Chapter 132: Malevolence
Chapter 132: Malevolence
Lauren tried her best to find out the ward where Nangong Lixin was located, and with a lot of brain
cells, she shook off the bodyguard who had been following her and sneaked to the ward where
Nangong Lixin was located by herself.
"I want to see Nangong Lixin."
Even in the face of a row of men dressed in black and wearing sunglasses, Lauren's face, there was no
fear.
"Miss, our president is resting inside, and this is a VIP ward, please leave immediately, or we really are
not polite."
One of the men walked up to Lauren, although his face was expressionless and his whole body exuded
an icy chill that did not let people get close, but the words that came out were still polite.
Because he knew that the woman who could pass through the layers and come here would definitely
not be a simple woman.
And there are only a few women who call the president by his name.
"Would you please tell him that Lauren wants to see him, and that he must see him today."
"Lauren?" Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Although the man's face, with sunglasses that can hide most of his face, but Lauren is still sensitive to
notice, after hearing his name, the man's face, there is a flash of surprise.
"Miss. Li, please."
The man made a gesture of invitation so that Lauren could walk into Nangong Lixin's hospital room.
"How are you doing? Better?"
Seeing Nangong Lixin's bandaged and knotted arm, Lauren blamed herself even more, if it wasn't for
her own reasons, he wouldn't have been so badly injured.
Seeing Lauren, Nangong Lixin did not have any surprise, he had long expected that Lauren would
definitely appear in front of him, it was only a matter of time.
"I'm fine, if the bodyguards weren't so nervous, I would have been able to get out of the hospital and go
back to the office, what about you? How did you find this place?"
Lauren sat beside Nangong Lixin and put the prepared gift, in front of him, with a sweet smile on her
face.
"It took me some effort to find your ward, but it doesn't matter, seeing that you're in good spirits now,
the nerves I've been tensing up are finally relaxed. Nangong Lixin, I still lack a formal apology from you,
if it wasn't for trying to save me, you wouldn't have been injured."
Lauren's face, full of apologies.
"Lauren, we are friends, why do we need to be so out of touch? Besides, I've already found out that
those people came entirely for me, and it's only my apology to you that you should be frightened, and
for you to say that now, in turn, makes me a little groundless."
After saying this, both of them laughed out loud at the same time, dissolving all the apologies.
"Excuse me, I have to go first, if Matthew knows that I am not in the mansion now, he will definitely look
for me everywhere, and then a lot of trouble will arise again. You have a good rest, I will come here to
see you again sometime."
Raising her hand to glance at the time on her wrist, Lauren hurriedly grabbed her bag and headed for
the door.
"Wait a minute."
Holding his injured arm, Nangong Lixin came to Lauren's face and put a slip of paper with a phone
number on it, in Lauren's hand.
"This is my personal cell phone, if you need my help with something, be sure to call me and I will be
there for you immediately, no matter what happens."
The sincerity on Nangong Lixin's face made Lauren hurry to keep the phone number on the note firmly
in her mind, then tear off the note, make an OK gesture to Nangong Lixin, and turn around to leave.
Despite her own timing, when she returned to the mansion, she still saw Matthew sitting on the couch
with a grim face.
"Where have you been? Why did you ditch the bodyguard?"
The hostile tone of voice made Lauren a little stunned, but she regained her composure. Sitting calmly
across from Matthew.
"I was just out shopping. You know, the old me didn't like to have bodyguards behind me, so I would be
very stressed, so I had to get rid of them in order to be free to go shopping, and these are all my spoils
of the day. Do you want to go to your room and try it on, I bought some shirts for you."
Lauren raises the clothes she bought at the mall on her way back.
"Remember, wherever you go next time, make sure you let me know, or I'll worry."
After leaving an intriguing comment, Matthew turned and left the hall, grabbed his car keys and headed
outside.
Lauren breathed a long sigh of relief, she really couldn't imagine that she had gotten through so easily
and without any suspicion on Matthew's part.
Lauren returned to her room and after a brief wash, was about to get some rest when there was a
knock on the door.
"Wang Ma, is something wrong?"
Wang's mother looked at Lauren with a difficult and uneasy face.
"Miss, I ......"
The way Wang's mother wanted to say something made Lauren wonder even more.
"Wang Ma, what's going on? Is it something to do with me?"
Wang's mother nodded, took out the newspaper she was holding and placed it in Lauren's hand.
"Miss. Li, this is the newspaper I just fetched, is that you, the woman on it? Once the young master
sees it, he will definitely be moved to anger."
Lauren hurriedly opened the newspaper, and when she saw the contents of the paper, her face did not
look any different.
"Wang Ma, you are too much, although the woman on this looks like me, but I can tell you for sure that
it is not me, you have helped me to take a bath, you should know that on my back, there is a red
hemorrhoid the size of a grain of rice, but this woman's back is not, so you can rest assured."
The worry on Wang's mother's face really touched Lauren very much, since she left home, she had
never been cared for by anyone, including her own mother.
"That's a relief to me. Even if the young master sees it, he won't mistake it for Miss. You rest first, I'll
prepare dinner."
Lauren nodded and watched Wang's mother leave.
