She spoke as if everything was for Luo Xi’s sake.
“Is that so?” When Luo Xi saw the photo, she immediately suspected it was taken by Lin Xuan. After all, the photo was so clear, whereas all the photos circulating online were mostly blurred or marked with Weibo watermarks. The fact that Lin Xuan showed her a photo without any of those meant it wasn’t from the internet. Then she must have taken it herself.
Lin Xuan thought Luo Xi hadn’t seen the news online and mistakenly believed she would focus on the mistress instead of the photo itself.
Seeing Luo Xi’s unpleasant expression, she assumed the photos she released had offended Luo Xi. She secretly laughed at her.
Once Lin Xuan left, Luo Xi’s face fell darkly.
Leng Minxing had even called an emergency meeting today because of this.
Just these few photos had caused him such a stir.
When he returned home, his expression was stern, clearly unhappy.
“Is it a big deal?” Luo Xi stepped forward to take his suit jacket, asking gently.
“It’s nothing serious, just a bunch of people making noise. Most people online have no idea what the Leng Corporation even is.” Leng Minxing reached out to stroke her head, afraid she would feel pressured.
The people online were unaware of anything, so they were merely following the trend, believing whatever gossip they heard.
“Hmph! But those people actually called me a mistress. It’s absolutely intolerable!” Luo Xi clenched her fists.
Leng Minxing was both amused and exasperated, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes. He remembered the names of those who had insulted her.
“And I know who took the photos,” she said in a serious voice, recalling Lin Xuan.
Leng Minxing raised an eyebrow. “Who?”
“Your restless cousin! She secretly took a photo of me getting into your car and used it to annoy me. She probably didn’t recognize it was me, so she mistook me for the mistress and sent the photos online to provoke me.” Luo Xi snorted with contempt.
Leng Minxing’s eyes turned cold. He hadn’t expected it to be Lin Xuan. She had only been back a few days and had already caused such trouble. It seemed the previous lesson he had given her was too lenient.
Before this, nobody dared to discuss the matter because those in the company who knew Luo Xi’s true identity recognized her as the madam, while those who didn’t know thought they were simply a couple. That was perfectly normal, and nobody would dare spread rumors online. Besides, no one in the company had the guts to do so.
Lin Xuan likely misidentified the person getting into the car as someone else, thinking he was keeping a mistress at the company and purposely had someone post it online to ruin his reputation.
Originally, Leng Minxing had no intention of interfering with Lin Xuan’s affairs. He hadn’t even stopped her from getting engaged to Feng Lingye. But now, she had completely touched his sore spot.
“Alright, I’ll handle the rest.” He patted her head before leading her upstairs.
The next day, a trending topic titled #Future Young Madam of the Feng Family Spotted with Ex-Boyfriend# exploded online.
Clicking into it revealed a woman and her boyfriend in an intimate photo. How intimate? She was wearing a bikini, riding on the man’s shoulders, and the two were even seen kissing passionately. It was enough to make netizens’ noses bleed, and they immediately began speculating about who the woman might be. Although many were unfamiliar with these upper-class figures, it wasn’t typical for netizens to pass on juicy gossip, and before long Lin Xuan’s Weibo was dug up.
