Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bei Qingqing was stunned. She was not stupid.
Seeing the look on Lu Yao’s ashen face, she was not here to have a friendly chat. However, it was impossible for her to just ignore Lu Yao, right?
Thinking of this, Bei Qingqing braced himself and walked over.

Lu Yao raised her head and looked at the woman in front of her arrogantly. Her tone was very unfriendly. “Do you know why I called you over?”
Bei Qingqing’s scalp went numb. What else could it be? It was all Chen Jiazhi’s fault for being so reckless in front of Lu Yao. This woman was like a jealous spirit. No one could withstand her jealousy.

Bei Qingqing pretended to be confused and shook her head.
Lu Yao sneered. “You and Brother Jiazhi seemed to be very intimate just now.”
Bei Qingqing said lightly, “How could that be? I was just helping him adjust his back. You saw it too. He asked me to adjust it. Otherwise, why would I want to get close to him?”

Lu Yao gritted her teeth and glared at Bei Qingqing.
“I’m warning you. You’re just a maid by Brother Jiazhi’s side! Don’t think about flying to the top and becoming a phoenix. When you have time, go look in the mirror and see if you’re worthy of him.”
“I’m not thinking of climbing up to the top.” Bei Qingqing was not angry. What Lu Yao said was not wrong. She was indeed like a maid by Chen Jiazhi’s side.
“Humph, I hope so. Don’t step over the line!”Lu Yao warned, “I’m telling you, I’m the only one that can be the future First Lady of the Chen Family!”
“Ah, right, right, right.” Bei Qingqing did not want to continue this argument with her.
Besides, she did not intend to fight with anyone, and marrying Chen Jiazhi was not her intention, to begin with. She really wanted to tell Lu Yao right now that she and Chen Jiazhi were only in a fake marriage and it would not threaten her position. However, she could not say it out loud.
“You, you, you! What kind of attitude do you have?” Lu Yao’s anger flared up as soon as she heard Bei Qingqing’s perfunctory tone of voice.
1
Bei Qingqing was also a little impatient, and she directly retorted, “I’ve already said it many times, Miss Lu. I’m not thinking of climbing over your head, nor do I have any intention of stepping over the line! Don’t you understand, Miss Lu?”
Lu Yao stomped her feet in anger. No one had dared to speak to her like that. Even in the Lu Family, the entire family had to give in to her.
1
Now, this insensible maid actually dared to speak to her like that? Just because she had Chen Jiazhi’s favor?
“You! You don’t know what’s good for you!”
Lu Yao was so embarrassed that she flew into a rage. She raised her hand as if she was about to slap Bei Qingqing.
Fortunately, Bei Qingqing was quick-witted and quickly grabbed Lu Yao’s hand. Then, she raised her other hand and swung it at Lu Yao’s face.
Pa!
A crisp sound rang in the corridor. Lu Yao’s eyes widened. Before she could retaliate, she saw a familiar figure in the distance from the corner of her eye.
The corner of her mouth curled up into a smile, and then she used the momentum to fall to the ground.
“Aiya!” Lu Yao cried out loud, and she felt secretly proud of herself. If Chen Jiazhi saw her being beaten, he would definitely feel sorry for her. Maybe she could even take the opportunity to get rid of this troublesome maid.
Bei Qingqing looked at Lu Yao, who was lying on the ground, and then looked at her own hand.
It could not be that bad, right? Although the slap just now was mixed with some anger and a little bit of strength, it should not be so bad as to send her falling to the ground.
A second later, she had the answer to her question.
Chen Jiazhi appeared from the corner, pushing himself on the wheelchair. His face was cold as if he had seen everything.
Bei Qingqing held her forehead with a wry smile. It turned out that Lu Yao had was putting on a show for Chen Jiazhi.
