Traducteur: Éditeur de traduction EndlessFantasy: Traduction de fantaisie sans fin
Lin Miaoxue lay on the bed and thought about today’s events. She did not feel sleepy at all. She looked at her phone next to her pillow before she finally picked it up. She saw a few messages from Liu Xinyao.

Liu Xinyao: Comment était-ce? Did you succeed in having a beautiful date today?

Liu Xinyao: Don’t tell me you guys are going to… today?

Liu Xinyao: Où êtes-vous? Why aren’t you replying to my messages? Are you really doing that?

Liu Xinyao: Non! Impossible! That’s not the Little Xue I know!

!!

Liu Xinyao: Hurry up and reply to my messages. I don’t even dare to call you right now!

…

In another district in Shanghai, Liu Xinyao was holding her phone. She was happy thinking that Lin Miaoxue might have succeeded, but she was also worried. Après tout, her best friend was really innocent.

‘Lin Miaoxue has been single for so many years, she wouldn’t be fooled into giving herself up, droite?

Liu Xinyao grew even more worried. pourtant, thinking that Lin Miaoxue might be busy at the moment, she did not dare to call. If she ruined Lin Miaoxue’s plan, Lin Miaoxue would not let her go.

pourtant, that kind of thing was very normal between couples nowadays.

Liu Xinyao felt really conflicted. Every few minutes, she would look at her phone.

En ce moment, her phone suddenly buzzed.

Liu Xinyao hurriedly picked up her phone.

Lin Miaoxue: What nonsense are you thinking? I’m lying alone in my own bed. (angry emoji)

Liu Xinyao laughed upon reading the message. Elle a marmonné, “I knew she wouldn’t give herself up so easily.”

Liu Xinyao: So how was your date? Est-ce que ça s'est bien passé? Did the seduction plan work? Did he fall head over heels in love with you until he can’t find his way home? haha!

…

When Lin Miaoxue saw how quickly Liu Xinyao had replied, she sat up on her bed and leaned against the headboard.

She knew Liu Xinyao had been thinking about this matter the entire day. Both of them were single, and if one of them fell in love, the other would definitely be filled with curiosity to the point of exploding.

If Liu Xinyao were in love, she would definitely ask so many questions as well. pourtant, when she thought about today’s date, she really felt miserable.

Avant qu'elle ne puisse répondre, son téléphone a sonné; Liu Xinyao was calling her.

"Bonjour. Why are you calling so late at night?” Lin Miaoxiao, who was feeling dejected, said in a bitter voice.

Liu Xinyao laughed. "Je suis juste curieux! A single dog like me can’t help but want to know more about your love! Dépêche-toi! Dites-moi, did your plan work? Did you use the techniques?"

Lin Miaoxue sighed. “I failed. He didn’t seem to notice it at all.”

"Qu'est-il arrivé?! Dites-moi!"

Lin Miaoxue thought about it for a moment before she honestly recounted everything.

After listening to Lin Miaoxue, Liu Xinyao shook her head repeatedly and said, “You’re too… disappointing, Petite Xue!"

Lin Miaoxue could only sigh. She was really too clumsy. She had never learned such things before and embarrassed herself during her first try.

« Si c'était moi, I would make sure he wouldn’t be able to look away! You still have to practice more. Ne t'inquiète pas. A man’s mind is relatively simple!” Liu Xinyao said to comfort Lin Miaoxue.

En entendant cela, Lin Miaoxue retorted, "Absurdité! You’re still single! Aren’t you the same as me? Si tu es si capable, you won’t be single now!"

“I…” Liu Xinyao was rendered speechless by Lin Miaoxue’s retort. When she found an excuse for herself, she said confidently, "Bien, my theoretical knowledge is very good. It’s just that I haven’t found someone to practice it on!"

Lin Miaoxue laughed upon hearing Liu Xinyao’s words.

“Don’t laugh at me! You’ve found someone, but I haven’t. Tu dois m'aider. You can’t leave me alone. I don’t want to be single anymore!"

“I’m still single as well. I don’t know what he’s thinking… I invited him to my house for a drink, but he rejected me. I’m really frustrated,” Lin Miaoxue said with a sigh. She felt disappointed once again.

“He rejected you after you invited him to your house? He must be the typical obtuse straight man! Hmm, but from what you said before, that doesn’t seem to be the case,” Liu Xinyao said, slightly puzzled. She stroked her chin and began to think.

“I really don’t know what he’s thinking. I’m just going with the flow,” Lin Miaoxue said as she shook her head.

