"Axing!" She quickened her pace, walking toward the front desk.
Su Xingyu cursed inwardly; the person coming turned out to be Zhuang Heng.
She wanted to retreat, back into the elevator, but it was already too late. A large group of reporters followed behind Zhuang Heng, flooding in, each holding their caras, creating a lively scene.
"Quick, quick, that’s Axing!"
"Block her! Don’t let her run away!"
"I’ll block the back; the rest of you hurry! Miss Axing, don’t leave! We have a few questions we want to ask you!"
Su Xingyu’s face sank. Given this situation, turning and running really wasn’t convenient anymore—let alone whether she could outrun those reporters, even if she turned and left, that action would likely be captured by soone, uploaded to the dia as so kind of escape.
So she stood still, quietly waiting for Zhuang Heng to bring those reporters over.
Originally, a few editors and models from Cloud Magazine who had co down with Su Xingyu now surrounded her upon seeing the commotion, forming a barrier to sowhat separate her from those reporters.
"Make so room, everyone stand back! What’s with the pushing!" said an editor from Cloud Magazine, who had invited Su Xingyu to be the principal photographer for today’s fashion comrcial shoot. She couldn’t let the main photographer have an incident on her own turf; it would be disgraceful to spread this around. The other staff mbers also voluntarily assisted Su Xingyu; they all liked her professional skills and personality after working together for a while, so they naturally stepped in to help upon seeing her in trouble.
Both sides vaguely ford a confrontational stance.
Zhuang Heng stopped in front of Su Xingyu, looking at her and saying, "Axing, I finally found you. You’ve been avoiding so desperately. Can’t we sit down and talk about things?"
Finally found her? Avoiding?
Su Xingyu listened, coldly smiling, thinking that Zhuang Heng was becoming better at acting. She looked at Zhuang Heng and said indifferently, "Miss Zhuang, we’re not acquainted, are we? What do you an I’m avoiding you? Please choose your words carefully; you are raised from a prestigious family, don’t speak misleadingly all the ti, alright?"
She referred to Zhuang Heng as "Miss Zhuang," not "Mrs. Lu," which sharp reporters quickly picked up on, interrupting loudly, "Miss Axing, you call Zhuang Heng ’Miss Zhuang,’ does that an you refuse to acknowledge her as Mrs. Lu? What is your connection to Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu’s divorce, was it really initiated because of you?"
Then ca the echoing voices of many reporters, pressing for answers.
Su Xingyu frowned directly, the matter involved Lu Shifeng again. Sure enough, only by getting entangled with that man could a crowd of reporters be drawn.
She looked at Zhuang Heng with a colder gaze.
Zhuang Heng looked aggrieved, slightly frowning, "Axing, I’ve been looking for you for so long, how can you speak to like this? If we’re talking about misleading, who exactly is the one doing it? I was just wanting to ask, what is your relationship with Shifeng? How co today Shifeng suddenly said he wants to divorce ? Did you incite him? How can you do this? Shifeng is a married man..."
As she spoke, she looked deeply hurt, as if all the world’s sorrows were upon her, with a fragile appearance, drawing much sympathy.
But Su Xingyu only felt disgusted, married man?
When Zhuang Heng seduced Lu Shifeng into bed and got pregnant, did she forget he was a married man?
However, she didn’t want to tear into these matters publicly with Zhuang Heng—these revelations would be too ugly, especially considering the involvent of Jue. Even though Jue’s birth was flawed, he was after all a child she cherished. She didn’t want people to think of him as so illegitimate child, a symbol of the sins of an affair.
Besides, she didn’t even know about Lu Shifeng’s divorce with Zhuang Heng today.
Lu Shifeng and Zhuang Heng were never married, where is the divorce coming from?
With a bit of thought, she understood and asked Zhuang Heng, "Did Lu Shifeng announce your divorce to the dia today?" He indeed ntioned to her yesterday that he would resolve the Zhuang Heng matter today.
This man acted swiftly, and really quickly resolved it.
Zhuang Heng’s face showed a sorrowful expression, saying, "So it was you who incited him, or how do you know so clearly?"
Soone beside Su Xingyu couldn’t stand it anymore, a model from Cloud scoffed, "Ha, Miss Zhuang, are you a bit delusional? Whether Axing knows or not about this matter or whether she incited Mr. Lu Shifeng, is there a necessary connection? Didn’t Mr. Lu hold a press conference this afternoon? Probably the whole city knows by now, everyone knows, right? Are you saying we all went together to incite Mr. Lu Shifeng? Hahahahaha!"
The companions around the model also laughed along, "Hahahahahaha, it’s just too funny."
Lu Shifeng indeed held a press conference this afternoon, having his lawyer announce the termination of his engagent with Zhuang Heng.
People at Cloud Magazine had already seen this news on their phones during work breaks and were discussing it as juicy gossip. However, they didn’t know whether this matter concerned Su Xingyu directly and thus hadn’t dared to bring it up in her presence. Therefore, everyone at Cloud knew about Lu Shifeng’s announcent of divorce, but Su Xingyu, busy with work, hadn’t had ti to check her phone and knew nothing of the news.
So, that question from Su Xingyu earlier was genuine.
Zhuang Heng had also caught on that Su Xingyu asked it genuinely, suspecting she learned of it from Lu Shifeng rather than the dia, thinking Su Xingyu must have really instigated it.
But this reasoning was subtle and barely stood scrutiny, especially when ridiculed by several staff mbers at Cloud Magazine, making Zhuang Heng’s face turn pale and embarrassed. She hadn’t anticipated encountering such resistance.
Indeed, she hadn’t anticipated it.
For years, she had been the eldest daughter of the Zhuang Family, living luxuriously and adored.
Even when Lu Shifeng attacked Zhuang’s Costics Company in a fit of anger recently, nearly bankrupting the Zhuang Family, she still retained the dignity of Lu Shifeng’s wife, the wealthy and esteed Mrs. Lu. Thus, wherever she went, few dared show her disrespect. Yet today, as soon as Lu Shifeng announced the divorce, she was suddenly rejected, even laughed at by staff at Cloud Magazine!
A fire burned in Zhuang Heng’s heart, yet she was unable to let it out. She chose to ignore those people, staring at Su Xingyu, "You can’t destroy others’ families like this! Is being a mistress sothing to be proud of?!"
