Ye Ling looked at Liu Lin with a calm gaze. She could sense that there was a sharp, poisonous thorn in Liu Lin’s eyes directed at her.
Liu Lin’s lips curled into a smile, and she raised her chin, looking down at Ye Ling arrogantly. ‘You’ve already found a new man so quickly?”
Ye Ling was momentarily taken aback.
Was Liu Lin not planning to put on an act?
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Ling decided to maintain her original persona in case Liu Lin noticed anything amiss.
Ye Ling widened her eyes slightly and pretended to be surprised and confused. “Liu Lin, what do you mean by that?”
Liu Lin, observing Ye Ling’s innocent appearance, was so infuriated that her anger was about to explode.
She had always believed Ye Ling to be foolish, but it seemed she had been mistaken. This woman must be a cunning b*tch, to have charmed Min Nan in such a short time!
Shortly after Liu Lin returned from the old house that day, she heard the news that Min Nan had been in a fight with someone. The matter had escalated significantly, and the opponent was the director of the Willow Village forest farm and the vice chairman of the Willow Village Committee, a person of high status.
As for the reason behind the fight, it was over a young female scholar who had recently arrived at Willow Village.
Though Liu Lin wasn’t aware of the specifics, the information she gathered was enough to drive her to the brink of madness with jealousy.
On the day of the torrential rain, Min Nan had not hesitated to injure himself to avoid being intimate with her. This alone had left her feeling desperate and seething with anger.
What she hadn’t anticipated was that, despite being injured, Min Nan had fought with someone over Ye Ling, that b*tch!
In contrast, she felt like a clown!
Liu Lin couldn’t fathom why things had taken a turn for the worse in this lifetime. With her reborn memories, she believed she could shape the course of destiny, but the reality had veered far from her expectations.
Liu Lin didn’t even know when Ye Ling had seduced Min Nan.
Perhaps Ye Ling’s visit to Willow Village had nothing to do with the village chief’s intentions. Maybe, it was Ye Ling who had specially asked the village chief to arrange it to seduce Min Nan.
Thinking of this, Liu Lin gritted her teeth in hatred.
In her previous life, she had drugged Ye Ling and orchestrated a situation where Wu De raped her in the reeds. Eventually, she persuaded Ye Ling to marry Wu De, leading to a miserable existence. But in this life, something had gone awry. Wu De had failed to rape Ye Ling.
Ye Ling hadn’t fallen victim to Wu De’s assault. Instead, she had become infatuated with Min Nan.
Liu Lin chastised herself for being too careless. She shouldn’t have been so overconfident. Her rebirth had led her to believe she could control everyone’s destiny, yet many aspects of this life had deviated from her initial expectations.
Furthermore, Liu Lin had also made the wrong decision. She wanted to seduce Min Nan into sleeping with her. It was almost impossible for her to fail. How could a normal man endure such a situation? But who knew that Min Nan had such strong self-control?
The situation was spiraling out of control. Just now, Min Nan had even sent Ye Ling to take an exam. Liu Lin was in the dark about the current state of their relationship. After all, she didn’t reside in Willow Village, and thus couldn’t ascertain the specifics. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟ｅｌ.ｃ𝚘𝚖
Liu Lin glared at Ye Ling coldly. “Do you think Min Nan would be interested in you? Do you even know who his father is? And as for you, look at the ragged clothes you’re wearing. You don’t even have a decent outfit. Even if an ordinary bird dreams of soaring to great heights and becoming a majestic phoenix, it should first consider whether it’s capable of bearing such fortune. Don’t end up becoming the laughingstock of others! ”
Listening to Liu Lin’s words, Ye Ling realized she was trying to belittle her.
In her previous life, Ye Ling would have been timid and self-conscious, likely shedding tears from such comments. But at this moment, her heart remained unperturbed.
She even gleaned some critical information from Liu Lin’s words. Liu Lin was acquainted with Min Nan and had a deep understanding of his family circumstances.
When Min Nan had mentioned a person named Liu Lin before, Ye Ling had assumed it was merely a coincidental name. But now, it appeared that the Liu Lin Min Nan had referred to was indeed Liu Lin.
Considering this, Ye Ling felt like she had touched upon a portion of the truth.
As the saying goes, “There’s no love or hatred without reason in this world.” Ye Ling had no prior animosity toward Liu Lin, yet Liu Lin consistently schemed against her. Could it be that her presence had encroached upon Liu Lin’s interests? Could this be related to Min Nan?
Such thoughts crossed Ye Ling’s mind, but she didn’t reveal a hint on her face.. Confronting Liu Lin’s mockery, she smiled faintly and responded, “Are you implying that you want that kind of fortune?”
