I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 540 Seeds of Doubt
Inside the villa.

Zhuang Daoyuan, with his legs crossed, was idly playing on his phone in the living room. When he saw Zhuang Qing come in, he said with a grin, "Sis, Dad hasn't been taking care of you for a long time. Why are you back so early?"

The agreement between Zhuang Dasheng and Wei Lin was no longer valid; Zhuang Daoyuan would have preferred that she and Wei Lin live together.

"You've finished eating, why aren't you coming back?" Zhuang Qing sneered, disdainfully mocking, "Do you think I'm like you? All you do all day is play!"

Zhuang Daoyuan chuckled dryly and said, "I haven't gone out to play in a long time!"

He did indeed restrain himself for a long time, no longer spending his days hanging out outside, and began to seriously focus his energy on the company. Unfortunately, his limited abilities prevented him from achieving anything significant.

"You have a lot of messy friends outside, have you heard anything about Wei Lin?" Zhuang Qing suddenly asked.

Zhuang Daoyuan was taken aback: "Which aspect are you referring to?"

Zhuang Qing: "Regarding men and women!"

Zhuang Daoyuan chuckled and said nonchalantly, "Sister, have you heard some rumors? A lot of people outside like to spread nonsense. If you hear anything, don't believe it!"

Zhuang Qing narrowed her eyes slightly and said coldly, "You've heard about it too?"

"Is it about the female boss of an advertising company? Sis, I actually know about this. That female boss is your husband's ex-girlfriend, but they broke up a long time ago!"

Zhuang Daoyuan briefly recounted the information he had obtained from the old man that morning, and then said, "My brother-in-law has one bad point: he's too sentimental. Even after the breakup, he still found some clients for her."

Zhuang Qing said coldly with a stern face, "Next time you hear news like this, remember to tell me immediately! You need to figure out who your real sister is!"

Zhuang Daoyuan kept saying "Oh" repeatedly.

……

"Linxi Advertising Company, Lin Nanxi".

Back in her room, Zhuang Qing frowned deeply and said with pursed lips, "Why are all his business partners young and beautiful women? And he even takes such good care of his ex-girlfriend after they broke up!"

As she whispered, Zhuang Qing scrolled through her tablet, searching for information related to Qing Que.

Hua Hongshan's beautiful photos appeared frequently in the messages, making her take a few more glances.

Her unusual behavior today wasn't due to anything Han Ying said, nor did it have anything to do with Lin Nanxi.

Because Qingque has been promoting itself a lot recently and the results have been surprisingly good, and because she also learned from the old man about Huaxing of Laiyi Clothing, who is also an old-timer in the clothing industry in Linjiang City, she paid special attention to it.

Then she saw Hua Hongshan's beautiful photos, and the thought of Wei Lin spending so much time with her discussing work made her think a little more.

In addition, someone sent her several messages from an unknown number, implying that Wei Lin and Hua Hongshan were not a couple.

I'll try to go take a look tomorrow when I have some free time.

Zhuang Qing secretly made up her mind.

Like her, Hua Hongshan was also from a wealthy family and graduated from a prestigious foreign university. She was beautiful and had a great figure, making her a formidable competitor.

……

December 5th, Monday.

Affection level: 45632/50000.

Life Energy: 1770/5000.

At 9:30 a.m., Qingque Clothing.

The new receptionist, seeing Zhuang Qing, who was tall and had an intimidating aura, quickly approached her, smiling broadly, and said, "Beautiful lady, who are you looking for? Do you have an appointment?"

"My name is Zhuang Qing. I'd like to ask if you offer customized services? Your boss's name is Hua Hongshan, right? Is she here?"

Miss Zhuang said gracefully, "Tailor-made? We don't think we offer that service, but I can ask our boss! Just a moment!"

The receptionist hurried inside.

Soon, she came back excitedly, smiling, and said, "Miss Zhuang, President Hua asked me to take you there!"

Zhuang Qing nodded slightly.

A moment later, in Hua Hongshan's office, the two women sat facing each other.

"Hello Ms. Zhuang, I am Hua Hongshan, Wei Lin's partner. I didn't expect you to come to the company."

Suppressing her discomfort, Hua Hongshan greeted him with a fake smile, saying, "If you want a custom-made style, just tell Wei Lin, and we'll find a way to meet your request."

Zhuang Qing said calmly, "He is him, and I am me. I don't want to trouble him with official matters."

"Understood." Hua Hongshan smiled insincerely again, then asked very seriously, "Miss Zhuang, do you have any special requirements for Qingque's clothing?"

Zhuang Qing didn't rush to speak, but quietly observed her.

Hua Hongshan is the same.

After a long pause, Zhuang Qing said indifferently, "President Hua, you know who I am, right?"

Hua Hongshan smiled and nodded: "The young lady of Qifeng Hat Industry, our CEO Wei's girlfriend."

"Okay, then I won't beat around the bush." ​​Zhuang Qing took out her phone and went straight to the point, handing Hua Hongshan the several text messages she had received.

Filled with doubt, Hua Hongshan frowned as she looked at the message from an unknown number.

An unknown phone number reveals to Zhuang Qing that the relationship between Qingque's two bosses is not simple, and explains that Wei Lin's reason for investing heavily in Qingque is to take advantage of Hua Hongshan.

She also mentioned that the two went on a business trip to Shanghai together and stayed at the same hotel, implying that they had a physical relationship.

Many things inside felt as if she had witnessed them firsthand. No one who wasn't an insider at Qingque or someone familiar with her and Wei Lin could possibly know them so clearly.

"I think I know who posted it!"

Hua Hongshan explained with a cold face, "My company used to have a manager named Jiang Ze. I originally valued him very much, but unfortunately he was incompetent and did some dishonorable things, so I fired him."

“Miss Zhuang, it’s highly likely that this person is spreading rumors and trying to maliciously damage my relationship with Wei Lin.”

"Wei Lin and I are simply business partners, not what you think. That's my answer!"

Hua Hongshan said firmly.

After saying that, she handed the phone to Zhuang Qing, adopting an attitude of being upright and having nothing to hide.

Zhuang Qing stared intently at her, her eyes gleaming with an unsettling light, and asked again, "When you two were on your business trip to Shanghai, did you go together? Did you stay at the same hotel? Did you even drink together?"

Hua Hongshan nodded: "Yes!"

Zhuang Qing frowned and said calmly, "Okay, I understand."

Her woman's intuition told her something was amiss. She sensed something unusual in Hua Hongshan's expression and behavior, and still suspected that the two were not a couple.

Afterwards, the two women chatted about other trivial matters, and then Zhuang Qing got up and left.

No sooner had she left than Hua Hongshan dialed Wei Lin's number, suppressing her displeasure as she snapped, "Miss Zhuang has come looking for us, suspecting our relationship is ambiguous! Wei Lin, please don't bring your private affairs into our work!"
