Chapter 574

"Come on. Let's go get dinner first," said Bai Tingxin. As soon as Qin Lianyi heard that there was food, she perked up immediately. One of the advantages of dating Bai Tingxin was that she could eat a lot of things that she previously could not. Once out of the cinema, Bai Tingxin drove Qin Lianyi to a famous restaurant. Qin Lianyi had only seen the restaurant in a gourmet magazine before and had never gotten the chance to eat there. Nevertheless, after coming to date Bai Tingxin, they dined there several times. The food in the restaurant suited her tastes rather well. Upon entering the restaurant, Bai Tingxin asked for a private room. Qin Lianyi sat in the private room and ignored the Gao Jingshan posters she had gotten that day. Instead, she browsed her phone. Not long after, Qin Lianyi's face took a ghastly expression. "What's the matter?" asked Bai Tingxin. Qin Lianyi said angrily, "These people are going too far. Do they know the truth? It's true that you only need one mouth to create rumors while denying them takes great effort." Bai Tingxin grabbed Qin Lianyi's phone from her hand and looked at it. A video was being played on the screen of Qin Lianyi's phone. It was a video of Ling Yiran and Ling Luoyin's earlier conflict. From the point of view in the video, it seemed like Ling Yiran had pushed Ling Luoyin away on purpose. Accompanied by Ling Luoyin's pitiful performance, it made many viewers take her side; they accused Ling Yiran of being "mean" and "spiteful". While some of Ling Luoyin's fans added fuel to the fire in the comments, some even exposed Ling Yiran's imprisonment, accusing her of being a murderer online. Some people even believed that Ling Yiran was the other woman who had stepped between Gu Lichen and Ling Luoyin's relationship. Otherwise, why did Gu Lichen care more about Ling Yiran instead of his girlfriend? "Yinyin couldn't have worse luck to have such a sister." "Does she still want to be the crown prince's girlfriend after having been to prison? She must be crazy for being that power-hungry!" "Don't cry, Yinyin!" Qin Lianyi almost threw up after seeing everyone comforting Ling Luoyin and vilifying Ling Yiran. She had known that someone would publish the conflict on the internet, but she had not expected it to happen so soon. Not to mention, the reproaches against her best friend were so overwhelming. She did not believe that no one was adding fuel to the fire behind it. That b*tch Ling Luoyin. Could she have deliberately hired spammers online in an attempt to crush Yiran with the public’s opinion? Qin Lianyi guessed the possibilities of it, and the more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed to be. "That b*tch Ling Luoyin is purposely trying to make Yiran's life miserable. What did Yiran do to her? Yiran couldn't have worse luck to have a little sister like her," Qin Lianyi said angrily. By the time the food arrived, Qin Lianyi had lost her appetite. "You can rest assured that your friend has nothing to lose. This Ling Luoyin won’t be smug for long," Bai Tingxin said calmly. Qin Lianyi was stunned. "What do you mean?" "Your friend has Yi Jinli to protect her. What do you have to worry about? As for Ling Luoyin..." Bai Tingxin gave a meaningful smile. "Maybe it won't be long before she gets off the throne as his girlfriend." Qin Lianyi immediately perked up when Bai Tingxin said this. "Do you mean Gu Lichen will break up with her?" "It's just a speculation," replied Bai Tingxin. "Then, explain why you think so," Qin Lianyi said with an open mind.
