C14 The Third Party Was Deliberately Taking Revenge

"Stop!" The room fell silent as Ye Tian called for a halt, leaving several onlookers with sour expressions. Were they really spending overtime hours watching two people throw tantrums?

"Where's the vulnerability of an angel in you? Are you actually pleased that the Infernal Messenger has broken your wings?" The photo shoot's concept depicted the Infernal Messenger as dominant, towering over a fallen angel with broken wings.

Initially, it was assumed that Ye Tian was seeking deliberate retribution. Upon hearing the critique, the photographers rushed to review the images on the computer. As it turned out, Ye Ziyan's eyes lacked any trace of the emotion expected of a broken-winged angel; instead, she seemed oddly cheerful.

Murmurs of discontent filled the air as the crew cast resentful glances at Ye Ziyan. Mixing personal vendettas with professional matters was a serious breach of artistic integrity!

They had hoped to cast Ye Tian in a negative light, but the tables had unexpectedly turned on them. Ye Ziyan, unable to retaliate, was forced to swallow her frustration.

The final set of outfits was quite revealing, and Ye Tian had called for several retakes. Since it wasn't officially time to clock out, she didn't deny wanting to give Ye Ziyan a taste of "beauty's icy sting" and a lesson in poetic justice.

Balancing professional and personal interests, it was clear that Ye Ziyan's performance was lacking. Although the photography team was aware of Ye Tian's vengeful motives, no one spoke up. After all, Ye Ziyan had instigated the situation, and anyone would struggle to contain their irritation under such circumstances.

"Stop!" The quality of this batch of photos was visibly the poorest.

Just as Ye Tian was about to call it a day, citing the model's poor condition and suggesting they continue tomorrow, a familiar male voice cut through the air: "Ye Tian!"

Turning around, Ye Tian wasn't surprised to find Gu Qinian, his eyes issuing a clear warning.

Great, her defender had arrived.

It was unclear how long Gu Qinian had been observing, but his displeasure with her was palpable.

"Did you do this intentionally?"

Gu Qinian's question was direct, and he promptly instructed Han Cheng to assist Ye Ziyan with her clothing.

Ye Tian had initially intended to show the man the film to give him an eyeful, but Gu Qinian's accusatory tone got under her skin. She bristled and retorted, "Yes, you've seen it. Why even ask? Are you looking to defend your precious Xiaobao's honor?"

Gu Qinian remained silent, merely pressing his lips together and fixing her with a gaze so cold and menacing that Ye Tian felt a chill run down her spine.

Her fear was undeniable, and recalling their past encounters, Ye Tian's voice wavered, "What now, you're going to hit me again? Let me remind you, there are people all around. Be careful, or your reputation might take a hit!"

Noticing Ye Tian's eyes brimming with tears, Gu Qinian turned away, visibly irritated, yet he couldn't resist issuing a warning, "I know why you're at Liyang. Don't even think about causing me trouble. It won't end well for you."

With that, he strode off to where Ye Ziyan was.

Left alone, Ye Tian sneezed, suddenly remembering she needed to dress warmly.

With Gu Qinian's presence, as a shareholder of New World, the staff couldn't just leave; employees don't clock out while the boss is still around.

Shivering, Ye Tian huddled up, cursing the couple in the car under her breath. She glanced at her watch and the pitch-black sky, realizing she was running out of time to catch the last subway.

Not being close with anyone from New World, she had no idea where she could hitch a ride.

Ye Tian waited, itching to slip away, but she was part of the photography team's gossip circle, always the center of attention wherever she went.

With time to kill, Ye Tian decided to share the finished photos with Shang Yuvyuv.
