Chapter 748: Director Lu Becomes a Trending Topic
Yan Weiyang meant no more to him than any other stranger on the street.
If there was any difference, it was probably that her status was slightly higher, but that was irrelevant to him.
"Wife, Yan Weiyang lives next door."
"Next door?" Xia Weibao was startled, "The Presidential Mansion?"
"Yes, she’s Yan Fei’s cousin, and the Yan Family wanted to arrange a marriage alliance with the Lu Family. Indeed, discussions occurred.
But they talked with my father, which is probably how the matter of her being my fiancée came about.
As for the outcome of their negotiations, I don’t know. I never cared, so you shouldn’t either.
Just know that my wife is you, you are my, Lu Hualiang’s, only wife. Ignore everything else and don’t listen to the idle chatter of others."
It’s better to mention these things to her, so that no one can take advantage of any loopholes.
After all, whether fiancée or wife, she is the only one. He had a clear conscience.
"Your dad?" Xia Weibao was somewhat puzzled.
This was the first time Lu Hualiang mentioned any relatives other than Zhong Wanshu and Lu Huashan.
"Yes." Lu Hualiang looked slightly cold, clearly not wanting to talk about this topic.
"Does he know we are married?" Xia Weibao asked.
"He doesn’t need to know, just mutter knows that’s enough."
Seeing that he was somewhat impatient, Xia Weibao tactfully did not continue the topic.
"Then, the incident where I was slandered three years ago, was it Yan Weiyang who did it?"
At the mention of this, Lu Hualiang looked at her apologetically and pursed his lips.
"It wasn’t Yan Weiyang who took action. She doesn’t have that much influence. However, the incident did arise because of her.
They probably found out that you were my fiancée, so...
Wife, I once owed a debt of gratitude to Yan Weiyang’s mother. She made a deal with me, asking me not to pursue the matter and I...
Xia Weibao instantly understood. Lu Hualiang must have found out the truth about what happened three years ago and wanted to right the wrongs done to her.
Then, Yan Weiyang’s mother used past favors to influence him not to intervene.
Lu Hualiang was a man of cold reason, even cold-blooded; for him to owe a favor, it must not have been a trivial matter.
He was a man of his word, so how could she make things difficult for him?
"That’s all in the past now, and I’ve already cleared my name. There’s no need to pursue it."
Lu Hualiang embraced her, his eyes full of regret.
The incident three years ago was orchestrated by Yan Fei, whom he had already taught a lesson.
But the incident that happened recently was indeed done by Yan Weiyang. He was ready to take action.
However, Yan Weiyang’s mother called him to back off, considering it repaying the favor she once gave him.
This was a promise he had made before, one he could not break.
"I’ve wronged you."
Lu Hualiang kissed her hair gently.
"Not at all," Xia Weibao was somewhat at a loss for words. Keeping one’s word was expected, after all. He had done nothing wrong.
Why apologize?
She had never intended for him to avenge her.
What a gain it was! It had nothing to do with Lu Hualiang in the first place, yet Yan Weiyang’s mother sought him out, wasting one of Lu Hualiang’s promises for nothing.
Simply put, a debt of favor was paid off. How wonderful.
Her face pressed against Lu Hualiang’s chest, listening to his strong and steady heartbeat, her gaze, however, was somewhat icy.
She had taken over Xia Weibao’s body, so Xia Weibao’s grudges must be avenged by her personally!
After breakfast, she sat on the sofa, reading today’s newspaper.
On the entertainment page, almost all the news was about Lu Hualiang’s sudden appearance at the Golden Ying Award Ceremony last night.
Xia Weibao logged onto Weibo, and as expected, the top trending topic was Lu Hualiang.
Her winning the Golden Ying Award-winning Actress only ranked fourth in the trending searches.
