"These must be rumors, like the ones about his appearance. He doesn’t have a twisted nose, as they said!" Qiao Nian facepald herself.
The rumors she read online were very detailed in describing how ugly Shentu Chu was. They said that his eyes were tiny, his eyebrows bushy, he had a huge mole on his cheek, and his lips and nose were crooked. He was hunchbacked, had a potbelly, fat hairy legs, and stunk like piled-up garbage in a landfill.
Qiao Nian checked the accounts on Weibo that spread all those things. She found out that soone was purposely spreading them. But who?
Not much was revealed about Shentu Chu’s life, so Qiao Nian could only spy on her soon-to-be husband. If he turned out to be like what the rumors said, then she’d cry and complain to Grandpa to cancel the wedding. Or she’d run away from the wedding.
She was still young, after all. She still had ambitions and goals.
"Young miss, even if they’re false, you need to be careful. There are pictures of him in nightclubs and brothels on the internet," her maid, Su i, said.
"Really? I rember last ti we searched, there was no trace of him online. Why are his pictures suddenly posted online?" Qiao Nian beca even more suspicious.
Su i shrugged.
A person who originally kept a low profile suddenly went viral online? It was just two months away from the wedding. This was too much of a coincidence.
"Take a look, young miss," Su i said, taking out her phone, logging into Weibo, and showing her the images.
It was really pictures of Shentu Chu at a nightclub, surrounded by scantily clad won. He looked like he was having fun.
Were the rumors real?
The shots were taken from under the table and so from above at an angle where other people wouldn’t see the cara.
There were also videos of them dancing.
"There’s more on Douyin, Kuaishou, and Xiaohongshu," Su i said, feeling sorry for her young miss.
Horror was written across Qiao Nian’s face.
It seed like her future husband was a scumbag.
Shentu Chu walked into a park near one of the shopping malls. Qiao Nian and Su i followed him. So people behind them stared at her suspiciously. She resembled a wife trying to catch her husband cheating.
Crunch!
Qiao Nian accidentally tripped over a branch.
"Ahhh!" she yelped and fell into a bush.
"Young miss!" Su i quickly rushed to her rescue.
Shentu Chu heard movents behind him and went to take a look. Qiao Nian popped out of the bush, startling him. She looked up at him and saw him frowning.
"Uh, hi? I accidentally tripped and fell," she chuckled nervously, trying to act like she hadn’t been caught spying on him.
"Let help you, miss," Shentu Chu said, looking at her suspiciously before swinging her arm over his shoulders.
Su i caught up to them, hands on her knees.
"Young miss, are you okay?!"
Then Shentu Chu put a hand on her waist and hauled her up from the bush. He set her down on the green grass, her feet touching the soft pasture.
"Thanks," she muttered.
Su i quickly rushed over to help her. Shentu Chu raised an eyebrow and then pointed at her body.
She looked at where he was pointing. It was her chest! Pervert!
Having been affected by those scandalous images she saw of him online, Qiao Nian beca frightened!
"Pervert! Stay away from !" she yelled at him.
Shentu Chu was taken aback! He could only blink his eyes at her sudden change. His fingers were still pointing at her before he realized that it might have been the culprit that offended her.
He slowly lowered his arm, his face expressionless.
"Go away! You big fat pervert!" Qiao Nian acted as if he were a frightening monster with horns on his head. She refused to let him co any closer.
Maybe those rumors were true!
"No, miss. What I want to say is, there’s a caterpillar on your shoulder."
"What?!" Qiao Nian shrieked.
"Young miss, there’s really a caterpillar on your shoulder!" Su i pointed and shouted.
"Ah!" Qiao Nian jumped back and panicked.
"Get it off ! Get it off !" She was close to tears. Qiao Nian hated creepy crawlies the most. They were her worst nightmare.
"Stop moving. Let remove it," Shentu Chu said.
Qiao Nian stopped moving, her eyes squeezed shut.
"Take it off, please," Qiao Nian said in a weak, small voice.
Shentu Chu couldn’t help but chuckle at her expression.
Qiao Nian opened one eye to see if the trouble was gone. All she saw was Shentu Chu’s face.
"Is it gone?" she asked in a weak, small voice.
"It’s gone. Are you alright, miss? You seem to have gotten a terrible scare," Shentu Chu gazed at her intently. He had removed the caterpillar and wiped his hands with a tissue.
His ring glowed a soft red tone. It was ti to execute the plan.
"Young miss, it’s gone!" Su i cried happily.
Qiao Nian finally opened her eyes to see Shentu Chu walking away. She stared at his receding figure, the sun shining upon his hair and suit.
She was confused. He’s a pervert, right? Then why didn’t he take advantage of her or invite her to a al like in those novels?
Shentu Chu went to his car and sat down. He pressed his ring, and a voice spoke through.
"Mr. Chu, it’s all done."
"Good. How’s the thing I told you to do?" From far away, Shentu Chu looked like he was resting his chin on his hands.
"I’ve spread those rumors everywhere. Miss Qiao and the Qiao family wouldn’t dare to let you marry into the family that way!"
Qin Zhuzhu went to collect letters for her mother at their old mailbox address.
"I wonder why Mom refused to move to a new one," she sighed.
Suddenly, a hand latched onto her arm! Qin Zhuzhu’s heart almost jumped out. She squinted her eyes, recognizing the owner of the hand.
"Miss Ning?" Qin Zhuzhu’s eyes widened.
"Co here!" Ning Ning pulled her into a dark corner.
