Chapter 184: Follow up

Gu Yan, she was the person who hated me the most. If she was the culprit, everything would make sense. But she didn’t expect that we were stalking Jing Ning, Ye Qian, and Nanyang. Ye Qian probably didn’t tell her what she was doing. This was such a twist of fate.
After settling Mai Qi, I ran to wait for Jing Tian. Jing Tian returned late but he didn’t look unhappy. He handed my laptop to me.
I took the computer happily and asked him, “Don’t you want to know what’s in it?”
He patted my head with a smile. “I’m not worried about you.”
I extracted the information from the computer, but Jing Tian wasn’t interested in reading it.
“You’re Sky City’s Sister Xing. You need to decide these things on your own. I can’t intervene.” Jing Tian said in a faint but determined voice.
I thought for a moment. “What if I get into trouble?”
“Then I will help you take care of it. Don’t be afraid. Do you want. We grow up from our mistakes. How can one succeed without failing?” Jing Tian said slowly.
My heart warmed. Jing Tian treated me the same as he did in my previous life. I am his only love!
All kinds of rumors spread on the Internet.
‘Young Master Ning sharing a room with 2 girls. 2 girls 1 man. Young Master Ning, our age’s playboy.’
‘The 7th Master of the Jing Family, Jing Tian, went to the police station to pick up his disappointing nephew.’
‘Young Master Ning’s position as the heir is no longer stable.’
‘The eldest daughter of the Nan Family is willing to be one’s mistress for the sake of love.’
In a few days, every member of the Jing Family was reported by the media. Even Jing Yan’s trip to the sanitarium was dug up as well as the question regarding Jing Tian’s sexuality. The Jing Family became a laughing stock of the city.
Nanyang’s reputation at the art school sunk. However, the media mentioned not a single word of Ye Qian, the male officials, and the beauties from the art schools.
I had to admit that Ye Qian was very good at damage control. Only a genius could come up with this strategy. It was like a gecko shedding its tail to save itself!
She pushed the Jing Family and Nanyang to take the fall while she retreated unscathed. Although to be fair, this didn’t really impact the Jing Family. At most, people would say that Jing Ning was a playboy. Then again which young master wasn’t a playboy, this wouldn’t really affect his chance at the inheritance.
Therefore, I suspected Jing Ning had added some of the news himself. The worse his reputation, the more the officials would appreciate him for taking the focus off them. Jing Ning had impressed me with his brain.
I pulled out the info from that night. I wouldn’t let anyone off the hook, including the police officers who had been bribed. I wanted to have them understand the price of taking dirty money.
They had no idea that when they entered our booth, I had switched on the hidden recording function on my laptop. Every word and action of those people had been recorded.
I edited the important parts out and had Tan Si send them to Captain Nie. I returned him a favor, I needed more people like him on my side. He had treated Jing Tian well so I would treat him well.
Mai Qi didn’t return to school. Her family lawyer told me that Mai Qi insisted on staying with me. I had no idea why Mai Qi had approved of me so much but I didn’t mind her staying by my side.
After all, I was only going to stay at home. I had to use Jing Tian’s computer to deal with some things. Mai Qi didn’t have any problem. Her door to the new world had been opened.
The girl enjoyed it very much.
The experience at the detention center gave her a taste of being a ‘bad’ girl. She wanted to stay by my side. She even asked me how to join Sky City.
I didn’t know what to say.. I still wanted Sky City to continue to grow. If I took in the princess, that was definitely not going to happen! We’d crush before we knew what happened!
