Huang Xiaolong, looking all familiar and at ease with Wu Shanshan, squeezed his way through the crowd and walked right up to the stage, right up to Wu
Shanshan.
“What… what are you trying to do?” Wu Shanshan retreated a step, looking both horrified and angry at Huang Xiaolong. “Will you ever stop? Just leave! I don’t want to see you!”
Wu Shanshan was truly frustrated. Huang Xiaolong had humiliated her terribly and even caused her to lose her job. Given her explosive temper, she should be confronting him fiercely. But she dared not provoke him particularly in this setting, in case Huang Xiaolong would condemn her in public — that would be the ultimate disgrace.
She had no choice but to swallow her anger!
“Fat Wu, you’re really tall.” Huang Xiaolong, standing at about 1.78 meters tall, had to look up when addressing Wu Shanshan, who, thanks to her high heels, loomed imposingly at a height of 1.95m. “With a height like yours, you should be making quite a bit of money as a car model, right?”
“I! I! You think I love being a car model? Isn’t it all because of you that I lost my job!” Wu Shanshan exclaimed between gritted teeth and added with a sob, “I beg you, let me go, spare me, won’t you? I have apologized to you. Don’t keep harassing me. Don’t annihilate me, okay?”
At her words, the surrounding crowd seemed to contemplate a lot.
Could it be, there’s a story between this “perfect model” and this shabby-looking country bumpkin?
Huang Xiaolong was startled. “Fat Wu, I didn’t harass you or harm you, did I? The last time, it was clearly your fault. I was the victim. Why do you act now like you’re the aggrieved party…” He lifted his gaze to her prominent mountain peaks that were perfectly symmetrical. “Look, after my treatment, aren’t both your breasts the same size now? Why don’t you thank me in person? I didn’t even charge you for my services.”
Splash-
Upon hearing his words, Wu Shanshan felt as though she had just spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Just then…
“You shameless bitch, Wu Shanshan!” A shrill voice rang out.
Soon, a tall girl dressed in a white backless halter-top dress stormed towards
Wu Shanshan. A group of heavily made-up young women, each standing about 1.7 meters tall, followed closely. Further behind was a man dressed head-to-toe in famous brands in his thirties.
“Hmm? Song Jia?” Wu Shanshan furrowed her brows slightly with an expression of disgust on her face.
Clearly, Wu Shanshan and the girl in the white backless halter-top dress had an unfriendly relationship.
“I just really find it amusing how considerate and professional you look, yet you’re so dishonest!” The girl in her halter-top dress approached Wu Shanshan. “No wonder you were kicked out of the police force! You’re just a liability, aren’t you?”
Exposing her scandal right to her face left Wu Shanshan, literally fuming with frosty anger, “Song Jia, what did you say? Say that again!”
“You… you… you still dare to argue with me?” Song Jia, taken aback by Wu Shanshan’s intimidating display, nervously took a step back. Soon, she started to make a fuss. “Everyone, judge this for yourself! This Wu Shanshan stole my jade bracelet, and she dares to scold me now. Isn’t she a scumbag? Isn’t she trash?”
Song Jia held an exquisitely crafted jewelry box in her hand.
“Yes, just now, while we were with Song Jia, in the rest room, we found a jewelry box in Wu Shanshan’s locker that had a jade bangle in it. This was a birthday gift to Song Jia from her boyfriend. Why would this jade bangle be in Wu Shanshan’s locker?” one of Song Jia’s sidekicks glibly retorted.
With that, the surrounding crowd figured out the situation.
Wu Shanshan stole Song Jia’s jade bracelet! “Damn it, such a beautiful car model is actually a thief.”
“Seriously, never judge a book by its cover.”
“Yes, being a car model only pays so much. If you casually steal some valuable things, it means you can afford to slack off for a few months.”
“Ah, people these days, they’ll do anything just for money. Where’s the moral bottom line? Besides, theft is a crime.
“Song Jia, you’re framing me!” Wu Shanshan was absolutely livid.
Due to her volatile temper, Wu Shanshan had a tense relationship with many other car models at the car show. This was particularly the case with Song Jia, with whom she had even had a quarrel.
Wu Shanshan had not stolen the jade bracelet, it was clear that Song Jia was framing her today.
That’s not all; with such a scene, Wu Shanshan’s current job as a car model was almost certainly over!
worse, if her reputation was ruined, Wu Shanshan would find it difficult to return to work anymore.
‘Shanshan, calm down, calm down, you must not resort to violence, or you’ll never be a cop again…’ Wu Shanshan suppressed her desire to knock Song Jia to the ground.
Wu Shanshan shot a glance at Huang Xiaolong who was grinning from ear to ear, ‘No way? Could this guy really be my bad luck charm? As soon as he shows up, I encounter misfortune and lose my job?’
“Ahem… Alright, Jia Jia, don’t be so pushy. Let me say it.” The boyfriend of Song
Jia, the neatly dressed thirty something, stepped forward. His eyes surveyed
Wu Shanshan’s full and wonderfully proportioned body; a greedy, lewd expression seeped into his gaze. He swallowed hard.
“You’re Wu Shanshan, right? Let me explain. This jade bracelet was something I bought from the island during a business trip, a birthday gift for Jia Jia. It’s not expensive, just 180,000. The receipt is still with me. But yesterday, Jia Jia said the bracelet went missing. Today, it turned up in your locker…” The man sneered. “The bracelet isn’t worth much. I believe, Wu Shanshan, you didn’t mean to… uh… steal it…”
As he spoke, he casually drew a car key from his bag and began to play with it.
The onlookers immediately recognized it. Some even gasped, “It’s a Bentley car key! He’s surely loaded! No wonder he says the 180,000 jade bracelet isn’t valuable… Wow, only real big shots can show such high-profile flare.”
At that moment, Song Jia looked as proud as a peacock, puffing out her chest, glancing around as if to suggest – see how awesome my boyfriend is!
The man continued, “That is, Wu Shanshan, just now, Jia Jia was insisting on calling the police, but I stopped her. I don’t want to ruin you. I do understand a bit about the penalty for theft. Ha-ha, theft of a particularly large amount, over 150 ,ooo, is punishable by life imprisonment… My bracelet, 180 ,ooo. It’s clearly stated on the receipt.”
The man’s tone clearly had an element of threat!
