After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity

Chapter 178: Chapter 178: Hitting Chu Jinghe’s Face Chapter 178: Chapter 178: Hitting Chu Jinghe’s Face Shen Yan learned from Shen Zheng that Qi Si had gone to Tibet. Once she returned home, she sent Qi Si a message.

Qi Si did not reply.

She had been there before; some sections of that place had no signal at all.

Thinking about the dangers there, Shen Yan couldn’t help but feel worried about his safety.

Qi Si’s trip to Tibet also proved that Chi Boyuan was exactly as she had suspected.

Until the next day, Shen Yan still had not received a response from Qi Si. Shen Yan returned to school, still preoccupied with this matter.

“Shen Yan, how many days are you back in school this time? We’ve organized a spring outing on our own, want to join?” Lin Shuangxu ran up to match Shen Yan’s pace and extended the invitation.

Shen Yan said, “I won’t join you, I still have some things to take care of.”

The uncertainty about Qi Si’s situation left her feeling uneasy.

At this time, she had no desire to go on a spring outing with them.

Lin Shuangxu, smiling, hooked Shen Yan’s arm, “It’s just one day, come with us. Whenever you are free, we’ll go on that day, how about it?”

“My schedule is uncertain,” she could only stay in the campus area for a week before she had to join the group.

Lin Shuangxu couldn’t hide her disappointment, “Is it because of the incident with Qiao Zhilan last time?”

“It’s not,” if Lin Shuangxu hadn’t mentioned it, Shen Yan would have forgotten about that.

“Just consider it as keeping me company. It’s a bit embarrassing for me to go alone as a girl. I’d feel more at ease with you there,” Lin Shuangxu gently shook Shen Yan’s hand.

Shen Yan shook her head, “I really have something to handle, maybe next time.”

Shen Yan was somewhat tempted, but the unknown situation with Qi Si might affect her mood.

It would be better to stay behind, rather than going and having her low spirits affect everyone else’s mood.

Seeing that Shen Yan truly had matters to attend to, Lin Shuangxu had to let it go.

“Alright then, you can’t refuse next time,” Lin Shuangxu really enjoyed spending time with Shen Yan. Although she seemed a bit cold, she was comfortable to be around.

Much better than those girls with hidden agendas.

*

After a whole day, Shen Yan still hadn’t received a reply from Qi Si, and she furrowed her brows.

She should have kept his assistant’s phone number.

This way she wouldn’t have to look for someone in just one direction.

Driving to Juhai Pavilion, Shen Yan still sent a message to Chi Boyuan.

She received no response from him either.

Thus, she arrived at Juhai Pavilion with a slightly heavy heart.

As soon as she parked the car, she heard Qin Dingyue’s voice from behind her, “Yanyan!”

Qin Dingyue, smiling, quickly walked over.

Shen Yan glanced at the time, “You haven’t gone in?”

“I just arrived here too, and thought you’d be here soon, so I was waiting. Oh? Isn’t that Mu Jincheng with them…” Qin Dingyue’s peripheral vision caught a man and a woman nearby, she took a longer look, and under the bright light, their figures were clearly revealed.

There were two or three more figures behind the man and woman, both men and women.

They were heading this way, and with the lights so bright on both sides, they saw each other from some distance, making it impossible to avoid.

Shen Yan closed the car door, locked it, and looked away from them, “Let’s go.”

“Oh!” Qin Dingyue realized and quickly pulled Shen Yan to leave.

“Shen Yan, Qin Dingyue, it’s you guys! What a coincidence,” Chu Jinghe called out to them cheerfully from behind.

Qin Dingyue glanced at Shen Yan and mouthed: What should we do?

Shen Yan had no intention of dealing.

“Shen Yan.”

Chu Jinghe quickened his pace and blocked their path.

Chu Jinghe smiled as she sized up the two of them, “Shen Yan, didn’t you join a drama crew? How come you have time to meet Qin Dingyue here?”

Could it be that the drama crew changed the lead actress?

But there had been no news about it.

“Can’t Yanyan and I meet here?” Qin Dingyue asked with innocent eyes.

