"Blanco… Miss Blanco…" Gu Yanfei remembered what exactly had happened before she passed out, and she knew very well what was in store for her after regaining consciousness. There wasn't much choice; after all, she had run into Gu Xiyuan at this banquet.
However, when faced with so many people, especially with nothing but a bra left on, Gu Yanfei still felt ashamed.
She pulled the blanket over herself and noticed that her eyes were reddening involuntarily.
After all, even though her intentions might be harsh, she was still just a little girl.
"Enough already, stop crying." Bai Rongrong was too lazy to waste time on Gu Yanfei's sobs, impatiently interrupting her with, "I'm asking you: Was it Lady Lu who brought you here?"
Bai Rongrong discreetly gave Gu Yanfei a look, but the latter only cried without paying attention.
"Speak up," Bai Rongrong impatiently grabbed Gu Yanfei's shoulders and said to the girl in front of her, "What good does crying do? Tell us what happened so we can help you."
Bai Rongrong softened her voice as she consoled Gu Yanfei, saying, "Come on, tell me. Was it Lady Lu who brought you here? Is there anything improper between Lady Lu and this Mr. Qin?"
Regardless of what Gu Yanfei said at this moment, her reputation was irretrievable. If Lu Qicheng hadn't discovered her presence, she could have escaped with her life intact. But now that he had seen her, if she were to blame the incident on Ye Zhiqiu, not only would Lu Qicheng not spare her, but he would surely investigate thoroughly.
Thus, Gu Yanfei naturally chose self-preservation; at this moment, she wouldn't be stupid enough to follow Bai Rongrong's script.
"No, it wasn't like that…" Gu Yanfei sobbed, "I… I just felt a bit dizzy and wanted to rest for a while. Later, I fell asleep, and after that, I don't remember anything."
"What did you say?" Bai Rongrong turned green with anger. She never expected Gu Yanfei to betray her at the crucial moment when she was most alone.
"Have you lost your mind? Do you know…" Bai Rongrong gritted her teeth as she confronted Gu Yanfei, wishing she could tear Gu Yanfei limb from limb.
Gu Yanfei dismissed Bai Rongrong's hand with a cold gaze and asked, "Miss Blanco, what do you want to say? Is it appropriate for you to storm into this room with a few people like this?"
Gu Yanfei's eyes were red, making her look pitiful. The reporters shook their heads in disbelief; they had always seen Bai Rongrong as gentle and composed in public, but today she seemed to have completely lost it.
"Fine, you…" Bai Rongrong sneered at Gu Yanfei and Qin Jie, "You're all playing me for a fool, right?"
She had promised to cooperate earlier, but now everyone was turning on her, leaving her in such an awkward position.
"Miss Blanco, we think you need to give us a reasonable explanation today," the reporters weren't stupid. They knew exactly what happened that day. They were journalists, not tools for Bai Rongrong's use, so they demanded an answer.
Qin Jie impatiently said to the few people in front of him, "Fine, go deal with this outside. Don’t clutter up the room."
Bai Rongrong dared not offend these individuals; she believed that settling this matter would cost her a lot of money.
