Chapter 1770: Tearing Off the Mask

~8 min read 1,445 words

"The three people you were looking for are actually Sheng Zihan's cousins; you were too easily deceived."

"Cousins?"

Wang Qing widened her beautiful eyes in astonishment; she was shocked by this claim!

"Is Jian Tao also... a cousin?"

"That's right, the Jian Family triplets are all girls. It's something the whole world knows, only you didn't."

Huo Zhenteng rubbed his temples. He now understood why his sister was so beautiful yet never happy in her life—it was because she only grew a pretty face and not a brain.

And his niece had perfectly inherited his sister's "excellent" genes, being just as stupid as her—no, even worse.

Prompted by her uncle, she remembered; such a possibility really did exist.

Sometimes she could tell that Jian Tao's way of speaking was different from a boy's, and he didn't have an Adam's apple either...

Now she understood everything: the three Jian sisters and Sheng Zihan had teamed up to set a trap for her!

Wang Qing was furious; she went to settle the score with Sheng Zihan!

She cornered Zihan at school, and Zihan asked coldly, "What are you still coming to find me for?"

"Sheng Zihan, you're something else. To break up with me, you really resorted to such low-down tactics. You used the triplets to set me up and force me to break up..."

Zihan corrected her: "It wasn't me forcing you to break up; it was you thinking you'd climbed a high branch and wanting to break up with me."

"But you used disgraceful methods."

"Heh..."

Zihan didn't want to waste any more breath on her. He tossed out a video and a few photos, giving Wang Qing an ultimatum: "If you pester me again, I'll put these things on the internet, and you can forget about working in the entertainment industry."

After looking at them, Wang Qing was dumbfounded.

The photos were all of her sitting in luxury cars and eating at high-end restaurants.

The video was a scene of Jian Tao "proposing."

But in everything, Jian Tao's face was pixelated, and there was a date in the bottom left corner of the photos. If this evidence were uploaded to the internet, the fact that she was two-timing would be exposed.

Wang Qing was annoyed: "These are all fake, they don't count," and as she said this, she tore the photos to shreds.

Zihan's eyes were icy: "Go ahead and tear them; I have plenty more on my phone." Wang Qing reflexively lunged over to grab the phone.

The phone was snatched away, but she couldn't open it.

The phone had a passcode, and she didn't have it.

"Sheng Zihan, there must be other secrets on your phone. You're still thinking about Tian Yuanyuan, aren't you?"

Knowing she was in the wrong, she started to act unreasonably.

Zihan admitted it frankly: "That's right, I am thinking about her. She is a thousand times, ten thousand times better than you. I must have been blinded by greed to have ever dated a woman like you."

"Since everything is in the past, you should go. From now on, we go our separate ways, and there will be no more involvement between us."

Wang Qing could no longer see a trace of warmth in Sheng Zihan's eyes.

She knew everything was over; he would no longer be swayed by her tears or threats of suicide.

So she made another foolish move: "Breaking up is fine, but it won't be that easy. You have to pay me a 'youth compensation fee'."

Wang Qing wanted money.

She couldn't be like that fool Tian Yuanyuan, wasting her youth on him and getting nothing in return.

"Youth compensation fee? Are you serious?"

Zihan had originally thought Wang Qing was a little different from those vain women, but now he saw they were all exactly the same, with no difference at all.

When they needed something, they were gentle and sweet; once the mask was torn off, they immediately revealed their true selves, ugly and unbearable.

"Of course. I've been dating you for so long and haven't gotten any benefits; my youth cannot be wasted for nothing."

You want to settle accounts, right?

Fine, settling accounts was Zihan's specialty.

He asked: "Then what about my youth? My efforts shouldn't be wasted for nothing either."

"What efforts did you make?"

Thinking of this, Wang Qing was incensed: "You just took me to a snack shop for a few meals; you have the nerve to bring that up?"

"I dated you for a month; you should pay me ten million in compensation. That's a bargain for you," she demanded greedily.

Zihan said: "You're just a minor celebrity. Your appearance fee is 3,000 to 5,000 at most, and that's calculated by the day. We only spent an hour eating a meal; a meal costs 500, so even for eight or ten meals, that's only 5,000 yuan."

"You ask for ten million right off the bat? You really have the nerve."

He wrote a check for 5,000 and handed it to Wang Qing: "This is all you get, take it or leave it."

"Hmph!"

Wang Qing didn't think much of this small amount of money. She took the check and tore it to pieces, mocking: "Forget it, Eldest Young Master Zihan. Keep this money to go to the snack shop; it's enough for you to eat for two or three months. This amount is only enough to send away a beggar."

"If you don't want it, then forget it."

She didn't want it, and Zihan happened to not want to give it; he felt a pang of pain spending even a penny on a woman like this.

But Wang Qing was just complaining that the money was too little, not that she didn't want it. She pestered him endlessly, threatening that they couldn't break up if he didn't pay the breakup fee.

If she were truly pushed to the edge, she would spread the word online that Sheng Zihan was stingy and cheap. The one with nothing to lose doesn't fear the one with shoes on; let's see who it affects more.

Sheng Zihan hadn't wanted to make things too ugly; even if they broke up, he wanted a peaceful separation. But Wang Qing's behavior was too unsightly, so he didn't want to show any mercy either.

"Fine, go ahead and make a scene. The police record from when you had people lock Yuanyuan in a dark room still exists, and the time I risked my life in Country L to save you is still on the internet."

"Make as much of a scene as you want, add in your two-timing, and see who it affects more?"

Wang Qing's brain went "boom," and she remembered the past.

That's right, if it weren't for Sheng Zihan back then, she didn't know what she would be like now.

It hadn't been that long ago, yet she had actually forgotten all the kindness Sheng Zihan had shown her.

Whether it was a sudden pang of conscience or some other reason, Wang Qing agreed to a peaceful breakup, and from then on, the two would have no further entanglements.

Sheng Zihan finally regained his freedom, and to thank the triplets, he specially treated them to a meal, then taught them everything he had learned while helping out at the company during this period without holding anything back.

Zihan taught without reservation, and the triplets learned with great interest, even managing to draw inferences about other cases, quickly applying them to the company's actual business, which made Jian Yining and his wife beam with joy.

Their daughter was truly capable; girls were even more outstanding than boys, and the regret of having only a daughter and no son for all these years was gone.

Zihan's love life entered a dormant period; he was very well-behaved during this time, focusing his entire mind on the company aside from his studies.

His parents were also happy to see him as he was now.

When he was dating Wang Qing, Sheng Hanyu wanted to interfere, but Shi Youxuan told him there was no need to worry for the time being and to wait a few months to see.

As it turned out, it didn't even take a few months before she "retreated in the face of difficulties."

Without them having to take action, the matter was resolved, and Sheng Hanyu even remarked with emotion: "This Wang Qing cannot compare to her uncle; if she had even half of Huo Zhenteng's ability, our family would have been in big trouble."
