Chapter 57: Giving Someone a Taste of Their Own Medicine (2)
“You got it?”
“Aren’t you Di An’s playmate as well? Why do I have to ask him for you?” Gu Xin whined.
“I just wanted you to have a taste of talking to Di An on the phone.”
“What do you mean?”
“I just feel bad for Di An occasionally,” Lu Manman said matter-of-factly.
She probably would never forget how back then, Di An had carefully told her: Manman, I really like Gu Xin, and I want to confess to her.
Not long after he said that, Gu Xin had proudly announced to them that she was in love with Di Yi.
She still remembered that expression on Di An’s face!
“Who’s your friend?” Gu Xin growled.
“Both.”
“Lu Manman, you ingrate, I’m hanging up!” With that, Gu Xin was ready to hang up.
“Alright, you’re already so old. Why are you still so easy to get angry?”
“You’re old! I’m only twenty-three years old,” Gu Xin said angrily. “Di An said that Jiang Yiyao isn’t in a good mood right now. She’s been locked up at home crying for two days, and her eyes are swollen from all the crying. Why are you asking about her? What’s there to ask about that fake b*tch? She’d better stay at home and cry her eyes out. Who asked her to seduce your man!”
“Mm-hm, I see. Bye.”
“Hold on,” Gu Xin called out to Lu Manman with a devious smile. “I just remembered something I once said.”
“What is it?”
“When we are together, the person that sees you first is superficial, and the person that sees me first is someone with more inner qualities. In that case, Wen Yun is indeed superficial. See how resourceful I am!” Gu Xin gloated.
Lu Manman could not help but roll her eyes. What was there to boast about?
She hung up without saying goodbye.
Her eyes narrowed as she checked her contacts. If she remembered correctly, she had even gotten hold of Jiang Yiyao’s number in the past. She found this woman pitiful and wished that she could help her out more.
Now that she thought about it, she had been such a fool back then.
Very soon, she found the number.
She pursed her lips and made a call.
It rang for a while before the call went through. “Lu Manman?”
It seemed like the other party had saved her number as well.
“It’s me.”
“Why are you calling me?” The person on the other end sounded guarded, and her tone was unpleasant.
“Don’t worry. I don’t want to fight with you.”
“A noble lady from a rich family like you wouldn’t stoop to my level,” she said sarcastically.
She was no longer pretending to be innocent and pitiful?
Lu Manman sneered. “Jiang Yiyao, do you want to talk to me?”
“What do you mean?”
“Wen Yun has been a freeloader for so many years. Now that the media has exposed him, that man has turned his back on us. He even said in front of the media that he had a relapse from alcohol. Are you willing to accept that? When the whole world was cursing you for being shameless, all he thought about was how to preserve his image. Did he even show concern for you? He probably told you not to appear in front of him ever again, right?” Lu Manman said it so slowly that Jiang Yiyao had to clench her teeth.
Jiang Yiyao screamed. “Lu Manman, that’s enough! I’ve been scolded enough. I don’t care what you say!”
“I’m not trying to be sarcastic. I’m asking if you want to work together.”
“Are you kidding me?!”
“If I were you, I would be thinking of ways to ruin Wen Yun’s reputation even more. No matter what our status is, the two of us will be the biggest victims in this. How about we work together?” Lu Manman said.
“Lu Manman, what exactly do you want?” Jiang Yiyao was being very cautious.
“What I want isn’t important. What’s important is whether you want to take it out on him. If you do, come to my house before two, and we can talk.”
“Are you trying to deceive me?”
“It’s up to you whether you want to come or not,” Lu Manman said as she smiled. “But I believe that you’re smart enough to know what to do. See you in the afternoon. Bye.”
With that, she hung up.
If something had happened, given Jiang Yiyao’s personality, she would have called Wen Yun at once to plead for help. But Wen Yun was such a realistic man. Not only would he not comfort Jiang Yiyao, but he would also be cold-blooded and merciless toward her. She had been cooped up at home these few days, enduring all the insults and Wen Yun’s ingratitude. Nobody could swallow this anger.
Hence, it was time to take advantage of her!
She sneered coldly.
Wen Yun, I will give you a taste of your own medicine. You used Jiang Yiyao to humiliate me, and I will utterly destroy your reputation!
