Lu Lian looked at her as she stopped smiling. She sighed and said, "Even if you try, you can't be like her."

One of them frowned, "Who wants to be a shameless person like her, a manizer?"

Lu Lian scoffed and said, "You are fine with having one womanizer as your fiance but you can't stand a manizer. Hypocrisy!"

No one expected Lu Lian to take Wu Suyin's side. From what they had heard, Lu Lian and Wu Suiying didn't go along well when both were studying in the same university in the USA.

"Lu Lian, watch what you say?" the offended woman warned.

"You forget to watch your mouth while bitching about others but when it comes to you, you can't digest it," Lu Lian countered. "What you are talking about her, these so-called friends of yours talk behind your back the same thing I said about your fiance."

Others felt shocked by it and got a glare from their friend who had turned silent.

Lu Lian enjoyed the frozen look on their faces and said, "If you can accept the womanizer then what's wrong about her being manizer. She is talented and successful and doing far better in business like any other business family heir. She has all the rights to live the way she wants. I don't think she being a manizer has hurt any one of you."

"Why are you taking her side when she is about to snatch your man?" one male friend questioned.

"Why should you blame her for that. A man has his brain. If he gets swayed by her, then he is at a fault. Didn't you lose your brain when you let her use you but now she has moved on, you are feeling bitter?" Lu Lian commented.

He felt shocked, "You...how do you know?"

"I guess everyone here knows," Lu Lian replied and he looked at his friends who were silent.

Lu Lian continued, "I respect her guts of living the way she wants and doesn't bother with the people like you."

Everyone felt speechless when they thought Lu Lian must hate Wu Suyin because of their not-so-friendly past and now how Wu Suyin was close to Ming Rusheng.

"Don't you hate her?" someone asked.

"That's none of your business. The ones I hate most are hypocrites and the one who talks behind someone's back. If you have guts, say the same thing on her face and the next day you will see your company facing a problem and your father coming to you asking how you offended Wu Suyin."

The woman gulped and Lu Lain smiled wickedly, "However she is, her power and success can only shut you up so you prefer to talk behind her. Trust me, I will prefer to be a manizer like her instead of being a hypocrite like you," Lu Lian stopped drinking and was ready to move as she talked to Ming Rusheng's assistant who was accompanying her, "I am feeling nauseous standing with these people. I'll be back."

Others could say nothing while Ming Rusheng's assistant nodded as he looked at her proudly. His future lady boss was sure to be so special and no wonder his boss liked only her.

Lu Lian went to the washroom. When she was washing her hands standing in front of the washbasin and was about to turn, a familiar figure blocked her way as she carried the same angelic smile. Lu Lian frowned and stepped aside to leave, the person called her.

"Lu Lian. You seem angry."

"Ms. Wu, I told you to call me in a professional way."

But today I wish to reminisce about our old rivalry days and wish to call you Lu Lian.

"Whatever suits you." Saying, Lu Lian was about to leave but the woman behind her said, "Brother Rusheng is an impressive person. Today don't feel bad if you have to return alone."

Lu Lian turned to look at her, "Daydreaming is not good."

Wu Suying chuckled, "I love your confidence but have you ever seen any woman next to brother Rusheng ever and that too in such an event and holding his hand. I don't remember if he had ever allowed it.

It was the truth and Lu Lain waited to see why she was saying it.

"Still confused," Wu Suyin asked, "My dear, old friend, that means he is interested in me. Don't you know I am a famous manizer? It's easy for me to seduce any man and brother Rusheng is no different."

It angered Lu Lian as she finally lost her cool. She held Wu Suyin's hand and twisted it behind her back and pinned her to the wall with her face almost fattened on the wall.

"I don't care who you are and what you do. Just remember to not count him as 'Any other man'. Your tricks won't work on him. Stay away from him. Next time if I see you touching even a hair strand on his head, I won't hesitate to make you lose your hand and I mean it."

It didn't affect Wu Suyin as she talked, still her face flattened against the wall, "Why ask me to stay away from him? Don't you trust him?"

"He is not the kind to get swayed by the bitches like you. Just keep your filthy hands away from him."

"I see you jealous here, Lu Lian. Why so?"

"I won't tolerate any woman even laying a finger on my man. Only I can do it. So just stay away from him," Lu Lian warned as she twisted Wu Suyin's hand even more but Wu Suyin didn't make any sound in pain as she just smiled.

"Trust me these hands of yours you used to touch him, I am dying to twist them so you would never be able to use them but I am leaving you with a warning." Lu Lian let her go.

Wu Suying strengthened her hand as she looked like she didn't mind what Lu Lian did and commented, "Woman in love is surely the most dangerous creature."
