Chapter 71 - 71 Beat Him At His Own Game
“Miss Shen, what earth-shattering thing have you done now?” Cheng Huo smiled and blocked her. He tried to remove her hat, but the woman stepped back in time to avoid his hand.
“Sir, you’ve got the wrong person,” The woman said calmly in a low voice.
“I’m not wrong. Miss Shen, I’ve said it before. My nose is very sharp and I can smell your scent.” Cheng Huo licked his lips evilly and said flippantly, “But don’t worry, Miss Shen. I won’t tell anyone. I’m here to help you clean up the aftermath.”
“Help me?” Shen Yin did not try to hide her identity anymore. Since he had already seen through her disguise, she might as well admit it. If she continued to act coyly, it would seem as if she had no sense of propriety.
As expected, Cheng Huo pursed his lips and smiled. A sly look flashed across his eyes. “Let’s go to the changing room. You’ll be easily caught if you’re dressed like that.”
Shen Yin hesitated as she looked at his vanishing figure. She walked to the changing room. Sure enough, there was a cloth bag on the dressing table. Inside was a set of casual clothes that Cheng Huo had prepared for her.
At the banquet, Lian’e kept looking at her watch. The time that she had Yun Shan had agreed on had arrived, but that woman had not kept to the plan to inform Lian’e when she brought her associate over. Now Lian’e was feeling extremely anxious.
“Little ‘E, what’s the matter? Has there been a change of plans?” Fu Xiao whispered into her ear.
Lian’e frowned. Her patience vanished. “I don’t know what that woman is up to. Forget it. I’ll bring some people over first. If the plan has succeeded, we won’t lose out, and if the plan has failed, it won’t affect us either.”
Fu Xiao nodded in agreement. Lian’e quickly and politely led a few of her close friends to the bathroom.
She felt uneasy and subconsciously quickened her pace. As she approached the bathroom, she heard lewd panting coming from within. The women with her immediately gasped in surprise. Some busybodies even took out their cell phones to record what would happen next.
Lian’e could not wait for them to see Shen Yin embarrass herself, but she still pretended to look worried. “Why don’t I summon someone first? If we go in like that, we might see something we ought not to see.”
“Oh, what are you afraid of? This is big news! We might be able to use it as leverage in the future! If you won’t go in, I will!” A matron with her hair in a bun rushed impatiently into the bathroom, holding her phone. She kicked open the innermost door and started recording the couple.
“This dress… I think it’s the woman who saved your father!” The matron gestured at Lian’e as she recorded the scene. The woman’s dress was pulled down to her ankles, and she was naked and lying entwined with a rough-looking man.
The two of them had misty eyes and did not seem to notice the women’s arrival. They were still entwined, as if they were possessed.
Lian’e reacted swiftly and called Fu Xiao, who quickly brought more guests over to watch the scene.
The couple finally stopped moving. The man looked at the crowd in front of him in a daze. After a while, he seemed to regain his wits. He shouted and covered his face. He pushed the woman, who was covered in bruises, out of the cubicle so that she shielded him.
The woman’s long hair dangled messily in front of her face, preventing anyone from seeing her features clearly, but everyone recognized the dress by her feet.
Everyone looked excited when they realized that the woman had been doing such things in the toilet behind President Lian’s back.
“This, this can’t be Miss Shen, right?! How could she behave like that?! Today is President Lian’s birthday banquet!” The rich matron put away her cell phone in satisfaction and began to incite the crowd.
Lian’e was pleased that the woman had started it first. If she was the one to say such things, someone might begin to smell a rat and Lian Jing might also suspect her. However, if someone else said it, it was a completely different matter. She would not be involved at all.
“No way. Miss Shen doesn’t seem like someone who would do such a thing.” Lian’e pretended to cover her mouth in shock, but her eyes swept over the tall figure that was walking over.
“What’s going on?” Zhong Xin frowned and looked inside in confusion. He immediately saw the naked woman, then his frantic eyes shifted to the dress beside the woman, and his heart skipped a beat.
That… was that the dress that President Lian had personally given Miss Shen?!
