Chapter 298: Finding a Scapegoat
When I woke up the next day, it was already bright, with the sun high in the sky.
The whole body sore and weak, Gu Tiantian lay on the big bed, staring blankly at the familiar luxurious crystal chandelier for a while.
Then she slowly got out of bed, not surprised at all by Bai Chenyao’s absence.
Dragging her tired and sore body, she went into the bathroom.
After freshening up, she changed into a casual outfit, adjusted her mindset a bit in front of the mirror, and finally walked out of the bathroom with a smile.
She opened the door and saw the beautiful maid waiting with a smile.
"Miss Gu, you’re awake. Would you like to dine in the restaurant or in your bedroom?"
She was all dressed and didn’t want to stay in the bedroom.
"Let’s go to the restaurant!"
Not seeing Bai Chenyao in the dining room, Gu Tiantian felt a sense of relief.
After finishing the meal, Gu Tiantian sat in the dining room for a while before deciding to go out.
"Miss Gu, sir mentioned that if you go out, you should wait for him to return."
Suddenly, Gu Tiantian’s face turned a little pale.
But soon, she returned to her normal expression and nodded.
"I understand."
The beautiful maid looked at her and smiled slightly.
"Miss Gu, if you feel bored, maybe you can watch TV in the living room or take a stroll outside?"
It was when she wandered outside, lost in momentary pride, that all her efforts went to waste.
So, she decisively gave up the idea of going out.
After all, she couldn’t leave this villa, so whether to go out or not didn’t really make a difference.
"I’ll go watch TV then!"
In the living room, Gu Tiantian turned on the TV.
At first, it was a financial channel, which she wasn’t interested in, so she switched channels.
The next channel happened to be entertainment, and just as she was about to change it, she paused at the sight of the images of Li Minghao and Dai Ke’er.
Like in some residential area, probably downstairs of either Li Minghao’s or Dai Ke’er’s place, it was crowded with reporters. Li Minghao was trapped among them, with Yang Hu and a few assistants beside him, speaking loudly with very displeased expressions on their faces.
Unable to outmatch the strength of numerous reporters, they couldn’t get to the nanny van. Eventually, Li Minghao was trapped and had no choice but to start answering the reporters’ questions.
"Mr. Li, there’s a rumor that you cheated on your ex-girlfriend because you were having a secret affair with the company’s actress Miss Dai Ke’er. Is that true?"
"Mr. Li, there’s a rumor that your current girlfriend, unhappy with your ex-girlfriend still clinging to you, drugged her with sweet wine. Is that true?"
"Mr. Li, you and your current girlfriend, Haitian Entertainment’s popular actress Miss Dai Ke’er, were seen at the police station because it was alleged that Miss Dai drugged and framed your ex-girlfriend. Do you have anything to say about this?"
"Mr. Li, it’s said your current girlfriend Miss Dai comes from a very good family background. Did you leave your ex-girlfriend, who came from a humble background, because of Miss Dai’s superior background?"
...
Gu Tiantian watched as the reporters threw question after question at him, Li Minghao’s face becoming increasingly grim.
Especially when asked if he chose to abandon his girlfriend of three years because he was attracted to Dai Ke’er’s family background, his face turned livid, and he couldn’t help but respond.
"These are all my private affairs. No comment!"
Gu Tiantian saw that after Li Minghao spoke, with the help of his assistant and manager, he quickly entered the hallway, disappearing from the cameras.
However, the news report on Li Minghao and Dai Ke’er did not disappear because of Li Minghao’s avoidance, but rather intensified.
It even implicated Haitian Entertainment Company.
