CHAPTER 40: CHAPTER 40 I’M SERIOUS

However, even though he left today, he will come back tomorrow. What should I do?

Thinking of this, she picked up her phone and dialed Qin Huaixin.

Since Qin Huaixin got drunk, they hadn’t spoken over the phone, so Zhuang Shuqing first asked about her situation.

"Qin Huaixin, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I’m pretty good." A cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone.

She was surprised, "Did your dad not do anything after you got drunk?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, my dad was on a business trip that day, and he only came back on the third day."

"...You’re really lucky."

"That’s right. By the way, how’s your new job?"

When it came to her new job, Zhuang Shuqing thought about the incident tonight at Seaview Bay and what happened just now at home, then couldn’t help but feel upset.

She said gloomily, "Not too bad. By the way, my work is a bit far, and being new, I don’t want to be late, can I stay with you for a few days?"

"Really? Come on, hurry into my arms."

Hearing Qin Huaixin’s lighthearted words, Zhuang Shuqing’s mouth twitched, "I’m serious."

"I’m serious too, tomorrow after work I’ll have the driver pick you up..."

"Can you come over tomorrow morning? Tomorrow is the weekend."

"Oh right, okay, just stay at home and wait for me~"

...

After hanging up, Zhuang Shuqing finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking she could hide for as long as possible.

Thinking she could get rid of that man tomorrow, Zhuang Shuqing felt incredibly happy.

Taking advantage of not feeling sleepy, she pulled out a suitcase she had packed a few days earlier, planning to pack a few more clothes.

The phone on the bed vibrated, Zhuang Shuqing reached for it and saw an unfamiliar number, hesitating for a moment before answering.

"Hello, who is this?"

"Zhuang Shuqing? This is Secretary Ding, are you home yet?"

As soon as Zhuang Shuqing heard it was Secretary Ding, she straightened up immediately, "Secretary Ding, I am home. Tonight... the main characters of tonight’s engagement party were Lu family’s young master and Tan Biyang, however, something went wrong, and they did not get engaged successfully."

After thinking, Zhuang Shuqing roughly explained the situation without going into details.

"Oh? It seems like what was said online, Shuqing, tonight’s engagement party also had journalist from other media outlets who have already exposed the event, and they are saying they will release even bigger news tomorrow."

Zhuang Shuqing was startled, bigger news?

Could it be...

"Secretary Ding, I... I’ll try my best to stop them from releasing it."

"No, if we can release a scoop before them, they won’t pose a threat to us." At the end, she added, "That’s Mr. Gu’s intention."

"But..."

"I’ll leave it to you." After saying that, Secretary Ding hung up the phone.

Zhuang Shuqing stared at the phone, dazed for a full minute before she realized, and she scrolled through the news, finding only reports about Tan Biyang using a fake video to force marriage with Young Master Lu.

If she wasn’t wrong, the news those people wanted to report tomorrow must be about the woman in the video.

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help shivering.

It’s over!

Now she was really stuck between a rock and a hard place, especially the task Secretary Ding just asked her to do~

Right, when entering the venue tonight, they had been inspected outside; micro cameras and phones were definitely not allowed in.

This meant she didn’t have to worry about someone leaking her photos.

She quickly packed her things and started writing the press release on her computer...

In the early hours, Zhuang Shuqing looked at the article she published contentedly, then shut down the computer and went to sleep...

A night of nightmares
