Chapter 2559 - Powerful Psychological Tactic (9)
Below the headline was a blurry photo of Qin Chu and the woman who looked like her; who else could it be but Zhang Manlin?
“Sis, I really thought she was you when I first met her, she even dresses like you! If memory serves me right, you have an outfit like that as well, don’t you?” Zhixin asked.
“Let’s talk outside.” Huo Mian immediately put away Zhixin’s phone and pushed Zhixin out of the kitchen. She didn’t want her mother to worry.
“Mian, what’s wrong?” Yang Meirong couldn’t help but notice how cryptic her daughter was.
“Oh, nothing, just celebrity gossip. Mom, I need to talk to Zhixin, can you make me some potato pancakes?”
“Sure.”
-Inside the living room –
Huo Mian stared blanketly at Zhixin’s phone, her brows twisted into a knot.
“Sis, isn’t this woman’s name Zhang Manlin?”
“Mhm.” Huo Mian nodded.
“She’s such a b*tch! Bella was right about her.” Zhixin suddenly erupted with anger.
“What did Bella say?” Huo Mian looked up at her brother and asked.
“Bella said my brother-in-law has been acting really weird recently. Apparently, he canceled a couple ^ to go see Zhang Manlin. In the beginning, I didn’t believe her, but everyone’s talking about it, especially the finance department. Do you remember when Zhang Xiaoxiao fainted? My brother-in-law took her to the hospital. After Zhang Xiaoxiao was discharged, she treated Zhang Manlin and Chu to dinner, and Zhang Manlin even posted a photo of them. Zhang Manlin seems like a really manipulative woman... Also, Sis, don’t get mad at me for saying this, but I didn’t use to think Chu would so something like that, but after what happened, I couldn’t help but rethink things... why would he go eat with Zhang Xiaoxiao? Once he even rejected the mayor’s invitation to dinner. He doesn’t seem like himself, I think Zhang Manlin’s using some schemes on him.”
“Zhixin, do you think Zhang Manlin looks like me?” Huo Mian didn’t respond to Zhixin’s rant about Qin Chu. Rather, she asked him another question.
“Um …”
“We’re siblings, just tell me the truth. I can take it.”
The truth is you guys really do look alike…Plus, she’s younger and looks like you from high school. Rumor has it that your personalities are similar as well. I’ve never talked to her before so I don’t know much, but Bella despises her. She’s also mad at Qin Chu for what happened.”
“I know, Bella’s always been on my side.” Huo Mian nodded.
“Sis, what should we do? Now that it’s on the news, everyone knows! This is such a huge scandal for you. Plus, you’re the Vice Director of South Side, people are going to talk about you!” Zhixin truly felt bad for his sister...
“It’s fine, I don’t care what other people say.”
“So you’re going to let this go?” Zhixin stared at Huo Mian in disbelief; he felt like his sister had become more mellow since giving birth to the twins.
Was she really going to let someone like Zhang Manlin bully her? Back then, even Song Yishi was scared of her!
“I know what to do, I will talk to Qin Chu.”
“You should, as soon as possible.” Zhixin nodded.
“Breakfast is ready!” Yang Meirong brought out the dishes she made. She suddenly thought of her unanswered question. “Mian, Zhixin cut me off just now so you didn’t answer my question. Have you had your period yet this month?”
