; if he hadn't, none of this would have happened.
Lu Boyi has never been one to explain himself, but for some reason, the way Ming Nianxi looks at him with prejudice every day makes him feel suffocated.
"Listen carefully!"
His voice was cold and hard, carrying an unquestionable aura.
"The person with me at the airport that time was my mother; the person who gave me the keys at the entrance of the residential complex was my cousin."
Ming Nianxi's lips twitched violently, her face filled with disbelief: "Wh-what?"
"Didn't you hear me?" Lu Boyi raised an eyebrow, his eyes filled with mockery.
"No! I heard you clearly!" Ming Nianxi's cheeks instantly burned, so embarrassed she didn't know what to do with her hands and feet. The words came out without thinking, "But... was your mother old enough when she gave birth to you?"
Lu Boyi sighed helplessly, his tone tinged with amusement: "Do you want me to take a picture of my mother's ID card and show it to you?"
"No, no! Absolutely not!" Ming Nianxi hurriedly waved her hands, wishing she could disappear into a crack in the ground.
— What nonsense was she just spouting?!
Lu Boyi felt a tightness in his chest when he thought about how his reputation had been ruined by this girl after only one week at work.
He stared at the little girl in front of him. She had her head down, her ears were bright red, and she looked adorably dazed. He was furious: He wanted to strangle her.
That seems too cruel.
But I've gotten myself into such a big mess.