"Fais-moi confiance. He definitely likes you. Autrement, he wouldn’t have eaten with you today. Après y avoir pensé, I think he’s just a gentleman, and he’s just trying to take things slow. de plus, he’s caring toward his family. This means he’s a good man. He’s worthy of you entrusting your life to. pourtant, I didn’t expect him to hide himself so well. He’s so rich but so low-key. He’s not pretentious at all. C'est vraiment rare. You have to cherish him,” Liu Xinyao said, expressing her sincere thoughts and judgment of Jiang Feng. Lin Miaoxie was her best friend so she definitely would not harm her best friend. En tant que spectateur, she was more objective and could see more clearly. She could see whether Jiang Feng was good or not.

After listening to Liu Xinyao, Lin Miaoxue’s mind was filled with Jiang Feng’s voice and smile. She could not help but feel warm and sweet in her heart.

The man she liked was definitely not bad. Jiang Feng’s situation over the past few years was obvious to everyone. He had an excellent character and was talented. Lin Miaoxue believed he could not have pretended to be something he was not for a few years. She trusted him from the bottom of her heart.

finalement, Lin Miaoxue said, "Bien, je comprend. De toute façon, I’m going to sleep now.”

"Bien. Go to sleep early. Je raccroche."

Après avoir terminé l'appel, Lin Miaoxue lay on the bed again. She was still thinking about Jiang Feng. What Liu Xinyao said earlier had touched her heart. Progressivement, she began to imagine a beautiful future with him, buoyed by the sweet emotions in her heart. A sweet smile unknowingly formed on her face.

Hélas, this sweet feeling did not last long. Bientôt, she began to worry again. Now that Jiang Feng became the owner of Cinda Financial, he would have more responsibilities.

Luo Yuchang, the boss of her company, must have found out about what happened by now. He had been waiting for a few months to buy Cinda, but now the plan had gone awry. He definitely would not give up.

Lin Miaoxue knew Luo Yuchang would use whatever means to achieve his goal. The meeting today allowed her to see his character clearly. There was no doubt he would target Jiang Feng after finding out that Jiang Feng ruined his carefully laid trap.

Jiang Feng was out in the open, unaware of all this. pendant ce temps, Luo Yuchang was hidden in the dark. If Luo Yuchang employed despicable tricks and shot Jiang Feng from the back, it would definitely be disadvantageous to Jiang Feng.

It was unfortunate that she was now an employee of Kerry Financial Company. She could not reveal trade secrets and insider information. She would be incarcerated if she was found doing such a thing. She was very anxious and troubled, not knowing how to help Jiang Feng. She really did want to see Luo Yuchang targeting Jiang Feng. If Luo Yuchang made a move, Jiang Feng would definitely be hurt. pourtant, if she told Jiang Feng about what she knew, if Luo Yuchang found out, her entire life would be ruined. She could imagine being in jail.

Lin Miaoxu continued to toss and turn on her bed. Son cœur était en ébullition.

Après avoir longuement réfléchi, she finally came up with a plan. It was not very good, but it was the best plan she could come up with.

Luo Yuchang’s actions were undoubtedly unethical. He was unscrupulous toward small companies, harming others for his own benefit. If he harmed Jiang Feng, she could not sit idly by no matter what. She was determined to protect Jiang Feng. Even if she might end up hurt, she was willing.

She was going to speak to Luo Yuchang when she went to work tomorrow. Avec un peu de chance, he would let Cinda Financial go. She could not help other companies, but she had to help Jiang Feng. If Luo Yuchang refused to let go, au pire, she would quit her job at Kerry Financial Company. For Jiang Feng’s sake, she was willing to give her job up.

À la fin, Lin Miaoxue only fell asleep late at night with a heavy heart when exhaustion finally overwhelmed her.

…

Le lendemain matin.

Lin Miaoxue was woken up by the alarm clock. She opened her eyes blearily. She was both physically and mentally tired, and she had slept so late. When she got up and looked into the mirror, she saw prominent dark circles around her eyes that she had not seen for a long time.

Après s'être lavé, she used concealer to cover up her dark circles before leaving for the company. She did not want others to see her in such a terrible state.

Since she planned to speak to Luo Yuchang, she arrived at the company half an hour earlier.

Luo Yuchang had yet to arrive, but there were already people in the company. Most of them were busy with work that they did not complete yesterday. pourtant, when some of them saw Lin Miaoxue, they temporarily abandoned their work and surrounded her with gossipy expressions on their faces.

