Chapter 443 The Real Mastermind, Xia Shi
"Yeah, military accolades are not easy to earn. Master spent so much effort to catch Du Yin, even taking on the task personally and almost getting hurt in the process.
And your position as an honorary instructor was also something he helped with.
In order to secure that position for you, Master donated a large sum of money in your name, renovated the Northern Military Camp, and even built several new barracks.
Lady, let me tell you..."
With a rapid-fire tongue, Yang Li sang Lu Hualiang’s praises to the skies.
Everything he did was exaggerated tenfold, and whatever he didn’t do was forcibly attributed to him.
In short, to help his Master woo his wife, one couldn’t imagine how many old mothers’ hearts he had broken.
He made it sound like Lu Hualiang went through fire and water for her, that spilling his blood and laying down his life for her was an understatement!
Xia Weibao was moved to tears.
She never knew that he had done so much for her behind the scenes.
If it weren’t for Yang Li telling her, she would have almost thought that it was Fang Lilin who had helped her this time.
It suddenly occurred to her that when Fang Lilin invited her to dinner last night, he only said he would get her military honors but didn’t mention it was due to Lu Hualiang.
It made her believe it was his doing.
This made her feel a bit uncomfortable.
It was as if someone had stolen credit for her own husband’s efforts.
"Is Director Lu free now? I want to thank him in person."
Wiping away crocodile tears, Yang Li thought, ’You’re finally getting it, lady.’
All his painstaking efforts to bring them together hadn’t been in vain.
However, now was not the best time for a face-to-face.
Yearning but being unable to meet is when one realizes the other’s importance.
So he cleared his throat and said, "Master is still in a meeting, has been all morning, and didn’t even have time for lunch. He’s going to be in meetings all day today.
Lady, you’d better apologize to Director Lu when he comes home tonight."
By then, the firewood will blaze, and the flames of their affection will ignite... heh heh heh.
"That busy?" Xia Weibao frowned.
No matter how busy one is, there’s always time to eat.
"Yes, because he postponed all his work to catch the big drug trafficker yesterday, so he’s particularly busy these two days."
To support Lu Hualiang’s quiet pursuit, Yang Li really gave it his all.
He never stopped singing his Master’s praises.
Xia Weibao felt even more guilty.
She asked Yang Li to order takeout for Lu Hualiang and then hung up the phone.
She wanted to see him even more now.
But with him so busy, how could she have the heart to disturb him?
Forget it, she could just thank him when they got home tonight.
She checked the internet and saw that the buzz was still going strong.
She was the first celebrity to get military support!
That military medal was also the first in the entertainment industry!
Now she had outshone everyone.
She was even hailed as the most righteous female celebrity in the circle!
Her comeback had set ablaze the popularity of ’Allure,’ Hongtu, and all associated individuals like Zhuang Xuejun, Yin Guo, Qiao Li who had spoken for her.
There was a chorus of praise.
The download count for Youju started rising, and the viewership for ’Allure’ began to climb back up.
The process might have been tortuous, but the result was favorable; she turned out to be the biggest winner.
Xia Weibao frowned. This situation looked like it was intended to smear her, but why did it feel like it was actually helping her?
Suddenly thinking of something, she turned to Xia Shi.
"Sister Xia Shi, was it you who leaked the news about me going undercover to catch the drug trafficker?"
She had told Xia Shi about it quite a while ago.
Plus, Xia Shi had mentioned she wanted to pull off a big publicity stunt.
Xia Shi nodded, "It was me."
Leng Yan was still happily watching the viewership for ’Allure’ rise when he overheard their conversation and jumped up abruptly.
