Chapter 118: Secretly Taking Photos
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shen Qingyue approached Chi Ming’s side. “What’s on her phone?”
Seeing that Zhang Qianqian wasn’t cooperating, Chi Ming stated plainly, “She just took a photo of the underside of your skirt with her phone.”
Zhang Qianqian reacted as if her tail had been stepped on, her voice sharp. “You’re spouting nonsense! I’m a woman too, why would I take pictures of another woman for no reason?”
Chi Ming did not argue with her. He just watched her silently, his gaze intimidating.
Shen Qingyue intervened directly. “Chi Ming wouldn’t falsely accuse you. Show us your phone.”
Zhang Qianqian took a step back. “My phone is a private item. Why should I show it to you? Do you think bullying me earlier wasn’t enough? Now you want to embarrass me further? Shen Qingyue, being a person isn’t like this. Money doesn’t give you the right to do whatever you want. I’ve already apologized to you. Are you going to keep holding onto this? Seriously?”
Seeing her shamelessly defending herself and even turning things around, Shen Qingyue got a glimpse of what it meant for someone to lack shame.
Tang Fangmo was nearby and, upon hearing the dispute, walked over immediately. “What’s going on?”
Seeing Tang Fangmo, Zhang Qianqian felt a bit uneasy. After all, no matter who it was, everyone wanted to leave a good impression in front of someone they liked. But all of that had been ruined by Shen Qingyue!
Shen Qingyue did not bother with small talk and explained the situation straightforwardly.
Tang Fangmo gave a scrutinizing look. “Miss Zhang, could you open your phone’s photo album for us? If there’s anything inappropriate there, you can simply open the camera and show us the first photo.”
Zhang Qianqian retorted stubbornly, “I can’t show you the first photo in my album…”
Among the crowd, one girl could not stand it anymore and spoke up directly, “I saw you taking pictures of the food on the table just now. What’s so secretive about these things? Since you feel misunderstood, just open the album and take a look. Don’t end up with no face left in the end…” She did not originally want to meddle, but Zhang Qianqian had been causing trouble. Everyone was here to have fun; who liked troublemakers?
This remark directly blocked Zhang Qianqian’s excuse, leaving her at a loss for
Tang Fangmo’s tone grew stern, “Miss Zhang, don’t force me to take action. I don’t want to trend on social media, but that doesn’t mean I’m afraid of trouble. If you keep this up, I’ll have no choice but to call the police.”
Zhang Qianqian remained silent, but her demeanor weakened considerably.
Tang Fangmo stopped being polite and snatched the phone from her, “What’s the password?”
Zhang Qianqian still did not say anything.
Tang Fangmo tried entering his own birthday and unexpectedly unlocked it. He felt somewhat awkward and handed the phone to Shen Qingyue, saying, “Check it out.” If Zhang Qianqian had really taken those photos, he should not be the one looking at them.
Zhang Qianqian had not expected Tang Fangmo to unlock the phone so easily and was about to rush forward to snatch it, but Tang Fangmo stopped her.
Shen Qingyue glanced through the first few photos in the album, confirming they were indeed upskirt shots of her. She raised her head, her expression ice-cold, “Do you have anything else to say?”
With undeniable evidence before her, Zhang Qianqian dropped the act. She changed her tune, “Do you have any right to ask me? Since you’re Brother MO’s cousin, why didn’t you say so earlier? You embarrassed me? Are you feeling proud of yourself?”
Shen Qingyue couldn’t help but laugh out loud; what kind of world was this?
Tang Fangmo was even angrier, “I’m a public figure, and family information needs protection. You’re in the entertainment industry too. Don’t you have that basic knowledge? Besides, even if Qingyue wasn’t my sister, what’s it to you? Do you think you have the right to warn her? Who do you think you are?”
Realizing that she had lost all dignity in front of her beloved Tang Fangmo and now was being scolded by him like this, Zhang Qianqian lost her rationality. Considering that all of this was because of Shen Qingyue, she gritted her teeth and grabbed a glass of red wine from the table, moving toward Shen Qingyue.
Just as Zhang Qianqian was screaming her heart out, Shen Qingyue was busy deleting photos, including clearing the recycle bin and all backups on the cloud. As she finished deleting the photos and looked up, she saw a glass of red wine coming her way. She instinctively stepped back, and the cold wine did not hit her face but stained her white shirt.
But Zhang Qianqian still felt unsatisfied, gripping the glass of wine, wanting to hit Shen Qingyue’s head. However, before she could move, her wrist was seized. There was a snapping sound, as if bones were breaking.
Chi Ming’s whole aura had changed from the earlier cool demeanor; he turned intense, and the air around him seemed to freeze.
Zhang Qianqian was petrified by his gaze, her shrieks silenced. The excruciating pain left her pale, and she was drenched in cold sweat. In that moment, she felt like this man might actually kill her!
Seeing Chi Ming’s unsettling expression, Shen Qingyue immediately called out, “Chi Ming!”
