2326 Twins
The first time he met Qiao Weiyang, she was a cold and expressionless woman. Later, the ice around her gradually melted. Now, she liked to talk and smile. She was so delicate that Su Zhuoqian wanted to place her directly in his heart and embed her into his bones and blood.
Xiao Bao and Jingyun also raised their hands. “We miss Mommy!”
Su Zhuoqian took out his phone and clicked on Qiao Weiyang’s WeChat profile picture. “Su Zhuoqian here also misses Qiao Weiyang.”
…
The next morning, Qiao Weiyang’s phone rang. She glanced at it and saw that it was Lin Heng.
She had blocked him a long time ago, but because she had to ask him for the folder that Qiao Jierou had copied, she had unblocked him. She had not blocked him for the time being.
She knew Qiao Jierou’s intentions. She sneered and picked up the call.
“Weiyang, there’s an event organized by the organizers here. Come and participate. If you don’t participate in any activities, it might be unfavorable to the competition.”
Lin Heng sounded concerned, but Qiao Weiyang knew that this was just Qiao Jierou’s trick.
If they didn’t have ulterior motives, why would they care about her so much?
Qiao Jierou couldn’t wait to cling to her. Of course, she had to use everything she could to get close to her.
“Okay, I’ll be there soon,” Qiao Weiyang said.
Anyway, she was going to completely expose Qiao Jierou’s true colors this time. Why would she still be afraid of their invitation?
After Lin Heng put down the phone, he said to Qiao Jierou, “I’ve already called Weiyang. She said she’ll be here soon. But why haven’t I heard of this activity before?”
“I also heard it from Hu Haitian. She seemed to have heard it from other contestants. We don’t speak the same language, so there are indeed some things that we won’t know. I was just thinking that if something is announced at this event and my sister doesn’t know, won’t she be at a disadvantage? That’s why I quickly asked you to inform her.”
Lin Heng looked downstairs and realized that there were indeed many people gathered at the entrance of the hotel. They were holding banners and shouting slogans. He didn’t know what kind of event it was, but it looked very lively.
“Everyone seems to be here,” Lin Heng said. “Why don’t we go down too?”
The smile on Qiao Jierou’s face was very gentle. “Yes, I’ll leave after putting on some lipstick.”
When Qiao Weiyang arrived at the event location, she glanced at the banners raised by these people. Her brows immediately darkened. After listening carefully to the slogans they shouted, it made her tremble in fear.
Tao Huan followed beside her. Although she could not understand what they were saying, she could see the anger on their faces.
“Sister Weiyang, what are these people doing here? There seem to be many unfamiliar faces.”
Tao Huan was very good at recognizing faces. She could tell at a glance that many of them were not participants or staff of this competition.
“It’s okay. Get in the car and wait for me,” Qiao Weiyang said calmly.
However, Tao Huan still felt that this was a serious matter. “No, I want to stay by your side! I’m your assistant. No matter what happens, I have to face all the problems with you.”
“Be good and go back to the car. Otherwise, I’ll have to take care of you later.”
Tao Huan had no choice but to return to the car first. The crowd was already surging toward Qiao Weiyang.
“That’s her! Surround her!”
“She’s the one who abused the cat. The video was very clear!”
“This is too much. How could you abuse an animal? Such a person should have a taste of being abused!”
“Apologize! Apologize!”
“How can such a person participate in the competition? If she really participates in the competition and gets a ranking, I’ll blacklist this competition for life!”
“Eliminate her from the competition if you want to appease everyone’s anger!”
On the sign these people were holding were photos of stray cats and dogs. They read, ‘Protect the animals and protect the mutual friends of mankind.’
Everyone was furious. Compared to last night, when the group of people found out that Qiao Weiyang had ‘plagiarized,’ the crowd this time looked even more indignant and determined.
Qiao Weiyang was quickly surrounded in the crowd. Fortunately, there were bodyguards protecting her in the dark.
But anger manifested itself in many ways, and verbal damage was inevitable.
When Lin Heng went downstairs, he happened to see this scene.
He was very surprised. “What’s going on now?”
Qiao Jierou also looked surprised. “I don’t know. Looking at those pictures and banners, did Sister do something to anger everyone again?”
“Stay here and don’t wander around. I’ll go over and help,” Lin Heng immediately said.
“Brother Heng.” Qiao Jierou pulled him back. “There are too many people over there. I’m afraid that you’ll be hurt. I’m also afraid of being alone here.”
“Don’t be afraid. I’ll be back soon.”
“I’ll go with you to protect my sister! Otherwise, I’ll feel bad if anything happens to her.”
“No, you stay right here.”
“But I don’t want to see anything happen to you. There are too many people there, and you don’t speak the language. If anything happens to you, what will happen to me?”
Lin Heng could not reach Qiao Weiyang at all, and those people continued to surround her. Qiao Weiyang was squeezed in the crowd. Although she was protected and not hurt, she still looked a little embarrassed.
Qiao Jierou’s interpreter quickly arrived.
Lin Heng immediately asked, “What exactly happened?”
“President Lin, I asked around just now. It turns out that someone posted a video of Qiao Weiyang abusing a cat last night. This matter has been spreading like wildfire. However, because no one knew where Qiao Weiyang stayed and they don’t quite understand her identity, they’ve only been denouncing her on the internet. Things only became this serious early this morning.”
Qiao Jierou pretended to be surprised. “That really happened? Where’s the video?”
The interpreter took out his phone, and Lin Heng snatched it over. In the video, Qiao Weiyang was breaking the cat’s leg. The cat let out a tragic and strange cry.
Most importantly, in the video, Qiao Weiyang looked calm and even had a faint smile on her face. This strong visual and auditory evidence made people shudder.
Even Lin Heng felt a chill down his spine. When did Qiao Weiyang become like this?
Qiao Jierou screamed and covered her eyes in fear.
Lin Heng quickly reached out to pat her and comfort her.
Qiao Jierou’s voice trembled. “How could this happen? Is she under too much pressure?”
The interpreter said angrily, “I really couldn’t tell she was such a person. She’s so beautiful, but she has such a vicious heart. It’s too surprising! What’s wrong with a stray cat? Why does she have to abuse animals? This kind of woman deserves to be ganged up on.”
