Chapter 342: If the Tiger Doesn't Show Its Might, Do You Take Me for a Sick Cat?

"What right do you have to hit someone?" Wang Bingbing covered her face.

In truth, her first reaction was to hit back, but seeing more and more people gathering, she lowered her hand.

Her public image had always been that of a gentle lady; hitting someone in the street like a shrew would ruin her persona, so she decided to use a soft approach to deflect the force, cementing Shi Youxuan's image as a "shrew" instead.

"Why I hit you, don't you have any idea in your heart?" Shi Youxuan radiated an imposing aura, looking haughty and arrogant.

"I don't know, I'm not even familiar with you. You lured me out by impersonating someone else, is it just to ruin my reputation?" Wang Bingbing accused her first, while also putting on a pitiful, delicate act.

If it were someone else, they might not have known how to deal with her act.

But Shi Youxuan was not someone else.

She had extensive experience dealing with such "white lotuses" and "green tea" types; she specialized in curing all kinds of defiance.

"You still have a reputation? Wang Bingbing, I warn you, don't you dare have designs on my daughter. Your daughter going missing truly has nothing to do with me. My daughter is just my daughter; if you don't believe it, we can go to the hospital for a paternity test..."

Wang Bingbing nearly fainted.

Why didn't this woman play by the rules?

She had assumed Shi Youxuan was looking for her because of Sheng Hanyu, after all, she had come using Sheng Hanyu's name.

It was nothing more than jealousy; if that were the case, she wouldn't be afraid in the slightest, and might even be secretly pleased.

She had already inquired: Shi Youxuan was Sheng Hanyu's ex-wife. If an ex-wife came to cause trouble for her, she only needed to use a few tricks, and Shi Youxuan would become the target of public criticism.

After all, her position was neither legitimate nor righteous.

Furthermore, Shi Youxuan had no evidence. Not only could she accuse Shi Youxuan of slander, but she could also use this incident to act weak in front of Sheng Hanyu and win his sympathy.

Men were more likely to be biased toward the weak; perhaps Shi Youxuan coming to make a scene would even help her!

In a flash, she had already thought through what she would say next and which direction to guide public opinion.

However, Shi Youxuan didn't mention Sheng Hanyu a single time.

Instead, she was spouting nonsense with a straight face.

"You, you're talking nonsense!"

Wang Bingbing's face turned crimson with anger, her lips trembling, unable to even speak clearly: "I, when did I have designs on your daughter? I don't even know who your daughter is... I don't have children either, I'm not even married, where would I get a child from?"

"Shi Youxuan, you're slandering me. Just wait for my Lüshi to come for you; I will absolutely not let this matter go."

Shi Youxuan's revelation that Wang Bingbing "had a child" caused the surrounding onlookers to boil over.

A pure, chaste maiden having a daughter out of wedlock?

Whose child was it?

Such a huge piece of gossip, it would be a waste not to consume it.

The crowd were just watching the spectacle, but the entertainment reporters were already preparing to post what just happened online.

Exclusive headline, earth-shattering gossip!

Whether it was true or false, they would break the news first.

Entertainment news was all about being "explosive"; whether it was true or not was actually unimportant.

"Don't film, don't film, you know you can't post this, right? That woman is a lunatic, are you her accomplices too?" The Security Guard finally reacted belatedly; this noblewoman was not Wang Bingbing's friend at all, but someone who had come specifically to pick a fight.

They split into several groups: one group blocked the reporters from leaving, one group shouted loudly to scare Shi Youxuan and prepare to drive her away, and another group ran to the production crew to report to the director.

"Everyone look, this is the gentle superstar Wang Bingbing. People outside all say she is approachable, but I think she's more like a bully..."

Shi Youxuan ran around the car, not letting the Security Guard catch her.

A wise person doesn't fight when the odds are against them; she was alone, and there were several security guards on the other side. If they caught her, it wouldn't be fun anymore.

"Wang Bingbing, you're lying. You know my daughter. The day before yesterday in Wuhai, my daughter was almost abducted by you..."

