Hua Tang was bewildered; she had no idea what Wu Qian was talking about.

Wu Qian sighed and carefully checked their surroundings before she revealed, “The news has already spread throughout the company. They say you’re married, and your husband is a hooligan who’s been in prison! They even said that he was the one who beat up Yin Zhaoyang yesterday. The stories are vivid and colorful; some even proclaim that your husband had just been released not long ago…”

Hua Tang listened and didn’t speak for a long while.

Wu Qian was even more surprised at Hua Tang’s silence. “The rumors can’t be true, right?”

“Yes, I’m married. My husband has indeed been in prison.” Hua Tang was very frank with Wu Qian; she didn’t feel there was a need to hide these facts.

Wu Qian listened while looking at her in disbelief.

“But he treats me very well.” Hua Tang’s voice was loud and clear, without the slightest bit of embarrassment as she continued, “I didn’t say anything about marriage at the beginning, nor did I want to hide it. It’s just that no one has asked, and I can’t very well blurt out ‘I’m married!’ to everyone I meet. Besides, no rule in the company states employees can’t get married.”

Wu Qian frowned, “That’s true, but…”

Hua Tang calmly said, “My husband is a good person. He did end up in jail for fighting, but he hasn’t done those things since we married. The past is in the past; we will walk hand in hand through the present and the future.”

Wu Qian looked at her. To be honest, she didn’t have Hua Tang’s courage. “I admire you,” she said, reaching out and holding Hua Tang’s hand. Only then did she notice it was missing an important detail.

“Why aren’t you wearing a wedding ring?” she asked.

Hua Tang paused; she had married Mu Chi in a hurry and had no extra money to buy a wedding ring. Theirs was a poor wedding without even a ring exchange ceremony.

She didn’t care about the ring. However, she remembered seeing a ring in the box that Mu Chi gave her.

As she contemplated the matter, a sharp voice was heard saying, “Her husband goes to jail whenever he has time. How can he have the money to buy her a ring?”

Hua Tang turned around and saw Bi Ying’er walking over with a few of her posse, looking as though she couldn’t wait to swallow Hua Tang whole.

“You guys should learn from Hua Tang. Her husband fights, goes to jail, smokes, and drinks…But this doesn’t change the fact that he’s a good man and husband…”

Someone chimed in, “I heard that her husband doesn’t even have a proper job. He only knows how to rely on his wife to support him…This is really beyond our ability to learn.”

“No wonder Hua Tang has to work so hard. To sign the bill, she’s willing to climb into bed, as long as the partner’s a man! ”

Bi Ying’er gritted her teeth in anger. When she discovered that Hua Tang’s husband had beaten up Yin Zhaoyang, she was first shocked and then furious.

She wasn’t a fool. Why would Yin Zhaoyang be beaten up if he hadn’t done something out of line? In the end, Yin Zhaoyang was still lying to her!

However, Bi Ying’er could only swallow her pride in silence. Otherwise, she would be so embarrassed! Right now, she had to protect Yin Zhaoyang on the surface, but secretly, she would make Hua Tang regret crossing her path.

Bi Ying’er sneered, “You’ve been working so hard recently. Is it to save money to buy a ring? Oh, that’s right! If your husband can’t afford it, you can find another man. You’re so skilled at dealing with men. Having some trouble signing the bill? You just spread your legs, and the contracts come running.”

“Bi Ying’er!” Hua Tang furiously roared, causing those still laughing to quieten down.

It was the first time they had seen docile Hua Tang become so fierce. They looked at each other in alarmed silence. Only Bi Ying’er stood out as she took on a malicious smile. “What is it?”

Hua Tang trembled.

She kept telling herself rationally that this was the company; there were surveillance cameras here, and she couldn’t be reckless. Bi Ying’er was deliberately provoking her; she would fall into Bi Ying’er’s trap if she made a move.

“Bi Ying’er, as the company’s supervisor, please pay attention to your words and deeds,” Hua Tang delivered the reprimand with a vicious glare.

“As Yin Zhaoyang’s girlfriend, please control your man. My husband was clear; if Yin Zhaoyang dares to harass me again, things won’t end with a simple beating.”

Bi Ying’er’s expression changed, “Are you threatening me?”

“It’s not a threat.” Hua Tang smiled. “Just saying that, although my husband did stupid things in the past, he would do anything to protect me. Unlike some people who may appear sanctimonious, when in reality, their purpose of having a girlfriend is just to get shares and benefits from some uncle. They even slander their girlfriend behind her back…”

“You…” Bi Ying’er had a pretty good guess why Yin Zhaoyang got with her, but Hua Tang’s revelation in front of so many people still hit a sore spot.
