After the True Heiress Travels Back-Chapter 84: Why He Got Beaten Up

Shi Yaoguang looked at Shi Yiqing with a face full of disappointment, her tone helpless yet certain, "Did Quan Sicheng send you to seek justice for him?"

Shi Yiqing flatly denied, "Not at all! I can’t stand the things you’ve done, and I just think it’s not fair to Brother Sicheng."

"Oh? So you think Quan Sicheng has been wronged under my hands, and despite the risk of a rift between sisters, you still want to come to me to demand an explanation for his sake?"

Shi Yaoguang spoke in a very casual tone.

Shi Yiqing instinctively felt that something was off.

But she couldn’t pinpoint the problem.

After thinking it over, she still stuck to her original purpose.

"Don’t think you can fool me with your sweet talk!"

Her eyes widened, relentless, "Brother Sicheng hasn’t provoked you recently, has he? Why on earth did you beat him up like that for no reason?"

Upon hearing this, everyone grew curious.

They wanted to know just how Shi Yaoguang had beaten someone up.

At that moment, everyone looked at them with curiosity.

Shi Yiqing glared fiercely at Shi Yaoguang and then took out her cellphone.

In front of everyone, she brought up the photo album.

In the album, there was a picture of Quan Sicheng shirtless, lying on a hospital bed.

There were ten bloody whip marks embedded on his back.

Shi Yaoguang had not been particularly gentle, and after the medication, the scars looked even more conspicuous.

Shi Yiqing ostentatiously rotated the photo for everyone to see, and after making sure everyone had a look, she confronted Shi Yaoguang again, "What explanation do you have now?"

"Do I need to explain?"

Shi Yaoguang shrugged her shoulders, with a dismissive posture, "With such an embarrassing incident, I thought he would hide it at all costs. I’m surprised he still had the face to ask you to seek justice for him."

Shi Yiqing said subconsciously, "I came on my own accord. If Brother Sicheng gets beaten up by you like that, even if he himself doesn’t mind, I cannot stand by and allow it!"

"Hmm..." Shi Yaoguang stroked her chin, sizing her up with her eyes, "Before you sought justice for him, did you ever consider one question?"

"What question?"

"Why did I beat him?"

As soon as Shi Yaoguang’s words fell, Shi Yiqing spoke with certainty, "Of course, it’s because of our affairs that you bear a grudge!"

Shi Yaoguang clicked her tongue, "Even if you think too highly of yourself, don’t take me for granted."

"What happened between him and me is already a thing of the past. If I really were narrow-minded, I wouldn’t have let you prance around in school. I would have crushed you with one foot."

She frankly expressed her mindset, "You both disgust me so much, and I haven’t even made a move. It’s simply because I didn’t consider you worth my attention."

"You—don’t think that by saying this, I’ll believe you!" Shi Yiqing clung to what she called evidence, "If you really didn’t care at all, why would you beat Brother Sicheng into such a state?"

"Still the same answer."

Shi Yaoguang crossed her arms over her chest, her tone casual, "Why did Quan Sicheng get beaten?"

Shi Yiqing stuttered, unable to respond, "This... how would I know? You won’t admit to my suspicions."

She firmly suspected that Shi Yaoguang had done it on purpose. As for other reasons, she really had no clue.

Shi Yaoguang patted her shoulder, speaking earnestly, "That’s why, when choosing a man, you really need to open your eyes wide."

"Look at you, you’re willing to write off your sister for him. What has he done for you?"

"Not to mention getting drunk late at night outside, he was also nearly mistaken for a duck..."

She had only gotten halfway through her sentence when she was met with disbelief from everyone.

What did Shi Yaoguang say?

Quan Sicheng got drunk late at night and was nearly forced into prostitution?

This statement could actually be deeply understood.

It all depends on whether one is willing to understand.

Rumors had circulated before that Shi Yiqing had witnessed marks of ravishment from other men on Quan Sicheng’s body.

Of course, there weren’t many who took these rumors seriously.

But there’s no smoke without fire.

Now that they thought about it, it seemed there had been early signs that Quan Sicheng was interested in men.

Furthermore,

Shi Yaoguang mentioned that Quan Sicheng went out to drink away his troubles and almost got mistaken for a male escort.

Was this assumption subjective, or... embellished?

Could it be that Quan Sicheng couldn’t endure the loneliness of the night and went out seeking sexual adventures?

And what if he happened to be seen by an elder in the household? To cover up the shame of his preference for men, he might have concocted a lie to make the situation seem less terrible.

The more they thought about it, the more everyone felt there was a ring of truth to it.

Wasn’t it obvious?

Indeed, Quan Sicheng really did like men.

However...

Everyone’s gaze fell on Shi Yiqing, recalling that Quan Sicheng had apparently also had an affair with her.

So, he must be bisexual.

When it came to wild speculation, the gossipmongers were always well supplied.

And there, in a few words, everyone had imagined an entire drama.

As for Shi Yiqing, she was distraught.

When she found out that Quan Sicheng hadn’t come to school that day, she contacted him via WeChat.

After learning that Shi Yaoguang had beaten Quan Sicheng, she rushed to Shi Yaoguang’s side, wanting to seek justice for Quan Sicheng.

Who would have thought that things would turn out this way? ƒгeewёbnovel.com

With regret, Shi Yiqing couldn’t help but wonder what was going on with Quan Sicheng.

He was fine, so how did he end up entangled with another man again?

Could he really be bisexual?

Shi Yaoguang was unaware that her rash actions had already made the female lead, Shi Yiqing, begin to doubt Quan Sicheng.

Curiously, she glanced at Shi Yiqing and asked, "Before you came to me, didn’t you ask him why he got beaten up?"

She claimed curiosity, but she made no attempt to hide her eagerness to see a spectacle unfold.

Shi Yiqing bit her lip, "Baseless accusations! Don’t think you can smear Brother Sicheng’s name with just a few careless words!"

Shi Yaoguang sighed, "It seems you won’t shed tears until you see the coffin."

"Very well, if you want evidence, then I shall satisfy you."

Her certainty was such that it made Shi Yiqing reconsider.

What she said, it couldn’t actually be true, could it?

If it was true, and Shi Yaoguang provided evidence, wouldn’t she be the one pushing Brother Sicheng into the abyss?

With this in mind, she dared not persist stubbornly.

Facing Shi Yaoguang’s inquiring look, she deflected insincerely, "I didn’t come to confront you today! Even if Brother Sicheng has done something wrong, you can’t resort to violence out of personal spite."

The onlookers: "..."

That topic change was too abrupt!

Everyone was slightly hesitant at first, but seeing Shi Yiqing’s reaction, they couldn’t help but entertain some thoughts.

What Shi Yaoguang said, it was probably true.

Didn’t you see that Shi Yiqing didn’t even dare to confront her?

They had even begun to imagine how Quan Sicheng might have tried to extricate himself after being caught.
