Chapter 10 Madness
The two shocking photos and the case filing receipt instantly woke up the internet in the early morning, alarming both night owls and those who woke up early to check their phones.
[Holy crap?! Such a shocking news so early in the morning?! So the Qing Ning incident was really done by Shi Qing's boss?]
[What does my brother Jingchen have to do with it! My brother and Gao Panpan are just good friends! Shi Qing, stop slandering us!] This is a die-hard fan of Yue Jingchen. There were reports before that the two of them were in a relationship, but Yue Jingchen cleared himself of the charges. Moreover, Gao Panpan, who was caught up in the public opinion, helped Yue Jingchen clarify that they were just good friends.
Shi Qing scrolled through the comments expressionlessly. When she saw this one, a cold arc appeared at the corner of her mouth.
She responded directly below:
Really? Are they good friends who can sleep in the same bed and kiss each other? [Intimate photos in bed.jpg] [Screenshot of the chat log Gao Panpan sent to Shi Qing showing off her photos.jpg]
[Want to read more? I have plenty here! Yue Jingchen and I are just former colleagues, there's not even a shred of ambiguity! Please, fans, please keep an eye on your brother and his 'good friend' and stop harassing me! If anything happens to my mom and me in the future, I'll blame them both!]
This reply was like a depth bomb, instantly breaking the defenses of Yue Jingchen's fans and their CP fans.
[Wow, my Qingchen CP... is completely broken...]
Oh my god! That stuffed doll! I made it! I made a pair and gave them to Yue Jingchen at an offline event! I was so happy for so long I thought I'd gotten one! I'm sorry, sister! I was blind! [Screenshot of the offline gift-giving video.jpg][Picture of the happy celebration.jpg]]
The fan who personally gave away the puppet doll came forward to tell his story and presented irrefutable evidence, completely proving the relationship between Yue Jingchen and Gao Panpan.
——
Yue Jingchen stared at the trending search terms on his phone screen with a gloomy expression:
#Shi Qing receives death threats#
#Yue Jingchen Gao Panpan's relationship confirmed#
He threw his phone on the seat in annoyance and cursed silently.
He knew his own limitations. Over the years, thanks to the company's hard work, his acting roles had become less and less effective, so he was thinking of rehashing old dramas and hoping to regain more resources by collaborating with Shi Qing.
But isn't every drama Shi Qing stars in a hit? Why did their next collaboration flop?
In the end, he was able to get away by putting the blame on Shi Qing.
Now, after Shi Qing's blow, his image was shattered into pieces, and his fan base was visibly in turmoil.
Shi Qing...who is behind her?
How come Shi Qing, who used to be so stubborn as to not say a word when she was suppressed, suddenly became so tough?
But the most urgent question now is why Gao Panpan is doing this? Is she out of her mind? Qingling Video is in turmoil, her father has been removed from the shareholders' meeting, and Danhao Entertainment is suspected of filing for bankruptcy. And yet she's still trying to provoke Shi Qing!
The car stopped in front of Gao Panpan's villa and the password was entered to open the door.
A strong smell of incense hit me in the face, almost suffocating me.
The floor-to-ceiling windows were covered by heavy curtains, and the huge living room was lit by only a dim floor lamp, the light barely outlining the contours of the furniture.
The moment Yue Jingchen saw the scene in the center of the living room, his anger was like being poured over by a bucket of ice water.
Gao Panpan was wearing a white silk suspender nightgown, sitting cross-legged barefoot on the carpet with her back to the door.
His long hair covered most of his face, and his figure was slightly hunched, exuding an indescribable sense of weirdness.
In her hand, she was holding a rag doll wearing the costume of the male lead from "The Fairy in the Clouds" and was combing the doll's hair very slowly with her head down.
Yue Jingchen thought of the photos Shi Qing posted. Although most of them were blurred, one could still see how cruel they were.
The hairs on his back stood up instantly, and he almost held his breath to suppress the urge to run away.
The voice trembled: "Pan...Panpan?"
Gao Panpan paused in combing the puppet's hair.
She didn't turn around immediately, but slowly turned her face to the side, a few strands of hair fell down, and her eyes stared straight at Yue Jingchen, with madness surging in them.
Hoarsely said: "You are here."
Yue Jingchen forced himself to suppress the fear in his heart and tried to keep his voice steady. "Panpan, why...why did you send that package to Shi Qing?! The internet is going viral! The police are even here!"
Gao Panpan did not answer his question.
She slowly stood up from the carpet, still holding the rag doll in her hand, and walked towards him step by step.
She raised her hand and held the rag doll in front of Yue Jingchen, almost poking his nose.
"Then tell me." Her voice suddenly rose, with a sharp crack, "Why do you keep this doll?!"
She tightened her fingers, and the doll's face twisted and deformed under her fingers, "Yue Jingchen! I like you! But I'm not stupid!"
"This doll was found in your treasured box! It contains so many things about Shi Qing!" Gao Panpan screamed hysterically.
"If you weren't still thinking about that bitch! Would I target her like this? Would I be killed by that disgusting man... Would my family become like this? It's all because of you!"
Yue Jingchen was frightened by her crazy look and took a step back, his heart pounding.
He felt helpless: He had already explained his relationship with Shi Qing, but she wouldn't listen. He had tried to stop her that day, telling her to just send someone else, but she wouldn't listen either. Now that it had become like this, was he to blame?
But he knew that even though the Gao family's current situation was unclear, Gao Panpan needed to be stabilized.
A helpless and affectionate expression quickly appeared on his face, and he tried to grab Gao Panpan's hand.
"Panpan, listen to me! I really haven't had those feelings for Shi Qing for a long time!" Her voice was soft and gentle, with a hint of deliberate grievance. "There's nothing innocent between her and me! I just kept that doll as a souvenir, to commemorate my first time playing the male lead in a fairy tale drama, that's all!"
Gao Panpan gasped, her chest heaving violently. She didn't break free from Yue Jingchen's hand, but stared at him intently, her mouth curled into an extremely ironic arc.
"Heh..." She sneered, suddenly raised her other hand, and poked Yue Jingchen's chest fiercely with her fingers. "Yue Jingchen, don't forget, you were able to successfully terminate your contract with Danhao. Who paid the penalty for breach of contract for you? Who used your connections to save you from being branded as ungrateful? It was me!"
Yue Jingchen felt pain and frowned slightly, but immediately relaxed.
He quickly grabbed Gao Panpan's fingers that were poking his chest, and with deliberate gentleness, he gently pressed a kiss on her fingertips.
"Of course I remember, Panpan." Her voice was deep, magnetic, and alluring. "I remember everything you've done for me. I'm just too worried about you! It's too risky for you to do this! Shi Qing is different now. Who knows who's behind her? I'm afraid something might happen to you!"
