The scandal between Yu Hanshen and Lin Xianer also reached Han Lingli's ears.

Han Lingli was playing mahjong with some wealthy ladies she was friends with in the afternoon. At the mahjong table, she heard Mrs. Ma talking about this matter. Mrs. Ma was full of sarcasm when she said this: "I have disliked Jiao Lianfang for a long time. She deserves to be punished!"

Mrs. Ma was in her early thirties, and the mistress had taken her place. She was exactly the vixen that Jiao Lianfang hated. Jiao Lianfang was always sarcastic to her, and the two of them had always been at odds.

Han Lingli's attention was on Lin Xian'er, "What's the name of the little girl that President Yu is protecting?"

"I think her name is Lin...Lin Xian'er."

Han Lingli went home in the evening and told Qin Anxu about this.

"Hasn't the cooperation between Dingfeng and Huangsheng made no progress? Yu Hanshen is not easy to deal with, so we can start with his woman."

Han Lingli said, "I've inquired about it. The girl who is in love with Yu Hanshen is a sophomore at Ocean University. Her family is poor. I will go meet her tomorrow and give her some gifts so that she can persuade Yu Hanshen."

Qin Anxu has always wanted to cooperate with the Yu family's Huangsheng Group, but he has never been able to get in touch with Yu Hanshen.

With great difficulty, they managed to hook up with Yu Hanshen through the marriage between the eldest daughter and Young Master Yu. Everything was going well. Even before Han Lingli's birthday, Huangsheng Group had already been drafting a cooperation contract.

But later, for some reason, Huangsheng Group never contacted him again. Not to mention signing a contract, Yu Hanshen even avoided him.

He went to Huangsheng to look for Yu Hanshen several times, but the front desk staff always said that Mr. Yu was not there. Qin Anxu had been in the business world for so many years that he could tell that this was just Yu Hanshen's excuse for not wanting to see him.

Qin Anxu racked his brains to recall the past few days, but he really couldn't think of what he had done wrong to offend Yu Hanshen. Yu Hanshen had clearly attended Han Lingli's birthday party, which showed that Yu Hanshen valued the Qin family at that time.

After the birthday party, Yu Hanshen was obviously distancing himself from him.

After hearing Han Lingli's words, Qin Anxu frowned and asked, "Will this work?"

Han Lingli smiled and said, "It works, let's give it a try."

The next day, she booked a private room early in the morning and came to the eighth floor of the Royal Court in the evening.

This was not the first time that someone had specially booked a private room to see Lin Xian'er. When Han Lingli asked Lin Xian'er to sit down, she was still a little nervous.

Who can afford to book the Royal Court Box? She is an ordinary student, facing these powerful people, she can't help but feel terrified.

"Don't be afraid, we are just chatting. How long have you known Mr. Yu?" Han Lingli looked at Lin Xian'er calmly. She was indeed bright and beautiful, a stunner.

Lin Xian'er's eyes flickered. She had been asked this question many times. Ever since the rumor about her and the president of Huangsheng spread, many distinguished guests came to see her beauty.

She lowered her head and did not answer directly. She just blushed and said softly, "I have only been in the imperial court for a week."

That's true, she has only been here a week.

She still remembered that on the night she first arrived, many distinguished guests came to the box where she served, including Yu Hanshen.

It was the first time I met so many big names who I could only see in the media. I was so scared that my hands were shaking and I accidentally knocked over the cup when pouring tea for the guests.

What was knocked over happened to be Yu Hanshen's teacup.

She was scared to death at the time, and cold sweat instantly soaked her back, but Yu Hanshen did not blame her. Instead, he said, "Don't be nervous."

The man has a deep, powerful voice, which is charming and pleasant.

She raised her eyes and saw a mature and perfect man's face.

Since then, my heart has been lost.

She was on leave and not present at the scene on the day Yu Hanshen taught Jiao Lianfang a lesson, so the only interaction between her and Yu Hanshen was the words "Don't be nervous".

She didn't know how those rumors came about, but they made her very happy.

Whenever someone asked her how long she had known Mr. Yu, she didn't know how to answer, but she didn't want to cut off her only connection with Yu Hanshen, so she could only give an ambiguous answer.

Her answer would make others subconsciously think that she and Yu Hanshen had known each other for a week.

