Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Out of concern for Lu Yanchen, s.h.i.+ Guang had not slept the entire night and was long worn out entirely. Now that she was swarmed with this many people who were bombarding her with questions at the same time, her ears felt as though they were about to burst.
Her vision was darkening.
She truly did not wish to, neither did she have the energy to deal with these reporters. However, their snark questions truly had her feeling irritated.
Taking in a deep breath of air, she wanted to reply when a deep voice suddenly rang out from her right side. It was a cold voice that enunciated every single word carefully, “I’m the princ.i.p.al party of this entire affair. If you’ve got any questions, you should direct them at me.”
It was Lu Yanchen’s voice!
Elated, s.h.i.+ Guang spun around and had barely caught sight of Lu Yanchen when the entire swarm of reporters crowded over.
Similarly, they questioned him snarkily.
“Mr. Lu, what’s going on with Wu Xing’s sudden death?”
“The internet video showed you pus.h.i.+ng him down. Can you explain why you did that?”
“Do you know about the relations.h.i.+p between Wu Xing and Miss s.h.i.+? Is his death related to that affair?”
…
The reporters were swarming like flies as they pushed their interviewing microphones so closely that they were practically about to hit Lu Yanchen. Just as everyone’s attentions were focused on him, a woman popped out of nowhere and rushed toward s.h.i.+ Guang.
“s.h.i.+ Guang!” She was about to strike at s.h.i.+ Guang when her hands were slapped away by the latter’s reflexes. Using the momentum, the woman then gripped s.h.i.+ Guang’s arm and dug her nails deep into s.h.i.+ Guang’s skin. “It’s you! It’s because of you that our coach is dead! You bad woman! You’ll suffer retribution!!”
s.h.i.+ Guang was stunned.
When she caught sight of He Xinnuo gripping her hand, she frowned and flung her hand away. “He Xinnuo, are you crazy?”
“Why aren’t you the one dead instead of our coach? How is a woman like you still alive? It’s you! It’s all because of you! That’s why Lu Yanchen killed our coach!” He Xinnuo was clearly agitated as she gripped s.h.i.+ Guang’s hand again.
This time around, s.h.i.+ Guang was unable to fling her grip away no matter what.
s.h.i.+ Guang did not wish to resort to violence and bash He Xinnuo up to release her hand. After all, there were so many reporters. If she truly did that, who knew how they would link everything to Lu Yanchen again.
This was a critical juncture where he must not suffer any more negative press!
He Xinnuo continued yelling and was extending her arm, about to slap at s.h.i.+ Guang’s ears when she found her hand yanked up in mid-air. Thrown away by a ma.s.sive force peeling them apart, He Xinnuo found herself landing with a thud on the ground.
Raising her head, she found Lu Yanchen already hugging s.h.i.+ Guang deeply in his embrace.
His gaze at her was cold and icy akin to metal daggers that shot right at her heart, sending a jolt of fear into He Xinnuo. But, at the thought of how Lu Yanchen was able to be bailed out despite killing someone, she found a surge of anger rising through her once more.
Sitting on the floor, she shrieked, “You adulterous couple! You’ll suffer your retribution! Don’t think that just because you murdered coach, no one will know that s.h.i.+ Guang is a sl*t! She’s nothing but a used toilet bowl! I’ll definitely watch you guys… rot in h.e.l.l!”
Hugging s.h.i.+ Guang tightly, Lu Yanchen’s eyes brought nothing but a killing intent. He glared at Little Chen and pointed at He Xinnuo in contempt while instructing impatiently, “Twisting facts while making a direct slander to ruin one’s reputation… Sue her for libel!”
