After Transmigrating as a Tycoon’s Wife, My Thoughts Are Heard by the Whole Family - Chapter 67

After hanging up the phone, Sheng Wenyue looked very disappointed. He hadn’t expected Ruan Jia to become so unscrupulous. He said to Wang Jiani, “I’m sorry, I apologize on behalf of Ruan Jia. She… she’s gone completely mad. I’ll definitely have a serious talk with her later.”

“It’s alright, I understand she loves you. Love always makes people crazy. I… get it,” Wang Jiani said. Hearing Sheng Wenyue mention divorce, she felt a surge of excitement. She hadn’t expected this misfortune to turn into a blessing, making Sheng Wenyue lean more towards her.

She gazed at Sheng Wenyue with flirtatious eyes, but he involuntarily avoided her gaze.

Wang Jiani put on a pitiful, innocent, and wronged expression. Sheng Wenyue caught a glimpse of it, and his heart softened. In a moment of impulse, he grabbed Wang Jiani’s wrist.

Wang Jiani was about to feel delighted.

“I’ll take you to clear things up!” Sheng Wenyue declared.

Wang Jiani’s face suddenly changed. How could she dare? She tried to hold Sheng Wenyue back, but it was too late.

It was because Sheng Wenyue saw her pitiful look and felt sorry for her that he was determined to stand up for her and seek justice for both of them.

Their manager was busy deleting posts and didn’t stop Sheng Wenyue’s impulsive act of justice in time.

The door of the makeup room was suddenly pushed open. The room, which had been as noisy as a marketplace just moments ago, instantly fell silent. No one had expected them to come back.

They had all prepared themselves mentally not to shoot with the famous actor’s group. After all, publicly revealing such scandalous information was just… too embarrassing.

Oh no, now that they’ve returned, it’s making the onlookers uncomfortable too. No one dared to make eye contact with Sheng Wenyue and Wang Jiani.

[Damn, they actually came back? Shouldn’t they be too ashamed to show their faces, finish their work separately, and then sneak away?]

Not just Ji Fei, even Qin Zhao and Gao Hao were surprised to see the two at the door.

[I can feel the word ‘awkward’ floating in the air. Are they planning to use the ‘as long as I’m not embarrassed, others will be’ trick to deal with all this? Indeed, those who can survive in the entertainment industry rarely have thin skin.]

While Ji Fei was internally criticizing, she saw Sheng Wenyue, with an ashen face, pulling Wang Jiani towards her.

Judging by his expression, he was forcing himself to face this. However, Sheng Wenyue had transformed his embarrassment and anger into fury towards Ji Fei, and he immediately went on the offensive.

“Miss Ji Fei, stealing Jiani’s dress was one thing, but now you’re making up stories and spreading rumors about my relationship with my junior without any discretion. Don’t you think you’ve gone too far?” Sheng Wenyue finished, his eyes sweeping over Gao Hao and Qin Zhao with a warning glance.

Wang Jiani’s face paled, feeling guilty.

But suddenly, her eyes lit up as she remembered something. That kind of store would never provide surveillance footage, as it would violate customer privacy and cause brand reputation issues.

So there was basically no evidence of what happened that day. It all depended on how they told the story. With Sheng Wenyue trusting her so much, what did she have to worry about?

Wang Jiani steeled herself, deciding to carry the deception through to the end. She put on a look of someone who had suffered great injustice as she looked at Ji Fei.

Now everyone’s eyes lit up again. Was there more to this drama? Was the earlier joke not an accident? Is it really this explosive?

Ji Fei was stunned.

She had originally just wanted to teach them a small lesson because she couldn’t stand their behavior. They should have chosen to swallow their pride due to their guilty conscience. She hadn’t expected them to confront her like this.

She had indeed stolen the dress for Ruan Jia and set them up, but…

[I’m spreading rumors? I’m not distinguishing right from wrong? How did he come to that conclusion… Damn, this is too much. The situation has reversed so fast I can’t keep up. As expected, cheating men always believe their wives are lying and the other women are telling the truth. Just because Ruan Jia learned about my identity from her sister, he immediately assumed that I conspired with Ruan Jia?]

