Chapter 1528 - 1528 They Set Up A Trap
1528 They Set Up A Trap
Kang Ru had a noble status and was once an earl of Y Nation, so he was respected and flattered no matter where he went. He had never been mocked like this in public. He immediately retorted loudly, “It doesn’t matter what the promise is. Since Bright Moon has already agreed not to pursue the matter, why did she suddenly go back on her word and let Qingzhi suffer the insults of netizens?”
“Mr. Kang, have you forgotten that Miss Bright Moon was competing on stage just now? She didn’t have time to take a video at all. What right do you have to blame her without distinguishing right or wrong?”
Kang Ru instantly choked.
Everyone in the venue also looked at the Kang family in disdain and defended the injustice. “Yes! Miss Bright Moon was making perfume just now and hasn’t left the venue since. How could she have time to take a video or send a message?”
“You didn’t watch the video carefully, right? Young Master Yang was in the banquet hall at the side and accidentally went to the wrong place. He recorded your conversation and posted it on his WeChat Moments. He didn’t want to blow things up, but someone posted this matter online. Kang Qingzhi’s fans were unconvinced and insisted that the other party show some evidence, so the other party posted the video online. This matter is clearly Kang Qingzhi and her brainless fans’ fault. What does it have to do with Miss Bright Moon?”
“Moreover, even if Miss Bright Moon posted it online, she’s not in the wrong. She was wrongly accused of seducing the judges and suffered countless curses. Now that she has proven her innocence, you’re not letting her clarify things. It’s clearly Kang Qingzhi who’s jealous of her and framed her to report her. However, Old Madam Kang even attacked Miss Bright Moon personally. Instead of realizing your mistake, you’re accusing Bright Moon. Isn’t this too much?”
Kang Ru’s face was livid from the reprimand. The words in his mouth were stuck in his throat, and his pale lips moved. Looking at everyone’s disdainful gazes, he could not say a word.
Things had blown up. Everyone knew what Qingzhi had done. What should they do?
Kang Qingzhi had just left the venue. When she heard that the video had been uploaded online, her vision darkened and she almost fainted.
Her fans were clamoring for the other party to produce evidence, so that person uploaded the video online?
“Miss Kang, I didn’t expect you to be such a person. You don’t dare to bear the consequences of your mistake, and you let your family oppress Miss Bright Moon with their power. Don’t think that just because you’re a two-time champion of the perfume competition that you can be lawless. Who knows if your championship is real or not?!”
The contestants looked at her in disdain. Those who used to curry favor with her all stayed far away, afraid of being implicated.
Kang Qingzhi’s mind was a mess. Her face was pale as she leaned against the armrest and forced herself to stand.
Hearing everyone’s words, she gradually realized what had happened. She thought that Qiao Xi would eventually compromise under the pressure of the Kang family, but she never expected that she would still be tricked by Qiao Xi.
How could Young Master Yang have taken the wrong path and recorded that video? He was clearly instructed by Qiao Xi! Moreover, Yang Xu was Gu Yao’s friend. If Gu Yao had not agreed, how could Yang Xu have uploaded the video to his WeChat Moments?
Gu Yao was Gu Zheng’s younger brother. They were all family. In order to protect Qiao Xi, they set up this trap. Even without Qiao Xi’s help, they could make the Kang family pay the price!
Only then did Kang Qingzhi understand that this was Li City, Gu Zheng’s territory. The Kang family did not have the chance to display their skills here at all. They would be completely led by the nose by Gu Zheng.
As long as Gu Zheng was by Qiao Xi’s side, she would never be able to defeat Qiao Xi. Now, not only was Qiao Xi’s reputation not ruined, but the Kang family’s perfume business had also suffered a huge loss!
Kang Qingzhi clenched her fists tightly, her eyes filled with resentment. After a long silence, she suddenly looked up. Her eyes calmed down, and she revealed a sinister smile.
A man like Gu Zheng was probably willing to marry Qiao Xi because he had taken a liking to her face, but he would get tired of her one day. He liked Qiao Xi just for the sense of novelty, but she was more outstanding than Qiao Xi and had tricks up her sleeve. Would Gu Zheng like her?
Kang Qingzhi’s gaze landed on Gu Zheng. If she wanted to gain Gu Zheng’s favor, she must not take the initiative to seduce him. An outstanding man like him must have long gotten used to seeing women curry favor with him. If she was like other women, how could she pique Gu Zheng’s interest?
Now that the matter had blown up and their conversation had been recorded, Kang Qingzhi knew that no matter how she defended herself, no one would believe her. She just quietly endured the mockery and disdain around her.
