My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early

Chapter 362: 362: Xin Zaozao, Don’t You Feel Any Remorse? (Third Update)

After finding out about what happened to Mu Cidian, he visited several times.

Every time, all he could encounter was Mu Cidian’s mother. He had never once seen Xin Zaozao again.

Once, he arrived just as the doctors were resuscitating Mu Cidian. The sight moved him deeply. Several times, he wanted to inform Xin Zaozao to come over, truly fearing that Mu Cidian might actually die. But in that moment, he stubbornly believed that it wasn’t something he should be the one to tell her about, Xin Zaozao should come on her own.

Mu Cidian was lucky enough to not have actually died.

However, the way he is now is probably not much different from being dead.

Just then, he overheard what his mother said to him from outside the door.

He really didn’t know how to express what he was feeling inside.

He only thought that for someone like Mu Cidian to be alive is really a tragedy.

In the past, he always thought that Mu Cidian was very good at enduring, keeping everything bottled up inside without saying anything. Only now does he realize, what else could he do apart from enduring?

Probably no one in the world has ever truly considered or thought about him.

It’s incredible that he has been able to stay alive until now, let alone having any aspirations.

He asked, “How are you feeling today?”

Knowing that Mu Cidian couldn’t talk now, he still initiated conversation.

Mu Cidian simply looked at him.

“You look a bit better today than yesterday,” Yin Qin said, speaking to himself.

Mu Cidian gave a slight nod.

Yin Qin sat by his bed, and continued, “According to the doctors, you’ll probably be here for about a month. Being bored, I went to the police station to find out about your case. Xin Zaozao has not been very forthcoming about the incident to the police, always choosing silence instead of recalling it. Therefore, the police are still unsure of how to categorize your murder case. At the time of the incident, only you and Xin Zaozao were at the scene. Xin Zaozao’s statement is very important. To put it bluntly, whether you are guilty or not, depends on Xin Zaozao’s twenty-one thoughts.”

Mu Cidian didn’t make any sound, nor showed the slightest bit of emotion.

Yin Qin added, “Perhaps, also on the thoughts of your mother.”

But clearly, neither of them would take Mu Cidian into consideration.

Mu Cidian was simply a sacrificial pawn in the battle between Xin Zaozao and Wan Quan.

His joys and sorrows, all of his experiences, were deemed insignificant in the face of interests.

So Yin Qin kept Mu Cidian company for a while longer.

He said, “You should rest well. Besides, regarding your murder case, you definitely won’t be sentenced to death.”

Mu Cidian closed his eyes.

Yin Qin left the hospital room.

He drove to Xin Group.

He was indeed going to see Xin Zaozao. The Milky Way network had a program that Xin Group sponsored, and this year’s quota was fulfilled, so he went to discuss next year’s sponsorship contract.

In fact, he did not want to go, but it was his father who kept pushing him.

He thought about it, he actually quite wanted to meet Xin Zaozao, to see to what extent this cold-blooded woman could remain indifferent.

He drove to his destination, and went directly to the reception desk.

Yan Zihuan knocked on Xin Zaozao’s door.

Xin Zaozao was deep in work, “Are we leaving now?”

The groundbreaking ceremony at 3 o’clock.

“No, Chairman, Yin Qin from the Milky Way network is here to discuss next year’s advertising sponsorship. He’s waiting for you in the lobby, should he be seen or should we reschedule?” Yan Zihuan reported, grumbling, “Mr. Yin is really something, this kind of important matter should be told in advance, not mentioned as an afterthought. Isn’t he afraid we wouldn’t see him?”

Xin Zaozao looked up, she checked the time, “How long until we depart for the site?”

“At latest, 20 minutes.”

“Alright, have Yin Qin come up.”

“Yes.”

Yan Zihuan informed the receptionist.

After a while.

Yin Qin appeared in Xin Zaozao’s office.

Xin Zaozao was actually preparing a Motherhood Guide for Luo Xiaolang, she was honestly terrified of Luo Xiaolang, this wild child.

The moment she saw Yin Qin, she burst into laughter.

Yin Qin watched Xin Zaozao’s smiling face, his expression darkening.

He sat down across from Xin Zaozao and said, “Are you still able to laugh?”

Xin Zaozao raised an eyebrow.

“You wouldn’t even shed a tear if Mu Cidian died,” Yin Qin said with sarcastic bitterness.

Xin Zaozao’s expression faltered for a moment, she said, “Isn’t Mr. Yin here to discuss ad sponsorship?”

“Yes, and I also wanted to tell you that Mu Cidian is still alive.”

