The lightning at the Zhu villa struck so hard that its remnants of zapping sparkles and crackling still lingered in the air. The question dropped on everybody like a nuclear bomb, its blasting waves toppling everything in its way into smithereens.
Chyou blankly stared at her father, his words not making any sense to her. But the most riled up was Yin, who now seed to have completely sobered up.
"Wh…What is this accusation against ? I-It's preposterous! Mr. Zhu, you cannot question my fidelity towards Chyou like that that…"
Xiaosi's gaze turned cold. "Clearly, you aren't questioning your conduct so sobody has to, right?"
Caihong held his arm and lightly squeezed it. "Xiaosi, what is going on?" She whispered in a voice that shook and trembled.
Xiang and Yating, too, were in a similar state. It was the little brother who exploded alarmingly. "You cheated on my sister, you fucking bastard!?"
"That's all a lie! That's what I am telling you! I don't know who poisoned Mr. Zhu's ears against -" his gaze then darkened. "Don't tell that Gu Yating-"
"You bla once again and you will face the consequences," Yating's icy tone fell.
He glared at him. "Then who else could it be!? I cannot believe you would go so far…"
Xiaosi's one step towards him made him turn towards him with sweat dripping down his forehead. "You are the one who went too far. And with the woman who put my daughter in the scandal in the first place."
Chyou took trembling steps towards him, her blurry eyes dimming her clear vision. "There is a big misunderstanding here, Dad. Yin wouldn't do this."
He stared into her fearful gaze that was desperately holding onto the last straw of hope. Trust shone in her eyes but at the sa ti, an impending doom clouded them.
"This has co too far, Chyou. This despicable man standing before us has not only broken his trust towards you to beco clean but had the shaless courage to sleep with another woman just to get back at you. I am not the only one to say this."
"Hey! Let go! What is this rough handling!?"
Yin's manager, Qiao Kang, was harshly pushed inside the villa. Not just him but a woman followed right him who was confused as hell. Tears brimd down her face as she cried. "What is going on?"
Chyou stared unblinkingly at the manager and the woman, who was none other one of the assistants working on the sets, Qiu. If she was here, then Chyou could figure why she would be brought here, yet her mind was refusing to make that condition.
Yin froze at their sight, especially as his gaze fell on Qiu. It was as if sobody forcibly sucked out the remaining color he had on his face.
Xiang gritted his teeth. "Why do you look like you have seen a ghost, Cheng Yin?"
"It's n-nothing like that…! I don't even understand why they are here."
"Then let's get an answer from them," he sneered. "Qiao Kang. Why are you brought here?"
Qiao Kang froze. With Qiu standing beside him and the air of confrontation quite visible, he struggled to speak. "I…I don't know either…" he t Yin's gaze who was desperately trying to signal him sothing.
"Isn't it because you are keeping your actor's little secret!?" He lashed out.
"No! I-I have…"
He shuddered hard as he sensed a killing intent from Xiaosi's direction. The remaining words couldn't pass from beyond his throat.
"You know, Mr. Qiao. The actor you are managing is very vocal about my daughter's fidelity and conduct. He keeps questioning her love and loyalty so I thought if things are reaching this far, then I should bring his own loyalty into the light too. Do you think I am right or wrong?"
Who in the world would dare say that Zhu Xiaosi was wrong?
He could only stamr. "Y-Yes…"
"Perfect. So now that we have that common understanding, let's talk about what really has happened."
He swallowed a painful lump down his throat.
"That night when Chyou t Yating in the club and then they went to the ice cream shop and watched the fireworks together, there was a sneaky little soone who was capturing their candid and harmless monts. That was you, wasn't you?"
His gaze fell on Qiu that spoke the stated truth instead of trying to question her.
Qiu's face paled. She could hardly keep up with her balance now that she directly faced the one and only Zhu Xiaosi. "I really d-don't know what you are talking-"
"Be very careful when you are talking to . You do realize who I am, right? You are the one who took the pictures. I know because I personally tracked you down. Or do you doubt the technical capabilities of S3's CEO?"
Tears rolled down her cheeks and words simply failed to co out.
"I can prove it even now. You have that pictures in your phone. So if you feel that you are so innocent then by all ans, please feel free to prove it."
She imdiately her clutched her phone harder.
Yating's black eyes chilled like frozen ice. "You are the one who released those pictures to the dia?"
Now it wasn't just Xiaosi mounting the pressure but the heir of the Gu family as well. Her chest puffed with breathlessness.
"Answer !" Yating roared. "Who fucking gave you the right to intrude upon Chyou and my privacy? You twisted the hell out of a simple evening's aning and NOW you are trembling and looking down as if you made a huge blunder? You almost tarnished Chyou's reputation!"
Qiu's knees were shaking as if they were now a jelly.
Xiaosi said, "Tarnished Chyou's reputation and then approached Cheng Yin with those sa pictures too. You gave him a good, sympathetic shoulder to cry on and expertly, filled his ears with nonsense too. A boyfriend who was devastated to see his girlfriend fooling out with another man. So he thought if Chyou could do it, so can I."
