The questions from the reporters came incessantly.
Lu Manman looked down. She looked so petite and helpless.
Mo Yuanxiu suddenly strode forward and shielded her behind him.
The reporter was stunned and looked straight at him.
Mo Yuanxiu’s expression was dark as he spoke, and he appeared as arrogant as ever. “I bumped into Miss Lu during a meal and politely sent her back. Is there a problem? Don’t you reporters have ordinary friends?!”
The reporters were a little embarrassed.
Everyone knew that Mo Yuanxiu was a terrible man. He was rude and arrogant to everyone, so no one willingly came into contact with him.
“But you guessed right,” Mo Yuanxiu said. “I’m planning to pursue Miss Lu Manman. Wen Yun didn’t treasure her, and that’s because he’s not lucky enough! From now on, I’m going to pursue Lu Manman!”
“Mr. Mo.” One of the reporters mustered his courage. “What you mean by pursuing is to build a relationship, not…”
“Of course not!” Mo Yuanxiu said slowly. “As long as Lu Manman agrees, we can get married right away. I will give Lu Manman twice the amount that Wen Yun couldn’t.”
The reporters were stunned.
They looked at each other, at a loss for words.
Although Mo Yuanxiu was usually nonchalant toward the reporters and would even give them a stern look, he had never directly answered their questions about his relationship. Now that he had put it so plainly, the reporters were left speechless.
“If there’s no problem, move aside,” Mo Yuanxiu said angrily as he escorted Lu Manman into her house.
The reporters watched on.
After sending her off, he got into his car. The reporters retreated, and the car drove off.
What had happened just now?!
When they snapped back to their senses, they realized that this was going to be another earth-shattering headline tomorrow!
…
At noon the following day, Lu Manman opened her eyes, feeling refreshed.
When she faced the reporters last night…
Her chemistry with Mo Yuanxiu had been beyond her imagination.
Mo Yuanxiu seemed to know exactly what she was thinking and trying to achieve!
Was it a blessing or a curse to be playing with such a person?
She got off her bed and slowly took a shower before heading downstairs with her phone.
The weather was nice today, and she’s in a good mood. She sat at the dining table and ate the breakfast the servants had prepared.
She only turned on her phone after breakfast.
The moment she turned on her cell phone, countless text messages flooded in.
As if she had expected this, she read the messages calmly and continued with her breakfast.
After a while, her cell phone finally stopped ringing. Lu Manman flipped through the pages. There were missed calls from Wen Yun, missed calls from Gu Xin, and text messages from Wen Yun urging her to pick up.
She put down the phone and finished her breakfast nonchalantly. After she was done, she took her cell phone and headed to the balcony on the first floor. She sat on the swing and made a call.
It rang once, and the call was picked up.
“Manman, why did you take my call only now?!” Wen Yun could barely mask his anger.
“I overslept.”
“You met with Mo Yuanxiu last night?! Do you know what the media is saying about you now? Why did you switch off your cell phone while you were sleeping?!” Wen Yun was getting angrier and angrier.
Could he no longer pretend to be polite?!
