Chapter 916: Chapter 550: Tang Wan Tears Apart the Scheming Mistress—Fierce and Fearless (Part 3)In just over ten minutes, at the wrap party, Tang Wan had dealt with the little tea green issue, and it was already a trending topic on social media.

At this time, some so-called insiders from the hospital stepped forward.

”Actually, the only reason Xiang Xiaoyuan got into the hospital was because she used Tang Wan’s connections. Who knew she wouldn’t be grateful and would bite back instead.”

”During working hours, she often jokes around. While others are working, she goes to visit Tang Wan’s grandmother in the ward, clearly trying to curry favor.”

”Anyway, no one in our hospital likes her.”

...

The online situation, which was just in her favor, flipped in an instant, and she became the target of public criticism.

Xiang Xiaoyuan, unaware of what was happening online, just wanted to quickly escape this place of right and wrong.

Unexpectedly, she suddenly heard someone say:

”People like this don’t recognize their own status.”

”Just because they’re wearing nice clothes, they think they can be above others?”

”Every circle has its own hierarchy. If you use dirty tricks to climb up, no one will genuinely respect you even if you’re on top of the world.”

Xiang Xiaoyuan, already on edge because of Tang Wan’s words, looked over, trembling with emotion, and saw—

Ruan Mengxi!

They had met before in the old lady’s ward. Although they had greeted each other, as an assistant to a big company, her face carried an official business smile. But Xiang Xiaoyuan knew that this woman had never genuinely looked at her.

Being mocked by Tang Wan was already bad enough, but how could even an assistant jump out to criticize her?

”What right do you have to talk to me like this?!” She glared at Ruan Mengxi, eyes sinister, ”Aren’t you relying on currying favor with Tang Wan to become Qi Zeyan’s assistant?”

”You’re friendly with them, and you expect me to believe you’re not after something from them!”

”The moment Tang Wan arrived, you were all over her, personally going to greet her. How are you any better than me?”

Ruan Mengxi had long wanted to deal with her, and she didn’t expect Xiang Xiaoyuan to initiate confrontation. She curled her lips, ready to completely tear apart this little green tea when—

Unexpectedly, Qi Zeyan, who had been watching the drama unfold, became displeased.

What on earth?

Was the spectator’s gossip reaching his employee now?

In fact, there were many people discussing Xiang Xiaoyuan at this time, possibly because Ruan Mengxi was closest to her and seemed to be the only soft target among this group of people.

After all, if not big celebrities, they were renowned socialites in the Beijing circle, and she seemed the easiest to manipulate.

However, people in the ”Feng Que” crew knew that Assistant Qi Shao was no pushover.

They still vividly remembered the incident with You Congrong, where Ruan Mengxi had openly confronted, scolded, and even physically attacked her...

Since then, in the crew, no one dared to casually treat her as just an assistant.

When everyone thought Ruan Mengxi might say something, unexpectedly, the first to speak out was Qi Zeyan.

”Ms. Xiang, what did you just say, that she got in by connections?”

”Regardless of work ability or efficiency, for her to be by my side for so long, she naturally has her exceptional qualities.”

...

Today he still sported his slicked parted hair, wearing a crisp and tidy suit, his leather shoes polished to a shine, exuding an air of the wealthy young master.

His words were casual, yet carried a sharpness, especially at the end, when he added:

”It seems you’re not accusing her of using connections, but rather...”

”Indirectly calling me blind.”

Before this, everyone was discussing the online chatter about someone being foolishly rich, laughing and teasing him, but now no one dared to say another word.

The entire hall fell into a bizarre silence, dead quiet.

Qi Zeyan looked at Xiang Xiaoyuan, graceful and composed.

A picture of professionalism.

Who knows what he was thinking at that moment:

You can’t handle Tang Wan and Jiang Xiaowu, so you come after my person, try to make a scene with my employee?

Who the hell gave you that courage?

Then I’ll send you skyrocketing to the heavens!
