45 Your business is my business

After setting the time, Ye Beisheng hung up the phone.

Creak–

The door was opened.

Huo Shiting stood outside the door with a cold expression. “Come here.”

Ye Beisheng was speechless.

This man was asking her to go over to his room?

What’s wrong with him in the middle of the night?

Huoshen International works for bastards! They’ve removed her from the competition and she still had to coax the boss of Huoshen International? In your dreams!

Ye Beisheng sat on the sofa without moving while Huo Shiting’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

She had been removed from the rankings, charged with plagiarism, and the entire internet was in chaos, yet she was still calmly looking at her phone?

Wasn’t she a smart woman? Why was she so stupid now?

Huo Shiting didn’t know what was wrong with him. When he saw the comments on Weibo, he only felt a feeling that he had never felt before in his heart.

Almost subconsciously, he was already standing in front of Ye Beisheng’s room. “Please explain.”

Ye Beisheng looked up in confusion. “Explain?”

That’s when she finally realized what he was talking about.

This dog-like man was asking her to explain about the plagiarism!

Oh right, the one who said she plagiarized was Huoshen International, and Huo Shiting was the head of the company. This must be why he wanted her to explain herself.

Ye Beisheng sneered. “Ninth master, don’t you already know? What’s there to explain?”

At this moment, it would be a lie to say that she wasn’t sad. They were a married couple but Huo Shiting was sure that she plagiarized without even asking. What else could she do?

It turned out tha, in his heart, she had already been sentenced to death.

Although Ye Beisheng had told herself not to mind it, she still felt her anger rising when the person closest to her in the world began to suspect her. “Why do you care if I explain or not?!”

“Wow, you think you’re that great and you don’t care to explain to me about this?”

Huo Shiting snorted, ignored her resistance, and entered the room easily.

Ye Beisheng felt as if she was getting challenged. “Didn’t you already think that I was the one who plagiarized? Why are you still asking me for an explanation? I don’t have anything to explain. Only a blind person would think that I copied it. Huoshen International and ninth master are indeed of the same lineage. None of you even looked into it…”

Suddenly, the man grabbed her wrist.

As if he was afraid of hurting her, he didn’t use any force on his dry palm. Huo Shiting raised his eyes coldly. “Since you didn’t do it, are you going to allow them to slander you this way?”

Ye Beisheng was still angry. “You can just scream at me if you want. What does it have to do with you?!”

Huo Shiting’s eyes narrowed. “So, this is none of my business?”

At that moment, Ye Beisheng suddenly felt that this was a dangerous man.

He chuckled and pressed her against the wall, then leaned over.

“Ye Beisheng, your reputation is related to mine. Do you really think that it has nothing to do with me?”

Ye Beisheng’s body suddenly tensed up.

What did he mean by ‘your reputation is related to mine’?

Huo Shiting sighed lightly. “Mrs. Huo, we are now a couple. Did you really think that I will be able to stay clear from this?”

Ye Beisheng had never been cared for like this before. Her voice softened immediately and there was even a hint of grievance in her voice.

“They were the ones who said that I’ve plagiarized. I only found out about it and you came in here saying that I’m embarrassed.”

Huo Shiting’s throat was a little itchy. He pursed his lips and looked away. “I know, I’ll handle it.”

Ye Beisheng suddenly felt a little touched. It doesn’t matter if Huo Shiting was being sincere or not, he had come here immediately and wanted to help her. Although she was Yunchu, this matter would be properly resolved whether Huo Shiting helped or not.

The feeling of being taken to heart by others was something comforting.

As she felt touched, she get easily agitated and once that happens, her brain would go haywire.

Hence, Ye Beisheng did not know why her brain was cramping, but she blurted out, “Ninth master, thank you for being so considerate.”

Huo Shiting, who was about to leave, stopped in his track.

The man turned back indifferently and sneered, “I was indeed being considerate. Mrs. Huo. You’re already so ugly. What will you do if you lose your reputation?”

Ye Beisheng: “…?”
