She was going to turn five years of passionate love into reality.
She was beautiful and affectionate, and also kind and brave. Not long after, Li Zecheng fell for her.
… .
Qiao An sighed softly. So online dating was really risky.
A few days later, an article titled “A well-known corporate successor cheated with a well-known female celebrity, abused his wife, and her wife jumped off a building in depression and survived!” was accompanied by a selfie of half of Qiao An’s face. Her cheeks were red and swollen, and the corners of his mouth were cracked. It spread on the trending searches.
Although the article did not name anyone, combined with the recent kidnapping case of the Li Corporation and Qiao An’s profile photo, almost everyone’s condemnation pointed to Li Zecheng and Wei Xin.
With pictures and the truth, the netizens would not pursue the cause and effect of this article. The public opinion of Wei Xin instantly changed. Originally, Wei Xin was the national goddess with the face of a first love, but now, countless vicious words flooded her Weibo.
“Let me make a bold guess. Could it be that this famous female celebrity is the female celebrity who was kidnapped with the wife of a certain big shot a few days ago? So the scumbag who abused his wife is that Li guy?” This piece of public opinion was deliberately directed by Qiao An’s fake reviewers.
With this comment, the crowd began to curse.
“Wei XIn can’t act in anything. It turns out that she’s focused on competing with the big shot for a man.”
“Are all mistresses so arrogant these days? They even forced the main wife to jump off a building? It’s simply refreshing my worldview.”
Qiao An lay leisurely on the bed, hugging her tablet. She almost laughed out loud when she saw the crowd turning on Li Zecheng and Wei Xin.
At the Li family villa.
Old Master Li threw the tablet at Li Zecheng and reprimanded him angrily, “Li Zecheng, didn’t I tell you to keep a distance from that Wei Xin? Yet, you keep sticking to Wei Xin. Nothing good ever happens when you’re with her.”
When Li Zecheng saw the contents of the trending topic, his handsome face darkened.
He explained to Old Master Li helplessly, “Grandpa, Qiao An threw a tantrum to take revenge on Wei Xin. You don’t have to take it to heart.”
The Old Master was furious. “Little temper? Li Zecheng, if you can’t eliminate the hatred in Qiao An’s heart, she will fight you for the rest of her life. Do you think this is a little temper?”
Li Zecheng’s face was gray with defeat.
His decisiveness in the business world disappeared. He really didn’t expect a woman to be so ruthless.
Old Master Li scolded, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and deal with this matter.”
Li Zecheng took out his phone and called his assistant. He scolded his assistant. “Did you eat shit? The topic has been trending for a few hours. Why didn’t you deal with it?”
The assistant’s trembling voice sounded. “CEO Li, I’ve been contacting the platform, hoping that they will quickly remove it. But for some reason, the people in charge of the platform have completely disappeared today. I really have no choice.”
Li Zecheng frowned. Years of business had cultivated his keen sense of judgement. It made him realize that Qiao An had the intention to do him in. The price he had to pay to remove the trending topic must be very high.
At the same time, Wei Xin was scolded by the onlookers until she could not raise her head. Wei Xin was afraid that this trending topic would ruin her career, so she could not hold it in.
After crying for a long time, she went out to drink again. The manager sent her series of pitiful acts to Li Zecheng.
He drove to the hospital in the middle of the night.
When the nurse saw him rushing towards Qiao An’s ward with a murderous aura, she quickly stepped forward to stop him.
‘Aye, sir, you can’t. The patient’s resting.’
Li Zecheng said with a dark expression, “I’m her husband. Can’t I come to visit my wife?”
Qiao An heard Li Zecheng’s cold voice and gripped the blanket tightly, her toes gripping the bed board tightly. Her clear doe eyes glowed coldly in the night.
That was quick.
After adjusting her nerves, Qiao An secretly turned on the phone’s recording function and turned on the camera as well.
Then, she sat up in bed and looked coldly at Li Zecheng, who had barged in angrily.
“How rare to see you this late,” Qiao An said sarcastically.
Wearing a white cotton nightdress, her skin was as fair as snow. Under the hazy moonlight, she was like a fairy descending to the mortal world.
His handsome face drooped as he questioned unhappily, “Were you behind today’s trending topic?”
“Which article are you referring to?” Qiao An asked even though she knew the answer. It was just to lure him into revealing more explosive news.
“Qiao An, don’t play dumb with me. What good will it do you if you make Wei Xin and me trend? Let me tell you, Wei Xin’s future will be ruined because of this, and I’ve been reprimanded by Grandpa. I want you to remove the trending topic immediately.”
Qiao An examined Li Zecheng and said with an unruly smile, “Li Zecheng, tell me, what exactly is your relationship with Wei Xin? Are you an ex-lover who still has feelings for her, or is it a sneaky underground love? Why are you so good to her? Her future is ruined, and that’s what she deserves. What does it have to do with you?”
Li Zecheng stopped Qiao An from spouting nonsense. “Wei Xin and I are just friends.”
Qiao An had a look of disbelief on her face as he chuckled. “Friends? Oh, this friend is really special to you. She made you give up your wife’s life to protect her. She made you come to me in the middle of the night to eliminate any obstacles in her career. Li Zecheng, you’re really lucky to have an infatuated girl like me who loves you wholeheartedly. You even have a confidante like Wei Xin.”
Li Zecheng’s face darkened. “Qiao An, my relationship with Wei Xin is not something you can guess.”
“Because it’s shady?” Qiao An scoffed.
Li Zecheng gritted his teeth in anger. “Qiao An, I’m not here to discuss my private life with you. I’m here to warn you to remove the trending topic immediately. Otherwise, we’ll all be finished.”
Qiao An looked at Li Zecheng with a terrifying gaze and sneered. “Li Zecheng, I’m already finished. And you’re right, you’ll also be finished. There’s no reason for me to experience the pain of being crushed to pieces alone and let you two culprits get away with it.”
Li Zecheng stared blankly at the sinister and terrifying Qiao An. Only now did he realize how much Qiao An hated him.
He glared at Qiao An. “Unreasonable.”
Then he left angrily.
