Chapter 22
Jiang Yue’s Ghost?
Qin Ju got off the bed and picked up his phone from the side table hesitantly. He was scared and perplexed wondering how the phone which he had turned off a while ago could on automatically.
His hands were trembling and he was scared as hell but Hao Mei kept shouting at him to do something and turn off his phone. His phone was already off for god’s sake.
When he picked up his phone which was off, it’s screen suddenly lit up. A photo flashed on the screen which caused his hands to tremble. His eyes widened and his phone slipped from his phone.
” Qin Ju” Hao Mei was shocked seeing his petrified expressions.
” What happened? What did you see?” Hao Mei shouted in worry while carefully stepping off the bed and creating the distance between them. She was more worried about her safety rather than him.
His lips quivered as he said in a shaky voice, ” The phone...photo…” he was so shocked that even words were not coming out.
Hao Mei grew annoyed and shouted, ” What are you saying? Will you say it clearly?”
He took a deep breath and looked at her, ” It’s..our photo.”
.....
Hao Mei frowned and asked, ” Our photo? What about it?”
He clenched his fists and said, ” It’s...from our makeout session at the office today. In the photo, our faces are clearly visible and it can even ruin your whole career if this gets out.” he said in a low voice.
When he picked up the phone, a photo popped up on the screen and it was the photo of their makeout session at the office earlier. Not only that, but their faces were also clear and anyone could tell that it was them. Even though they had their clothes on, however, anyone could tell what’s going on. The angle of the photo was quite suggestive and will not take a minute to ruin their reputations.
If this photo got leaked in the media, not only Hao Mei’s but his reputation would be ruined. A sex scandal in the entertainment industry can ruin anyone’s career. Even if they announce their relationship, this will still affect their reputation and career opportunities.
Hao Mei’s face turned pale upon hearing his words. ” WHAT? Our photo? While making out? How can that be possible? Isn’t that your office?”
Her voice shivered as she asked with suspicion, ” Qin Ju, be honest with me, were you filming us when we were together?”
She can’t help but wonder who could take a picture of them other than him.
His expressions darkened hearing her words, ” Hao Mei, is this what you think of me? Do you think I would do something so low? I cheated on Jiang Yue just to be with you and here you’re blaming me. You’re unbelievable.” he was speechless how blatantly she was accusing him.
Hao Mei pursed her lips hearing his words. She was still doubtful but chose to remain silent.
” The..then who can do this? Those curses earlier? A dead person?” Hao Mei asked in a low voice while wrapping the blanket tightly around her.
” Dead person? No way…” Qin Ju raised his head and stared at her in shock. He was not sure if what he was thinking was true or not.
” Is it Jiang Yue? It’s not her ghost, right? Hah, how can that be? Ghosts are not real. That can’t be possible.” Hao Mei mumbled while trying to deny this possibility but shock and fear were obvious on her face. Jiang Yue is dead but the robotic creepy voice talked about the curse of the dead person and called Qin Ju a cheater. He has cheated Jiang Yue, if not her then who could it be?
She was shaking in fear and was trying hard to understand who played such a dirty prank on them.
…..
In the hospital room, Xu Nuan placed the laptop aside and was sitting on the bed while supporting her back against the elevated bed. She was feeling more relaxed after causing chaos in their life.
Her lips were curled up in a smile and she couldn’t help but giggle sometimes out of excitement. After finding out that Qin Ju and Hao Mei not only cheated on her but also trying to take her wealth, she felt sickened and outraged.
She would have forgiven them for cheating on her because she can’t control anyone’s feelings. Feelings change and she is not a shallow person to dwell on such things. She was hurt but not to that extent.
However, what irked her was that they not only cheated on her but was shamelessly trying to take over her wealth. How can someone be so shameless? Now she was seriously considering if what happened to her was an accident or not.
Because it was so coincidental that she made her will only a few months ago and this happened. Not only that, in the album shoot, only she had action scenes especially using the harness. Everything is just too coincidental.
She doesn’t care about the betrayal part because she was not that crazy about Qin Ju that she would try to waste her time to take revenge on him. But she just can’t sit back and let him take what’s her and enjoy his life happily with Hao Mei.
She is not so kind. That’s why she used a robotic voice to curse him, this was for the fun though. She wanted to curse that cheater bastard to her heart content. However, for their makeout session photo, even though it is Qin Ju’s office, there was still a CCTV camera, which can only be seen by QIn Ju.
Since it’s the CEO’s office, this kind of security is required. Maybe he has forgotten about this camera, but she didn’t. And where there is a camera, it’s not hard for her to get the information. She just wanted to get a photo of them together, maybe kissing or something. But she was not expecting to find the video of their makeout session. She felt even more disgusted. She wasn’t planning to release the photos, at least not now. She wants to scare them to their wits and get her work done.
” Why are you smiling like this?” she was startled when she heard Han Zihao’s question.
She raised her head a little and looked at him. She sighed and wondered why he was still here.
It’s already past 10 and he is still here.
” Mr. Han, why are you still here? Aren’t you busy? I think you should go and rest at home.” she said politely.
Han Zihao frowned when he heard her polite words. She was making a line between them. It’s not that he wanted to stay here as well, but for some strange reason, he doesn’t want to go back either.
” Ms. Gu, please don’t misunderstand. I am not staying here for you,” he said with indifferent expressions.
” Then why are you still here?” she asked while raising her brows.
