Qiao Sisi looked at Zeng Qing with indescribable disgust. Now she hated this man as much as she had liked him before.

He has committed adultery, slander, and plagiarism. What else is he not capable of doing? she thought.

Fortunately, Zheng Zeyi had an influential family background. They had found out about the dirty things that Zeng Qing had done in the past. How could she have fallen for this man?

Indeed, one should sharpen one’s vigilance to see things as they really are.

Zeng Qing’s biggest secret was exposed, and his face instantly turned pale. He could not help but gulp and glare fiercely at Zheng Zeyi. “You’re talking nonsense! When did I plagiarize a thesis? You two are in cahoots, and now both of you are joining forces to slander me, right?!”

At this point, he still wanted to throw mud at the two of them.

Zheng Zeyi said with a faint smile, “Slander?”

Many people around them were taking photos with their phones and discussing this matter in private. However, they did not dare to be too ostentatious.

Qiao Sisi took a deep breath and shouted, “Zeng Qing, do you think we’re joking with you? You slandered me as a mistress in front of everyone, and refused to clear your debts after borrowing my money. Now you even come after us. In addition, you have commited the crime of plagiarism. Do you want to go to jail?!”

She deliberately emphasized the last few words.

Standing beside her, Zheng Zeyi wrapped his arms around Qiao Sisi’s waist and could not help but tighten his grip. He quietly watched her display her prowess.

All eyes were on Zeng Qing. His eyes were bloodshot as he pointed at Qiao Sisi and shouted, “It was clearly this woman who distorted the truth, seduced me, embarrassed me, and made my girlfriend leave me. Qiao Sisi, are these not enough for you? Do you want me to lose my reputation too?”

Hearing this, many of the colleagues began to look at Qiao Sisi differently.

As for who to believe, it was really hard to say.

Qiao Sisi’s eyes were clear. Faced with baseless slander, she had already calmed down and was not as emotional as before.

She sneered and said, “It seems you still don’t know what’s good for you. To be honest… These crimes are enough for you to serve some time in prison. If you don’t believe me, come tomorrow, you will be served a court notice.”

Every word struck Zeng Qing like a hammer.

He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

He was aware of the consequences of plagiarism. However, this matter had clearly been hidden very well. After he had ensured there was no evidence left behind, he wondered why the matter was dug out now.

“Young Master Zheng, must you cover up for this woman?” Zeng Qing suddenly looked up, gritted his teeth, and blurted out.

Zheng Zeyi raised his eyebrows and said nonchalantly, “How can you say that? What’s wrong with what my fiancée said?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he glanced around. The people from the company lowered their heads in unison. The aura was really too strong.

“Qiao Sisi!” Zeng Qing was clearly breaking down.

If this matter was exposed, he would not even have his last defense and he would not be able to catch the big fish, Zhang Li.

The more he thought about it, the more hatred Zeng Qing felt. He looked at Qiao Sisi like a venomous snake.

Seeing this, Qiao Sisi frowned slightly. It seemed that Zeng Qing was determined to drag her down. He was really unrepentant.

Feeling the grip on her waist tighten, Qiao Sisi’s face reddened slightly, but she quickly calmed down and continued to add fuel to the fire. “Zeng Qing, since you dare to do these things, you have to be prepared to bear the consequences. If Professor Hu finds out that his student relied on plagiarism to climb up the ladder, he would probably be heartbroken that he taught a social scum!”

Qiao Sisi shook her head in disappointment as she remembered the white-haired Professor Hu.

After she had finished speaking, there was a short silence.

The next second, Zeng Qing’s eyes flashed fiercely as he raised his fist and charged at Qiao Sisi.

“Gasp!” The people around gasped. Was he about to break down and hit someone?

It was so fast that QIao Sisi did not have time to react. Her mouth gaped slightly as she looked at the fist that was just inches away. She regretted not being prepared.

At the critical moment, Zheng Zeyi suddenly moved. He raised his leg and kicked Zeng Qing. The force was so strong that Zeng Qing instantly fell to the ground and could not move.

“Bang!” A loud sound was heard.

“That’s amazing…” Her colleagues could not help but exclaim.

Qiao Sisi came back to her senses and looked blankly at Zheng Zeyi’s side profile. It was as exquisite as a sculpture, making it impossible to look away.

She really did not expect this man to be so strong. If Zheng Zeyi had not intervened in time, Zeng Qing’s fist would have landed on her.

“Handsome!” Qiao Sisi smiled and praised from the bottom of her heart.

Zheng Zeyi naturally did not miss the praise from the person in his arms. He seemed pleased as his lips curled up.

Everyone’s gaze fell on a battered and exhausted person on the ground.

Zeng Qing lay on the ground, unable to move. He felt as if all the bones in his body had fallen apart. The slightest movement was painful.

“Qiao Sisi, don’t think I’ll give in just like that!” Zeng Qing gritted his teeth as he said this. His expression was a little twisted as his hatred surged.

Qiao Sisi was not bothered by his hysteria at all. “You’d better take care of yourself first and see how you can escape jail.”

It would have been better if she had known the character of this person sooner, but it was still not too late.

There was a hint of a smile in Zheng Zeyi’s eyes. He retracted his gaze from Qiao Sisi and called out, “Someone!”

“Yes!”

At his order, a few bodyguards in black appeared.

Qiao Sisi looked up slightly and saw Zheng Zeyi telling them, “Send this person to the police station.”

With that casual sentence, the bodyguards went forward and pulled Zeng Qing up from the ground in an extremely rough manner.

Zeng Qing could not help wailing as his wound was hurting. As he struggled, he shouted, “Let go of me! Let go of me. This is a personal attack…”

He struggled with all his might but could not break free from the bodyguards’ grip.

The colleagues in the company consciously made way for the bodyguards to pass through.

Zeng Qing gradually disappeared from the entrance of the company, and the wailing could hardly be heard.

Having solved a big problem, Qiao Sisi heaved a sigh of relief and relaxed.

Just as she was about to thank Zheng Zeyi, Qiao Sisi suddenly realized that after Zeng Qing left, her colleagues’ eyes were all on her.

There was inquiry, curiosity, and contempt…

“This lineup…” Qiao Sisi’s lips twitched awkwardly as she swallowed her words.

Zheng Zeyi raised his eyebrows slightly and reached out to tuck a strand of her black hair behind her ear. He bent down slightly and whispered gently into her ear, “Sisi, remember to go home early tonight.”

His ambiguous words and his warm breath beside her ears stunned Qiao Sisi. She could not help blushing.
