However, after the call was connected, there was a long silence.
After several seconds, Xie Yuqing gave a tentative "hello".
"Um."
There was a low response from the other side.
What are you doing? Why are you beating her if you don't say anything?
Xie Yuqing minimized the voice window, deleted the draft in the input box, and said, "I'm sorry, I was in a bad mood just now."
"I didn't think carefully." A clear voice slowly sounded, "I didn't expect someone to set me up."
"The opposite company?" Xie Yuqing guessed.
She had indeed heard that the entertainment industry was in dire straits, and it was not uncommon for companies to throw dirty water between companies and send out negative press releases.
"That's right."
"I saw your Weibo." Xie Yuqing played with the folds of the sheets, "Thank you."
He said on Weibo that they had known each other for a long time, but did not reveal that they went to the same high school, which somewhat avoided possible trouble.
Yu Qing seemed to hear what she meant and asked, "If I say it, will you be angry?"
Xie Yuqing thought for a while, "Maybe not, but it would be more troublesome."
In fact, even if he mentioned it, there was nothing she could do. After all, he had a legitimate reason to refute the rumor, but public opinion would definitely ferment further, and she didn't want to change from the center of the rumor to the center of another scandal.
She is most afraid of trouble.
Hearing this, there was a burst of laughter on the phone, and he said, "I won't tell anyone about 'we are high school classmates' without your permission, but if you are the one, you can tell me at any time."
"So it sounds like the initiative is in my hands?"
"Um."
Gloomy dark clouds suppressed the night, and the wind on the beach was strong, ruffling Yu Qing's hair and brushing aside her bangs, revealing a pair of slightly soft red phoenix eyes.
"Anyway, you have a good rest."
After hanging up the phone, he turned around, and the tenderness in his eyes disappeared in an instant.
Beside the waves crashing on the shore, the wind was blowing, and in the dark and cold night, a man was pushed to his knees by bodyguards, and his mouth was gagged with a piece of cloth.
Yu Qing walked over slowly, took off his gag, and asked quietly, "Is there anything else you want to say?"
The man raised his head and revealed a bitter face. Who was it if it wasn't Yue Ke?
"What else can I say? Do you believe what I say?"
"Believe it or not is my business."
"Okay, I admit that I still have feelings for Xie Yuqing, but I do this more for you."
Yu Qing snorted lightly, "I'm listening."
His eyebrows were slightly curved, and the corners of his mouth were turned up. This smile could be malicious or a little disdainful. You can describe it any way, but it definitely had nothing to do with Ji Yue Qingfeng.
Yue Ke indeed understood him better than anyone else. His dignified and superior appearance gave him a sense of distance, but beneath that skin, there was evil and cruelty hidden everywhere.
No matter how he hides it, no matter how humble and elegant the parents who raised him are, the things inherited in the blood can never be concealed.
Just like when he almost crippled the male classmate in Xie Yuqing's class, he was ruthless and domineering in his heart.
"You helped me back then, and everything I have now was made by you. There is no way I could betray you! But now... Xingluo's people are chasing too closely, and Xie Yuqing..." Yue Ke said in a seductive voice, "
You can't be together."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold punch hit his face.
Yue Ke felt a sharp pain in his right cheek.
The man standing tall in front of him shook his hand, smiled at him, and said in a voice as thick as ice, "I changed my mind."
"I don't like to hear what you say."
At the beach, waves crashed onto the shore one after another, and the loud noises were mixed with screams, causing the bodyguard to turn his back unbearably.
