Seeing Yuan Ranran’s red eyes, Mother Yuan’s heart ached, but there was nothing she could do about Shen Que. She could only continue to persuade Shen Que, saying, “Xiao Que, regardless of everything, you and Ranran are sisters. No matter what, you shouldn’t frame her like this. If you apologize to her and go online to clarify things for Ranran now, we will forgive you.”

Faced with Mother Yuan’s earnest advice, Shen Que felt extremely amused, “I didn’t do it. It’s useless for you to come looking for me to bear the responsibility.”

“How great, now you dare to talk to us like this. Do you have any manners?” Father Yuan took a step forward, grabbed the phone, and scolded loudly.

Hearing Father Yuan’s words, Shen Que only felt annoyed and hung up the phone with a snap. She simply did not have the heart nor the energy to be bothered by Yuan Ranran’s accusations as well as Father and Mother Yuan’s favoritism. She was not the original Shen Que anyway, and she did not have any feelings for the Yuan Family. She simply wanted to live her life the way she wanted. As for the rest, it was not within her consideration. Facing Shen Que’s refusal to acknowledge their calls or their scoldings, Father and Mother Yuan could do nothing else but continue consoling Yuan Ranran.

After returning to her room, Yuan Ranran stomped her feet angrily and smashed many things before she sat on the bed. Her phone rang just as she did that. When she saw that it was Fan Junchen calling, she adjusted her breathing and picked up the call.

“Ranran, how could this happen? Do you know that if you don’t handle it well, your career will be ruined in the future?” Fan Junchen said immediately.

Sensing Fan Junchen’s reproach, Yuan Ranran faked a sobbing tone and said as if she was choked with tears, “Junchen, it’s not my fault. It was Shen Que who set me up. She found someone to slander me online. That’s why these things happened. She wants to destroy me.”

Hearing Yuan Ranran’s weak and gentle voice, Fan Junchen naturally believed her without a doubt. To begin with, he didn’t like Shen Que anyway. So at this moment, he was even more annoyed with Shen Que for bullying Yuan Ranran in front of him. No matter what, he could not stand and watch as such a thing was going on. He comforted her over the phone, “Ranran, don’t worry. Everything will be fine.”

After hanging up the phone, Yuan Ranran was secretly pleased. Fan Junchen would definitely avenge her. When that time came, she wanted to see how arrogant Shen Que could be!

Shen Que and Yuan Ranran had contracts with Fan Junchen’s company. Now that such a thing had happened, Fan Junchen went straight to the set. When he reached the set, Shen Que was in the middle of filming, so he did not call her. He just stood quietly at the side and watched Shen Que act out the scene.

For a moment, he was in a daze. Looking at Shen Que’s serious look, he suddenly realized that Shen Que was not the same as before.

Because the actors were immersed in the scene, the filming went very smoothly. During the intermission, Shen Que noticed Fan Junchen at a glance. She was not fond of him and did not intend on giving any attention to Fan Junchen. She planned to pretend that she did not know him and walk past him.

However, how could Fan Junchen let her go? Just as she walked past him, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Shen Que’s arm. There were quite a few people on the set. When they saw this scene, all of them looked at the two of them as if they were watching a show.

When Shen Que saw the gossipy looks from the people around, she turned to Fan Junchen and said coldly, “May I ask what matters you have with me?”

“Shen Que, how can you frame Ranran? I want you to go online and clarify this matter this instant. Tell everyone that Ranran is innocent.”

“Here’s another person who came to help Yuan Ranran vent her anger,” Shen Que thought speechlessly. Faced with Fan Junchen’s unreasonable request, Shen Que only felt that all this was like a clown show.. What did all this have to do with them? And what did all this have to do with her? Rather, what did they have to do with her? Why were they here demanding her to do this and do that?
