Chapter 66 A Narcissistic Fool Who Has No Money and No Shame

"Mmph, mmph... You dead girl, ah!"

Mao Wenjie broke free from Chen Yuanyuan's hand, opening his foul mouth to start cursing.

Manager Li displayed the speed of a high school hundred-meter sprinter, rushing accurately in front of Mao Wenjie and giving him a massive slap across the face.

Ling Yue: ???

Was everyone being infected by her?

Why did everyone enjoy slapping people lately?

But it was a good slap!

Ling Yue sipped her tea leisurely.

Cheng Jiao naturally knew how to act based on her expression.

She took a step forward, standing behind Manager Li. "An employee doesn't recognize a Gold Card client and even tried to get handsy with her. If word gets out that Zhongcheng hires such employees, it would become the laughingstock of the industry."

Manager Li turned around: "Handsy?"

Chen Yuanyuan also looked incredulous, "Handsy?!"

"I didn't, don't talk nonsense! Who would get handsy with her!" Mao Wenjie hurriedly tried to clear his name.

[resentment value: 82%]

"Heh, if you two don't believe it, you can check the surveillance. However, I want to warn you: if your bank doesn't give my lady a satisfactory answer, then you might as well take this Gold Card back."

With a dark expression, Cheng Jiao placed the Gold Card on the nearby drinks counter.

She and Zang Lanyi flanked Ling Yue, escorting her away from the scene.

Manager Li was so angry his old frame was trembling. He raised eyes filled with deep resentment, wishing he could strangle Mao Wenjie. "You, come with me!"

In a deserted grove of trees.

"Manager Li, Yuanyuan, you have to believe me!" Mao Wenjie clutched his burning cheeks, feeling extremely aggrieved.

Ms. Ling was already angry, so reasoning was useless. Manager Li just wanted to figure out the situation as quickly as possible:

"Am I close to you? Why should I believe you?

You've been with the company for nearly a month. Don't you know the scale of this exhibition?

Anyone invited to this exhibition is a person of status and reputation, not someone a small bank clerk like us can afford to provoke. That Ms. Ling just now is a Gold Card client of our bank!

There are only 12 in the entire bank, and you managed to offend one of them.

You really know how to cause trouble for me!"

Manager Li became angrier as he spoke.

It went in one of Mao Wenjie's ears and out the other; his obsession was deep. "Impossible, she must be faking it!"

"Heh." Manager Li was laughed out of sheer anger.

"Where do you get the confidence to say she's faking it?"

Mao Wenjie explained urgently, "She's my ex-girlfriend. How could I not know her situation?"

The air froze.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

Manager Li took a deep breath, his expression helpless and full of regret. "Yuanyuan, it's not that your uncle isn't giving you face.

Back then, when your dad asked me to get your boyfriend into the bank, I gave him an internship without a second thought, thinking that if he was sharp, I'd give him a permanent position later.

But as you can see, he..."

Manager Li tapped his temple with his finger. "He's probably suffering from some sort of illness. I'm powerless to help."

This was putting it mildly.

A prestigious Gold Card client.

With a cash flow of over 2 billion in her account.

Would she have previously been with an idiot who lacked judgment, family background, looks, money, ability, and character... and had narcissistic tendencies?

He glanced at Chen Yuanyuan with sympathy. He had watched the girl grow up, but her taste in men... that brat must have been too good at pretending!

He didn't have time to argue with Mao Wenjie here.

Since he refused to admit it, he would just go and pull the surveillance footage first.

He had to speed things up. If he lost this Gold Card client, his position as manager would be over.

If a client of this magnitude filed a complaint against him, he would be completely blacklisted from other banking systems as well, and he really would be forced into retirement at fifty.

Only Mao Wenjie and Chen Yuanyuan were left at the scene.

Mao Wenjie scratched his hair anxiously.

"Yuanyuan, believe me, she really is my ex-girlfriend.

She used to work for others and lived a miserable life. This time, she must have snuck in to steal jewelry.

Yes! That must be it. Let's go report her quickly; maybe we can still prevent a tragedy.

