Chapter 75: Scandal
Qin Yu said unwillingly, “Chen, don’t you understand Second Aunt’s suggestion? We’re doing this to save Bai Ting’s reputation. Why don’t you make a little sacrifice?”
Ning Chen sneered, “And why should I?”
Qin Yu immediately shut her mouth.
Ning Chen said coldly, “What has Bai Ting’s damaged reputation got to do with me? Why should I help her? Am I obligated to do so? I’m a married man. Why should I put my reputation on the line for her? And you’re all here thinking of removing Xiao Yu for Bai Ting. Do you think I’m dead? Xiao Yu can only be widowed, not divorced! I’m here to support her! Nobody can have any funny ideas when she has me!”
I’m here to support her!
Qin Yu’s eyes shone. Ning Chen was so attractive when he said those words. Qin Yu was thrilled.
What a pro, shoving it up the ladies’ face with one outburst.
Bai Rui could not hide her embarrassment, but she had no choice and pleaded, “Ning Chen, you grew up with her. Tingting is really at her wit’s end this time.”
Ning Chen said coldly, “Why so? Second Aunt, you don’t have to waste your time. I have done my best. The trending searches you suppressed, I can spend the money and make them appear again. Second Aunt, you don’t doubt it, right?”
Bai Rui was speechless.
Ning Jing stammered, “Ning Chen, we are relatives. Why do you have to be so heartless? Bai Ting likes you. You should know how to appreciate a woman, right?”
Ning Chen sneered, “So you think just because I am a man, I should take care of a woman, no matter the situation?”
Ning Jing straightened her back, “Of course, Bai Ting is a great girl!”
Qin Yu really wanted to beat up Ning Jing’s hideous face.
Ning Chen called Uncle Wen over, “Uncle Wen, I heard that Big Brother-in-law has a woman at Qinghe Bay. A rather nice lady, although she comes from a tough background. Their child is already two years old. Bring them over to Big Sister’s. Tell Big Brother-in-law that it is her intentions. She doesn’t care if her man is with another woman. Tell him to stop hiding and return home.”
Ning Jing’s face was ashen, but Ning Chen was blind and could not see her expression.
“Ning Chen, are you… are you telling the truth?” She asked in a trembling voice.
Ning Chen did not answer. “Big Sister, that woman is pregnant with their second child. Uncle Wen, how many months has it been?”
“Five months, Young Master” Wen Sheng replied respectfully.
Ning Chen nodded. “Big Sister, you are such a kind-hearted person. I believe that you will definitely treat that woman well. It is not easy for Big Brother-in-law to work hard in our Ning family’s company while raising a family outside at the same time. Now that you are so understanding, I think that Big Brother-in-law can finally breathe a sigh of relief. After all, you can take care of the child. He doesn’t have to worry anymore. I think he’ll be able to contribute more at work.”
“Uncle Wen, from tomorrow onwards, get the department to arrange more business trips for Big Brother-in-law. It’s good to travel around, keeps his mind healthy. In the past, they didn’t do that because Big Sister was afraid Big Brother-in-law would fool around much. It doesn’t matter anymore now that she is so open-minded. It’ll help Big Brother-in-law in achieving his goals at work. It’s easy for him to slack off after working in the same position for a long time. Great, we’ve solved a problem, all thanks to Big Sister!”
Uncle Wen nodded and left.
Ning Jing collapsed on the ground like a frozen eggplant in winter. She seemed to forget how to cry and stared blankly into the open.
Ning Chen called out to Ah Yu again. “Ah Yu, call the chauffeur in and send Big Sister home safely! If there aren’t enough people at her house, you can also help make arrangements.”
Ah Yu nodded and got busy.
Bai Rui quickly reached out to support Ning Jing. “Ning Jing, get up first. Don’t worry, you –”
Ning Jing pushed Bai Rui away and stood up by herself. Her gaze was cold as she glared at Bai Rui. “You knew this, right?”
Bai Rui hesitated for a moment and avoided Ning Jing’s gaze. She reached out to hold Ning Jing.
Ning Jing shook off her hand. “You all knew! And you looked at me like I’m a fool! Is this how you treat me? Are you all laughing at me behind my back for being stupid?”
Ning Jing’s expression turned hideous as she looked at Bai Rui. “I treated you sincerely with all my heart, and this is how you return the favor? I helped this shameless slut asking for shelter while my own husband has one himself. Is this God’s retribution for me or is this a trap you devised?”
