145 Wipe It Whenever There’s a Chance

Wen Yufei hurriedly waved her hand. “No, I don’t mean anything else. It should be the problem with the swimsuit. I was careless.”

“How is that possible?!” Xiao Qi said excitedly, “Didn’t you go with her to change into a swimsuit just now? Was it her?”

Wen Yufei panicked even more. She shook her head. “It’s really not her. I just looked at her subconsciously. I didn’t mean anything else.”

She refuted seriously.

Xiao Qi refused to let it go. “Sister Yufei, you still want to cover for her! How many times has this happened?”

[How many times???]

[F*ck, do you mean that this is not the first time? Could it be that Shi Ran often bullies Wen Yufei in private?]

‘Are you serious?’

[Is it very strange? She’s such an ingrate to her adoptive parents and Yufei is so weak. Is it very strange to bully her?]

[Is it because Yufei and the Third Young Master are childhood sweethearts that she found trouble with Yufei and even cut her swimsuit strap?]

[Why aren’t the fans barking anymore? Are they speechless?]

[Some people just listen to the wind and rain. They don’t have brains at all.]

“How many times?” Chu Jinchen’s lips curled up, and his dark eyes landed on Xiao Qi.

“While the camera is still there, why don’t you tell us what happened the first few times?”

Chu Jinchen originally did not intend to say anything.

He knew that this matter could be completely resolved and he did not need to interfere too much.

But now…

He really could not stand it.

Xiao Qi did not expect Chu Jinchen to suddenly speak and was suddenly pinned down by his black eyes.

She was so frightened that her body trembled. Her throat seemed to be stuck to something and she could not make a sound.

Shi Ran reached out and took the swimsuit from Xiao Qi’s hand to take a closer look.

In the end, she said indifferently, “This incision was cut with a pair of scissors, right?”

“Isn’t it obvious?” When Xiao Qi faced Shi Ran, she became aggressive again.

Shi Ran looked up at Wen Yufei. “Why don’t you tell me if I touched your bathing suit?”

Wen Yufei bit her lip, her expression troubled.

Xiao Qi immediately said, “Sister Yufei, just say it. If it’s not her, we can clear her name. But if it’s her, such a person will only implicate the production team.”

Wen Yufei hesitated for a long time before sighing helplessly. “In the changing room, I asked Shi Ran to help me hold my swimsuit first.”

“It’s really you!” Xiao Qi suddenly pointed at her.

[It’s really Shi Ran!]

[As expected, an ingrate!!!]

[Can such a person get out of the entertainment industry?]

[To think that she was even marketed as some female role model previously. What a joke.]

[The fans of Shi Ran have nothing to say now, right???]

[Why is she doing this? I don’t understand!!!]

A sharp glint flashed across Shi Ran’s eyes.

Birds of a feather flock together.

These two people were exactly the same.

Now, one was playing the good cop and the other was playing the bad cop.

“I remember that the moment before we entered the changing room, the camera was still filming. At that time, it could be seen that I only had a surfer coat in my hand and nothing else.”

“Moreover, before I changed my clothes, I didn’t have any pockets. I didn’t have any place to hide a pair of scissors.

The important thing is that I haven’t touched your bathing suit. With our relationship, you won’t feel safe to give me your bathing suit, right? It’s also impossible for me to help you carry your bathing suit.”

She said every word calmly.

“How is it impossible?! It doesn’t need big scissors. Who knows, you might be hiding one in the pile of clothes or in your belt!” Xiao Qi retorted.

She continued, “Moreover, wasn’t it because you wanted to frame Sister Yufei that you helped her get her swimsuit?!”

Shi Ran narrowed her eyes.

She lifted the swimsuit in her hand and waved for the camera to approach.

The camera zoomed in on the swimsuit in Shi Ran’s hand.

Wen Yufei and Xiao Qi did not know what Shi Ran wanted to do so the two of them looked at each other with nervous eyes.

Shi Ran suddenly raised the broken strap with her fingertips. “Everyone, you can look at the edge of the strap. There are light brown marks on it. It’s rust.”

Rust???

Everyone looked at Shi Ran in confusion.

“The inside of the scissors that were used to cut through the strap must be a little rusty as they rubbed against the strap.”

Xiao Qi panicked when she heard this. She pretended to be calm and tightened her grip on her bag.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, Shi Ran’s gaze landed on her.

“You still have that pair of scissors in your backpack, right?” she asked.

“What are you talking about?!” Xiao Qi said furiously, “You mean to say that I set Sister Yufei up? Don’t you think this is very funny?!”

“I didn’t say that.” She shrugged. “Maybe you two joined forces to frame me?”

“What a joke. It’s fine if you framed Sister Yufei, but now you’re talking nonsense here! You’re even pushing all the blame on us!”

Shi Ran smiled and pointed at the bottom of the white bag on Xiao Qi’s back. “What’s that?”

Xiao Qi looked down.

The camera immediately zoomed in.

Wen Yufei’s heart tightened as she looked over.

Under the white canvas bag between them, a small rust mark similar to the swimsuit strap was imprinted.

Xiao Qi was no longer as calm as before. She said anxiously, “I accidentally got this mark previously. Is there a problem?”

“Of course not.”

With that, Shi Ran pinched the marks on the swimsuit strap.

In the next second, rust marks appeared on her fair knuckles.

She smiled at the helpless Xiao Qi. “Can you wipe it off from your bag?”

Xiao Qi subconsciously tightened her grip on her canvas bag and took a step back. She looked at everyone warily, as if she was afraid that others would come forward to snatch her bag.

Seeing this, Wen Yufei immediately stood up. “Like I said, this has nothing to do with anyone. It’s the clothes.”

“Oh?”

Wen Yufei bit her lip. “You can’t conclude that this matter is related to Xiao Qi just because of this mark!”

“Then why do you think it has anything to do with me when your straps fell off? You said that I took your swimsuit and that I had held it so it’s me?” She sneered.

Wen Yufei still wanted to explain.

At this moment, Chu Jinchen’s lazy voice sounded. “It’s been wiped off.”

Everyone looked over.

Chu Jinchen had walked behind Xiao Qi at some point. His hand had wiped the rust on the canvas bag and his hand was stained.

He stretched his knuckles to the side of Shi Ran’s temporal fingers and pressed two fingers together.

“It’s the same,” he said seriously.

[Although it’s a very serious moment now, I still want to say that the Third Young Master did it on purpose, right???]

[He still didn’t forget to gain Shi Ran’s favor at this time. As expected of the Third Young Master.]

[The traces are exactly the same. What else is there to say?]

[So the bad person is actually by her side. She still has the cheek to frame our Master Ran!]

[Either the thief is crying out for help, or this assistant deliberately set up Wen Yufei.]

“It can’t be Xiao Qi!” Wen Yufei said firmly.

Her eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Chu Jinchen. “Jinchen, you know that Xiao Qi has followed me for many years and has done many things for me over the years. How could she do such a thing!”

Chu Jinchen smiled mysteriously. “It’s better not to keep an assistant with evil intentions by your side. It’s for your own good.”

Wen Yufei’s face instantly turned pale.

At this moment, Xiao Qi opened the canvas bag and took out the scissors.

She straightened her neck and said, “I picked up this pair of scissors from the fitting room. I don’t know who it belongs to!”
