Chapter 72 - 72 How Dare You Settle Scores With Me?

72 How Dare You Settle Scores With Me?

Chu Jinchen supported his chin and was calm and relaxed.

His lips curved as he met everyone’s gaze. “You all seem to be expecting something.”

There was no image of an imagined rage.

Everyone looked away, embarrassed.

They had thought that Third Young Master would be angry, but now it seemed that he did not even have the expected emotional fluctuations.

“Aren’t you angry, Third Young Master?” Shi Wenfei asked indignantly.

Shi Ran had already done such a thing, but Third Young Master was still indifferent?!

Was it too much love or simply not caring?

She certainly preferred the latter.

“Should I be angry?” Chu Jinchen asked as he looked at Shi Ran.

Shi Ran smiled quickly. “Why should you be? Everything looks filthy to a filthy person.”

“What do you mean? Are you trying to say that I wronged you?” Zhou Yufan narrowed his eyes unhappily.

“Where were we and what were we doing when you saw me and Qi Le? Why don’t you elaborate on that?” Shi Ran asked.

She didn’t want to deny that she and Qi Le knew each other.

In the memories of the original owner of this body, Qi Le had indeed accompanied her through a very torturous time.

It had nothing to do with Qi Le’s status. In her heart, Qi Le was merely her friend.

“Someone who works at the Jade Hunter should meet at the Jade Hunter, right? Only VIP clients are qualified to select the top host, right?” Yu Ziqian guessed.

“She’s the VIP of the Jade Hunter,” Zhou Yufan said sarcastically. “Only VIPs have the ability to bring a Jade Hunter hostess to the mall and hang out with him every day. How can ordinary clients be able to do that?”

“It’s just shopping. Is there a problem? I thought we were catching them in bed,” Zuo Yifei said at the right time.

Whether this was true or not, it seemed a thing of the past to him.

He liked Shi Ran, not the past of Shi Ran.

“Still not enough? Who would look for a gigolo to go shopping with?” Zhou Yufan said disdainfully.

“If you hang out with ducks, then you aren’t a decent person? Then, is CEO Zhou considered a decent person if he goes to the Charm Club?” Shi Ran played with the poker cards in her hand and looked up.

Charm Nightclub, another clubhouse that was as famous as the Jade Hunter.

“I’m there to talk about business,” Zhou Yufan said in a low voice.

“I went to the Jade Hunt to look for ducks. CEO Zhou went to the Charm Nightclub to discuss business. What double standards.” Shi Ran’s mockery was direct and didn’t beat around the bush.

[Although finding a duck is indeed a little… but how good is Zhou Yufan?]

[As a CEO like Zhou Yufan, he should be dirtier.]

[You’ve already enjoyed the company of female hostesses and you still have the right to criticize others??]

[No way, no way. Shi Ran, this is over just like that? How dirty it is to look for ducks!]

[If I had the money, I’d get one too. Happiness is everything.]

“You don’t have to change the topic. I didn’t expose you, nor did I settle scores with you back then. Of course, I don’t care now,” Zhou Yufan said generously.

“You’re already involved with my sister. How can you have the cheek to settle scores with me?” Shi Ran said frankly.

Everyone was speechless.

[This sister is really bold.]

[Can a normal man really swallow his anger when he finds out that his fiancée is cheating on him?]

[Love or no love, men can’t accept being cuckolded, can they?]

[Is that something I can hear on the show?]

[Truth or Dare has suddenly become a crime scene. I like it!]

[These two can really expose each other.]

[No, do you believe everything Shi Ran says? Who knows if it’s a diversion?]

“What are you talking about?!”

“Sister, how… how can you say such a thing!”

Zhou Yufan and Shi Wenfei spoke one after another. One was angry, and the other was ashamed. They looked like they had been wronged.

Shi Wenfei looked at Shi Ran with tears in her eyes. “Sister, why do you keep framing me? What did I do wrong? Why are you doing this to me?”

Zhou Yufan continued righteously, “Wenfei and I are innocent, and our relationship is normal. Even if you don’t like your sister, why drag her into this?”

“Innocent?” Chu Jinchen suddenly asked.

A smile appeared on his lips. “I saw President Zhou and his future sister-in-law kissing in the courtyard yesterday. Could I have seen it wrongly?”

[!!!!!!!!]

[Third Young Master’s Explosive Speech]

[Kiss??? Are these two so blatant??]

[They’re really together? Then wasn’t my Master Ran cheated on?]

[No comment since I do not know the full picture.]

[Third Young Master: I’m here. No one can bully my wife.]

“Third Young Master must have been mistaken.” Shi Wenfei bit her lip. Her expression was ugly, but she tried her best to hold it in because of the camera.

She did not expect Third Young Master to still stand on Shi Ran’s side at this time!

“Perhaps,” Chu Jinchen said meaningfully.

“This question should be over, right? Shouldn’t we enter the next round?” Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Bai Jingtian stood up to help.

Yu Ziqian immediately chimed in, “That’s right. Next round.”

The situation was getting worse for Shi Wenfei and the others. Third Young Master was also on Shi Ran’s side. If this continued, Shi Ran might even clear her name.

‘Absolutely not!’

“You haven’t said if you like Qi Le. If you lie, you’ll have to crawl like a turtle.” Chu Jinchen turned to Shi Ran and said.

Everyone in the room froze.

Wasn’t Third Young Master on Shi Ran’s side? Why did it seem different now?

[Looks like Third Young Master is angry after all.]

[Any man would be angry that the girl he likes hangs out with a gigolo.]

[Shi Ran brought this upon herself.]

[Am I the only one who thinks Third Young Master wants to hear Shi Ran personally deny that there’s someone she likes?]

[Previous comment, +1]

[Third Young Master just wants to hear Master Ran say that she doesn’t like that duck.]

[That’s quite a trick. I wouldn’t have thought of it if the bullet screen hadn’t mentioned it.]

Shi Ran met Chu Jinchen’s gaze and saw the faint smile in his eyes and she retracted her gaze.

“Qi Le is my friend. Being a Jade Hunter host is just his profession. It doesn’t mean anything. His body is countless times purer than those of you who claim to be clean.”

Shi Ran’s cold gaze swept across Yu Ziqian, Zhou Yufan, and Shi Wenfei. Every word was clearly meant for the three of them.

“Next round.” Chu Jinchen smiled when he got the answer he wanted.

[Third Master doesn’t seem very promising.]

[He’s so happy just because they’re friends?? Can’t you have some backbone? You’re a diamond rich second-generation heir!!]

[I don’t want to acknowledge this couple either, but the main character insists on knocking my head.]

[Master Ran is right. What’s wrong with being the lead host? If not for making a living, who would want to do this?]

[Dirty people see everything dirty]

[He’s just physically dirty. It doesn’t mean he’s dirty inside.]

[Third Young Master is actually jealous of a duck. I can’t believe it.]

The game progressed to the second round. This time, Yu Ziqian shuffled the cards again.

When Shi Ran saw the cards in her hand, she looked at Yu Ziqian meaningfully.

She then made her cards public.

“Four of spades. Shi Ran again,” Yu Ziqian said, feigning surprise.

She opened her cards. “I’m a ghost card. Then it’s my turn to be king!”

“Ask away,” Shi Ran said without a care, pushing her cards forward and leaning against the sofa behind her.

“Let’s see.” Yu Ziqian looked down as if she was thinking hard.

However, in fact, before this game started, she had already thought of a bunch of questions aimed at Shi Ran.

“Got it!” Yu Ziqian clapped.

She looked excitedly at Shi Ran and asked, “How many boyfriends have you had?”
