Help! The Seductive Villain Chases Me Everyday to Expose My Other Identities!-Chapter 6
Chapter 6: The Red Mark on the Neck Was A Mosquito Bite
“A mosquito bite,” Chu Jinchen said unhurriedly.
Qiu Yaohang clearly did not believe him.
Chu Jinchen tapped the screen with his index finger and raised his eyebrows. “The live-stream was hacked?”
“I’m also surprised by this. It can’t be a simple hacker to be able to hack into the television station’s live broadcast room. I was thinking that Shi Ran had become smarter but It seems that someone else is behind this.”
With that, Qiu Yaohang turned to Chu Jinchen. “Is there still no news from Ray?
At that moment, the assistant knocked and entered.
“Third Young Master, there’s news of Ray.”
Qiu Yaohang was stunned for a moment.
‘Speak of the devil.’
“We discovered that the Zhou family’s Zhou Yufan is investigating Ray’s whereabouts. Following that, we discovered that Zhou Yufan received an email with Ray’s signature tonight.”
The Special Assistant handed over the contents of the email.
Qiu Yaohang stuck his head out curiously from behind Chu Jinchen, his expression clear, “So these two are really together. Seems like Shi Ran has been cheated on.”
Only then did he realize that he had digressed.
“Ahem...” He gave a fake cough and rubbed his chin, pretending to be serious. “Is Ray in need of money lately?”
“Young Master Qiu, Third Young Master offered Ray 50 million back then,” the assistant said silently.
What he meant was that it was impossible for Ray, who wasn’t interested in 50 million, to be short of money.
“Then what was Ray doing it for? Helping Shi Ran?”
“It’s not like him.” Chu Jinchen narrowed his eyes. “Investigate all the information on Shi Ran and her connections. Put them on my desk tomorrow.”
“Yes.”
After the assistant closed the door, Qiu Yaohang blinked his left eye teasingly. “Yufei has been filming in the capital recently. Could the mark on your neck be...”
He teased, “The two of you have developed so quickly. If Old Master Chu finds out, he will be overjoyed.”
Chu Jinchen leaned against the massage chair, his brows relaxed, and his fair fingertips rubbed the side of the glass.
Seeing that Chu Jinchen was not unhappy, Qiu Yaohang became even more excited.
“Didn’t the old fortune-teller also say that if the two of you get married, you will definitely be able to lead the Chu family to greater heights? Yufei is indeed very outstanding and I think she’s very trustworthy too.”
While he was talking non-stop, Chu Jinchen took out his phone from somewhere and tapped on it casually.
Qiu Yaohang craned his neck to take a look and was instantly dumbfounded. “Why did you call the police?”
“Feudal superstition. Reasonable report,” Chu Jinchen said lazily.
Qiu Yaohang was unconvinced. “Who can be as superstitious as your old man?”
“That’s perfect. You can still help me take care of the old man when you get into prison.”
Qiu Yaohang was speechless.
What a righteous move!
He looked at Chu Jinchen begrudgingly before landing his gaze on the other party’s pure white bathrobe and that gave him an idea.
White ... shirt ... Willow ...
Qiu Yaohang looked shocked. “Don’t tell me your hickey is related to Shi Ran?”
... .
At that moment, Shi Ran was getting a ride home.
After tonight, the Shi family would probably not be able to tolerate her. She might as well move out.
However, all her clothes were at the Shi family’s house, so she still had to go back.
Shi Ran walked slowly towards the Shi family’s house. Just as she reached the door, she stopped.
In front of her toes was a black lace bra and a matching panty.
Further ahead was a messy pile of wrinkled clothes which were strewn around like trash. There were also undergarments scattered around.
She narrowed her eyes and walked around the clothes on the floor without flinching.
She went to the door for facial recognition, only to be told a second later that it had failed.
So the Shi family had deleted her facial information.
“It’s late. The Shi family doesn’t take visitors.” The security guard stepped out.
Pretending that he had just recognized Shi Ran’s face, he slapped his head in frustration. “My eyes! I can’t believe I didn’t even recognize our Miss Shi Ran. I deserve a beating.”
