Chapter 175: Ms. Liang Is Too Crazy! Qin Jiang Can’t Take It!

Song Jie was stunned by Sister Bingbing’s words. He outwardly seemed compliant toward Sister Bingbing, but deep down he didn’t believe there was any possibility between him and Sister Bingbing.

Perhaps a woman like Sister Bingbing was merely sympathetic and curious about someone like him, an “honest man” who had been cheated on so badly.

Women always have a streak of savior complex.

They always want to rescue fallen men from fire and water.

Of course, men are the same.

Men love to “save a fallen woman” for the same reason — they like pulling a damsel in distress ashore and playing the savior.

And none of that is love.

Song Jie had had feelings before. He just thought Sister Bingbing’s kindness toward him was born of curiosity — because she’d never encountered a man as miserable as him, she played rescuer.

Sister Bingbing could play with him.

But he was different — he truly didn’t deserve her and had no right to hold her back.

Still, given how things had escalated, Song Jie had to go along with Sister Bingbing’s actions.

Moreover, regarding Qin Xiangyun, he genuinely wanted to kick her a few times!!

The bitch who bullied Brother Jiang — he had the ability to grind her haughty face into the dust.

“Sister Bingbing, I’m afraid Miss Qin wouldn’t have the time to eat.”

“The couture you’re wearing is UK’s haute couture runway dress. UK Group is an aristocratic brand from Country F, serving top tycoons, nobility and socialites only. Any female star who wants to wear their couture must be specially chosen by the brand to be eligible to wear it in social venues.”

“And not only did Miss Qin wear it, she wore a counterfeit haute couture piece — it’s likely already harmed UK’s brand image so that legal letter will probably arrive soon.”

“Congratulations, Miss Qin Xiangyun, you’re busy right after returning home — truly a big~star~~”

Song Jie spoke sarcastically, venting all his resentment over Qin Xiangyun’s past bullying of Brother Jiang.

He couldn’t stand how everyone in the Qin family took Brother Jiang for granted, treating him like a lackey and a beast of burden to command!

He was a man, and moreover an emotional, loyal family member!

But what did he get in return?

Song Jie swore that as long as he was still standing, he could at least make Qin Xiangyun taste what it’s like to be betrayed and abused by the people she trusted most.

Everyone of the sharp, influential types present understood Song Jie’s words perfectly.

But coming from Song Jie’s mouth, it was like dropping a huge bomb into a high-society circle that usually pretended not to notice.

“She’s Qin Xiangyun? Seems popular in foreign racing circles, but no matter how popular she’s just a publicity tool… Now she’s offended the world’s biggest aristocratic brand… tsk, I guess she won’t be able to wear top haute couture in this life, won’t be able to turn her value around.”

“Tsk tsk, of all people to offend, she had to offend the internet nouveau riche Qin Jiang — so what if she’s a so-called biological sister? I’ve watched those court livestreams. How many good ones are there in the Qin family? A bunch of dog-eat-dog trash!!”

“Looks like Qin Xiangyun’s commercial value has collapsed. I heard internet tycoon Zhao Xiong even spent big to sign Qin Xiangyun — this is definitely… CEO Zhao’s venture collapsing halfway~”

Not far away, Zhao Xiong had been watching the situation. He had indeed signed Qin Xiangyun and was planning to push her to the top-tier ‘top-stream beautiful racer’ position.

As for Zhao Group, presently firmly occupying the internet market as the big brother.

Creating a new star was too easy.

But now, Qin Xiangyun was so disappointing.

She got into trouble right after returning home!

But who could so quickly block his “star-making plan” and do it so subtly that even a crafty veteran like Qin Xiangyun would be taken in?

Zhao Xiong was momentarily terrified upon deeper thought!!

His gaze slowly swept the room and landed on the clear, calm temper of Qin Jiang. The young man’s eyes met his squarely…

Zhao Xiong’s eyes widened.

Damn! Did he do it??

The moment Zhao Xiong’s eyes met Qin Jiang’s, a cold, chilling feeling ran down his spine.

Everyone here was a seasoned veteran in business. Fledgling entrepreneurs like Qin Jiang were the easiest to be swallowed up.

But Qin Jiang not only stood firm in the storms but steadily rose against the current. Such a new entrepreneur was exactly the type of person industry big shots like him needed to worry about.

However, at heart Zhao Xiong essentially looked down on Qin Jiang, so at first he had no interest in messing with him.

