She suddenly stood up, slipped on her slippers, and ran to Fu Qingruo's room.
"What is it?" Seeing her barging in, Fu Qingruo no longer had a cold and angry expression.
Perhaps it's a change in mindset; to her now, Yi Tianran is family.
Therefore, there's no need to worry too much.
"Big sister—" Yi Tianran ran up to her quickly and handed her the phone screen. "Do you recognize this person in the photo?"
Fu Qingruo looked down for a moment, her expression somewhat subtle and complicated. "This is the person who pursued me back then. You recognize him too?"
Yi Tianran: "!!!"
"Zhuang, Yi, Zhan! You son of a bitch!"
You've kept this from me for so long, and you still haven't confessed. You're dead meat!
...
In contrast to the "joyful atmosphere" on Yi Tianran's side, the entire Yi family was in deep trouble.
Yi Youyou's incident has blown up too much. On a live broadcast program with a total of 1 billion views, not only was her true face exposed, but videos of her being promiscuous, selling her body, and engaging in unspeakable acts with men were also played.
This can be described as a true social death.
From now on, every time she steps out of her house, she will be recognized, pointed at, and shamed as a slut. The stain on her will never be washed away.
Yi Hai never expected that his attempt to steal a chicken would backfire so badly. Not only did he fail to win the award and rebuild the Yi family, he also lost a huge sum of money trying to win the award.
To make matters worse, Yi Laosan added fuel to the fire at the meeting: "Second brother! I'm not trying to be mean, but how exactly did you raise your daughter? Now do you know how people outside are mocking our Yi family? They say the daughters we raise are all sluts, only good for sleeping with men!"
These words, seemingly directed at Yi Hai, are actually an indirect criticism of Boss Yi.
The eldest son of the Yi family was quite composed and ignored his sarcastic remarks.
Yi Hai couldn't hold back any longer and roared, "What's so great about your son? Isn't he just a lecherous playboy? And he's practically half-dead too."
"You..." Old Man Yi's face turned a deep purplish-red in an instant. "Don't forget, this incident was caused by your daughter, and it has brought a negative impact on the reputation of our Yi family. What do you plan to do now?"
Yi Hai clutched his head in exasperation.
In fact, Yi Youyou is now a discarded pawn and will not be of any use in the future.
Therefore, the best approach is to discard it.
However, he couldn't possibly be as ruthless as his boss, otherwise Liu Ruyi would definitely be the first to lash out.
After all, he was the only bloodline between the couple.
He ultimately decided, "I will announce to the public that she suffers from a mental illness and needs to recuperate in the hospital for a long time. I will not let her go out and cause trouble again."
"That's it?" Yi Laosan was not satisfied. "Second brother, can't you show some courage to make a tough decision? The eldest brother sent Yi Lianxue away and left her to fend for herself. Can't you follow suit?"
Yi Hai hardened his fist: "Shut up! If my brother and I made the same choice, then the outside world would laugh at us to death."
"Alright, uncles, you don't need to worry about such a small matter." The only person affected was Yi Qilin. "I will find a way to prevent things from getting worse and spreading. If the stock price drops, I will make up for it with my own money."
Compared to the dejected appearance of the elders, Yi Qilin's demeanor was one of complete confidence.
He seemed to have been prepared for this for a long time.
Despite being just a junior, his words were convincing, as if any crisis could be overcome with his presence.
...
Ever since Yi Tianran learned that Fu Qingruo's suitor was Zhuang Yizhan, all the details of the past came flooding back into her mind.
Zhuang Yizhan's ambiguous words, his change in attitude, and his brotherly demeanor towards the Fu brothers all contributed to the situation.
It turns out that his constant efforts to matchmake himself with Fu Yunchen were ultimately aimed at getting closer to his goddess!
I never imagined that one day I would become a tool to be used.
Yi Tianran's fist hardened.
She hadn't even had time to confront Zhuang Yizhan, but unexpectedly, less than two days later, he actually came to her door.
Yi Tianran immediately rubbed her hands together, and said to the butler who came to report, "Please ask him to come to the fifth floor to see me, and tell him that I have a huge surprise for him."
The housekeeper didn't quite understand.
Isn't the fifth floor supposed to be a "practice room"?
However, he still relayed the exact words to Zhuang Yizhan.
"Oh? She's preparing a surprise? More like a shock! Wait, maybe she's going to announce to me that she and Fu Yunchen are officially together. Is she inviting me to her wedding?"
Zhuang Yizhan arrived at the fifth floor with a smile on his face. As soon as he opened the door, he was attacked from behind, his neck grabbed and the grip tightened.
"You bastard who values women over friends! You knew perfectly well that your goddess was Fu Qingruo, yet you dared to hide it from me. You deserve a beating!" A cold female voice slowly rang out.
Zhuang Yizhan struggled desperately, his face turning completely red. "I...I...was...wrong! Spare me! Cough cough...I'm...dying."
Yi Tianran clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction, released his neck, and without giving him a chance to catch his breath, grabbed one of his arms and gave him a hard over-the-shoulder throw.
With a loud "bang."
The sound of flesh hitting the floor was so loud it almost knocked the clock off the wall.
Zhuang Yizhan winced in pain, but knowing he was in the wrong, he did not resist.
It took him a while to recover. "I was just worried that things would get too awkward. I was thinking of telling you after I won over my crush."
"Hehe." Yi Tianran chuckled sarcastically, "Goddess, I love you, you can even come up with such a cheesy client name, your skin is as thick as a city wall, are you afraid of being embarrassed?"
"Huh?" Zhuang Yizhan said in astonishment, "So that show really was produced by you! Now, although the goddess has regained her reputation, she's been exposed, and I have thousands, even tens of thousands, more rivals in love with her!"
Yi Tianran looked down at him with obvious disdain, "What rival? You don't even dare to approach her again, you can only send gifts and comforting letters, no wonder you can't win her over."
Zhuang Yizhan, however, said with a profound and inscrutable expression, "You don't understand. This is called a gentle, continuous flow, nourishing things silently."
Yi Tianran glanced meaningfully at the doorway: "You're so knowledgeable, don't tell me you have a lot of dating experience?"
Zhuang Yizhan scrambled to his feet in an instant, shamelessly declaring, "Don't talk nonsense, Fu Qingruo is my first love!"
Yi Tianran smiled and shouted towards the door, "Big sister, you heard that too! This simp is confessing his love to you again."
Fu Qingruo: "...!!"
She originally intended to pretend she hadn't heard anything and just walk by, but she never expected Yi Tianran to deliberately cause trouble.
Zhuang Yizhan stiffened his neck and turned around like a robot. The moment he saw Fu Qingruo, his cheeks turned as red as apples, and his fingers clenched into fists.
This innocent demeanor truly surprised Yi Tianran.
