Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 596

Chapter 596: Chapter 596: Where There’s a Mistress, There Will Be Another

Saying goodbye to Chen Huan felt as if everything had changed.

Thinking back to the competition for newcomers that year, Chen Huan came in third, standing right next to Lin Zhiyi.

The two spent some good times together at Xue Man’s Studio.

Little did they know, Chen Huan herself was a huge lie.

As the office door was pushed open, Chen Huan stood up at the sound.

The once plain woman was now voluptuous and luxurious.

A pair of pink diamond earrings with little bunnies dangled from her ears.

Totally out of line with her overall temperament.

When Chen Huan saw Lin Zhiyi, there was no emotion, just a standard smile on her delicately made-up face.

"What a rare guest, when they said you were coming, I thought it was someone with the same name."

Lin Zhiyi exchanged pleasantries politely, "Mr. Chen."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Huan burst out laughing.

"Hahaha, fortunes do change, huh? Never thought those words would come out of your mouth, Lin Zhiyi."

"Could it be that you’ve offended half the industry and have nowhere else to turn, so you’re coming to me?"

Chen Huan seemed to revel in the moment, her lips curling with smug satisfaction.

"Lin Zhiyi, weren’t you the one who loved Xue Man the most? You even helped her plot against me! Why don’t you go beg her now? I certainly can’t help you."

"What? Did she abandon you too?"

Chen Huan leisurely sipped her tea, her eyes gleaming with schadenfreude as she gazed at Lin Zhiyi, hoping to see despair on her face.

However, Lin Zhiyi sat calm and composed, listening to her till she finished.

"Are you done?"

"What...what do you mean?"

Chen Huan frowned, momentarily uncertain of Lin Zhiyi’s intentions.

Lin Zhiyi looked at her, "With or without me, you were the third party in Xue Man’s marriage, your affairs have nothing to do with me."

"I didn’t plot against you; at most, I was just protecting myself."

"Winning over a scumbag doesn’t mean victory, besides, are you really doing well?"

With just three sentences, Chen Huan’s tea spilled onto her white dress.

As if telling her that no matter how clean you dress, you can’t cover up the stains of the past.

Chen Huan slammed the teacup down forcefully, "Lin Zhiyi! If you’re here to cause trouble, I’ll have security escort you out now!"

"You’re the same as before, fronting so well, only to easily break down in the end. Honestly, deep down, you’re still insecure."

Lin Zhiyi casually handed her a tissue.

Chen Huan trembled slightly as she took it, wanting to retort, but only opening her mouth.

Lin Zhiyi poured her some more tea and then poured herself a cup to drink.

"He cheated again, didn’t he? On my way up, an employee in the latest designer set dressed more like the boss lady than you, interrogated me for three minutes to make sure I was here for you before letting me in."

Where there’s a mistress, there’ll be a second, a third, a fourth...

Now Chen Huan is like the former Xue Man, with only the studio’s interests left between her and that man.

Chen Huan chuckled softly at the tea in front of her, "Coming from so far to laugh at me? At least I’m better than Xue Man! I didn’t turn into an alcoholic."

Lin Zhiyi retorted, "Why must you compare yourself with Xue Man? Then do you have to compare yourself with that woman outside next? She wears pink diamonds, so you wear pink diamonds that don’t suit you?"

"Actually, you and Xue Man both know, if it’s not you, it’ll be that woman outside, and after comparing one, there’s another, but in the end, you’ll just end up losing yourself."

That’s how Xue Man ended up.

Pretending to be carefree in ending a marriage, but in reality confining herself within it.

Chen Huan is on the brink too.

She covered her earrings with one hand, indignantly saying, "Enough! Lin Zhiyi, I don’t want to hear your preaching! Get out!"

Lin Zhiyi set down her teacup and slowly stood up.

"That mistress is a newcomer your husband is promoting, right? Just like when he placed you in Xue Man’s Studio."

"..."

Chen Huan pursed her lips, her hands clenching tightly.

Lin Zhiyi continued, "Xue Man’s studio released new items, and usually you’d follow suit, why haven’t you moved this season? Do you think their new items can’t be copied? Your husband probably wants you to use that woman’s design for new items, doesn’t he?"

By this point in the conversation, Chen Huan should realize she came prepared.

Lin Zhiyi didn’t spell it out, turning to leave.

After taking two steps, Chen Huan looked up and called out to her.
