4638 Never Too Late to Love (45)

As soon as she said this, there was the sound of hurried footsteps. Before the female colleague had even finished speaking, someone grabbed her collar. She turned around in shock, but Bai Sheng had already delivered a slap to her face.

Crack! The sound was crisp and clear.

"Bai Sheng…"

"You?! How could you hit someone?"

"Why did you hit her, Bai Sheng?"

The scene was chaotic.

Aifei, the female colleague who had been slapped, now stood rooted to the ground with bloodshot eyes. Bai Sheng was so angry that she had turned ashen. At the same time, everyone jumped to Aifei's defence.

"Bai Sheng, have you gone mad?"

"That's right! Why did you hit her?!"

Bai Sheng said in a deep voice, "Because she has crossed my bottom line!"

"What bottom line?"

"That's right. What did Aifei do to you?"

Bai Sheng's eyes reddened as she said, "Talking about someone else's husband behind her back, suggesting that someone else's marriage is fake, will all this make you feel superior?"

Aifei looked at Bai Sheng in disbelief. She did not expect the girl's hearing to be so sharp that she actually heard!

Bai Sheng continued angrily, "What's wrong with men one gets to know on blind dates!? Are all men who go on blind dates trash? Why should my husband be judged by all of you? Aifei, is your mouth so free?"

Aifei was embarrassed and aggrieved, but because she was in the wrong, she could not defend herself. The next second, she started crying.

Bai Sheng sneered, "You have the cheek to feel wronged?"

Aifei stood up immediately and held back her tears as she said, "Bai Sheng, I was just being kind! Didn't your husband say that he could buy a house in Chunjiang Tianxi with a 50 per cent discount?! Didn't your husband say that he would go to the sales office this weekend? My aunt is at Chunjiang Tianxi. I'll wait for you there this weekend! If you can buy it at a 50 per cent discount, I will kowtow to you. If your husband is bragging, then the two of you will kneel down before me!"

"Is that the issue here?" Bai Sheng did not understand. "Is the issue whether we can afford a house? The issue is, what right do you have to say that my marriage is a scam!"

"Since you're married, why is he still lying to you?! If he can't afford a house in Chunjiang Tianxi, so be it. Why is he bragging to you about it? If he's not scamming you, what is it?! You need to wake up!" Having said this, Aifei kicked the table away and stormed off.

Bai Sheng was equally furious. The scene was extremely awkward.

The head of the design department suddenly walked over. Seeing that these people were gathered around with stiffened expressions, he became a little puzzled. "What's wrong?"

Bai Sheng did not say anything and turned to walk away, leaving the supervisor behind with a blank expression.

"What's wrong? Why does she look so upset? Who provoked her?"

"She and Aifei had a fight."

"What's the fight about?"

A nosy colleague recounted the grievances between Bai Sheng and Aifei. When the supervisor heard this, he couldn't help laughing. "How childish, I thought it was something serious!"

With that, he shook his head and left. Everyone looked at each other. For a moment, they did not know if they should sit down and continue eating or return to the office.

For the entire afternoon, the entire office was dead silent. Aifei kept glaring at Bai Sheng. The two of them sat opposite each other, separated by glass bars.

However, Bai Sheng immediately returned to working. After drinking a cup of coffee, she started to work on her design draft seriously.

Aifei suddenly lifted her chin and said coldly, "Bai Sheng, why are you so serious about your work? Isn't your husband very rich? Why don't you just stay at home and take care of your husband and children? Let your husband take care of you."
