“Didn’t you see the news about Gu Yusheng and me? We’re going to get married,” Liang Doukou continued. “And what do you want? Don’t forget who gave you money to pay back your father’s debt and what you promised me for that! How could you chase after Gu Yusheng without any shame?”
If Zhou Jing had been there, Liang Doukou would have been able to control herself, but as it was she became more enraged as she spoke.
“I am warning you to stay away from Gu Yusheng. He is my man. Do not even think about him. Grandpa Gu acknowledges only me as his daughter-in-law. As long as I live, you will be tortured with desire to marry Gu Yusheng.
“If you’re not worried about your mother being in an accident, or you being harassed yourself, you go ahead and continue chasing him. I was kind to you before—no one was really hurt—but if you want to try me I’m sure I can think of some—
“Oh, that’s right, you have a younger brother, don’t you? Isn’t he going to graduate soon? I heard he’s a good student, and his school would like to have him continue toward a doctor’s degree at Q University. Do you think his life might be ruined if, say, he was accused of rape or theft? How would those accusations look on his records?
“And your good friend, the one living with you? If ruining your brother’s life isn’t enough, then I can easily arrange to ruin hers, too. You were lucky when you were ‘posing,’ when Yusheng saved you. But your friend won’t be so lucky. If you don’t believe me, I can arrange a session for her and then you can watch her videos yourself, just as soon as I make them public—”
A loud slap silenced Liang Doukou’s tirade. She stared at Qin Zhi’ai for a few seconds with a shocked look before lifting her hand to cover her face.
When her fingers touched her cheeks, the sting made her realize what had just happened. Her eyes pitched fire at Qin Zhi’ai. “How dare you sla—”
Before she could finish, Qin Zhi’ai slapped Liang Doukou again.
With her pregnancy in mind, Qin Zhi’ai was afraid Liang Doukou was becoming more aggressive and could hurt her, so she offensively grabbed Liang Doukou’s wrist so she’d have no chance to assault her.
She looked coldly at Liang Doukou and said, “Are you really that blind? Why do you think Gu Yusheng bought Hui Shi? Why do you think Gu Yusheng hired me as his secretary?”
“You wanted to kick me out of Hui Shi so badly because you were afraid Gu Yusheng would figure out that I was your body double.” Qin Zhi’ai continued to list Liang Doukou’s worries. “You should well know that I didn’t tell Gu Yusheng the truth, right? I admit that I did not tell Gu Yusheng the truth because I appreciated your helping me pay back my father’s debt; however, my appreciation wore out when you did such disgusting things to my mother and me.”
