Shen Qingyueâs smile disappeared completely. âLet me tell you, what they envy about me is obviously my youth and beauty. If youâre jealous, you can give it a try too, but it might be a bit difficult for you, after allâ¦â She sized up Zhang
Qianqian in a glance and said nothing, yet it was as if she had said everything.
Zhang Qianqianâs expression changed too. âShen Qingyue, whatâs there for you to be so proud of? Just because you have some dirty money? Didnât you desperately marry Qin Zhen with five billion? He still didnât find you attractive, did he? Cheating and keeping mistresses, practically wanting to bring them home. If you didnât have that moneyâ¦â
âWho do you say cheated?â Tang Fangmo stepped out from the crowd. Known for his ever-present smile, there was not a hint of it on his face now.
Meeting Tang Fangmoâs gaze, Zhang Qianqian realized she misspoke. Regardless of the situation, this was Tang Fangmoâs welcoming banquet. Even if she was ridiculing Shen Qingyue, she should have done it privately. Now being seen by Brother MO in such an aggressive state⦠it was all Shen Qingyueâs fault! She forced herself to explain with a stiff face, âI didnât say anything wrong. Shen Qingyueâs ex-husband cheated with Wei Jiuâer, it was widely discussed online, who doesnât know?â
Tang Fangmo looked at Shen Qingyue. âHow come you didnât tell me about
Shen Qingyue shrugged. âI thought you already knew⦠Iâve paid with a lifetime, with my life, to gain clarity in this life. Hearing Zhang Qianqian bring up the past again doesnât stir any waves in my heart.â
âQin Zhen really cheated within the marriage? He dared to betray you?â Tang Fangmoâs eyes changed too. He thought it might be that Qin Zhen lacked emotional satisfaction, or that Shen Qingyue was tired and wanted to let go.
But it didnât meanâ¦
Knowing Tang Fangmoâs temperament, Shen Qingyue worried he might cause trouble. She explained, âThat matter is in the past, I donât care anymore. You shouldnât bother either.â
Hearing Shen Qingyueâs lack of a clear denial, it meant Qin Zhen indeed cheated within the marriage. Tang Fangmo gritted his teeth. âIf I knew that damn b*stard Qin Zhen dared to cheat, the first thing I would have done when I returned to the country yesterday was to go find him at the Qin family house!â Thinking about it, Tang Fangmoâs eyes darkened.
âYou used to admire him a lot, didnât you? You thought he had potential?
Infinite possibilities in the future?â Shen Qingyue suddenly felt like laughing.
Tang Fangmo was on the verge of rolling his eyes. âIsnât that because you like him? Otherwise, with his unbearable personality and explosive temper, who would want to bother with him?â
Shen Qingyue listened to Tang Fangmoâs decisive response and felt a warmth in her heart.
On the other side, Zhang Qianqian, seeing Tang Fangmo defend Shen Qingyue like this, felt a pang of sourness. âBrother MO, do you really like her?â
Tang Fangmo was feeling annoyed, and then he heard a voice by his ear that sounded a bit sticky. He frowned and asked, âWho are you?â
Zhang Qianqian stiffened. âI⦠Iâm your university classmate, Zhang Qianqian. We even collaborated on a stage play when we graduated. I played the female lead, and you were the male leadâ¦â She had liked him for so many years, how could he not remember her?
Tang Fangmo thought for a moment but could not recall. How many people does he meet every year? How could he remember people from his university days? Except for those who were more important in his work, he found it hard to remember others.
Shen Qingyue raised an eyebrow, finally understanding. âBrother MO, she said sheâs your fiancée. You donât recognize her?â
âFiancée? Are you kidding me?â Tang Fangmo finally looked at Zhang Qianqian, his expression serious. âYoung Lady, Iâve been single since birth. Donât make things up.â
Zhang Qianqianâs face turned pale. She had just claimed to be Tang Fangmoâs fiancée, and of course, it was a fabrication, just to make Shen Qingyue back off and save Brother Mo from trouble. She never thought Shen Oingyue would directly tell Brother Mo. Her eyes shimmered, and she said with a hint of pity, âBrother Mo, she said she wanted to financially support you. I didnât want you to carry such a reputation, so I just wanted her to give up. Thatâs why..
Who was Tang Fangmo? A figure in the entertainment industry, someone who had seen all sorts of scheming women. Zhang Qianqianâs level was not even worth his attention. He looked at her mockingly. âDo I need you to intervene?
Shen Qingyue is my cousin. You think Iâd believe she wants to financially support me? Are you serious?â
âWhat?â Zhang Qianqian was dumbfounded. She never thought it would turn out this way. But if Shen Qingyue was his cousin, then her words just now were self-defeating!
Feeling the surrounding gazes, Zhang Qianqian had never felt so embarrassed in her life. Unable to bear it any longer, she turned and ran right into Oin Zhen, who was entering the room..