Xin Zaozao gave a thin smile at the corner of her mouth, not saying a word.

“I say, are all women really this cold and heartless? Xin Zaozao, doesn’t your conscience hurt?” Yin Qin asked her slowly, emphasizing every word.

Xin Zaozao didn’t answer.

She allowed Yin Qin to accuse her, not refuting him, remaining calm and indifferent.

Then, Yin Qin finally understood women.

When they decide to be ruthless, men are far outmatched.

Think about how Mu Cidian used to treat Xin Zaozao poorly, and now he would willingly give his heart to Xin Zaozao.

Well, now.

Xin Zaozao has given up, truly, completely given up.

He asked, “What are you working on?”

Xin Zaozao had already shifted her attention back to the screen.

Xin Zaozao turned her eyes to Yin Qin.

She said, “Oh, just working on something. I’ll show you.”

With that,

Xin Zaozao quickly gave it another check before printing it out.

She printed two copies, fastened them together, and handed one to Yin Qin.

Yin Qin took it, baffled, “Pregnancy Rules…you’re pregnant!”

The last four words definitely caught him off guard.

Women are really too cruel, too cruel.

He suspected that if he told Mu Cidian now that Xin Zaozao was having a child with another man, Xin Zaozao would probably cough blood and drop dead.

Before Xin Zaozao could answer,

Yin Qin loudly asked, “Who’s the father? It’s not Ji Baili, is it?!”

Yin Qin let his imagination run wild.

Xin Zaozao didn’t want to explain any further.

Yan Zihuan had already opened the door, indicating that she had to leave.

She said, “Get familiar with it, it’ll come in handy eventually.”

Yin Qin frowned.

What was there for him to get familiar with?

Xin Zaozao stood up, “I’m sorry Mr. Yin, but I have to leave now. I’ll come to the Milky Way tomorrow to discuss the sponsorship contract with you.”

“Xin Zaozao, aren’t you going to see Mu Cidian? He almost died, the media is not exaggerating at all!” Yin Qin watched her retreating figure, and couldn’t help but blurt it out.

Admit it.

He desperately wanted to drag Xin Zaozao to see Mu Cidian.

He felt that man was too pitiful.

Xin Zaozao said, “We’ll meet in court.”

With that, she left with her secretary.

Yin Qin watched Xin Zaozao’s retreating figure.

This woman was really heartless!

Damn.

Yin Qin was somewhat displeased. He looked down at the “Pregnancy Rules” in his hand and felt even more irritable.

What the hell was this stuff?

He tossed the A4 pages directly into the trash bin and left Xin Zaozao’s office as well.

He drove aimlessly on the streets.

It was indeed baffling.

Song Zhizhi actually invited him over for dinner at her place tonight.

Something smelled fishy.

Song Zhizhi definitely had a scheme. She was usually as wary of him as she was of a wolf, fearing he would steal Ji Baijian from her.

Such unusual kindness tonight was certainly no good intention.

Despite anticipating no good end tonight, he succumbed to his curiosity and went anyway.

He planned to catch her off guard.

With this thought, his eyes suddenly froze.

He seemed to have seen Li Wenjun.

In the distance, he saw him getting into a woman’s car.

Was he mistaken?

At that moment, he decided to follow.

After about ten minutes, the car stopped at a high-end café.

Yin Qin watched as Li Wenjun and a middle-aged woman, probably in her 40s, got out of the car.

He hesitated for a moment, then decided to follow.

From afar, he saw the two of them sitting in a somewhat secluded corner of the cafe.

Yin Qin also found a seat where he wouldn’t be noticed easily.

It’s not that he has a dark heart and wants to smear Li Wenjun’s reputation, he just wants to confirm the truth. If he is being paranoid, he won’t make things up!

He watched Li Wenjun and the woman each ordering a coffee.

Yin Qin ordered one too.

Then he kept his eyes on their table.

The two seemed to be having a great time. He didn’t know what Li Wenjun had said, but the woman even laughed aloud, making no effort to hide it in the quiet café.

Yin Qin felt uneasy. Even though there were no inappropriate actions visible, a man, a man who’s almost married and already has a girlfriend, was flirting with an old woman. How could he? Didn’t Li Wenjun feel guilty towards Ji Baixin?!

It was infuriating.

At that moment, he had no suspicions about Li Wenjun, probably because it was work-related, after all, Li Wenjun was a womenswear designer.

Yin Qin stood up, ready to leave.

Just as he was about to leave, he froze.

He saw the woman in front of him suddenly reach out and grab Li Wenjun’s hand.

Clearly…this wasn’t just mere courtesy!
