Chapter 744: Deceived Again
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Chen Jiao panicked.
She had yet to establish absolute trust in Yi Zheng. If Yi Zheng knew what she had just said, her previous efforts would be in vain!
This damn Shi Man actually learned to hold back!
Just as she was panicking about how she would deal with Yi Zheng’s questioning later, she heard Shi Man suddenly laugh behind her.
She immediately looked over warily. “What are you laughing at?”
Shi Man looked at her as if she was a fool. “I was just teasing you. There’s no recording equipment in this car. Don’t tell me you took it seriously?”
Chen Jiao’s eyes widened in disbelief. “How dare you lie to me!”
“So what if I did?” Shi Man narrowed her eyes and smiled at her, looking dignified.
Chen Jiao flew into a rage out of humiliation and said, “Miss Shi, you can’t tease me like this just because of CEO Yi’s normal relationship with me! You’re the eldest daughter of the Shi family after all. If this gets out, you’ll only be mocked!”
Shi Man smiled faintly and said, “You only dare to talk to me like this knowing that there’s no recording equipment here. It seems that your relationship with Yi Zheng isn’t that good. Otherwise, why would you worry so much?”
Chen Jiao’s face turned pale. “President Yi and I only have a business relationship now, but everything I said that night is true. Although President Yi ordered me not to tell you about this, I don’t think it’s fair to you. Your fiance was with another woman before marriage, and he selfishly hid it from you. Now that you know this, will you still choose to marry him?”
Chen Jiao was provoking Shi Man almost hysterically.
At this point, she wanted to see Shi Man break down.
No one would be able to bear it if her fiance had another woman before marriage.
If Shi Man endured it, Chen Jiao would look down on her. However, if Shi Man couldn’t bear it, it would suit her. In short, she didn’t want Shi Man to feel good!
The atmosphere in the car suddenly turned cold.
Chen Jiao smiled proudly and was already prepared to see Shi Man’s embarrassed expression. However, she did not expect Shi Man to only move her body slightly.
She seemed to be tired of sitting. She changed into a more comfortable position and leaned against the back of the seat. She raised her hand and picked up her cell phone. “I’m sorry, Chen Jiao. I only said that there’s no recording equipment in this car. I didn’t say that my phone wasn’t on the recording mode just now.”
The chauffeur couldn’t help but laugh.
Chen Jiao was so angry that her face turned green. This time, she couldn’t care less. She raised her hand and pointed at Shi Man’s nose as she scolded, “You sinister bitch, you tricked me! I just want to tell the truth. I don’t mean anything else. Don’t twist the truth!”
Shi Man raised her eyebrows innocently. “What you mean would be interpreted based on Yi Zheng’s own understanding.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the car had already stopped steadily in front of the villa.
Chen Jiao looked at the car in front of her in panic and met Yi Zheng’s cold eyes. She was so frightened that she immediately shivered.
However, she forced herself to swallow calmly. She opened the car door and walked up to Yi Zheng as if nothing had happened. “I’m sorry, President Yi. 1 didn’t take good care of Miss Shi’s emotions in the car just now. If she misunderstood anything, you can just blame me. I’m willing to take responsibility.”
She wanted to take the blame first so that Yi Zheng would not be so angry when he heard the recording later.
After saying this, she did not forget to look up at Tang Zhe timidly. “Cousin, I really didn’t mean to make Miss Shi angry. Miss Shi asked about that night and I couldn’t lie, but I really didn’t mean to say the wrong thing!”
She wanted to gain Tang Zhe’s sympathy for her by saying this. After all, this man had been very loving and doting on her from the beginning. There was no reason for him not to stand up for her at this time.
However, after she finished performing the scene she thought was perfect, she did not expect face silence.
How could this be?
Chen Jiao’s heart skipped a beat. When she looked up, she saw Tang Zhe’s angry face and Yi Zheng’s bloodthirsty gaze.
Her heart skipped a beat as she retreated until she bumped into a soft body behind her.
She subconsciously turned around. After seeing that it was Shi Man, the hatred that flashed across her eyes quickly turned into a pitiful grievance. “Miss Shi, please don’t blame President Yi for what happened that night. President Yi and I really didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t worry, I won’t interfere in your relationship. I just want to protect my hard-earned job!”
Shi Man watched indifferently as Chen Jiao continued her act. After she finished saying her lines, she smiled and pressed the screen to hand it to her. “I’m sorry, I didn’t make myself clear just now. I wasn’t not recording. 1 was on the line with Yi Zheng, so Chen Jiao, you don’t have to act anymore. The two of them have long heard what you didn’t mean just now..”
