Of course, besides fear and nervousness, a trace of resentment also grew in her heart! If not for the latter, how could her man have been taken away? The woman in front of her destroyed her happiness and is the root of all evil.

Facing such an identity, if there was no hatred in her heart, that would absolutely be false; she couldn't just calmly act as if nothing happened.

After calming her inner emotions, Lu Miaochan took a deep breath and also raised a hand, with complicated feelings shook hands with Lin Tong, her red lips slightly parted: "Hello, Miss Lin, I'm Lu Miaochan, Ye Xuan's... I'm his friend."

When she said the last sentence, her tone obviously paused for a moment, carrying a trace of dryness and anxiety.

Upon seeing this, Lin Tong's lips curved slightly, her tone carrying a hint of ease: "If you don't mind, you can call me Xiaotong, or Sister Tong."

"Then... I'll call you Xiao... Sister Tong." Lu Miaochan bit her lip, softly saying.

At this moment, Liu Ying chimed in with a cheeky smile: "President Lin, don't bully our Miaochan just because you're Ye Xuan's wife! Look how scared you've made her?"

She was clearly trying to protect Lu Miaochan.

Glancing at Liu Ying, Lin Tong smiled faintly and ignored her, continuing to gaze at the extremely nervous Lu Miaochan, she warmly said: "Miss Lu, I'd like to talk to you alone, is that okay?"

"Ah? You want to talk to me about... what?" Lu Miaochan's speech was stuttered, obviously uneasy.

"Nothing much! Just about you, and about Ye Xuan." Lin Tong chuckled lightly.

Upon hearing this, Lu Miaochan's face was full of entanglement, falling into silence.

What she feared came true! She was now very hesitant, should she talk with Lin Tong? And how should she talk?

Seeing the other person's flickering gaze, Lin Tong smiled slightly without rushing her, just quietly standing there looking at her, her gaze still exceedingly gentle.

Like the soft spring breeze of March or April, gently brushing by, seemingly without a hint of hostility!

"Sister Miaochan, you don't need to be afraid, just talk to her! If she dares to bully you, I definitely won't let her get away with it!"

Liu Ying continued to pipe in, cheering Lu Miaochan on.

"Sister Miaochan, don't worry, Sister Lin Tong is very nice, she won't deliberately make things difficult for you." Murong Wanwan added.

"Miaochan, go ahead! This matter needs to be resolved eventually, running away isn't a solution. Since you can't avoid it, why not face it openly?" Wei Xiaosu whispered in Lu Miaochan's ear.

Originally, Lu Miaochan was very conflicted and nervous, but after listening to the three women's consolations, she felt somewhat relieved, and her tension eased quite a bit.

She raised her head and gazed at Lin Tong, biting her red lip, she said: "Sister Tong, then... then I'll talk with you!"

"Okay, come with me to the room."

Lin Tong nodded with a smile, pointing to a room inside, she turned around and walked over.

Lu Miaochan took a deep breath, tried to keep her mood calm, and followed Lin Tong into the room.

Lin Tong was the first to enter the room, then turned around. Once Lu Miaochan came in too, she closed the door, securing it with a lock.

"Why don't you sit over there." Lin Tong pointed in the direction of the balcony and said.

Lu Miaochan gently nodded, walked toward the balcony, and pulled out a chair at a finely crafted wooden table with two chairs before sitting down.

Seeing Lu Miaochan sit down, Lin Tong didn't hurry. First, she poured a glass of water for her, then poured one for herself, finally sitting on the opposite side.

"Miaochan, did Ye Xuan mention me when he was with you?"

The two of them exchanged a glance, Lin Tong opened her mouth to break the silence.

Lu Miaochan hesitated for a moment, shaking her head: "No."

"He didn't mention me? So you never knew I existed?" Lin Tong asked in surprise.

"Yes, that's right."

Lu Miaochan nodded, then added: "I didn't know before, but later, once by chance, I saw you two together..."

"Was that a few days ago? In the garage?"

"Yes! It was precisely because of that time that I found out about your existence... and that Ye Xuan, he's... he was already married."

At this point, Lu Miaochan's expression was somewhat downcast, her pretty face showing a sad and bitter expression.

Her heart didn't harbor resentment or anger! What she had was only full of bitterness, helplessness, and unwillingness! She had given so much for this relationship! In the end, she was left hurt and wounded... anyone else would probably feel unwilling too.

"Ha! He indeed is a big liar, not content with me, he still flirts around outside! Deceiving my feelings isn't enough, he even went on to deceive you, truly has his conscience eaten by a dog!"

Lin Tong let out a cold laugh, her tone carrying a hint of annoyance, and also a bit of sadness, but it was full of helplessness.

This helplessness was directed not only at Ye Xuan but also at the joke that fate played on her!

Hearing this, Lu Miaochan nodded, deeply understanding her.

Wasn't this guy just a big liar, playing with people's emotions, a thoroughly heartless creature, utterly detestable!

But she couldn't understand why, even though this guy was so detestable, she still liked him?!

Could it be that he had bewitched her to the point of being disoriented?

Perhaps, maybe, possibly...

That's just how it was!

"Yes! He... is indeed a big liar! Likes to flirt outside, but..."

Lu Miaochan's words paused for a moment, her pretty face blossomed into a radiant and charming smile, her eyes filled with a watery tenderness, she softly spoke with her red lips: "Even so, I still like him, and am willing to be deceived by him! If time could turn back, I wish I could be deceived by him once more!"

Lin Tong's heart trembled, staring at Lu Miaochan in shock, especially these words infused with genuine emotion, continuously tugging at her heartstrings.

She couldn't understand, why being deceived, yet still willing to be fooled? Was this foolishness or innocence? Why was Lu Miaochan so devoted to Ye Xuan? Was there a reason behind this?

Moreover, could there be such sincere feelings in the world!?

In earlier times, Lin Tong contemplated this question more than once, why she fell in love with Ye Xuan, even knowing he was a playboy, often flirting outside, yet she fell for him without regret? Even entrusting her lifelong happiness to him! Did that truly make her so easily deceived?

For this reason, she had thought of many answers, was it because he had given her much help before? Or because he was the one who took her first time?

But she felt these answers were incorrect! They didn't align with her heart's true feelings. Until now, she was still in confusion, unable to truly see her inner thoughts.

And today, she encountered another woman who was equally devoted, and they both loved the same man!

Lin Tong couldn't help but be more confused, were they too foolish? Or was Ye Xuan's charm too great? Even knowing he was a great hazard, willingly boarding a pirate ship as if bewitched!

Why is it this way?