When that happens, the organizers will look at us in a new light!"

Mao Wenjie remained trapped in his own delusions.

Only by belittling Ling Yue could he feel better.

Why was his reputation ruined while she could appear so radiantly in the public eye?

He was unwilling to accept it.

Chen Yuanyuan felt like she hardly recognized Mao Wenjie anymore.

No, or rather, he had hidden it too well before.

"You are truly sick.

Do you know Ms. Ling's status? You're just making wild accusations!

If she were your ex-girlfriend, then a Middle Eastern oil tycoon could be a Domineering CEO who falls in love with me. See, I can make up nonsense too."

Mao Wenjie held up three fingers toward the sky. "I swear, if I'm lying, may lightning strike me down."

"Stop with these empty gestures..."

"I have evidence!"

Chen Yuanyuan crossed her arms; she wanted to see what kind of evidence Mao Wenjie could produce.

Mao Wenjie searched back and forth through his phone.

Former photos? None.

Past chat records? None.

Phone number or WeChat? None.

Game friends? Absolutely none!

That's right.

After Ling Yue had come to his door and made a huge scene, he had been a bit traumatized.

He couldn't bear to see or hear anything related to Ling Yue, so he had formatted his phone.

It didn't matter; data could be recovered even after formatting.

"I don't have the evidence on hand right now, but give me two days. I'll find a phone repair shop..."

"Enough!"

Chen Yuanyuan's patience was exhausted. "If you want to dream, go back to your own house.

That Gold Card numbered '0012' this morning was personally delivered to Ms. Ling by me and Manager Li.

She is one of our bank's most distinguished clients. Stop fantasizing about her!

Do you know what it means to anger her?"

"Tsk!" Mao Wenjie was quite impatient. "Never mind what it means. In short, she's a fraud, a thief!"

Chen Yuanyuan sneered, "It means she has a cash flow of over 2 billion deposited in our bank!

It means that neither I nor Manager Li can afford to offend her!

And it means... you're finished."

Mao Wenjie was no longer angry.

It was more shock and disbelief. "Impossible. If she has 2 billion, I'll do a handstand while eating shit!"

If Ling Yue were really that rich, would she have dated him?

To Mao Wenjie, it was human nature to seek higher ground. Who would date down?

If he had 2 billion, he certainly wouldn't look twice at a woman like Chen Yuanyuan.

Chen Yuanyuan realized she had been incredibly stupid.

She shouldn't have agreed to her mother's request to go on a blind date with Mao Wenjie in the first place.

She especially shouldn't have been deceived by his outward gentleness and had her father pull strings for his job.

Not only was a favor wasted, but it had also caused a huge mess.

"Mao Wenjie, let's break up. No, that's not right. I was only testing you before, and now you've failed my test, so you don't even count as a stain on my life."

"Yuanyuan!"

Mao Wenjie grabbed Chen Yuanyuan as she turned to leave.

Chen Yuanyuan felt a wave of disgust as if she'd been struck by an electric shock. she struggled hard to throw off that clinging hand. "Let go!"

Mao Wenjie held on very tight; she couldn't break free for a moment.

"Mao Wenjie!" Manager Li returned.

Halfway there, he had received the surveillance video sent by the organizers.

It must have been ordered by Ms. Ling.

He opened it to watch immediately.

It was crystal clear. Mao Wenjie was the one who was disrespectful first, even pointing his finger at Ms. Ling. His attitude was not only irreverent, but he also lacked the most basic professional courtesy.

Even after she said she didn't know him, he was still there laughing 'heh heh heh' like a large wild boar with phlegm caught in its throat.

He likely learned that Ms. Ling was the most powerful buyer at today's high jewelry exhibition and shamelessly came over to attract her attention.

Truly shameless. If he could see through these little tricks, Ms. Ling naturally could as well!

No wonder Ms. Ling was angry.

What kind of thing was he to dare try and act familiar with her?!

"Come with me right now and apologize to Ms. Ling!"

The matter was now very clear.

Whoever caused the trouble was responsible for solving it. Mao Wenjie was the culprit and had to take responsibility.
