"You've got time to date lately? I can add you to my order."
When Ning Qi received Nie Yuchen's message, she couldn't help but slap her thigh and laugh.
He never imagined that the phrase "saying one thing but meaning another" could be used to describe Nie Yuchen.
They might say no or no, but their actions tell a different story.
"Looks like you don't like it, then I won't be polite." He sent another message.
After a long pause, Nie Yuchen replied, "You're not allowed to make any advances toward her."
Ning Qi laughed until tears streamed down her face.
Meanwhile, Nie Yuchen felt a sense of crisis. Mingluo's peach blossom mark had tried to fly to Ning Qi's body, but he intercepted it halfway. However, Ning Qi seemed to have fallen in love with Mingluo. Could it be that the interception was useless?
Nie Yuchen looked at his palm and fell into deep self-doubt.
He walked up to Mingluo, eager to ask her for clarification.
Minglu looked up and saw that he was clearly surprised. "Why haven't you left yet?"
Nie Yuchen's phoenix eyes darkened slightly. Did they really treat him like a tool for cooking and washing pots?
Use it and then throw it away...
Heartless woman!
Minglu realized what was happening, coughed lightly, and her lost conscience returned a little. "You've worked hard. Sit down and rest for a bit."
"Okay!" Nie Yuchen felt a little better.
He picked up a piece of fruit and peeled it for Mingluo while saying, "I'll wait for your news. If everything is alright, I'll leave."
"Okay, make yourself at home. I'm a bit busy, so I won't keep you company."
Minglu stared intently at her phone, constantly refreshing the messages.
The message needs time to develop and gain traction after it's been sent out.
She clicked on a news article and read it over and over again.
This video is different from the videos previously provided to police officers at the police station.
This time, the video has sound. Ning Qi discovered that someone had filmed the entire argument in a silent video feed in the coffee shop. He found that person and bought the video.
This video has clear picture and sound quality, and most importantly, it showcases her beauty in its original form while also exposing Qian Xiulan's ugliness.
This person probably intended to take a picture of her secretly, but ended up capturing this scene instead.
As soon as the video started playing, Qian Xiulan's arrogant voice came through, and Nie Yuchen also went over to watch.
"Mingluo, you've got some nerve, daring to hang up on me. Do you believe I'll go to the school right now and make a scene, making it impossible for you to continue your studies?"
"You little slut, you're threatening me? Don't you even consider me your aunt anymore?"
"A worthless wretch who was born of a mother but raised by one."
"If that man doesn't like you anymore, you can't force him to stay, can you?"
"Why aren't you going to close the case yet?"
The speaker's tone was unspeakably vulgar, arrogant, and disdainful, each sentence irritating the listener's nerves.
Nie Yuchen's cold eyes narrowed slightly, feeling that Mingluo hadn't hit him hard that day.
People like that deserve to be beaten.
Mingluo herself felt nothing; the pitiful one was the original owner of this body.
When she was in the realm of gods, she always spoke with her sword; only the heavens could defeat her!
Therefore, I haven't suffered any grievances. The biggest grievance was probably failing to transcend the tribulation.
She turned off the video and started scrolling through her messages.
Meanwhile, countless people, just like her, were also watching this video. After comparing it with videos from a few days ago, they immediately understood.
The video from that day was from a coffee shop. Not only was there no sound, but because of the fixed angle, it only captured Qian Xiulan's back and didn't clearly show the fierce look on her face.
The video was also edited, cutting out the scene where Qian Xiulan pointed at Mingluo's nose and cursed at her, and even stood up to hit Mingluo.
That was a video that had been deliberately edited to manipulate public opinion.
On the contrary, the video that has been released now clearly shows the faces of Mingluo and Qian Xiulan, and the expressions on their faces are very clear.
Those who previously thought Mingluo was too indifferent and cold-blooded, after listening to the original audio, began to admire Mingluo's composure.
If someone pointed at them and insulted them like that, they'd probably smash a cup at them right then and there.
In short, they were fooled.
A sense of being fooled spread among many people, manifesting online as a deluge of apology comments and comments supporting Mingluo.
"Are there really such shameless people in the world? They're like thieves crying 'stop thief!' Qian Xiulan, have you no shame?"
"You're making yourself look like a victim, but you're the bad guy. And you're acting like someone's aunt? If my aunt dared to curse me like that, I would have cut off all ties with her long ago."
"So you were trying to force them to drop the case, so you framed them. It seems your whole family is no good."
"This is a classic case of destroying something if you can't achieve your goal."
"It's likely that when they couldn't get what they wanted from the person in person, they resorted to underhanded tactics to ruin their reputation so they could reap the benefits and achieve their own ulterior motives."
“I used to think Mingluo was too ruthless, but now I see that she wasn’t ruthless enough. If I were there, I could have slapped her so hard she could fly.”
"This girl is so cool, so stylish and cool. Do you have a girlfriend? I can be your 108th girlfriend."
"Don't we still owe Mingluo an apology? I'm really sorry, I followed the crowd and criticized you back then, and now I've been proven wrong. I'll never take sides randomly again, there are just too many unexpected twists and turns."
"Mingluo, I'm sorry."
"Sorry +1"
...
The video went viral online.
Numerous comments followed, connecting the issue to the previous official announcement...
It seems we should rely more on official commentary from now on.
You really can't trust videos on the internet.
Minglu kept refreshing the messages, grinning from ear to ear.
