Before Liang Xuer could run back to the banquet hall, a group of people walked over.

She froze on the spot, unable to hide the panic on her face.

This banquet had invited several well-known and authoritative media companies.

In an auction of scripts, it was naturally necessary for the media to create hype and hype for the fans outside and future consumption.

There wouldn’t be a lack of entertainment media outlets for such topics.

She tidied her skirt and messy hair in a panic.

She turned her body to the side, wanting to make way for them as if nothing had happened.

“Is what you said true? Are you sure?”

Walking in front was a young man in a waiter’s uniform. Behind him was a group of reporters.

She interrogated the waiter excitedly.

The waiter looked troubled, but he still said,

“That’s right. I saw the woman beside Young Master Qin supporting him as he left…”

“The gentleman who came with that lady is looking for her now…”

“I saw that Young Master Qin is in a bad state tonight. Please don’t let anything happen…”

As they got closer and closer, Liang Xuer’s panicked face paled when she heard the waiter’s words. She deliberately lowered her head, wanting to reduce her presence to avoid this group of people.

However, the waiter in front saw her first. His expression changed and he frowned.

Did that person not succeed?

Or was he too late?

“Miss… are you… alright?”

Liang Xuer knew that she had been recognized. She shook her head with a pale face and avoided eye contact.

“I’m… I’m fine… What’s wrong?”

A trace of annoyance flashed across the attendant’s face. “It’s nothing. The gentleman who came with you has been looking for you. I happened to see you leaving with Young Master Qin. I was afraid that something would happen, so I came over to take a look.”

Liang Xuer was so fl.u.s.tered that she couldn’t focus her mind. When she heard this answer, which obviously had many loopholes, she didn’t react. Instead, she thanked him and reached out to curl her hair.

She deliberately suppressed her voice and said softly, “I’m fine.”

“Oh, that’s good.”

Just as she finished speaking, she saw Li Tingshen striding in.

Seeing Liang Xuer’s back, their gazes met for a second.

In that second, Li Tingshen’s face darkened.

He had failed.

The reporters who smelled something fishy were even more disappointed.

“Xu’er.”

An indifferent and deep voice sounded behind her. Liang Xuer turned around abruptly and her eyes turned red when she saw Li Tingshen.

“Brother Tingshen.”

She shouted and stumbled into Li Tingshen’s arms.

When the reporters who were about to leave saw this scene, they stopped in their tracks.

Li Tingshen narrowed his eyes.

He pushed Liang Xuer away and took a step back silently.

He lowered his gaze to look at her. “What’s wrong? Who bullied you?”

If she wasn’t caught red-handed, she could do it now.

Liang Xuer was stunned at first before she s.h.i.+fted her gaze elsewhere.

“I’m… I’m fine.”

A cold glint flashed across Li Tingshen’s eyes.

It was fleeting.

“Since you’re fine, go back to the banquet hall. You should be looking forward to the upcoming script auction.”

However, Liang Xuer suddenly shook her head. “No need. The script auction has nothing to do with me. Brother Tingshen, I’m not feeling well. Let’s go back.”

Li Tingshen stared at her quietly for a few seconds before nodding.

“Let’s go back then.”

Liang Xuer heaved a sigh of relief and quickly held Li Tingshen’s arm.

When she pa.s.sed by the hotel lobby, Liang Xuer glanced at the corridor beside her. She bit her lips and tightened her grip on Li Tingshen’s arm.

Li Tingshen turned to look at her. “What’s wrong?”

Liang Xuer forced a faint smile and said, “I’m fine.”

Her plan was ruined because of her, but it was his fault for using her. Li Tingshen had exhausted his patience to spend the night with her.

Liang Xuer lowered her eyes, her heart pounding violently because of her decision.

Shame, self-blame, and fear.

If the Ye family found out that she had deliberately abandoned Ye Qingqiu and didn’t report it, they would probably want to kill her.

But at that moment, the heart that had completely destroyed Ye Qingqiu had overcome this fear.

