C68 He Threatened Lee Mingshan and When Zhang Xinrui Returned She Was Misunderstood
"I was wrong! I was wrong! Please, let me go!" Lee Mingshan pleaded instinctively.
His gold-rimmed glasses had been knocked off, and his face was red from being hit.
He knelt on the ground, hands clasped together in supplication.
Seeing him like this, Lin Dong felt a wave of speechlessness.
The guy's actions were too practiced; it seemed this wasn't his first time in such a predicament—a habitual offender, no doubt.
How many girls had fallen prey to his schemes?
Han Qingxue stood up.
With her years of experience in the workplace, she handled the act with ease and grace.
Besides, Lee Mingshan was the type whose gaze would freeze at the sight of a beautiful woman.
The plan she and Lin Dong had concocted went off without a hitch.
Lee Mingshan was utterly bewildered.
Fear gripped him, mainly because Lin Dong had already given him a beating the night before, which he had just managed to conceal with foundation.
And now, he'd been hit again.
With his guilty conscience, he was too scared to protest the beating.
Lin Dong said, "Lee Mingshan, you're despicable. You've just dumped your ex-girlfriend and now you're preying on other girls."
Lee Mingshan looked up sharply.
He could barely make out Lin Dong's silhouette.
But that voice was unmistakably familiar!
It was the same voice that had scolded and beaten him the previous night, almost turning him into a mess.
In a panic, Lee Mingshan scrambled for his glasses and put them on.
His vision cleared.
He immediately saw Lin Dong looking at him with a stern expression.
"It's you!?" Lee Mingshan shrieked, his face contorted with terror.
He hadn't expected to run into Lin Dong here.
"What, you think you can dine here and I can't?" Lin Dong said, standing tall and looking down at Lee Mingshan.
Lee Mingshan involuntarily ducked.
He didn't dare to talk back.
Then, with a look of sheer panic, he said to Lin Dong, "Brother, this is all a misunderstanding. I swear I had no intention of messing with your girlfriend!"
As Lee Mingshan spoke, he appeared utterly pitiable.
He was terrified that Lin Dong might strike him again.
Whenever he caught sight of Lin Dong, the pain where he had been hit seemed to throb uncontrollably!
"A misunderstanding? Bullshit!"
Lin Dong gave Lee Mingshan a look of contempt and said, "I've figured out exactly what kind of person you are! And just so you know, the woman you were dining with is my teacher. You'd better come clean about your intentions soon, or I'll expose all your dirty laundry online for the world to see, and you can enjoy your newfound fame!"
"What?"
Shock filled Lee Mingshan's eyes.
He hadn't anticipated the nature of the relationship between Lin Dong and Zhang Xinrui!
He had plans to charm Zhang Xinrui and use her status to establish himself in Jiangyang City!
But Lin Dong's words immediately dashed all his schemes.
Lin Dong had seen through him!
If Lin Dong shared this with Zhang Xinrui, his life would be over in an instant!
Should the truth about Lee Mingshan defrauding his ex-girlfriend come to light, he wouldn't be able to remain at his current company.
And if his misdeeds were broadcast online, even more people would learn of them.
Indeed, as Lin Dong suspected, he had interacted with many girls and cheated more than just one.
If his history as a scoundrel became public knowledge, and the defrauded girls took legal action against him, he could end up behind bars for years!
His entire future was at stake!
Contemplating the repercussions, Lee Mingshan's heart pounded with fear.
He hastily bowed to Lin Dong, ready to spill his plans.
Just then, a voice interrupted: "Lin Dong, what are you up to?!"
Lin Dong turned to see Zhang Xinrui had come back!
She approached with an icy demeanor, glanced at Lee Mingshan, then turned to Lin Dong and demanded, "Did you hit him? Explain yourself! If you don't clarify things right now, I won't let this go!"
