Chapter 415: Chapter 415: Ruanruan: She Lives as Many Women Dream To

Lin Hao did not nod as Qin Ruan had expected, instead shaking his head with an indescribable look on his face. "It’s hard to say about this woman."

With the corner of her eye, Qin Ruan glanced at Li Manning sitting aside. Smiling, she asked ambiguously, "Oh? Why is it hard to say? Do you know some insider information?"

Lin Hao’s tense face broke into a shallow smile. "You’ve asked the right person. I do know a bit."

"What do you know?" Qin Ruan’s curiosity was piqued by him.

Li Manning, who was sitting next to Qin Ruan, also looked curiously at the man sitting before her.

She was sure she didn’t know Lin Hao. They had never crossed paths before.

She was curious what he knew about her.

Lin Hao said to Qin Ruan, "In the chaotic and corrupted world of the entertainment circle, all people see about Li Manning is her glamorous side. Nobody knows that she was a puppet, being manipulated."

Few outsiders knew about these things, but Lin Hao was well aware.

Thinking of his position next to Su Jingshu, Qin Ruan smiled. "It seems you really do know some secrets."

Lin Hao asked her, "Do you know Nangong Chang?"

Qin Ruan nodded. "Yes, I attended his wedding not long ago. That’s when Li Manning died."

Lin Hao said, "Nangong Chang and Su Jingshu had a relationship long ago. During that time, Li Manning was with Nangong Chang for a while. Su Jingshu hated her with a passion, she even arranged for one of Li Manning’s staff to climb into Nangong Chang’s bed."

Thinking about her memories from the police station the night before, Qin Ruan raised an eyebrow and asked Lin Hao, "You’re talking about Li Manning’s makeup artist?"

Lin Hao thought for a moment and replied, "It seems so, I can’t remember exactly. It was one of Li Manning’s staff members, quite glamorous. Compared to Li Manning herself, though, there was no competition."

Qin Ruan suspected that this person was Li Manning’s make-up artist the whole time. She was the only one available during Li Manning’s relationship with Nangong Chang to cause such trouble.

What she didn’t expect, though, was Su Jingshu’s aggravation of the situation.

She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Then what happened?"

Lin Hao explained, "One of Li Manning’s staff members slept with Nangong Chang but didn’t gain any benefits. Nobody knew that it was deliberately encouraged by Su Jingshu. Nangong Chang thought that it was condoned by Li Manning, leading to a conflict between them. Su Jingshu took advantage of the situation when their relationship was on thin ice, completely ruined it, and had Nangong Chang dump Li Manning."

This contradicted Lin Hao’s previous statement about Li Manning being a manipulated puppet, causing Qin Ruan to look thoughtful. "Li Manning just lost a sponsor. How did she become a manipulated puppet?"

Lin Hao sneered, "The young master Nangong was quite attracted to Li Manning and neglected Su Jingshu. How could she sit back and let Li Manning off the hook?"

Qin Ruan’s face changed slightly, "What did Su Jingshu do?"

"Li Manning has a pair of irresponsible parents. After Su Jingshu came to know this, she provided them with lots of resources both secretly and openly. Once the money-driven parents of the Li family saw, they exploited their daughter like a beast of burden. This led to her becoming weaker and weaker due to overworking.

During this time, Li Manning met a man. They haven’t been dating for long when he passed away. He, too, died under Su Jingshu’s scheme. She forced the man to die as well, without even showing her face."

Qin Ruan sniffed out the scent of conspiracy. "How did she cause his death?"

Lin Hao replied, "Su Jingshu threw a top-notch resource of the entertainment circle at Li Manning’s parents and had someone tell them that once Li Manning did something inappropriate, such resources would not fall into her hands.

The implication was that Li Manning was not allowed to fall in love. Back then, Li Manning and her boyfriend were in a passionate relationship. Li Manning’s parents could not stand to see the boyfriend ruin their golden goose.

They constantly suppressed Li Manning’s boyfriend, stuff happened that lead to him losing his job and accidentally killing someone during a dispute. Li Manning’s parents then tried to cover it up.

In this day and age of law and order, there is no way they would have been able to do this without Su Jingshu’s involvement. This was all arranged by Su Jingshu, and I saw it with my own eyes. No one could have imagined a lady from an aristocratic family scheming against a female star."

Qin Ruan was shocked at Su Jingshu’s extreme hatred and ruthlessness. "Does Su Jingshu really resent Li Manning this much?"

The cold sneer on Lin Hao’s face deepened. "It’s more than just resentment. It’s deep-seated hatred."

"What’s the deep hatred between them?"

"Nangong Chang once said something that Su Jingshu has held against him until now."

"What did he say?"

"He praised that Li Manning’s hands were as soft as yulan magnolia petals and her skin was as smooth as jade. Compared to Su Jingshu, there’s a world of difference."

Qin Ruan’s lips twitched slightly as she glanced at Li Manning, whose face was grim and whose body was covered in strong evil Qi.

Now she was a ghost with a pale-green complexion, but that couldn’t hide her beautiful skin.

Upon seeing her, even women would feel the urge to touch her, let alone the men who think with their lower half of their bodies.

"Isn’t Su Jingshu’s resentment going too far? Just because of a single sentence, she has driven a person to death. And even after all these years, she still hasn’t let Li Manning off."

Lin Hao chuckled. "Just that? You underestimate that woman. She is far more ruthless than you can imagine. Compared with her, our life-or-death experience in West City is trivial."

Catching the sarcasm and the repressed release hidden in his words, Qin Ruan’s eyes flickered. "So she began to suspect you, made you become a suspect, sent you to assassinate master number three as a sacrificial lamb while also test the waters with the Huo family?"

This time, Lin Hao was silent. His lips pressed tightly together, and he said nothing.

Qin Ruan continued, "In the past few years, have you been with Su Jingshu all the time?"

Lin Hao gazed deeply at Qin Ruan, shaking his head in silence and not uttering a word.

A smile spread across Qin Ruan’s face as she exaggerated, "Brother Hao, please don’t tell me that you have fallen in love with Su Jingshu."

Lin Hao’s face twisted as if he’d been force-fed something disgusting. "Absolutely not. That woman only cares for herself, treating us like her playthings to pass the time."

Qin Ruan pensively smiled, then suddenly bursted into laughter. "Su Jingshu really knows how to live her life freely, in ways that many women can only dream of. She’s clever and crafty, resorting to unscrupulous means to achieve her goals. The only flaw is her ruthless heart and the blood on her hands. Karma will eventually catch up, and her life won’t last long."

Lin Hao disagreed with her last comment, "Looking at her current situation, as long as the Su Family stands, living to a ripe old age doesn’t seem to be a problem."

Qin Ruan’s lips curved into a smirk, her face showing a hint of an aloof smile. "Who can guarantee that the Su family won’t fall? Besides, one’s sins cannot be washed away by their family background. Su Jingshu’s karma is heavy, her time simply hasn’t come yet."

Lin Hao’s eyebrows shot up, and he stared at Qin Ruan incredulously. "I haven’t seen you for years and you’ve been cultivating Buddhism this entire time? You’re only talking in ways that I can’t understand."

Qin Ruan’s eyes sparkled with a hint of amusement as she asked at a relaxed pace, "Brother Hao, do you believe in karma?"
