Ji Minyue begged Shen Qianqian with no regard for her image. Soon, she attracted the attention of the people around her.
When the security guard and the receptionist saw this, they immediately stepped forward and apologized to Shen Qianqian. "We're sorry to have caused you trouble. We'll take her away immediately."
After the security guard finished speaking, he began to pull Ji Minyue away. Shen Qianqian frowned as she watched Ji Minyue cry her heart out. It seemed that her repentance was not fake. After thinking for a while, she waved at the security guard and the receptionist and said, "Forget it. It's fine."
When Ji Minyue saw that Shen Qianqian had let go of her, she felt that there was hope. When the security guard let go of her, she fell to her knees in front of Shen Qianqian.
Shen Qianqian frowned and said, "Didn't you just say that you really feel sorry for me? Why are you still kneeling like this? Aren't you afraid that someone will expose your photos and criticize me online?"
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry." When Ji Minyue heard this, she hurriedly stood up. However, she grabbed Shen Qianqian's hand tightly and said, "I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose. Can you forgive me? I really know that I was wrong. I promise that I will be a good person in the future. I will never do anything that goes against my conscience again."
Shen Qianqian was not in the mood to listen to her. She pulled her hand away and said coldly, "Forgive you? I won't forgive you. But since you really know that you were wrong and have apologized, I can let you go."
"Alright, since you've already said so, it's not right for me to make things difficult for you. However, I also hope that you remember that a casual action of yours will not only hurt others, but also yourself. I hope that such a thing won't happen again in the future."
"It won't. It definitely won't." Ji Minyue felt that she was finally saved after such a long time. She looked at Shen Qianqian gratefully.
Shen Qianqian relaxed her brows and said, "Alright, you can go back now. I will settle your matter. You can go back and wait for the news."
"Also, don't come here if you have nothing to do. Find a new job and live a good life." After Shen Qianqian finished speaking, she glanced at Ji Minyue, turned around, and walked into the elevator.
When Shen Qianqian entered Gu Hecheng's office, he had just returned from a meeting. His cold and stern face suddenly broke into a smile.
"This is for you." Shen Qianqian stood up from the sofa and handed the document to him. She said, "When I came up just now, I saw Ji Minyue."
"I saw that her attitude was quite sincere, so I agreed to let her go," Shen Qianqian said. "Let's just forget about this matter. I don't want to talk about it anymore."
"I'll listen to you." Gu Hecheng looked at her gently. Shen Qianqian turned around and said, "I'll take my leave then."
Shen Qianqian was on the way home when she suddenly received a call from her manager.
"Have you seen the news?" Her manager sounded a little anxious. Shen Qianqian could hear that she seemed to be in a very chaotic situation. "There are pictures of you and Gu Hecheng together on the internet. There are even rumors that you two have an illegitimate child. Even pictures of the child have been exposed."
"What did you say?!" Shen Qianqian felt as if someone had hit her hard on the head. When she heard the word 'child', her hand that was holding the phone trembled uncontrollably.
"I'll send you the link now. Also, what exactly is going on with the child? You have to tell me clearly so that I can deal with it." Shen Qianqian's manager looked anxious. She glanced at her phone and said, "Hold on. President Mo is calling me."
Shen Qianqian did not know how she ended the call. She immediately opened the link that her manager had sent her.
The photos were of her entering the apartment with Gu Hecheng last night. The photos were very accurate and easy to recognize. She could tell at a glance that it was her.
There was even a time stamp on the photos. There were even photos of her leaving the apartment in the morning.
As for the incident with Xiao Kong, it was just as she had guessed. When Gu Hecheng brought him out, he was not paying attention and was photographed holding him in his arms.
Shen Qianqian looked at the photos. Her hand that was holding the phone trembled violently. She quickly scrolled down. The other party had indeed taken photos of her and Xiao Kong in the same frame. Although she did not appear to be very intimate with Xiao Kong, when these photos were put together, it was enough to fill in the gaps.
In the small villa, Lin Jinya leisurely crossed her legs and scrolled through the information on the tablet.
The corners of Lin Jinya's mouth curled up proudly. She was very satisfied with the news reports about Shen Qianqian and the shocking, insulting, and mocking comments on Weibo.
"I really did not expect the popular actress Shen Qianqian to be such a person. She usually pretends to be so innocent, but her private life is actually so messy."
"Could it be that the two of them have a secret marriage? If not, whose child is it?"
