Chapter 241 is completely destroyed.
Those around him whispered amongst themselves, mocking Meng Xinyu for her failed attempt to steal a chicken and losing her rice instead. Yan Zuozuo, on the other hand, was undoubtedly the biggest winner of the banquet. Three outstanding men, standing at the pinnacle of society, defended him, which made the socialites and ladies both jealous and envious, wishing they could be Yan Zuozuo themselves.
Meng Xinyu was bombarded with criticism and ended up being ridiculed. Naturally, she was indignant and hated Yan Zuozuo. No matter how Qin Yun tried to stop her, she mocked her fiercely, "Yan Zuozuo, you slept with Young Master Ou behind my cousin's back, and you still have the nerve to have such a man protect you. You're really something!"
Yan Zuozuo was struck dumb, her face turning deathly pale. At the same time, the entire banquet fell silent, everyone turning to look at Yan Zuozuo and Ou Luhan.
Meng Xinyu was deliberately trying to embarrass Yan Zuozuo, speaking very loudly so that almost everyone could hear her. The scene was like a farce, and everyone was waiting to see how they would handle it.
Chi Moqing narrowed his eyes, his gaze unfathomable. He stared intently at Meng Xinyu, his voice chillingly cold, "Xinyu, do you know the consequences of spreading rumors, hmm?"
“I didn’t spread rumors? Everything I said is true, I have evidence…” As she spoke, Meng Xinyu reached for her phone.
Yan Zuozuo swayed, instantly filled with terror. She turned to run away, but Chi Moqing grabbed her, looking at Meng Xinyu with a half-smile, "Then let's take it out and let everyone see." Yan Zuozuo trembled violently, biting her lip tightly, her eyes filled with panic. She didn't dare look at Chi Moqing; the truth was about to be exposed, and in front of so many people. She couldn't even imagine what kind of look Chi Moqing would give her.
She clenched her fists tightly, awaiting the darkest moment of her life.
"Wait!" Ou Luhan suddenly spoke, looking at Meng Xinyu with a half-smile, "It would be best if you could produce evidence, but if you can't, or if the evidence is forged, what do you suggest, Miss Meng?"
“I have the evidence in my hand, and it’s absolutely true. You don’t need to threaten me.” Meng Xinyu was blinded by jealousy. She took out her phone and said to everyone present, “The evidence is on my phone, and it’s something that Young Master Ou himself admitted. I’ll play it for you now.”
Everyone present held their breath, eager to know if Meng Xinyu was telling the truth. Chi Moqing's wife's ambiguous relationship with Young Master Ou was huge news… no, a massive scandal! It was incredibly exciting!
Amidst everyone's anticipation, Meng Xinyu walked up to Yan Zuozuo with a sinister smile on her face. "I warned you long ago. Since you insist on going your own way, today is your death day!" As she spoke, she pulled up the recording.
Yan Zuozuo's heart skipped a beat, feeling as if it would stop beating. She trembled and leaned against Chi Moqing's chest, her legs weak. She bit her lip tightly, closed her eyes, and dared not face what was about to happen.
Suddenly, the phone blared out obscene male and female voices, a cacophony of sounds, unusually heated and passionate: "Little vixen, if you want me to get rid of that slut Yan Zuozuo, you'll have to pay a price, won't you?"
"Ugh, I already gave it to you... Mmm, be gentle..."
"That's not enough, my little fairy Xinyu, let's change positions..."
Everyone exchanged bewildered glances, staring in astonishment at Meng Xinyu. Had this woman gone mad? She'd actually released a recording of herself having an affair, and the contents of it…
"Ah, no, no... that's not how it is. Believe me, I really have evidence. I'll find it for you..." Meng Xinyu was also terrified. How could the recording of her having an affair with a man, and even the recording of the man retaliating against Yan Zuozuo, be on her phone?
She was terrified and frantically searched for the recording of Yan Zuozuo and Ou Luhan. Damn it, where is it? Why can't I find it!
She randomly clicked on recordings, but every single one was a passionate conversation between her and a man, or even her sleeping with different men. The content was so outrageous that it was unbearable to watch.
She was practically going crazy, yelling and screaming, "You have to believe me, everything I said is true... That bitch Yan Zuozuo really slept with Young Master Ou..."
Ou Luhan narrowed her cold eyes: "Security, drag this crazy woman out!"
Meng Xinyu was naturally unconvinced. She had no idea why things had turned out this way. What happened to the recordings of Yan Zuozuo that she had hidden on her phone?
"You have to believe me, I'm telling the truth... You have to believe me..." she shouted frantically as she was being dragged along.
She had originally gone all in to expose Yan Zuozuo's scandal so that everyone, especially her cousin, could see Yan Zuozuo's true colors. That's why she spoke recklessly and without thinking. Little did she expect things to turn out this way.
Throughout the banquet hall, people were whispering and gossiping about the matter.