It was impossible for the Ye family to kill her, but Ye Qingqiu’s life would be ruined. The reputation of the princess of Ping Cheng City would be tarnished. More importantly, Li Tingshen would never want her again. Even if he was willing, with Ye Qingqiu’s personality, she would never be with him again.

Although she didn’t care about Miss Ye’s reputation and status in Ping Cheng City, it wasn’t a bad thing to have her.

All these years, she had been suppressed by Ye Qingqiu. She had had enough.

Moreover, she had only chosen not to save her.

They had always disliked each other. She didn’t have the responsibility to save her.

As long as Ye Qingqiu was completely destroyed…

She was thinking about the future when a hurried figure barged in and almost b.u.mped into her.

“Sorry.”

The other party apologized hurriedly and was about to walk in when someone grabbed his arm.

“Ye Ze.”

The man snapped back to reality and frowned at Li Tingshen.

Li Tingshen continued, “Where’s Ye Qingqiu?”

Ye Ze retracted his arm coldly.

“I’m looking for her.”

With that, he went straight to the front desk.

Liang Xuer panicked even more and hurriedly said, “Brother Tingshen, let’s go.”

Li Tingshen didn’t move, but he stared at Liang Xuer’s face for a long time.

“Brother Tingshen…”

Narrowing his eyes, Li Tingshen pushed her hand away and walked into the hall.

Liang Xuer’s body swayed.

She stood rooted to the ground, at a loss.

Ye Ze asked the receptionist, “Have you noticed the women resting in the rest area?”

The receptionist’s expression was unnatural as she looked at Liang Xuer.

Then, she said hesitantly, “Yes, I did. I saw her walking over…”

She pointed to the corridor where the argument had taken place and said carefully, “I haven’t seen her come out since…”

Upon hearing this, Ye Ze’s expression changed and he hurriedly turned around to stride towards the corridor.

After taking a few steps, she found a high heel at the door of a room.

The moment Li Tingshen saw the pair of high heels, his usually expressionless face changed drastically and his eyes narrowed.

When Ye Ze bent down to get his shoes, he walked to the door and kicked it open without hesitation.

The smell of alcohol filled the room.

The room was a mess.

The wine rack, the small fridge, the television cabinet, and the sofa were all on the same spot.

The bedding on the bed was a mess. There were a few bright red stains on the white bedspread.

It was empty.

Li Tingshen’s gaze landed on the bathroom door.

Qin Hao’s head was dripping with blood. He was leaning against the bathroom door and looking at him unhappily.

“Who let you in? Get out, don’t ruin my plans!”

Li Tingshen strode over and lifted him up with one hand.

“What do you mean by good?”

“Of course it’s the woman inside! She’s quite fierce. d.a.m.n it, I must make her submit to me…”

The crude word was like a match that had lit a fuse, instantly shattering his rationality.

He pushed him against the bathroom door.

A punch landed…

Qin Hao’s body collapsed.

The tempered gla.s.s on the hard surface of the fog shattered and was crushed by him.

Qin Miao let out a shrill howl.

The group of people who had rushed over after hearing the news looked at this scene in surprise. The corridor and room fell silent.

Ye Qingqiu stood in the corner of the bathroom with her arms wrapped around her body. Her dress was wrinkled and there were a few bloodstains and red wine stains on it. Her beautiful and smooth hair had long been messed up, covering most of her pale face.

There was fear on her face as she stared at him blankly.

Li Tingshen stood rooted to the ground. Seeing the unfamiliarity and fear in her eyes, he walked towards her slowly.

He saw the fear and evasion in her eyes.

Ye Qingqiu had indeed dodged. When he approached, she retreated and only stopped when her body was pressed tightly against the wall.

She had never seen this side of Li Tingshen.

Gentle, indifferent, cold, calm, rational…

But she had never seen him like this.

He was indifferent and refined, and his entire body was filled with extreme ferocity, ferocity, and brutality…

“Don’t be afraid.” Her hoa.r.s.e voice shook her chest and eardrums.

Ye Qingqiu blinked and watched as he raised his hand to push her hair away. His palm pressed against her face and ears.

“Were you bullied, huh?”

Ye Qingqiu paused and glanced at the people taking photos outside.

