A Substitute Bride With Multiple Identities
Chapter 63: More Wronged than Dou E

Chapter 63: Chapter 63: More Wronged than Dou E

When Qi Yunqian and Fu Yanhe arrived at the second-floor lounge with extreme speed, the corridor was in an uproar.

The snap of media cameras, screams from Fu Yu, rebukes from Mrs. Qi, and the sighs of curious guests.

It gave Qi Yunqian a throbbing pain at his temples. He furrowed his brows and bellowed angrily, "Enough!"

The noise in the corridor instantly quieted down and everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice. Upon seeing Qi Yunqian and Fu Yanhe, the media holding cameras looked somewhat afraid.

They knew that Haicheng was under the rule of the Qi and Fu corporations.

But the scandals of these two families were too attractive to them.

"Who allowed you to come here?" Qi Yunqian asked, his face ashen as he eyed the media coldly, his voice icy and compelling. Fu Yanhe, standing beside him, said nothing, but the oppressive aura emanating from him made everyone on the scene feel a chill.

One of the young people wearing a sunhat and a mask pointed at Fu Yu, who seemed relieved to see Fu Yanhe’s arrival, and said hoarsely, "Miss Fu called us here!"

Fu Yu opened her eyes wide in panic: "I didn’t..."

The young man didn’t wait for her to finish and quickly added, "She told us there was big news in the lounge! She said the president’s fiancée was fooling around with another man in the lounge! Mrs. Fu was involved too!"

After speaking, the young man quickly hid back in the crowd.

Fu Yanhe, who had initially come to understand what Fu Yu had done, narrowed his eyes slightly, his dark pupils gradually falling on Fu Yu.

Qi Yunqian’s icy gaze also fell upon her.

Sweat broke out on Fu Yu’s back as she anxiously looked at the two men and explained, "Yunqian, brother, he’s talking nonsense! I did not summon the media!"

"All I did was! I just saw Song Shiwei hugging and cuddling with a man, so I called Aunt Qi to come take a look!"

Yes, she wanted to frame Song Shiwei and see her ruined, that was true, but she was not foolish.

If she caused too much of a scene at the Qi family’s engagement party and aired their dirty laundry, she could forget about ruining Song Shiwei or getting Qi Yunqian. Mrs. Qi, who valued the family’s reputation above all else, would tear her apart!

So after arranging everything, she had only called over Aunt Qi and a few guests as eyewitnesses. She didn’t call these media people at all!

"Also, brother, I didn’t see sister-in-law at all! Don’t be fooled by him!"

She had barely finished speaking when a soft voice came through, "Eh? Why are there so many people here? Don’t tell me something happened to Miss Shen."

The crowd in the corridor all turned towards the source of the voice. Xia Ran, who was walking towards them, stopped in her tracks with a hint of unease on her face, "Isn’t it? I just saw Miss Shen sneaking up here by herself, and then a lot of media followed..."

Xia Ran, however, was puzzled.

What was going on? Her people had clearly seen Shen Yanhe enter the lounge and had also spotted an unsightly man enter and then lock the door behind him.

Why did the media gather in the corridor after coming up instead of entering to take pictures?

And there was no sign of Shen Yanhe around.

She shouldn’t have been able to go far after drinking the medicine Xia Ran had given her.

Before Xia Ran could finish, the door of the adjacent lounge was opened from the inside. Song Shiwei, dressed in a black bathrobe, wrapped up tight, opened the door, looking sleepy. Yawning and with impatience in her voice, she asked, "What’s all the noise about?"

The people in the corridor all looked over, and at the sight of Song Shiwei, Qi Yunqian’s heart suddenly eased, while Mrs. Qi, dissatisfied with her disheveled appearance, frowned heavily.

Seeing the unharmed Song Shiwei, Fu Yu’s expression turned to one of shock, her voice rising loud and shrill as she asked, "Song Shiwei, why are you in this room, you clearly..."

"Why can’t I be in another room?" Song Shiwei raised her eyebrows, crossed her arms and leaned against the door frame with a smirk, cutting her off. She pointed at the media in the corridor with their cameras, "Did you bring these media here? What are you trying to do, catch a cheater?"

