Over the next few days, Luosang spent time at home packing her things. She also went shopping for things that she lacked. She spent her free time reading about gossip at home.

After she came back, Zhong Yi’s photo at the club was circulated online and remained as one of the top searches for many days to come. Even Sister Lan, who didn’t know about the entire situation, had something negative to say about her. “Zhong Yi… Ah, she looks like a nice and innocent girl on the television. I never would have thought that she was such a shameless person. I can’t believe she’s so popular. Something is seriously wrong with our entertainment industry.”

Luosang looked over at her. Sister Lan was on WeChat as she continued, “Look, look! She is trending number one on WeChat. It’s about her scandal. It says that she has been sleeping around with investors. Look at these photos! She looks absolutely wasted and indecently dressed leaning against this man. Look at the man. Even I wouldn’t go for that. Celebrities nowadays will do anything to gain popularity.”

Luosang was giggling as she munched on sunflower seeds. Sister Lan would never have guessed that she was the one who had taken the photo.

“She should be blocked, blocked from any future jobs,” Sister Lan protested. “I heard she had a boyfriend, too. How could she two-time her boyfriend? I heard that her boyfriend is scum, as well. He’s the CEO of an entertainment company, and he always makes his artists sleep with his investors for his own profit. What a scumbag.”

“How do you know so much, Sister Lan?” Luosang teased her playfully.

“My friends have been reposting this story. There are so many articles, and it’s quite exciting,” Sister Lan said. “There are many comment threads on the posts as well, and I read them all.”

“You’re really up to date, Sister Lan.” Luosang gave her a thumbs up.

“Of course, I have to keep up with the times.” Sister Lan turned to do her chores.

After lunch, Luosang emerged from the washroom, and she overheard Sister Lan talking to her friend over the phone about the article again. She thought that Zhong Yi was really finished this time. The power of the internet was formidable in this day and age. There were many others like Sister Lan, so there was no redeeming herself now.

She thought more about what had happened, and she went back to her room to edit the clip that she had recorded. When she was done, she quickly hit the send button and emailed it to Yi Jingxi.

At the Yi Group.

When Yi Jingxi saw Luosang’s email in his inbox, his heart fluttered in excitement, but when he opened the file, he heard another familiar voice. “Luosang, he instructed me to do all those things.”

“He asked you to bring me to Gu Feng and accompany Mr. Lin that night?”

“Yes, it was all him. You know how much he detests you! He arranged for you to be my assistant as well.”

The clip ended.

Yi Jingxi quickly dialed Luosang’s number. He was pleasantly surprised when the call connected.

“Yi Jingxi…”

“What exactly happened at Gu Feng…?”

Luosang chuckled. “Zhong Yi purposely made me drunk along with Mr. Lin, and he proceeded to try to rape me. Nian Junting saved me that night. Otherwise, I would truly have become a wretched soul. Yi Jingxi, you really found a good actress to play the role in your show. I went to visit my dad as well, just to let you know. I know he was framed. One day, I will find out exactly what you did to him.” She hung up after saying her piece.

Yi Jingxi stood up and paced around his office. He kicked the leg of the coffee table several times until the table was smashed.

“Mr. Yi.” Zeng Zhun rushed into his office. He was shocked to see the mess in the center of the room.

“Tell Zhong Yi to come back here at once! If she refuses, tie her up and bring her here to me.”

After three hours, Zhong Yi was dragged into the office. When she saw how dark and cold Yi Jingxi’s expression was, she shuddered in fear. His handsome features were contorted in a twisted manner.

“Jingxi…”
