Keep Distance, Mr. CEO!
Chapter 316 Her Struggle

Chapter 316: Chapter 316 Her Struggle

She widened her eyes at the man standing beside her, her expression, truly as shocked as could be.

Feeling unable to withstand such a gaze from her, Lin Yebai became annoyed and, in a burst of anger, he turned his head to fiercely glare at the man who had exposed him, "Ou Mucen, what exactly do you want to do?"

What to do?

Seeing his reaction, Ou Mucen coldly laughed, "I don’t want to do anything. I only want everyone to rest assured. Our club president, in fact, isn’t that close to Mr. Lin. That Jade Pendant wasn’t a generous gift from him to Mr. Lin, but rather a play-act put on in conspiracy with Mr. Lin to win over a woman’s heart. President, am I right in saying so?"

"I——"

As the last word came out, the banquet hall exploded into chaos, and the club president’s face turned an extreme shade of red.

Acting?

Was he saying that the Jade Pendant was just part of an act the president was in on? So, that means the Jade Pendant was actually the property of this judge?

In an instant, the banquet hall erupted with jeers and roars like a pot boiling over!

Lin Yebai’s entire body trembled!

Indeed, the Jade Pendant was his, and he had orchestrated everything that evening.

His purpose was to strike back at this man, who had been persistently hovering around Ye Ning, by using such a method to tell him that he was the one most qualified to possess that woman.

And their relationship was already far from ordinary!

But unexpectedly, with just one link of a chain, he saw through it all. This man was truly detestable!

The usually gentle and composed Lin Yebai had a sharp murderous intent flaring in his eyes, and his fingers, holding the brocade box, were so tense that veins bulged, "Yes, the Jade Pendant is mine. So what?"

"..."

A wave of uproar burst forth!

My God! Did Mr. Lin actually admit it?

Ye Ning looked at him, trembling slightly upon hearing his words, "Brother Lin, why? Why would you do such a thing?"

Why?

Lin Yebai’s complexion paled for a moment, finally remembering her presence, then a flash of panic crossed his face before he urgently grabbed her, "Aning, listen to my explanation, things aren’t as you think."

"Indeed, they are not as such. Mr. Lin, I think you need to clarify to everyone present here exactly who Miss An is to you and what your relationship with her is," Ou Mucen said emotionlessly, not missing the chance to further press the issue.

"..."

Before Ye Ning could even respond to the question, the man opposite, who had already succeeded but didn’t want to let go, emotionlessly threw out another sentence.

As the words fell, the hall once again plunged into a storm of public opinion.

Indeed, even a fool could hear the implication of his words: the relationship between him and Lin Yebai was not that of husband and wife; she was not Mrs. Lin.

As expected, those who crossed Ou Mucen were not faced with the worst, only with something more severe.

Ye Ning looked blankly at the man in front of her, his face pale with anger, his body quivering, who now had no means of retaliation, and suddenly, her heart began to feel pity.

Yes, when she had just learned that everything was of his own contrivance, she was extremely angry and her heart was also very upset and disgusted.

It was as if she couldn’t wait to leave him, leave this place, and return to her own home.

But now, seeing him like this, seeing him so disgracefully suppressed by that man in front of everyone, devastated, she suddenly couldn’t bear it!
