Female lead’s Delusion of Starting Over

Chapter 10 - Zhang Ziqin's Regret, Male Lead Steps In

Chapter 10: Zhang Ziqin’s Regret, Male Lead Steps In

“Me and Lu Li naturally have our way of getting along; we don’t need Miss Liu to intervene.”

“Heh, so your way of getting along is to take advantage of the funds Lu Li gave you, to build up your so-called reputation as a business queen, and then to heartlessly kick him aside?”

Liu Menghan didn’t hold back, even purposely raising her voice. If it weren’t for the lack of a microphone, she would really love to expose this woman’s true face in front of everyone.

“You…” Zhang Ziqin’s brows furrowed.

“What do you think you are, without Lu Li, what do you have? Those hormone-driven guys treat you as a goddess, but you know what you rely on.” Liu Menghan spoke frankly.

She wanted this woman, who had hurt Lu Li, to experience what Lu Li had gone through.

Using Lu Li’s money to establish her reputation, then kicking Lu Li away after achieving her goals, publicly splashing him with wine in front of a crowd, only to run off with that bastard Ye Chen afterward.

How heartbroken must Lu Li have been at that moment!

Thinking about this, Zhang Ziqin couldn’t accept it; she wanted this woman’s reputation destroyed.

She wanted everyone to know that this woman only had her current reputation because of Lu Li.

“Are you trying to make the Liu family and Zhang family enemies?” Zhang Ziqin’s expression turned cold; having been reborn, of course, she wouldn’t let such a thing happen again.

“Enemies with the Zhang family? I’m afraid that in the end, it might still be Lu Li who will have to intervene!”

Liu Menghan’s eyes were filled with undisguised mockery. She hated this woman’s high and mighty demeanor. Without Lu Li, what does she have? It was Lu Li who raised her to the dazzling status of a business queen.

Yet she threw Lu Li away because of Ye Chen.

Don’t talk about how this woman regretted it later and dealt with Ye Chen.

What good did it do if she had dealt with Ye Chen? Lu Li was already dead, her regret only makes people sick.

Even if in the previous life the two of them teamed up to deal with Ye Chen, she still found this woman nauseating.

“Come to think of it, it’s true. If it weren’t for Lu Li continuously providing funds for the Zhang Corporation, it probably would have been gone long ago!”

“What do you mean ‘it’s true’, it is! It’s only because Lu Li was fooled by this woman, otherwise, where would the Zhang Corporation be today!”

“Even starting from zero, with the funds provided by Lu Li, it should have become a Fortune 500 company by now.”

“Exactly, a billion at a time, a billion at a time, who couldn’t soar!”

“I heard Lu Li also solved many difficulties for the Zhang Corporation.”

“Right, just a month ago, didn’t the Zhang Corporation face a crisis? It was Lu Li who resolved it.”

“Tsk tsk tsk! Really a good man, it’s just a pity…”

“Indeed…”

The way everyone looked at Zhang Ziqin changed; they might not have brought it up, but they probably all forgot.

Zhang Ziqin’s success was clearly a god-making project by Lu Li!

The surrounding whispers were like the coldest knife stabbing into Zhang Ziqin’s heart. Why did she choose to cooperate with Ye Chen in the first place? Wasn’t it because these people said behind her back that she could only survive because of Lu Li?

Why was her previous self angered by such words, cooperating with Ye Chen, hurting Lu Li was something her previous self regretted for life, unable to let go until her dying breath.

“Can’t say a word now? That’s right, I hope you have some self-awareness, don’t take what others give you for granted as your own ability.”

Liu Menghan looked like a victorious phoenix, proudly holding her snow-white neck high, her red dress fluttering. She came here today because she was worried Lu Li would again receive insults from Zhang Ziqin and Lu Ya.

Since Lu Li hasn’t come, who would want to stay in this filthy place any longer!

Even breathing the same air as Zhang Ziqin feels disgusting.

“How interesting!” In a certain corner, a flamboyantly dressed and eye-catching handsome man watched the scene unfold, the corners of his mouth lifting in a mischievous smile.

It seems like even the protagonist has problems, always wearing inappropriate clothes at inappropriate times, as if that’s the only way to highlight his uniqueness.

Ye Chen didn’t expect to come across such drama today.

It really seems like even the heavens are on his side!

Watching Zhang Ziqin, who seemed lost in thought, he lifted the glass in his hand and drained it.

He slowly walked towards Zhang Ziqin; a beauty publicly humiliated is in need of proving herself, and his appearance would be Zhang Ziqin’s opportunity.

Once they strike a deal, how far could acquiring Zhang Ziqin be?

Such a ravishing beauty, he has always coveted her.

Of course, Liu Menghan too, but it’s not the right time yet. Later, relying on his own conquest strategies, he’s not worried Liu Menghan won’t board his ship.

“Public humiliation, being looked at with strange eyes by everyone, really is so uncomfortable!” Zhang Ziqin silently spoke to herself, seemingly understanding what Lu Li had gone through on this day in her previous life.

Another ice-cold knife stabbed into her heart.

Why was her previous self so foolish, why did she say so many things that humiliated Lu Li?

Why did she talk about cooperation with Ye Chen in front of him, without considering Lu Li’s feelings at all?

Her eyes reddening, an endless sorrow churned within her, filled with regret, sadness, pain, all kinds of emotions surged up.

What must have Lu Li felt back then!

Forcing him to understand me, arrogantly thinking Lu Li would always love me, doing things that hurt him again and again, I…

Just then, a voice rang out.

“Miss Zhang Ziqin, why bother listening to some idle chatter? They’re all outsiders, how could they know your capabilities?” This is the time to stand united with her against the enemy, incidentally recognizing her abilities.

“A bunch of nonsensical babble from clueless people shouldn’t affect Miss Zhang Ziqin. Besides, I don’t think Miss Zhang Ziqin would fail without Lu Li.”

Zhang Ziqin’s gaze immediately turned cold; it was this guy, this bastard named Ye Chen, who killed the man she loved most in her previous life, an uncontrollable killing intent seeped out from her heart.

She wouldn’t let Ye Chen go, even killing him once wasn’t enough. The harm Ye Chen caused to Lu Li, an eye for an eye.

“Who are you?”
