Chapter 669: 620

When the private room door closed, Hu Qinglan couldn’t help but burst into curse words as she watched the enchanting Zhang Yuqing lean on Liu Hun and reach out to play with the very stick she herself had longed for in her dreams. “Slut! Whore! Street trash! Prostitute!” she yelled, all the while frantically rubbing herself.

Just now, Zhang Yuqing had also been “helping herself to the buffet” in the next room, and was likewise drugged. She understood all too well that this kind of “buffet” would not only fail to solve any problems, but would only make things worse. The ferocious look on Hu Qinglan’s face was proof of that.

Liu Hun didn’t have time to waste words on Qu Jiarong and Hu Qinglan. After stripping Zhang Yuqing naked, he made her twirl in front of Hu Qinglan to show off her curvaceous body.

“Trash! Don’t get cocky in front of me! You’re nowhere near as good as me! Not even close!” Hu Qinglan yelled maniacally, continuing to rub herself as she screamed at Zhang Yuqing.

“Just delude yourself! I’m going to have fun now, you just slowly enjoy your ‘buffet’. This is the consequence of trying to screw me over!” Zhang Yuqing said, desperately kissing Liu Hun.

Liu Hun had no wish to bother with Hu Qinglan any longer and, holding Zhang Yuqing in a very particular position, left the private room.

“Let those two go, bring in a gigolo and a hostess!” Liu Hun said as he carried Zhang Yuqing off, simultaneously walking and thrusting his way into the adjacent room.

Zhong Xiao immediately acted, summoning two gigolos to untie the ropes on the two captives.

In a scene too obscene for words, four people fought wildly, sky darkening and earth dimming with the tumult of their battle. Zhong Xiao then retreated and closed the door.

“Brother Zhong, the media reporters have arrived! They are already at the door,” the manager hurriedly reported as he ran over.

“Just stick to the original plan, you handle things here,” Zhong Xiao said before leaving the club through an alternative passage.

While Liu Hun was in the thick of it, a swarm of reporters, led by the manager, crowded into the next private room.

“Click-click-click…”

Countless flashes captured scandalously obscene images in that instant, freezing them into the cameras of all the reporters, turning into a bombshell that would shock the whole of Hong Kong the next day. All the misdeeds done to frame Zhang Yuqing backfired onto Hu Qinglan and Qu Jiarong.

“Entertainment industry scandal exposed, actress and wealthy household deeply mired in filth.”

“Real estate tycoon heir’s private life in complete disarray, pulls actress into chaotic gatherings.”

“After the celebration of ‘As Tears Go By,’ unable to control herself, the actress finally falls into a trap.”

“…”

Every media outlet’s front page was plastered with the scandal of Qu Jiarong and Hu Qinglan. Despite being pixelated, the exposed areas gave a glimpse of just how obscene the scenes were.

“Slap!” Qu Liheng slapped Qu Jiarong across the face. “Look! Look at this! What is all this?”

“Dad… Dad, let me explain!” Qu Jiarong had already cursed Liu Hun and his entire family a hundred and eighty times over in his heart.

Qu Liheng, red-faced and gasping for breath, pointed at Qu Jiarong with the newspaper, “Explain! I want you to explain this to me!”

“I… I was set up!” Qu Jiarong said, pretending to be incredibly aggrieved.

“Set up? Who set you up? Huh? Who would do such a thing? Why would they target you specifically and not someone else?” Qu Liheng interrogated, then flipped open the internal photos he obtained and threw them in Qu Jiarong’s face. “Look at what you’re doing here! Look at your behavior! You seem quite pleased with yourself! Does this look like someone set you up?”

“Dad… this is… someone drugged me!” Qu Jiarong said, feeling shaken as he looked at the photos, recalling the moment the reporters had burst in when he was still joyfully in the midst of the ordeal.

“Li Heng, you know your own son. This has to be someone deliberately setting him up,” Chen Bizhu spoke to Qu Liheng.

“Don’t make excuses for him!” Qu Liheng rebuked his wife. “All my life, whenever I’ve tried to discipline him, you’ve stood up for him. And look where that’s gotten us now!”

“Oh come on! It’s just some tabloid news. Who doesn’t have a messy situation these days? Besides… we can’t jump to conclusions without a thorough investigation!” Chen Bizhu continued to defend her son.

“Mother’s right…”

“Shut your mouth!” Qu Liheng snapped at his son and then turned to Chen Bizhu, “What do you know?! The board is putting a lot of pressure on me right now! A lot! If our son doesn’t step up, who will take over? Do you really expect me to hand over my life’s work to a stranger?”

“Alright, alright, calm down! Calm down! Jiarong, go make your father a cup of tea.” Chen Bizhu patted her husband’s back, urging him to sit, then continued, “Think about why these journalists got here so fast. They must have been tipped off. Isn’t that a setup? Call Old Yun and have him look into it properly.”

