Sun Jing had been in a good mood lately. Perhaps it was because she had witnessed Fiona’s antics on the last business trip, and it seemed that Mr. Pei had cut ties with her. Fiona hadn’t been seen in the office recently, and Mr. Pei hadn’t mentioned her either.

Sun Jing paid close attention to Pei Shi’s schedule, which was packed tightly, suggesting he had no time for any affairs. Maybe the recent scandal involving Ms. Bai Tao had caught Mr. Pei’s attention, making him realize the importance of cherishing the person in front of him and returning to his true love?

In any case, Sun Jing observed for a while and found that without Fiona, Pei Shi had been quite well-behaved. However, Mr. Pei’s return to self-discipline didn’t stop some people from stirring up trouble. Shortly after Mr. Pei filed a lawsuit against the rumors involving Ms. Bai Tao, the news about Pei Shi and Huang Yueran spread like wildfire last night! These sensational reports even brazenly claimed that Mr. Pei had divorced!

The uninformed public might not know, but Sun Jing had something to say about this. Although Mr. Pei had been involved with Fiona, there was indeed nothing going on with Huang Yueran. During several meetings with Huang Yueran’s team, Sun Jing had been present, and Mr. Pei’s conduct was impeccable. He didn’t even have Huang Yueran’s private contact information, let alone any intimate interactions during their few meetings.

Sure enough, when Sun Jing arrived at work this morning, she received a task from Assistant Yuan—to communicate with Huang Yueran’s team. However, judging by the content Sun Jing had to deliver, it was more of a warning…

Mr. Pei had already sent a legal notice, suing all the marketing accounts and media outlets spreading rumors about him and Huang Yueran. He was also preparing to deal with Huang Yueran’s team for exploiting his name. Despite their pleas and guarantees, Mr. Pei proceeded with the contract termination, paid the penalty, and replaced the spokesperson.

There are no walls that don’t leak. As a popular star, Huang Yueran had many rivals, and the news quickly spread. Even though Huang Yueran’s team tried to clarify that it was just baseless gossip by paparazzi and there was nothing more to their relationship, and the failed collaboration was due to other considerations, the industry insiders knew the truth. Trying to gain fame by associating with a married man backfired, and losing the endorsement was a major embarrassment.

Because of Pei Shi’s decisive handling, the CP (couple pairing) fans of Bai Tao and him started to become active online again—

“Mr. Pei is a true wife-protector! Please, marketing accounts, leave our Bai Tao and Mr. Pei alone!”

“Mr. Pei and Bai Tao are locked together! The couple that always brings sweetness!”

“This is textbook handling, kudos to Mr. Pei for the quick and decisive action!”

…

Sun Jing looked at these public opinions and felt a bit melancholic. Mr. Pei was a highly successful businessman, so he was extremely strict about input-output ratios and cost control. Yet this time, he didn’t hesitate to pay the penalty to show his stance. She initially thought Mr. Pei had awakened, but…

That afternoon, just after dealing with Huang Yueran’s matter, the long-unseen vixen Fiona reappeared!

“Jingjing, I’m back.” After a while, the vixen looked even more dazzling, wearing the latest Dior show collection. She flicked her hair and gave Sun Jing a smile.

Though reluctant to admit it, Sun Jing empathized with Pei Shi at that moment—why bother having an affair with Huang Yueran when there’s such a vixen right here? It wasn’t necessary!

However, thinking of her idol Bai Tao being kept in the dark, Sun Jing felt low. She had once been confident in her ability to deal with mistresses, but seeing Mr. Pei’s indulgence towards Fiona, she lost her confidence…

This woman came and went as she pleased, almost treated like the lady of the house! Mr. Pei, being so dedicated to his work, might not even realize it, but he always unconsciously glanced towards Fiona’s seat every time he left the office.

Judging by the current progress, the two were probably very close. Sun Jing responsibly speculated that Mr. Pei’s swift warning to Huang Yueran wasn’t for Bai Tao but to please this adept little vixen.

Especially now, as the vixen sat at her seat, focused on her phone. Sun Jing sneaked a peek and found that Fiona was indeed looking at news about Huang Yueran, her eyes bright with excitement, cheeks flushed, and a smile on her lips. Beautiful though she was, Sun Jing felt she radiated the triumph of a petty, scheming individual!

Although Sun Jing once had the fervor to defend Bai Tao, she now realized she couldn’t handle this high-level mistress.

After much contemplation, Sun Jing took out her phone and decided to send a private message on Weibo to her beloved idol, Ms. Bai Tao.

Such a talented, elegant, and graceful Ms. Bai Tao shouldn’t be kept in the dark! She deserved to know the truth!
