Looking at the reporters behind them, Xue Yi pulled Qiao Xi into a lounge. There was a group of bodyguards guarding the door. Not even a fly could get in.
â¦
Soon, a topic quickly spread online. The Qiao family had bought a trending topic. The topic was âQiao Rou was slandered. It turns out the mistress is someone elseâ. Qiao Rouâs fans started reposting it.
The media had also edited the video at the scene. It showed Gu Moling admitting that Qiao Xi seduced him and almost ruined his relationship with Qiao Rou.
There was also news about Zhao Lili. She accused Qiao Xi of snatching a man from her younger sister. She revealed some photos of Qiao Xi and Gu Moling together, confirming the fact that she previously tried to seduce her younger sisterâs man.
At this moment, Gu Zheng was sitting on the sofa and clicking open those photos.
There was a scene of Qiao Xi and Gu Moling holding hands as they got into the car. There was also a photo of Qiao Xi and Gu Moling standing opposite each other with smiles on their faces. In another photo, the two of them were on a date.
Gu Zheng narrowed his eyes. How could the woman he treasured tolerate their slander?
His long fingers tapped on the table, then he picked up his phone to call Gu Yan.
After Gu Yan picked up the call, his voice trembled slightly. âPresident⦠President Gu?â

In the lounge on the other side, Qiao Xi looked at the comments online with interest. Most of them were posted by Qiao Rouâs fans.
[The elder sister seduced her brother-in-law! Sheâs really shameless! She even wronged Rou Rou previously. This woman is too scheming!]
[Our Rou Rou is so pitiful! She has been bullied by that b*tch for so many years. If it werenât for Young Master Guâs firm character and persistence in being with Rou Rou, Rou Rou would be so sad.]
[I finally understand why Xu Mei sold Qiao Xi to President Qian. Qiao Xi has done so much to Rou Rou. As Rou Rouâs mother, she definitely couldnât sit idly by. This kind of woman deserves to die!]
Xue Yi snorted. âQiao Rouâs fans are really the same as her. Theyâre all brainless!â
Qiao Xi smiled. âWhatâs strange about that? Her fans almost killed me! They even said that killing me for Qiao Rou was an honor.â
At this moment, footsteps came from outside.
Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows. They were finally here.
â¦
Qiao Rou and Gu Moling were in the lounge. They picked up their phones and watched the news online.
Gu Moling looked helpless. âRou Rou, stop crying. You wonât look good if you cry. A reporter will come to interview you later.â
Qiao Rou wiped her tears. âI donât know how things ended up like this. Sister will definitely hate me. What should I do?! But if I tell the truth, the companies under your name will be affected and my endorsements will be canceled. After all, the companyâs interests are the most important.â
âThatâs why itâs best to let Qiao Xi shoulder this crime. This wasnât our intention at all. Itâs just that public opinion has already fallen to one side. If we step out and clarify things now, no one will believe us.â
Gu Moling pulled her into his arms. âThis isnât your fault. It was Zhao Lili who said it in front of everyone. Itâs better if you donât keep in contact with her in the future. Sheâs not a good person to malign Qiao Xi like this.â
Qiao Xi nodded, but her eyes were filled with viciousness.
Zhao Lili had only said a few words to Qiao Xi before Brother Moling stopped her from interacting with Zhao Lili. It seemed that he still cared about Qiao Xi.
How detestable!
However, so what if that was the case? Now that Qiao Xiâs reputation was ruined and everyone was cursing at her, she would probably have to hide her identity from now on.
Moreover, Qiao Rou was about to marry Brother Moling. She would be Mrs. Gu, while Qiao Xi would be a lowly mistress!
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
The assistant said, âSir, Chairman Xue, Madam Xue, and the second young master of the Gu family, Gu Yao, are here. The chancellor wants you to go over.â
Gu Moling stood up and straightened his clothes. âAlright, Iâll go out now!â
He had donated 80 million this time not only for Qiao Rou but also to enter high society.
If he could build a good relationship with Chairman Xue, it would be very helpful to his future career.
Gu Moling instructed softly, âRou Rou, you havenât met Chairman Xue and Madam Xue before. Donât spout nonsense later. The couple is famous in high society. I believe they wonât make things difficult for you.â
Qiao Rou wiped her tears and nodded obediently.
