As soon as the truth came out, Xu Qingwan was scolded by the entire network. Netizens scolded Xu Qingwan just as harshly as they scolded Ye Bei.

"It's pitiful. After liking her for so many years, Lu Tingyan just doesn't have any feelings for her at all. No wonder she slandered Ye Bei so much on the Internet. Jealousy makes people jealous, let alone a lady from a wealthy family like her!"

"Yes, she is a rich lady but she is not as comfortable as me. She wants to snatch Lu Tingyan from Ye Bei all day long. I am afraid she must be crazy."

"Haha, you're really surprised by what you've seen. This is the first time I've seen someone who wants to steal someone's husband and confidently accuses her of being a third party. I'm really worried for Ye Bei."

"If we talk about viciousness, it has to be Xu Qingwan. A little star like Ye Bei is at her mercy!"

Netizens made all kinds of sarcastic remarks, and Xu Qingwan was so angry that her lips and teeth were trembling as she watched this scene.

She put down the mouse, stood up from the table, and walked angrily towards Xu's father's study.

In the study, Xu's father was extremely anxious because his investment had been withdrawn and the company was about to face a major funding crisis.

Father Xu faced the window, holding his phone nervously, and spoke in an anxious voice with a hint of tentativeness, "Well, ask Tingyan if he is satisfied with Qingwan's statement that I just asked him to clarify online? If he is satisfied, can our investment..."

"Dad! Give me your phone. You don't even know what people on the Internet are saying about your daughter. Are you so willing to see me being insulted by netizens?" Xu Qingwan pushed open the door and rushed to the door of Xu's father's study.

Father Xu was interrupted and glanced at Xu Qingwan with a fierce look. He half-covered his phone with his palm and continued, "Can our cooperation continue?"

Xu Qingwan immediately stopped and stood there blankly.

Special Assistant Chen: "I'm sorry, Mr. Xu, Mr. Lu said that you need to completely satisfy Mr. Lu. Those vague statements on the Internet cannot impress Mr. Lu."

Special Assistant Chen: "As for the investment, our President Lu said that you are all businessmen, and he doesn't want to suffer any losses, but it all depends on President Xu's performance."

Father Xu continued, "Can I have a few words with Ting Yan? If he wants to do something, he can just tell me directly."

Special Assistant Chen: "Well...our President Lu is very busy and has no time to answer President Xu's call. If President Xu has nothing else to do, I will hang up."

After hanging up the phone, Father Xu looked out the window, his jaw clenched with teeth, then suddenly turned around and angrily threw the phone on the table.

"Dad..." Xu Qingwan obviously noticed that the atmosphere was not right, and called him Father Xu in a low voice.

Father Xu turned around and looked at her coldly, but said nothing.

"Dad, please give my phone back to me. You used my Weibo account to post those clarification messages. Now everyone is scolding me, and I can't continue to play the piano in China." Xu Qingwan complained.

Father Xu took a deep breath, tugged at his tie, his expression eased a little, and waved at Xu Qingwan, "Come here."

Seeing that there was still room for discussion, Xu Qingwan walked over slowly, "Dad, it's not as serious as you think. Brother Tingyan has to take care of the face of the two families. Besides, I didn't say anything online. It was the netizens who misunderstood. Can you blame me for that?"

She was still making excuses for herself, and still believed that Lu Tingyan would not take any action against them, and would not mind the things that happened on the Internet because of her.

The veins on Mr. Xu's forehead bulged. He stared at his most beloved daughter, raised his hand and slapped her hard.

A slap hit Xu Qingwan on the face, and she was completely stunned.

"Dad, you...why did you hit me?" She came to her senses and covered her face with her hands, saying aggrievedly.

"Do you know that it's because of you stirring up trouble online and provoking Ye Bei that Lu Tingyan is now going to withdraw the Xu family's investment. Once the investment is withdrawn, our Xu Group will be finished." Father Xu pointed at her nose and said angrily.

"We are all going to have to wait for the northwest wind!"

"How many times have I told you that you can't get involved in the relationship between Lu Tingyan and Ye Bei? You just won't listen. Are you going to tear our family apart?"

Xu Qingwan widened her eyes and trembled as she said, "It's impossible. How could Brother Tingyan be so ruthless? Uncle Lu and you, Dad, had such a good relationship back then. How could Brother Tingyan be..."

Her mind told her that what Father Xu said was true. She still had illusions about Lu Tingyan and felt that Lu Tingyan would not be so ruthless.

Father Xu said coldly, "What's impossible? Lu Tingyan is Lu Tingyan, his father is his father, and the Xu family has been on the decline over the years. If Lu Tingyan hadn't helped us a few times because of our past friendship, our Xu family wouldn't be where we are today."

"You are abroad every day, how can you know the current situation of the Xu family?"

Xu Qingwan's inner dream was shattered. She stood there in a daze, tears falling from her eyes, "But..."

"If he really has feelings for you, he wouldn't force you again and again. You should wake up." Father Xu found her distraught look a bit unreasonable.

"Just stay in your room these days. I'll send you abroad when things are over." Father Xu said helplessly.

Xu Qingwan came back to her senses and stared at Father Xu, "I won't! Dad, I just returned home, and you want me to leave again?"

"I'll let your mother go with you." Father Xu glanced at Mother Xu who came in quietly.

"Dad, I don't want to. I don't want to go abroad anymore." Xu Qingwan cried.

Father Xu: "If you don't go abroad, do you want to harm our entire Xu family? Haven't you paid enough for your Xu family?"

"I'll go and beg Brother Ting Yan, Brother Ting Yan..."

Father Xu interrupted her in a deep voice, "Shut up, you think if you go to ask Lu Tingyan, he will see you, who do you think you are, in Lu Tingyan's eyes, you are just a lady of the Xu family, without the Xu family you are nothing!"

"Take her back to her room and don't let her out without my permission."

After Mr. Xu finished speaking, Mother Xu helped Xu Qingwan walk outside.

Just as she reached the door, Xu Qingwan suddenly pushed Xu's mother away, rushed to the table while Xu's parents were not paying attention, picked up the mobile phone, and directly dialed Lu Tingyan's number, but there was only a busy tone on the other end.

Xu's mother wanted to step forward to stop them, but Xu's father held her back.

She called twice before finally getting through.

"Ting Yan..." she said anxiously.

The person on the other side raised his voice and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu is in a meeting and is not available right now."

"I'm Xu Qingwan. Tell Lu Tingyan that I want to see him. I..."

Special Assistant Chen: "Oh, Miss Xu, Mr. Lu has something to say to you before he leaves."

A glimmer of hope ignited in Xu Qingwan's heart. It seemed that Lu Tingyan did not completely ignore her. At least he had someone leave a message for her.

"What?"

Special Assistant Chen said, "Boss Lu said that adults should be responsible for their own actions. He also told you to get out and never show up in front of him again. He won't see you."

When Xu Qingwan heard those words, her heart was completely broken. She was in so much pain that she couldn't breathe. She took a step back and her phone slipped and fell to the ground.

The whole person seemed as if his soul had been sucked out of him.

"Why are you doing this? I've already told you that Lu Tingyan doesn't like you at all." Seeing her embarrassed look, Father Xu sighed and quickly asked Mother Xu to take her back to her room.
