I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 248
Chapter 248
“I called you because I was hoping you’d know. I am sure Shi Wei has nothing to do with this, although I do want her to screw up soon. Mr. Zhou, please think harder. Who else wants to harm Mr. Fu?” Su Su didn’t want to help Shi Wei. All she wanted was to flatter Zhou Zheng and Fu Chengyan.
Su Su knew Shi Wei was nothing but a pawn while Fu Chengyan was the master of this little game of chess. If she managed to flatter Fu Chengyan, her revenge would be a success.
Zhou Zheng snorted internally. Su Su is indeed Shi Wei’s former best friend. They are birds of a feather. Compared to Anna, Su Su has little to no conscience. At least Anna repented after finding out the truth. Su Su didn’t even regret her actions.
Anna chose to leave, but Su Su chose to take revenge.
“Ms. Su, don’t worry. Even if we find out that Shi Wei is behind this, we will focus on the issue itself. You won’t be implicated.”
“That’s great. I can relax after hearing your words. Mr. Zhou, what do you want me to do?”
“Nothing. Just observe in silence. I’ll find out who’s behind this. And make sure Shi Wei stops inviting trouble for now. Where is she?”
“She went on a trip with her husband, but she will fly back today,” Su Su told Zhou Zheng everything. The man listened and ordered Su Su to console Shi Wei so the disgraced celebrity wouldn’t stir up more trouble for the paparazzi to hold against her.
But it wasn’t an effortless task. Shi Wei’s flight schedule was leaked, so she got surrounded at the entrance by reporters and paparazzi once she got off the plane.
Because Shi Wei had boarded the flight alone, she did not have her assistant or bodyguard by her side. The reporters immediately spotted her and swarmed around her. They shoved their microphones
in her face and focused their cameras on her.
“Ms. Shi, what is your explanation regarding the scandal?”
“Ms. Shi, are you really in a relationship with Shengyuan’s CEO, Fu Chengyan?”
“Rumor has it that Xinhuang—which is under Shengyuan Group—signed you on when you were involved in a scandal back then. What do you have to say about this?”
“Shengyuan’s CEO, Fu Chengyan, spent big bucks on you. He also allowed you to get St. Dee’s endorsement deal in Z Nation. What are your thoughts on this?”
“Ms. Shi, please answer our questions.”
“Ms. Shi, you have just married Fucheng’s Fu Xicheng. Everyone in Jiang City knows about this. Fu Xicheng is supposedly a distant relative of Fu Chengyan. What—”
“Get lost! Leave me alone!”
The reporters bombarded Shi Wei with sharp questions, causing her to lose control.
All she could hear was a buzzing sound in her ears. She wanted to push these people away so they would get lost. But the crowd trapped her, so there was no way to escape. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Someone in the crowd bumped into a man who was holding a camera. Losing his footing, the man hurtled in Shi Wei’s direction.
“Ah!”
Shi Wei’s high-pitched scream broke through the clamor. It was a chaotic scene as everyone squeezed forward to interview Shi Wei.
Shi Wei was knocked to the ground by the paparazzo. He had extended his arm to break his fall, but his hand coincidentally landed on Shi Wei’s chest.
Shi Wei immediately flushed a bright red. She was in a disheveled state. The woman started kicking and hitting the paparazzo on top of her. “Move! Get lost!”
It was rare to see a celebrity in this state, so the reporters started gossiping and taking photos of Shi Wei.
Even if they didn’t manage to interview her, news about Shi Wei being molested at the airport before she escaped in embarrassment was shocking enough.
After the paparazzi were satisfied with the photos taken, they left promptly with no regard for the miserable celebrity. Shi Wei was still lying floor, her eyes wide and blank.
The passersby were pointing and talking. “Is she crazy? Why is she lying on the ground?”
“Eh, she seems familiar.”
“Yes, look. Her clothes are all torn and her nipples are visible.”
“Yes, this woman… Hey, isn’t she a celebrity?”
“Hurry, take a photo of her! Oh dear, did we just run into a celebrity in this state?”
The onlookers were delighted and pulled out their phones to take photos of Shi Wei. Shi Wei, who was sprawled on the ground, finally snapped out of her daze. She immediately stood up when she saw the onlookers snapping pictures of her. The woman tugged at her clothes and yelled, “Stop it! Delete the photos, or I’ll sue you!”
However, the onlookers couldn’t be bothered. They shot her a scornful look and left immediately.
