371 No One Is Allowed to Bully Her Except Me 4 (1/2)
”I knew it, sisters are never trustworthy,” Long Wenlun lamented with a look of disappointment in his eyes.
Long Xiaoxi ignored his silly tantrum and said to An Youqing softly, ”Brother Youqing, I'll sleep with you tonight.”
Long Xiaoxi hugged An Youqing tightly while wrapping her legs around his body like a koala. Although he was much taller than her, he still found it rather challenging to support her weight.
However, An Youqing continued to carry her with all his might.
”Xiaoxi, I'd like to go back to my room to sleep.”
”Brother Youqing, I want to go with you…”
”Xiaoxi!” Long Wenlun snapped angrily.
Noticing that her brother was getting upset, Long Xiaoxi had no choice but to get down and wave An Youqing goodbye. ”Goodnight, Brother Youqing.”
”Goodnight.”
Long Wenlun waited for An Youqing to leave the room before locking the door from inside. He then began disciplining his sister on behalf of his parents.
”Mind you, you're a girl. Why don't you know how to stay reserved?”
”What does it mean to stay reserved, Brother?”
”It means… I don't know what it means, but it's what Mommy always says. Didn't Mommy tell you to keep an appropriate distance away from boys?”
”But, Mommy allowed me to sleep together with Brother Youqing last time!”
”…”

Just as Jin Qingyan and An Xiaoning were about to go to bed at eight o'clock in the evening, Fan Shixin came knocking on their door all of a sudden.
”Young Sir, bad news. Your father's relationship with Chi Rui'er has been exposed on the media. The news have even made it to the headlines. It seems like someone was behind this.”
Jin Qingyan opened the door immediately and snatched the tablet from Fan Shixin's hands to peruse the news on the screen.
Jin Qingyan was filled with immense rage. Although he had expected for there to be such a day, he did not expect it to arrive so soon.
It was so soon and sudden that he did not even have enough time to prepare himself.
An Xiaoning put on her home slippers and got out of bed to have a look. To her astonishment, the photos were extremely scandalous and graphic, though they were not exactly explicit.
The matter would surely stir up a commotion and cause a public uproar. The Jin Corporation would definitely see a plunge in stocks on the market the next morning.
Jin Qingyan immediately gave Mr. Jin a call.
Before he could even speak, Mr. Jin hurriedly explained, ”Rui'er misplaced her phone. That's why those photos were leaked.”
”Don't you understand what's going on? This entire matter was a plot planned by Chi Rui'er and the person she's in cahoots with. That person could very likely be my half-sister from another mother!”
”How could Rui'er possibly gang up with someone else to do something like that? She's only going to be publicly embarrassed when it goes out to the media,” Mr. Jin said in puzzlement, unable to process what was happening.
”Her being humiliated is nothing compared to your reputation being tarnished. The only thing we can do now is to send you to the hospital immediately. I'll contact the hospital to make the necessary arrangements. I'll hold a press conference to clarify this matter tomorrow morning. When the reporters question you about this, choose to remain silent at all times. From now onwards, cut off all ties with Chi Rui'er!”
”I don't think I should do that. Rui'er is a victim herself.”
”I can only restrain you with my own ways then,” Jin Qingyan snapped, boiling with fury at how thick in the head his father was.
Jin Qingyan ended the call and ordered Fan Shixin to take Mr. Jin to the hospital immediately and to guard him round the clock. He also confiscated Mr. Jin's mobile phone and cut off all communication between him and the outside world.
Noticing that Jin Qingyan was getting dressed, An Xiaoning asked, ”Where are you going?”
”To look for Chi Rui'er and have a talk.”
”Why are you looking for her? Let me go instead,” said An Xiaoning as she got dressed too.
