Chapter 1428: The Blackened Good Girl (63)

 "Lingling, aren't you being a bit naive?" the woman sitting to the side said with a chuckle. "Lu Jing likes you now, sure, but men change their hearts sooner or later."

"He won't. Lu Jing said he'd always treat me well. How could he change?" Wu Lingling insisted stubbornly. "He said he'd only ever love me."

"That was the old Lu Jing, Lingling." The woman patted her shoulder and lowered her voice. "The current Lu Jing is no longer the same."

"How is he different? Lu Jing is still Lu Jing. He spends every day with me, buys me little gifts, gives me money to spend, and listens to me. How is he any different?"

"The current Lu Jing already works at the Lu Corporation. Every day, he's dressed in a suit and leather shoes. He's no longer that little hoodlum who spent every day with you. Even if he was once a hoodlum, that doesn't change the fact that he's a young master of the Lu family.

"In the eyes of countless women, a man's past doesn't matter. What matters is the glory and success he has now."

"To many young women, the current Lu Jing is handsome, wealthy, and of noble status. Who wouldn't want to marry into the Lu family and become Madam Lu? Even if Lu Jing doesn't inherit the Lu Corporation, becoming his legal wife would still mean a lifetime of wealth and privilege."

"And what about you, Lingling?"

Wu Lingling could no longer speak.

What about her?

She was just a delinquent girl who had only graduated from middle school. She had achieved nothing in life. Apart from being somewhat pretty, she could hardly do anything.

No.

She could do many things.

Drink, smoke, sing karaoke, swear, fool around with these men... and even have abortions.

Wu Lingling's face was filled with panic, and her complexion had turned deathly pale.

Putting all those things together, she had already become someone unworthy of Lu Jing.

The distance between her and Lu Jing was growing greater and greater.

Lu Jing had a father of high status.

She didn't.

Even though Lu Jing had never finished high school, he could still work at the Lu Corporation.

She couldn't.

If Lu Jing left her, he could live an even more glamorous life, admired by countless people, because he was a young master of the Lu family.

But if she left Lu Jing, she would have no income and no place to live.

Wu Lingling was completely flustered.

Still, she forced herself to remain calm and said, "No. I believe in Lu Jing. The person he loves will always be me. He'll stay by my side forever."

Seeing Wu Lingling like this, Brother Dao and the others said nothing more.

The seed had already been planted, and it was slowly beginning to sprout.

From this day onward, Wu Lingling herself would become the greatest obstacle to Lu Jing's future.

Naturally, Brother Dao had no intention of exposing the photographs.

Those photographs would be useful someday.

Very useful.

"If Brother Dao and the boss behind him didn't have such deep grudges with me, I'd almost praise them. They're truly qualified villains."

Through the system's monitor, Tang Guo watched everything Wu Lingling was going through.

Seeing her pale face, her helpless eyes, and the way she wanted to flee in panic brought Tang Guo immense pleasure.

Being entangled with hoodlums wasn't much of a blow to Wu Lingling.

Even after so many scandals had been exposed, she still seemed shameless, muddling through life without any sense of dignity.

But today, Tang Guo had finally discovered what Wu Lingling feared.

Wu Lingling was still human.

She feared losing the finest thing she currently possessed.

"To Wu Lingling, Lu Jing is the best thing she has in her hands."
