Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain

Hmmm Chengming-gege, said Zhong Yuhuan softly. It was just like old times. Her voice was soft and delicate.

Huo Chengming had heard it many a times in the past.

But this time seemed to have overlapped with the very first time he heard it. He felt heat radiating from his neck, ears, and chest.

Huo Chengming parted his lips and wanted to say something else, but the next moment he could already hear the dial tone from his phone.

Huo Chengming had no choice but to swallow up what he was going to say.

But the Chengming-gege from earlier stayed inside him, bouncing back and forth and wouldnt go anywhere.

Zhong Yuhuan put down her phone and touched her ear.

Huo Chengmings tone just now suddenly reminded her of his real identity. He was the boss villain.

Zhong Yuhuan let out a breath and thought to herself; his ears used to turn red when she called him gege when he was a kid. Now he asked for it proactively.

Tsk.

Men!

They are all up to no good!

The show that Li Jinyuan was in had quickly moved into season 3.

He was up on most trending searches again and many netizens were referring to him as Puppy Love Face of the Citizens. They believed that nobody would not want to be in love with him given his look and constitution!

Li Jinyuan became super popular on the web at an astonishing speed. His fans had further increased to 5 million in a matter of weeks!

By the time season 4 was on air, Xu Yunhui and Xu Yushans trials were over.

Xu Yunhui was sentenced to life in prison and the latter 3 years of prison time.

That was the result of Xu Yushan pushing everything she could onto Xu Yunhui.

A scandal of this magnitude involving a prominent family would, of course, become news. All the media outlets were fighting over reporting the news.

Even Lang Jinzhi read that in the newspaper.

It wasnt a big deal for everyone under the sun to learn about the crimes of Xu Yunhui and her daughter. Problem was when the focus was the scandal of a prominent family. They would be locked onto the Zhongs and that would turn into harassment for Zhong Yuhuan.

When Secretary Cheng came into his office carrying some documents, Lang Jinzhi looked up and said to him in a low voice, Go and let them know that they can do all the reporting that they want, but do not go harass Zhong Yuhuan.

Secretary Cheng nodded and said, Okay.

Secretary Cheng was a man of high efficiency. After he had put down the documents, he immediately picked up the newspaper on Lang Jinzhis desk, took it with him, and quickly contacted all the newspapers and media.

All he needed to do was say a few words to each; it was nothing difficult to take care of.

To put it bluntly, the media never worried about anyone else. They didnt care for actors/actresses nor did they care about prominent families or wealthy businessmen, but they did care for Lang Jinzhi and his sort. Lang Jinzhi didnt even need to say the words himself, even when it was just his secretary who passed on his words, that would be sufficient to get them to behave themselves.

The very next day, Zhong Yuhuan immediately noticed significantly fewer reporters waiting outside of her house.

Even the maid at home couldnt help but say, Even with our tight security, they somehow were still able to sneak inside. Such shameless people! Luckily, they finally know to leave on their own Miss almost couldnt even walk out of the house because of them.

Zhong Yuhuan, curled up on the couch, smiled mildly and didnt say anything.

Assistant Zhao was reporting to her the recent activities of the company and even made Zhong Yuhuan a cup of black tea. The black tea was brought back from England by Zhong Yuhuan previously. Black tea in hand, Zhong Yuhuan asked in a low voice, Xu Xing should have found out about it by now? What was his reaction about all this?