“Of course not,” Chu Jinghe smiled, turned around, and then turned back, saying, “Shen Yan, you should know that this place is owned by the Mu Family, right?”

That meant Shen Yan was here hoping for a chance encounter with Mu Jincheng.

Shen Yan glanced indifferently at Mu Jincheng, who had just arrived, “Doesn’t the Mu Family do business with me?”

“We’ve known each other before; you could greet us when you come in to make a purchase, and we could give you a discount,” Chu Jinghe moved closer to Mu Jincheng, pretending to be the lady of the house.

As soon as Mu Jincheng appeared, his gaze fell on Shen Yan.

Qin Dingyue looked puzzled at Chu Jinghe and asked Mu Jincheng, “Teacher Mu and Mr. Chu, are you married?”

Chu Jinghe hesitated, then replied, “No.”

“I was scared to death, thinking that you two had secretly married,” Qin Dingyue looked at Chu Jinghe and laughed, “Because Mr. Chu acts so much like the lady of the house, I couldn’t help but ask.”

Chu Jinghe’s smile immediately vanished.

“Pfft!”

A beautiful young woman behind them let out an unapologetic laugh, her dress and demeanor clearly that of the Mu Family’s daughter.

“I’m not the lady of the Mu Family, but since you’re a friend of the future sister-in-law, we can give you a 50% discount. Brother, what do you say?”

Mu Yanyan, with her tall figure, stepped forward and looked Qin Dingyue up and down with a smiling, bright-eyed, “I know you, Qin Dingyue! I really enjoy the TV dramas you’ve been in! And you, Shen Yan, I’ve been following ‘Stratagem Sage’ that’s currently airing. Your acting is even better than the lead actress; the netizens all love you!”

“Thank you!” Shen Yan couldn’t help but size up this young woman.

Chu Jinghe’s smile completely stiffened.

And she looked quite uncomfortable.

Mu Yanyan was Mu Jincheng’s sister; praising Shen Yan in front of her brother’s girlfriend was like a slap in her face.

Chu Jinghe grasped Mu Jincheng’s hand and squeezed it slightly, signaling him to speak up for her, but Mu Jincheng was like a dead man, not responding at all.

Chu Jinghe felt quite embarrassed.

“Wow! You really have good taste! Yanyan is really amazing; have you watched that survival reality show? If you’ve seen it, you’d definitely fall in love with Yanyan!” Qin Dingyue, as if she had found a kindred spirit, her eyes shining, leaned closer to Mu Yanyan.

Mu Yanyan was stunned by Qin Dingyue’s forthright demeanor, then laughed, “I have been watching it; I’ve seen all the shows my brother’s been on. To be honest, I’m now a Fireworks fan too!”

Chu Jinghe, hearing this, looked even more upset.

She could hardly squeeze out a smile.

Qin Dingyue, more energized, grabbed Mu Yanyan’s arm and asked for her WeChat, the two excitedly whispering together.

Shen Yan: “…”

It seemed they were discussing her.

Praising her so energetically in front of her made her feel embarrassed.

“You’re Yanyan, right?”

A middle-aged couple approached from behind; the noblewoman greeted Shen Yan with a friendly, smiling face.

Seeing the couple’s appearance, Shen Yan guessed they must be Mu Jincheng’s parents.

Father Mu wasn’t very austere, but he wasn’t easy to get along with either; he made eye contact with Shen Yan and nodded slightly.

Shen Yan didn’t see any disdain or contempt in their eyes.

The noblewoman, seeing Shen Yan, her eyes brightened as if she were pleased to meet Shen Yan.

Shen Yan nodded to the couple, “Uncle, Aunt.”

“Oh my! At last, we see you in person! You have no idea how much our family adores you, Yanyan. I can call you that, right?” Mu Jincheng’s mother approached, smiling, and reached out to shake Shen Yan’s hand, but Shen Yan hesitated and pulled away.

The noblewoman didn’t mind and continued smiling as she sized up Shen Yan.

Seeing the Mu Family’s warm attitude towards Shen Yan, Chu Jinghe’s face turned pale.

Thinking back to her first visit to the Mu Family, when she had been scrutinized with such critical eyes, she felt so aggrieved she wanted to cry.
