Empress of the Entertainment World
Chapter 122 Claimed: Defending Her Honour**************
CHAPTER 122
The more she stared at the screen, the more she shook her head every now and then making sure she was not sleeping or worse.
"With the big reveal, the crowd and social media fans are going head over heels for the heartbreak this caused. There is no doubt many girls had their hearts crushed over this."
Andromeda tapped away on her thigh subconsciously while her gaze remained on the screen waiting for the name of the person to appear.
She saw a picture alright but who knows, we all have our look alike.
"Going on air this morning, and on the internet, CEO of Liu Corporation, Liu Xueyi identified himself as the unknown man in the video, stating the new top designer, Andromeda Kai was his girlfriend."
Badum - Badum!
Her eyes blinked uncontrollably at the TV screen while her brain worked wonders trying to follow up with her ears.
"The video was uploaded today with him clearly stating that anyone who violates the law by defaming her would face serious consequences by the law." The newscaster reported.
She swallowed hard feeling the intensity behind the words.
"While this threat was obviously powerful, what the media is on fire about, is one of2 how long her secret relationship had been with him."
"Okay, Ruo Chang-er. I know this sounds a bit off, but it is their privacy. Let's watch the video and get a glimpse of what the CEO is saying. Over to you."
Andromeda waited and the next thing she saw on the screen was Liu Xueyi seated live at his office with his hands on the table and fingers intertwined.
The moment the video began, he took in a deep breath, and smile at the camera before letting his gaze dim and all traces of a smile disappeared.
"My name is Liu Xueyi. CEO of Liu Corporation and I am going to clear the air today."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer breathing stopped suddenly as she saw that same serious look he always wore when he was about to do something dreaded.
"Andromeda Kai is my girlfriend and I am the man in that video. How it got out or who filmed us still remains a mystery but I promise to get the culprit and have them face justice."
"Liu Xueyi, what are you doing?" She breathed out slowly, unable to comprehend why he would latch himself to her doom like that.
"It is normal for lovers in a relationship to be together and my girlfriend and I are no exception. Therefore, to this effect, anyone found defaming her wrongly would face the full extent of the law."
She shut her eyes briefly, taking in deep breaths while he continued.
"The sites that fanned the flames of the news yesterday are being held responsible. So, be warned."
Her cheeks puffed up into a wanton smile as she listened on.
"As for being called a slut," she pried her eyes open and saw his gaze hold a certain dread some more, taking a well-deserved pause.
It was obvious to anyone he was pained by how they treated her and was now taking justice for her.
"I believe everyone saw for themselves, the extent of her work and brilliance. This further shows the envy and greed of people, planting secret cameras in our hotel room and releasing this right after her debut in the fashion show."
'He sure is brilliant, that's for sure.' Andromeda mentally noted.
No longer did the same fear that clouded her heart remain anymore but now she was calm, watching him defend her openly.
At that moment all she had was a heart full of thanks for him.
"But one thing I can say is that no matter what they do, no one's design in this country can outsmart hers. This is my warning. There would be no more."
She did not wait to hear more comments from the newscasters and immediately picked up her phone again and went online to check the ruckus that was going on.
Her heart raced in her chest just having his words being replayed in her mind as she saw comments.
There were a lot of people crying, wishing to have been the one in the video he was making love to.
Some openly quarrelled and complained to their heartthrob.
As though that wasn't enough, there were those using anonymous accounts, stating she was a thief and that her designs were somewhat identical to Divine Pearl's.
Although it was only one of her outfits they could pinpoint for comparison, Andromeda was unfazed by their words.
She had expected this and more honestly.
Just that she never expected Wu Bai to have a video of her first ever sexual experience.
It only made her hatred for him to heighten.
"If they want to dig their grave, then who am I to stop them? Go ahead Wu Bai. I shall end you all." She thought within her.
Gradually, Andromeda peeled her gaze back to her phone screen, going through the numerous comments on his youtube channel.
While others complained, there were those who apologized and stated it was wrong to listen to one side of the story and then judged.
Also, they were quick to note that she really wasn't a slut but some people were out to get her due to jealousy.
Some shamed the lies and those who spread them, having several others back them up.
His supportive fans called it out, stating their Liu Xueyi would never date a slut and they were so wrong calling her that.
Many blessed their union, hoping the couple would tie the knot soon.
Different comments on different sites erupted like wide fire.
It was even worse when someone made mention of Liu Xueyi resembling a star.
"Is it just me or does the CEO have a similar body structure to the star Ye Yuan?" one of the commenters mentioned.
"No way!" Another typed out.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Yes, way. Now that you mentioned it, there is a bit of similarity."
"Are you kidding me? Oh my God!"
"Wow, she is so lucky. Be it Liu Xueyi or Ye Yuan, body-wise or not. I just want one of them for myself. Lol. ( * <) Fangirling bunch. I love these two men."
"I want them too. Together."
"I would always love Ye Yuan, then Liu Xueyi."
"No Liu Xueyi is the best."
Andromeda's eyes went wide when she saw the first comment.
'Liu Xueyi resembles someone else?' She voiced in her mind.
'Oh my God! What if he knows and that was why he choose to be the one to cover up for me? No. No. There must be a bigger explanation.' Andromeda contemplated in her mind.
She exited the site and was about to place a call to him when Gu Jun's call came in.
"Hey princess."
"Gu Jun, you saw?"'
"Of course, I saw. He acted like your night in shining armour. Now those souls would know better than to bully my Andromeda."
"Yeah but…" she paused, swallowing her words.
As much as she wished to tell him, she thought she needed to make her search herself.
"Andromeda?"
"No. Do not worry. It is okay. I would place a call to him."
"Okay, then. As you please. Do enjoy your day and rest up, okay?"
"Sure."
