Chapter 1223 - Xia Yehua’s Marriage (18)

Now that Shen Zihao had joined, Xia Nuannuan would surely do the same.

The three of them turned simultaneously to look at Shen Liangchuan.

Shen Liangchuan turned around and walked to the living room, ignoring them. He picked up the newspapers and sat on the sofa.

Shen Zihao exclaimed, “Freaking hell, Sister-in-law, this person is saying that my mother not only is a tramp, but on top of that is trying to pretend to be pure!”

Qiao Lian replied, “Tell him to spend his spare time making more money, in case he can’t even afford his own gravestone in the future.”

Shen Zihao: ...

Xia Nuannuan said next, “This one says that although Mom has been able to endure this in silence, hoping time will erase it is unrealistic. That this is a matter of principle and the mistress can never fill the position of a lawful wife.”

Qiao Lian spat, “Mistress my foot! They have to stop imposing their narrow-minded views on the rest of the world. Buddha says that you see what you think. So are they all thinking of being mistresses? Specially the sort that aren’t worthy of any status?”

Xia Nuannuan said, “I don’t think that was what he meant.”

Qiao Lian replied, “Can’t remember the actual saying, but it doesn’t matter, it means the same thing.”

Xia Nuannuan: ...

Shen Zihao started again, “And this- this-”

“...”

Qiao Lian certainly had the ability to come up with stinging remarks.

After years of being a reporter, her talent with words was unrivaled.

Besides, she had a deep-seated hatred for internet violence.

In this particular instance, it was rather fortunate in a way that the victim of this issue was Mom. If it had been someone else, that person would have had no one to come to her defence and that would have been unimaginable.

At this thought, Qiao Lian continued to fire away.

An hour later.

Shen Zihao tossed his cell phone aside and complained, “There are so many comments!”

Stretching her sore arms, Xia Nuannuan said, “It’s so tiring to answer these comments one after another. To think there are thousands of them.”

Qiao Lian replied, “... Three against a crowd. Of course we are outnumbered.”

Continuing with his complaint, he said, “There are four of us here obviously.”

Qiao Lian immediately looked up at Shen Liangchuan and saw him lifting his gaze with his usual indifferent expression. He put down the magazine he was holding and picked up his cell phone. After glancing at it, he said, “Uh huh, it’s all settled.”

Qiao Lian: ??

The next moment, Shen Zihao almost fell off the sofa. He cried out in surprise, “Good grief! What’s going on? Why have we gotten so many supporters suddenly?”

Qiao Lian looked at Shen Liangchuan questioningly and he replied, “I got Song Cheng to activate online ghostwriters.”

Qiao Lian was flabbergasted.

So was that what Best Actor Shen did in the past whenever there was negative news about him?

That totally tarnished her image of him.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Given that now the comments were no longer one-sided, Qiao Lian and the rest could sit back and relax.

Frowning, Qiao Lian said, “There’s something fishy about this matter. Even though Best Actor Shen’s name is linked to it, it has blown up too quickly. It feels like there’s someone behind it.”

Shen Liangchuan frowned as well upon hearing this. He started, “That’s right, someone’s behind it. The people posting comments are ghostwriters as well.”

Qiao Lian was stumped.

So had they just been arguing with a bunch of ghostwriters?

She looked at Shen Liangchuan with a vexed expression. He replied, “Mom will be fine. It’s fine when it comes to public opinion.”

The atmosphere in the room became more relaxed at once, however, Shen Liangchuan continued, “My only fear is—”

Before he could finish speaking, the housekeeper came running in and said in a panic, “Mr. Shen, the- the members of the Zhang family have turned up with a group of men!! What do we do now? Should we call Mr. Li?”
