As her hand shook, she died in the game. Yet, Qin Mu was almost dying from laughter.

“What are you laughing at?” Song Ruoci looked at her weirdly. She had never seen her being so happy despite dying in the game.

Qin Mu laughed so hard that she was tearing up. Yet, she waved. “Nothing… I just thought of something hilarious. Let me laugh for a while!”

“You’re laughing like that! There must be some hidden secrets!” Song Ruoci did not believe her. She went over and put her in a headlock. “Speak up! What exactly is it!”

No matter how Song Ruoci forced her to, Qin Mu refused to speak.

If she spoke about this matter, the one who should be ashamed was, kind of, still her.

After all, Yan Lishu went to the police station to bail her out.

…

Before the cameras, when Shen Ruiqing heard the reporter’s question, her beautiful smile vanished, and her face stiffened.

She looked at the man beside him with shock in her eyes. No way…

The man’s face was gloomy and solemn. It was not any good. He bit his thin lips and glared at the camera threateningly.

His dark, black pupils were filled with coldness and danger. He had not even spoken a single word, yet all the reporters felt alarmed.

Especially the one who was ‘tired of living’. His body shook a little, and he almost dropped the microphone in his hand.

Yan Lishu was only about thirty this year. If he were to have an illegitimate teen daughter, wouldn’t that mean that he already became a father when he was a teen himself?

Anyone with some common sense would know that it was not possible.

Shen Ruiqing regained her smile very quickly and calmly. She explained for Yan Lishu.

“Dear reporter, you must have made a mistake. Yan Lishu is my good friend for many years. I haven’t even attended his wedding. How could he have a daughter!” The ‘goddess’ Shen Ruiqing smiled brilliantly, rejecting the idea of Yan Lishu having an illegitimate daughter.

The way Shen Ruiqing explained made it seem as if the two of them had some romance.

Her intentions were clear. She was close to Yan Lishu, and they had a strong relationship. If Yan Lishu had a daughter in private, why wouldn’t she know?

Shen Ruiqing gave him an out. The reporter did not press on further. If Yan Lishu were to explode in fury, none of them would be able to escape.

For the sake of their lives, the reporter changed the subject immediately.

Song Ruoci chomped on some potato chips. “Wow, there must be some scandal going on between these two!”

“Just listen to Shen Ruiqing’s tone. It’s as if she is Mrs. Yan herself!”

Qin Mu glanced at Shen Ruiqing and Yan Lishu on screen. The two of them were posing for the reporters to take photos.

Shen Ruiqing was in a long red dress, and she had her arm around Yan Lishu’s. She smiled widely at the camera.

One was popular, and one was rich. The two of them were rather compatible!

The live-stream had not ended, but Qin Mu received a call from Qin Zezhang to return home.

…

The Qin Family

The moment Qin Mu stepped foot into her house, the butler rushed out immediately. “Second Young Lady, you are finally home!”

“Where did you go last night?” The butler looked at her up and down worrisomely. After noticing no issues, she said, “Second Young Lady, hurry to the study! The old Master is worrying about you!”

“Worry?” Qin Mu scoffed. She refused to believe that Qin Zezhang would be worried about her. “I think he just wants to beat me to death, huh!”

Hmph! She strutted upstairs. “I’m not meeting him. Whoever wants to can do so!”

Qin Mu had just stepped foot upstairs when Qin Zezhang walked out of the study room.

With a stiff face, he ordered strictly. “Stay right there!”
