Chapter 50: She’s Just a Two-Faced Bitch

“I… I…” Ling Yuqing’s face was turning paler by the second, looking around helplessly.

Right then, the audience finally understood what was going on and had immediately switched sides to criticize Ling Yuqing.

“She’s just a two-faced bitch!”

“Right? She’s the kind of person that pretend to be weak to emotionally blackmail others, how annoying!”

“What a drama queen, why didn’t she get into acting? She’s so good at it, she even convinced Guan Meiyi!”

“Tsk, how did you know Guan Meiyi didn’t know about her plan? Who knows, maybe they were in cahoots? The socialite circle’s a deep trench, don’t just look at the surface-”

“True, Guan Meiyi immediately started to criticize Miss Ling the moment she got there. She didn’t ask about what happened at all, that’s definitely suspicious…”

All these comments definitely did their damage, Guan Meiyi was having trouble maintaining her facade. Her eyes kept gravitating towards Ruan Zeyan, somehow she felt that the man was getting colder by the minute.

Guan Meiyi’s heart sank, she knew the current situation was against her. She wanted to embarrass Ling Tianya, but who knew Ling Yuqing was an absolute idiot and would fall into Ling Tianya’s trap just like that.

“What are you saying? Our Meiyi had been in the ballroom, why would she know about this? If you dare say another word of rubbish, or incriminate Meiyi, I’ll make sure that your road would be bumpy from now on!” Li Fei harshly warned the people who gossiped about Guan Meiyi.

Guan Meiyi certainly held a significant amount of power in the entertainment industry, in addition to her family background, so Li Fei’s words of warning were certainly useful The people that still wanted a future in the entertainment industry were smart enough to shut up at least.

Guan Meiyi recentered herself, her expression changing like a switch, to one where she was suddenly enlightened. Her face was apologetic as she approached Ling Tianya, gently saying, “Yaya, I’m sorry. I didn’t understand what was going on before scolding you. I just want the family to be peaceful, I don’t want to see anything unpleasant happening. The moment I came out, I saw Yuqing crying on her knees, and I just jumped to conclusions… Ah, let’s not talk about it. It was my fault, please don’t be angry with me. I was tricked by Ling Yuqing too…”

Guan Meiyi’s words were full of sincerity, conveniently pushing all of the blame onto Ling Yuqing. She was just a sister that wanted her sisters to get along, she was tricked too. The person that caused the whole mess was still Ling Yuqing.

Ling Tianya gave Guan Meiyi a smile, “I know you’re the most kind, why would I blame you? Just don’t be so decisive and rash next time, cousin. After all, you are a public figure, it wouldn’t be good for you if word got out.”

Hearing Ling Tianya’s words, Guan Meiyi’s face froze before she smiled unnaturally. “Yes, I should be more careful. We’re about to collaborate on a new show, we should get along better as sisters, after all, we are the ones with blood relations, aren’t we?”

Guan Meiyi’s words didn’t work to just shorten the distance between her and Ling Tianya, but also to push Ling Yuqing further out of the picture. After Ling Yuqing’s stunt, everyone knew that she was not the Ling family’s biological daughter, but a step-daughter that followed her mom’s marriage into the family.

A step-daughter was actually so arrogant as to backstab the biological daughter in public, she was definitely not a good person!

Ling Yuqing was feeling a little sick to her stomach, she pinched her lips, wanting to say something, but there was nothing she could say. Even Guan Meiyi had drawn a line between them, she felt isolated in the whole situation. Giving the evil eye to Ling Tianya she said, “Ling Tianya, I will admit I was wrong!”

After tumbling through the past few years, Ling Tianya knew that she was not some pure, innocent character anymore, she had learned to put herself first. She shook the phone in her hand, “There are more videos in my phone, all of the conversations between you and your mom in the hotel’s public space. Should I play some of them to let everyone know what you’ve been talking about?”

“What…” Ling Yuqing looked at Ling Tianya’s phone in her hand. The past few days she and her mom had been talking bad about the Ling family a lot, they had even talked about the Guan family too. If those videos are exposed, then she and her mom were better off dead.
