Chapter 20 Snatching Means Snatching

Lu Qingqiao raised her phone to show her the trending searches and said, “It’s useless to say all this. You might as well think about how to explain it.”

Lu Xueru’s face turned pale when she saw the entry.

(Si Jingsen, Absent in his Proposal to Lu Qingqiao, But Present in his Private Meeting with Lu Xueru) Everything went silent.

Si Jingsen, who had just been hoping that he could suppress the news, also realized that things were out of control.

Now, they could only do as Lu Qingqiao had said and discuss how to explain this matter.

After all, he had been through a lot. Si Jingsen quickly understood that Lu Qingqiao’s calmness would make it easier for him to explain later.

If Lu Qingqiao had just caused a ruckus, then he and Lu Xueru would have honestly become the ones who cheated on her and betrayed her.

“Little Qing, I’m sorry. I’ll explain to you when I’m done with this matter.” Si Jingsen looked at Lu Qingqiao with a complicated expression.

“You don’t need to explain to me,” Lu Qingqiao said lightly.

Si Jingsen thought he heard Lu Qingqiao say that she didn’t need his explanation. He believed she would forgive him. However, he soon realized that that wasn’t the case.

Facing the media, Lu Qingqiao calmly said, “I’ll make it clear here that I have nothing to do with Young Master Si’s matter. Also, my boyfriend and I don’t want to be disturbed. You know what to do.”

She left as soon as she finished speaking. She did not care about Si Jingsen and Lu Xueru’s explanation.

Lu Qingqiao had already cut herself off from Si Jingsen. If Si Jingsen still wanted to talk to her in front of the media, it would prove that he had an affair with Lu Xueru and had betrayed Lu Qingqiao.

Hence, Si Jingsen could only acknowledge his relationship and admit that he was with Lu Xueru.

With Lu Qingqiao before them, there seemed to be nothing wrong with them.

However, the staff members who knew the inside story of his proposal all had constipated expressions on their faces.

Young Master Si was explicitly good at making up stories.

However, the discussion about the two on the internet did not improve.

(The noble circle is so chaotic. Snatching her elder sister’s fiancé is still snatching. Is there any meaning in saying all this? To think that CEO Lu has been so good to her all these years. She’s an ungrateful wretch now!]

[Lu Xueru’s image as a pure and innocent girl has fallen apart. I’ve already said that she’s not a good person.)

(What’s wrong with Young Master Si? Is he blind? Can Lu Xueru be compared to our CEO Lu? They’re not even on the same level, okay?]

******

Lu Xueru’s fans were defending her.

(What fiancé? When did CEO Lu and Young Master Si get engaged? Moreover, CEO Lu had already said that she has a boyfriend. Why wouldn’t she allow Young Master Si to have a girlfriend? You’re simply jealous of our Xueru for having such a handsome and capable boyfriend!)

(That’s right. Our Xueru is impressive. Of course, she will attract impressive people. CEO Lu dotes on Xueru so much, so she must know about this. What are you outsiders clamoring for?]

******

Lu Xueru’s attention was not on the fans’ defense but on those who were shouting and cursing at her. They claimed she was not as good as Lu Qingqiao. It was like someone was controlling them, and the force could not suppress them no matter what.

She wasn’t the only one who had a headache. Si Jingsen was also listening to his family’s long-distance interrogation. His grandfather, in particular, had a huge reaction and wanted nothing more than to whip him instantly.

In contrast to their headache, Lu Qingqiao returned to the suite to work after dinner while Qin Xun said he wanted to take a walk outside.