Han Lingli thinks so too.

"It seems that Mr. Yu fell in love with you at first sight." Han Lingli smiled.

His eyes fell on a pair of obviously inferior black high heels on Lin Xian'er's feet, and his smile deepened, "When are you going to take a break? I have two stores in the World Trade Center, shall we go shopping together?"

"I have a daughter who is about your age. When I saw you, it was like seeing my own daughter. I like you very much. You must accompany me. My daughter and her son-in-law are studying abroad recently. I am almost bored to death at home every day."

Han Lingli's words were half true and half false. Without waiting for Lin Xian'er to refuse, she turned around and asked the foreman when Lin Xian'er would take a break, and then set a time for shopping.

Lin Xian'er agreed reluctantly.

If you can get her out, then half the job is done. The smile on Han Lingli's face deepened, but the look in her eyes when she looked at Lin Xian'er showed a bit more contempt. Poor girls are indeed easy to deal with.

The job was done, Han Lingli paid the bill and left.

Passing by the box where Si Tong was working, Si Tong happened to come out to get something for a customer downstairs, and the two met at the door.

Han Lingli saw that she was wearing work clothes and frowned: "What are you doing here?"

"Go to work." Si Tong's voice was light and clear.

It’s not that Han Lingli didn’t think that Si Tong needed living expenses, but Si Tong never brought it up on his own initiative, so she pretended not to know.

She opened her mouth and was about to speak -

Zhao Ningqing's voice sounded first: "Isn't this my sister-in-law? What a coincidence, my sister-in-law is also eating here?"

Without waiting for Han Lingli to answer, Zhao Ningqing started to get fussy again: "Sister-in-law, isn't this your daughter? Why is she wearing the imperial court's work clothes? Could she be working as a waitress here?"

Han Lingli closed her eyes, trying to calm the anger rising in her chest.

"Sister-in-law, every time you play mahjong, you lose hundreds of thousands of dollars. How come your biological daughter is doing waitressing work here? You didn't give her living expenses?"

Behind Zhao Ningqing were two elegantly dressed ladies, who were obviously wealthy ladies in this circle. Zhao Ningqing pointed at Si Tong and said to the two wealthy ladies:

"Look, this is my sister-in-law's biological daughter. She's a waitress. She's from a poor family, but she's able to humble herself and serve others. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to do that."

In the last few sentences, Zhao Ningqing was obviously implying something about Han Lingli.

On Han Lingli's birthday, Yu Hanshen was present in person. Zhao Ningqing thought that Yu Hanshen valued Qin Anxu and his wife very much, so his attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees and he rushed to curry favor with Han Lingli.

But within two days, she heard that the cooperation between Qin Anxu's company and Huangsheng Group had fallen through, and Qin Anxu could not even see Yu Hanshen now.

So she stood up again in front of Han Lingli.

Seeing Han Lingli's frustrated look, she felt happy and laughed as she went into the box next door with her two friends behind her.

Si Tong didn't take Zhao Ningqing's words to heart and was about to leave.

Han Lingli stopped her and said, "Resign immediately and never show up in places like this to embarrass me again!"

Si Tong looked at her coldly, "I make money with my own hands, I don't feel ashamed."

"Isn't it just money? I'll give it to you, three thousand a month, is that enough?" Han Lingli was impatient, and her tone was as contemptuous as if she was giving alms to a beggar.

Si Tong looked at Han Lingli quietly, feeling a swelling in his heart.

Jiao Lianfang used money to humiliate her, but she didn't care, because in her eyes Jiao Lianfang was just a stranger, unimportant, so she didn't feel bad.

But the person in front of her is her biological mother, why does she treat her like this?

Han Lingli knew that she came to Haicheng penniless, but she never thought about how she survived those days and whether it was difficult.

"I can earn money to support myself. I don't need your money."

Si Tong spoke in a powerful voice, then turned and left.

"Si Tong!" Han Lingli called her in a high voice, with obvious anger, "Why do you have to go against me?"

Si Tong paused but did not look back: "You think too much, Madam Qin. I just want to live my life with my own hands."

Han Lingli looked at her back with gloom in her eyes.

If her mother hadn't threatened her with what happened that year, she would never have brought Si Tong to Haicheng to repeat her studies.