Although sure that the woman in the newspaper is not herself, but Lauren feels. There is an invisible
force that is manipulating all of this, and what was published in the newspaper today is just the
beginning of the game.
Sure enough, the next day when Lauren got up, she heard Wang's mother tell her that there were a lot
of reporters gathered outside.
On Lauren's face, an expression of disgust appeared, she hated dealing with reporters. She was
thankful that at Matthew's request, she was back to her old self, so much so that these reporters would
not guess that the self standing in front of them now was Joshua's wife.
"Let them be, call Matthew and tell him what's going on here and let him handle these darn reporters
himself."
Lauren walked straight to the restaurant. Although the meal in front of him was very rich, but he lost all
his appetite by these reporters.
After just a few simple bites, Lauren put down her knife and fork. Through the monitor screen, she
could see more and more reporters coming in the direction of the mansion.
"Wang Ma, did you call Matthew?"
"Called, the young master is now on his way back, but it may take a while because of the traffic jam."
Lauren nodded her head. Expressionlessly looking at the reporters outside, suddenly a figure behind
the reporter. Let her face, showing a touch of playful expression.
"She's actually here, so it looks like these reporters can set their guns."
Wang's mother also saw Ling Xue'er inside the monitor. However, she was not as optimistic as Lauren
showed. For Ling Xue'er, she had always thought of her as an extremely scheming woman.
"Miss, are you sure this woman can change things in front of you? It might cause more trouble."
Lauren broke into a light smile.
"She better make a bigger story so that I can have enough freedom not to be followed by these man-
eating reporters, Wang Ma, can you ask the security to switch the picture more clearly? I want to hear
their voices."
Wang's mother nodded and hurriedly called over the security guard beside her to switch the screen to
the one Lauren wanted.
Ling Xue'er's clear voice immediately reached Lauren's ears through the monitor.
"What are you doing here?"
For Yin's family mansion there are these reporters waiting, Ling Xue'er is also a look of dismay, but
soon, her face regained its original smile.
"Miss Ling, you have always claimed to the public that CEO Yin is your boyfriend, and all that is
missing between the two of you is a marriage certificate, but according to the information we got, it
seems that there is another woman inside the mansion."
"Yes, and according to reliable information, that woman is Secretary Li who used to be by CEO Yin's
side for three years. May I ask if this thing is true?"
"Miss Ling, can you tell us what is the relationship between this Secretary Li, who is now living in the
mansion, and CEO Yin? Will her reappearance change the feelings between you and CEO Yin ah?"
The reporters came with one sharp question after another, and even Ling Xue'er, who is used to seeing
big scenes, was a bit stunned by the sharp questions asked in front of her, and has been thinking about
how she is going to answer these questions in order to get these reporters to give herself a perfect
report on this matter.
"Miss Ling, you have not been answering our questions, is it because your heart has determined that
this woman will to your CEO Yin's feelings, and maybe will take your place as CEO Yin's girlfriend ah?"
"Yes, there were rumors before that this woman was CEO Yin's secretary mistress, and this time, when
she returns again, will she sit on the throne of Yin's Group's president's wife?"
Never heard Ling Xue'er's answer, these reporters began to imagine out of thin air.
Lauren, who was sitting behind the monitor, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
These reporters are really talented and can actually imagine things so perfectly that she is developing
like a fairy tale.
Seeing that things were somewhat out of control, Ling Xue'er hurriedly waved her hand at these
reporters.
"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me, please."
In order to reach the inside information they want to get, these reporters hurried Bing column breathing,
the atmosphere dare not come out, afraid to interrupt Ling Xueer, lost the inside information for
tomorrow's headlines.
"For this woman Lauren, I can only say that she is a woman rich in scheming, and I think you have
heard that in the past, Miss Leo Zhou once announced to the public that Lauren is just the illegitimate
daughter of Matthew's stepmother, such a woman with a complicated background will not become
Matthew's woman, and the Matthew's relationship with each other, not a prostitute can destroy it."
These words of Ling Xue'er are very vicious, not only to protect the feelings between herself and
Matthew, but also in front of these reporters, ridiculing Lauren as a woman rich in heart and strong
stubborn man.
"Miss Ling, can you give us some more information about Miss. Li, we heard that Miss. Li had
disappeared for a period of time, and during this period of time, no one knew where she went, do you
know where she went and which man she was with during this period of time?"
A smug smile appeared on Ling Xue'er's face.
"During the time she was missing, she had been bewitching my cousin with her innocent appearance,
until some time ago, my cousin realized that this woman did not love him at all, but approached him for
money, for his property, so my cousin immediately broke off contact with her, and without my cousin's
monetary support, this woman only played Matthew's stepsister's relationship and came back here."
These insider information, so that the reporter's face, each smile, they can imagine, when these things
are published in the media, tomorrow will have a big impact, maybe the editor-in-chief will give himself
a big red bag.
"Well, it's getting late, please go back to rest, and if there is anything later, Matthew and I will hold a
press conference, and we will need everyone's good words then."
The reporters were satisfied to leave after getting the information they wanted, although they did not
see Lauren in person.
When Matthew rushed back to the mansion, all he saw was Ling Xue'er with a smile on her face.