Ou Luhan suddenly spoke up: "What happened today was a laughing stock for everyone. Just treat it as a farce. Now that the drama is over, let's continue having fun. There's no need to worry about what just happened." He paused, then said loudly, "Regarding Miss Meng Xinyu's slander of me and Mrs. Chi, I will hand it over to the Ou Group's legal department for full handling tomorrow. Here, I sincerely apologize for the damage to Mrs. Chi's reputation caused by my personal refusal to associate with Miss Meng. Please forgive me, Mrs. Chi."
Ou Luhan's gaze was fixed on Yan Zuozuo, who was still in a daze, not knowing how things had suddenly taken such a turn for the worse. She had thought she was going to die, but the outcome was completely unexpected.
In her daze, she suddenly heard Ou Luhan's words. Faced with so many people and the chaotic scene, it seemed that she was not suitable to show any more expression than forgiveness.
She forced a smile, her face pale, her heart still pounding wildly, and she didn't even dare to look Chi Moqing in the eye.
Chi Moqing's deep gaze was fixed on her, but Yan Zuozuo kept her head down, remaining silent. Even now, did she still not intend to tell him the truth?
He felt a pang of pain in his heart!
"Young Master Ou, it's getting late, so we'll take our leave!" Chi Moqing said in a deep voice, and without waiting for Ou Luhan's response, he left the banquet with Yan Zuozuo.
Ou Luhan watched their retreating figures with worry. Although he had switched the recording, Chi Moqing wasn't stupid. What if he had already discovered something and was therefore bullying Yan Zuozuo? He was filled with anxiety.
Similarly, Fisher was also very worried. He originally wanted to chase after him, but then felt it was inappropriate. After all, Chi Moqing was Yan Zuozuo's husband, and if he chased after him, it would only bring more disaster to Yan Zuozuo.
He and Ou Luhan exchanged a glance, but neither of them spoke.
Qin Yun watched helplessly as Meng Xinyu was dragged away, and saw three men of noble status doing their utmost to protect Yan Zuozuo. She gripped her phone in resentment, even though she still had that recording on her phone. But after thinking about it, she ultimately said nothing.
She's not that fool Meng Xinyu. This recording could very well help her at a crucial moment, and now is definitely not the best time to release it.
Even if Fisher likes Yan Zuozuo, so what? With this recording, she doesn't believe Yan Zuozuo won't be at her mercy.
She sneered. Next up was her showdown with Yan Zuozuo. She wanted to see who would come out on top in the end!
The car was quiet. Yan Zuozuo's heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of her throat. Her mind was a mess, and she couldn't calm down.
If Chi Moqing really presses her for answers, should she tell the truth? If she does, what will be the consequences? Now that Meng Xinyu has lost the recording, will she still leave Chi Moqing?
Her mind was a jumbled mess, she felt dizzy and couldn't think clearly or think about anything.
Panic, fear, and confusion surged into her mind all at once, and her face grew even paler.
Chi Moqing remained silent, but the car sped up faster and faster, almost reaching 180 miles per hour.
Yan Zuozuo felt a chill run down her spine. She knew Chi Moqing was angry, but why was he angry? Had he already sensed something? Her heart trembled, and she felt so nervous that her stomach ached.
She turned her head and glanced at him timidly, but when she met his handsome face full of gloom, she panicked and didn't know what to do.
Chi Moqing remained silent, and she dared not speak either. After driving almost the entire city around, Chi Moqing finally drove home.
In the garage, Chi Moqing pursed his lips, his eyes dangerous. "Wife, is there anything you want to tell me?" Even though he was about to go crazy with anger, he still controlled his tone, afraid of scaring her.
Yan Zuozuo didn't know what to say and remained silent.
A dangerous atmosphere filled the cramped carriage; they could even hear each other's heartbeats. Her palms were sweating with nervousness, and she dared not look into Chi Moqing's eyes.
Chi Moqing forced himself to suppress his anger and remain calm; he absolutely couldn't frighten her. He took a deep breath and said in as steady a tone as possible, "Wife, let's go home first."
Yan Zuozuo nodded, got out of the car quietly, and didn't say a word. Chi Moqing suddenly grabbed her hand and led her home hand in hand, but Yan Zuozuo could no longer feel the warmth from before; instead, she felt a chilling coldness creeping over her!
She involuntarily shivered, and a feeling of fear quickly spread throughout her body...
Chi Moqing seemed to notice her unusual behavior and looked down with concern, asking, "What's wrong? Are you cold?"
Yan Zuozuo shook her head, still remaining silent.
Chi Moqing pursed his lips, entered the house and said, "You didn't eat anything tonight, I'll cook you some noodles. Be a good girl and wait for me in the living room." After saying that, he quickly went into the kitchen.
He needed to find a place to calm down and quell his anger, otherwise he might hurt her in his rage, which was the last thing he wanted to see.
So, he hid in the kitchen alone, cooking noodles, while Yan Zuozuo sat blankly in the living room, feeling empty and soulless, her heart filled with turmoil. She didn't know whether she should tell him the whole story.
If she told him, would Chi Moqing... would he abandon her, or even hate her? No, she couldn't bear to face his potential anger and contempt...
Oh my god, what should she do?