“I should be bullied now, right?”

Li Tingshen paused and his grip on her palm tightened.

Ye Qingqiu pushed his hand away. “Do you think I look like I haven’t been bullied?”

She looked down at Qin Jianjia, who was lying on the ground and wailing silently. She said word by word, “He wants to rape me.”

The words were clear and crisp.

Li Tingshen looked at her in shock.

The surroundings were silent for a while before it became noisy again. The cameras and phones in their hands started recording crazily.

Li Tingshen’s back was facing the door. After a long while, he said slowly,

“Ye Ze, take her away first.”

Ye Ze snapped out of his shock and hurried to Ye Qingqiu.

There were gla.s.s shards scattered all over the floor. Ye Ze bent down without hesitation and carried the barefooted Ye Qingqiu.

Li Tingshen narrowed his eyes and glanced at Ye Ze before turning to make room for them.

Everyone made way for them.

Ye Ze carried Ye Qingqiu to the door and saw Liang Xuer standing in the corridor, not daring to go forward.

“Put me down.”

Ye Ze didn’t understand, but Ye Qingqiu’s voice was firm.

He put her down obediently. The corridor was carpeted.

Liang Xuer stood against the wall with a pale face. When she saw Ye Qingqiu being put down, she was in a sorry state. However, she still maintained her arrogant and domineering att.i.tude.

Ye Qingqiu stood beside her and looked at her silently.

Liang Xuer looked at her as well, her gaze wandering a few times. “… Sorry.”

Ye Qingqiu raised her hands and two crisp slaps attracted the attention of a few people in the corridor.

Liang Xuer was slapped twice by Ye Qingqiu.

Her face was burning with pain, but this time, she didn’t have any reaction. She didn’t even look at Ye Qingqiu with disgust and anger.

“Since you dared to do it back then, you shouldn’t apologize now.” Ye Qingqiu said coldly, “You know that it’s impossible for me to forgive you. When I think of how I chose to save you back then, I really want to slap myself. You’re such a busybody and almost got yourself killed.”

Liang Xuer couldn’t stand up straight in front of Ye Qingqiu. She was in the wrong today.

There was no way to explain.

Ye Ze listened from the side and seemed to understand something.

Her gaze on Liang Xuer became sharper.

Another long scream came from the room behind her.

It was Qin Hao’s voice.

The people around them gasped.

The expression on Ye Qingqiu’s face suddenly froze. She blinked and pursed her red lips unnaturally.

However, Qin Jianjia’s cries pierced Ye Qingqiu’s eardrums. Her body trembled slightly and she clenched her fists.

Ye Ze sensed her emotions and whispered.

“Miss, let’s leave this place first.”

Someone in the crowd said, “She’s about to be beaten to death.”

These words made Ye Qingqiu’s pale and stiff face change. Security guards ran over one after another.

“Enough, Li Tingshen,” she growled.

The sound of flesh colliding behind her seemed to have been stopped.

Li Tingshen walked out of the room step by step, his face frighteningly cold. The ferocity in his eyes made everyone retreat.

As he walked, he adjusted the creases on his suit, adjusted his tie, b.u.t.toned it, and smoothed the creases on his sleeves. Then, he walked to Ye Qingqiu’s side and restrained his violence.

Even so, he still saw Ye Qingqiu’s eyelashes tremble slightly and her body subconsciously moved to the side.

His eyes darkened.

He s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Liang Xuer.

“So you knew that she was in Qin Hao’s room?”

Liang Xuer’s body suddenly swayed. Even her face, which had turned red from Ye Qingqiu’s slap, had turned pale.

“I… don’t know.”

She was just staking everything.

If Ye Qingqiu was ruined, she felt that it was worth it to endure Li Tingshen’s anger.

But now, she didn’t know what to do…

Just thinking about his appearance just now made her shudder.

Ye Qingqiu looked at Liang Xuer and suddenly sneered. She turned to look at Ye Ze.

“Home.”

Ye Ze bent down and wanted to carry her, but a hand blocked his way.

Li Tingshen’s voice sounded. It was still cold, but it was tense and low.

“I’ll do it.”