“Team Leader, that luxury car yesterday looks really good! It looks as good as its owner!"

"C'est exact. Team Leader, that handsome man is your boyfriend, droite?"

“He has to be! Only such a handsome man is worthy of our team leader!"

Lin Miaoxue did not pay attention to them and continued walking, but they chased after her.

“Team Leader, ne pars pas. Just tell us so we’ll stop guessing!"

"C'est exact. Such a handsome man… If it were me, I’d definitely show off to everyone!"

“The car was a limited edition Pagani! He must be very rich! Je t'envie tellement, Team Leader!"

“There aren’t that many rich and handsome second generation. Team Leader, you’re really amazing to have found one!"

“Only someone as promising as our team leader is worthy of such a man! I’m so envious.”

The few of them kept following Lin Miaoxue and chattering at the side. It seemed like they had forgotten about their questions and were only talking about Jiang Feng. pourtant, ce n'était pas surprenant. Ever since their days in the university, he had always had an extraordinary bearing. Coupled with his good looks, it was normal for him to attract everyone’s attention.

Lin Miaoxue was rather happy when she heard them praising Jiang Feng. This meant that her judgment was not wrong. Despite her good mood, she still did not say anything. She only smiled at them and went to her desk.

When they saw her attitude, they knew they would not be able to get anything out of her so they could only leave.

Peu après, Luo Yuchang arrived at the company. He swept his gaze around before he walked into his office.

When Lin Miaoxue saw Luo Yuchang, she rose to her feet immediately and walked to his office. Although her position as team leader was not high, her family background was still quite good. Even if she spoke to him, the others would not think much of it. Everyone knew that background and connections were important, especially in their industry.

…

As soon as Lin Miaoxue entered the boss’ office, quite a few employees flocked to the few people who had spoken to Lin Miaoxue earlier.

"Ce qui se passe? Is our company’s number one beauty really in love?"

"Dites-nous. Everyone wants to know.”

The few people who spoke to Lin Miaoxue earlier were a little dissatisfied. They had taken the initiative to speak to her, but she had just ignored them; this was clearly disrespecting them. Peut-être, she felt superior to them so she looked down on them. They did not show their displeasure to her earlier, mais maintenant, they no longer had to pretend. D'où, they shook their heads and began to speak one after another.

"Je ne sais pas. She didn’t say anything.”

“Lin Miaoxue is very powerful. C'est inutile. We asked, but she didn’t reply at all.”

"C'est exact. I don’t know why she’s like that. Isn’t this kind of joyous matter worth celebrating? Why is she so afraid of people knowing?"

Someone chimed in, “The society is very open-minded now. People are free to fall in love. Peut-être, there’s something that’s hard for her to say?"

"C'est exact. Il y a quelques jours, I heard someone say that a female employee from the company downstairs became the boss’ mistress! I wonder if that’s what’s going on with Team Leader Lin?" quelqu'un a dit, distorting the information.

Someone assisted this person and chimed in, "Oui! If your relationship is upright, why can’t you let people know about it? Comme c'est étrange!"

They continued to chat. Some of them were blunt with their words, and some of them hid knives in their words.

Those sitting at the side did not say anything and only nodded.

There were also a few who only smiled before returning to their desks.

Dans tous les cas, all of them knew how easily word would spread. It did not matter if it was true or not. Même si c'était faux, it would somehow become true to some people.

…

After knocking on the door, Lin Miaoxue walked into Luo Yuchang’s office.

Luo Yuchang, qui venait d'arriver, était de mauvaise humeur. The news he received late last night truly angered him.

Initialement, he thought Zhang Qidong borrowed some money and temporarily solved the problem. D'où, he was not very concerned. Après tout, he still had ways to deal with Zhang Qidong.

pourtant, after his people investigated further, they found out that Zhang Qidong had sold the company to someone. Juste hier, when the company was on the verge of bankruptcy, someone bought the entire company. Non seulement que, but that person also continued to invest, making a huge profit in just a day.

This naturally made Luo Yuchang extremely unhappy. He spent half a year investigating and laying the trap. He schemed and invested a lot of money, waiting to reap the benefit. Qui savait ça à la fin, someone else would reap the benefit?

It was as though he had cooked a good piece of meat, mais à la fin, it was eaten by another person.

All his efforts and calculations had gone to waste! They were all in vain!

Luo Yuchang really felt like he was going to explode from anger and unhappiness. néanmoins, he saw Lin Miaoxue, he hid his emotions and maintained the attitude of a boss. His expression did not reveal the slightest abnormality as he asked calmly, “Little Lin, quel est le problème?"

