Chapter 619 - I’m Not a Kind Person Anyway

Ye Jingcheng had also got a strong team of hackers from the entertainment industry. When the news was removed from the top searches list, it would come up again with other keywords.

His motive was very clear—he wanted to make Mu Qiqi feel miserable.

He knew that after the corpse was confirmed to not be Mu Tangxue, the matter would be over and done with. It wouldn’t be enough to threaten Sheng Xiao to hand Mu Tangxue over to him. Nevertheless, he already had another plan coming. Even if Mu Qiqi clarified the matter, he would create another big drama for her.

How was it possible for him to just prepare one script for her?

The matter stirred up quite a commotion in the public. Even Grandpa Sheng heard the nurses gossiping.

This was the very reason why he was against the relationship between Mu Qiqi and Eighth Brother.

Her birth would make people laugh at and humiliate the people who she was close with.

Tomorrow was the day Sheng Xiao was going to the state banquet, but Mu Qiqi was targeted by the media at this juncture. Weren’t they just trying to embarrass Eighth Brother?

Grandpa Sheng’s face looked ugly the whole night.

However, when he thought about it carefully, he knew Eighth Brother would be able to overcome the problem. Didn’t he always manage to get through anything and everything safely? Why should he be worried about it?

But once he thought about Mu Qiqi’s complicated and disgraceful birth, Grandpa Sheng would be hit with annoyance.

When Sheng Bowen entered the ward and saw Grandpa Sheng’s unhappy face, he could already guess the reason. He smiled. “I’ve come to visit you after working for a whole day in Huang Yao. Don’t you feel sorry for me?”

“As long as the problem with Mu Qiqi’s background is not resolved, Eighth Brother will continue to be ridiculed by the people.”

“People have the freedom of speech. We cannot control them.”

“But it will get very ugly once the trouble becomes bigger. People can use this at any time and anywhere.” Grandpa Sheng felt helpless. “It’s not that I want to separate that girl from Eighth Brother. I just think that if she can solve this problem, she won’t drag Eighth Brother down.”

Grandpa Sheng described her as a burden to Sheng Xiao.

But he knew that nobody could choose their birth and history.

“I can’t comment on the matters between Eighth Sister-in-law and her twin sister as I don’t know the whole story. But I trust her, and I trust Eighth Brother.”

Grandpa Sheng pondered and waved his hand. “I shall see how Eighth Brother is going to attend the state banquet tomorrow.”

...

To Sheng Xiao, if he didn’t bring Xiao Qi’er along to the state banquet, there would be no one he could share his happiness with.

Therefore, no matter how much the others opposed to it, he would bring his little thing along.

However, it didn’t stop Mu Qiqi from worrying. She was worried that she might bring shame to Sheng Xiao. She feared that her birth would make Sheng Xiao a laughingstock. So, even when she was asleep, she was very anxious in her dreams.

“It has nothing to do with Xiaoxiao! No, don’t say that! My Mommy is not a slut!”

Sheng Xiao was awakened by her mumbling. He got up and looked at Mu Qiqi whose forehead was sweating because of her nightmare. Then, he gently stroked Mu Qiqi’s head. When she had finally relaxed, he got out from the bed, wore his black night robe, and went to his study. It was three in the morning.

He didn’t expect Xiao Qi’er to get so anxious about going to the state banquet. But it was because of this that he insisted on bringing heri along. He wanted to tell the other people that he did not mind people criticizing her birth.

On the other hand, Ye Jingcheng was indeed tired of living.

He was looking for Mu Tangxue, wasn’t he?

It’s not that he couldn’t. But, he would have to suffer.

So, at three o’clock, Sheng Xiao called Xu Che. “I have some recordings here. Get me a few voice actors who are good at imitating other people’s voices. I want them ready before sunrise.”

When Xu Che received a mission late at night, he could only get out of his bed quickly and start working. Because he knew under Ye Jingcheng’s provocation, Sheng Xiao’s heart was burning with rage.

If it was in the past, he would tie Ye Jingcheng up on the hill for one whole day. However, after half a year had passed, he had matured a lot. He would not let other people hold any evidence that would enable them to retaliate in the future.

...

The next day, since the interview arranged by Zhongteng was at ten, Mu Qiqi went to the police station first.

“The corpse was stolen from somewhere else, and the fire was deliberately set. This case is specially targeted at you.” Feng Shanshan pointed to the corpse and said, “Tang Yan has already gone out with the team to look into the origins of the corpse. After all, it’s a fresh corpse of a twenty-three-year-old woman who had given birth before. Not many will fulfil the criteria. You have become the target of the whole nation now. What’s your Chief Sheng’s plan?”

“He’s already arranged an interview for me.” Mu Qiqi shrugged.

“Even if you clarify the matter, the damage done to your image will not be eliminated immediately. How are you going to attend the state banquet?”

“My image has never been good,” Mu Qiqi said in a complicated mood. “My birth and my grievance with Mu Tangxue are unchangeable facts. Especially the fact that Mu Tangxue and I had different fathers. How can my image get any better?”

Feng Shanshan shook her head. “Even if you are loved by so many, you still have your problems. If your life is too perfect, God will be jealous of you. How about Ye Jingcheng? What’s your plan?”

Mu Qiqi shook her head. “I’m not a kind person anyway. But I will go for the interview in Zhongteng first. When there’s any update here, tell me immediately.”

Feng Shanshan nodded. “Bye.”

Mu Qiqi wasn’t just someone who’s not kind, she’s a vengeful person.

She could forget about Ye Jingcheng bullying her when they were young. She could ignore him when he didn’t do anything to her when he was abroad. But now, he was back, and he was still so unscrupulous. He might be too proud to take her seriously.

“Will this girl do anything that will make people worry?” The professor was concerned.

“No.” Feng Shanshan vetoed his concern right away. “She has learned the skills from Sheng Xiao. She will not expose herself to any danger stupidly for unworthy people. That’s the stupidest method to solve the problem. However, this is her private matter. It depends solely on her.”

“Going to the state banquet is such a glorious thing, but now it has become such an awkward situation. The person behind this is too wicked.”

Feng Shanshan did not say much. She just wanted to see what would happen to Ye Jingcheng in the end.

It might be okay to provoke Mu Qiqi. Although she was vengeful, she would not be too cruel.

But Sheng Xiao was different.

And Ye Jingcheng had crossed the line.

Feng Shanshan could imagine what Mu Qiqi would do. But who would be able to know what Sheng Xiao would do? Before he made his move, everything was possible.
