CHAPTER 121: CHAPTER 121: EVEN HER MISCHIEF IS A PLEASURE TO WATCH

Qin Zhennan intended to turn the tide, loudly reprimanding, "Stop messing around, hurry back to your rooms."

Qin Yishu and Qin Xueyao realized the situation had spiraled out of control and immediately turned to leave following Qin Zhennan’s glance.

Qin Xueyao was rushing too much and, as she brushed past Gu Jiayin, didn’t notice Gu Jiayin subtly extending her right foot, subtly altering its direction.

"Ah!"

With a scream, Qin Xueyao completely lost control and fell toward Dou Chuanyan standing to the side.

Dou Chuanyan intended to dodge, but as Qin Xueyao was pregnant and Qin Zhennan was still a client of Eagle Emperor, he had no choice but to reach out to support her.

But Qin Xueyao fell too suddenly, and there were many precautions in handling a pregnant woman. Most importantly, Gu Jiayin’s method of mischief was too peculiar, causing the battle-hardened Dou Chuanyan to falter, and he was directly knocked down by Qin Xueyao.

His hands were both supporting her waist to prevent injuring the fetus in her belly, so his strength was somewhat unbalanced. When Qin Xueyao fell, her red lips landed directly on his.

At the critical moment, a thin transparent plastic card was placed between their lips and teeth.

Gu Jiayin held the card between two slender fingers, smiling brilliantly, "Xueyao, dear sister, you are the Pei Family’s intended future daughter-in-law, and President Dou’s lips mustn’t be touched. I’m blocking it for you."

At that moment, Qin Zhennan and Wei Yang simultaneously reacted, promptly stepping forward to help up Qin Xueyao and Dou Chuanyan.

Gu Jiayin elegantly tidied her disheveled long hair and inadvertently noticed Wei Yang staring at her intensely, or rather, at the plastic card in her hand.

She coquettishly raised her eyebrows, smiling brilliantly, "Mr. Wei, are you thinking of keeping this card as a memento?"

Wei Yang, "..."

What’s there to commemorate?

This woman’s words are really...

He only didn’t want Dou Chuanyan’s lip marks to get away. If the Gu Jiayin in front of him weren’t Sheng Qianchi’s woman, he wouldn’t be so respectful and would have already snatched that card away.

Just as he was racking his brain on how to retrieve the card, Gu Jiayin walked over with a smile, lightly raised her jade hand, and slipped the card into the pocket of his suit jacket, her teasing tone ringing in his ear,

"President Dou and a hot celebrity sharing a kiss through a card, this indeed holds souvenir value. Mr. Wei, take good care of it, it might fetch a sky-high price at an auction someday."

This remark made Wei Yang and Dou Chuanyan embarrassed.

However, the card was finally retrieved, allowing them to relax.

Because Gu Jiayin is Sheng Qianchi’s woman, this halo naturally carries pressure. Moreover, such an indescribably beautiful woman, now standing so close to him, the inherently cold and never-restrained Wei Yang felt his whole body tense up.

He dared not look directly at Gu Jiayin, his eyes darting away.

But Gu Jiayin stared at him unabashedly, not missing a single expression, as if she had developed some kind of obsession with him.

Behind her, Sheng Qianchi’s face had already turned dark enough to drip water, yet she was completely oblivious.

Her hand still lingered on Wei Yang’s chest, further unsettling him, as Sheng Qianchi’s powerful and chilly presence nearly suffocated him.

Finally, he stepped back with difficulty, lowered his head, and smiled respectfully, "Miss Gu."

Gu Jiayin seemed to realize her rudeness, smiled apologetically, and retreated back to Sheng Qianchi’s side.

Nobody knows she discovered a tremendous secret.

...

The incident between Qin Xueyao and Dou Chuanyan was just a minor episode; everyone’s main concern was the woman who had schemed against Qin Yiheng inside the room.

Although in this circle of wealth, women drugging men to climb into bed was not uncommon, for Qin Yiheng to lose control and demand Qin Zhennan and Sheng Qianchi’s intervention, that woman could not be ordinary.

This is the biggest curiosity for everyone present.

But now, Qin Zhennan wished nothing more than to disperse the crowd immediately and erase what happened tonight, so after Qin Xueyao regained her footing, he commanded once more, "Return to your rooms."

Then, glancing around the crowd, he smiled and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, a scheming woman drugging a man for power is nothing new. Please disperse and rest."

Qin Zhennan clearly did not wish to open the door, and forcing their stay would be inappropriate, so everyone reluctantly turned to head back, looking a bit disgruntled.

Gu Jiayin wouldn’t miss this opportunity to humiliate the Qin Family. She immediately smiled and said, "Dad wants to keep things quiet, which is understandable, but I’m really curious to know which audacious woman threatened our elder brother. Given she dared to demand half the shares, let’s expose her today, let all of Licheng City’s high society see her true face, and guard other gentlemen in the future."

This reasoning gave everyone an excuse to remain, and they echoed, "Yes, Mr. Qin, open the door and let us see who the woman is, so she can be expelled from high society."

Sheng Qianchi silently stood with one hand in his trouser pocket, a faint smile playing on his lips as he observed Gu Jiayin, who orchestrated the entire scheme, his heart quietly delighting in her audacity like a row of sweet beans popping out.

This woman even commits mischief so pleasingly.

Elegantly, he reached out and clasped Gu Jiayin’s waist, pulling her into his embrace with a warm, playful smile, "Mr. Qin, didn’t Miss Qin specifically run to the sixth floor to invite me down to see who the woman is? Now that I’m personally here, you’re not even opening the door?"

Qin Zhennan gritted his teeth, casting a fierce glare at Qin Xueyao, wishing he could string her up for a severe lashing.

Qin Xueyao was already pale and trembling in fear, exhausted not just from being six months pregnant to satisfy Thompson’s desires, but due to her previous exuberance driven by a certainty of thoroughly crushing Gu Jiayin, leaving her mentally ecstatic.

Now, with blow after blow hitting her, she was weary as if crushed by a cold frost.

Qin Yishu observed Sheng Qianchi adorably holding Gu Jiayin, contemplated the unexpected situations that might unfold inside the room, and faced Qin Zhennan, brimming with murderous rage. She felt as if she were in Purgatory.

Sheng Qianchi stood like a mountain here, putting Qin Zhennan in a difficult position, rendering him momentarily frozen, unsure of what to do.

The space settled into silence.

After about half a minute, a woman’s earth-shattering scream erupted from inside the room, filled with terror and a hoarse voice from screaming too much.

"Ah!"

After the frightened scream, pitiful cries of pain, likely from a man hitting her, could be heard.

As a series of chaotic noises followed, the door suddenly swung open from the inside.

The scene before their eyes was shockingly appalling, everyone gasped in surprise, their mouths agape.
