The Domineering Boss is Addicted to the Convict novel Chapter 47

Ling Yiran pursed her lips, finding Xiao Ziqi ridiculous. She started to walk away from him.

Xiao Ziqi was angry as he felt that Ling Yiran had not only turned down his goodwill, but that she despised him. He said, "Ling Yiran, what do you mean by this? I'm already taking a risk by offering to help you!"

"Did anyone ever ask you to take the risk?" Ling Yiran asked flatly. She continued, saying, "Moreover, aren't you afraid that Miss Hao will get to hear about this?"

At that instant, a voice was heard saying, "What is it that you're keeping from me?"

Xiao Ziqi froze. He released his grip on Ling Yiran's arm immediately and turned to look at Hao Yimeng, who was walking toward him, then said, "Oh, it's nothing."

When Hao Yimeng heard Xiao Ziqi's reply, she went up to him, putting her hand around his arm and saying, "Ziqi, why did you talk to this kind of person? Aren't you afraid that Yi Jinli will get to know about it? You know jolly well that my sister is the only woman that Yi Jinli is willing to marry. Although my sister had been dead for three years, he has never had another woman..."

Although Hao Yimeng did not complete her sentence, everyone knew what she meant.

Xiao Ziqi's face turned pale when he remembered the Projection Ads that had been taken down and Yi Jinli's refusal to attend their engagement banquet.

The Xiao family reckoned that it was because of Ling Yiran that Yi Jinli had refused to meet them.

"Ling Yiran, you're only fit to be a sanitation worker. Do you think Yi Jinli knows that you're already out of prison? I believe that before long, you will no longer be able to survive in Shen City," Hao Yimeng said, sounding as though she was a queen. After saying that, she walked away with Xiao Ziqi, holding him by the arm.

Ling Yiran looked calm. She took her tools and headed toward a section of the highway, riding on the bicycle provided by the Sanitation Service Center.

Ling Yiran had already buried the feelings that she had had for Xiao Ziqi. When she saw him again, he was like a stranger to her.

She no longer felt anything when she saw Xiao Ziqi and Hao Yimeng behaving intimately.

After a while, he found a piece of news that had been reported three years ago. A picture of the woman who had received the gift from Hao Yimeng had appeared in that news.

"This is too much of a coincidence!" Li Xinzheng exclaimed.

Three years ago, that woman had been Xiao Ziqi's girlfriend. However, three years later, she had become a sanitation worker and was receiving a gift from Xiao Ziqi's current girlfriend as an apology.

Li Xinzheng became excited. He felt that if he were to report this piece of news, it would spread quickly and become a hot topic.

Li Xinzheng immediately got to work on that piece of news. However, when he handed his work in to the editor, the editor rejected it and told him to re-write it.

"Why must I re-write it?" Li Xinzheng asked unhappily. He continued, saying, "This news will hit the headlines."
