The scene erupted in uproar.
"My God, Qiao Wanwan's leg was crippled because she saved Gu Xulin?"
"Gu Xulin is such a scoundrel! At that time, Qiao Wanwan was his fiancée. She was seriously injured and lying in a hospital bed while saving him, and he was having an affair with Qiao Yuqi?"
"To be frank, Gu Xulin is a total jerk. Putting everything else aside, Qiao Wanwan got injured like this to save him, so she must have been head over heels in love with him. All her sincerity was met with betrayal!"
"Has no one noticed that Qiao Yuqi is a mistress?"
"So, they really are a scumbag and a despicable person!"
"I'm starting to feel sorry for Qiao Wanwan..."
Hearing the guests' discussions, Qiao Yuqi turned pale with anger and pointed at Qiao Wanwan, "It was her, Brother Xulin, it must have been her!"
Qiao Wanwan raised an eyebrow. "You think I forced you two to cheat on me? Qiao Yuqi, how could you say that?"
Qiao Yuqi gritted her teeth in hatred, but she couldn't ruin her innocent and kind persona, so she could only cry and beg for help, "Brother Xulin, look at her!"
Gu Xulin frantically racked his brains for a solution, but found that he had no way to defend himself.
This conversation was incredibly revealing, directly implicating him and Qiao Yuqi in their crimes!
Qiao Wanwan is really ruthless!
Qiao Yuqi tried to calm herself down and said, "Wanwan, it's a fact that you had a relationship with this wheelchair-bound man before your engagement, right? You were never good enough for Brother Xulin, so why did you have to cause such a scene today!"
Qiao Wanwan stood up, clapped her hands twice, and raised her voice, "You two, come in here."
Two shifty-eyed men walked in through the door. Qiao Yuqi glanced at them and her face turned pale.
Qiao Wanwan glanced at her indifferently, "Qiao Yuqi, are you nervous?"
"Why should I be nervous?" Qiao Yuqi collected her thoughts and said, "Wanwan, what do you want with these two men? Are you trying to frame me?"
"You're quick-witted, turning the tables on me so fast. But don't even think about denying it today." Qiao Wanwan raised her voice and said, "Everyone, I, Qiao Wanwan, am not someone who can't let go of things, but right and wrong must be made clear. I won't take the blame for some things, and don't even think about throwing mud at me."
"I had sex with this man on the eve of my engagement, but it was all a setup by Qiao Yuqi. She drugged me and made these two men humiliate me. But these two men only cared about money, and they immediately sold me to someone else!"
The scene erupted in commotion, with guests discussing the matter.
"Nonsense, you're talking nonsense!" Qiao Yuqi denied it outright. "Wanwan, you're really crazy! Just because you're jealous that I can marry Brother Xulin, you've randomly picked two men to frame me!"
"The witnesses are all here, and you still won't admit it, huh?" Qiao Wanwan calmly took out a cell phone from her pocket. "This is my phone. Before you drugged me, I pressed the record button. Do you need me to play it back so everyone can hear how you ordered them to harm me?"
Qiao Yuqi's face turned pale instantly. "No, that's not how it is! Wanwan, let me explain!"
Qiao Wanwan's cold, sharp eyes fixed on her face. "Now you're willing to admit it?"
"I...I..." Qiao Yuqi stared at her phone, then suddenly reached out and snatched it away with lightning speed, slamming it against the wall.
The phone fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Qiao Wanwan tilted her head. "Actually, I lied to you just now. I didn't have time to record anything, and my phone was stolen and wiped clean by the two of them, so even if I had a recording, it's gone."
"Qiao Yuqi, the fact that you stole my phone and destroyed it proves that you have a guilty conscience."
Qiao Yuqi's chest heaved with anger, and tears streamed down her face as she felt wronged. "Wanwan, I just wanted to stop you from causing trouble. I wasn't feeling guilty at all!"
"Everyone here is a smart person. Do you think they'll believe what you're saying?"
The guests' gazes toward Qiao Yuqi changed slightly, but out of consideration for the Gu family's reputation, they refrained from saying anything.
Qiao Wanwan continued, "Qiao Yuqi, if I had known Gu Xulin was such a scoundrel, would I have fallen for him? If you had told me sooner, I would have been more than happy to give this piece of trash to you, but you shouldn't have hurt me like this!"
Qiao Yuqi gritted her teeth secretly, feeling somewhat at a loss.
The Gu family is a prominent and wealthy family in the capital. Now, their engagement banquet has been turned into a complete mess, and they have lost all face.
Gu Xulin's father, Gu Yanfeng, said coldly, "Men, throw this troublemaking woman out!"
Qiao Wanwan laughed out loud, "Young Master Gu has no way to defend himself, and President Gu is so angry that he's going to throw me out? Are you even thinking of killing me to silence me?"
Gu Yanfeng narrowed his eyes. "You think I wouldn't dare?"
"With President Gu's abilities, of course he would dare."
"It's good that you know."
Gu Yanfeng raised his hand, and two bodyguards immediately came over. Just as they were about to pull Qiao Wanwan away, a deep, cold voice suddenly rang out, "Who dares to touch her?"
The voice was extremely oppressive, sending chills down one's spine.
Everyone turned to look at the man in the wheelchair. He hadn't uttered a word since Qiao Wanwan's comment, but his presence was undeniable.
Zhan Jingting walked to Qiao Wanwan's side, took her hand, and then slowly looked at Gu Yanfeng, "Chairman Gu, always leave yourself some room for maneuver. You can't afford to mess with her."
Gu Yanfeng was stunned by the powerful aura emanating from the man in front of him. He had been in the business world for decades and had never seen a young man with such a strong aura.
He is also a disabled person who uses a wheelchair.
He thought for a moment and realized he didn't recognize the man, nor had he ever heard of a wealthy family's son being in a wheelchair. He figured the man's background wasn't that strong, and he felt much more at ease. He coldly said, "Qiao Wanwan, this is Platinum Palace, not a place where you can run wild. Now take this cripple and get out of here, or don't blame me for not giving your parents any face."
Zhan Jingting's lips curled slightly. "Who told you I can't run wild at Platinum Palace?"
Many people present laughed.
"Judging from your appearance, you probably haven't seen much of the world. Platinum Palace is the only seven-star hotel in China and is known as the top of the world's top ten hotels. This is not a place for a lowly person like you in a wheelchair to enter."
"Exactly! Only a family with the Gu family's status could book such a grand engagement banquet at the last minute. We were only allowed in with our invitations and verified identities. You must have sneaked in by taking advantage of the chaos!"
"You know what, he and Qiao Wanwan, one disabled and one lame, are actually quite a good match."
Those who fawned over the Gu family immediately chimed in, "There's no harm without comparison! Look at Young Master Gu and Qiao Yuqi, a perfect couple, while these two are just a pair of clowns..."
A glint of malice flashed in Gu Xulin's eyes. "Qiao Wanwan, I thought you were quite capable. Even though you're crippled, you're still the daughter of the Qiao family. How could you stoop so low and find such a man?"
"I don't even need to kick them out myself. Someone, go find the hotel manager. I want to know how this kind of person got in here."
Qiao Wanwan frowned. It didn't matter that she was kicked out, but men all had pride, especially men like Zhan Jingting who were physically disabled and sensitive. She didn't want him to be humiliated.
Qiao Wanwan immediately said, "Let's go."
"No need." Zhan Jingting squeezed her hand, his voice low and gentle, "Wanwan, don't be afraid. I won't let any of those who hurt you get away with it."
