Chapter 1319: Chapter 1319: I Will Return to the Corporation Tomorrow! Chapter 1319: Chapter 1319: I Will Return to the Corporation Tomorrow! “My sister doesn’t just do as I say; she has her own opinions. She believes you are my fiance based on an arrangement made by our families’ elders, and I don’t think she’s spreading rumors out of thin air.”

“The fact is we were supposed to be husband and wife, and there’s no use in Mr. Lu denying it. Although you deny our engagement in front of Qiao Yin, you had clearly agreed to the union before, otherwise, our families wouldn’t have had dinner together at your place that night.”

Lu Lingche’s voice was very cold, “When did I ever agree to the engagement, in your daydreams? I didn’t know much about you before, but now I see that the Eldest Miss Gu is quite the liar, and she even does it with such righteous indignation!”

Gu Ranxuan still shook her head, “If you don’t want to acknowledge it, that’s fine. After all, you’re now interested in pursuing my Third Sister, so it’s normal for you not to admit to our past. I just hope that you truly treat my Third Sister well. Let’s let bygones be bygones!”

After she finished speaking, she turned and walked away.

Gu Ranmo didn’t expect her to leave so decisively, and after freezing for a moment, she stomped her feet in anger and followed.

Lu Lingche looked very upset, and he couldn’t help but turn to look at Qiao Yin, “She’s talking nonsense, don’t believe her. There was never anything between her and me; it’s not that I’m not acknowledging it, it truly never happened.”

“Oh, is that so?”

“Really! Even if you don’t believe me, you should believe my dad, right? He’s said before that I have always been against the arranged marriage. For Gu Ranxuan to say I agreed is outright absurd!”

Qiao Yin blinked, finding Lu Lingche’s eagerness to explain somewhat amusing.

She didn’t disbelieve him; after all, on the evening both families had dinner together, she had seen that Lu Lingche hadn’t looked at Gu Ranxuan at all.

Moreover, Gu Ranxuan had actually been deliberately saying things in front of her to imply a close relationship with Lu Lingche. However, Gu Ranxuan didn’t really understand Lu Lingche’s character. If she truly had any interaction with Lu Lingche, she would never speak that way.

Qiao Yin had long realized that Gu Ranxuan was just creating an illusion that there was a close connection between her and Lu Lingche. She would claim to be indifferent about these matters, expressing a lack of interest in marriage, yet in reality, she cared deeply about who her marital partner would be. She was not as nonchalant as she appeared to be.

“It’s okay, didn’t you hear the Eldest Miss say she just hopes you treat me well? The Eldest Miss really is a good person, huh!”

Lu Lingche’s face darkened, “You actually believe she hopes I’ll treat you well? She deliberately claimed I agreed to the arranged marriage and said things that are easy to misinterpret, clearly trying to come between us. She is nothing but an angelic bitch; if you take her seriously as your Eldest Miss, you’re being foolish!”

Qiao Yin clapped her hands sarcastically, “Wow, it’s not easy, so Mr. Lu can actually differentiate an angelic bitch now? How come you couldn’t tell with Lan Yuyi before? Is it because Lan Yuyi framed me rather than you, so you thought she was kind and wonderful, and now that Gu Ranxuan is framing you instead of me, you no longer find her so wonderful?”

It was then that Lu Lingche realized Qiao Yin was setting a trap for him; she had known all along that Gu Ranxuan wasn’t a good person.

To this day, Qiao Yin still couldn’t let go of the incident with Lan Yuyi.

Lu Lingche whispered an apology, “I was wrong before. It’s not that I couldn’t see Lan Yuyi for the angelic bitch she was, but as she was my brother’s fiancee, no matter what she did, I always gave way out of respect for my brother.”

“It’s only now that I can truly empathize with you, understand the situation you were in, and how much you suffered. I won’t let you suffer anymore.”

Qiao Yin gave a faint smile, knowing she didn’t need his help and wouldn’t let herself suffer anymore.

She had become strong on her own, and she now understood that love and men aren’t everything in life. Earning money, improving medical skills, enhancing her ability to live life–these things are most important.

“I really want to learn corporate management in Shengling Group, so I hope Mr. Lu returns to the group to take up your role as President Lu soon. That way, I can join the group as an assistant. Gu Ranxuan isn’t important, learning new things is more important.”

“Alright, I’ll return to the group tomorrow!”
