Chapter 136 It’s You
Before he could retract his thoughts, Yancy’s fat swung up, unexpectedly landing on Colin’s face.
“Yancyl” Colin stag gered from the unexpected hit, exclaiming, “Did you hit the wrong person?”

Yancy’s face suddenly changed, and with a playful and disdainful look, he stared back at him, “That’s
right, I hit you on purpose.”
“Do you really think I’m someone you can manipulate at will? You tried to sow discord between me and
the new director. It’s simply intolerable.”
His words shifted too quickly, and Colin couldn’t catch up.
Wasn’t he at odds with the new director? When did their relationship become so good?
“Yancy, I was just speaking the truth. Do you… do you have some misunderstanding about me?”
Yancy tightened his fist, “Misunderstanding? A couple of punches from me, and all the
misunderstandings will be gone.” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
As Yancy was about to strike again, Evelyn’s phone rang with a message notification.
‘Evelyn, do you have a moment?’ The message was from Quetzal.
Worried that Quetzal might be in trouble, Evelyn quickly replied, ‘What’s wrong?”
Then she set down her phone and looked meaningfully at Yancy. “Had enough?”
Yancy’s originally fierce gaze instantly softened, accompanied by a hint of grievance, “Evelyn, don’t be
so fierce. You were so gentle when you check your phone just now…”
His appearance now is vastly different from that day when he blocked the door.
Slightly exasperated, Evelyn sighed, “Yancy, what are you trying to express? You came running into my
office just to perform a show of hitting someone and feeling wronged?”
Realizing that Evelyn was angry, Yancy quickly explained, “Evelyn, are you mad about me questioning
you just now, right? I swear, I didn’t mean anything by it. It was all an act.”
“It’s that old guy Colin’s fault,, he insisted on sowing discord between us.”
Colin, who thought he had successfully stirred up trouble, covered his face that had been hit, his mouth
twitching. His eyes were filled with cold hatred, growing more intense.
Evelyn glanced at Colin and said, “If you have nothing else to do, you might as well go scrub the
company’s toilets. It’s better than spreading rumors everywhere.”
Colin’s eyes darkened, and he was about to speak when Evelyn disdainfully withdrew her gaze.. “You
can leave now.”

Chapter 136 It’s You
Colin looked at Yancy, and he exited the office.
Yancy, seeing him gone, approached eagerly, “How was that? Did the punch I threw just now make you
feel relieved…?”
Before he could finish his sentence, Evelyn’s phone rang again.
Quetzal explained that tomorrow is their school’s cultural festival, and the classmate who was
supposed to accompany on the piano suddenly got injured and had to take leave. She had no choice
but to urgently ask Evelyn for help.
Evelyn replied, “I have time, but I’m not a student. Are you sure it’s okay?”
Quetzal replied, “This activity was originally meant for parents to participate in, but I asked a classmate
because my family couldn’t accompany me.”
The next day.
Even though Evelyn left half an hour early, she still got stuck in traffic during the morning rush
hour.
At the school, Quetzal, now in her performance costume, listened to the announcements
outside with a worried expression. Her performance was originally scheduled as the fifth to last,
but when she arrived this morning, she was informed that she would perform as the eighth act.
“Quetzal, do you know you look like a dog been thrown into a trash can? Poor thing. What
happened to that master-level pianist you confidently claimed to have found? Did she get injured too?”
A sharp and sarcastic voice interrupted Quetzal’s thoughts.
Before Quetzal could speak, others chimed in.
“Like attracts like. Someone crawling out of a filthy gutter like her wouldn’t know any master pianists;
she probably can only play ‘Tw inkle, Twi nkle, Little Star.”
“Haha, She probably felt guilty. Otherwise, why hasn’t she shown up yet?”
Hearing these mocking comments, Quetzal raised her head, locking her sharp gaze onto the leader,
Xena. “Using despicable means to disrupt the order of the performances, that’s all you can do?”
“You’re doing all of this because you lack confidence, right? Xena, you are the one who’s pitiful and
laughable.”

Upon hearing Quetzal’s words, Xena was instantly struck where it hurt the most.
“Bi tch!” She raised her hand in agitation, swinging it fiercely towards Quetzal’s face.
Quetzal froze, but someone suddenly pulled her aside, narrowly avoiding Xena’s attack.
“Evelyn.” Quetzal turned around, a look of surprise on her face.
“Getting hit and not knowing how to dodge, are you stu pid?”
Seeing that Quetzal was unharmed, Evelyn then turned her cold gaze toward Xena. Upon
seeing the girl’s face, her expression disdainful, “So, it’s you…”,
Coincidentally, it was the girl who intentionally tried to get Henry’s number at the restaurant
last time.
Xena awkwardly lower her head.
