After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity

Chapter 202: Chapter 202: Who is that man? Chapter 202: Chapter 202: Who is that man? Due to the situation with Qin Dingyue, Gu Ting was somewhat upset, although in Shen City, she hadn’t met with Shen Yan again.

Whenever Gu Ting thought about Qin Dingyue’s ideas regarding her daughter, she couldn’t bear it.

She worried that if she saw her daughter, she wouldn’t be able to stop herself from asking questions left and right, potentially revealing flaws and making it difficult for her daughter.

After all, Qin Dingyue was going to be moving in the same circles as her daughter and even doing a variety show together, where they would see each other often.

What if something strange like a scandal erupted between them? How would they ever resolve it?

Thus, it was better to keep the matter hidden as much as possible.

Yet just at this time, Qi Si suddenly arranged for her to come over for dinner at the couple’s home. Gu Ting made all sorts of excuses, but ultimately couldn’t resist and had to agree.

During her days in Shen City, Qi Si had also provided a car to follow her, just to make her moving around the city convenient.

The accommodations were also very properly arranged; one had to admit that Qi Si, as a son-in-law, was doing quite well.

As for not accompanying her personally, this was something Gu Ting was rather pleased with; Qi Si’s arrangements made her quite comfortable.

Previously, she used to find Qi Si cold and aloof, but now she saw him as someone who was considerate and attentive.

Mature and stable men are different after all. Had her daughter married a restless young man, life would definitely have been chaotic.

Lost in her thoughts, Gu Ting was driven by the chauffeur to the villa.

Standing at the front to welcome Gu Ting was Liu Su, who ran up with a smile and opened the car door for her: “Mrs. Shen! Welcome to our home! The master and Yanyan will be back shortly.”

Having alighted from the car, Gu Ting began to examine the villa, which was spacious and lushly planted, with a very clean and tidy courtyard.

The servants also seemed very proper; Qi Si had not hired any young and attractive ones, which was a relief.

“Qi Si went to pick up Yanyan?”

“The master went from the company on his way there, it’s on the route.”

“I seemed to remember that his company isn’t in the direction of Shencheng University?”

Liu Su smiled and said, “It’s just a turn away. The master often does this.”

Hearing this, Gu Ting felt relieved; Qi Si truly kept her daughter in his thoughts, and that was a good thing.

Thinking about how her daughter had treated Qi Si previously, she felt somewhat apologetic and didn’t dare fault him; moreover, she couldn’t find any fault.

“Qi Si is stable, more sensible than Yanyan.”

Liu Su laughed again, “The master is several years older than Yanyan, it’s only right that he’s more stable. Mrs. Shen, let’s go inside, dinner will be ready soon.”

Gu Ting followed Liu Su into the villa. Upon entering, she immediately felt the homey ambiance inside.

She looked around and saw the busy chef in the kitchen, then turned her head to look at the door leading to the backyard.

Liu Su, being very perceptive, led Gu Ting to the backyard, “Both the master and Yanyan are busy people, not fond of coming to the backyard, but the management here is timely, not inferior to the residences in Beijing.”

Gu Ting was quite pleased, “I’ll just sit here waiting for them, Lao Liu, don’t mind me. Go do what you need to.”

“I’m here to keep Mrs. Shen company and to relieve your boredom, I have nothing else to do.”

Today, Shen Yan did not drive herself; Qi Si had told her in advance that he would come to pick her up.

“Shen Yan, you didn’t drive today? Let me take you.”

Ji Yao and a few others came out together, not seeing Shen Yan head to the parking area, he blurted out.

Shen Yan pointed outside: “Thank you, but I have a ride coming.”

Even though Shen Yan tactfully declined, Ji Yao felt that as long as he persisted and tried harder, Shen Yan would surely notice him.

So he always seized every chance to get close to her.

Once Shen Yan knew his intentions, she naturally wouldn’t give him any possible chances.

