Chapter 388 She Just Wants Money
The other contestants still have to prepare for the finals, so it’s not appropriate for them to say too many bad things about Xu Yi. Even if they do, they should know when to stop and restrain themselves.
"She is quite capable, but she is ranked first, which is too exaggerated..."
Judy cleared her throat and glanced at everyone.
Cassia also smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, it's normal to be in the top ten, but first place is a bit hard to say."
The other contestants pouted their lips, spread their hands, and looked helpless.
Zhou Minglan got excited. "I'm here to accompany you. I don't accept it either. Why am I not even in the top ten, but that bitch got first place... Her husband is the investor, the hidden investor. She can't survive without a man."
At this time, Judy asked, "Minglan, isn't your brother Mr. Zhou also an investor?"
"Of course that's different. My brother is a person who pursues fairness and never leaks questions through the back door. Otherwise, I would have won the grand slam of awards long ago."
Zhou Minglan smiled and took a sip of wine. Judy said, "The Muse Contest is fake?"
"There's nothing her husband can't do, except what you can't imagine. Her man, Song Yanming, is a master, a top-notch master, the kind that is rare in the world..."
Zhou Minglan praised Song Yanming highly, but she also did not forget to harshly criticize Xu Yi. "In order to get her man and make him responsible, she drugged him and forced him to get married when he was pregnant. She would do anything to achieve her goal."
"This... this is too brave."
"She's crazy, my god..."
Zhou Minglan's original intention was to make everyone despise her, but she almost forgot that this was abroad and everyone would only think that Xu Yi was extremely powerful.
Zhou Minglan failed to achieve the effect she wanted. "This is despicable."
Judy shook her head. "No, she is a very courageous girl. I like her..."
Zhou Minglan said a lot, but it was all in vain. Seeing that everyone was praising Xu Yi for his strategy, she was speechless.
"Girls like this have a lot of personality."
“She knows how to work hard in her own direction.”
"Yes, that's right. In front of the person she likes, she knows how to take that step bravely..."
Zhou Minglan quickly said, "She didn't do it because she liked him, she did it for the money."
“Who doesn’t like money?”
"I...I'm starting to like her a little bit. I used to hate her a little bit."
"It seems that we lost to her straightforwardness."
Everyone laughed and said, "I want to be friends with her."
"After the game, I have to have a good meal with her and get to know her better. She must be a very interesting person."
Zhou Minglan was a little speechless, so she had to get up and go to the bathroom.
Damn it, they originally wanted to discredit Xu Yi, but ended up worshipping her.
In the restroom, Zhou Minglan was using the toilet when suddenly a basin of water came out of nowhere and poured down directly over her head.
"what!"
Zhou Minglan screamed, then put on her pants and opened the door.
There was no one outside. She kicked the bucket and walked out angrily.
"Who, who is it? Get out here!"
Zhou Minglan yelled in a shrill voice, "If you have the guts, do it. If you don't, admit it, right? Stop doing these little tricks behind my back... If you have the guts, get out of here!"
Still no one paid attention to her, so Zhou Minglan had no choice but to leave the bathroom and prepare to check the surveillance video.
She could always find out who went in and out, and she would tear the person who played a trick on her into pieces.
"I'm telling you, you hit a wall. I'm in a bad mood right now, and I'm going to make you pay."
As she was walking, Zhou Minglan felt something blocking her feet. She looked down and saw a sticky piece of paper spread out, firmly imprinted on the sole of her foot, merging into one with her sole.
She swung her legs around, trying to kick away, but to no avail.
She lifted her foot and saw a few bright Chinese characters printed on the back of the glue-covered paper: Mouse Trap.
"Who, who did it?"
There was a noisy bar in the lobby, and the music went all the way to the bathroom. Zhou Minglan gritted her teeth and tore off the mousetrap under her feet.
The mousetrap was as steady as an old dog...it almost merged with the sole of her foot.
Zhou Minglan leaned against the wall, gritting her teeth. She couldn't tear the glue between the soles of her feet and the mousetrap. After it separated a little, the densely packed transparent glue stuck back on again.
"Ah! What is this? What is this?"
Zhou Minglan screamed, and at that moment, an Aunt Bai passed by with a broom and saw her.
"Miss, is there anything I can help you with?"
"There's something disgusting stuck to the bottom of my foot, and I can't get it off no matter what I do."
It was torn a little bit, but as soon as I let go, the glue bounced back and stuck even tighter.
"Come with me, I'll help you deal with it."
"OK, thanks."
Zhou Minglan guessed that the aunt was a bar staff, and was supported by the aunt to the door of a room.
She asked, "Where is this..."
"This is where I rest. Come in and I'll help you clean it up."
Zhou Minglan nodded, not noticing that this was a blind spot for surveillance.
She entered the small room and the door of the tin house was immediately closed.
"Ah...ah!"
A sharp voice broke the silence of the corridor, intertwining with the noisy music, but was quickly covered up.
Zhou Minglan had her lips sealed and was tied to a stool, unable to move.
She looked at the masked men in black in front of her in panic, kicking the ground with both feet...
Not only was it useless, but she also kicked over the stool she was sitting on and hit her head on the wall.
The bald man with his face covered laughed out loud, "Hahaha, this is a fool. Such a stupid woman..."
"Do not talk nonsense."
A man's extremely cold voice came.
Zhou Minglan noticed that there was a very tall man standing between the two short men.
I couldn't see his face clearly, but the man's eyes revealed a fierce murderous look...
Zhou Minglan crawled on the ground like a maggot, trying desperately to escape.
Suddenly, the tallest man stepped on her back, and he took out a sharp knife from his pocket and pressed it against the back of her neck.
"Don't move, or I'll kill you..."
Zhou Minglan didn't dare to move. She froze in place and could only maintain the same posture.
At this moment, the sharp knife moved away from the back of the woman's neck. She felt a sharp pain in her scalp. The man in black picked her up and threw her into the corner.
Zhou Minglan's body was entangled with the stool, causing her to bump into the stool and feel severe pain. She lay on her back in the corner, looking completely ungraceful.
"Help me up, I'm in a hurry."
"Yes……"
Zhou Minglan sat on the stool, looked at the man in black approaching her step by step, and shook her head.
"Your hands are so dishonest, so let's start with your hands."
Zhou Minglan's tears welled up in her eyes. She felt desperate and devastated. Who wanted to target her and why?
The next second, the man raised his knife and slashed her little finger nail, and blood oozed out.
"Um..."
Zhou Minglan couldn't make a sound, but the pain almost made her faint.