But only a few months had passed.

The internet market changes rapidly, and Qin Jiang seized the opportunity to reach growth rates Zhao had not even been able to achieve at the time.

If things continued to develop as they were now.

Zhao Group’s status as an internet big shot would sooner or later be challenged by the Jiang Yan Group established by Qin Jiang.

Whether the future would be side-by-side competition or a monopoly, no one could say!

Therefore, if Zhao Xiong was smart, he must now treat Qin Jiang as a competitor.

He had only just taken notice of Qin Jiang, the “little ant,” and in a blink Qin Jiang had already appeared before him, catching him off guard.

He caught him completely unprepared.

Fortunately Zhao Xiong wasn’t a coward. He had real strength in business, which is why he sat in a managerial position.

At such a moment, Zhao Xiong wisely didn’t step forward. He had his assistant find a random waiter, planning to spill a glass of red wine on Qin Xiangyun’s dress to stop this embarrassing devaluation immediately.

After all, although Qin Xiangyun had embarrassed herself.

And her high-level commercial value was suppressed, but ultimately it would be the racing competition itself that could elevate her again.

The treasure he was banking on — this move — wasn’t completely lost yet.

The key now was to protect Qin Xiangyun!!

Qin Xiangyun immediately realized this point too.

She’d fallen into someone’s trap!

And that person was highly likely to be Qin Jiang!!

So Qin Xiangyun’s gaze shifted; anxiety and helplessness flashed in her eyes. “Wha…what?”

“Miss Bingbing, I’m just a professional racing driver. I know too little about the fashion and entertainment circles, I didn’t know this couture I was wearing was set up…”

“I had no intention of offending UK Group. I’m sorry to have clashed with you and mistakenly worn an inferior counterfeit haute couture dress. I will pursue this matter to the end and compensate UK Group for any costs from pursuing my liability and any damage to their brand influence!”

“I’m really sorry! Sister Bingbing, you’re amazing… to have happened to wear a genuine couture piece today and completely outshine little me, a rookie racer who just returned home.”

Qin Xiangyun hurriedly spoke, though she knew she could only do little to make amends and her public image would inevitably suffer.

But as long as she expressed her innocence and eagerness to cover all losses.

At least even if everything from today were exposed.

The damage to her personal image would be minimized.

She didn’t collapse into hysteria. Instead, by proactively taking responsibility and offering to make amends, she actually won a lot of sympathy.

Some of the big shots present usually didn’t bother with such “small matters.”

It was just a performer’s commercial value — they didn’t care much.

But the true “high-level performer” Sister Bingbing was different. She had family ties with Yan Liang and was also on good terms with Yan Liang.

Just for that reason, she was regarded several levels higher by everyone present.

She had long shed the identity of a mere performer and was one of them!

Now, after Qin Xiangyun finished explaining, she deliberately added a line questioning why Sister Bingbing happened to wear that genuine couture.

These words seemed ambiguous.

In fact, the savvy people present always dug for deeper meaning in every sentence.

Qin Xiangyun’s remark was essentially pointing to the culprit who caused her to mistakenly wear fake haute couture and lose high commercial value… namely Sister Bingbing.

Sister Bingbing was firmly seated as a top-tier star in the entertainment circle.

Yet she was “bullying” a rising star from the sports world like this.

This move was an invisible loss of face.

And her phrase “little racer” subtly erased her intention to enter the fashion and entertainment circles, distinguishing herself from Sister Bingbing.

The implication was: she’s not even a competitor to Sister Bingbing, yet she’s pitifully being treated like a fellow new star by her.

She was too innocent, too pitiful!

With a few words, she put herself in the position of “victim.”

This made Sister Bingbing look culpable, as if she had done this on purpose to frame Qin Xiangyun.

That move of hers was indeed impressive.

Yet though there were many savvy people present, in the end they all went with the opinion of just one person in the whole room.

“Mm, my niece did outshine you.”

“That’s a fact.”

“You’re flattering her perfectly — want me to send you off with a single coin?”

Yan Liang’s gaze was disdainful. She had little interest in so-called haute couture dresses.

With a great figure she could wear any dress, she was a natural clothes rack — in form-fitting cuts her graceful figure gave off a cold, glamorous dominance, without any vulgarity.

She had so many haute couture dresses, so when her niece Bingbing asked for a few of the couture gowns she’d worn for a red carpet event, she felt nothing.

