Li Qianming looked elsewhere and frowned impatiently.
Seeing Li Qianming remain silent, Wu Shu continued, “Qianming, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but we’re about to get engaged and you’re always hanging out with this woman with a bad reputation. It’ll really affect your image.
Think about it. She’s just an actress, and she’s a murder suspect. What good will it do if you’re with her? Wouldn’t she just smear your own name?”
Chi Yaoxi had just recovered a little from the criticisms of so many onlookers and media reporters. Now that she heard this woman insulting her reputation in front of Li Qianming, she felt extremely indignant.
Her face darkened immediately. She held her breath and walked to the man without explaining anything. “We’re already at the door. Either I go in or I leave. I don’t want to hear this woman’s nonsense!”
Li Qianming was not fond of Wu Shu to begin with. Seeing her blabbering on and on, adding fuel to the fire in front of them, slandering Chi Yaoxi, he felt even more disgusted with this woman.
He had just experienced a wave of criticism from the crowd and the press. Now that he was at his doorstep, such a thing actually happened!
Li Qianming was even less in the mood to listen to Wu Shu’s nonsense after noticing that Chi Yaoxi’s face was dark and her mood was extremely bad, and that she was so depressed that she did not speak.
“Go away!” Li Qianming’s tone was low and slow, but it sounded like he couldn’t be argued with. His face became even colder, as if it had been frozen for ten thousand years. His eyes were filled with a cold chill as he glared at Wu Shu.
Li Qianming opened the door of the villa and watched as Chi Yaoxi and the little fellow followed him in. Then, he turned around and locked Wu Shu outside.
What was going on? Was he going to be so ruthless??Wu Shu stared at the tightly shut door, her embarrassment turning into anger. Her expression was ferocious and she gnashed her teeth in hatred.
Chi Yaoxi! You damn b*tch! You must have used some trick to make Li Qianming so loyal to you!
Hmph! You think you can take over the position of the mistress of the Li Family?! I will never let you succeed! Just you wait and see!
It was really a dark day. No, it had been a few days…
Chi Yaoxi had gone through so much pain, scolding, threats, and slander. She was physically and mentally exhausted as she sat on the sofa.
“Auntie Wu, go get a new set of clothes.”
Chi Yaoxi heard a man’s voice coming from inside. Shortly after, Auntie Wu brought a set of casual pajamas to Chi Yaoxi.
“Miss Chi, do you think this is appropriate?”
Chi Yaoxi thanked Auntie Wu and took the clothes. It was hard to tell that the man could be so meticulous. Chi Yaoxi’s lips curled into a smile.
After taking a hot shower, she felt much more relaxed and comfortable. Chi Yaoxi forced herself to wake up and told the little guy two bedtime stories. Then, she fell asleep on the little guy’s bed.
When she woke up the next morning, Chi Yaoxi stretched lazily and got off the bed to draw the curtains. It was already late in the morning.
It was very quiet everywhere. Chi Yaoxi only found out after asking Auntie Wu that the little guy had gone to kindergarten and Li Qianming had gone to work at the company.
As she ate her breakfast, Chi Yaoxi opened the internet on her phone.
She was so shocked that the cake in Chi Yaoxi’s hand fell to the ground when she saw the content related to her on the hot search.
The trending topic was updated, revealing that she had an illegitimate child! f𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.co𝓶
Chi Yaoxi’s eyes widened, brows furrowed, standing there in a daze.
It was still exposed. The bad news continued to be updated. During this period of time, she had become a famous person. Her notoriety spread far and wide. The hot topic about her had always been at the top of the trending list.
The comments below were even more ridiculous.
“I’ve said this earlier on. Ever since she debuted, she relied on men to climb up the ranks…”
“She did not know who the father of her illegitimate child was, but she was once intimate with different men…”
“The sugar daddy she was secretly dating seemed to have been found…”
“A murder suspect bails on connections…”
This was too much!?The media’s hot searches and online rumors were suppressing and affecting Chi Yaoxi, enough to suffocate her. Chi Yaoxi felt like she couldn’t breathe. She was angry, indignant, and on the brink of tears.?Are they trying to force me to death?!
She could no longer eat her breakfast. Chi Yaoxi knew that the world was no longer the same as before. If she continued to persist like this, sooner or later, she would be drowned by the merciless criticism online.
Chi Yaoxi called Sister Ming and told her directly that she had rejected all her work and wanted to give herself a long vacation.
Chi Yaoxi decisively turned off her phone when she saw the comments that were constantly adding fuel to the fire and the harassment calls from time to time.
Chi Yaoxi knew that this rumor would take a long time to calm down. The more she responded and explained, the more excited the onlookers became. She might as well cut off all contact with the outside world and block all phone calls. Then, she would stay at home and disappear for a period of time.
Chi Yaoxi wore a hat and a mask. She went to the supermarket to shop alone. She bought a lot of food, drinks, and utensils. She had to make ample preparations for staying at home.
Usually, when she bought things, her assistant would help her carry them or Sister Ming would be by her side. Now, Chi Yaoxi was carrying large and small bags by herself. She felt that it was quite heavy. After paying with much difficulty, she came to the entrance of the supermarket.
Chi Yaoxi was about to hail a cab and head straight home. When she walked out of the door, she was surprised to see a familiar figure. Xiao Ye was standing there waiting for her.
“Xiao Ye? Why are you here? How did you find this place? My phone is switched off!” Chi Yaoxi asked while looking at Xiao Ye in shock.
“This is called telepathy, understand?” Xiao Ye blinked at Chi Yaoxi while the corners of his mouth curled up, and he replied with a light smile. Seeing that Chi Yaoxi was still frozen in place, Xiao Ye directly reached out to take the bag. “What are you still standing there for? Let’s go, I’ll send you home.”
Chi Yaoxi easily followed Xiao Ye and walked towards the parking lot. She looked at Xiao Ye, who was a head taller than her and always appeared when she was in trouble. Chi Yaoxi took the initiative to hold Xiao Ye’s arm and said with a smile, “Are you a helper sent by God? It’s great to have you here.”
Xiao Ye turned around, curved his smiling crescent eyes, and leaned close to Chi Yaoxi’s ear, saying softly, “Is it really good? Then just live with me.”
Chi Yaoxi smiled and pinched Xiao Ye’s arm hard, jokingly saying, “You dare say this, aren’t you scared that your goddess will get jealous when she hears this?”
Xiao Ye shrugged, smiled helplessly and continued walking.
Chi Yaoxi packed all the bags, and the kitchen refrigerator was also full.
Xiao Ye sat on the sofa and shouted towards the kitchen, “Chi Yaoxi, you still owe me a meal. I won’t be leaving this afternoon. I’m waiting for a big meal.”
“Got it! But I don’t know how to cook a complicated meal. Let me take a look. I’ve bought some tomatoes. I’ll cook tomato scrambled eggs for you.” Chi Yaoxi put on an apron and stuck her head out of the kitchen and said to Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “What kind of feast is this? Change it.”
Chi Yaoxi was in a difficult position. She really didn’t know how to cook. She usually ate work meals, and tomato scrambled eggs were already a complicated dish for her.
