Shen Qingyue was not surprised by Tang Fangmoâs reaction. She smiled self-deprecatingly. The person she used to be seemed as if she were under a spell, only able to see Qin Zhen and no one else. âYou can search online. Itâs been over two months since I divorced him.â
Seeing that Shen Qingyue was not joking, Tang Fangmo finally felt uncertain, his expression awkward. âSo, now that youâre divorced from him, you probably donât want to see him, right?â
Shen Qingyue replied, âWhat do you think? I canât stand the sight of him.â
Tang Fangmo looked at her frowning, feeling somewhat numb. He had already sent out invitations, even addressing him as âBrother-in-lawâ last night! Damn it, he hadnât been reading the news, but what had happened with that jerk? Shouldnât he be informed?
One moment, he was calling him âBrother-in-lawâ , but the next moment, he referred to him as a jerk. Tang Fangmoâs double standards were evident. His sister liked Qin Zhen so much; it definitely wasnât his sister who initiated the divorce. That jerk of a guy just did not know how to appreciate his sister! Should he tell Shen Qingyue about this matter? After considering it, he decided against it. Could he even articulate it without getting beaten up? Just as someone called him, he seized the opportunity to leave and avoid a potential disaster.
Shen Qingyue turned around to find Chi Ming. She saw that he had just finished his call.
âI have a friend upstairs. I need to go say hello.â Chi Ming was coincidentally going to find her too.
Shen Qingyue naturally had no objections. âGo ahead.â
Chi Ming nodded slightly. âIf anything comes up, give me a call, and Iâll come right away.â
Shen Qingyue found a place, planning to eat something to fill her stomach, but before she could take a bite, she heard an unfriendly female voice behind her. âArenât you Shen Qingyue, the one who fabricated rumors with Brother Mo?â
Shen Qingyue turned around.
Facing each other, both were momentarily stunned. Coincidentally, they were both wearing dresses from the Shen Corporationâs new collection. Accidental fashion collisions werenât alarming, but who looked worse was the awkward part. Clearly, Zhang Qianqian was the one feeling embarrassed.
Zhang Qianqian and Tang Fangmo both graduated from the same film school and were even in the same year. Now, she was a popular rising star. She had recently been hailed by the media as a rare beauty of the millennium. During a variety show recording, she appeared without makeup, easily overshadowing other female celebrities and transforming into a stunning beauty.
However, keen observers knew she had long prepared the makeup-free photos, stepping on her fellow actresses to rise. Yet, the entertainment industry was a world of fame and fortune, and it depended on who had the better tactics.
Zhang Qianqian could only fool some diehard fans; her looks and acting skills were mediocre. Especially compared to Shen Qingyue, who was nurtured with elegance from a young age and possessed natural beauty, there was a noticeable gap.
Someone nearby whispered, âI thought Shen Qingyue looked beautiful in photos, but seeing her in person, sheâs even more stunning. Zhang Qianqian is completely overshadowed in her presenceâ¦â
Hearing this, Zhang Qianqian shot a fierce glare at that person.
Zhang Qianqian had liked Tang Fangmo for several years. When she saw the rumors about Tang Fangmo and Shen Qingyue yesterday, she became anxious. It was known that over the years, Tang Fangmo had been careful about such matters and never engaged in such publicity stunts. Although Tang Fangmoâs studio quickly clarified the situation, she still remained wary of Shen Qingyue.
It could be said that the dynamics between women were different. Shen Qingyue posed a threat; Zhang Qianqian couldnât let Shen Qingyue become a formidable rival. When a friend informed her that Shen Qingyue was also present, she rushed over. She had initially intended to assert her dominance over Shen Qingyue but was surprised to find herself feeling suppressed upon arrival.
Seeing the hostility in Zhang Qianqianâs approach, Shen Qingyue concealed her smile. âAnd you are?â
âIâm Brother Moâs fiancée, Zhang Qianqian!â
Shen Qingyue was confused. How come she did not know she was going to have a sister-in-law? This did not happen in her past life!
âWhat? Canât understand? Iâm Brother Moâs fiancée.â Zhang Qianqian said arrogantly, âA young girl like you looks like a mutt. Donât embarrass yourself and stay away from Brother Mo. Heâs not someone a woman like you can have. Even with Shen Corporationâs wealth, you still dream of being with Brother
MO? Thatâs wishful thinking.â
Shen Qingyue did not want to cause a scene at Tang Fangmoâs celebration, and she definitely did not want to exchange words with this woman. âYouâve misunderstoodâ¦â
âMisunderstood?â Zhang Qianqian seized onto a phrase, refusing to let go. âIf I misunderstood, then why were you eagerly waiting at the airport yesterday? You even shamelessly had dinner with Brother MO? Your pursuit of men is known by all. The whole internet is buzzing about it. You want every man, and with your character, who knows what theyâre after? Who knows if you carry some diseaseâ¦.â
