Chapter 416: Another Ripple
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
A reporter walked to Qiao Yu to interview him again. “President Qiao, is it just like what Miss Xia was saying, that you are just alumni?”
Qiao Yu did not look to the reporter but to Xia Ning across him.
Xia Ning was looking at him too. Their gazes collided but it only lasted for a moment.
Qiao Yu turned back to the reporter and said calmly, “Xia Ning was right. We are just alumni. Sending her and Zheng Ziming to the hospital was just out of friends.h.i.+p.”
“Really?” The reporters could not believe him.
Qiao Yu frowned. “Are you saying I shouldn’t have sent Zheng Ziming here to the hospital?”
The reporter heard this and was shocked. How did he get here again? Gosh, there is no way he would dare to say that because it would offend not only President Qiao but also SE Entertainment.
“President Qiao, you really care about your junior alumni,” some reporters followed.
Qiao Yu darted a look at those reporters. “Now that things are clear, you should all leave too. Don’t forget it’s a public s.p.a.ce here.”
Just at this time, the security officers came to kick people out as well. “Everyone, you’ve all been here for an entire morning and news has already made its way to the hospital management. If you don’t leave now, we’ll call the police.”
Even though the reporters were daring, they really did not want the police to get involved. So they left eventually, although still suspicious about what Xia Ning and Qiao Yu just said.
The reporters left and the hallway became empty at once. Xia Ning raised her eyebrows, gazing at the tall and handsome man in front of her.
In fact, she was not sure if Qiao Yu would confirm what she answered. But she was betting, betting to see how determined he was to get her back and if he would want to upset her by this.
The result was, she won.
“Thank you!” Xia Ning nodded at Qiao Yu and was ready to leave.
Qiao Yu looked at the figure who was about to walk by him and said suddenly, “I was not afraid of publicizing our relations.h.i.+p.”
Xia Ning’s pupils shrank. She turned aside to look at the person next to her, and he was looking at her as well. “I just hope you would be willing to do that with me. Xia Ning, this time I’ll wait for your decision.”
Waiting for her decision. Was it because last time, she was waiting for his decision to tell everyone their relations.h.i.+p? But eventually, she was not able to get that. So this time, was he compensating her?
But many things do not work that way! What happened before could not be exchanged by something that happens now.
Xia Ning stared at Qiao Yu. She moved her lips but did not speak. She took back her gaze and walked ahead.
The clarification from Xia Ning and Qiao Yu went viral online in a second.
Many people said they believed them because Qiao Yu and Xia Ning really did not look like a good match.
One was an aloof CEO, while the other was a cold Queen of Scandals. Someone said that two people with similar personalities do not really attract each other. Therefore, they really did not look like a match.
Anyhow, the Internet comments were good. There were a few anti-fans but not bad at all.
“Told you my Lemon is not a gold-digger. You just didn’t believe.”
“I actually think their good looks match. But personality-wise, okay, I can’t even convince myself. But my Lemon is the most beautiful!”
“Seeing Xia Ning clarifying for herself, I couldn’t really not believe. How many actresses in the entertainment circle do not want to marry rich? Thinking about this, why do I feel that President Qiao is not very attractive to Xia Ning? Somehow, I feel bad for President Qiao.”
Just as the Internet was joking about how Qiao Yu and Xia Ning did not look good together, another news broke online.
“Actress X ruins rich businessman’s family, playing cool in front of others and calling others alumni, but behind people’s back, she was nasty and shameless!”