"Could it be that Shen Qianqian wanted to be his wife, but failed after giving birth to his child …"
It turned out that Reporter Li had been following Shen Qianqian since the beginning. He had been following her ever since she came out of the bar. When he saw Gu Hecheng appear, he couldn't help but send Lin Jinya a text message in surprise.
Lin Jinya asked him to continue following her and told him that no matter what he took, he would immediately post it the next day.
Journalist Li had been following her for so long that he could not hold back. When he took a photo of the two of them entering and leaving the apartment together, he was so happy that he almost posted it on the spot.
Shen Qianqian did not go home. Instead, she went straight to the office.
In the office, Mo Yanfan and her manager were both there. Their expressions were a little serious.
When Mo Yanfan saw Shen Qianqian come in, he said to his manager, "You go out first. I want to talk to her."
Shen Qianqian sat down in front of Mo Yanfan. Mo Yanfan placed a few photos in front of her and said, "What exactly is going on?"
Shen Qianqian looked at the photos that she had seen online. She lowered her head and did not know how to explain.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this first. Let me ask you, what exactly is going on between you and Gu Hecheng now?" Mo Yanfan asked curiously, "Does he already know about Xiao Kong's existence? You don't really want to start over with him, do you? "
"No." Shen Qianqian hurriedly looked up to explain. However, Mo Yanfan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Then you have such thoughts?"
"…" Shen Qianqian did not know what to say for a moment. Seeing her like this, Mo Yanfan more or less understood.
"In the past, you know better than me what exactly was going on between you and Gu Hecheng. But if you feel that you can start over with him, then I naturally have no right to say anything." Mo Yanfan paused and said, "But before that, have you thought about how you are going to solve the problem in front of you?"
"Why don't you just directly announce that you and Gu Hecheng are together? But how are you going to explain Xiao Kong? Or you can just reveal everything. But if you do that, will you be able to handle the gossip that will follow?"
Mo Yanfan looked at Shen Qianqian, who was in a difficult position, and comforted her, "But actually, it's still okay. After all, when you debuted, you did not reveal any information about yourself. So, even if you really reveal it, it's not impossible."
"Let me think about it." Shen Qianqian hesitated. She stood up, wanting to leave the stifling atmosphere.
"Don't drag it out for too long. I'll only give you half a day." Mo Yanfan's voice sounded from behind her. "Or, you can tell everyone that Xiao Kong is my child. After all, the child is still under my name. Moreover, you are my cousin. There's nothing wrong with you and Xiao Kong being in contact. I just don't know if Gu Hecheng will accept this."
Mo Yanfan looked at Shen Qianqian's back and said, "I'll give you time to make a decision. But the company's stock price cannot wait any longer."
"I understand." Shen Qianqian walked out of the room in low spirits.
Shen Qianqian sat in the company's lounge with a cup of coffee in her hand. She was in a daze.
Her phone rang. It was a call from Gu Hecheng. She frowned for a moment before picking up the call.
"I'm sorry. It's all because of me." Gu Hecheng was full of guilt and self-blame. He was also a little nervous. Shen Qianqian's words, "Xiao Kong is the bottom line," still rang clearly in his ears. He did not know how this matter would affect their relationship.
"It's not because of you." Shen Qianqian rubbed her temples. She thought for a while and said, "I'll hang up first. I haven't thought of what to do."
"Okay, then I'll wait for your news." Gu Hecheng thought of Shen Qianqian's worried face and his heart ached.
"Okay." Shen Qianqian hung up the phone in annoyance. She felt like there were many thoughts in her mind, and she could not sort them out.
Although Shen Qianqian's heart had started to miss Gu Hecheng again, it seemed like there was still a cage in her heart. She could not get out, and she could not start over with him. Mo Yanfan's urging words were still ringing in her ears. She gritted her teeth and finally made a very difficult decision.
Before calling Mo Yanfan, Shen Qianqian called Gu Hecheng. "Do you trust me?"
"Huh?" Gu Hecheng was a little confused when he heard Shen Qianqian's words. "What do you mean?"
"Can you trust my decision? No matter what statement I make in the future, can you support me?" Shen Qianqian lowered her voice and asked seriously.
Gu Hecheng was silent for a while. "As long as you let me see Xiao Kong and you, no matter what decision you make, I'll support you. Can we meet this evening? "
"Okay." Shen Qianqian thought for a while and said what was on her mind. "Actually, Xiao Kong's household registration was changed to my cousin Mo Yanfan's name a long time ago."
