Chapter 385 - Love At First Sight For Ye Ling
“Shen Qianshu, you…”
Lu Mengxi laughed coldly and said, “What exactly do you want for you to able to let her off? She is just a child that has been spoiled by our family.”
“Child? Twenty-year-old child? Haha, Lu Family’s ladies sure turn ripe slowly!” Shen Qianshu ridiculed and said. “Living in this world, there are some things that you can do, and some that you cannot. The law sets minimum standards for ethical behavior and is used to punish those who commit crimes. If she committed a crime, then she has to be punished according to law. Let me tell you this clearly, Lu Mengyun will surely go to jail! Rather than telling me nonsense here, why don’t you go back and find a good lawyer to let her have a shorter jail term!”
Lu Mengyun took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and said, “Shen Qianshu, don’t regret your decision!”
She turned and stomped out of the office. Chen Qiuxiang walked in, flustered and anxious. Shen Qianshu and Lu Mengyun’s matter had long been spreading on the Internet, and naturally, she knew what Lu Mengxi’s purpose for visiting was. “She didn’t say anything serious right?”
Shen Qianshu gave her a smile. In the afternoon, Li Zhiyuan came and wanted her to treat him to lunch. She brought Li Zhiyuan to a signature Hunan cuisine restaurant and ordered four spicy dishes at one go. Although Li Zhiyuan could eat spicy food, he was not as powerful as Shen Qianshu in handling spice. His eyes teared, and his lips were red and swollen, causing Shen Qianshu to have a good laugh.
“Little CEO Li, I thought that you would plead with me to let Lu Mengyun off.”
“She paid someone to kill for her, why would I beg you to let her off? I am pursuing you now. If I were to plead for her, how can I be qualified to like you?” Li Zhiyuan smiled warmly and continued. “Lu Mengyun deserves punishment, and I will not plead for her. Moreover, you’re not even the one sentencing her.”
Little CEO Li’s words touched her heart deeply. She did not make a misjudgment after all.
“It’s already her blessing that you and Tong Hua were unharmed. If not, it would not be as simple as going to jail. Even if Ye Ling did not take action, he would not have let Lu Mengyun off too. Everyone said that it was Ye Yifan’s doing.”
However, Li Zhiyuan knew clearly that it was Ye Ling’s.
After becoming closer with little CEO Li, she was already more relaxed in front of him and was not as nervous as compared to when she was with Ye Ling. She was chatting with him happily when Li Zhiyuan suddenly said, “Qianshu, you… should stay away from Lu Mengxi.”
This was already the second time someone told her to stay away from Lu Mengxi.
First Ye Ling and now Li Zhiyuan.
“She’s in the same company as me, so we are bound to see other at one point. How do I stay away? Little CEO Li, why do you want me to stay away from her?”
Li Zhiyuan seemed to be hiding something. He brushed her off and said, “Just listen to me and you will not go wrong.”
His demeanor suddenly changed. He smiled widely and said, “If you’re are scared, you can come to me. I will protect you.”
“…” Shen Qianshu laughed and said. “I have someone more powerful to go to!”
A very powerful someone.
“Isn’t the more the better?” Li Zhiyuan was surprised. “I don’t lose to Ye Ling in any way.”
“You still lose to him in something.”
“What?” Li Zhiyuan was dumbfounded. In which aspect did he lose to Ye Ling?
Shen Qianshu winked mischievously and said, “You are not as handsome as him!”
Li Zhiyuan was speechless.
Li Zhiyuan thought of endless possibilities. He thought that Shen Qianshu would say something along the lines of family background or capabilities. He never once thought that she would say that he was not as handsome as him!
It was really… ridiculous!
“Do I really lose to him in terms of looks?”
Shen Qianshu was also not sure what was happening. She smiled and felt that she had kept many years of secret in her. Recently, she always had the urge to find someone to pour her heart to. “Let me tell you a secret, ok?”
Shen Qianshu put a finger to her lips mischievously and endearingly said, “It was love at first for me when I saw Ye Ling in Paris back then!”
