Chapter 1288 - 1315: Her Darkness 3
The paintings felt extremely ashamed, not expecting Li Tingyan to be this handsome. She had just been insisting that Nianyang was interested in Chen Lv’s looks.
Honestly, Chen Lv is handsome, but in the face of Li Tingyan’s stunning presence, he simply doesn’t hold up.
Nianyang and Li Tingyan left the stunned crowd and went home affectionately, and everyone dispersed after gossiping.
Ni Jia walked up to the disheartened paintings, "I’m sorry, Xiaohua, I couldn’t help you."
The paintings were overwhelmed, "No, no, I should be the one apologizing, Doctor Ni, I have caused you trouble."
Ni Jia shook her head, "We’re all from the clinic, let’s not talk about causing trouble."
The paintings felt more guilty and also very touched, not expecting Ni Jia to befriend her at a time when everyone else was avoiding her.
She couldn’t help but complain softly, "It’s all Chu Nianyang’s fault. If she hadn’t insisted on making a fuss, we wouldn’t be in this terrible situation."
"Alright, some things are fine as long as you know them yourself."
Ni Jia, like a thoughtful elder sister, patted the paintings’ shoulder, "Listen to me, in the future, whenever you see Chu Nianyang, take a detour. Don’t provoke her; she’s very scary. Master Li still pampers her, whatever she says goes, and opposing her won’t end well for you."
The paintings asked curiously, "Doctor Ni, did you have some conflict with Chu Nianyang before?"
Ni Jia sighed, "That’s all in the past. We need to look forward, but I like you and want to share some heartfelt words. You’ve heard Master Li say I was demoted because I had offended Chu Nianyang, and that’s why they dealt with me."
The paintings exclaimed, "What exactly happened? They couldn’t have demoted you for no reason!"
"Actually, it goes like this." Ni Jia said, "I knew Master Li a long time ago; we were good colleagues and friends, even went sailing together. We were young and foolish back then; I had a crush on Master Li. But later, Chu Nianyang appeared; she was prettier, smarter, and more capable, and thus she won Master Li’s heart."
The paintings said indignantly, "How could she do this? You knew Master Li earlier; you two should be the perfect match. Isn’t this stealing love?"
"It’s not exactly like that," Ni Jia said calmly, "After all, Master Li and I never openly talked about it. His interest in Nianyang is understandable. What man can resist a beautiful woman? I bear no grudge; they like each other; I supported them. Besides, now I have Kang Quan, and I’ve long since let go of Master Li. Just pretend you don’t know about this."
The paintings sighed, "Doctor Ni, you’re so noble; how could that Chu Nianyang compare to you!"
Ni Jia said, "But then Nianyang found out I had a crush on Master Li; she was ruthless towards me, framed me, used emotional tricks, causing me to be demoted here."
"What, that’s too much!" The paintings said angrily, "Doctor Ni, Chu Nianyang is so malicious; why don’t you report her? You’re too easy to bully!"
Ni Jia gave a bitter smile, "How to report? She has Master Li backing her; I’m alone. I can only avoid trouble. I’m telling you this for your sake, so you don’t offend Nianyang."
The paintings replied, "Doctor Ni, you’re so considerate of me; I can’t just ignore this. That Chu Nianyang has done so many wrongs; she can’t be allowed to continue prospering. When the opportunity arises, I will surely help you get revenge on her."
