Su Wanwan thought things between her and Pei Munian were definitely over. However, she didn’t expect that… three days later, a huge piece of news about both of them would make the headlines and cause an uproar in the city!

Three days later, it was a weekend. Su Wanwan didn’t have to go to work and her grandfather had gone out for tea with his friends. It was a rare occasion for her to have no early morning commitments so she was planning to sleep in, but her phone started ringing out of the blue.

Her brows knitted together. Groggily, she stretched out her hand and fumbled around to hang up the phone. However, within a few seconds, the phone began ringing again and it seemed like it wasn’t going to stop till she picked up the call.

The ringing kept disturbing Su Wanwan till she couldn’t sleep. Reluctantly, she opened her eyes, picked up her mobile phone, and answered the call. “Hello, who is this?”

“Sister Wanwan, there’s trouble!”

Xiao Mei’s anxious voice came through the phone. “The incident of you and President Pei being in the hotel that day has been exposed!”

The incident of me and President Pei…?

Su Wanwan was befuddled by her abrupt sentence and couldn’t react immediately. But after just a second, she realized what Xiao Mei was saying. Her heart skipped a beat.

Clutching the phone tightly, her voice quavered uncontrollably as she said, “What do you mean… exposed?”

“All the headlines today are about both of you, saying that you approached President Pei’s room in the middle of the night and spent the night with him then came out of the room looking disheveled the next day…”

Before she finished listening to what Xiao Mei was saying, Su Wanwan had already lost the strength to hold onto her phone. The phone slipped out of her hand and crashed onto the ground.

“Hello? Sister Wanwan? Are you still there? Hello?”

Su Wanwan sat stiffly on the bed for a while, shaking her head in disbelief. Then she suddenly thought of something. She hurriedly flung the quilt off and got out of bed. Without wearing any slippers, she rushed out of the room barefooted.

While running down the stairs, she shouted, “Nanny Li, Nanny Li!”

The maid, Nanny Li, hastily came out of the kitchen. When she saw how panicked Su Wanwan looked, she was shocked and hurriedly asked, “Young Miss, what’s the matter? Why aren’t you wearing any shoes?”

Su Wanwan wasn’t concerned about answering her. She simply barked out an order, “Bring me today’s newspaper, hurry!”

Although Nanny Li didn’t understand what was going on, she still nodded immediately and said, “Yes, Young Miss. I’ll go and fetch it now.”

Su Wanwan spread out the newspaper. True enough, the headline was about her and Pei Munian spending the night at the hotel. The article took up a whole two pages. The headline was even more shocking. Printed in a large red font, it wrote, “The Pei Corporation’s Crown Prince has finally been taken. One night of romantic passion with the young lady of Su Corporation.”

There was a photo of her looking like a complete mess as she walked out of the hotel room. There was also a photo of her and Pei Munian making out passionately on the bed, taken through a small gap in the curtains. Although the picture was slightly blurry, the photos of her entering and exiting the room were extremely clear.

Su Wanwan slumped weakly on the sofa. She stared at the newspaper blankly, unable to believe everything before her eyes.

How could the events of that day have been photographed? How?

Su Wanwan was still in a daze when Nanny Li walked over with her mobile phone and said to her, “Young Miss, your phone keeps ringing. Do you want to take the call?”

Su Wanwan blinked. She took the phone from her distractedly and glanced at her phone screen. Her hands trembled uncontrollably and she nearly lost her grip on the phone.

The call was from Pei Munian…

He must’ve seen today’s news. What must he think now? Will he think that I’m the one who exposed this piece of news? Is he calling to condemn me?
