Chapter 230: Chapter 230: I Slept with My Future Husband (2) Chapter 230: Chapter 230: I Slept with My Future Husband (2) The content obliquely mentioned Bai Lingyun expressing regret that Gu Annan, a richly entertained cousin, hadn’t shared with him, and self-mockingly said, “Would you tell your cousin if you went looking for ‘hookers’ or got into fights?”
Such quotations are usually direct quotes.
But what on earth was Bai Lingyun talking about–it sounded like he was taking for granted that Gu Annan’s scandal was true!
Regret? Regret?
Yet she was well aware that even if that line was actually said, it definitely wouldn’t have been the speaker’s original intention, just a twisted guess of the facts.
Besides that article, and the one about checking into a hotel with a new love interest, the other media reports varied greatly.
Some wrote about Bai Lingyun and Tang Na, others questioned Bai Lingyun’s hotel stay, and there were even suggestions that Bai Lingyun was nearly complained about. She wasn’t mentioned in these contents, and in the photos, she was just a background presence.
“Gu Annan…” Lu Wanwan held her phone, her clear and bright eyes curving up, “That… I have something to tell you.”
Gu Annan closed his laptop and looked over at her, his handsome brows slightly raised.
She suddenly felt a bit nervous; the incident had happened so unexpectedly and had been quickly released by the online media, giving her no time to respond.
“You and Bai Lingyun are cousins?” Instead of bringing it up directly, she decided to ease into it with a different question.
If they were relatives, perhaps he would be easier to talk to?
“Sort of, his mother is my aunt. Why are you asking all of a sudden?” He was a bit surprised by the question.
She hadn’t known about this before, and had wondered why, at that private engagement party, she had bumped into Bai Lingyun but hadn’t seen any of Gu Annan’s close friends. It turned out to be because they were related.
“Gu Annan.” Lu Wanwan steadied herself, “Something happened just now that might have caused a not-so-good impact.”
Gu Annan’s expression didn’t change much, just a hint of amusement in his eyes.
“It’s not might, it has already caused a not-so-good impact.”
She handed over the phone honestly.
The news on the phone was the article she had just read, the one about regretting the cousin not sharing his entertaining life.
Gu Annan glanced at it, his dark eyes deepening; except for the photo being a bit glaring, whatever gibberish Bai Lingyun had said, he dismissed it in a blink.
“What should we do? Is the impact bad?” Her gaze was utterly sincere, “I really didn’t know there would be reporters waiting downstairs?”
He tossed the phone back to her casually, “It didn’t mention you.”
Lu Wanwan quickly brought up the article about “one-night passion.”
Her face bore a forced, appeasing smile, “This one seems to mention it more…”
Gu Annan looked, and indeed, his face grimly darkened.
Although he usually didn’t care about any rumors, the woman who’d obviously slept by his side the previous night was inexplicably written as having a “one-night stand” with someone else; seeing those words, he felt extremely displeased.
Lu Wanwan observed him cautiously, feeling Gu Annan’s gaze as if saying she was nothing but trouble.
He dialed a number, his voice thick with displeasure, “Take down that article on Tianyu’s website.”
Not knowing what the other side said, Lu Wanwan saw his brows tighten, and he said sternly, “Go look at it yourself, don’t ask me such questions!”
Tsk tsk, no wonder it was said that his subordinates had a difficult time, always having to guess what he was thinking.
Not clarifying anything and not allowing questions, how was anyone supposed to handle this!
Luckily, she wasn’t one of his subordinates; thinking about how cooking a meal could drive her insane, always having to pretend to know what he wanted to eat, she could profoundly empathize with the hardship of his subordinates.
