Green Tea Goes Viral After Being Forced to Tell the Truth

His wife came from a powerful family, with her father and brother being high-ranking officials in Beijing. As long as his wife was willing to forgive him, he would never have to worry about his future.

Of course, Liu Mei, who was the third party in his marriage with his wife… would inevitably be sacrificed.

Song Qi could only use sweet words to pacify her for now, so she wouldn’t do anything foolish, and then he quickly hung up the phone.

Liu Mei listened to the busy tone from the phone and collapsed to the ground, feeling completely powerless. She could tell that Song Qi was just placating her, and she could even foresee her dark future.

Regret and pain engulfed her like tidal waves. She deeply regretted giving herself to Song Qi to take a shortcut, and she regretted… provoking Ning Chuchu actively.

But she had walked this path step by step, and there was no medicine for regret in the world.

At this moment, Xie Jinqiu, whom Song Qi considered as one of his saviors, was listening to the assistant’s report on this matter.

“…That’s how things are,” the male assistant with gold-rimmed glasses reported in a serious tone, “Director Song wants you to step in and suppress the situation to ensure the smooth filming of Endless Immortal Journey. Mr. Xie, what do you think?”

Beside him, a young man in a tailored suit had his head down, reviewing documents.

He had a tall slender figure, broad shoulders, and an exquisitely handsome face as if crafted by the gods. His pair of slender and deep eyes exuded an air of indifference. He was oozing an aura of arrogance and pride.

He flipped through the documents slowly with his slender fingers with well-defined knuckles. After a while, he slightly opened his thin lips, and his clear and magnetic voice sounded, cold and distant, “Don’t bother me with these trivial matters in the future.”

Assistant: “…”

The male assistant awkwardly adjusted his glasses. He had initially wanted to apologize and then quietly leave the president’s office. However, when he thought of the other key figure in this matter, he hesitated.

Taking a deep breath, the male assistant gathered his courage and said, “Mr. Xie, your fiancee, Miss Ning Chuchu, was the one who exposed Director Song Qi. But hardly anyone knows about your relationship with Miss Ning, so it seems that Song Qi has gathered a group of people to suppress her. Do you have any instructions on this matter?”

The male assistant didn’t intend to help Ning Chuchu. He was just fulfilling his duty by reporting the full situation to Mr. Xie. Besides, he was always cautious and diplomatic in his actions. Although it seemed that Mr. Xie didn’t like his fiancee at the moment, their status was still there, and who could predict what would happen in the future?

So, after some internal struggle, the male assistant decided to boldly emphasize this matter to Mr. Xie.

Of course, he believed that with Mr. Xie’s character, even if he knew about his fiancee’s involvement in this matter, he wouldn’t pay much attention to it.

However, after hearing about this, Xie Jinqiu paused his hand movement.

“Ning Chuchu?” Xie Jinqiu frowned slightly and asked thoughtfully, “She publicly exposed Director Song Qi’s scandal during the live broadcast?”

The male assistant’s heart tightened, and he quickly mustered his courage to respond, “Yes, Miss Ning publicly claimed that Director Song Qi had an inappropriate relationship with the actress Liu Mei. Netizens praised Miss Ning for being brave and straightforward. However… Director Song has already taken action, and Miss Ning’s situation doesn’t look good.”

This assistant was quite savvy. He saw that his boss was unusually concerned about his fiancee, so he subtly indicated his stance—he stood on Ning Chuchu’s side as the future lady of the house.

Xie Jinqiu raised his hand to rub his forehead, narrowed his eyes in contemplation for a moment, and then suddenly said, “Go and investigate.”

Assistant: “Ah?”

Xie Jinqiu gave him a cold glance, and his oppressive gaze made the assistant shiver. Finally, his intelligence kicked back in, and he hurriedly asked, “Do you want me to investigate whether Director Song and Liu Mei’s affair is true?”

“Mm.” Xie Jinqiu continued to review the documents, not bothering to raise his head as he replied.

“Alright, Mr. Xie.” The assistant, before leaving, mustered his courage again and asked hesitantly, “After finding out the truth, what should we do about Miss Ning?”

He knew how dirty the entertainment industry could be, and he was almost certain that the affair between Director Song and Liu Mei was true. So he wanted to ask Mr. Xie beforehand—which side should he stand on after the results come out?

Should he protect Song Qi to secure his interests, or… protect his fiancée, whom he seemingly had no feelings for?

However, Xie Jinqiu didn’t show any intention of making an immediate decision. He only instructed, “Let me know the results, and we’ll decide then.”

Leaning against his hand, Xie Jinqiu had not slept for two days, and there was a hint of exhaustion on his face. His voice was slightly hoarse as he murmured, “She rarely speaks the truth, but… she wouldn’t dare to joke about something like this.”

Moreover, what Xie Jinqiu didn’t say was… he felt that publicly exposing a scandal during a live broadcast didn’t seem like something his composed and cautious fiancee would do.

Undeniably, he felt a hint of curiosity.

Ning Chuchu was unaware that her astonishing actions had caused even her cold and indifferent fiance to have unusual fluctuations in his heart.

After discussing with Sister Zhang how to crush Song Qi and Liu Mei, she went to bed early.

The next day, Ning Chuchu finally met her stepsister, Yun Yirou, in the Love Cabin.

“Remember to be alert and investigate what’s weird about her,” Ning Chuchu instructed the system.
