CHAPTER 187
Before Li Jing could argue with her, Yin Lifen removed her car from neutral and moved it back. "Yin Lifen stop the car. I AM NOT GOING ANYWHERE. Let me out!"
Screech!
"Forgive me but your safety is my top priority." She put the gear on reverse and then moved it to drive before she made her reverse and faced the main road, ready to drive off. "Yin Lifen!" Li Jing called out again giving her the warning tone, but her friend paid her no heed.
"You leave me no choice."
"What..."
She did not have time to register what Li Jing said when her friend held unto the steering and swerved the car to the side.
WHOOSH!
SCREECH!
The car moved to the left-hand side and unfortunately as both ladies fought with the wheel, Yin Lifen was forced to let go and she finally matched the brake just before the car slammed into the nearest fence.
Both ladies fell forward on the carboard before their bodies fell backwards as their chest rose and fell with each breath they took.
The sound had indeed disturb the riot and drew the attention of angry fans to the car but when they saw that the rider did not have an accident, they went back to what they were doing and continued calling Li Jing names.
It was Yin Lifen who first raised her head up. She moved both hands forward on her face and remove the strand of hair from her face.
Slowly she looked to the side and saw that Li Jing was okay and had come to as well. "Hey, are you alright?" Her fingers brushed the hair from Li Jing’s forehead but before they could do more, Li Jing slapped her hand away and unclasped her seat belt.
"Li Jing, wait." Yin Lifen held her arm, stopping her movement but the cold look Li Jing shot her made her retract her hands. "Hey, I know you are mad but calm down. You cannot waltz pass that crowd of angry people. It would be dangerous."
"I just want to go home and check my phone. I know I would have several miscalls by now."
"Still," Yin Lifen was going to argue with Li Jing but after some thoughts on it, she decided not to. Taking in a deep breath, she closed and reopened her eyes before speaking. "Wait I am coming with you."
Li Jing did not say anything but the hesitating look in her eyes told a different story. "Fine."
"Here." Yin Lifen opened her pigeon hole and took out two black shades then handed one to Li Jing. "Wear it. They wouldn’t be able to recognize you."
Together both ladies wore their sunshades and stepped out the car, heading in the direction of her house.
Luckily for her, they successfully made their way through without the busy rioters noticing who she was.
By the time she got to her condo unit, she quickly went to her room to pick her phone up.
"Thirty-three missed calls!" Li Jing half yelled and unlocked her phone to check the caller.
"Ye Cheng, Ye Cheng, Ye Cheng! He alone gave me so many missed calls. I better check the social media accounts."
If she had known she would have prevented herself from doing so as the moment she opened it, what she saw left her mouth hanging wide open.
"No."
"The new financial whore that warmed her way up to the bed of the CEO of Dream Star Corporation," Li Jing read out loud.
She saw several pictures of Ye Cheng and Bai Qing Mei kissing while at another end, it was a picture of herself and Ye Cheng on Christmas watch night kissing. Then there was another one of her and Duan Tian and another of she dinning with Tang Zixin and Luo Jinhai and the last of she and Hong Haoran.
Li Jing’s mouthy hung agape at the pictures of her and the men in her life as they enveloped the internet. She wasn’t happy with the names she was being called and that had only pissed her off.
"Queen whore! Bitchy mistress! She doesn’t deserve our Ye Cheng. How dare she try to ruin our Ye Cheng’s reputation by tainting his image? She doesn’t deserve to stand by his side."
"This girl is crazy."
"Really, looks can be deceiving."
"All she has is a pretty face, nothing more."
"She is a gold digger."
"She wants to ruin the lovely relationship Ye Cheng and Bai Qing Mei has."
The more Li Jing read the more it felt as though they were saying those words to her and she did not like it one bit.
She did not need someone too tell her twice who was behind the whole problem. It was plainly written there.
As her mind worked themselves thinking and reading the defaming comments, she did not know when or how her phone got snatched from her. "Li Jing, you shouldn’t listen to what is on the internet."
Yin Lifen cautioned her and turned her phone screen off. "Hey, give that back."
"Ignore their rude comments, Li Jing. They are not worth it."
"I know but this is becoming too much. Can’t I have my peace because of these two ingrates in my life? What wrong have I done them?"
"Nothing and everything," Yin Lifen answered truthfully.
"What?"
"Relax, it is like this. You did nothing but they envy you cause things are coming your way and working for your good. This was something they cherished. You took nothing from Li Xiu yet she hates you but for Bai Qing Mei, you stole her boyfriend from her."
"No, I didn’t. Her betrayal pushed him away from her not me."
"Still, it is the same thing." Yin Lifen argued. "You need to use your head Li Jing, if you want to deal with these girls. One of them is almost untouchable and the other is a pushover loser with a lousy boyfriend."
Li Jing’s lips curved upwards into a smile at the mention of a lousy boyfriend. It was true what Yin Lifen said, Li Xiu is a pushover. Her main problem was Bai Qing Mei.