“There are many who want to pursue Shen Yan, Ji Yao, making an effort isn’t a bad thing,” his friend comforted him.

Ji Yao pulled a stiff smile, not saying a word.

But his gaze continued to follow the figure walking ahead.

Just then, a low-key luxury car slid into view.

It stopped right next to Shen Yan, shaded by tree branches, with no lights on in the car, and from their angle, it was a bit distant.

But Ji Yao and the others could tell instantly that aside from the driver, there was another tall figure in the back seat.

Even from afar, they could feel the chill emanating from that figure.

Both the car and the person conveyed an ultimate sense of understated mystery.

Who is that man?

Ji Yao hazily outlined, subconsciously guessing.

The car moved away from his sight, and he was still dazed.

“There seemed to be someone else in the car; there were rumors online that Shen Yan got her fame today by clinging to a wealthy patron, but I don’t know if that’s true.”

“It shouldn’t be, the Shen Yan we know wouldn’t do such a thing.”

“What kind of place is the entertainment industry? Could one go far without someone backing them?”

Ji Yao suddenly turned around, staring at the talkative few.

They exchanged glances and shut up.

They were all classmates of Shen Yan and didn’t want to think in that direction.

“Has anyone at school been troubling you?”

“Um?”

Shen Yan was staring blankly at the night scene outside, propping her chin with her hand, when she suddenly heard Qi Si’s words and turned to look.

Realizing Qi Si was talking about Qiao Zhilan’s incident, she felt surprised, “Mr. Qi knows about it?”

“Mm.”

Qi Si was dealing with something in his hands while listening to her.

“That family didn’t dare to trouble me, but their daughter is most likely going to transfer or take a leave of absence. This will leave a significant stain on her record, posing a substantial hurdle to her future prospects.”

Qi Si coldly said, “That’s too lenient.”

“…For her, this is already quite severe.”

Qi Si remained unconvinced.

Seeing that Shen Yan could handle it, Qi Si had no intention of intervening.

He could protect Shen Yan, allowing her to live purely under his wing.

But in his view, sometimes people need to be ruthless, not letting others think they can easily manipulate you, preying on you at every opportunity.

Sometimes, having an edge allows one to live better.

Especially now as she was mixing in this jumbled entertainment industry, she needed more cultivation in handling such matters.

Gu Ting had dined with Qi Si more than once, yet she still felt uncomfortable.

In the Shen family, even during meals, there was no such rule as eating without talking.

With Qi Si, Gu Ting acted as well-behaved as a good child.

Her ADHD acted up again.

She shifted in her seat, brewing for a long while without knowing what to say to break this oppressively quiet atmosphere.

Looking at her daughter, it seemed as if the person sitting opposite wasn’t even there, just eating and drinking normally.

She didn’t know her daughter’s endurance was so strong.

She would rather go to a restaurant than stay in such an environment to eat.

Last time in the restaurant, they could chat; here, she couldn’t even find a topic to break the silence.

After dinner, Shen Yan asked Gu Ting to stay over, but Gu Ting waved her hands as if seeing a ghost: “No need, no need, I prefer the hotel! You don’t have to see me off, mom has booked tomorrow’s flight, and you don’t need to come either. Take care of yourself after mom leaves.”

Gu Ting, as if afraid they would follow, quickly got into the car and urged the driver to hurry.

Shen Yan: “…”

She turned her head to look at Qi Si standing beside her, “She seems really afraid of you.”

Qi Si’s lips were pursed, his face expressionless, and his cold eyes bereft of emotion.

He looked like a cold robot.

No wonder Gu Ting felt uncomfortable.

Looking at him, he was like a walking refrigerator!

Thinking of Gu Ting’s fleeing figure, Shen Yan smiled and turned to enter the house.

It wasn’t that Gu Ting was afraid of Qi Si, but that she couldn’t stand the atmosphere he created.

Enduring it once or twice was okay, but more than that became unbearable.
