This commotion drew everyone's attention, but none of them really understood what was going on. Some even whispered, "What's going on?"

Lu Mingxuan didn't know what was wrong with Qiao Xi, but seeing the people gathering around them, he didn't have time to think and stepped forward to grab Qiao Xi's hand, "Xiao Xi, what are you talking about?"

"Don't touch me, you disgust me!" Qiao Xi screamed, shaking off his hand and shouting at him, "You're using my money to support other women, Lu Mingxuan, you're really something."

These words made the onlookers understand what was going on, and they all started pointing and whispering about Qiao Yuan, "No way, this woman is a mistress?"

"She does look quite similar." Some people even directly confirmed Qiao Yuan's identity.

Someone pointed at Lu Mingxuan and said, "This guy is a gigolo."

Seeing them pointing fingers at him and saying such offensive things, Lu Mingxuan couldn't stand it and retorted, "It's not like that."

Qiao Xi continued, her voice filled with utter disappointment and grievance, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn't have believed it."

"One is my own sister, and the other is the man who keeps saying he loves me."

In an instant, the onlookers all gave them hateful looks, and the vast majority of them took out their cameras and started taking pictures of them.

Qiao Yuan instinctively covered her face with her hands, desperately denying it, "She's talking nonsense, don't believe her."

Unfortunately, no one believed her and Lu Mingxuan's rebuttals and denials. That's how people are, especially with strangers. Once they have a certain opinion, it's hard to change it.

With a final burst of strength, Qiao Xi reached out to Lu Mingxuan, "Give me back my card."

Lu Mingxuan looked at Qiao Xi with resentment. He really couldn't understand what was wrong with her. Why did she have to humiliate him like this in such a place?

Could it be because he failed to take her away?

Qiao Yuan had told him about this before. It seemed that she was holding a grudge against them for not taking her away that day, which was why she was retaliating against them like this.

Even so, Lu Mingxuan could not forgive her behavior at this moment. "Xiao Xi, don't go too far."

Seeing his attitude towards Qiao Xi, the well-meaning onlookers couldn't stand it anymore. Overflowing with a sense of justice, they demanded that Lu Mingxuan, "Hurry up and hand it over! Being a gigolo is disgusting enough, but to keep another woman on the side, tsk tsk tsk..."

After they were admitted to Peking University together, Qiao Xi did give Lu Mingxuan a card, and she would deposit money into the card every month.

In front of Lu Mingxuan, she said that the money on the card was money they had saved for themselves in their previous life, but in reality it was money for Lu Mingxuan to spend. She said that because she was concerned about his poor family background and didn't want him to lose face.

Lu Mingxuan knew perfectly well that although he had refused once, it was only a verbal refusal; in his heart, he accepted it.

Even at this moment, he could still feel a little bit of shame, so much so that he blurted out, "It's not what you think, she forced the card on me."

These words immediately aroused the indignation of the men. "You're shameless! You just took it because they forced it on you. You've completely disgraced men."

"Exactly, now there's an excuse for being a gigolo."

However, some women have different opinions: "He's so handsome. If I had money, I would be willing to support him, but only if he doesn't cheat on me."

That's right, Lu Mingxuan looks like a typical pretty boy, but he is indeed a top student. He was admitted to Beijing University with the highest score, and with his good looks, he was chosen as the school's most handsome student as a freshman.

Since then, many wealthy girls have wanted to throw themselves at him. He must have been tempted, but because he was under Qiao Xi's watchful eye every day, he didn't dare to be too blatant.

But now that I think about it, what are those rich heiresses compared to the prestigious Jinghua family? He came here for the Jinghua family from the beginning, and having Qiao Xi is like having the key to open the door to the Jinghua family.

Qiao Yuan was too busy trying to leave, but she was surrounded by a crowd of people snapping photos of her with their phones and cameras. She had nowhere to hide.

At this moment, she hated Qiao Xi so much, but she had no choice. In order to escape, she could only pretend to be pitiful and ask Qiao Xi for help, "Sister, please tell them that it's not like that."

Qiao Xi said with a cold laugh, "I also want to believe you, but I've seen it all."

As she spoke, she picked up her phone and gestured to the onlookers, then asked the couple for their opinion, "I have all the CCTV footage of you entering and leaving the hotel. Do you want me to show it to you now?"

Before he could finish speaking, another barrage of insults erupted: "Disgusting."

"Take pictures of them and expose them."

"Want to leave? Not so easy."

In an instant, the adulterous couple became like rats crossing the street, unable to escape or hide.

Qiao Xi gave up the best spot at the right time, and there was nothing else for her to do, so let everyone take good care of them.

Compared to their past experiences, what they encountered was nothing at all.

But this is just the beginning. She will take the rest back from them, little by little!

Qiao Xi walked gracefully to the elevator entrance. Just as she was about to press the button for the underground parking lot, the elevator doors suddenly opened, and before she could react, the people inside pulled her in.

She bumped into a warm embrace, and feeling that familiar scent, she slowly raised her head to meet his deep eyes, and asked in a sweet voice, "Honey, weren't you waiting for me downstairs?"

Qi Jincheng hugged her waist tightly, leaned down slightly, and whispered in her ear, "How can I be at ease with Xi'er making such a commotion?"

Qiao Xi's ears were tickled by his touch, and considering the inappropriate setting, she quickly and gently pushed him away.

Qi Jincheng remained unmoved and continued to hold her, so she had no choice but to hint to him about the security camera in the elevator.

"It'll be gone in a minute," Qi Jincheng said calmly.

Qiao Xi completely understood his meaning. Even the scene she just caused inside was something she had discussed with him, because she couldn't leave any 'evidence' behind.

Simply put, she cannot be filmed by onlookers, nor can she appear in videos online, and no one can know that she is the female protagonist of this incident.

All of this requires Qi Jincheng's abilities to accomplish.

Before she decided to cause this trouble, she had considered all the pros and cons, which is why she discussed it with Qi Jincheng.

However, after hearing what Qi Jincheng said, Qiao Xi still asked with some worry, "Honey, can you handle this?"

Qi Jincheng's lips curled into a barely perceptible, amused smile. "Xi'er gave all the instructions beforehand. If I don't handle this properly, wouldn't I be letting down Xi'er's hard work?"