"Nonsense, I'm not short of money, why would I sell a child for profit? Suspecting me of being a human trafficker? You'd better go to a psychiatric hospital and check if there's something wrong with your nerves."

Wang Bingbing wasn't easy to bully either; as Shi Youxuan pressed step by step, she also began to counterattack.

Shi Youxuan: "You say you're not a human trafficker, then why did you rack your brains to get close to my daughter, and why did you contact her behind our backs as parents?"

If Wang Bingbing had been given enough time to think, she definitely wouldn't have said: "That didn't happen, I've never met your daughter."

Shi Youxuan was waiting for exactly those words.

"Never met her?" She suddenly raised her volume: "Fine, you say you've never met her, right?"

As she spoke, Shi Youxuan took a stack of developed photos out of her bag and distributed them to the crowd, especially the entertainment reporters—one for each!

"Everyone take a look, this is a photo of Wang Bingbing and my daughter on the plane two days ago. They chatted the whole way back then, and it's only been a few days and she's forgotten it completely. Truly, a noble person has a short memory..."

There was a date in the bottom right corner of the photo, and the airline's name was on it too. Whether it was true or false could be known with a little investigation; it couldn't be faked at all!

Shi Ran was a fan, and at the time, she had asked Shi Youxuan to take a photo of the two of them.

Wang Bingbing, hindered by Sheng Hanyu's presence, had agreed.

At the time, her attention was entirely on how to leave a good impression on Sheng Hanyu and how to make him like her; she had long forgotten such a small matter as a photo.

Now that she saw the photo, she remembered, but it was already too late.

As Shi Youxuan handed out photos to the reporters, the security guards stood outside watching. Wang Bingbing shouted at them in a fit of rage: "Are you all dead? Hurry up and get this person out of here."

The security guards woke up as if from a dream and hurried over to drive her away.

"Stop handing them out, leave now."

Shi Youxuan smiled slightly: "Alright, you're at a loss for words so you're starting to drive people away, right? Fine, everyone come with me, I have even bigger gossip to break..."

Shi Youxuan took the lead, and everyone followed behind her.

Wang Bingbing and the security guards were all dumbfounded.

"Can't let her leave, hurry and invite her back."

Wang Bingbing finally reacted and hurriedly told the security guards to go "invite" her back.

This woman dared to spout nonsense right in front of her; if she couldn't see or hear it, wouldn't it be whatever she wanted to say?

She wasn't afraid of anything else, but the key was that there were several entertainment reporters on the scene.

These people are best at making something out of nothing; if they were to leave together, there's no telling how many versions of rumors they would concoct.

The Security Guard ran up to Shi Youxuan and blocked her path: "Miss, please don't leave yet; our Miss Wang invites you to return."

"Invites me to return? Ha, is she feeling guilty and planning to bribe me with money, or does she want to kill me to silence me?" Shi Youxuan shouted loudly.

The Security Guard put on a fawning smile and bowed repeatedly: "Neither, Miss Wang just wants to invite you back."

Shi Youxuan was relentless: "Oh, so she's not even willing to use money to bribe me? I'm not going back; saving my life is more important."

She feigned a look of fear and walked toward the exit even faster, but after a few steps, she "remembered" her car was still parked at the main gate, so she turned back.

Wang Bingbing suppressed the anger in her heart, maintained her image, and walked forward with a smile...

This time, however, she acted as if she didn't see Wang Bingbing at all, walked right past her, opened the car door, and got in.

"Don't leave yet; it would be fine if you just listened to me say two things before you go."

Wang Bingbing blocked the front of the car.

Shi Youxuan did not get out of the car, she only rolled down the car window: "Speak."

"Let's talk alone." She lowered her voice.

But it was useless for just her to lower her voice; Shi Youxuan exaggeratedly raised her volume: "Talk alone? I wouldn't dare. I've already exposed such a big secret of yours; I'm afraid you'll kill me if we talk alone."
