Chapter 362 Falling from the Altar
In order to promote her reputation as a beautiful painter, Zhao Yue often posted her photos online.
Although she doesn't have Shen Lan's top-notch beauty, her looks are also above average in the entertainment industry, and she has a unique temperament. After a round of marketing, she has won a lot of praise.
Netizens call her the goddess of the art circle because she has the Xiao family's protection. Old Madam Xiao gives her some precious jewelry, clothes and bags from time to time. Zhao Yue has shown off her wealth intentionally or unintentionally several times. There are also rumors on the Internet that she is the daughter of a certain family.
Zhao Yue neither admitted nor denied this. Her calm and mysterious look made netizens believe it.
This time, Zhou Shiming revealed her life experience in front of the camera, which instantly sparked a heated discussion.
It is not known whether it was with the Xiao family's tacit approval, but several netizens, in the capacity of Xiao family servants, confirmed the fact that Zhao Yue was the housekeeper's daughter, and even released photos to prove the fact.
Coincidentally, the photo released was the one that Butler Zhao ordered the servants to take when Shen Lan received the flowers.
Butler Zhao was wearing a butler's uniform and standing respectfully beside Xiao Yun. Xiao Yun's face was specially processed and blurred, but Butler Zhao's face was clear.
In addition, there is a photo of Butler Zhao and Zhao Yue. The two have at least 60% similar facial features, which is simply solid evidence.
All of a sudden, ridicule of Zhao Yue flooded in online.
Zhao Yue was flipping through the comments online. Her fingers were shaking, her eyes were red, and her mind felt like it was exploding.
"Yueyue, Yueyue?"
When Liang Qiu's voice rang out on the phone, Zhao Yue suddenly woke up from her dream and held the phone tightly as if grasping at a life-saving straw.
"Liang Qiu, please help me delete those things online. A lot of people are scolding me, a lot of people..."
Her hoarse and desperate voice scared Liang Qiu.
"Yueyue, don't worry, I can help you with those things online..."
Before Liang Qiu finished speaking, a female voice came from the other end of the microphone.
Zhao Yue recognized the voice as Liang Qiu's mother's, and she mumbled something.
Liang Qiu said impatiently: "This is a matter between the two of us, don't worry about it."
There was another quarrel over the microphone.
Zhao Yue shrank her body, vaguely hearing her own name, as well as the words "liar" and "shameless". Her face was pale, and her body was like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind, withered and desolate.
Liang Qiu replied in a muffled voice. Zhao Yue heard the sound of running footsteps and a door closing, and then there was silence on the other end of the phone.
Zhao Yue bit her lip, embarrassment flashing in her eyes: "Did Auntie say something about me?"
"No, no, you heard it wrong. She was scolding the servants at home." In order to comfort her, Liang Qiu made up a few lies.
He meant well for Zhao Yue, but when Zhao Yue heard the word "servant", her expression became even uglier.
She tried hard not to lose her temper, and said softly and lostly, "I know you're just trying to coax me. Never mind, I won't bother you anymore. I don't want to make Auntie angry with you, and I don't want to burden you and cause unrest in your family."
Liang Qiu liked her understanding and immediately felt distressed: "What are you talking about? Your business is my business..."
As he spoke, he recalled Zhou Shiming's words in the video, and he still felt a little uncomfortable. He asked, "You, Yueyue, tell me the truth, is what Zhou Shiming said online true? Don't think too much. I don't dislike you. I'm saying that if he lies, I will teach him a lesson and make him pay the price."
He tried to make amends, but his words were too clumsy. Zhao Yue knew that Liang Qiu was bothered by this matter as soon as she heard it.
Men are like this. They can have a life of luxury and debauchery outside, but they cannot tolerate a woman having an affair.
Liang Qiu is a little different. He is a playboy, incompetent, bad-tempered, and spoiled. He has no big problem with women and has average interest in them.
After falling in love with her in his teens, he followed her wholeheartedly, which was a commendable point.
Zhao Yue felt better when she thought about this.
Her eyes moved, her eyelashes drooping. "The ghostwriting thing is true, but the body transaction... that's completely false. The truth is that Zhou Shiming likes me, and in order to get closer to me, he offered to ghostwrite for me."
"At the time, I was under so much pressure that I couldn't paint, so I couldn't accept his proposal. Later, he threatened me with the ghostwriting issue and asked me to sleep with him. When I refused, he turned against me and slandered me online."
What Zhao Yue said was seven parts true and three parts false, and it was reasonable and logical, so Liang Qiu believed it immediately.
"I knew it. A girl as pure and chaste as you could never do such a thing!"
