Qiao Lian waited patiently for Zhang Chunhua to finish mocking and ridiculing her, before she twitched her mouth and asked, “Are you done?”
The woman narrowed her eyes at once .
Spreading her hands, she said, “Can I leave now then?”
If it weren’t for Zhang Chunhua being in the way, she would have left rather than stand here listening to the woman spouting nonsense .
Upon hearing Qiao Lian’s words, she was annoyed and rather exasperated .
This wasn’t the reaction that she was hoping to see from Qiao Lian . She wanted to see a pleading and panicky Qiao Lian who was at a complete loss .
She wanted to see the girl relegated to the bottom of the pit and thoroughly ashamed .
But the person standing before her now was as arrogant as ever, just like when she had been in the news agency .
A mere newcomer who talked as though she was above her .
Yet on this matter, Zhang Chunhua was in fact grossly mistaken .
Qiao Lian had an excellent family background and, even though she had fallen into dire straits these years, her innate pride was intact .
In fact, compared to how she had been before her family’s downfall, she was now much more restrained .
The sort of workers that Zhang Chunhua liked were those who would follow her around and stroke her ego . And because Qiao Lian had not done this, she thought the girl was too arrogant .
However there was nothing more for her to say, hence, she had to get out of the way to let Qiao Lian pass .
Without another look at the woman, the latter walked out .
As Zhang Chunhua looked at her figure disappear, she gritted her teeth with anger .
She only managed to calm down after taking a few deep breaths .
What was the hurry?
In any case, she would be just as embarrassed when the press conference started later on .
There was no way that Shen Liangchuan would admit his affair with Forget Chuan in the presence of all these media representatives .
At the thought of this, she heaved a sigh of relief and walked away .
After leaving the washroom, Qiao Lian went to the lounge where Shen Zihao was waiting .
He was browsing through Weibo and lamenting at the same time, “These people are morons!”
Then he looked up at Qiao Lian and frowned . “Why aren’t you worried at all?”
“Would worrying help with anything?” she replied as she sat down calmly, apparently unruffled .
“That,” Shen Zihao thought, “is very logical . ”
Worrying wouldn’t help with anything .
But still…
He glanced at her a few times and then said with some hesitation, “Is there something you’re not telling me? I just feel that something’s not quite right . ”
She simply pursed her lips and smiled .
As she was about to say something, one of the workers ran in to inform, “Ms . Qiao, Best Actor Shen is here . Song Cheng asked you to join us at the press conference . ”
Qiao Lian nodded and stood up to follow the worker .
However, after she took two steps, Shen Zihao held her back by tugging at her sleeve . “Hey, you’re definitely not so silly as to help your husband clarify the matter?”
She didn’t have a chance to speak .
Shen Zihao frowned and said immediately, “I’ll go with you . ”
They both followed the worker as he led them out .
As they entered the conference room, they saw that Song Cheng was already on the stage to start the event with a welcome speech . “First of all, we thank everyone for taking the time out of your busy schedule to be here . ”
Shen Zihao quietly asked Qiao Lian, “Say, do you think that Forget Chuan will be here? I wonder what she looks like for Shen Liangchuan to be so infatuated . I’m sure she’s a real sl*t . ”
Qiao Lian replied, “… She’s already here . ”
Looking around with surprise, he asked, “Where?”
At this point, a reporter spotted them and approached her, inquiring, “Forget Chuan, may I ask if you’re really Best Actor Shen’s mistress?”