[Is he planning to stand up for Wang Jiani and settle scores with me?]

Qin Zhao frowned and immediately stood up, positioning himself in front of Ji Fei protectively. He was about to unleash his sharp tongue when Gao Hao stopped him.

Gao Hao couldn’t allow the two sides to create a huge scene, but he also wouldn’t let the other party walk all over them. So he smiled and said, “Mr. Sheng, it’s all a misunderstanding. Ji Fei was talking about someone else. How did you come to think it was about you?”

Sheng Wenyue’s manager had also arrived. The smart thing to do would have been to handle this quietly, but since Sheng Wenyue had already acted impulsively, they had no choice but to see it through. Otherwise, the famous actor’s reputation in the industry would be at risk, and people would laugh at him.

“We all know who Miss Ji was talking about. We don’t want to cause trouble, but we’re not afraid of it either. We’ll be shooting the show together in the future, so it’s best to clear up any misunderstandings now. We believe Miss Ji might have been taken advantage of due to her trusting nature. If Miss Ji is willing to sincerely apologize, we won’t pursue this matter further,” the manager said.

[Damn, this manager and Sheng Wenyue together don’t even make up one complete brain. They actually believe Wang Jiani’s words.]

With the two managers facing off, the atmosphere became tense. Other staff members wanted to find the director and producer.

But the onlookers from various groups became excited, almost wanting to gather around and shout, “Fight! Fight!”

“Huh, asking our people to apologize? Are you joking?” Qin Zhao said coldly.

The expressions of Sheng Wenyue and his two companions changed.

“That seems to be asking too much. I believe our Miss Ji hasn’t done anything wrong,” Gao Hao’s face also darkened.

Although he was initially anxious about the trouble Ji Fei had caused, he believed that Ji Fei definitely wasn’t lying. So now it was Sheng Wenyue’s group trying to deny everything and even attempting to turn the tables on Ji Fei. This couldn’t be allowed!

“Are you trying to cover for her?” Sheng Wenyue’s expression showed he was thoroughly angry.

Just as Qin Zhao and Gao Hao were about to speak, Ji Fei interrupted them.

“Um, I don’t understand. Mr. Sheng, you just said I was spreading rumors?” Ji Fei suddenly asked with an innocent look.

“Aren’t you?” Sheng Wenyue replied with a cold stare.

Ji Fei opened and closed her mouth, looking completely confused as she said, “So, you’re not married? You’re single?”

Sheng Wenyue was suddenly at a loss for words, not understanding why this question came out of nowhere.

Ji Fei curved her lips slightly, “Or are you saying you didn’t stop your wife’s card because of Miss Wang? And you didn’t give your VIP supplementary card to Miss Wang to use?”

Sheng Wenyue’s pupils contracted.

“Or maybe you’re saying you didn’t deliberately ignore your wife’s calls, couldn’t be reached even when she called your assistant, but you replied to Miss Wang’s messages instantly?”

Sheng Wenyue’s face gradually turned red.

“Perhaps your wife and Miss Wang never met that day?”

Sheng Wenyue remembered the slap and finally found it difficult to breathe.

Ji Fei said with a troubled expression, “Mr. Sheng, exactly which part of what I said was a rumor?”

[You want me to prove myself? Why don’t I expose you as the hypocrite you are first!]

Qin Zhao immediately felt relieved. As expected, only his sister-in-law could bully others; there was no chance for others to bully her.

At first, everyone was skeptical, quietly observing and waiting for Sheng Wenyue to refute. But after waiting for a while, they found that the person who had just been accusing Ji Fei of spreading rumors couldn’t utter a single word now.

Even the manager seemed choked up.

Didn’t this prove that all the questions just now were true?

And they thought there would be some kind of twist!

Everyone looked at Sheng Wenyue in disbelief.

Why did he come back, only to humiliate himself?

And he came back so aggressively and self-righteously?

How did he have the confidence? He must be an idiot.
