MY BEAUTIFUL BRIDE, VOLUME 6 - Season 10 Episode 24

Gu Jingze and Lin Che returned to their room. By Gu Xiande’s side, the few of them gathered in an anxiety-filled room.

“See how Jingze dotes on that Lin Che so much. It will become his undoing sooner or later,” one relative said.

“Exactly. I don’t know what exactly this Lin Che has that can keep him wrapped around her finger. Some maids were talking outside about how Jingze actually knelt down to suck her blood,” another relative chimed in.

“The eldest son’s wife, Yu Minmin, is clearly better than her. She keeps such a low profile and rarely shows herself.”

“What can we do about it, then? It’s going to be the same in the future and she’ll be the headmistress. When that time comes, I think… crying wolf might happen again.”

Everyone talked about how they were not happy about Lin Che’s performance.

Gu Xiande did not talk. He sat there as the tobacco burned and listened to everyone’s complaints.

“Since it is Jingze’s own choice, we must accept it.”

“Even if so, we can’t possibly watch Jingze spiral downward like this,” a relative said.

“Then what do you say we do about this?”

“How can she become the headmistress like this? So many people within the clan have no faith in her. Not even the maids believe that she can do it.”

“Since this is the case, it’s easier for us. We don’t agree with her becoming headmistress and the maids object too. Even if Jingze wishes to support her, it might not be successful.”

After Gu Jingming and Yu Minmin returned to the Gu household that day, they made an announcement at Glazed Tile Palace. Madam President was pregnant and Mr. President was preparing to welcome his firstborn child.

The whole country was jubilant. On one hand, brokenhearted ladies expressed that they also wanted to bear children for Mr. President. On the other hand, they were also elated that Gu Jingming was finally going to be a father.

The C Nationals were also very creative and could make anything marketable. Immediately, some online shops started announcing that they would hold sales on the day Madam President gives birth. Some others immediately started selling whatever pregnancy and baby products that Madam President used.

However, many were actually fake. Yu Minmin knew that most of the things she had were custom-made to deter knock-offs.

The entire nation speculated over the gender of Madam President’s child. Some websites took photos of Yu Minmin outside. She was bare-faced and had obvious swelling. However, she looked so grand when she went out. Her belly was defined and looked healthy. Thus, everyone said that she was probably having a boy.

Yu Minmin looked at these speculations at home and thought to herself speechlessly. These people really knew how to stir things up. Some websites actually held bets and whoever guessed correctly would win a prize.

On another side, news about Xue Yang was leaked at the same time as Yu Minmin’s news.

The gossip papers said, “It’s double happiness in Lin Che’s office. One is their boss, Yu Minmin’s pregnancy. The other is Xue Yang who is coupled with an agent. Just take a look at the photo. Look at how intimate Xue Yang and the agent are together!”

The photo revealed Xue Yang and Ah Bi together.

Xue Yang was holding Ah Bi’s face.

Xue Yang was putting a cap on her lovingly.

Xue Yang held a lunchbox for her. Xue Yang held a cup of water for her…

The Internet exploded.

Fresh face Xue Yang was actually a couple with an agent? Really?

However, this caused many fans to feel disgusted.

“This slut stays close to Xue Yang so that she could attract him?”

“What a leech. This is disgusting. How can she let a celebrity take care of her? Is she an agent or is she a princess? She thinks too highly of herself.”

“We don’t believe that Xue Yang would fall for a woman like this. She’s just a small agent. How dare she taint our idol?”

“Who does she think she is? Xue Yang, don’t fall into her trap. You must have been brain-washed.”

Everyone insulted Ah Bi. They dug for Ah Bi’s dirt, saying that Ah Bi looked arrogant and not like a decent woman at all. Some even dug out photos from when Ah Bi first came to C Nation. At that time, she was simply a little girl dressed up. It made people say that she was a wannabe country bumpkin who came from some unknown village.

There were many menacing comments and objections. Some fans even contacted the company directly, asking the company to switch out Xue Yang’s agent. They objected violently to Xue Yang working with such a devious agent.

At the company.

Everyone at the company barely had time to react.

Ah Bi was angry as she looked at the ugly words directed at her. She only hated how she could not refute them directly.

Lin Che was also at the company. She saw the reports and said speechlessly, “This kind of bad report is clearly done on purpose. They’re obviously attacking us.”

Ah Bi asked, “Was it me who offended someone? Or was it Xue Yang who offended someone?”

Lin Che looked at Ah Che. “I believe it is being directed more at you.”

Ah Bi said, “Damn it, it’s not like I… Fine. I may be a little offensive usually, but that’s part of being an agent.”

Xue Yang stood at the side and was also looking at the comments. He felt extremely guilty. “Ah Bi, this is all my fault.”

Ah Bi turned around and said, “This has nothing to do with you. These people have nothing better to do than to take some photos so that they can attack us.”

However, Xue Yang still could not watch her get insulted so terribly.

He sighed, took a cigarette from his pocket, and stepped out to smoke.

Lin Che said, “Sigh. Seriously. He has not experienced anything like this ever since he debuted. Male artists don’t usually have bad fans and this is especially so for a fresh face like him. Naturally, he can’t really control his emotions right now. Go comfort him later.”

Lin Che was right about this. Xue Yang was still filled with guilt. Thus, he took out his phone and thought for a long time. He published a post on Weibo to say, “Don’t insult Ah Bi. If you want, come insult me instead.”

The moment this got out, it captured a lot of attention.

There were already many people watching his Weibo. The moment they saw this, things immediately escalated.

What did this mean? Was he admitting it?

By the time people in the company realized this, the comments had already surged to thousands in mere minutes…

The company’s staff were taken aback. “Xue Yang posted this, right? He wasn’t hacked?”

“It must be him. Quick, find him!”

Xue Yang was still standing outside when Lin Che quickly hurried out the moment she heard it from Ah Bi.

“Xue Yang! What are you doing?!”

Xue Yang turned around, looking rather troubled.

Ah Bi quickly snatched his phone and deleted the post on his Weibo. “Xue Yang! Are you out of your mind?”

Xue Yang looked at Ah Bi. “As a man, how can I watch a woman get insulted because of me? They were going overboard with the insults.”

Insults like “Slut”, “bitch” and every other possible slur was already used. This made Xue Yang very upset.