She waved her hand and let her have them.

It was just a trivial favor.

But that small gift was treatment beyond what any entertainment actress, even top-tier ones, could get.

At this moment, seeing Qin Xiangyun’s sarcastic words, given Yan Liang’s temperament, Qin Xiangyun couldn’t see the sun tomorrow.

Tomorrow she could crash with her beloved race car off some unknown, difficult cliff.

Perhaps her body would be torn apart by hounds and wolves…

However, her identity was Jiang’s third sister. Even though Jiang was currently indifferent toward the Qin family, the Young Mistress still didn’t dare to harm Qin family members with her own hands.

She could only assist Qin Jiang from behind in any plan to deal with the Qin family.

She couldn’t bear… couldn’t bear the possibility that hurting Jiang’s family might give Qin Jiang a reason to leave her.

In the past, she just wanted to get close to any of the Qin sisters, to meet Jiang’s family at the Qins’, and to show filial piety on his behalf at home…

Her family in the Yan household could not give her the familial affection she wanted.

So she wanted to integrate into Jiang’s family.

She could also be a good wife to Qin Jiang.

Unfortunately, Qin Jiang refused to let her near his family. She had even planned to give some shares of the Yan Group to the Qin sisters as a meeting gift to win over Qin Jiang.

Qin Jiang sternly refused.

He even tore up the share-transfer contract she’d already prepared.

It was that time when Qin Jiang looked at her with hatred mixed with complexity. “Yan Liang, what exactly are you trying to do?”

“My family can never become your family — give up that idea! Don’t think you can buy them behind my back!!”

“Otherwise, I’ll set myself on fire. I’ll make you have nothing but a pile of my ashes…”

Qin Jiang went mad, as if he didn’t care about his life.

That gripped Yan Liang’s lifeline tightly.

She didn’t care if she died, but when it came to Qin Jiang, she couldn’t bear him receiving even the slightest harm.

“Fine.”

“I promise I won’t approach any Qin family members or hurt them, but Jiang… what if they hurt you?”

At heart Yan Liang wasn’t a good person. She looked at the Qin family with a villain’s eyes and could clearly feel how much the Qin family exploited her Jiang.

But at home, this person would cause a commotion at the slightest move from her.

Gradually, Yan Liang could only turn a blind eye to the Qin family.

“That’s also a matter for our Qin family.”

“Yan Liang, you will never become my family! I won’t let you have the right to intervene in the familial bond between me and my sisters. Though their faces are cold, we are bound by blood… even if there is harm, it’s between our own family — none of your business as an outsider!!”

“Yan Liang, don’t touch them — they are my life!”

Qin Jiang’s words, his aggressive attitude, even the way he glared at her with a vicious warning.

In Qin Jiang’s eyes, he had crazily staked his life in a bargain with the monstrous Young Mistress for the sake of the Qin sisters.

But all this, through the eyes of Yan Liang.

Though she did have some apprehension.

Yet the Young Mistress’s gaze couldn’t help but slowly roam over Qin Jiang’s well-built, tall body.

Hmm… her look even had a kind of hunger, as if she wanted to disassemble him and devour him.

“Jiang, if I agree… what benefit do I get?”

“Jiang, you know what I like most.”

“Take off your pants and lie down nicely, and I’ll agree.”

Yan Liang stepped forward. She seemed threatened by Qin Jiang’s words, but she was strong enough, and Qin Jiang’s little threats didn’t really concern her.

The most infuriating thing was that in Qin Jiang’s eyes, they were apparently more important than her…

She really wanted to skin each of them alive.

To dig out their heart and soul~

Unfortunately, Jiang would cry, and would be afraid.

So all that was put on hold.

Facing Yan Liang’s sudden request, Qin Jiang stared at her almost incredulously, his indifferent gaze was tinged with a flush of crimson. “Yan Liang!!”

“Just last night…”

Qin Jiang’s ears suddenly flushed crimson, his clear eyes widened in deep shock at the Young Mistress’s appetite.

Moreover, at that time Qin Jiang was completely unwilling to be possessed by Yan Liang.

The Young Mistress could only exhaust every method to “possess” Qin Jiang by other means.

Each method was enough to upend Qin Jiang’s worldview.

But to preserve his “purity,” he had to obey.

You could say in bed Qin Jiang had always been afraid of the Young Mistress!

She was too crazy!!

Any man would have to cry out that he couldn’t take it!!
