Chapter 234 You took a picture of me without my permission?!
Chapter 234 You took a picture of me without my permission?!
"You're not asleep?" Yu Yuetong's voice was soft, with a hint of probing.
Qin Reng turned around and looked at Yu Yuetong with a complicated expression.
"I was just about to go to sleep," he said casually.
Yu Yuetong walked into the room with two bottles of water in her hand. She handed one to Qin Reng. "I have mouth ulcers and my tooth hurts," she said with a pained expression. "I was looking in the mirror in the bathroom just now, and it hurt so much that I almost screamed."
Qin Reng took the water and glanced at Yu Yuetong. "Mouth ulcers? Are they serious?"
Yu Yuetong shook her head. "It's not serious, it just hurts a little." She paused, then added, "Ji Momo called me just now."
Qin Reng frowned. "What did she say?"
Yu Yuetong pouted, "What else can she say? It's just the same old divisive stuff. Saying I protected you on the street today, saying she wants to be friends with me and stuff. It gave me goosebumps."
She unscrewed the cap on the water bottle in her hand and gulped down a large mouthful. "But don't take what she said to heart. She just wants to see me make a fool of myself and wants me to argue with you."
Qin Reng looked at Yu Yuetong with a deep gaze, "And what about you? What are your thoughts?"
Yu Yuetong paused for a moment, then laughed. "What can I think? My tooth hurts, I'm so sleepy, all I want to do is sleep." She yawned. "I have to go to the company tomorrow to deal with those old men."
Qin Reng didn't speak, but just stared quietly at Yu Yuetong.
Yu Yuetong felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze and reached up to touch her face. "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something dirty on my face?"
Qin Reng shook his head. "No." He paused, then said, "Ji Momo said you want to be friends with her?"
Yu Yuetong blinked. "Yeah, what's wrong?"
Qin Reng's expression darkened further. "Why?"
Yu Yuetong sighed, "Oh dear, didn't I tell you? I wanted to see what she was up to. The way she acted on the street today, it was obvious she was trying to stage an accident. If I don't protect you, what if she tries to take advantage of you? Your reputation will be completely ruined then."
Qin Reng sneered, "When has my reputation ever been ruined?"
Yu Yuetong rolled her eyes. "Please, brother, you're a married man now. If any scandalous news gets out, it'll have a terrible impact." She paused, then lowered her voice and said, "Besides, if she really likes you, wouldn't I be doing her a favor?"
Qin Reng's face instantly turned ashen, and the veins on his forehead throbbed. "Giving someone a chance to do something good? You're quite generous, aren't you?"
Yu Yuetong chuckled and shamelessly moved closer to Qin Reng, "I'm doing this for your own good. Look, if I become good friends with Ji Momo, she'll definitely protect me. Then, won't I be able to do whatever I want at the company?"
Qin Reng shoved her face away and took a step back in disgust. "Protecting you? You're dreaming! If she really becomes your friend, who knows what she'll do to you."
Yu Yuetong shrugged dismissively. "So what if she schemes? We'll deal with whatever comes our way. I, Yu Yuetong, am not so easily bullied." She paused, her eyes darting around, and added, "Besides, what if she really falls in love with me? Wouldn't I be irresistibly charming then?"
Qin Reng scoffed, "Unbeatable charm? I think you're just unbeatable insane."
Yu Yuetong pouted, "Tch, you don't understand. These days, who doesn't have a hidden romantic streak? Maybe one day, I'll meet my Mr. Right..."
"Enough!" Qin Reng interrupted her, unable to bear it any longer. "Yu Yuetong, if you keep talking nonsense, believe me, I'll throw you out!"
Yu Yuetong immediately shut her mouth, obediently walked to the bedside, lifted the covers, and crawled in. She lay on her side, blinking at Qin Reng, "Are you angry?"
Qin Reng took a deep breath, trying to calm his anger. "Go to sleep!"
Yu Yuetong obediently closed her eyes, but after a while, she secretly opened them a crack, looking at Qin Reng's back with a sly smile on her lips.
In the darkness, Qin Reng lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Yu Yuetong's words echoed in his ears, making him feel irritated.
Does Ji Momo really like Yu Yuetong?
The thought flashed through his mind, but he quickly dismissed it.
impossible.
A woman like Ji Momo is so scheming, how could she possibly like Yu Yuetong? She must have another purpose in getting close to Yu Yuetong.
Thinking of this, Qin Reng frowned even more deeply.
He must figure out Ji Momo's true intentions as soon as possible in order to protect Yu Yuetong... and himself.
Suddenly, a faint sound came from the doorway.
Qin Reng suddenly opened his eyes and looked warily toward the door.
The door was slowly pushed open, and a figure appeared in the doorway...
Yu Yuetong!
Qin Reng almost couldn't help but curse.
What kind of trouble is this woman up to now?!
Yu Yuetong tiptoed into the room, holding a cell phone, and furtively approached Qin Reng.
"What are you planning to do now?!" Qin Reng asked through gritted teeth, his voice low.
Yu Yuetong was startled and almost dropped her phone. She stuck out her tongue and whispered, "Shh! Don't make a sound! I'm going to show you something good."
Qin Reng sat up, looking at her impatiently, "What good stuff?"
Yu Yuetong mysteriously pointed her phone screen at Qin Reng, "Ta-da! Look!"
The screen displayed Qin Reng's gloomy face from just moments before.
Qin Reng was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was a photo that Yu Yuetong had secretly taken when he wasn't paying attention.
"You took pictures of me without my permission?!" Qin Reng's voice rose eight octaves, almost lifting the roof off.
Yu Yuetong quickly covered his mouth, "Keep your voice down! Don't wake Mom!" She lowered her voice and chuckled, "This photo is really good, it captures your best expression."
Qin Reng was so angry he almost snatched the phone and deleted the message. "Yu Yuetong! Aren't you bored?!"
Yu Yuetong blinked and said innocently, "Oh, I just wanted to see you get angry. You're usually so cold, it's rare to see you with such a wide range of expressions."
She paused, then added, "Look, you're kind of cute when you're angry."
cute? !
Qin Reng felt like he was about to explode with anger.
Is this woman out of her mind?!
He took a deep breath, trying to stay calm, and said, "Delete the photos."
Yu Yuetong shook her head, "I won't delete it! This is my evidence. If you ever bully me, I'll post the photo on my WeChat Moments and let everyone judge."
Qin Reng sneered, "Are you sure you want to send it?"
Yu Yuetong shrank her neck and said somewhat unsure, "Uh... I'm not sure."
Qin Reng snatched the phone, quickly found the photos, and deleted them.
