After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity

Chapter 169: Chapter 169: Almost Officially Announced Chapter 169: Chapter 169: Almost Officially Announced A soft body carrying the fragrance of alcohol pressed closely against him, causing Qi Si’s body to stiffen from the tingling sensation!

Due to the collision, his broad hand unintentionally landed on her lower back.

Even through the fabric, he could distinctly feel the delicate softness of her waistline!

There was even a slight electric current running through his palm.

Shen Yan was startled for a moment and then snapped back to reality.

She placed her hands on his chest and pushed, stepping back a few paces, her cheeks somewhat flushed—whether from the alcohol or something else, her eyes shimmering, her features as soft and beautiful as a painting, momentarily more intoxicating than the wine itself!

Shen Yan was completely unaware of how charming she appeared at the moment and even smiled at Qi Si.

That smile bloomed like a budding red plum suddenly in full blossom!

Qi Si suddenly felt a tightness in his throat and his heartbeat became slightly irregular. He raised his hand unconsciously, tugging at the overly tight buttons of his shirt, his gaze towards Shen Yan as deep and fierce as a wild beast.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Qi, I’ve had a bit too much to drink,” Shen Yan’s gaze fell on his expensive leather shoes, marked by her stepping, her eyebrows furrowed, a flash of apology in her eyes.

“It’s okay,” Qi Si’s voice was somewhat hoarse, looking at her still slightly shaky figure, he instinctively stepped forward twice, “Can you stand steady?”

“Yes,” Shen Yan took two steps forward, just sidestepping his figure blocking in front.

Qi Si withdrew his half-raised hand, following her inside.

His deep gaze unconsciously fell on her, constantly attentive to her movements.

Shen Yan’s steps were steady, apparently having sobered up outside.

In the elevator.

The smell of alcohol was still there,

but not as strong as before.

Qi Si glanced sideways, watching the person obediently standing next to him, his eyes softening.

Shen Yan just looked down at her feet, like a child who has done something wrong, making one unable to resist ruffling her hair.

Qi Si moved his fingers but restrained himself.

“Is there no shooting tomorrow?”

As soon as the words left his mouth, Qi Si realized that he did not know when he had started seeking topics to discuss with Shen Yan.

Shen Yan didn’t lift her head, “There is.”

Thinking of her appearance outside, Qi Si said softly, “Do you realize that you are a public figure?”

“I know,” Shen Yan’s voice was a bit muffled, “Suddenly wanted to drink, it’s been a very long time since I last touched alcohol.”

Hearing her use the phrase “a very long time,” Qi Si paused, “The specialty from F country I gave you last time, why did you put it away.”

He really did not know that Shen Yan had a penchant for alcohol.

Shen Yan pursed her lips, remaining silent.

She wasn’t after the alcohol, and that wasn’t really a specialty.

Seeing her silence, Qi Si also did not continue the conversation.

The elevator dinged open.

Shen Yan walked out silently, reaching her room door, took out the card to unlock it and then suddenly turned back to look at Qi Si standing behind her: “Mr. Qi, you are kind of dull.”

Qi Si’s gaze swiftly fell on her face.

Shen Yan entered the room, closing the door.

Qi Si stood in place, wondering why she suddenly made that remark.

Dull?

That was just the kind of person he was.

He was not the slick-tongued, unrestrained sort, nor did he aspire to be such a person.

So, in Shen Yan’s mind, he was a boring person?

Qi Si never cared about outsiders’ opinions of him, not even his family.

He stood in place for a while, then turned and entered his own room.

*

Shen Yan slept until daylight, and upon sitting up, the first thing that popped into her mind was the scene from last night.

“Bang bang!”

The door was knocked loudly.

Shen Yan quickly got up to get dressed and upon opening the door, she saw Liu Su’s face shift from excitement to worry, “Yanyan, something bad has happened.”

“…”

Why did she detect excitement in his tone?

“Look,” Liu Su thrust his phone in front of Shen Yan.

Immediately visible was an enlarged, blurry photo of a man holding a woman.

Wasn’t this the scene from last night when she had accidentally fallen into Qi Si’s arms?

“The internet is saying you met with a man last night,” Liu Su said anxiously, “Though we know it’s Mr. Qi, the netizens don’t. They are wildly speculating, even suggesting it’s Li Yanbai. What Li Yanbai, does Li Yanbai have Mr. Qi’s height or his charm?”

Shen Yan stared at Liu Su, having seen through everything.

Liu Su was still acting.

“Aren’t you afraid Mr. Qi will fire you with this stunt, Uncle Liu?” Shen Yan zoomed out the photo and glimpsed the hashtag, her lips twitching uncontrollably.

#Actress Shen Yan Plunges into Li Yanbai’s Embrace# The hashtag was so blatant, she really suspected it was Liu Su’s doing.

“The Black Shadow” started shooting without any public announcement, and Director Chen had strictly warned the insiders.

She scrolled but saw no mention of “Black Shadow.”

She became even more suspicious.

Why would the internet suspect Li Yanbai of all people?

Shen Yan looked at the photo again and handed the phone back to Liu Su, “Uncle Liu, you explain it to Mr. Qi.”

Although blurry and capturing only the back, given Qi Si’s height, finding a matching actor among those she’d met was impossible.

Li Yanbai was three or four centimeters shorter than Qi Si, and Li Yanbai’s fans weren’t blind; they could tell it wasn’t him.

Liu Su: “…Shouldn’t you be the one explaining this?”

How did it become about him? It’s not his scandal.

Shen Yan gave him a sidelong look, a mixture of frustration and exasperation, “Uncle Liu, the direction you and Xiao Zhao left in last night was right where the photo was taken, wasn’t it?”

Liu Su: “…”

“Better get it sorted out quickly,” Shen Yan walked out first, “I’m heading to the set with Xiao Zhao first, Uncle Liu, you’d better have a good talk with Mr. Qi.”

Liu Su: “Yanyan, aren’t you going to save me?”

Shen Yan, with a flick of her hand, sauntered into the elevator.

“Click,” the door behind him opened.

A tall and imposing figure stood behind him, his gaze hauntingly fixed on Liu Su.

Liu Su stiffly turned around, “Sir, Mr. Qi…”

“Uncle Liu,” Qi Si’s voice was so chilling it could freeze over,

Liu Su shuddered, “Sir, listen to my excuse… no, my explanation. It was Yanyan who asked me to take that photo, she wanted to surprise you…”

As Qi Si’s gaze grew colder, Liu Su found himself at a loss for words.

“Clean this up,” Qi Si commanded icily before closing the door.

He seemed unable to bear the sight of Liu Su any longer.

Liu Su was heartbroken.

Qi Si held his phone, fingertip hovering over the photo before impulsively saving it.

As soon as he saved it, he tossed his phone aside.

He tugged irritably at his collar button.

Liu Su acted swiftly, deleting the trending hashtag within minutes and issued a baseless warning.

He also mentioned pursuing legal action against the photo uploader and the rumor spreader.

As Liu Su handled the situation, he regretted internally, it was such a pity.

They were so close to making an official announcement!

Before the Fireworks fans and Li Yanbai’s fans could even understand what was happening, the trending hashtag disappeared.

Xinyu directly issued the warning.

The disappearance was so abrupt that no one had time to react.

[Is it really Yanyan? I didn’t even have time to screenshot it, did anyone get it, share it quick!]

[I have it, I have it!! Everyone, keep your eyes wide open, scrutinize it! We can’t let even the slightest clue slip through. Damn it, dare to use a photo to slander Yanyan, they’re asking for trouble!]

[Stop chatting, share it quickly!]
