The man’s eyes lit up when he heard the word “money”.
But at the thought of his employer, he didn’t dare to act rashly.
“Beauty, let me give you a piece of advice. Don’t provoke people you shouldn’t provoke. What happened now is a lesson.” The man told her. He had been hired to harass Hu Shanshan. It was obvious that she had offended someone.
He had been paid to do this job. It would be unethical of him to also receive a bribe from the victim. This kind of honor among thieves he still had.
“Who is it? Who sent you here?” Hu Shanshan forgot that she was naked and asked sternly.
“Think hard. Who have you offended?” The man actually didn’t know who hired him. He got the job through a middleman.
Hu Shanshan thought calmly when she heard that. The only thing she did recently was investigating Ye Xiaomeng.
Could it be Brother He? But if he found out that she was the one who investigated Ye Xiaomeng, he would have confronted her directly.
Besides, the private detective she hired was very discreet. She shouldn’t have been found out so quickly.
So, who sent this man?
Hu Shanshan couldn’t figure it out. She didn’t think that she offended anyone.
“In any case, you’d better watch yourself. Do more good deeds in the future and less immoral things. Otherwise, you’ll have to bear the consequences.” After the man finished, he glanced at her trembling body one last time before he left.
After the man left, Hu Shanshan collapsed on the sofa, clutching her torn halter top.
Her friend walked in shortly after and was shocked to see Hu Shanshan like that.
“What happened?” Hu Shanshan’s friend quickly sat down and hugged her.
Hu Shanshan finally relaxed. She hugged her friend back and started wailing.
“I don’t know what happened either. A man came in, and then…” Hu Shanshan was crying so hard that she couldn’t catch her breath. She did not want to recall what iust haDDened.
Her friend patted her shoulder and comforted her for a while.
Her friend then suddenly remembered her own experience when she came back from the bathroom.
On her way back, she accidentally bumped into someone and apologized. It was a small matter but the other person was unreasonable and got aggressive with her.
She also wondered then why she had run into such a troublesome person. On hindsight, the whole encounter seemed premeditated.
That person simply wanted to hold her back so she couldnt go back to the private room as someone was doing something bad to Hu Shanshan in the room.
Who did Shanshan offend to deserve this? A woman’s reputation was so important.
“You stay here and lock the door. I’ll go find you a shirt.” Hu Shanshan’s friend said when she saw that she had calmed down.
Hu Shanshan looked at her destroyed halter top. She definitely couldn’t wear it anymore so she nodded.
When Hu Shanshan got home, she was worried that her parents would see her, so she sneaked back to her room.
After locking the door, she took off her clothes and went into the bathroom. She then turned on the shower and scrubbed every inch of her body, like she was removing a layer of skin off herself.
The sound of splashing water drowned out her sobs. She was very worried about those revealing photos. If they were circulated, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The next day, Hu Shanshan ran a high fever, possibly due to the long shower or her ordeal at Guilanfang. She was delirious and mumbling nonsense in bed.
Mrs. Hu was very worried. Her daughter was fine yesterday. How did she become like this today? Was she possessed?
Moreover, her daughter kept saying things like “go away”.
Seeing that something was wrong, Mrs. Hu quickly called an ambulance and went to the hospital with Hu Shanshan..
