Chapter 431: Reversal

Qiao Liang said, “…Hospital! I’ll make you stay in the hospital! For a whole week!”

Tang Xi jumped up from the sofa and stared at Qiao Liang with wide open eyes. It had been quite a while before she curled her lips innocently. “I’m sorry I was wrong.” Seeing that Qiao Liang wasn’t moved by her words, she continued to implore him. She took Qiao Liang’s arm and shook it, and said imploringly, “Please~ don’t be angry. I promise I won’t do this again. I promise I will never act rashly if I’m not sure about my safety. Don’t be angry, okay?”

Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi who was so cute and wanted to reach out to rub her hair. But he resisted the urge and coldly said, “I don’t believe in your promise.”

She never kept her promises to him.

Tang Xi took a deep breath and looked at Qiao Liang. Her big eyes were gradually filled with tears. Seeing this, Qiao Liang narrowed his eyes. “Don’t cry!”

This girl started acting again! He could imagine how she made a good actress when she entered the entertainment industry! Every time he was angry at her, she would fool him with her tears!

He went to see Lu Li this morning and asked him to find a good entertainment company for her and check whether there was some good movies that she could star in, but she was now actually using her acting skills to fool him!

Tang Xi pursed her lips and held back the tears that were going to flow out of her eyes. She looked at Qiao Liang unhappily. “It’s your fault. Why didn’t you stay with me? If you were around, you could ask Director Ning to come to our room. Then nothing would have happened… If you were around, you would be able to catch those women when I found them trying to get into Director Ning’s room! How can you blame me right now? Was I wrong to stop those women? I just tried to stop bad people doing bad things! And was I wrong to fall over accidentally?”

Qiao Liang was speechless when he heard her excuses… So he was to blame in the end?

Fine, he was not good at arguing.

Seeing the speechless Qiao Liang, Tang Xi pursed her lips and held back her laughter. She then continued, “Besides, this concerns Director Ning’s innocence, as well as my first fashion show! If Director Ning’s reputation is ruined, The Queen will be affected too. Sister Wanyi and I starred in the promotion clip that was directed by Director Ning. If he has a scandal, the biggest victims will be The Queen and Qingcheng Entertainment that Sister Wanyi works for. I didn’t do anything wrong. I just tried to protect my reputation and my company that I value even more than my life!”

“So you think you didn’t do anything wrong?” Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi with a frown. He didn’t expect Tang Xi was so good at chicanery. Should he praise her for quibbling so logically?

Tang Xi shrugged and pouted. “I was wrong. I shouldn’t be so impulsive, although I still think I must do those things. Since I’ve apologized to you, you should accept my apology and… forgive me.”

Qiao Liang, “…”

On the other side of things, Ning Yan was answering a call. He frowned and asked coldly, “Are you sure?”

“Yes, I’ve found out who did this. I’ll send the evidence to you and you can check it. If you have any problems, you can just call me. I’m idle being home alone.” The person’s voice did sound idle.

Ning Yan grunted in response and said, “Okay, since you’ve found out who he is, now it’s time for me to pay him back.”

Hearing his words, Xiao Sa raised his eyebrows. “Pay him back? How? I won’t do dirty jobs for you, okay?”

Ning Yan laughed. “Xiao Sa, of course I won’t get your hands dirty. I’ll have my men do it.”

“Are you going to kill that person?” Xiao Sa sounded surprised.

Ning Yan was speechless at his guess. It had been quite a while before he said, “No, I won’t let him off so easily! He’ll attend the Venice Film Festival with his new movie. I’ll let him see how his movie is destroyed before the film festival is held! Not only he, but also his movie will be ruined!”

Ning Yan sneered. “He can’t blame me. He tried to set me up. It will be rude of me not to pay him back.”

The others heard his words. He Wanyi looked at Ning Yan who glanced at her and said, “Okay, now this problem has almost been solved. We’ve released the statement and evidence online, and the hashtag of this rumor has been removed from the most searched hashtag list. Now you can go back to your rooms. I’m alright.”

Qiao Liang was dressing Tang Xi’s wound and the latter was casually browsing the posts in the Microblog only to find the hashtag “Ning Yan clarifies the rumor” appeared in the most search hashtag list. She clicked on it and read the comments. To her relief, most of the comments supported Ning Yan.

@A Merry Heart: Although Director Ning is grumpy, he is not that kind of person! I support Director Ning to safeguard his legal rights! I support Miss He! And I support the boss of that garment company!

@I used to Dream: God, there is so much news about the entertainment circle recently! The pure-looking star Xu Fang’s true colors were just exposed, and now Director Ning was set up by someone. I have a feeling someone big is gonna happen! PS: Fortunately, the rumors about Director Ning are not true. Otherwise, my heart will be broken.

@ Doraemon: I have been trusting Director Ning from the very beginning. There is only the door of the room and the backs of two women in the photos, which can prove nothing! They are being stupid trying to set Director Ning up with those photos.

@You Said I Was Your Darling: Oh my God, look at what I’ve seen! Director Ning shot a promotion clip for a brand?! I’m going to watch the video in the Microblog account of that company!

@Dot Dot: I can’t agree more!

Seeing this, Tang Xi hurriedly logged into the account of The Queen. Sure enough, there were already thousands of comments, and the number of followers had increased from hundreds to tens of thousands… and was still increasing…

Tang Xi began to read the comments that were mostly positive!

@Starry flower: God, so beautiful! My goddess Wanyi is so beautiful! And the costumes are also beautiful!

@You Said I Was Your Darling: I just watched the video. Both of the two female leads are gorgeous, and one of them seems to be the endorser of my favorite perfume!
