Chapter 218: Everyone Flees When Disaster Strikes



Ji Ci sensed all these tiny thoughts from her unguarded heart and captured them one by one.

"It's not your fault. This matter has nothing to do with you."

Shen Mingzhu suddenly regained consciousness and broke free from Ji Ci's arms.

"No, I am guilty too!"

"It was my inaction that made him become like this..."

The next second, Shen Mingzhu squatted on the ground with her head in her hands, repeating that she was also guilty.

This scene made Ji Ci's heart suddenly ache.

He really wanted to say, why is she so stupid.

He could have stayed out of it, but he insisted on taking on all the blame.

Sometimes being too moral is not a good thing.

However, Ji Ci couldn't say that.

He knew that Shen Mingzhu in front of him could not stand any more stimulation.

She was already trapped in her own emotions and on the verge of collapse. If I continued to refute her ideas, it would only make her collapse even more and would not provide any comfort at all.

The best approach is to speak in line with her thoughts first, calm her emotions, and then slowly correct these incorrect thoughts after she calms down.

This is what Ji Ci thought and did.

He slowly helped Shen Mingzhu up, "Since you feel so guilty, why don't you follow me in and make the real perpetrator pay the price? I'll treat it as revenge for him and atonement for you..."

Shen Mingzhu nodded woodenly, and walked into the room again with the help of Ji Ci.

And Lu Chi inside immediately did what Shen Mingzhu said after hearing it.

Calculating the time, Shen Zejing should be here soon.

When Ji Ci and the dazed Shen Mingzhu came back, Lu Chi was curious about what they had just done.

Why did Shen Mingzhu change from being angry but determined just now to being dazed now?

However, these things were not something he could be curious about, so he pretended not to know.

The scene fell into an eerie silence, especially for the group of people standing together, who didn't know whether to leave or not.

Logically speaking, under the current circumstances, they would not be stopped even if they left.

After all, Ji Ci, the person they initially thought would be the one to bring charges, actually remained silent from beginning to end.

It was even more impossible for Shen Mingzhu to hold them accountable. Not to mention that a woman could not cause any trouble. Even if she looked extremely angry when she first came in, in the eyes of these people, she was just a cat with its claws bared.

It looks intimidating, but in fact it doesn't cause much damage to them.

What's more, she is now supported by Ji Ci, which makes these people directly label Shen Mingzhu in their hearts that she is just Ji Ci's vassal, and the only one who can really speak is Ji Ci.

Unfortunately, these people don’t know that they will soon pay a heavy price for despising Shen Mingzhu.

But at the moment, no one in this group of people took the initiative to leave.

The scene just remained in stalemate until a swift and decisive figure rushed in at an extremely fast speed.

He first glanced at Shen Mingzhu and Ji Ci in surprise, and then went to check on Shen Zeshuo's condition without any hesitation.

As a man, he didn't have so many concerns, especially when he saw the shocking marks on Shen Zeshuo's body, he could no longer restrain his roar.

“Who did it!!!”

The full-bodied roar made everyone in the audience tremble.

Of course, Ji Ci and Shen Mingzhu were the exceptions. Ji Ci was because Shen Zejing's roar was not directed at him, and even if it was, he was not afraid.

Shen Mingzhu was still trapped in self-blame and unable to extricate herself, so she couldn't even hear Shen Zejing's roar.

"Calm down, Mr. Shen."

Lu Chi, who was standing next to Shen Zejing, suffered a lot.

He was not the culprit, but he was the biggest victim of Shen Zejing's roar.

Because he was so close, his ears were still buzzing.

"Calm down? How can I calm down when my brother is like this?"

The light in the room changed, and a beam of light happened to hit Shen Zejing's face.

Many people who saw his face clearly and recognized his true identity turned pale and even broke out in cold sweats.

Shen Zejing is very different from Shen Zeshuo, he is almost the image representative of Shenhong Group.

Even though the main circle of these people is the entertainment industry, it does not prevent them from remembering the face of Shen Zejing, a young and promising business tycoon.

If Ji Ci made these people feel guilty, then Chen Zejing directly made them fearful.

It’s because Ji Ci doesn’t like to show up in public, and with his face, it’s hard to believe that he is the leader who controls the entire Ji family industry.

After all, they had never seen a chairman who was so young and had such a handsome face.

Shen Zejing is different. He is not the chairman of Shenhong Group, but only the executive president of the business. In addition, Shen Zejing himself is much older than Ji Ci and looks more mature.

Not to mention his facial features, just looking at this point, Shen Zejing is more like what he should look like in his position.

Moreover, Shen Zejing's face appeared frequently, so it was normal for people to remember him.

"Is it him? Him? Or him?" Shen Zejing raised his hand and pointed casually, pointing out the few people with the highest say in this group based solely on his intuition.

The people he pointed out couldn't help but tremble, and one of them didn't have enough self-control to even speak.

"Well, we really don't know his true identity. Yes, he was the one who brought the people here, and he was the one who did the most outrageous thing. If you want to make a fuss, find him first!"

Look, with just one look from Shen Zejing, these people started to betray the leader of the group.

When others heard what he said, they also began to shirk responsibility, trying to minimize their own presence and magnify the ugliness of others.

It turns out that the people closest to you know best how to hurt each other the most.

These ugly scenes of each other tearing off their last fig leaf made the unity they had just been proud of look like a joke.

The director who had brought Shen Zeshuo here in the beginning was also panicked, but even though the scene was in chaos, he still had to remain calm.

Otherwise, if he himself loses his composure, there will be no room for maneuver in the whole matter.

The group that treated him as brothers and close friends yesterday may stab him hard today. No, more than one stab.

He knows these people too well and will not miss any opportunity to shirk responsibility.

Now is the best explanation. They will not miss any opportunity to get themselves out of it and take the opportunity to discredit him.

"Shut up, everyone!"

Shen Zejing simply couldn’t stand the noise of these people arguing like in a vegetable market.

When these people heard Shen Zejing's roar, they were forced to stop the melee of stepping on each other. After all, if they angered Shen Zejing, they would all be in trouble.

Not to mention trying to clear yourself of all charges, how can the eggs remain intact when the nest is overturned?

If Shen Zejing held everyone accountable in anger, then all their efforts to pull down and criticize others would be meaningless.

They knew very well whether to die alone or all of them together.
