“You can leave first,” Qin Chu said to Yang before coldly glancing at Song Yishi. “What do you want?”
“Qin Chu, you’re the only one who can help me now. My dad’s in Jing City for work and he can’t come back. You’re the one I trust most aside from my dad, so you have to help me!”
“What is it?” Qin Chu felt annoyed upon seeing Song Yishi’s teary eyes; he hated women who used their tears to evoke sympathy.
Mian would never do something like that…
“Did you see the news?”
“What news?”
“The one about me and Huo Siqian…”
“No.”
“Here’s what happened, Huo Siqian framed me. He manipulated me for his own benefit and is forcing me into marrying him because of my dad’s status. I don’t want to marry him, but rumors are flying all over the place right now, and I can’t even clear my own name. Can you help me out?”
After a moment of silence, Song Yishi almost dropped dead at Qin Chu’s reply.
He said, “I think you and Huo Siqian make a good couple.”
Her face turned green as she smiled awkwardly. “Qin Chu, are you… joking with me?”
“I never joke with people I’m not close with,” Qin Chu said in all seriousness.
“But I don’t like Huo Siqian.”
“Then why are there photos of the two of you in bed?” Qin Chu unlocked his phone and clicked open his WeChat friend circle, which was currently filled with photos and gossips about Song Yishi and Huo Siqian.
Then, he showed Song Yishi his phone, sending the latter into endless awkwardness.
Was there anything more tragic than the man she loved showing her a photo of her with another man? She didn’t think so.
Although nothing happened between her and Huo Siqian, who would believe her? People these days only believed in what they saw, so even if she tried to clarify things, it wouldn’t help.
“That’s because he framed me… Last night while I was at Seductive Fox, he told me he needed to talk to me, so I got onto his car. Then, he drugged me and took me to a hotel room. He basically raped me! I’m innocent, Huo Siqian framed me!”
“If that’s the case, you should tell that to the police…”
“I can’t, it’ll ruin my dad and my reputation.”
“There’s no use coming to me, I can’t help you.”
“I was hoping you could use your connections to push down the rumors. Then disclose a statement with me saying that we were together last night and that those photos were faked.”
“Sorry, but I can’t help you…”
“Qin Chu, please…” Song Yishi sobbed as she walked towards Qin Chu; she wanted to plunge herself into Qin Chu’s arms and cry… Perhaps that way, he might develop compassion towards her.
However, before she could reach him, Qin Chu suddenly moved aside, and Song Yishi’s head bumped into the reinforced glass wall with a ‘bang’…
Unprepared for the sudden crash, her eyes began seeing stars.
“Boss, what’s wrong?” Yang, who was standing outside, knocked and came in upon hearing noises…
“Yang, please escort our guest out.”
“Qin Chu, we’ve known each other for years, ever since we were children. Are you really going to…”
Before Song Yishi could finish, Qin Chu mercilessly interrupted her, “Allow me to correct you. I don’t know you very well. All you did was live at my house when you were young, and we barely interacted. Therefore, stop playing the emotional card with me, and stop saying stuff like that to mislead others.”
Upon hearing what he said, Song Yishi’s face fell, little by little… She never thought Qin Chu could be so heartless.
But why was he always so gentle towards Huo Mian? It seemed like he didn’t even have the heart to raise his voice at her.
Why? Why couldn’t she compare to Huo Mian?
“Miss Song, this way please…” Yang took the opportunity to walk up to Song Yishi, who had no choice but to cover her head and leave dejectedly.

Huo Mian was just about to go on lunch break when she received countless messages on her WeChat.
She picked up her phone and was immediately shocked by what she saw…
