314 I’ll Kill You
“That’s right. What does Young Master Zhao have to threaten you? You should be happy that he likes you. Why are you still pretending to be a chaste woman? You’re really disgusting.”
Zhao Yang’s lackey immediately chimed in.
“That’s not my notebook. I found it. Give it to me.” Pan Lingling knew that they were birds of a feather, so she did not want to say too much, but she still had to explain.
The woman with braids obviously didn’t believe her. She smiled coldly and rolled her eyes. “It’s not yours? Pan Lingling, do you think we’re stupid? How can the thing in your drawer belong to someone else? Don’t tell me you’re lying because we exposed your ugly side!”
The short and fat woman echoed, “Even if you didn’t write it, what do you mean by keeping it in your drawer?”
“Do you see it? This is reality. No matter if it’s yours or not, these people will still think that it’s yours.” Zhao Yang smiled smugly and said in a determined tone, “As long as you’re with me, I guarantee that they won’t say a word. How about it? Be my woman.”
“In your dreams.” Pan Lingling was so angry that her face turned pale. She took a deep breath and said, “No matter what you say, it’s not mine. Do whatever you want!”
Actually, she also knew that once these poems were out, her reputation would definitely be damaged. However, if she chose to be with Zhao Yang, the consequences would definitely not be something she could bear.
What kind of person was Zhao Yang? Previously, it was rumored that he had knocked up a girl and forced her to abort. Because of that, the woman could never be a mother for the rest of her life.
Therefore, Pan Lingling had always told herself not to get involved with Zhao Yang.
Seeing that Pan Lingling was really stubborn, Zhao Yang was furious. In an instant, he lost all his patience. He sneered and said without thinking, “Pan Lingling, I’m giving you face, but you don’t want it. Be careful. Don’t fall into my hands. Otherwise, I’ll kill you!”
Everyone looked at Pan Lingling sympathetically. Pan Lingling’s face was pale, and her eyes were instantly filled with tears. She bit her lower lip and shouted angrily and anxiously, “Zhao Yang, what exactly do you want? I told you I don’t like you. Can you stop pestering me? Do you know how annoying you are?”
boxn ov el. c o mZhao Yang’s face darkened. He was a person who cared about his face. Not only did Pan Lingling reject him in front of everyone, but she also made him sound like he was a simp.
Without thinking, he raised his hand and slapped Pan Lingling to the ground. Her fair face quickly swelled up, and Bai Meili happened to see this scene.
Not only did Pan Lingling and Bai Meili come from the same place, but they had also been neighbors for more than ten years. The two of them had been besties since they were young. Pan Lingling took very good care of Bai Meili. It was basically thanks to Pan Lingling that Bai Meili could get a job here. Therefore, in Bai Meili’s eyes, Pan Lingling was equivalent to her biological sister.
However, when she saw Zhao Yang slapping Pan Lingling angrily, the first thing she thought of was not to go over and help her good friend, but to hide from Zhao Yang.
She knew that doing this was cowardly and disappointing, but she had no choice. She was afraid, afraid of being isolated by her colleagues, and even more afraid of losing her job.
Therefore, she turned around and was about to leave when Qin Xi and the dean arrived.
The dean did not see Zhao Yang hitting Pan Lingling, but the way Pan Lingling fell to the ground and half of her face was red and swollen explained everything.
His face darkened, and his voice was deep. “Can someone tell me what happened here?”
