Chapter 1440: How Did You Come In?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
She couldn’t help it. Dong Dong understood Su Manman’s preference too well.
Du Lingyang saw that Su Manman had tied up her hair and was bending over to look at the replay with Director Chen Wenhua. He walked over and whispered to Su Manman, “Manman…”
Upon hearing Du Lingyang’s voice, Su Manman frowned and turned around…
Seeing that Du Lingyang was in a half-squat position like her, she frowned and said rudely, “How did you get in?”
Not far away, s.h.i.+ Hanchu, who was removing the cufflinks of his French s.h.i.+rt, had also seen them. He frowned as he looked towards Su Manman and Du Lingyang.
“I have something to ask you. Can we talk for a while…” Du Lingyang asked with a smile.
Su Manman straightened her body and raised her brows. “Do I know Mr. Du well?”
Su Manman’s words were especially harsh. In addition, everyone no longer had a good impression of Du Lingyang after Su Manman revealed the contents of his message to her to the reporters.
If Du Lingyang’s prior explanation could be considered an explanation…
Why was he suddenly looking for Su Manman now?
Did Meng Yuqiao ask him to come?
s.h.i.+ Hanchu turned around and handed the unb.u.t.toned cufflinks to Little Song.
“Brother Hanchu, that Du Lingyang…”
Before Little Song could finish, he saw that s.h.i.+ Hanchu had already stridden towards Su Manman.
Du Lingyang straightened his back with Su Manman and smiled awkwardly. “I really have something to ask you. I heard from Yuqiao that you told her some things about Mingzhu when she was alive. I… I…”
s.h.i.+ Hanchu stopped next to Su Manman, a sarcastic smile on his lips. “Is it appropriate for Mr. Du to be asking about his ex-girlfriend now while dating Miss Meng Yuqiao?”
“Brother Hanchu…” Du Lingyang looked at s.h.i.+ Hanchu, who was one head taller than him and had longer legs. He stood beside Su Manman and suddenly felt a little uncertain.
“Mr. Du, Mingzhu has pa.s.sed away. Since you already have a girlfriend, you should cherish the person next to you. Don’t wait until you lose her before you realize how precious the person is to you. Regret is always too late…” s.h.i.+ Hanchu seemed to have a hidden meaning in his words, which gave people a lot of room for imagination.
After all, s.h.i.+ Hanchu was Jiang Mingzhu’s best friend. When even s.h.i.+ Hanchu, who rarely liked to talk much, had spoken that way, the nosy crowd felt that another piece of news had come.
Du Lingyang pursed his lips and remained silent. He was especially annoyed with s.h.i.+ Hanchu.
“Didn’t I tell Meng Yuqiao clearly last time?” Su Manman didn’t intend to cover up for Du Lingyang either. “Sister Mingzhu asked me to help tell her mother to be careful of you! As for why she said that, I don’t know… I’m only responsible for pa.s.sing the message!”
s.h.i.+ Hanchu frowned slightly. Jiang Mingzhu… had once asked Su Manman to tell her mother to be careful of Du Lingyang?
Du Lingyang hadn’t expected Su Manman to say it aloud in public, so he panicked for a moment.
However, he immediately calmed down and revealed a look of extreme grief. “Right… I heard from Yuqiao, but I don’t understand. I loved Mingzhu so much, and I wouldn’t mind exchanging my life for hers. Why did she make Auntie be careful of me?”
Su Manman’s expression was cold. Du Lingyang’s acting was really good. It would be a pity if he didn’t win the Best Actor awards.
“I’m only responsible for pa.s.sing the message!” Su Manman smiled after saying this. “Since Sister Mingzhu told Auntie to be careful of Mr. Du, I must be careful too. Mr. Du… if something happens to me, such as… getting into a car accident after taking medicine like Sister Mingzhu, I’ll definitely get my parents to check on you!”
Du Lingyang felt as if he was struck by lightning.
She knew! She did!
Du Lingyang was trembling all over, his face extremely pale…
Even the other people at the filming location sighed.
Su Manman really dared to use the situation of getting into a car accident after taking medicine like Jiang Mingzhu as an example. This reflected… that Jiang Mingzhu’s accident had something to do with Du Lingyang!
However, judging from Du Lingyang’s reaction, it couldn’t be that… Du Lingyang was really involved?
Very quickly, Du Lingyang calmed down and pointed at Su Manman, hysterical. “What nonsense are you spouting! Do you believe that I would…”
s.h.i.+ Hanchu quickly grabbed Su Manman’s wrist with one hand and pulled her behind him to protect her, while the other grabbed Du Lingyang’s wrist.
s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s deep eyes stared at Du Lingyang and his voice was unbelievably cold. “Mr. Du, be careful of your words!”
“Brother Hanchu! Don’t tell me you believe this woman’s words too! I really didn’t know about Mingzhu taking drugs. That was the result of her blood test… I don’t dare to say that I’m the last person to wish a car accident on her since there’s also Auntie! But other than Auntie, who else can be sadder about Mingzhu’s death than me!?”
“Really?”
Su Manman, who was hidden behind s.h.i.+ Hanchu, sneered…
“But Du Lingyang, back then, Sister Mingzhu’s doctor was your mother. Did you kneel and beg your mother to save Jiang Mingzhu? Or is there some unspeakable secret… I hope your mother really tried her best to save Jiang Mingzhu!”
Hearing this, even Director Chen Wenhua stood up and looked towards Su Manman and Du Lingyang.
Director Chen Wenhua considered Jiang Mingzhu as his disciple.
“What nonsense are you spouting?” Du Lingyang’s eyes turned red as he charged towards Su Manman.
This time around, s.h.i.+ Hanchu didn’t stand on ceremony. He grabbed Du Lingyang and pushed him forcefully…
Du Lingyang lost his balance and b.u.mped into the lights behind him. He fell to the ground in a sorry state.
“Be more polite when talking to a lady. This is the most basic upbringing!” s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s voice was still gentle, but it was so cold that it sent chills down one’s spine.
“Brother Hanchu, don’t tell me you believe this woman’s words too?” Du Lingyang’s eyes widened as he looked at s.h.i.+ Hanchu. “She’s spouting nonsense! Back then, we were all at the hospital. How was it possible that Mingzhu woke up and coincidentally met Su Manman without us knowing? She’s lying, Brother Hanchu!”
s.h.i.+ Hanchu’s brows furrowed, but there was no trust in Du Lingyang in his deep eyes.
Su Manman walked out from behind s.h.i.+ Hanchu. “Tsk tsk tsk… What’s the matter? You’re feeling guilty because I hit the mark? You don’t even care about your facade and want to kill me?”
“You…” Du Lingyang’s mind was in a mess, but he quickly calmed down. “You can’t insult my love for Mingzhu like this!”
Su Manman didn’t reply. “If you hadn’t done it, why are you so afraid? I’ve said it before… other than telling me to be careful of you, Sister Mingzhu said nothing else. I merely guessed all the other things. So, why are you so agitated?”
“Do you know that rumors can kill people? It’s one thing to kill me with your words… but you can’t insult my love for Mingzhu!” Du Lingyang said firmly.
If Su Manman hadn’t experienced that fake sincere expression, she would have believed it.
