Capítulo 11: Brazenly Spouting Lies
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Wearing a casual suit, Qin Huaichen walked from the end of the corridor, causing the previously silent contestants to become restless.
"Ah! It's the Heavenly King Qin Huaichen! He's so handsome! He's even more handsome in person than on TV!"
"He's looking at me! He's walking towards me! Ah, I'm going to faint!"
The contestants whispered in excitement, trembling with excitement. In the midst of everyone's gaze, Qin Huaichen approached Fu Xiaoya. He noticed that she was unharmed but there were scattered coffee stains on her skirt. He furrowed his brows and turned to the organizer's manager accompanying him, asking, "What's going on here?"
Manager Yu, sweating on his forehead, couldn't quite grasp Qin Huaichen's intentions and nervously replied, "We will investigate and ensure that we do not hire individuals with improper conduct."
Qin Huaichen's displeasure was evident in his expression. "Then tell me, who is the one with improper conduct?"
Manager Yu looked at Fu Xiaoya standing beside him and a disheveled Zhang Li lying on the ground. Wasn't the situation clear enough? It was obviously Fu Xiaoya causing trouble! Couldn't Qin Huaichen see it? Or was he trying to play the hero in this situation? Manager Yu seized the opportunity and said, "Zhang Li, you don't need to continue with the audition."
Coffee was still dripping from Zhang Li's head. She wanted to speak up in her defense, but a mouthful of coffee flowed into her mouth. Anger consumed her, and she ignored everything as she got up and pounced towards Fu Xiaoya. Forgetting the warning given to her earlier, she shouted in rage, "You wicked woman! You dare to ruin my future? I'll tear you apart!"
Fu Xiaoya deliberately didn't dodge. When others were being forceful, she had to show weakness. In front of so many people, she didn't want to expose her evil side. The contestants who were just spectating didn't know Fu Xiaoya's thoughts. They thought she would resist Zhang Li like before, so they took out their phones, ready to capture the scene of Fu Xiaoya being domineering and bullying. Fu Xiaoya looked too good, which made them feel threatened. So, they were willing to tarnish Fu Xiaoya's reputation at this moment.
However, Fu Xiaoya didn't dodge. Not only did she not dodge, she even exclaimed in pain as she was pushed down by Zhang Li.
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!" This miserable scream was not from Fu Xiaoya, but from Zhang Li. After pushing Fu Xiaoya down, she fell to the ground herself, and her palm happened to press against the shattered glass pieces of the water kettle, piercing her hand.
The contestants who had expected to witness a spectacle cursed inwardly at Zhang Li's incompetence. And Zhang Li's behavior fully confirmed that she was the one with improper conduct who was bullying others.
"Quick, quick, take her away," Manager Yu called the security guards, urging them to take Zhang Li away.
Fu Xiaoya stood up and brushed off the dust from her body. Her gaze remained on Zhang Li. Although Zhang Li's misfortune was caused by her, she wasn't happy about it because her skirt was stained. Her possessions were expendable, something she could easily let go of, but she couldn't tolerate anyone else laying a finger on them.
"Wait," Qin Huaichen called out, stopping the security guards who were pulling Zhang Li.
A glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in Zhang Li's desolate eyes. Could it be that her idol, the Heavenly King Qin Huaichen, was going to intercede for her? The security guards looked at Manager Yu with confusion, not knowing what to do. Manager Yu was also at a loss. Could it be that he had misunderstood Qin Huaichen's intentions?
Fu Xiaoya watched Qin Huaichen with great interest. Could it be that he was going to stand up for Zhang Li?
Qin Huaichen spoke up, "Miss Zhang Li, I don't think you should leave after you dirty someone's dress. Shouldn't we discuss compensation? Shouldn't there be an apology?"
Zhang Li's expression of gratitude froze in an instant. She couldn't believe what she was hearing from Qin Huaichen. Wasn't he supposed to plead on her behalf? How could...
Qin Huaichen retrieved his phone and displayed a photo of the 'Yasheng' public formal dress. He added, "The dress that Fu Xiaoya is wearing is a recent release from M Master, a prestigious designer, in October of this year. Once a dress of this caliber is stained, it becomes unwearable."
If anyone else had said this, nobody would believe it. But coming from Qin Huaichen, nobody dared to refute it.
Fu Xiaoya stood beside them, stunned by what she heard. Her dress didn't have any labels. Her mother had bought it for her. Given their financial situation, how could they afford a dress worth over a million?
Fu Xiaoya thought to herself that this Heavenly King Qin could lie without batting an eye. But she wouldn't let go of this opportunity to take advantage of the situation. After all, Zhang Li had bullied her.
