Chapter 100 Scandalous Photos (1/2)

Eva loathed Xin Qing very much. In bed, Randa was an outright sadist, and Eva had allowed him to abuse her body just so she could secure her spot at CK. Even now, she could still feel the soreness down there. After that came the sudden news about Xin Qing's diamond mine. Eva knew all along that there was more to Xin Qing's background than meets the eye. What she did not see coming was for Randa to change his mind just like that. Randa had kicked Eva to the curb.

Eva also knew that she had got on Xin Qing's bad side from the start, which was why CK would not want to recruit her anymore. Today, she had come here on purpose. She had heard from the people in the academy that Xin Qing was a married woman with a child, so she had decided to come here and see for herself.

She had expected Xin Qing's husband to be an old man, not someone this young. This discovery unsettled her even more.

Such was human nature. Most tragedies were the result of one's own knowledge and awareness, or lack thereof. People would fail to recognize their own place, which led them to various delusions that involved taking over and replacing the position of others. They were completely unaware that such actions would lead to their own demise. In the end, they would fall to their death and face utter destruction, so much so that not even their corpses would remain.

”Bring it here,” Ying Qingcang told Ah Che, who was standing beside the car.

Swiftly, Ah Che handed a leather envelope to Ying Qingcang. Ying Qingcang hurled the envelope at Eva's face. Feeling strange, Eva opened it. A stack of photos fell out, and Eva's expression changed the moment she saw them.

The photos were snapshots of Eva's sexual activities with various men. Panicking, Eva picked up a few of them and looked. Immediately, her face grew paler. Those few were from the time when she had seduced men of status, all of whom were married. Those men would play with her from time to time, and they would often lavish her with little gifts.

If their wives ever found out... Eva could not even imagine the consequences that awaited her.

Her future and her entire life would be ruined.

”You... How did you get these?” Eva asked. After that, something flashed in her eyes, and she stared at Xin Qing. ”It was you, wasn't it? You've been trying to set me up all along!”

Ying Qingcang looked at the woman in disgust. ”As if she has the time and energy to scheme against you. You've overestimated yourself,” Ying Qingcang said, wrapping an arm around Xin Qing and kissed her cheek. When he felt the body in his arms growing stiff, he angled his head and whispered to Xin Qing, ”I'm helping you to get your revenge. I think I deserve a little reward!” After that, he gave her another kiss.

Xin Qing pressed her lips together and said nothing, though the grinding of her teeth was pretty much audible at this point.

”But I can't stand by and watch someone else bully my woman!” Ying Qingcang told Eva. ”So, since she doesn't have time to deal with you, that responsibility falls on me, her husband!” Ying Qingcang smirked. ”I'm now giving you two choices. One, I hand over these photos to a reporter.”

”No!” Eva yelled out in panic before Ying Qingcang could even finish.

Ying Qingcang nodded. ”Well, then I guess you can only choose the second option, then.”

”You... What do you want?”

Ying Qingcang glanced at her. ”Easy. Leave this place.”

”You want me to leave the academy?” Eva shouted in disbelief. ”No, you can't. I swear I'll never give Xin Qing any trouble again. Please, don't make me leave the academy. If you do that, then it'll be all over for me.”

”That's your business,” Ying Qingcang said. He turned around to enter the house with Xin Qing. ”If you're not out of the borders of this country in three days, then you'll have to bear the consequences.”

Eva pounced at him, though Ying Qingcang slammed the door in her face, trapping her outside. Eva pounded at the door like a lunatic while Ah Che silently reached for his phone to call the cops.

”This... haven't you gone too far?” Xin Qing did not feel the need to bring someone to utter destruction.

Ying Qingcang gave her a profound stare. ”My mind won't be at ease with someone like her hanging around you. Especially when you don't have me by your side.”

Something inside Xin Qing's heart shook. She lowered her head and bit her lip. Her emotions would overwhelm her any second now. Then she heard Ying Qingcang's next words. ”You're so stupid and idiotic. I won't be surprised if someone sold you out and somehow got you to count their earnings from it!”

All that touchy-feely emotions vanished instantly...

Xin Qing spun around and headed upstairs. ”This man hasn't changed one bit,” she thought. ”Still as despicable as ever.”

After a week, Ying Qingcang was finally returning to their home country. Ying Qingcang was the one who had suggested it.

”I have to be in England the day after tomorrow,” Ying Qingcang said. He held Ah Sha in his arms as he said his goodbyes to Xin Qing.

Xin Qing did not pay him much attention at all. Instead, she kept peppering Ah Sha with kisses. Ah Sha was still completely unaware of the fact that they were about to part ways. Ah Sha was even laughing as she bit down on her own tiny fist.

”Alright, then. We're going,” Ying Qingcang said, staring at her with cryptic eyes.

Xin Qing nodded. ”This coming Chinese New Year... I'll go back to see Ah Sha.”

”Okay!” Ying Qingcang did not say anything more. He turned around and boarded the plane.

Xin Qing cried all the way home. Even the startled taxi driver thought something horrible must have happened to her. Back home, she remembered Ying Qingcang's words just now. He had told her something about having to be in England the day after tomorrow. Another wave of sadness hit her.

He was no doubt going to see Molly. Those two would probably be married soon. Xin Qing's sob grew louder at the thought. The floodgates opened, and all the emotions that she had kept bottled up for the past few days gushed out along with her tears. After that, she booted up her computer. She needed to vent out to Zhang Mi and Shi Qianqian.

She sent a couple of messages, though none of them were replied. She glanced at the clock and realized that it was still dawn over there.

Xin Qing cast her laptop aside, picked up her book, and began reviewing her notes. She had missed an entire week of class, which meant she had a lot of catching up to do.

Kass approached her the next day at the academy. ”Do you know? Eva has withdrawn from the academy!” Kass told her secretively.
