Chapter 1063: Chapter 630: Scandal Escalation: The Third Party? The Abandoned First Wife? (2 Updates)

Because Qi Zeyan’s face is clearly visible, he was naturally the first to be pushed into the spotlight.

#Qi Zeyan’s Romance Exposed#

#Qi’s Mysterious Girlfriend#

These are normal tags, but mixed in were some bizarre ones like #CultCP#, #FourthMasterHeartbreak#, #HeartacheJiangChengsi#...

Everyone is curious about who Qi Zeyan’s girlfriend is, and some speculate if this is all a publicity stunt for the drama "Feng Que".

Some are digging into the identity of the mysterious girlfriend, while others find it quite boring.

"He’s not a celebrity. He earns more in an hour than we do in a year. What kind of partner he finds is none of your business."

"Worrying unnecessarily about other people’s business."

"Even if he is in a relationship, he has no obligation to tell you. He doesn’t live off fan traffic. At his age, isn’t it normal to date?"

...

Qi Zeyan dating naturally has nothing to do with netizens; everyone is just curious. Surely some are quite jealous, especially since Qi Zeyan has such a good reputation, and who hasn’t dreamed of being Cinderella?

On the way to the club, Qi Zeyan received countless calls, with some reporters managing to obtain his phone number; he ended up only answering a call from his own grandfather.

"Qi Zeyan, what’s going on? That’s Xiaoruan, isn’t it?" The old man had visited Ruan Mengxi’s place and recognized her at once.

"Yes."

"Are you two together?" Grandfather Qi was more joyous than surprised.

The pig he had raised for so many years finally knew to dig for cabbage, so he had to celebrate with firecrackers.

"No."

"But aren’t you eating together and watching movies?"

"I’m unrequited."

"Embarrassing! When she liked you, you didn’t cherish it; now you’re sticking yourself to her—serves you right!"

"..."

Just as Qi Zeyan was about to say something, the call was abruptly hung up.

Club

Ruan Mengxi was focused on driving until she reached the club and noticed that Tang Wan and Qi Zeyan had called her multiple times. When she returned the calls, she learned that matters about her and Qi Zeyan had been put online.

"You shouldn’t go to the club for now; Fifth Brother went over, let him handle things there. You come to my place first." The club’s fire safety problem was apparently a trap.

"But..."

Ruan Mengxi had already arrived, and the staff had been waiting by her car.

Even the government officials doing the fire safety check were there. They were just waiting on her as the person in charge; how could she leave?

The staff noticed she hadn’t come out for a while and tentatively knocked on the car window.

The club staff were quite panicked as everyone always felt a respect and fear towards government officials without a backbone.

"Didn’t you say I wouldn’t be targeted? I’m already at the club, let’s handle things first, I’ll leave once it’s done."

"Clearly someone wants to set you up, the club’s issue is just a trap."

"Don’t worry. I’m not a pushover. I’ve been through some things and won’t go down easily. I’m curious to see what they can do."

"Xixi!"

"If they’re targeting me, even if it doesn’t work this time, there’ll always be a next time. Might as well show them I can’t be bullied."

Once out of the car, Ruan Mengxi met the fire safety inspectors. Due to recent heavy snow, two fire escape routes hadn’t been cleared in time, which was a negligence posing a safety risk.

The inspectors ordered them to suspend business for a few days and issued a penalty, requiring rectification before another check. Ruan Mengxi nodded in agreement and escorted them out, then sighed in relief.

"How many customers are currently here?" Ruan Mengxi asked Xiaozhang beside her.

"About twenty or so. We’ve mentioned we’d issue refunds, but they said they came to drive cars, insisting on going to the racing track, our kind persuasion was to no avail."

Ruan Mengxi nodded and as she reached the resting area door, she heard sounds of a dispute inside.

"I’m really sorry, Miss. This is a sudden situation, we deeply apologize."

"Wasn’t the inspection finished? I can drive a car, no problem."

"We need rectification..."

"Do you guys even have anyone in charge here? Stop brushing me off."

Ruan Mengxi recognized that the opposite party was deliberately causing trouble; they couldn’t control being reported on fire safety, and since this was Jiang Chengsi’s place, without someone’s instruction, she truly couldn’t think who would dare act so boldly.

She pushed the door open, "I’m the one in charge here."

The lounge was crowded, and the ones causing a fuss were just a few girls, looking about seventeen or eighteen years old. In this cold weather, they were bare-legged, wearing leather jackets and skirts, exuding a street-wise vibe.

"Auntie, can you take responsibility?"
