"I never provoked you; you stole my endorsement first," Meng Qi's heart skipped a beat, her voice dropping slightly.
Could it be that she already knew about the Jin family's affairs?
A few days ago, she heard that the Su family had an incident, and Qin Xuelan had been completely expelled from the Qin family. Had she sold her out?
"Whether you provoked me or not, you know best," Yin Xi glanced at her coldly.
"You've had your sights set on Qin Si Ye for a long time. Don't think I don't know about the things you've done in private.
And what about the Jin family's affairs? Were you and your assistant involved?
Was it your conspiracy to tamper with Grandpa Jin's medicine?"
Upon hearing her words, Meng Qi gained confidence, realizing Yin Xi didn't know the truth.
"You suspect us without any evidence; be careful, I'll sue you for defamation."
"Alright. Go ahead and sue. I was just about to suggest the police reinvestigate the matter," Yin Xi looked at her dismissively.
However, even if they reinvestigated, it would still be difficult to find evidence.
The main reason was that their actions were too meticulous, leaving no room for loopholes.
But the thought of being kidnapped because of this incident, and Yin Xi Si Ye being injured a second time, filled her with rage.
Her statement just now was primarily intended as a warning.
Hearing this, the two couldn't help but be startled and exchanged glances.
Just then, a mother and son walked over from ahead.
The little boy suddenly clutched his stomach and said, "Mom, my stomach hurts a little."
"Ah? Could it be something you ate this morning that upset your stomach?" The boy's mother paused, her expression tense as she took his hand.
Upon seeing this, Yin Xi's eyes flashed quickly. She walked forward and bent down, looking at the little boy. "Little friend, your stomach hurts, right? I have a way to help you."
As she spoke, she pointed at Meng Qi. "Look at this auntie; she's the spokesperson for that new children's anti-diarrhea medicine launched on television. Go ask her for help; perhaps she has that medicine with her."
The mother and son both looked up at Meng Qi.
Instantly, the little boy exclaimed, "Mom, it really is this auntie! I've seen her in TV commercials. Let's hurry and ask her for help."
"Okay," the boy's mother recognized Meng Qi as well and quickly pulled him forward. "Miss Meng, do you happen to have that medicine with you? Could you help my child? How much will it cost? I'll pay you right now."
Meng Qi's hands clenched so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh. She glared fiercely at Yin Xi, forcing a smile as she looked at the mother and son.
"I'm sorry, but I don't think I can help you. I don't have it with me right now."
The boy's mother's face showed a hint of disappointment. Supporting her son, she continued to ask, "Then, where can we buy it?"
Bai Lin's brows furrowed. She stepped forward and replied, "It's available in all major pharmacies. Hurry and go buy it."
"Okay, thank you!" The boy's mother was about to pull him towards the elevator when he suddenly broke free, clutching his stomach and saying with a pained expression,
"Mom, I really... I really can't hold on anymore. Let's... let's go to the restroom first."
"Okay, okay, first the restroom, first the restroom." As the boy's mother passed Yin Xi, she couldn't help but cast a grateful glance her way.
Yin Xi watched their retreating figures, her suppressed laughter escaping her lips.
"Yin Xi, you're truly insidious and vicious. You deliberately want to embarrass me, don't you?" The pain in her feet continued to assail her, and Meng Qi's body trembled slightly.
Yin Xi turned back and smiled at her. "Miss Meng, is there something wrong with your intelligence? How can this be considered making things difficult for you? I'm helping you promote your product and increase your visibility. To be precise, it's a thank-you for speaking up for me last time at the Jin residence. Truly, good intentions are met with ingratitude."
The last two sentences should be enough for Meng Qi and Bai Lin to savor.
Meng Qi felt she must have forgotten to check the almanac before leaving home today, as she had encountered Yin Xi and was outmaneuvered at every turn. This feeling made her extremely uncomfortable and unacceptable. She had to make a comeback.
Just as she was about to bring up Qin Xiuzhi suppressing Yin Xi, the phone in Yin Xi's bag suddenly rang. She took it out, glanced at it, and answered immediately.
"Hello? Si Ye."