"That’s right! Catch a cheater! I saw it with my own eyes! You were hugging and cuddling with a man...!" Fu Yu, already frantic upon seeing Song Shiwei unscathed, blurted out without thinking, following her lead.

Before she could finish, Song Shiwei was interrupted by a snicker, "Wait, excuse me, did you really see me hugging and cuddling with a man as we came up? The person I was hugging and cuddling, was clearly a woman."

"Impossible!" Fu Yu’s eyes were bloodshot, nearly glaring at Song Shiwei with hatred, pointing to the unconscious man in the room: "If it was a woman, then what’s the situation with this man?"

"How would I know?" Song Shiwei shrugged, looking at Fu Yu with a smile that was not quite a smile: "The woman I was holding, you know her, she’s your sister-in-law."

"My sister-in-law?" Fu Yu found it unbelievable, she had clearly arranged a man!

How could it possibly be Shen Yanhe?!

Even Xia Ran, who had been enjoying the show the whole time, suddenly had a darkened expression in her eyes.

Why was Shen Yanhe so lucky?

To think she was saved by the woman from the Song Family!

Fu Yanhe’s gaze turned icy as he looked toward Song Shiwei, "Is she with you?"

Under his sharp gaze, Song Shiwei mustered her courage and nodded, "Yes."

"I had just changed my clothes and was already downstairs when I happened to see the honorable lady had sprained her ankle, sitting at the stairwell, so I carried her to the resting room for a break. I was planning to notify you."

A helpless expression appeared on Song Shiwei’s face as she spread her hands in explanation, "But before I had a chance to inform you, you showed up, and I was misunderstood as cuddling with a man..."

She gave a bitter smile, "I’m even more wronged than Dou E."

The onlookers in the crowd showed signs of realization on their faces, murmuring softly, "That is quite unjust, but what kind of eyes does Fu Yu have? She can’t even tell if the person being held is a man or a woman."

"Shh, don’t you know Fu Yu likes Qi Yunqian? When she saw the woman holding someone, of course she assumed that the woman was being intimate with another, ready to make a complaint to Qi Yunqian."

"Tsk tsk, Fu Yu was quite crazy about Qi Yunqian before, didn’t expect her to still be that crazy now..."

"But was the person she was holding really the Shen Family’s daughter? It couldn’t just be an excuse, could it?"

The media, eager in their hearts, wanted to interview Song Shiwei for a few words, but under the oppressive presence of Qi Yunqian and Fu Yanhe, they didn’t dare to make a move.

Fu Yu was so angry she was trembling, glaring furiously at Song Shiwei, wanting to say something, but she was stopped by a cold glance from Qi Yunqian, who warned in a low voice, "Enough, Fu Yu."

Regardless of what the people around him were saying, Fu Yanhe pressed a button on his wheelchair and moved towards the resting room where Song Shiwei was located, prompting the people in the hallway to make way.

As he entered the resting room, he paused slightly, casting another cold and sharp gaze at the media outside, his voice grave, "Wu Fang, take care of these people."

Wu Fang, who had been following behind him, nodded, "Yes, Young Master."

Song Shiwei, watching Fu Yanhe, walked ahead into the room, "Please follow me, Young Master Fu."

Xia Ran hurried to keep up, saying, "Ah He, I’m a med student, let me go in with you to check on Miss Shen’s condition..."

Before she could finish, the door to the resting room was closed mercilessly, just a centimeter away from hitting her nose.

Xia Ran had not anticipated that Fu Yanhe would still refuse to save her face in front of so many people; her face immediately felt aflame with embarrassment.

Among the guests, those who didn’t care for her were gleefully murmuring, "A half-baked skill and she wants to treat people, what a joke."

After their murmurs, the guests and media were dispersed by Wu Fang, and before they left, all the photos captured in their cameras were deleted.

Soon, only Qi Yunqian, Mrs. Qi, Fu Yu, and Xia Ran were left in the hallway.

Wu Fang stood guard outside the resting room door, and without an order from Fu Yanhe, he wouldn’t let a single person in.
