nWen Yun looked at the agitated reporters and hurriedly said, “I called Manman last night to explain myself. She’s truly a kind woman. She said that she would give me time and forgive me. I couldn’t make things difficult for her, so I took the initiative to call the wedding off. I’m not qualified to marry her now, but time will prove everything. When Manman is really willing to marry me again, I will use all the opportunities I have. I swear that I will wait for Lu Manman for the rest of my life, and I won’t go back on my word!”

nHe sounded so passionate.

nLu Manman held the IPAD, her smile especially cold.

nVery good.

nIf Wen Yun dared to say that he would wait the rest of his life, surely he felt convinced that she would get back together with him?!

nShe wanted to see what he would do when she got married to someone else!

nWith a cold laugh, Lu Manman closed the IPAD section. There was nothing much to see on the news anymore. Most of the reporters had been bribed by Wen Yun, and they would surely speak from his point of view. But no matter how he tried to mask it, it only made matters worse. The fact had already been established, and such a sensational piece of news was enough to make Wen Yun wallow in depression for a long time.

nMoreover, she would add fuel to the fire from time to time.

nWith that thought in mind, she snuggled under the blanket and went to sleep.

nShe slept until she woke up naturally.

nIt was already noon when she opened her eyes.

nShe stretched and yawned.

nThen, she looked at her missed calls.

nAs she had turned off her cell phone, she had not heard her phone ringing. At this moment, she saw several missed calls from Wen Yun.

nHowever, she did not bother about the missed calls. She opened the news app and browsed the headlines. When she saw Wen Yun’s news, there were some positive comments. Everyone knew that these comments were fake, and there were even more haters. In an instant, they suppressed the positive comments, and more and more people started cursing Wen Yun…

nIf this had happened to any other man, such as Mo Yuanxiu, who did not have a good reputation to begin with, perhaps everyone would just laugh it off. The more perfect a man was, the more unforgivable his mistakes would be. In fact, there would be unprecedented attacks on him! The press conference would only help the media outlets write better things, but if they did not watch their backs, news of Wen Yun’s mistakes would spread like wildfire.

nWen Yun was still too arrogant.

nHe really thought that with his glib tongue, he could treat everyone in Wen City like fools.

nWhile looking at the various malicious comments, her cell phone rang.

nIt was still Wen Yun.

nShe narrowed her eyes and picked up the call. “Yun.”

n“Manman, why didn’t you pick up my call?” His voice was anxious and unhappy.

nAs if he could not hold it in anymore.

nLu Manman innocently said, “I fell asleep. I slept so late last night that I basically stayed up all night. Did something happen?”

n“It’s nothing serious. I called for a press conference, and we’ve already canceled our wedding.”

n“Mm-hm,” Lu Manman answered.

n“Manman, actually, I don’t care if I get scolded by others, but I don’t want to make things difficult for you. What I said at the press conference was all true. I will wait for your forgiveness, but…” Wen Yun paused hesitantly.

nLu Manman remained silent.

nWen Yun waited for a while but did not hear Lu Manman say anything. He could not help but add, “There was a press conference today, and many people said that I was acting on my own. They even said that I’d hurt you but dared to call the wedding off. They said that I… They had too many mean things to say, but I really don’t care.”

n“Mm-hm, their mouth belongs to them. Don’t think too much.” Lu Manman kindly comforted him.

nOf course she knew that was not what Wen Yun wanted to hear.

nThe next moment, Wen Yun could hold it in no longer. “Manman, I’m really doing this for our good in the future. You don’t want me to be embarrassed like this, right? It makes your heart ache, right? So why don’t you tell the media about how good I am?”

nLu Manman scoffed.

nHe had finally revealed his objective!

nDid he really think she was an idiot? He had done something so atrocious, yet she had to put in a good word for him?

nEveryone knew that it was best for her to speak up for him in front of the media now. After all, she was the one involved, and if she had already forgiven him, who else had the right to scold him?!

n“Alright, I will.” She promised him.

n“Manman, thank you.” Wen Yun heaved a sigh of relief, and his voice became a lot gentler. “Manman, I will build up my image again. I won’t let you feel aggrieved.”

n“Mm-hm,” Lu Manman answered and then said, “Yun, it’s noon. I haven’t eaten breakfast yet. I’m getting up to eat. Bye.”

n“Bye, Manman.”

nLu Manman hung up and smiled deviously.

nWen Yun, this is just the beginning of my revenge!

nShe looked up and made a call.

nIt rang a few times before the other party picked up. “Hello.”

n“Mo Yuanxiu, want to grab a bite?”

n“What for?”

n“To celebrate?” Lu Manman said. “After all, isn’t it satisfying?”

n“That’s all you seek?”

n“Of course.” Lu Manman smiled. “It’s much more than that.”

nThe person on the other end seemed to laugh as well. He asked, “What do you want to eat?”

n“Tell me. It’s on me.”

n“I’ve never allowed a woman to treat me,” Mo Yuanxiu said.

n“But I’m obviously richer than you,” Lu Manman said proudly.

nMo Yuanxiu was taken aback. “So?”

n“You grabbed a real bargain.”

n“So you’re getting married to me?”

n“No, let’s play some more.” Lu Manman squinted. “Wen Yun’s issue isn’t over yet!”

nMo Yuanxiu pursed his lips.

n“What do you want to eat tonight?” she asked excitedly.

n“Anything?”

n“I’ve always been generous.”

n“Then, I’ll eat you.” The voice was neither warm nor cold.

nLu Manman bit her lip. What a shameless man!

n“Didn’t you say that anything was fine?”

n“Mo Yuanxiu, I don’t have the time to joke with you!”

n“Do I sound like I’m joking?”

n“Crazy!” Lu Manman hung up the phone.

nThis man!

nShe touched her burning face!

nCould a man like Mo Yuanxiu even say something like that?!

nJust as she was feeling unhappy, her cell phone rang. Mo Yuanxiu had sent her a text message: No.1 French Steak Restaurant. 6:30 PM. Time out.

nWas he sending a telegram?! It was so succinct!
