CEO Vengeful Wife-Chapter 160: Played into the trap
There was no weakness in Jing Lihua that her enemies could attack. No weakness but a certain one.
That was her relationship with her husband, Su Liwei...
In the social circle and media channels, her relationship with Su Liwei was increasingly being criticized.
Someone had let out the rumor that they both were not living together. Being married and not living together? It was apparent that the married couple was in bad terms.

After being slapped by Jing Lihua back in Hong Kong, Jing Tian was burning with flames of anger. "Dammit! I won't sit down without teaching that bitch a lesson!"
In recent times, Su Liwei had completely cut ties with her, ignoring her constantly.
Even Su Lanfan whom she depended upon was forced into a corner and had to flee aboard.
While that bitch was getting more and more powerful. The rumors had it she even formed an association with the prestigious 'Li' family.
"Those are after all baseless rumors. Xiao Mei, you don't need to stress over them. I am sure that slut has used them as a means for straightening her influence. After all, now that Elder Su is determined to bring her down and she had seen her downfall, she would resort to all shameless means."
"What your brother says makes sense. There is no way someone like her could form an association with the people in the upper circle like the 'Li' family. What are you worried about? Are you aware that you have to wait for three months just to get an appointment with President Li? In front of them, even the 'Su' enterprise of Beijing is an unimpressive name. What is her punny 'Tang' enterprise?"
"Now that mother mentions it, I am seeing things even more clearly. How stupid of me to think that Jing Lihua could get in contact with them? Maybe she had been lucky enough to get into a small association with them. But other than that, she doesn't have the abilities. They have countless business accomplices like her. They wouldn't especially extend a helping hand for her sake."
"Cousin, you are worried for no reason." He Zongying said. "The ignorance of Jing Lihua is making me laugh. She started such a ridiculous rumor to evoke fear in people's hearts... She is truly dumb! Even I find it unworthy to scoff at her for this!"
"You are right. Starting these rumors, she had just given us a chance to laugh at her." Jing Junhai sneered.
"Her desperate and ridiculous tactics to save herself, as someone related to her, even I am feeling embarrassed!"
Listening to everyone's assurances, the anxiety in Jing Tian's heart dissipated. Later that day, she thought to herself. "If that is so, I can do what Jiayi-Jie had asked me for."
Some days ago, Su Jiayi had called Jing Tian. She sounded particularly bad-tempered. She had promised Jing Tian a lead role in a new historical romance movie. After all, Su enterprise held a small entertainment corporate.
>To get an artist the role, it would just take one call from Su Jiayi. Why else Su Lanfen would be so famous
The premise of that promise was that Jing Tian must contact some media corporates and using her influence, she must force some of them to print tabloids about Jing Lihua and Su Liwei strained relationship.
Jing Tian actually harbored resentment towards Jing Lihua. After receiving a tempting offer from Su Jiayi's side, she was moved.
But the slap she had suffered that day in Hong Kong had evoked fear in her.
Furthermore if Jing Lihua had an association with Li family...
But now that her fear dissipated, she readily contacted many media corporates.

Few days later, Jing Lihua achieved the exact result she had wanted.
"Heng Bingwen, remember, you must not suppress these rumors. Instead, if it is possible, give air to them. But make sure not to make your actions obvious." Jing Lihua instructed over the phone.
"Yes President!"
Jing Lihua sighed. "You are so busy with your new position yet I have to ask for favors from you. If not for the reason that I don't have anyone else I could trust a hundred percent, I would not have bothered you..."
"President..." Heng Bingwen interjected. "To be able to serve you, it is one way to make up to what I owe you. You do not need to feel like this."
Especially now that they were family.
Heng Bingwen left these words unsaid.
After all, until now, President hadn't directly talked to him about the issue.
Later Mei Xiu arrived into the office informing Jing Lihua that she had received a call from Su Liwei's personal number.
Jing Lihua took the phone in her hands and placed it against her ears. "Yes...?"
On the other side, the reply didn't come immediately. Instead, it took at least ten seconds before the person spoke.
"Jing Lihua... are you not disturbed by the rumors that had been circulating in the media recently?" A deep voice reverberated. It was mostly emotionless.
Jing Lihua's lips curled up. "Even if I am so what? I had appeared at Mealor Mansion as you had asked me back in Hong Kong. But I came to learn you were not even in the country. I wasted much precious time of mine and had even endured the humiliation of your Uncle."
Silence.
"These are affecting not only you but also me. There is only one way to resolve this. It's already been a few months to out marriage. I will take you to the Su Islands to make people shut up. Since it benefits us both, I hope you won't have any objections?"
"Of course I won't!" Jing Lihua sighed. "These rumors are indeed causing me a bit of hindrance in my daily life."
"Then... It is decided. We will depart next week." Saying so, the phone was pi
cked out.
"Told you she would agree. I have already pushed her back into a position of no retreat." Su Jiayi said. A hint of pride appeared on her face.
"You still underestimate her..."
"Brother, aren't you blinded by your love for that woman? You think too highly of her. I didn't instigate the rumors on my own. Instead, I had used Jing Tian to use the work. Even if she investigated, she wouldn't find anything to link with us. She wouldn't... doubt us."
Su Liwei glanced at his sister coldly.
"I hope so."
Though he said that, he really didn't know if he meant it.
