Rebirth: The Fake Young Lady Is A Real Young Lady Chapter 240 – 240 A Tight Slap

240 A Tight Slap

Jiang Xue was overjoyed. As long as Shen Xi knelt and apologized to her in front of all the guests, not only would she be able to clear her name, but she would also be able to humiliate her. Just thinking about it made her excited.

“So what are you two talking about? What picture? If you feel I’m responsible for some crime, shouldn’t you tell me what it’s for?” Shen Xi crossed her arms and asked, her smile never faltering.

“Shen Xi, don’t play dumb with me. Who else would flash a photo like that on the screen other than you? Jiang Xue never thought Shen Xi would feign ignorance, and her anger spiked.

Confused by Jiang Xue’s sudden outburst, Shen Xi innocently asked, “So what is this photo you’re talking about? Tell me, and I’ll see if I remember putting up something like that.”

Jiang Xue did not expect Shen Xi to be so shameless. She was so angry that her face turned red. After a heated silence, she said, “It’s a nude you photoshopped and put on the screen at Grandpa Xiang’s birthday banquet!”

Shen Xi nodded in understanding. She clicked her tongue and asked, “Are you saying I took a nude of you? Ah! Is it because you think I’ve seen you in the nude? Is that why you concluded I must be the culprit?”

When Xiang Cheng heard Shen Xi’s words, he thought of the nude photo he had just seen, and his expression turned unsightly again.

Seeing Xiang Cheng’s dismal expression, Jiang Xue was about to explode angrily. Shen Xi was deliberately going out of her way to embarrass her!

Jiang Xue’s voice grew shrill, a note of hysteria working its way into her words, “Shen Xi, don’t pretend that you don’t know anything. You did this!”

Shen Xi’s brows furrowed in consternation. “I’m sorry, but you’ve wronged me here. I’ve been with Brother Lu the whole night. I didn’t have time to do what you think I did.”

“That’s right,” Lu Lin agreed, “Xixi had been with me all night. She could not have posted that photo. Miss, I think you should mind your words, or I’ll sue you for slander if you continue this nonsense.”

Jiang Xue could not care less about Lu Lin’s threat. Raising her voice, Jiang Xue called, “Security, tie these two up and bring them to the Xiang family’s birthday banquet hall.”

“You’d dare?!” Lu Lin bellowed.

Jiang Xue refused to back down. With arrogance shining in her eyes, she again directed the hesitating security guard to do as she bid, “I’m the heiress of Kunlun Construction under the Jiang family. Do as I say, or I’ll have you fired.”

The security guards looked at one another. When the manager left, he told them not to touch the guests, only to detain them for now.

Jiang Xue’s words caused them to second-guess their duties. After all, Jiang Xue was the young miss of the Jiang family, and her words held weight.

When Jiang Xue noted that those lowly security guards did not follow her orders, she was furious. She pointed at them and said, “Am I being ignored? I’ll give you all one last chance. If you don’t carry out my orders, you all need not show up at work tomorrow!”

Jiang Xue knew she had to resolve this matter tonight, or rumors would spread, and her reputation would take a hit. Hence, she was anxious to settle the matter as soon as possible.

Helpless, the security guards did as they were told and rushed toward Shen Xi and Lu Lin, the latter standing in front of the other to hinder the security personnel.

Just as they approached Shen Xi and Lu Lin, the guards were stopped by a loud cry.

Jiang Xue immediately recognized who it was. It was her father. Her eyes burned, and she turned to greet him, planning on telling him all about Shen Xi’s misdeeds.

However, before she could say anything, her father slapped her.

Jiang Xue staggered, covering her face in disbelief. “Dad? Why’d you hit me? Shen Xi is bullying me. I don’t care if you won’t seek justice on my behalf, but that doesn’t explain why you hit me. Shen Xi has even brought her latest lover to do the same. Why’d you hit for no reason?”

“Shut up!” Xia Chun’s voice, though soft, rang loud and clear.

Xia Chun pulled Jiang Xue to her side, afraid she would say something else to offend Lu Lin.

Jiang Xue was dumbfounded. Why had her mother, who loved her the most, changed?

Even though Xia Chun loved her daughter dearly, a slap in the face was nothing compared to their family’s future.

Jiang Lun picked up his phone and called the hotel manager before handing it to Lu Lin in fear. “Mr. Lu, I’m sorry. My daughter is insensible. We will make sure to teach her better when we return. Hopefully, that will improve her memory,” he said apologetically.

Lu Lin snorted coldly and batted the proffered phone away. “You don’t have to teach her a lesson when you get back. Now is as good a time as any,” he said, not giving Jiang Lun any face.
