Chapter 338 - A Small Fan Club
When Lu Xun walked out of the bathroom, he found that Song Xing Xing was lying on her stomach on their bed. Her hand was holding her phone tightly as she concentrated on playing the game on the phone.
Beside her, Mr. Fluffball lay down with his eyes closed. His long tails moved around lazily.
Seeing the scene in front of him made his heart grow warmer.
Lu Xun rubbed his hair with a towel and walked over. Hearing his footsteps, Song Xing Xing turned around to say something. However, the moment she sat up, her gaze fell on his abs.
He was only wearing his sleeping pants with no shirt on. The man had just gotten out of the shower and there were still droplets of water streaming down on his chest.
The scenery in front of her was too eye-catching that she had forgotten the words she wanted to say to him.
Song Xing Xing forced herself to look away from this distracting scene but soon, their eyes met. Because he was not wearing his glasses, Song Xing Xing found that she was unable to look away.
This man... did he come over to seduce her?
"Have you talked to Song Yi?"
Hearing his question, Song Xing Xing quickly snapped out of her trance. She recalled that she has been speaking to Song Yi a while before she logged into her game.
"Un. I've talked to him."
Lu Xun immediately sensed that there was something wrong with his fiance. The corner of his lips tilted up upon noticing the way her eyes darted around as if avoiding him.
"Song Yi said that he will look into the posters. Tomorrow morning, he'll give us the report."
Lu Xun looked at her for a long time before he nodded. His movement halted.
The mattress sunk as he sat down. Mr. Fluffball opened his eyes and raised his head slightly. But once he saw that it was his papa, the fat cat continued to sleep.
"Are you sure you wanted to do it this way?" Lu Xun asked. The space between his eyebrows creased and he was staring back at her with worry.
Her expression turned serious when she heard his question. "Miss Shi has been provoking me again and again. I just wanted her to stop. Although what she had done did not affect me much, it was too annoying." Her head cocked to one side. "Are you worried about her?"
Lu Xun narrowed his eyes. "Of course, not." He stretched his arms and pushed a few strands of hair behind her ear. "I'm worried about you. I don't feel comfortable knowing that there are people who talked badly about you."
"They are merely strangers who had nothing to do with me," Song Xing Xing said. "Their opinion doesn't matter."
She did not care whatever Shi An Na wanted to call her. However, she did not like it when those people talked about Lu Xun. Moreover, Song Xing Xing knew that her family would worry.
This was her way to make her family feel more at ease.
Lu Xun was relieved upon hearing her words but this does not mean that he had stopped worrying. He knew well that a woman's reputation was very important. Those strangers might not know her but their harsh words could still hurt her.
"You don't have to worry about my family. I will talk to them and my Cousin Brother will help us. Besides..." Song Xing Xing flashed him a smile. "Didn't we agree that we will clarify this matter soon? When the truth comes out, they will stop talking about it."
His eyes darkened. "Are you sure? Xing Xing, you know well what does it mean when you come out as my fiance."
All this while, it was her who wanted to continue being in a relationship with him in secret. However, once she responded to the rumor, her identity as the young miss of a reputable family from Y City will be known to the public.
After she had left Y City and pursued her study in Capital City, Song Xing Xing had always hidden her identity. None of her friends in Capital City knew about her identity.
It wasn't that she had wanted to lie to them. Back then, her thinking was too simple. She only wanted to pursue her study in a field that she liked in peace. Revealing about her family would only cause her trouble.
"I know." Song Xing Xing nodded. "But, we are already planning to get married and we have met each other's parents. It's fine if we make this relationship public. Moreover, I'm worried that if we continued to hide, there might be another girl who might come after you. It's best to announce to the world that you're mine."
Lu Xun let out a chuckle. Hearing her possessive words made him grow excited. An indescribable feeling rose from his stomach and spread all through his body.
He leaned over and kissed her lips. "Un. You're right. I'm solely yours."
...
A few days later, the rumors about Lu Xun's fiance continued to brew.
These rumors began from a blogger. His followers shared this rumor with their friends and their friends shared them with their friends.
As Lu Xun has been linked to a few popular celebrities and heiress before, there were a lot of people who had paid attention to his news. Lu Xun was not a celebrity but his look and money had made him as popular as the celebrities.
Although the major news portals had never reported this news, the rumors had gotten very big and were discussed among a lot of people.
The small fire that Shi An Na grew bigger.
Song Xing Xing coincidentally discovered that Lu Xun had a small fan club of his own and became jealous. Seeing the young girls discussing his good looks and body made her angry. Moreover, some of their discussion was a little explicit.
Those people had even called her fiance their husband!
When those people saw that President Lu Xun had not taken any action towards these rumors, the netizen grew bolder as they continued to speak badly of his fiance.
Shi An Na saw this situation and continued to hand over a few more materials about Song Xing Xing.
By the end of the week, the blogger gave out Song Xing Xing's name. The netizen was quick to find out her old address as well as her workplace.
Lu Xun watched the rumors' development and his expression grew darker.
