The Evil Villainess' Sweet Love Story

Zhou Lin’s eyes widened. She suddenly looked up at Master Nanshan in disbelief.

Master actually did not speak up for her?

How was this possible!

For so many years, she had always been Master Nanshan’s favorite disciple. No matter what she did, as long as she showed an aggrieved look, Master would unconditionally stand by her side.

But...today, he even asked Xu Wanwan for her opinion.

Who knew if that country bumpkin would spout nonsense and ruin her good deed?

Zhou Lin hurriedly propped herself up, lowered her head, and said in a weak voice, “Master, actually, it’s not a big deal. My relationship with Little Xu is very good. Why don’t we stop pursuing it?”

Without waiting for Zhou Lin to continue, Xu Wanwan directly interrupted, “Sorry, I don’t remember having a good relationship with Miss Zhou.”

“Just now, not only did you mock me, you also maliciously destroyed my things and physically attacked me.”

“Later, when I retaliated, you couldn’t accept it and deliberately fell to the ground. We’re all adults now, and there are many ways to end problems, but there’s no need to act like a child.”

After Xu Wanwan finished speaking, she looked at Master Nanshan, “Whether you believe it or not, this is what happened.”

“Master, this is not what she said at all!”

Zhou Lin was lying on the ground, gnashing her teeth in hatred. She said in a low voice, “Little Xu was clearly unhappy with me, so she slandered me in front of you.”

“Also, I was pushed to the ground by her. You have to believe me.”

When Master Nanshan heard her say the word trust, he was suddenly provoked. “Enough!”

“Zhou Lin, you’ve always been my proudest disciple, but what you’ve done now has disappointed me!”

When Zhou Lin saw Master Nanshan’s attitude toward her, she was completely stunned. “What... happened to me?”

Although she had offended some people in other places over the years, she had always been obedient and docile in front of Master Nanshan. How could she make a mistake?

Master Nanshan looked at her with a distant and cold gaze. “I also didn’t expect you to hide what you did abroad in order to deceive me, so what ‘trust’ are you talking about now?”

“Master, you must have misunderstood! I’m not what you think. I’ve been by your side all these years, and I’ve never done anything out of line!” Zhou Lin hurriedly explained.

Master Nanshan was wary of her in his heart, and it was difficult to get rid of this wariness.

Zhou Lin cursed Xu Wanwan in her heart ten thousand times and swallowed her anger. “Master, even if I did something wrong in the past, I’m innocent this time. Don’t you believe me?”

“Why would Little Xu push you for no reason?”

Master Nanshan was a sensible person. He said coldly, “You’ve never cried in front of me before. If you fell in front of others today, I’m afraid you wouldn’t make a big fuss.”

“If you still don’t feel embarrassed, then continue to lie on the ground and don’t get up!”

Master Nanshan’s last words were already somewhat angry.

Zhou Lin had been by his side for so many years, so he could naturally tell.

She pursed her lips angrily and got up from the ground.

“Master, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have lost my composure in front of you.” In order to regain her position, Zhou Lin had no choice but to lower her head. “I hope you won’t be angry with me, okay?”

After all, they had been master and disciple for so many years. She did not believe that her master would disregard their past friendship.

So what if her master trusted Xu Wanwan this time? There were still many days ahead. She would always have a way to get Xu Wanwan to get out of here.

“Alright, this matter ends here. I hope that the two of you can get along well in the future. Don’t bring your personal feelings here.”

Zhou Lin smiled. “Yes, I will definitely not act on impulse in the future.”

Xu Wanwan looked at her coldly and remained silent.

No one could say for sure what would happen in the future. If Zhou Lin treated her like today, she would not tolerate it.

“No matter what, Little Xu is still your junior sister. Even if she really did something wrong, you should still give in to her.”

When Zhou Lin heard Master Nanshan’s words, she was a hundred times unconvinced, but she still agreed.

“Of course, I will naturally take good care of junior sister.”

She pretended to be friendly, but her gaze toward Xu Wanwan was full of coldness.

“All of you come with me. I have something to announce.”

After leaving the studio, the group came to the meeting room, which was already full of people.

Master Nanshan said with a serious expression, “The design competition that is held once every five years is about to begin. Is everyone ready?”

The design competition was a very valuable proof in the industry. As long as someone wins the design competition, they will have a place in the industry in the future.

However, this competition was not an easy one to win. Many top designers would also sign up to prove their standards, and among the contestants who would participate were very talented. It was very difficult to stand out from the crowd.

“There are five major factions participating in this design competition. There are a few hundred people. If anyone representing the Nanshan faction wins, this winning design will be my reward.”

Master Nanshan picked up the Best Architectural Design Award in his hand and looked at everyone who were present. “I hope you won’t disappoint me.”

Xu Wanwan’s eyes lit up when she saw the design in her master’s hand.

Did this mean that as long as she won the design competition, she would be able to get this design?

What the Li Corporation needed the most right now was this design. If she could successfully get it, she would be able to help Li Jingran.

However, Xu Wanwan gritted her teeth secretly after she thought about it. She had to work hard in order to win the competition for the chance to get the design.

This design was very popular. Xu Wanwan was not the only one who was jealous. Many people were thinking about it.

Xu Yue narrowed her eyes. She was very shrewd in her calculations.

No matter what, she had to find a way to get this design. She had to bring the Xu Corporation back from the dead.

When that time came, the Xu family would have to listen to her obediently.

However, if she were to rely on her own strength, it might be difficult for her to win the competition.

Xu Yue looked at Zhou Lin, and her lips curled into a cold smile.

She had previously discovered that Zhou Lin also hated Xu Wanwan, so she might as well use her to help herself.

After the crowd dispersed, Xu Yue especially went to find Zhou Lin and went straight to the point. “You must also hate Xu Wanwan, right?”

Zhou Lin had a good impression of Xu Yue previously. She lifted her chin slightly and observed the person in front of her.

She saw the unwillingness and stubbornness in Xu Yue’s eyes and suddenly curled her lips. “That’s right, I hate Xu Wanwan.”

She could tell that Xu Yue was just a gentle-looking person on the outside, but there was a strong desire in her eyes.

The more desire a person has, the easier it is to control them.

Xu Yue mustered up her courage and said, “I hate Xu Wanwan too. Since we have someone we hate in common, why don’t we work together?”
