At Jintian Club...
Tao Zi thought that the matter should be enough, and later on, it would be definitely impossible for Xiang Wan and Qin Jin to be together.
After all...
How was it possible that Qin Jin would love a defiled woman?
Had it not been for the last intermediary contest, when she saw Qin Jin and Xiang Wan together, she would not have used what she knew to do such a thing.
She couldnât let Qin Jin and Xiang Wan have any chance to be together.
Tao Zi looked at the man reading a book over there. She got up and walked over to him. âQin Jin, thereâs a new movie out today. How about we go and watch it?â
Qin Jinâs long fingers turned the pages.
âEveryone will go together. Itâs been a lot of training lately, and weâll just do it for relaxation.â Fearing that Qin Jin might refuse, Tao Zi added this before he opened his mouth.
Sure enough, Qin Jin paused for a moment and said, âOkay.â
Tao Zi was very happy. Although they wouldnât go alone, he at least agreed to go.
Someone called her from outside the training room, âTao Zi, come out here.â
Tao Zi responded in a very good mood, âComing.â
Tao Zi entered the meeting room. She saw the serious faces on the police, and her good mood immediately turned into ashes.
Tao Ziâs heart jumped wildly and she looked at Ding Lei. âBrother Ding, you wanted to see me...â
Ding Lei told her to come in and shut the door.
...
The news that Tao Zi was taken away quickly spread throughout the club, and finally, the whole circle knew it.
After all, Tao Zi was now a member of Team HS, and Team HS was a team that was the focus of concern.
Tao Zi was suddenly taken away by the police, so of course, it became a hot topic.
When Ming Shu heard about the news, she put two grapes into her mouth like she didnât know anything. Tao Zi had the nerve to do such things, so naturally, she could find them out.
How could this matter happen ahead of time if not for having been manipulated by someone in secret?
Tao Zi really wanted to shove Xiang Wan into the mud.
Ding Lei got Tao Zi out of the police station using some unknown method, and there was no more news on the Internet.
âThank you, Brother Ding...â Tao Zi stayed in the detention house for a few days and didnât look very well.
âTao Zi, you really didnât do it?â
âBrother Ding, I donât even know who that Xiang Wan is, why would I do that? I donât know who set me up at a time like this...â Tao Zi said as her eyes reddened.
âA time like thisâ referred to the current competition, naturally.
Ding Leiâs eyes turned gloomy as expected. âOkay, this matter has been settled. Iâll send you back first. Have a good rest, and donât delay the game.â
Ding Lei sent Tao Zi back to her residence.
As soon as Ding Lei left, Tao Zi put away the grievance on her face, leaving only unreconciled hatred in her eyes.
She had done it very secretively, but why would anyone know?
Who was helping Xiang Wan?
âLittle cutie.â
The voice was so familiar.
It was so familiar that Tao Zi consciously believed it was calling her.
She followed the sound and saw a girl leaning back in the corridor leisurely. The girl also curled her lips into a smile slowly as she saw her looking over.
âJi He! What are you doing here!?â How did she know that I live here?
âRelax, I just came to tell you that I was the one who reported you,â Ming Shu said.
I came specially to tell her because I fear my snacks couponâs wayward thinking.
Tao Zi was thinking about it and now had a sudden realization.
âYou set me up!â
âThat doesnât sound right. It was originally you who did it, so how could it be a setup?â
âI didnât,â Tao Zi denied it. No matter what, you couldnât give others a cause for talk. âWhy did you set me up!â
Forget it.
Iâll just take the blame.
Ming Shu then said in a cheerful tone, âWhy? No reason. Iâm just happy to do that.â
â...â
Ming Shu got up and went downstairs. After walking for a few steps, she seemed to have thought of something and turned back. âI almost forgot. Iâll just beat you up.â
â???â
[Guest, you can make her feel worse.] The Harmony System that hadnât offered bad ideas for a long time suddenly jumped out.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âLike?â
[Strip her clothes and throw her out naked.]
â...â
I shouldnât have expected anything from the Harmony System.
It doesnât have any bad ideas other than that.
I thought it was going to get better after all this timeâs silence. But I was thinking too highly of it.
Trash the Harmony System.
[Guest, donât think I donât know youâre calling me names.]
âTrash.â So what?
[...]
The Guest may need some porn to calm down.
...
Ding Lei learned from Tao Zi that it was all set up by the NS Club, so he became enraged immediately.
Ding Lei contacted his men and investigated all the detailed information about Ming Shuâs team and team members. He intended to take revenge, an eye for an eye.
But in addition to Ming Shu and Jiang Liu, the rest of the team were from other cities.
Ming Shu got Si Chen to pick her up to go to work, so Ding Lei had no chance to target her. So he was only left with Jiang Liu.
âWang Heyang actually played such a mean trick, so he canât blame me then.â Ding Lei gave a look toward Tao Zi. âDonât think too much and donât read the negative news. Leave them all to me.â
Tao Zi nodded her head. âOkay, Brother Ding, Iâll go back now.â
âOkay.â
Tao Zi came out of the office and met Qin Jin, who was heading over.
âQin Jin...â
Qin Jinâs eyes didnât even fall on her, ignoring her. He went into Ding Leiâs office.
Tao Zi bit her lower lip lightly, her eyes filled with complicated emotions.
Since she came back from the police station, Qin Jin had treated her more coldly. He used to respond to her when she greeted him, but now, he would just ignore her.
She thought he was in a bad mood at first, but then she found out that he would respond to others when they greeted him.
His indifference was only directed at her.
Tao Zi sat absentmindedly in her seat. She hadnât yet decided what to do next, when she suddenly received the notice to go home and rest.
Tao Ziâs entire person was stunned. When she reacted, she went to Ding Lei immediately.
âBrother Ding, why do I have to rest? Iâm in a good...â
Ding Lei signaled her not to get excited. âIâve considered your recent situation, and itâs indeed not satisfactory. I know youâre not happy with such things, so take a break for some time.â
Tao Zi wasnât pacified at all, but became even more anxious. âBut the finals are coming up, Brother Ding. I can do it.â
Ding Lei: âWe have our substitutes, so you donât need to worry.â
Ding Leiâs indifferent tone made Tao Zi feel that something was wrong.
What does he mean by I âdonât need to worry?â
Iâve worked hard to finally get myself a place at Team HS and get closer to Qin Jin, but now you want me to give up. Howâs that possible!
âBrother Ding, just tell me the truth, why do you want me to rest?â
Ding Lei sighed, âIâve fought for you, Tao Zi; itâs the decision from the seniors. Go back and wait for the notice.â
Decision from the seniors. Tao Zi had no other way to argue that.
The investor behind HS was none other than the Qin family.
Qin Jin talked to Ding Lei, then she was asked to go home and rest. Even if Tao Zi didnât want to believe the connection between those two events, she had to believe it.
This matter had something to do with Qin Jin.
Tao Zi rushed into the training room to talk to Qin Jin. âQin Jin, why?â
Qin Jin looked indifferent and said carelessly, âA member with evil intentions is not allowed in my team. Ding Lei asked you to go home to rest, and he already showed kindness to you by saying that. Donât embarrasse everyone.â
Evil intentions?
Tao Ziâs face paled.
