Chapter 428: Be Set up
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Xi browsed the photos and gave a satisfactory smile. She turned her eyes to Ning Yan who was lying on the sofa snoring and complimented, “Director Ning, no wonder you are so popular! This promotion clip is a masterpiece!”
He Wanyi nodded with a smile. “Yes, he is really strong in this field, much stronger than others.”
Seeing that Ning Yan was sleeping, Tang Xi stood up and said, “Let’s not disturb Director Ning’s sleeping…” She took out a USB disk that she prepared and copied the photos and video into the USB disk. “I’ll send you the photos. Can you release some photos in the Microblog, Sister Wanyi?”
He Wanyi smiled. “Sure. No problem.” Then she blinked at Tang Xi. “You’ve paid me a salary, so you don’t have to thank me.”
Tang Xi smiled. At this time, the doorbell rang. He Wanyi went to open the door. The hotel staff sent them the breakfast they ordered. He Wanyi thanked the hotel staff and brought the breakfast into the room. “Are you going to have breakfast now?”
“Well, I’ll eat it in my room. Otherwise, I’ll feel guilty if Director Ning is awakened by the aroma of the food.” Tang Xi took a look at the computer and said, “The copying still has 40% unfinished. Wait a minute.”
He Wanyi nodded, took a look at Ning Yan who was sleeping on the sofa, walked into the bedroom, took a blanket and covered Ning Yan with it. Tang Xi glanced at her and continued to stare at the computer.
They left the room after copying all the photos and videos into the USB disk. Tang Xi invited He Wanyi to visit her room and the latter smiled. “No, thanks. I don’t want to play gooseberry. I’m going back to my room and take a rest, and then I’ll hang out with my brother at 1 pm.”

When Tang Xi went back to her room, she didn’t hasten to upload the photos to the Microblog but leisurely had breakfast, opened the curtains and began to pick photos from the USB disk. After sending the photos she picked to He Wanyi, she began to choose photos she would release. Gazing at the photos, Tang Xi suddenly felt sad. She pursed her lips when she looked at the photos that she made with the identity of Tang Xi. If it hadn’t been the skin mask Qiao Liang gave to her, she would never have been able to become Tang Xi again…
When Tang Xi reminisced about the past, Tang Xi’s cell phone suddenly rang. It was from He Wanyi. Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and picked up the call. “What’s up, Sister Wanyi?”
“Rourou, we’ve been set up by someone.” He Wanyi sounded worried.
Tang Xi’ s face sank and she asked, ” What happened?”
“Check the Microblog.” He Wanyi said, “We were taken photos by someone with a candid camera when we went into Ning Yan’s room just now.”
Tang Xi felt that her heart missed a beat. No… so there was really someone who hid outside Ning Yan’s room and took photos of them with a candid camera?! Was Director Ning so popular?
“Are they trying to fabricate a sex scandal among us?” If so, that was ridiculous.
“They didn’t take photos of our face but just our backs.” He Wanyi said, “But the one who they tried to set up is not us but Ning Yan. Now there are all rumors about Ning Yan in the Microblog, and they even dug out the old news about him. It must be a long-planned plot.”
Tang Xi scowled and asked, “Does Ning Yan know this? Have you told him about this?”

He Wanyi took a deep breath and shook her head. “No, I don’t dare to tell him. From what I know of him, if he knows this, he’ll surely make a big fuss and can’t fall asleep for days in anger. Now let him have a good sleep. I’ve asked my brother and the others not to tell him about this matter. Now the problem is how are we going to clarify the photos.”
Tang Xi pursed her lips. “Fortunately, we entered his room together and they only took photos of our backs. I’ll investigate who did this.”
He Wanyi asked in surprise, “Can you find out who did this?”
Tang Xi paused. Oh, yes, no one knew she had 008. “No, but Qiao Liang can. I’ll call him and ask him to find out who did this. But it will take some time. I’ll release a post with The Queen’s Microblog account, clarifying for Director Ning. You can also release some posts to clarify for him. As for the people behind this affair, let’s be patient to find out who they are. Once we know who they are, we must make them pay the price.”
She would never take the initiative to provoke anyone, but she would never let off anyone who offended her or her friends. Even if that person had a powerful background, she wouldn’t be scared! The powerful Kloss family was a good example!
Even if she couldn’t handle the situation, Qiao Liang would help her.
“Yes, don’t worry. Let’s take our time.” Tang Xi said and was about to hang up, when she suddenly thought of something. She asked, “Does Ning Yan have any enemies?”
He Wanyi frowned and sighed. “He has too many enemies. Most of his enemies are suspects.”
“Then that will be hard to find a clue from them.” Tang Xi sighed and hung up the call. Then she logged in to The Queen’s account, edited the photos and released a post.
“I just saw a ridiculous post on the Microblog. Miss He Wanyi and I went to Director Ning Yan’s room in the hotel to see the posters that he made for us, but someone took photos of us with a candid camera and claimed that we had sex with Director Ning! That was absurd! I’ll lodge a lawsuit against the detractors! These despicable rumors are simply intolerable!”
“These are the photos that Director Ning made for our company. Our fashion show will be held in three days in Paris Fashion Week. Welcome to watch our show. [Photos]”
Tang Xi took a look at the most searched hashtag list and frowned. As she expected, Ning Yan’s name was on the list.
Obviously they tried to set Ning Yan up. He Wanyi and she were just used as tools against Ning Yan. They happened to be there, so… they got involved in this scandal…
Thinking of this possibility, Tang Xi narrowed her eyes, hurriedly stood up and rushed towards Ning Yan’s room. She arrived at him room only to see two girls stealthily standing at the door of his room. Tang Xi narrowed her eyes and rushed up asking, “Who are you? What are you doing here?”
Seeing her, the two girls dodged her stare and hurriedly turned to leave.