Despite the flattering words, his inverted triangular eyes showed disdain.
Seeing that Shi Ran did not speak, he became even more arrogant. He then rubbed the soles of his shoes against the white clothes at his feet a few times.
When he saw black marks that were difficult to erase had appeared, he revealed a despicable smile.
“Master and Madam have given the word that your room has been cleared for Miss Feifei to stay in.”
“You have two choices now, Miss. You can either move out on your own or-”
The security guard pointed to the small garden. “There’s still room in Lucky’s kennel so you can pack up the clothes on the ground and move in, Miss.”
Lucky was a dog owned by the Shi family.
“You’re a security guard?” Shi Ran’s lips curled into a sneer.
“Yeah.” The security guard took a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and pulled one out, twirling the old-fashioned lighter in his other hand.
“Miss, is it that you feel humiliated by a security guard like me? Well, who asked you to be a stray dog now?”
As he spoke, the security guard looked Shi Ran up and down.
Shi Ran was still wearing the shirt and pants she had taken from Chu Jinchen.
Although she was covered tightly, her beautiful face was even more beautiful under the illumination of the streetlamp.
He smiled lecherously and took a few steps forward. “Actually, if you want to return to the Shi family, there’s a way.”
“Oh?” Shi Ran raised his eyebrows as if she was interested.
However, her eyes were cold, even colder than the night breeze.
The security guard was still hot headed and did not realize the seriousness of the problem.
He held out his hand to Shi Ran and smiled even more wretchedly. “As long as you’re willing to come to the security room with me and make me comfortable, I can do anything for you.”
Those dark, rough hands were about to touch Shi Ran’s face.
Shi Ran’s eyes turned cold before she raised her foot and kicked the security guard’s face without hesitation right in the chin.
The security guard fell back instantly with a loud crack.
The cigarette that had fallen from the security guard’s hand spun several times in the air before dropping to the floor.
Yet the lighter was being steadily held in Shi Ran’s hand.
She stepped forward and stepped on the security guard’s abdomen, crushing it hard, the same way he had just crushed her clothes.
The security guard held his shattered jaw, his pupils dilated, his face aghast.
She stood with her back to the light and her face shrouded in night. “Who gave you the courage to seek death in front of me?”
A soft voice exploded in the security guard’s ears, like the King of Hell coming to claim his life.
He wanted to scream but could not make a sound. He stared at Shi Ran with his eyes wide open, no longer looking as arrogant as before.
Shi Ran pulled back her foot and played with the old-fashioned lighter in her hand. She ran her thumb across the wheel and a small spark jumped up.
Holding up the firelight, she smiled slowly, her catlike eyes falling on the rumpled pile of clothes.
The security guard’s eyes widened as she tossed her lighter into the pile of clothes.
Boom.
Sparks burst through the fabric and ignited, illuminating the night. Even the streetlights looked dimmed in comparison.
Wisps of smoke rose slowly, steadily upward, until they disappeared into the endless night.
The Shi Family Living Room
“Mom, is this really ok? That’s Sister’s room after all. Where will Sister live after I move in?” Shi Wenfei grabbed the hem of her sleeping dress and looked at Mother Shi awkwardly.
“She should have thought of the consequences before having the guts to treat you like that today! If I don’t teach her a lesson, she’ll really think that she’s the eldest daughter of the Shi family!” 𝗳𝓇ℯe𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃𝚘𝚟𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝚘𝙢
“But...” Shi Wenfei bit her lip. “I’m also grateful that Sister has been by Mom and Dad’s side all these years, fulfilling filial piety in my place.”
“Feifei.” Mother Shi held Shi Wenfei’s hand in gratitude, her eyes red.
Father Shi sighed, his dignified face touched. “Feifei, these things have nothing to do with you. It’s Shi Ran who doesn’t know what’s good for her! You don’t have to feel guilty.”
As they were talking, a servant ran in with a panicked expression. “Master and Madam, bad news! There’s a fire outside!”
