After a wealthy woman went bankrupt, her live-in husband became her sugar daddy.

After hearing Xiaoyu's words, Lao Mo's wife once again launched an attack on me, disregarding her image.

Just then, Lao Mo arrived at work and, seeing a crowd gathered at the entrance, squeezed his way in.

Just then, I saw his wife making a move against me.

Old Mo quickly stepped forward to separate the two of us, and then explained, "Wife, what are you doing? You've misunderstood. Gu Mo and I aren't in that kind of relationship."

But at this point, Lao Mo's wife wouldn't listen to any of that, and just thought that Lao Mo was deliberately protecting me.

In her eyes, I was already the third party between the two of them.

Old Mo's wife became even angrier, hitting Old Mo while tearfully accusing him.

The incident at the company entrance was captured on film by reporters.

In an instant, I topped the city's trending search list.

The company entrance was completely surrounded by reporters, and even if I wanted to escape, I had no chance at all.

Just as I was beginning to despair, the company's security guards came out one after another and dispersed the group of reporters.

Taking advantage of this break, I finally had time to run into the company.

But to my surprise, someone was actually willing to help me in this situation.

I don't know if it was just my imagination, but when I ran in just now, I actually saw Jiang Yichen's figure out of the corner of my eye.

But after thinking about it carefully, I realized that Jiang Yichen would definitely not step in to help me under those circumstances.

I guess I misread it.

As soon as I walked into the company, the other employees started talking about me.

"Gu Mo, I never expected you to be like this behind my back. I never imagined you would become a mistress."

"They've embarrassed themselves right here at the company gate. Are they trying to drag us down with them?"

Listening to their sarcastic remarks, I could only try to ignore them.

Old Mo hurriedly followed me in, and said to me with a face full of apology, "I'm sorry, Gu Mo, I didn't expect things to turn out like this."

I suppressed my emotions, shook my head, and replied seriously, "The most urgent thing right now is to clarify this matter as soon as possible."

Upon hearing my idea, Lao Mo quickly nodded in agreement.

"Yes, yes, this matter must be clarified immediately."

I pulled Lao Mo back to my workspace and told him my decision.

"Given the current situation, let's do a live stream together and clarify this matter to everyone."

At present, only by resolving the rumors as soon as possible can the losses be minimized.

Old Mo understood my thoughts and decisively reached a consensus.

"Think about how to explain it before you start the live stream."

I understood Lao Mo's caution, so I deliberately rehearsed the words with him.

It also simulates and answers questions that netizens might ask.

After confirming that everything was in perfect order, the two of us started the live stream.

As soon as the live stream started, many netizens flooded in.

The live chat exploded with excitement when they saw us sitting together.

But all that appeared on the screen were insults directed at us.

[This scumbag and bitch have started livestreaming together! What does this mean? Are they trying to make money off each other?]

[This is the first time I've ever seen a mistress, and she dares to be so blatant about it?]

[Pah! I even bought products you endorsed before, I never expected you to be such a disgusting person behind my back.]

These netizens were extremely agitated, and a barrage of insults followed.

Looking at these foul words on the screen, I could only suppress my emotions.

The number of viewers in the live stream kept increasing. When I thought it was about right, I took the initiative to speak up, "I've seen the comments about me online, and I have something to say about it."

I had barely spoken a word, before I could even clarify anything, when Lao Mo nudged me under the table.

I didn't quite understand what he meant, but I stopped for the time being.

When netizens saw that I suddenly stopped halfway through my sentence, they immediately became dissatisfied.

Meanwhile, the popularity of my live stream kept rising.

Seeing my puzzled look, Lao Mo grabbed the microphone and whispered, "Wait a little longer, don't rush to explain, the traffic can still go up."

After I understood what he meant, I chose to obey.

The number of viewers in the live stream is increasing.

I couldn't help but sigh to myself, "Gossip is still the most captivating thing."

The level of interest that gossip is generating for me now is unprecedented.

Seeing that the number of viewers in the live stream had reached over 100,000, I knew the time was right.

Old Mo nodded seriously to me before speaking, "I know everyone is curious about my relationship with Gu Mo, but apart from our work collaboration, there is no other inappropriate relationship between us."

When Lao Mo spoke up, I took the opportunity to clarify the situation from yesterday: "The video that circulated online yesterday was because it was my colleague's birthday, and I lost a game as punishment."

We tried to clarify yesterday's rumors together, but to our surprise, netizens didn't buy it.

Various comments speculating about our identities kept popping up.

[Who knows if you're lovers or just colleagues? We don't do that where I'm from.]

[The video shows them hugging, so what's with this talk of colleagues not working together?]

[The man's wife has already made a scene at his company, how could this be fake? Everyone knows you two are having an affair.]

[Don't try to fool us viewers. This clarification is just to give the man's wife and fans an explanation.]

[I was just saying that once this is all over, who knows what kind of underhanded things they might be doing behind the scenes.]

These netizens are saying harsh things, as if they only want to believe what they see.

I kept explaining to Lao Mo, but it had no effect whatsoever.

The comments from netizens on the live stream were even more offensive.

For a moment, neither of us knew what to do.

Just then, Jiang Yichen, with a cold face, pushed open the door to the workroom.

With a serious expression, he commanded in a deep voice, "End the live stream."

I didn't expect Jiang Yichen to come, but seeing his condition, I had no choice but to obediently turn off the live stream.

He called me to his office.

As soon as the door closed, the scolding began.

"Gu Mo, if you don't have the ability, don't mess around with things. Are you only satisfied when you've made a mess of the company?"

I don't understand why he thinks it's just messing around.

I made this choice for the sake of my own reputation.

There was nothing between me and Lao Mo. Should I be subjected to this unwarranted accusation just because of a few game videos?

Faced with his anger, I raised my head and said logically, "I just want to clarify the facts. I don't think I did anything wrong."

Jiang Yichen sneered, clearly not taking my words seriously.

He glanced at me and said casually, "No need to wait too long, those people will naturally forget."

Hearing his words, I felt that the person in front of me was unreasonable.

Does he think my reputation is something that can be smeared by others?

I can't even explain myself?

Am I just supposed to let the outside world misunderstand me?

Thinking about all this, I felt a surge of resentment and argued with him, "Why? I didn't do anything wrong. Lao Mo and I are completely innocent. Why should I bear the stigma of being a mistress?"

"Gu Mo, the things you did to me before were even more unbearable, and I tolerated them all. Now, you can't even tolerate this little thing?"

Jiang Yichen's gaze toward me gradually turned mocking.

I don't care what he thinks; I won't accept something I haven't done before.

I suppressed my anger and retorted with my questions, word by word.

"Why should I put up with it? Haven't I put up with enough already?"
