Chapter 855: Shocking Reversal, Slap in the Face! (Part 2)
The crowd already believed half of it, but still had some doubts.
The reporters on-site continued to ask, "Miss Yan, yesterday at noon Director Lu was photographed entering and leaving a hotel with a woman. Was that woman you?"
"No."
Yan Weiyang replied, with a hint of resentment inside.
She wished that woman were her!
"Then why were you wearing the same clothes as that woman?"
Hearing this question, Yan Weiyang smiled more helplessly.
"That outfit is a new high-end custom design for this season by Lu Corporation. As I just said, as the spokesperson for the high-end clothing brand of Lu Corporation, there’s no problem with me wearing the clothes I’m about to endorse, right?
It’s reasonable for Director Lu’s girlfriend to wear clothes from Lu Corporation as well. All we can say is that I and Director Lu’s girlfriend have similar tastes, and we wore the same clothes by coincidence."
The latter sentence she said somewhat playfully, making it easy for others to lower their guard.
Previously, they were half-believing, but now they were seventy to eighty percent convinced.
Yes, she was about to endorse the brand, celebrities wearing their own endorsements is professionalism, never missing a moment for promotion.
In this way, Yan Weiyang isn’t at fault.
If she were to be blamed, it would be for having bad luck, coincidentally wearing the same outfit at such a critical time.
Someone looked back through the whole incident and found that Yan Weiyang was truly innocent, never claiming to be Lu Hualiang’s girlfriend, and even went online to clarify after things got out of hand.
It’s just that the netizens at the time were already convinced that she was in a relationship with Lu Hualiang, and didn’t believe her.
It seems it was them overthinking, not Yan Weiyang being scheming.
Moreover, the things she mentioned, whether it was He Xin’s daughter’s illness or her being a regular at a breakfast shop near Lu Corporation, could all withstand verification.
With that, there’s nothing left to doubt.
Having clarified the situation, just a misunderstanding, the interview was drawing to a close.
The reporters casually asked a few light questions, and when asked if Yan Weiyang knew Lu Hualiang, Yan Weiyang calmly replied that they were just ordinary friends.
"Then Miss Yan, as a friend, do you know who the woman dining with Director Lu was? Is she Director Lu’s girlfriend?"
Yan Weiyang’s face froze on the spot, her fingers clenched tight.
If not for the constant reminder in her mind that she was being interviewed live, she might have lost her composure immediately.
"I don’t know, this is Director Lu’s private matter, no comment."
With that, she left under the protection of the staff.
He Xin stepped up to make final closing remarks.
Back in the private backstage lounge, Yan Weiyang’s face changed instantly.
The last question was like a sharp knife directly stabbing into her heart!
Is she Lu Hualiang’s girlfriend?
Ha! Xia Weibao is not Lu Hualiang’s girlfriend, but his wife!
Just the thought of the person dining with him being Xia Weibao instead of her made her wildly jealous!
She thought she could sow discord between Xia Weibao and Lu Hualiang through scandal, but it all backfired!
Almost got herself burned, nearly ruining three years of effort.
She was furious!
In this situation, rumors couldn’t be used anymore.
Thinking of the harmonious scene she saw that night between Xia Weibao, Lu Hualiang, and Lu Huashan, Yan Weiyang was so angry she felt blocked.
By the time He Xin came in, she had already composed herself.
"Sister Xin, about the inquiry into the Secret Honey skincare products I asked you to look into last time, how’s it going?"
Since there’s no way to act from Lu Hualiang’s side for now, she’ll have to start with Lu Huashan.
