Chapter 139: Served on a Platter (9)

Looking at the big screen, Sheng Dan’s face suddenly changed as she subconsciously turned toward Ling Yuqing. Equally shocked, Ling Yuqing couldn’t believe that she was looking at the photo.

There were three girls in the photo, all wearing elementary school uniforms, ponytails, and naive smiles on their faces. One of the girls was Sheng Dan, and the girl standing next to Sheng Dan holding her arm, was nobody other than Ling Yuqing!

Ling Yuqing did not expect that Ling Tianya would actually get a screenshot of the QQ space. She completely forgot when the photo was taken and couldn’t even recall the name of the third girl.

Because of the screenshot, people at the press conference started to talk among themselves. A minute ago, Ling Yuqing clearly said that she did not know Sheng Dan, but then a photo of the two of them together when they were students emerged. It was obvious that Ling Yuqing and Sheng Dan had just lied.

Why did the QQ username ‘Spiritual Holi Day’ in the screenshot match the username that posted that article on the Internet? If it was said that it was only a coincidence, no one would believe it.

Hearing more and more talking, Sheng Dan’s face started to twitch, and she looked somewhat flustered.

Also noticing the reactions in the room, Ling Yuqing forced herself to remain calm, even when Ling Tao’s questioning look made her almost panic.

“Miss Ling, where is this screenshot from? Was that ‘Spiritual Holi Day’ the same person who posted online? How did you confirm that?” asked a male reporter.

Ling Tianya did not answer the question from the male reporter. Instead, she gave a look to the staff person on the side of the stage who then tapped on the computer. A video appeared on the big screen and started to play.

In the video, a young woman of similar age to Sheng Dan was speaking in front of the camera, “In elementary school, Sheng Dan and I shared a desk. Ling Yuqing was transferred to our school and only stayed for a couple of years. When she was there, she got along quite well with Sheng Dan, but didn’t really hang out with me. Why? Because my family was poor! Sheng Dan didn’t come from a wealthy family either, but she had a relative in the entertainment business who could get her signed photos of celebrities. So, everyone in the class would make friends with Sheng Dan, including Ling Yuqing. Then it was said that Ling Yuqing’s Mom met some rich guy and Ling Yuqing was going to be a princess in a wealthy family. We didn’t really believe it, but she did get transferred soon after that. That photo was taken at a birthday party of Sheng Dan’s. ‘Spiritual Holi Day’ was Sheng Dan’s QQ username. I don’t have Ling Yuqing’s QQ, because she didn’t friend me…”

The woman kept talking in the video, but nobody cared to listen further. Everyone focused their attention on the pale-faced Sheng Dan and Ling Yuqing.

Sheng Dan’s head was spinning. She didn’t expect things to turn out like that. She hadn’t used QQ for ages and even forgot her passcode. She didn’t have QQ on her phone or computer, so there was no way she had paid any attention to something posted on her QQ space a decade ago.

When she posted that article slandering Ling Tianya, Sheng Dan registered a throw-away account. For some reason “Spiritual Holi Day” came to mind which turned out to be a big mistake.

Sheng Dan looked up at Ling Tianya and was appalled by the smile on her face. She understood what that smile actually meant.

It was Ling Tianya saying, “You served yourself on a platter, so don’t blame me!”