When it came to calling the journalists, Qu Jiarong’s face twitched involuntarily. He was indeed the one who had called them, but he hadn’t expected to trip over his own plot.

“I’d rather it were a setup! If we can clear that up, it’ll also ease the pressure from the board! Why are you still standing there? Get out!” Qu Liheng picked up the phone and pointed at his son as he cursed.

“Here’s your tea, Dad. I’ll go out now,” Qu Jiarong said resignedly, setting down the teacup and quickly leaving Qu Liheng’s office.

“Jiarong, wait!”

Qu Jiarong had only taken a few steps out of Qu Liheng’s office when he heard his mother’s voice from behind.

“Mom, what… what do you want?” Qu Jiarong asked, feeling guilty and uneasy.

“What do you think?” Chen Bizhu glared at her son, pulled him aside, and demanded, “Tell me honestly, what exactly is going on?”

“Mom! I’ve already told you, someone deliberately framed me!” Qu Jiarong said with feigned grievance.

“Fool your father if you must, but you dare to play tricks in front of me! If you don’t come clean, I won’t be able to help you! Once your father kicks you out, let’s see how you survive!” Chen Bizhu crossed her arms, threatening her son.

“Mom! Please, you can’t let Dad kick me out!” Qu Jiarong quickly grabbed Chen Bizhu’s hand, pleading with her.

Chen Bizhu looked at Qu Jiarong coldly and asked, “Then tell me honestly, what’s really going on?”

It took Qu Jiarong a long time to reluctantly reveal the entire story to Chen Bizhu. Upon hearing the details, Chen Bizhu scolded, “I’ve told you time and again not to fool around with those actresses! You just don’t listen! Now that you’ve caused such a mess, you still think you can hide it and let the police investigate?”

“Mom!” Qu Jiarong said with difficulty, “I also had no choice! If I hadn’t said that in the office just now, Dad would have beaten me to death!”

“What are you planning to do now, huh?” Chen Bizhu was very angry with Qu Jiarong. Seeing that he wasn’t talking, she spoke again, “Let the police investigate the matter thoroughly! Then they’ll find it was you who bought the drugs! You who found the people! You who called the journalists!”

“Mom! I know I’m wrong! Please help me!” Qu Jiarong immediately realized the gravity of the issue, begging his mother desperately.

Chen Bizhu pointed at Qu Jiarong’s nose and said, “You’ve always been like this since you were young! Whenever you face a problem, you try to delay and hide it! You never think about facing it and solving it directly! All you know is indulgence, with no idea of hard work!”

“Mom! I know I’m wrong! You realize how serious the issue is now too! You really have to help me!” Qu Jiarong implored Chen Bizhu, knowing that she was his last resort. If the whole affair were to come out, he’d be ruined.

While they were talking, Qu Liheng’s female secretary came over and addressed Chen Bizhu and Qu Jiarong, “Director Chen! General Manager Qu! There’s a lady outside who asked me to deliver this to General Manager Qu.”

Chen Bizhu didn’t think twice before snatching the note, which turned out to be Hu Qinglan’s cry for help. Then Chen Bizhu crumpled the paper and told the secretary, “Go out and tell her that General Manager Qu has gone abroad on vacation, and she should stop looking for him in the future.”

“Yes, Director Chen!” The secretary nodded and left. She was well aware of Chen Bizhu’s status and the weight of her words.

“Mom… this doesn’t seem right!” Qu Jiarong still held on to the grace of the beauty.

“What’s not right about it? Would it be better for you to be thrown out by your dad? Then go see her, I don’t care anymore!” Chen Bizhu turned her face away, adopting a threatening pose.

“Mom! I know I’m wrong! I’ll do whatever you say, is that not enough?” Qu Jiarong quickly changed his tone, clearly thinking it was more important to keep his indulgent lifestyle.

“Listen to me! Stay in the office and don’t go anywhere for a while! I’ll have your meals delivered to you! You can’t show your face anywhere; disappearing from the public eye is the fastest way to mitigate the damage! Only when you vanish from public view will people forget you and this incident!” Chen Bizhu warned her son, quite experienced at handling scandals and the media.

“Alright,” Qu Jiarong agreed with difficulty, then suddenly asked, “But what about Dad’s investigation? What do we do about that?”

“I’ll handle that. Just blame it all on that actress. It was her intention to hurt someone, to begin with. When the time comes, push all the blame onto her and portray you as the victim. Only then will you have a chance to take over your father’s position! That’s that,” Chen Bizhu said, not allowing for any protests, she turned and went back into Qu Liheng’s office.

Qu Jiarong sighed deeply, cursing Liu Hun through eighteen generations of his ancestors, then left dejectedly.

Three days later, all the major newspapers and media gave further reports on Hu Qinglan’s scandal and the police investigation, indeed putting all the blame on Hu Qinglan. She had initially hoped to use the incident to play the victim and salvage her career. In the end, she didn’t expect to be backstabbed by Qu Jiarong, who dealt her a cruel blow, thoroughly ruining everything.
