Chapter 42 - Restarting the Storm

Lin Xia Hua slanted her eyes at him. Only then did she feel that there was something wrong with her position. Her face blushed a little. "Then you should put me down first."

Mingjiang teased, "What if I don't give up?"

Lin Xia Hua spitted out and her body twisted before jumping down from the crook of Ming Jiang's arm.

The atmosphere in the room was very loving. Unbeknownst to him, there were a few flashing lights at the entrance.

The next day, Lin Xia Hua was woken up by the ringing of her phone. When she opened her eyes, it was not even 7 o'clock, but her name was still flashing crazily on the screen.

"What are you doing?" Lin Xiashua answered the phone with his eyes closed. She was very sleepy, she had been busy until three o'clock last night.

Lin Xia Hua was roused by the shouting. She slowly got up from the bed and turned on the computer.

Needless to say, the advertisement page from the window was her headshot. The title was explosive: Lady Yi Mo, Lin Xia Hua, and her lover were kidnapped in the middle of the night. Or she could do something against the male model in the name of a competition.

Opening the title, Lin Xia Hua's back felt a wave of numbness. The picture inside was the scene where she almost fell down and was picked up by Ming Jiang yesterday.

As the name gradually became clear in her mind, Lin Xia Hua helplessly smiled, "My good sister, you sure are good at handling matters."

He didn't know what Xu Zhimo would think of her after he found out.

Even if her negative news spread like wildfire, she would still participate in any competitions that she should participate in. Today was the competition for the top six. It was an important event and she could not allow herself to make any mistakes.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Lin Xia Hua opened the door to take a look. Ming Jiang was standing outside, cautiously looking at her.

"What's wrong? You came this early? " Lin Xia Hua revealed a smile.

"Have you seen all the news?" Ming Jiang asked.

"Ha, he called me early in the morning to let me see." Lin Xia Hua pretended to be relaxed.

"What do you want to do? I will fully cooperate with you. " Ming Jiang spoke with sincerity. If it wasn't for his playful attitude, no one would have caught him.

"We're innocent of each other, aren't we? There's nothing much to explain, so you should prepare yourself. We'll be going to the venue in a while. " Lin Xia Hua looked indifferent.

With her back facing Ming Jiang, she silently clenched her fists.

Was he going to use such a despicable method to deal with her? Nutmeg was getting more and more outrageous. She definitely wouldn't be defeated by such a level of framing. Nothing could stop her from having her own life.

When they reached the backstage of the competition, Lin Xia Hua went to her workbench. Mingjiang, as the model, was also there to accompany her.

"Sigh, isn't she that Lady Xu who has been robbed and has a relationship with others?"

"That's right, the one beside her is her model. The two of them hugged each other in the middle of the night in the same room."

"Tsk tsk, he really has a lot of face. If it was me, I wouldn't even be able to go out."

"That's right, to be so brazenly exposed behind her husband's back even after he was found out. Truly shameless."

"Stop talking, it's not good for her to hear about it."

"Tsk, if you have the guts, why are you afraid of others talking about it?"

Lin Xia Hua pursed her lips. There were many people backstage discussing her. Although she was deliberately suppressing her voice, she could still be heard in such a large area backstage.

She could only pretend not to hear the rumors. She was at the heart of the struggle, and if she were to start a dispute with them, it would only be disadvantageous for her.

As long as he knew his place, it was fine.

The six finals began very quickly. For some reason, there were many reporters below the stage today.

When it was time for Lin Xia-Hua's shopping mall, she composed herself and walked out with Mingjiang. The designer wanted to explain her design philosophy when the models left the stage.

However, the moment she appeared on stage, the audience was flooded with flashes of light. The reporters who had been holding back for a long time were already agitated. They desperately leaned forward, trying their best to hold the microphone to Lin Xia Hua's mouth.

"I heard that you have an illicit relationship with the male models around you?"

"Can you explain to us what happened to the online map?"

"Did you go through some unspoken rules to be able to make it into the top six?"

The reporters' questions were getting more and more immoral. Lin Xia Hua, who was standing on stage, was finally at a loss. Even if she was mentally prepared, this kind of situation was still a bit too embarrassing for a girl.

Ming Jiang took half a step back without saying a word. It wasn't that he didn't protect Lin Xia Hua, but because he had seen through the rules of the entertainment circle, he knew that as long as he said one word, Lin Xia Hua would be in an even more irrevocable abyss.

"I don't have any!" Lin Xia Hua's retort was quickly drowned out by the questions coming from the reporters.

"Miss Lin, if you don't speak, then you are silently admitting that this is all true?"

"It seems like the two of them really did get along a long time ago. Otherwise, they wouldn't have such tacit understanding, right?"

"Miss Lin, you still have a husband and wife. Do you think your husband knows all of this at will?"

The reporters were all excited. What a good headline news! The moment they opened their mouths, they were even more unrestrained.

Lin Xia Hua was a bit helpless. She had never faced such a situation before and all her questions were fake. However, she had no way of speaking up, as long as she spoke the words then they would be interpreted differently.

What should he do? What should she do? Was he just going to let them discredit him like that?

Just as Lin Xia Hua was biting her lips and trying her best to endure, a familiar male voice suddenly came from behind her, "Who let you take the photos?"

Lin Xia Hua subconsciously turned her head just in time to see Xu Yi Mo striding towards her.

"She's my wife, and the pictures were made up for her innocence. Is that enough explanation?" Xu Yimo stood beside Lin Xiashua with a cold glint in his eyes, sweeping his gaze over the reporters.

"But our photographers have verified that the pictures are real." Below, there were even reporters who did not fear death and wanted to dig up valuable material, trembling as they spoke.

"Oh? Your photographer? Let him come up to the stage to talk to me. I've already confirmed that it's synthetic. Who dares to say that it's an original? " Xu Zhimo slightly raised his head. The aura that he had been holding on to for a long time was suddenly released. For a time, no one dared to speak carelessly again.

"The man next to her is someone I've known for a long time, he wouldn't do such a thing, and I will definitely get to the bottom of those synthesized pictures. If I see my wife's name in any of the reports, go back and ask the owner of your newspaper if he can bear the consequences of provoking me." Xu Yimo's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an aura that made people not dare to resist.
