Chapter 207: Chapter 207: I’ll Call Moran Right Away

Lin Qian was caught off guard and stumbled backward.

At that moment, Chu Yelin, who had just changed his pants and was walking out of the dressing room, hurriedly supported her. "Be careful."

Lin Qian steadied herself and gave him a grateful smile, "Thank you."

Chu Yelin’s thin lips were pressed lightly together, his gaze sweeping towards Zhao Wan across the room, his brows and eyes filled with icy condensation.

When Zhao Wan’s gaze met his, her eyes lit up upon seeing Chu Yelin’s features.

What a handsome man!

His looks, his aura, it was on par with Yin Moran.

What’s Lin Qian compared to this?

She found such a good catch?

Jealousy swelled within Zhao Wan.

She flicked her hair beside her ear and flashed her red lips at Chu Yelin, "Handsome guy, you’re not from Su City, are you? I’d kindly warn you not to be fooled by the woman next to you. She’s nothing but trash, slept with who knows how many men, no different from a prostitute. I see you’re a man of fine taste, you could have any woman you want. How about I introduce you to someone a thousand times, no, ten thousand times better than Lin Qian, a daughter from a rich family?"

"Shut up! Who do you think you are? A dog can’t spit out ivory!"

Chu Yelin’s handsome face was cold, his peach blossom eyes filled with disgust.

Zhao Wan felt deeply stung by this blatant loathing.

After all, she was a rich young lady, and all the men around her had always been flattering and obsequious.

Yet, the few men who were close to Lin Qian never paid any attention to her!

Were they all blind?

Zhao Wan’s face alternated between pale and flushed, "How can you be so ungrateful? Oh, I get it now, you’re not actually anybody significant, you’re just a kept man that Lin Qian supports, aren’t you?"

Zhao Wan scoffed, looking down at Lin Qian with contempt, "Tell me, Lin Qian, don’t you find yourself disgusting? Just because Yin Moran was only playing with you, you immediately find someone who looks similar to him to anger him? How low and promiscuous can you be?"

As a well-known lady of Su City, she had never seen someone like Chu Yelin.

But since he bore a resemblance to Yin Moran, she took the opportunity to humiliate Lin Qian with malicious intent.

"You..."

Chu Yelin’s handsome face grew even colder, and just as he was about to speak, Lin Qian stopped him.

She gave him an apologetic smile, then turned to Zhao Wan.

"Miss Zhao, I must say, I admire your imagination. Isn’t this the moment when I should give you a round of applause?"

Insulting her was not enough, and now involving her superior?

She had to hand it to Zhao Wan’s creativity.

Lin Qian found it rather amusing, "I really didn’t want to bother with you because I simply don’t think it’s worth my time to deal with a jumping clown like you. However, since the innocent person you’re slandering is involved, I must clarify something. The gentleman here is Mr. Chu, a supervising leader from our MXL company doing an inspection. He soiled his outfit; thus, I accompanied him to buy new apparel and take the chance to test my business skills. It’s as simple as that."

"Lin Qian, did you just call me a jumping clown? Are you looking for trouble?"

Zhao Wan glared fiercely at Lin Qian, "A shameless whore, speaking so righteously, but only the devil knows what’s really going on between you two. Clothes got dirty? Could it be because the battle this morning was too fierce?"

How dare she insult her as a jumping clown?

This base creature really thinks she’s something!

"Miss Zhao, please watch your language!"

Lin Qian looked calmly at the furious Zhao Wan, "Regardless, I am the woman Yin Moran publicly acknowledged. You remember what happened at the birthday banquet, don’t you? You should be aware that Yin Moran is very protective, and if the words you said today reach his ears and he thinks you are bullying his woman, what do you think he will do to you and your Zhao Family?"

She didn’t want to bring Yin Moran into this.

But facing someone like Zhao Wan, who couldn’t control her mouth, Lin Qian didn’t mind using Yin Moran’s name to intimidate her.

After all, no matter how much people slandered her at Old Madam Yin’s birthday banquet, Yin Moran was extremely caring towards her.

Lin Qian’s confident demeanor turned Zhao Wan’s face pale.

Of course, she hadn’t forgotten what had happened at the birthday banquet.

Yin Moran’s warning and the scolding from her parents still echoed in her ears.

But, that was what happened at the birthday banquet.

Perhaps it was because of those photographs taken at the birthday banquet that Yin Moran saw Lin Qian’s true nature and gradually lost interest in her.

Otherwise, how could he possibly have kissed Qiao Xiya yesterday?

He was just toying with Lin Qian.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wan started to feel smug again.

"Lin Qian, don’t try to scare me with Yin Moran here. Get real, Yin Moran was just playing you, and once his novelty wore off, he went back to Qiao Xiya. You think Yin Moran will back you up? You think you’re worthy?"

"Oh? You don’t believe me?"

Lin Qian wasn’t in a hurry, just took out her phone and waved it, "Fine, I’ll call my Moran right now. I’ll tell him that the Zhao Family’s precious Miss Zhao hasn’t learned her lesson from the birthday banquet, that she’s slandering me maliciously outside, and ask him to give the Zhao Family and Miss Zhao a little advice."

As she spoke, Lin Qian unlocked her phone unhurriedly, searching for Yin Moran’s number.

She then glanced up at Zhao Wan with a lift of her eyes and with her delicate index finger, readied to press.

Zhao Wan’s face turned pale and she stared deadly at Lin Qian’s hand.

Seeing this, a companion quickly pulled Zhao Wan, "Let’s just go, Wanwan. Don’t stir up trouble. If she really calls Yin Moran, it won’t be good, and I don’t want to get involved."

If Yin Moran really stood up for Lin Qian, they would be in trouble.

Zhao Wan also understood this and gave Lin Qian a resentful glance, "Lin Qian, don’t be smug. I bet you’ll never become Mrs. Yin."

Damn her, always one-upping me—it’s so frustrating!

Zhao Wan was dragged away by her friend while Lin Qian turned her phone screen off and took a deep breath.

Finally, she had scared them off.

In fact, she had no intention of calling Yin Moran at all.

Lin Qian shook her head helplessly, turning to glance at Chu Yelin, only to meet his watching gaze.

Profound, amused, scrutinizing...

Lin Qian’s almond eyes twinkled, she brushed her hair by her ear and chuckled awkwardly, "Ahem, sorry, I’ve embarrassed you with that scene, President Chu."

Almost dragged the big boss into the water.

Hopefully, he won’t take it too seriously, that would be good.

"Lin Qian, as expected of our MXL’s star store manager, your statements are not usually so articulate, nor is your head usually so sharp."

Chu Yelin watched her, the light in his eyes knitting together emotions others couldn’t understand.

"Ha ha, I’ll take that as a compliment from you, President Chu."

Lin Qian laughed dryly, quickly shifting the topic, "So, the pants? Are they okay? Would you like to try another style?"

Chu Yelin chuckled softly, taking his gaze off her and looking at his reflection in the mirror, "No need, I’ll take this pair."

"Great."

Lin Qian sighed with relief, eager for Chu Yelin to finish buying the pants and leave, so she wouldn’t be made a spectacle of yet again.

After Chu Yelin settled the bill, the two left the counter one after the other.

In a corner, Zhao Wan clutched her phone, glaring hatefully at their retreating figures.

She had already recorded a short video of Chu Yelin and Lin Qian shopping for pants together and sent it to several of her chat groups.

Now everyone in the circle was talking about it.

Cheap thing, I’ll make sure she gets well promoted in the upper echelons!