Luo Yuchang only glanced at Lin Miaoxue. His hands were typing on the keyboard.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with Luo Yuchang’s expression, Lin Miaoxue said bluntly, “President Luo, I know that our company has recently set its eyes on a company. Je vais être honnête avec toi. The owner of that company is my boyfriend. I only hope that you’ll let Cinda Financial go this time. Avec ta capacité, it’s not difficult for you to find another company to acquire.”

Although Lin Miaoxue was quite nervous, she spoke calmly in one breath in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. When she saw Luo Yuchang’s darkening expression, she knew there was no going back once she had said those words. pourtant, she did not hesitate. She only hoped that she could prevent Jiang Feng from getting hurt.

Sans surprise, Lin Miaoxue’s words stirred up a storm.

Luo Yuchang stopped typing and glared at Lin Miaoxue as he asked coldly, "Qu'est-ce que vous avez dit? The owner of Cinda Financial is your boyfriend?"

Lin Miaoxue’s heart trembled a little when she saw the expression on Luo Yuchang’s face. pourtant, she still clenched her hands and said with a nod, "Oui, President Luo. Can you please let go of Cinda Financial and find another company?"

Luo Yuchang exploded with anger upon hearing these words. He rose to his feet and glared at Lin Miaoxue. Si les regards pouvaient tuer, she would have already died. He did not expect his employee would be related to this matter. He actually had someone from the enemy’s camp in his company. Il a rugi, “You traitor! The company groomed you and nurtured you, mais il s'avère que, you’re from the enemy’s camp! I hired you and provided you with so many resources, et encore, your heart lies with another company! Do you know how much our company lost this time? Do you know how much I lost?! Do you know how long I’ve had my eyes on Cinda? It’s because of you! It’s all because of you that my efforts went to waste! Motherf * cker, you still have the guts to stand in front of me and speak?! Qui diable pensez-vous que vous êtes?!"

Lin Miaoxue’s heart trembled even more when she saw the roaring and cursing Luo Yuchang. She was frozen. She did not expect him to explode in this manner.

Luo Yuchang, qui brûlait de colère, looked at Lin Miaoxue and felt the flames of fury soaring even higher. À ce moment là, she became the target to vent his anger. Since he could not vent his anger on the new owner of Cinda financial, he was going to vent it on Lin Miaoxu, who claimed to be the other person’s girlfriend. Il a beuglé, “I don’t care who he is! So what if he’s your boyfriend?! Dans mes yeux, only money matters! I have plenty of ways to snatch back that sesame-sized company! You’re with that coward from Cinda; is he worthy of your face? Were you only looking for someone handsome? Did you not care if he’s trash?! His company’s assets can’t even compare to the assets from one of my departments. How dare he ruin my plan?! Tout ce que j'ai c'est de l'argent! Laisse moi te dire. Don’t even think about snatching away something I’ve set my eyes on! If someone dares to do so, then they should just wait to die! Bast*rd!"

As Luo Yuchang spoke, he walked out from behind his desk and moved to stand in front of Lin Miaoxue. His eyes were frosty and his expression was furious as he said fiercely, "Et toi, do you think I’d care about what you say? You’re nothing in my eyes! I’m definitely going to swallow up Cinda! Just wait for your boyfriend to die! No one can save him!"

À ce moment là, Lin Miaoxue’s body began to tremble as anger began to surge in her heart. Depuis qu'elle est jeune, no one had ever scolded her like this. It was fine if Luo Yuchang had only refused her, but he scolded her in such a manner. He insisted on acquiring Cinda Financial and even told her to wait for her boyfriend to die!

Lin Miaoxue’s big eyes were burning with anger as she looked at Luo Yuchang. She completely understood what kind of person he was now.

After yesterday’s meeting and her chat with Yang Yiling, Lin Miaoxue had already felt that Luo Yuchang’s actions were completely incompatible with her principles. Today’s matter only further cemented that thought. The person before her was someone who liked employing dirty tricks.

Lin Miaoxue did not want to stay any longer. dit-elle avec colère, “You did so many bad deeds. You’ll get your retribution sooner or later! J'arrête! You look down on me? I look down on you too, you wicked person!"

Après avoir dit ça, Lin Miaoxue turned around and stormed out of Luo Yuchang’s office. She slammed the door loudly behind her when she left. With a heart filled with anger, she went to her desk and began to pack.

pourtant, Lin Miaoxue was unaware that the matter was not over.
