Chapter 434: Confess Before Nightfall

She had long roamed this circle with high-handed dominance, relying on her solid background, fearless of any media.

It was just that her temper was too unchecked which was why she had as many true fans as she had haters.

As the saying goes, where lice abound, one does not itch.

She truly didn’t mind adding a few more to her head.

However, before she could retort, a hand suddenly landed on her shoulder.

Nan Jiaojiao came out from behind her, pressed down on her shoulder with a light tap, then stepped in front of that journalist.

If she remembered correctly, this person was the ringleader, the one who asked the most cutting questions.

“What, what do you want to do?”

The reporter panicked and even tried to use a colleague as a human shield.

However, Nan Jiaojiao simply pulled out her phone, “Leave your number.”

“What?”

“You have my number.

Call me before it gets dark and tell me who sent you here and how much money you received.”

The reporter’s pupils trembled violently while feigning composure, “No one sent us here.

We’re asking you questions, and you just need to answer.

What are you doing now, trying to lay hands on us?”

“Am I a criminal?” Nan Jiaojiao’s dark eyes narrowed slightly.

Her aura was formidable.

The reporter stiffened their neck, “But you’ve been impersonating Xiao Nanshan!”

What an accusation.

Did she ever lead half a word towards being Xiao Nanshan?

“Heh.”

Nan Jiaojiao couldn’t be bothered to argue anymore, put away her phone, and turned to leave.

The journalists looked at each other, wanting to follow, but a dozen bodyguards were controlling the situation, and they didn’t have a chance to pursue.

Qu Xiaoxiao knew when to stop, eagerly following behind Nan Jiaojiao and, for the first time ever, took the initiative to open the car door.

“Sister Jiaojiao, ride in my car.

I have something to tell you.”

Nan Jiaojiao glanced at her.

This was perfect, she also needed to ask Qu Xiaoxiao for a favor, so she got into the nanny van.

Xu Tingting didn’t get in the car.

She stood outside, furrowing her eyebrows as she looked at the group of journalists, “Jiaojiao, don’t worry, I’ll talk to Third Uncle Bo.”

Nan Jiaojiao reached out and smoothed the wrinkle between Xu Tingting’s brows, “No need to tell him, just go home and be good.”

“But…”

“I can handle it.”

Nan Jiaojiao gave her a reassuring pill, and Xu Tingting, after a moment’s thought, didn’t insist any further.

She stood there watching the nanny van drive away, then walked back and quickly blocked Ye Shiqing, who was trying to slip away amidst the chaos.

“Was today’s incident related to you in any way?”

Ye Shiqing bit her lip hard, her voice filled with wronged feelings, “I just happened to be at the school gate and saw big sister being harassed.

I wanted to help her.”

“Were you helping or harming her, deliberately saying all those messy things in front of the journalists?

How much more dirt do you want to throw on her before you’re satisfied?”

Nan Jiaojiao was the daughter of the Ye family, a fact known only to a few.

Xu Tingting also discovered this by accident.

The so-called school beauty Ye Shiqing was always targeting Nan Jiaojiao.

Xu Tingting went to ask, and only then did Nan Jiaojiao mention it to her in passing.

She knew that Nan Jiaojiao and the Ye family members were not close.

It was fine when things were peaceful, but some people had to dance in front of her, with behavior that was truly despicable!

Xu Tingting had a famously good temperament, gentle and soft, never having clashed with anyone before.

For the first time, she spoke harshly, “You understand the media well enough, don’t you?

The words you yourself have uttered, you should clarify yourself.

The journalists are still here.

How you should explain it, you weigh for yourself.”

Ye Shiqing clenched her fists, grinding her teeth, “Everything I said was true.”

Xu Tingting said, “I know a thing or two about what’s going on between you and Shen Shichu.”

Ye Shiqing suddenly looked up, “Are you threatening me?”

Xu Tingting laughed, “The affection of childhood sweethearts is quite precious.

It hasn’t been easy for you to clear your name, so don’t ruin it again with your own foolish actions.”
