Chapter 416: I Feel Heartbroken for Her_1
At the very beginning, the abuse from people towards her wasn’t so severe, yet Dongfang Yu was already incensed.
Now, it has escalated to such an extre that almost the entire population of C City is rebuking her.
She was worried that Dongfang Yu would beco even more furious.
Hai Xiaotang also knew that their enemies were secretly manipulating everything, but they didn’t know who the enemy was, nor could they fight back against them, they could only tread carefully and cautiously.
Yet, she didn’t anticipate that their opponent, being quite clever, chose not to continue their attack on Dongfang Yu.
Instead, they chose to attack her…
And she was, unfortunately, Dongfang Yu’s greatest weakness!
Regardless, Hai Xiaotang was feeling very unsettled, very worried that sothing bad would happen to Dongfang Yu sooner or later.
Hai Xiaotang planned to persuade him thoroughly today and sent a text ssage to Dongfang Yu, asking when he would return.
Dongfang Yu imdiately called her back, straight off the bat asking nervously: “What happened? Is sothing wrong?”
Hai Xiaotang was startled for a mont before she laughed and said, “No, nothing’s wrong. I was just asking when you would be back.”
Her voice sounded completely normal, completely unaffected by external influences.
Dongfang Yu breathed a sigh of relief and reversed the question with a smile: “Missing and want to co ho soon?”
“I just wanted to have dinner with you.”
“I’ll be back soon. If you’re hungry, eat first.”
“I’m not hungry, I’ll wait for you to co back.”
“Alright!” Dongfang Yu nodded before hanging up the call.
The smile on his face also disappeared once the call got disconnected.
Dongfang Yu really wished to protect Hai Xiaotang, but with the current circumstances, everything was beyond his control.
Dongfang Yu sincerely felt sorry for her and worried about her.
But Xiaotang still appeared as if nothing was bothering her, and the more carefree she tried to be, the more worried he beca.
If it were possible, he wished all the antagonism were directed towards him, he was ready to bear everything for her!
**************
Dongfang Yu returned ho rather quickly.
As soon as he stepped into the living room, he saw Hai Xiaotang looking at a tablet, browsing through webpages.
His heartbeat quickened as he strode towards her, asking directly: “What are you looking at?”
He was worried that she might have seen the news and public opinions on the internet.
As it turned out, Hai Xiaotang was indeed looking at that!
Dongfang Yu frowned and asked, “Why are you looking at this?”
While speaking, he reached out to snatch the tablet away, but Hai Xiaotang avoided his grasp and instead looked up at him with a smile, saying, “What they’re saying about is so funny. Why would they say that about ? It’s hilarious.”
Dongfang Yu frowned in confusion, “Funny?”
“Yeah. They’re saying I’m just seducing you with my looks, but clearly you’re more good looking than I am, they’re really giving too much credit. They also said that I, being born in a privileged background, must be spoiled rotten, with all the airs of a princess, and yet you still indulge . So, they’re jealous of my good birth and good marriage, aren’t they? They also ntioned that I married you just for your money when in reality I fell in love with your good looks.”
The more Hai Xiaotang talked, the funnier she found it.
She had turned all the insulting comnts about her into a laughing matter.
Dongfang Yu, however, couldn’t find it funny, he snatched the tablet away and warned her sternly, “You’re not allowed to look at these things in the future! Whatever they say, don’t bother about it!”
Hai Xiaotang nodded, “Okay, I’ll heed your advice, I won’t bother, and you shouldn’t either!”
How could Dongfang Yu not understand her intention?
Her nonchalant deanor in the face of the slandering internet crowd was her way of telling him that she didn’t care about other people’s opinion.
So, he shouldn’t care either.
But, how could he manage to be completely indifferent?
