The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 472

The internet was abuzz, and Shi Ning's reputation was in tatters.

The recently popular Ning Yue Fashion was wiped out overnight amidst last night's scandal.

Rong Dai spent the weekend at home taking care of things and trying to get as much schoolwork done ahead of time as possible.

She needed to do publicity for the Queen from Tuesday to Wednesday, and on Saturday she had to leave for a shoot in the southwest, which would probably keep her away until the end of the month.

Naturally she had to get her schoolwork done ahead of time, and things at the company couldn't happen without Huo Shaoting either, leaving Rong Dai as the only one left at home.

She had just gotten offline from class when she received a message from Qiao Wanzhou. After replying, she went to the kitchen to make some tea to unwind.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

She thought it was Qiao Wanzhou and went to look, only to see Shi Yue on the video with Shi Ning, along with his assistant and two reporters.

She immediately frowned, with no intention of opening the door.

But Qiao Wanzhou and Zhou Jing happened to show up at the door, so Rong Dai could only press the button to open the electric door and let Qiao Wanzhou and Zhou Jing in.

"Or I can help you get rid of them?"

Qiao Wanzhou felt a little guilty. Who could have expected such shamelessness from this grandfather and granddaughter?

Rong Dai glanced at her belly and gently patted it with a faint smile. "No need, I can handle it."

Qiao Wanzhou was a little scared too. After all, no matter how many things were revealed online, it was nothing compared to what Rong Dai had told her.

"Then let Zhou Jing stay with you. It's better to have a man by your side, they'll definitely be more restrained."

She dragged Zhou Jing out.

Rong Dai laughed helplessly. "Have you forgotten about what happened between me and Ji Zheng yesterday? Don't spout nonsense, don't worry."

After watching Rong Dai leave, Qiao Wanzhou hurriedly asked Zhou Jing to contact the security department of the residential complex.

Rong Dai didn't open the electric door and looked at the grandfather and granddaughter through the door.

She used to rather admire Shi Yue, but after Shi Ning's incident, her goodwill had been completely worn away.

Shi Ning would never have had the audacity to be so unruly and out of control today without Shi Yue's doting indulgence.

"Professor Shi."

She uttered his name lightly, without even looking straight at Shi Ning.

Shi Ning had spent a night in the detention center and had only just been brought back this morning.

Although she was unharmed physically, her mental state had clearly been affected. She looked haggard and her eyes contained hostility.

"Rong Dai, could you let us in to talk?"

Shi Yue spoke kindly, making it hard for anyone to bear refusing him.

Rong Dai looked calmly at the people he had brought. The two reporters were consciously filming with their equipment.

"I'm afraid that's not convenient, Professor Shi. My husband doesn't like strangers coming into our home."

"Rong-"

"Shut your mouth!"

Shi Ning couldn't help but want to lose her temper, but was immediately silenced by Shi Yue.

"That's fine too, we can talk here."

Shi Yue compromised. This was better than not seeing her at all.

"Please go ahead, Professor Shi."

Rong Dai knew full well the tricks they wanted to play, but didn't point them out.

"Rong Dai, Grandma Shi knows you're a good girl."

"Ningning has been spoiled by me and acts without thinking things through or considering the consequences. She didn't properly manage the people around her."

"Now, she's learned her lesson. Grandma Shi has brought her here to apologize to you."

Shi Yue spoke heavily, making that sigh seem especially poignant.

When he finished, he signaled Shi Ning to come forward and apologize.

Shi Ning reluctantly walked to the front of the electric door. Looking at Rong Dai's face, she wished she could rip it to shreds!

If it wasn't for her appearance, how could she have gotten into so much trouble?

But if she didn't apologize, there would be no place for her on the internet.

"I'm sorry!"

She said resentfully, staring at Rong Dai as if she wanted to devour her.

Hearing her insincere apology, Rong Dai almost wanted to laugh.

She looked sharply at Shi Yue. "Professor Shi, I don't accept Miss Shi's apology.

"Even if you brought her here to kneel today, I still wouldn't accept it."

"It's not for any other reason. I just want to see Miss Shi completely ruined and with nowhere to turn."

"Since Miss Shi has called me vicious and scheming, then I will live up to that reputation so as not to disappoint your careful planning these days."
