Shi Yaoguang held the base of the cake, gave it a forceful twirl, and then retracted her hand.
Her gaze remained steady as she looked at her, her tone devoid of any fluctuations.
Shi Yaoguang’s voice was calm and unruffled, showing no sign of what she had just done.
Shi Yiqing’s entire face was smeared with cake, even her nostrils were clogged with cream.
The area around her eyes was covered with chocolate crumbs, making her look utterly disheveled.
Now, hearing Shi Yaoguang ask her if she was happy, Shi Yiqing was completely taken aback.
What did Shi Yaoguang mean?
It was definitely on purpose!
Thinking this, she directly challenged her.
"Do you know what you are doing?"
Shi Yaoguang nodded, "Of course I know what I am doing. Isn’t this what you wanted? Since you wanted it, I granted it. Is there anything wrong with that?"
Upon hearing these words, Shi Yiqing was incredulous.
"You know what I want to do?"
Shi Yaoguang replied indifferently, "Nonsense."
If not for knowing what she wanted to do, Shi Yaoguang would not have been there.
Hearing this, Shi Yiqing grew even more puzzled.
"You know what I want to do, and you still dare to come see me?"
"Why wouldn’t I dare?"
Shi Yaoguang spoke, her expression eager for a challenge, "Or is it that you think I haven’t done enough and want me to go further?"
Shi Yiqing froze completely.
She would be foolish to hope for Shi Yaoguang to continue her antics.
She had been doused with coffee from head to toe and her face smeared with cake.
Her current state was as disheveled as could be.
She couldn’t even bear to think of the ridicule she would face if seen in this state by others!
"I’ve been so cooperative with you, and you don’t even appreciate it, what’s with that expression?"
Shi Yaoguang sighed, portraying a sense of grievance, "If you think I haven’t gone far enough, you can just say it. We can discuss it together."
Shi Yiqing met her penetrating gaze and felt a chill from the bottom of her heart.
She had no idea how Shi Yaoguang knew her thoughts.
But as she was watched like that, unease filled Shi Yiqing’s heart.
Shi Yaoguang didn’t pay any attention to her thoughts. Seeing that she no longer needed her cooperation, she stood up and left gracefully.
Before leaving, she didn’t forget to turn back and say something to Shi Yiqing.
"If you need my cooperation next time, feel free to come find me."
After saying this, she walked away, regardless of Shi Yiqing’s shock and disbelief.
Shi Yiqing watched her departing figure, a sense of uncertainty welling up inside her.
She didn’t understand what Shi Yaoguang meant.
But one thing she did understand very clearly was that Shi Yaoguang knew what she wanted to do.
If Shi Yaoguang knew her plan, why would she cooperate with her?
What was her purpose in doing this?
No matter how hard Shi Yiqing racked her brains, she couldn’t fathom the reason.
In the end, she attributed Shi Yaoguang’s behavior to her being mentally unwell.
Beyond that, she could think of no other possibility.
In fact, Shi Yiqing was overthinking.
Shi Yaoguang was willing to cooperate, but...
This didn’t mean that Shi Yaoguang was on her side.
Shi Yiqing wanted to record a video to accuse Shi Yaoguang of her "misdeeds," and although Yaoguang cooperated, it didn’t mean she couldn’t think of ways to prove her innocence.
One could say that Shi Yiqing oversimplified her thoughts about Shi Yaoguang.
Since Yaoguang dared to cooperate, she wasn’t afraid of Yiqing causing trouble.
Unfortunately, Yiqing’s mind wasn’t as nimble at the moment.
All she could think about now was that she had achieved her goal.
Shi Yaoguang, fully aware of the deceit, was still willing to cooperate, which almost certainly meant she had a screw loose.
Not giving it much thought, Yiqing secretly delighted in possessing the video.
Soon, Shi Yiqing arranged everything and went abroad to the Wei Family.
Before leaving, she cheered Quan Sicheng on, wishing him a triumphant start.
As for herself, she had bribed an influencer, determined to disturb Shi Yaoguang’s composure.
The day before the gaokao.
Suddenly, a lot of videos about "school bullying" appeared online.
The protagonists of the videos were none other than Shi Yaoguang and Shi Yiqing.
In several clips, Yiqing was portrayed as a pitiful victim bullied by Yaoguang, the "tormentor."
Without going into detail, just by looking at the pitiful appearance of Shi Yiqing in the video, many people would likely sympathize with her.
The moment they felt sympathy for her, they couldn’t help but harbor resentment against the aggressor.
In just half an hour, the topic of "school bullying" had skyrocketed to the top of the trending searches.
Shi Yaoguang was clearly identified, and her persona was quickly exposed.
Netizens began to vilify her with so-called wisdom.
As the curses and slurs arrived as expected, Shi Yiqing, bypassing internet restrictions, watched the Chinese Weibo platform from abroad, her heart blooming with joy.
These days, her experience at the Wei Family had been nothing but smooth.
Her grandfather treated her very well, and although her uncle was indifferent to her, he didn’t refuse her request to take a look at the company.
Even when outsiders asked about her identity, Wei Jinyan reluctantly introduced her.
As the niece acknowledged by Wei Jinyan, her status was naturally extraordinary.
These days, Shi Yiqing had almost been acting as if she were the heir of the Wei Family.
Now, looking at the news online, she was even more excited.
Wei Qingtian saw Shi Yiqing sitting on the couch, laughing happily, and walked towards her.
"Qingqing, what are you watching that’s making you so happy?"
Upon hearing his voice, Shi Yiqing immediately restrained her laughter, adopting a very shy demeanor, "Grandpa, I’m watching an entertainment video. This blogger makes really funny stuff."
She said, handing her phone to Wei Qingtian, inviting him to watch together.
Wei Qingtian was very accommodating.
After looking at the phone, the content was indeed funny as she said, a comedy video.
After the comedy video ended, it automatically switched to the next video within three seconds.
The content of this video, accompanied by exciting background music and the commentator’s narration.
Needless to say, this video was the one showcasing Shi Yaoguang "bullying" Shi Yiqing.
Shi Yiqing behaved as if nothing had happened, calmly watching Wei Qingtian’s reaction.
"Grandpa, do you enjoy these kinds of videos? I know many bloggers..."
Wei Qingtian’s face darkened, looking at her with anger clearly etched in his eyes.
Shi Yiqing went on talking for quite a while, pretending to notice his upset demeanor, and then quickly asked, "Grandpa, what’s wrong?"
Wei Qingtian took a deep breath, his look grave, "This video..."
Shi Yiqing, puzzled, "What about this video?"
Wei Qingtian, as if infuriated, asked, "Is the person in this video you?"
Shi Yiqing showed an appropriately surprised expression, and after taking the phone and looking at it, she seemed a bit flustered.
She hurriedly explained, "That’s not me, grandpa. You must have seen it wrong."
She sounded confident, but her facial expressions were uncertain.
Clearly, she was lying.
