Chapter 145: Threatening Shen Qing

Page (1/3)

Tian Dafeng... To hell with Tian Dafeng!

Xia Mang was close to tears. Shen Qing, who was utterly hopeless at naming things, had truly appalling taste.

“What did he say? Did he laugh at me mercilessly?”

“I don’t know.” Shen Qing glanced at Xia Mang. Dongfang Cheng had asked Gu Ting to pass the message along.

“You two, that night at the bar...”

“Nothing happened!” Xia Mang hurried to clarify.

Shen Qing gave her a sidelong look and asked with a faint smile, “Why are you panicking?”

“I’m not panicking at all. Nothing happened, honestly. Qingqing, your mind is so impure!”

“Takes one to know one.”

By the time Shen Qing returned from Xia Mang’s place, night had completely fallen.

“Well, if it isn’t Sister Zhong Yi?”

Shen Qing had not even reached the Medical Group building when she heard a woman’s voice that was not entirely unfamiliar.

She turned slightly and frowned at the woman approaching her.

“Important people have such terrible memories. Don’t you remember me?” Gong Yue lifted her chin and spoke arrogantly.

Shen Qing narrowed her eyes. “Who are you?”

Gong Yue had prepared an entire arsenal of sarcastic remarks, but she had never expected Shen Qing to refuse to play by the usual rules.

“I... I’m...” All the words Gong Yue had prepared flew out of her mind. She certainly could not say that she was here to cause trouble for Shen Qing.

Shen Qing glanced at her and remained silent for a long moment. What a waste of time.

“Hey! You can’t leave!” Seeing that Shen Qing was about to go, Gong Yue hurriedly blocked her path.

“Is there something you want?” Shen Qing pressed her lips together, impatience radiating from her entire being.

“You must apologize to me for what happened that day.”

Gong Yue had gotten into the Medical Group through her uncle’s connections. Elder Qi had reported the matter directly to her uncle, and she had consequently received a thorough scolding.

She had been the princess of her family since childhood. When had she ever suffered such humiliation?

“How boring.” Shen Qing gave her a cold look and walked around her.

Gong Yue let out a cold laugh. “Do you know who my uncle is? Believe me, I can make sure you and Zhong Yi can no longer survive here.”

Shen Qing stopped. One corner of Gong Yue’s lips curled upward, her smile dark and sinister.

“Even if you don’t care about your future here, your younger brother Zhong Yi still needs his.”

Shen Qing turned around and faced Gong Yue. “Is your uncle the person in charge of the Medical Group?”

Gong Yue was immensely pleased with herself. “So what if he is? So what if he isn’t? Someone like you wouldn’t have the chance to meet him anyway. You’d better apologize to me properly, and make sure you sound sincere. Otherwise, Zhong Yi’s future will be...”

“Gong Yue, what are you doing here?” A middle-aged man’s voice drifted over.

Hearing it, Gong Yue became even more triumphant.

“Well? Have you thought of what you’re going to say?” A malicious smile spread across Gong Yue’s face. She then turned and ran toward the approaching man.

“Uncle, why did you leave so early today?”

“Oh, the Master isn’t here today, so there was no reason to stay. Who was that person you were talking to just now?”

“Oh, she’s the one who bumped into me in the cafeteria that day. She’s here to apologize.”

The man took another look. The girl stood beneath the streetlamp, wearing a baseball cap that obscured her face. Yet there was something strangely familiar about her.

“You mean she was the one who bumped into you first that day?”

“That’s right.” Gong Yue nodded and walked toward Shen Qing, with the man following behind her.

Gong Yue curled her lips and mouthed a warning to Shen Qing: if she dared say anything out of line, Zhong Yi’s future would be ruined.

“Well? Go ahead. I’m listening.” Gong Yue lifted her chin, looking every inch the superior one.

Shen Qing raised her head and lifted the brim of her cap slightly, revealing her exquisite brows and eyes.

Gong Yue stared in a daze. Then she remembered Zhong Yi calling her ugly that day, and jealousy flared inside her like a raging fire.

Why should she, a wealthy heiress, be inferior to an ordinary girl?

“Miss Shen? It really is you!” The man did not recognize Shen Qing until he came closer. Surprise and delight filled his face.

Shen Qing glanced at Gong Yue. “Yes, Dr. Zeng.”

Dr. Zeng promptly pushed Gong Yue aside and stood before Shen Qing, speaking to her with great enthusiasm.

“Where did you go today? I have several questions I’d like to ask you. Do you have time now?”

Hearing the way her uncle addressed Shen Qing, Gong Yue failed to react for a moment. When he rudely shoved her aside, she was even more stunned.

Could this girl be the mechanical genius her uncle was always talking about?