Shi Wei shrieked, seemingly on the verge of total derangement. “Stand right there!”
“Wei!” Su Su hurried over after seeing Shi Wei. She took off her jacket and covered Shi Wei up. “How did you end up like this?”
“I…” Shi Wei finally broke down after seeing Su Su and flung herself into Su Su’s arms.
When Shi Wei wasn’t looking, a smirk lit up Su Su’s face, and her gaze was icy. “Wei, didn’t I tell you to wait for me inside? Why did you come out? I only came out because you didn’t show up. What happened? Why are you in this state?”
“Let’s not talk about this. Where is your car? I want to leave.”
“Okay, okay. Don’t cry. My car is right there. Let’s talk in the car.” Su Su helped Shi Wei into the car and gave her a thermos flask. “Here, have a sip of hot tea. Tell me. What happened? I was waiting for you inside. Why did you come out?”
“I don’t know what happened. The paparazzi crowded around me and started bombarding me with questions. I couldn’t find you, so I ran out. I never expected the reporters would be waiting outside!”
Shi Wei was trembling furiously. She was terrified upon recalling what had just happened. She never knew this was what it felt like to be stalked and surrounded by a swarming crowd. The crowd didn’t even listen to her explanation. They kept accusing her of doing things she did not do.
“Seems like someone did it on purpose. Who could it be?” Su Su furrowed her brows. “Did you offend anyone recently? This person even tied you and Fu Chengyan together. I just called Mr. Zhou. He told me Fu Chengyan was furious, too. They thought you were the one behind this.”
“Of course it wasn’t me. I’m not a fool. Look, will I do this to myself?” Shi Wei wailed hysterically. “Su Su, you know me well. I love Fu Xicheng so much. I would never betray him. Someone must’ve framed
me.”
Shi Wei was certain someone had set her up. She felt terrified whenever she closed her eyes. How dare that paparazzo molest her after pressing her to the ground! “Su Su, what should I do? The reporters and paparazzi took photos of me in that state. What should I do?” It took her some effort to shake of her past scandal, so she couldn’t let this ruin her career.
“Su Su, call Zhou Zheng and ask him to deal with this.”
“But…” Su Su was stumped. “Mr. Zhou just told me to make sure you’d stay out of trouble, but you have just done that. He…”
“I don’t care. He’s Xinhuang’s boss. If he doesn’t help me deal with this, he would have to suffer the consequences too,” Shi Wei was shivering. “That paparazzo that just molested me – help me find out who he is. I must make him pay for what he did!”
There was a dangerous glint in Shi Wei’s eyes. On the surface, Su Su seemed to be worried about Shi Wei’s current predicament, but deep down, she was gloating at Shi Wei’s misfortune.
Shi Wei, I never dreamed this would happen to you. You should experience what I went through previously. How does it feel like to be framed and hurt?
Su Su sent Shi Wei to the hospital to check for injuries before sending her back to the Shi residence.
Because of what happened, Shi Wei dared not go to the Fu residence. She was afraid Fu Yuqing and Liu Minjun would put her in a tight spot.
Jiang Yu was distraught to see her daughter in such a state and pulled her upstairs. “Poor child, what happened? Who set you up? Was that person jealous of you?”
“Mom,” Shi Wei wrapped her arms around Jiang Yu miserably. “Mom, you must help me. That person must be jealous of me, so… It must be Shi Nuan! It has to be her!”
“Shi Nuan?” Jiang Yu was taken aback. “Why do you say that? What does this have to do with her?”
“It must be her. She was at Shengyuan’s annual meeting too. She must be jealous because I got St. Dee’s endorsement deal, so she took the photos to frame me and Fu Chengyan. Shi Nuan still hates me and Xicheng, so she did this to take revenge on us. Yes, it must be Shi Nuan. She was jealous because we got married, and that Fu Chengyan was impressed with my performance. Shi Nuan’s just a whore. Is she that jealous of me?”
Shi Wei clenched her fists. “Mom, it must be Shi Nuan.”
“What you said does make sense. Shi Nuan might be behind this, but do you have any proof?” Jiang Yu was rarely this clear-headed. “This has gone viral, and I won’t let anyone bully you. But it involves Fu Chengyan, and you know how he is like. If Shi Nuan was behind this, we can use Fu Chengyan to get back at her. If it wasn’t her—”
“It must be her! She’s the person who hates me the most in this world. She must be jealous because I am doing better than her!”
