“What do you mean?” Liu Yiyi knitted her brows together. She, who had been keeping quiet the whole time, instantly stood up, as if she was a cat that had its tail stepped on.

No matter how righteous a mistress was, she would automatically be given grief in front of the legitimate wife and would be afraid of others mentioning this status of hers.

Lu Weixi’s lips curved up in a faint smile. “Nothing much. If you want to live however you like, build a villa for yourself. If you want to walk around with your back upright, find a single man that has no wife. Host Liu, am I right?”

Ever since Liu Yiyi entered the entertainment circle, her journey had been smooth-sailing and had even successfully squeezed into the popular variety shows, replacing the seniors there. She had even accepted a few sponsorships and gotten to know Qin Zhiyou. Even the boss of Lu Yuan Interiors did not dare to talk to her loudly. Who is this woman in front of me who dares to mock me like this?

Liu Yiyi’s eyes turned sharp as her heels clucked noisily when she walked to Lu Weixi. She flung her wrists and her target was Lu Weixi’s cheeks.

“Lu Gong, watch out!” gasped Xiao Chen, as she did not expect Liu Yiyi to suddenly have an outburst.

Piak! That slap was stopped in mid-air. It was Lu Weixi who held Liu Yiyi’s wrist tightly and stopped her slap.

“Let go of me! Let go of me right now!” Liu Yiyi tried her best to struggle but vaguely felt something was wrong when she could not get out of the other’s grasp. Liu Yiyi’s intricately made-up face was filled with shock.

Lu Weixi held onto her wrist with an iron grip and pulled strongly, pulling Liu Yiyi in. A chuckle left her lips. “Host Liu, this is not how you slap someone.”

The woman in front of her only had light makeup on. She raised her brows and something flashed in her eyes, like a fox that was huntingーcunning, charismatic and agile. Liu Yiyi was a beauty herself and had seen many pretty women during her time in the entertainment circle, and she could not help but admit that Lu Weixi’s smile was very beautiful.

It was entrancing.

However, in the next secondーpiak! A fiery slap harshly landed on her face, making her face sting with heat.

Liu Yiyi was dazed. Her assistant, Xiao Chen and the other people in the office were stupefied. After some time, Liu Yiyi widened her eyes in disbelief and shrieked, “You hit me? How dare you hit me?”

The offending woman’s lips curved up and her left hand was still holding onto Liu Yiyi’s wrist tightly.

“So what if I hit you?”

Then, Lu Weixi slapped her again with her other hand.

Piak!

When this slap landed, Lu Weixi also let go of Liu Yiyi’s wrist. Liu Yiyi lost her balance, instinctively moving back two steps and only stopped when her hand grasped onto the table. The two palm prints on her face were symmetrical and very red.

No one dared to make a single sound in the entire room, as everyone stared at Lu Weixi silently in a daze.

Lu Weixi stepped on her heels and looked down from above. She casually took out some tissue from the side and carefully wiped her hands, as if she had dirtied her hands when she slapped Liu Yiyi earlier on. Her face was icy cold, as she directly took the proposal and contract at the side. With the loud shreds filling the silence, she ripped the proposal into pieces in front of Liu Yiyi.

“If you want to complain or seek compensation, do as you please. I won’t accept your case,” said Lu Weixi as she chuckled. “Or perhaps you can get your CEO Qin to personally fire me. I welcome you to do it since he loves you so much.”
