Chapter 1011: Are You Stupid?
Li Xiaoyun hadn’t shown any signs before this.
Without any warning, without a word, she just acted.
Adhering to the principle of solving things directly, it left Zheng Xuelin stunned, holding his face.
"Li Xiaoyun!" Zheng Xuelin covered his face, looking at her in disbelief.
Li Xiaoyun actually dared to hit him!
And it was in the cafeteria, in such a crowded place!
Has Li Xiaoyun gone mad?
Zheng Xuelin’s eyes were red with anger, his once delicate and pleasant face became twisted, distorting his features.
Instinctively, Zheng Xuelin raised his hand, intending to hit back at Li Xiaoyun.
Being slapped in public by Li Xiaoyun like this really hit hard.
Zheng Xuelin was losing it.
He felt utterly humiliated.
To think that he’d been hit by a woman in public! What a disgrace!
Ever since the contract was taken, he had been suppressing his feelings.
He was about to explode yesterday, but was thwarted by Zhao Dingli and the business department at the same time.
Seeing that Li Xiaoyun had Zhao Dingli’s backing, Zheng Xuelin knew he stood no chance.
However, he couldn’t just leave defeated.
He could admit defeat, but he couldn’t let Li Xiaoyun win that easily.
Even if he had to leave, he’d make sure to take a piece of Li Xiaoyun with him!
So, Zheng Xuelin went back and thought long and hard about how to take down Li Xiaoyun.
He finally came up with a plan.
Li Xiaoyun accused him of being involved with Vice President Lu, huh?
Of course, his dealings with Vice President Lu were true.
But didn’t Li Xiaoyun have no evidence?
Without evidence, even if everyone believed it, he could still firmly deny it and accuse Li Xiaoyun of slander.
He could even counter-accuse, claiming that it was Li Xiaoyun who was actually selling herself.
After all, from Zheng Xuelin’s view, Li Xiaoyun’s relationship with Zhao Dingli was definitely suspicious.
Otherwise, why would a man like Zhao Dingli, who appeared so cold, come to the company for her?
They claim to be clean, but even he doesn’t buy it.
Zheng Xuelin raised his hand, looking like he wanted to hit Li Xiaoyun.
But he hesitated because there were so many people around; a man hitting a woman would not look good.
If there were no people around, or only a few, Zheng Xuelin would have no qualms about hitting her.
He might even give her a vicious beating.
Li Xiaoyun looked at Zheng Xuelin with mockery in her eyes, her gaze sarcastic.
"This slap is for your filthy mouth and inability to handle defeat," Li Xiaoyun said loudly.
Then, lowering her voice to a level only Zheng Xuelin and the nearby Lin Lingli and Zhou Yunyun could hear, she softly said to Zheng Xuelin, "What’s wrong? Too many people here, are you afraid to hit back?"
Zheng Xuelin was too enraged to think straight.
His eyes bulged like a cow’s, and Li Xiaoyun feared they’d pop out if he stared any harder.
Is it possible to perform self eyelid surgery?
Li Xiaoyun curled her lip and whispered again, "If you don’t dare, then I’ll continue."
Even if people called her a shrew, as long as she could knock Zheng Xuelin’s face out of shape, she’d consider it worth it.
Too bad her strength wasn’t enough; otherwise, she would’ve knocked out a few of Zheng Xuelin’s teeth.
Her words seemed to stun Zheng Xuelin momentarily.
He looked dazed, unable to react.
While he stood there stunned, Li Xiaoyun backhanded him with another slap.
This time, to hit the other side of Zheng Xuelin’s face for a symmetrical effect, Li Xiaoyun used her left hand.
Li Xiaoyun was very much a right-handed person; she rarely used her left hand for tasks that required strength.
Hence, her left hand didn’t pack as much power as her right.
This left Li Xiaoyun feeling a little unsatisfied and not entirely relieved.
However, it was still plenty to drive Zheng Xuelin mad.
He was slapped twice in a row by Li Xiaoyun in front of everyone!
This wasn’t just about being hit; it was about his pride!
"Li Xiaoyun!" Zheng Xuelin was truly losing it.
Li Xiaoyun shouted loudly, "This slap is for your malicious intent and twisting the truth!"
Zheng Xuelin no longer cared how it might look to hit a woman here.
After being slapped twice by Li Xiaoyun, how could he tolerate it?
Zheng Xuelin’s eyes were red as he raised his hand to hit hard.
"Zheng Xuelin, what do you think you’re doing!" A shout suddenly rang out.
Zheng Xuelin’s hand paused, and he instinctively turned to see President Lin rushing over.
President Lin wanted to strengthen his relationship with Li Xiaoyun properly.
This was someone Zhao Dingli personally took a leave of absence for!
As an employee of Rui Shi, shouldn’t he care about whether Li Xiaoyun was happy at the company?
Were there any difficulties in her work at the company?
He also had to care about her working environment in the company.
It was essential that Li Xiaoyun was at ease in the company and could stay long term.
As long as Zhao Dingli and Li Xiaoyun maintained good relations, as long as Li Xiaoyun was still with the company, there was no concern about not having future collaborations with Changling Association.
President Lin discovered that Li Xiaoyun was in the cafeteria for lunch and silently praised her for her low profile.
No one knew she had such a good relationship with Zhao Dingli until now, and even then, she didn’t let slip a word.
Now that people knew, Li Xiaoyun could still sit calmly and eat in the company’s cafeteria.
That was truly low-key.
She was a capable person indeed!
A true leader, calm in the face of honor and disgrace!
President Lin replayed every possible praise word for Li Xiaoyun in his mind.
And he didn’t feel any of it was an exaggeration.
After all, why hadn’t anyone else shown such capacity to make Zhao Dingli act so anxiously?
If anyone did, he’d praise them the same way!
President Lin, knowing where Li Xiaoyun was, rushed to the cafeteria.
Who’d have thought as soon as he arrived, he’d see Zheng Xuelin raising his hand to hit Li Xiaoyun?
This sight infuriated President Lin.
Never mind a grown man striking a woman.
Didn’t Zheng Xuelin know the person he was taking his anger out on?
This was Li Xiaoyun!
Was she someone he dared to offend?
Lacking even this much insight, Zheng Xuelin was truly incompetent!
Despite being far away and unable to physically stop Zheng Xuelin, President Lin promptly intervened verbally.
Zhou Yunyun and Lin Lingli also took the opportunity to grab Zheng Xuelin’s arm, preventing him from hitting Li Xiaoyun.
Since Zheng Xuelin was in the way, President Lin genuinely couldn’t see Li Xiaoyun’s expression.
But even if he did see it, President Lin would definitely not think badly of Li Xiaoyun.
After all, Li Xiaoyun could do no wrong.
Right now, Li Xiaoyun sneered and said, "Zheng Xuelin, are you stupid?"
"Bitch!" Zheng Xuelin now had completely forgotten he once liked Li Xiaoyun, and cursed out loud.
Li Xiaoyun unaffectedly said, "You openly claimed I have a connection with Zhao Dingli, and no matter whether it’s public or not, who else have you seen having anything to do with Zhao Dingli? Even if it’s a clandestine relationship, it’s still a relationship."
