One of the women said, âSo she used to be the Pei familyâs daughter. As expected of someone who was raised by a wealthy family. Sheâs got a lot of ways to seduce men.â
Pei Xinâs expression turned ugly when she overheard them. She defended herself. âIâm here to talk to Lu Huai about a potential collaboration. Weâre both women here. Is there any point in making things difficult for me?â
Another woman quickly interrupted her.
âThereâs nothing to compare to. We were born into an ordinary family. We studied hard and got into a top university before we had the chance to enter CEO Luâs company.
âIn order to stay, we had to gamble and sacrifice so much of our lives. Unlike you, you only needed CEO Luâs pity to get in.â
Pei Xin stared at them coldly. âYou envy my life. Do you know how much pain Iâve suffered?â
She rolled up her long sleeves, revealing the green and purple scars on her arm.
There were knife wounds and burns on it, and there was almost no intact skin.
The two female employees widened their eyes and took a step back in panic. Their eyes were filled with fear.
Pei Xin became even bolder when they reacted.
It turns out that these people only knew how to talk.
âI was wrongly accused and sent to prison. Someone even bribed the people in prison to torture me every day.
âHave you ever experienced the feeling of not having a full nightâs sleep for five years?
âHave you ever had your head dunked into a toilet bowl to the point of suffocation?
âHave you ever experienced the pain of not being able to die even if you wanted to?
âIâve just been released from prison, and someone is already thinking about taking my kidney. They clearly know that I have heart disease and that Iâll die if my kidney is taken out, but theyâre still expecting me to give it to them.â
Pei Xin approached the two of them step by step.
âYes, I once enjoyed the luxurious life of a rich young lady. But these five years of nightmarish torture are enough for me to repay the enjoyment 1 once had. You think youâre ordinary, but do you know how much I envy you instead? I just want to live a normal life!â
The two female employees immediately regretted their decision.
The reason why they hated Pei Xin was that after Song Hua caused a ruckus in the company yesterday, they secretly looked up Pei Xinâs past experiences online.
They thought that Pei Xin was just a vain woman who stole the life of someone elseâs daughter.
However, after seeing the injuries on Pei Xinâs body and her painful and desperate gaze, the two female employees realized that the rumors online might not be true.
At this moment, Lu Huaiâs office door opened.
Two people walked out of the office.
They were Xu Lian and Lu Huai.
Pei Xin turned around when she heard the commotion. She was about to pass the document to Lu Huai when she met Xu Lianâs gaze.
Xu Lian and Lu Huai were walking very close, and Pei Xin panicked for no reason.
She suddenly wanted to escape.
Lu Huai also subconsciously took two steps forward to put some distance between him and Xu Lian.
Pei Xin lowered her head. âIt seems that you still have something to do. You guys go ahead. Iâll come back tomorrow.â
Pei Xin prepared to leave.
âWait a minute.â Lu Huai took a step forward and grabbed Pei Xinâs arm.
When Xu Lian saw this scene, a trace of viciousness and jealousy flashed across her originally clear eyes.
This was the Pei Xin Song Hua had mentioned, she was indeed capable.
She could easily stir up a manâs emotions.
This was the second time she had spoken to Lu Huai, and Lu Huai had always been extremely calm.
Only when in Pei Xinâs presence did Lu Huaiâs emotions fluctuate.
Xu Lian clenched her fists tightly.
Even if she could not compare to Song Hua, she was still better than Pei Xin.
Even if the Xu family went bankrupt, she still had a clean identity, unlike Pei Xin, who had occupied someone elseâs daughterâs life for more than ten years and even betrayed her boyfriend who loved her so much.
Pei Xinâs heart beat very fast the moment Lu Huai grabbed her.
She turned around in a panic and looked at Lu Huai helplessly. âCEO Lu, please let go.â
Lu Huai stared at her and said, âI wonât let go. We agreed to talk about a potential collaboration, right? If you donât tell me your plan, how will we get to work together?â
Lu Huai was clearly talking about the cooperation between the two companies, but Pei Xin felt like it had a different meaning.
Pei Xin felt her face burning, having all eyes on her.
She felt very embarrassed and wanted to escape from here..
