Chapter 481: Reactions from the Audience and the Viewers
"What the h.e.l.l!!!"
"What"s going on here?"
"Do I have vision impairment?"
"Did Mr. Fu just hug JL?"
"Right, I"m not the only one seeing this..." Linda said with a shocked gaze.
"Is this a way of encouragement or what?"
"But that"s weird! How can the Big Boss comfort JL this way, this could lead to a misunderstanding!"
Sunny who was watching the big screen closed her eyes. She knew Fu Hua was not going on stage to scold Jia Li since she was his wife but hugging her on stage? That was the least she expected.
"Now I know why Hua invited us all today." Fu Hee said with a smiling gaze.
"He sure knows how to surprise us all." Fu Lei said with a frown.
"Oh my! This is so loving." Fu ChunHua said with an excited gaze.
"I am truly shocked by his actions, I almost had a heart attack." Fu Geming said with his palm on his chest.
He almost stopped breathing when Fu Hua hugged Jia Li.
Grandfather Fu looked unfazed by the situation but complimented Fu Hua in his mind. "That"s my grandson!"
Jasmine, on the other hand, couldn"t keep put anymore. Both of her parents were on stage hugging each other and the big screen was still displaying them.
"Giegiampa... My mum and Dada..." Jasmine said to the old man with a surprised gaze. She first called out to the old man. She was trying to say, "Great-grandpa" as she was thought but her p.r.o.nunciation was funny.
Grandfather Fu smiled at the little bun who had a surprised gaze on him and confirmed that it was her parents on stage.
Jia Li was so shocked by Fu Hua"s actions that she forgot to cry. Realizing that so many people were watching them in shock, she asked in a low tone, "What are you doing?"
Fu Hua raised one of his hands to pat the back of her head as he replied in a low tone, "I couldn"t bear to watch you cry, so I came out here to comfort you."
Jia Li couldn"t believe her ears and said with gritted teeth, "Can you let me go this moment!"
While Jia Li and Fu Hua were still communicating secretly on the stage, this jaw-dropping scene of them hugging on stage didn"t seem to be a small scene.
Fu Meixu who was on a flight back to China was watching the live show and couldn"t help screaming in shock. The people in the same flight as her seemed to be watching the show on the television because there were gasps of shocks and murmuring from them.
The rest of the people watching this scene began to have so many different thoughts going through their minds.
Feng Alix was watching the show with her tablet and there was a thorn in her heart. The feelings she had managed to hide in her heart, started to emerge slowly.
She was filled with jealousy and bitterness at the sweetness Fu Hua displayed for another woman in front of everybody.
Since Jia Li was embarra.s.sed and asked him to let her go, Fu Hua obeyed her. Immediately Fu Hua let her go, Jia Li bowed to him as a way of saying thank you.
Now, this scene has confused everyone again. Those that were thinking that Jia Li might be Fu Hua"s hidden Wife, became confused after Jia Li bowed to Fu Hua with a respectful gaze that showed her respect and gratefulness to her Boss.
"Can someone tell me what is going on here?"
"I almost thought JL is Mr. Fu"s wife or is she not?"
"I feel like I"m watching a soap opera right now."
"Someone had better explain this confusing situation to me."
The Fu family was left confused by Jia Li"s actions, as the thought that she didn"t want to acknowledge the relations.h.i.+p between her and Fu Hua.
"I think she acted that way because she is still unaware that Hua is indirectly announcing that she is his wife." Fu ChunHua said with a smile.
Even Fu Hua was surprised by Jia Li"s actions but he just smiled to himself and asked Zimo to pa.s.s the microphone back to her.
After Jia Li received the microphone from Zimo, she heaved a deep sigh, before turning to face the shocked judges.
Jia first started with this statement...
"I"m sorry, I was really emotional earlier and I"m ashamed that I troubled my Boss to comfort me. My name is Qin Jia Li and I must say that..."
When Jia Li mentions that her name was, "Qin Jia Li" a wealthy family somewhere with the surname "Huang", was watching the show and one of the members of the family, looked a little surprised to hear the surname, "Qin" from her lips.
That surname, "Qin" sounded familiar to her like she has heard it somewhere before but couldn"t place her hand on when, where and who she might have heard it from.
"Father, don"t you think the surname, "Qin" sounds familiar?" The middle-aged lady asked the old man sitting beside her.
"What is so special about the "Qin" surname, many families are answering it. Just keep quiet and let me see what the Fu family are up to." Old Mr. Huang said with a frown before moving his gaze back to the TV with full concentration.
While so many people were paying attention to Jia Li, she continued with her speech, "... I"m grateful to my late parents, Mr. and Mrs. Qin for their love and support to study Fas.h.i.+on and design. I"m thankful to my new family because they have been a great help to me since my parents died. To my husband who has been very strict with his guidance, I want to say a big thank you to you because the hard work I put in to create today"s designs, it"s all because of your scolding."
When Jia Li said the last part, she smiled as her eyes became teary. She could still remember Fu Hua scolding her at the dinner table that night and all the pointers he has ever given to her.
"Okay, now I"m curious about JL"s husband." One of the newbie designers said with a fixed gaze on the screen.
"I think JL"s husband is a big shot too..." One of the newbies said with a curious gaze.
Jia Li"s statement about her husband garnered a lot of attention from the viewers and the audience. They were curious and really wanted to know who her husband was but to their disappointment, she didn"t mention his name and went on to continue giving thanks to others.
