How ridiculous! Gong Zhan had seen all kinds of women’s tricks since he was a child. He would not fall for hers.

Upon hearing Gu Zit s sarcastic words, Lin Miao was about to play the victim, but Gong Zhan stepped in, shielding her behind him.

With an icy tone, he addressed Gu Zi, “You’re quite the disappointment, always engaging in underhanded deeds behind the scenes. And now, here you are, playing the innocent and changing the subject.”

Gu Zi exchanged a glance with Gong Xin, who felt both helpless and a headache coming on. She didn’t know what had gotten into her brother this time. What did this have to do with him?

Moreover, what had Gu Zi done? Wasn’t it Lin Miao who started the trouble?

Gong Xin felt that now that Gu Zi wasn’t bothering him anymore, he was becoming increasingly unreasonable, eagerly meddling in Gu Zi’s affairs.

Gu Zi, however, looked at Gong Zhan with a puzzled expression. “Are you talking about me?”

Gong Zhan snorted coldly, turning his handsome profile towards her as if to say he was done looking at her. He thought she was too good at playing the victim.

Gu Zi didn’t bother with him. After all, to her, Gong Zhan was an insignificant person.

Seeing this, Lin Miao quickly tried to mediate, “Brother Gong Zhan, Sister Gu Zi, please stop arguing. It’s my fault for not speaking well. Gong Xin’s allergic reaction was clearly an accident, and Gu Zi’s appearance here must be a coincidence.”

Gu Zi replied to Lin Miao, “You don’t have to be so roundabout. You just want everyone to think that Gong Xin’s allergic reaction has something to do with me, don’t you?”

Gu Zi voiced all her suspicions. She found Gong Xin’s allergic reaction today very strange.

She wondered if someone with ill intentions had sneaked into the radio station’s cafeteria when the staff was making the sweet soup, and secretly added papaya to the sweet potato soup that the announcer was drinking.

Gong Xin was allergic to papaya, a fact known by many people in the compound, including her.

After all, the radio station always placed great importance on the cooperation with Boss Huo of Xinghua. If she could shine or be praised in the cooperation with Boss Huo, it would be an opportunity for Lin Miao to be promoted directly from a clerk to an announcer.

So, Gong Xin being the bilingual host of this music tea party would naturally make someone want to cause trouble and replace her as the host.

However, many people in the station were wary of the power of the Gong family. They wouldn’t dare, and they didn’t have the motive since they didn’t know foreign languages.

But on second thought, it might not be the case for Lin Miao. Ever since Gu Zi sold her job to herself, Lin Miao could only work as a clerk at the radio station. A clerk was always lower than an announcer, and someone as vain as Lin Miao might covet this opportunity.

Moreover, Lin Miao clearly wanted to pin this on Gu Zi just now. Judging by Gong Zhan’s reaction, Lin Miao’s slander seemed to have worked. It was just a pity that she had seen through Lin Miao’s character and wouldn’t be as naive as her brother Gong Zhan, believing Lin Miao over Gu Zi.

Gong Xin felt that she needed to investigate this matter thoroughly.. She warned Lin Miao, “If I find out you’re scheming against me, I’ll definitely give

you trouble!”
