"No way, how could Wen Shengsheng possibly be interested in such a short and ugly man? Flowers and cow dung are not a good match."
"Shh, keep your voice down. Can't you see Mr. Qin doesn't look well?"
"Everyone outside says that the two daughters of the Wen family are very close sisters, but now it seems that's not necessarily true..."
...
The people whispered among themselves.
Wen Shengsheng could still hear some of what was said clearly. She said, "Slander. I don't know him."
"You say you don't know her, but do you really not know her? Do you have any proof?" Lin Bei seized the opportunity to trample Wen Shengsheng's reputation underfoot.
Wen Shengsheng felt angry, but she remained calm and said, "What evidence can prove that what he said is true? He is just making baseless accusations against others. I'm afraid someone is deliberately instigating this behind the scenes."
"Wen Shengsheng, you are shameless and still trying to argue. You say he is slandering you, but why doesn't he slander others? Why does he have to slander you?" Lin Bei said smugly, as if she could already see Wen Shengsheng's tragic future.
When someone has been repeatedly bullied, some people automatically think, "Why bully you instead of someone else?"
Wen Shengsheng had already learned this lesson from her mother once; these people were truly birds of a feather.
"Everything I said is true. Her family betrothed her to me as my wife. I'm here to take her home. Wife, let's go home." The short man chuckled greedily, his eyes utterly repulsive!
Feeling deeply humiliated by the mocking gazes of so many people, Wen's parents were visibly displeased. Wen's mother immediately scolded them, "You shameful wretch, go back home right now!"
"Yes, sister... let's talk about this in private..."
Wen Shengsheng's sharp eyes swept over Meng Qiqi, but she saw that Meng Qiqi was not afraid at all. Every word she said was a trap. Once the outcome was revealed in private, even white would be turned into black.
If this matter isn't investigated properly today, Wen Shengsheng's reputation will be damaged!
From then on, Wen Shengsheng's reputation in the capital was ruined. Rumors and gossip were deadly. Wen Shengsheng did not miss the disgust on her parents' faces, as well as the contempt on the faces of some other people.
She was clearly innocent.
Actually, this is a very clumsy trick.
Those from prestigious and wealthy families would surely see it!
They just wanted to see something exciting.
Wen Shengsheng felt a deep sadness.
Suddenly, Qin Heming grasped her hand, his brows showing a gentleness she had never seen before: "Qin Feng, call the police. I believe the police will give the victim the truth."
"Yes." Qin Feng immediately dialed the police.
Qin Heming coldly surveyed the area ahead and said in a chilling tone, "Not a single one of you is allowed to leave."
The expressions on everyone's faces suddenly changed.
Wen Shengsheng looked at Qin Heming in surprise. When she encountered difficulties, it was Qin Heming who was the first to help her.
For a moment, Wen Shengsheng's feelings were extremely complicated.
When the participants heard that the police were going to be called, they panicked instantly. The short man made a fuss but was kicked to the ground by Qin Feng. Some people couldn't help but laugh, but after realizing they had laughed out loud, they immediately covered their mouths.
Lin Bei and Meng Qiqi exchanged an anxious glance. What should they do?
They speculated and guessed, but they never expected Qin Heming to call the police.
“Mr. Qin, perhaps… let’s forget about it and talk about it privately.”
Wen's mother couldn't stand the pointing and whispering looks from others; they stung her.
"Who are you?"
"Mr. Qin, I am Wen Shengsheng's mother." What's wrong with him?
Qin Heming's eyes were unreadable, but his tone was calm: "So you knew you were Wen Shengsheng's mother."
"..." Wen's mother's expression suddenly turned ugly. She was surrounded by unfriendly eyes. Wen's mother's eyes reddened with resentment. Qin Heming was accusing Wen's mother of being unworthy of being Wen Shengsheng's mother.
Qin Heming, who is usually indifferent, stood up for Wen Shengsheng in front of so many people. Her life is too good.
Wen Shengsheng felt a sudden warmth in her heart.
When the police arrived, Qin Feng relayed what had happened. While the police were investigating, Wen Shengsheng whispered, "Thank you."
She wasn't in a good mood.
Today, Qin Heming directly felt Wen Shengsheng's status in the hearts of the Wen family; there was no protection, only disdain.
Somehow, just now—
For the first time, he saw a hint of sadness in Wen Shengsheng's eyes. That sense of unease tugged at his heart, making it increasingly painful.
"No... I'm innocent, police, please let me go... It was her, she gave me money to come and find Wen Shengsheng... She instructed me to do everything."
"You're talking nonsense! I don't know you at all!" Lin Bei explained in a panic. Once the evidence against her was proven, she would have no place in the industry anymore.
“I have proof…this is the record of the bill she transferred to me…”
The short man held up his phone, looking apprehensive.
At this moment, he realized that he had been tricked by Lin Bei. Wen Shengsheng was not disliked by everyone; on the contrary, he was the one who was going to face a lawsuit.
"Tell me, did you know Miss Wen before?" Qin Feng asked.
“I know her… no, to be precise, I know Miss Wen, but she doesn’t know me. I made it all up. I did whatever she said for money, to get a wife… please forgive me…” The short man wept bitterly!
With the police present, she was able to clear her name after returning to the station to handle the matter of falsely accusing someone.
Lin Bei was the instigator. She shouted and insulted Wen Shengsheng, and when all hope seemed lost, she called out Meng Qiqi!
“Beibei, although we are friends, you shouldn’t have framed my sister. I know you did it to get revenge for me… I’ve been advising you not to do this, otherwise it will be very difficult for me…” Meng Qiqi quickly extricated herself from the situation. She looked at Lin Bei, who was being dragged away, with a pitiful expression. After her shock came anger.
pity--
They were taken away by the police.
Suddenly, many people began to say that believing Wen Shengsheng's words was hypocritical and pretentious, and that Wen Shengsheng wanted to leave.
The banquet continued.
But Qin Heming led Wen Shengsheng away.
Affectionate and proactive!
Is this still the aloof, woman-free Buddhist monk of Beijing's elite circle?
Some people were secretly gossiping about the relationship between Wen Shengsheng and Qin Heming.
Qin Hemian is in for trouble for his lover!
Meng Qiqi, whose plan had failed, suppressed the jealousy in her eyes and thought, "Useless trash, can't even handle such a small matter."
"Qiqi...you need to explain to your mother clearly, does this have anything to do with you?" Wen's mother suddenly asked.
"Of course not."
With a complex expression, Wen's mother slowly nodded, "I believe everything you say."
Ling Zhiyan, who had been silent all along, witnessed the whole farce, and a fleeting emotion flashed in his eyes behind his gold-rimmed glasses.
"Mrs. Wen, what's going on with your daughter and Mr. Qin, whom you just found?"
Having regained face for the Wen family, Wen's mother received a benefit from Wen Shengsheng for the first time. She said elegantly, "Shengsheng is Mr. Qin's fiancée, and of course... my Qiqi is Zhiyan's fiancée. They will be engaged soon, and we will all come together to have a drink at their wedding."
Marriage!
got engaged?
The news was shocking, and it shocked everyone in the industry.
Meng Qiqi's lips curled slightly as she moved closer to Ling Zhiyan's wheelchair: "Zhiyan—"
"You're the mastermind behind this, aren't I right? My fiancée." Ling Zhiyan's eyes were dark, and a cold light reflected off his glasses.
