BXBX NOVEL Chapter 105 - Unkind Speculation
With that realisation, the group of the reporters suddenly surged towards her in hopes of getting to her ahead of others. When she saw the horde of reporters rushing towards her with their big and small equipment, the expression on her face changed and she subconsciously took a stumbling step back.
Upon seeing this, a bodyguard stood protectively in front of her and blocked the reporters from approaching.
The guards sent by Jingyi Wang were highly skilled. With their competent training, they easily held off the paparazzi. In fact, just a few of them standing there menacingly with their hulking figures and deadly expression was enough to keep the reporters at bay.
They did not dare to approach.
In a car few meters away, the man in the car raised his head to see that the reporters and fans had flee. He followed them with his gaze and saw them chase after a sweet looking girl with their cameras.
The reporters were deterred by the girl\'s bodyguards from drawing closer and could only follow her.
He stepped out of his car and a few security men from the villa rushed over to protect him.
He walked towards the scene.
"Xiao li, I\'m your fan. Can I take a picture with you?" One of the fans asked excitedly.
Xiao li heard this and her lips twisted subconsciously.
Fan?
Where did these fans come from?
She had never acted in any movie before or went out as a celebrity, so where did they come from?
Seeing her reaction, the rest of the crowd surged forward as well. They hurled difficult questions and insinuation her that even the media has trouble asking.
"Xiao li, didn\'t you get killed by Jingyi Wang? Tell us why he spare you?"
Xiao li lips twisted uncontrollably.
"Are you really an item with Jingyi Wang? Do you like him?"
"Were you secretly dating him and didn\'t let the public know?"
"Are you taking advantage of him after knowing that he loves you dearly? Do you really love Jingyi Wang or you are just using him because of his wealth and power?"
Someone made an unkind speculation in the crowd. The person\'s voice was loud and clear.
Taking advantage?
Using him?
Before Xiao li could find the right word to say, the person continued, "It\'s fine if you don\'t like him, but from what I can see, you are just making use of his popularity"
Xiao li was taken aback and at loss for words. She looked at the person that talked and saw the vicious and deadly look on the person\'s face.
She was shocked.
The girl looked as if she was going to kill her any time soon with her eyes.
At that moment, something came up in her mind- this girl liked Jingyi Wang.
Xiao li\'s eyes widened in shock and surprise.
If this girl didn\'t like him, she wouldn\'t have said those harsh words.
She looked around and scanned the crowd. She could see a few unfriendly and suspicious gazes filled with disdain.
Perhaps, some were indeed kind and spoke up to support Xiao li, but there were definitely a few who were unable to hide their evil intention.
The girl spoke up again, "Leave Jingyi Wang alone!. You are not worthy of his love!. He deserves someone better!"
As soon as the girl spoke up, others instantly followed along and uttered the same sentiments.
"Yes, that\'s right. Leave Jingyi Wang alone!"
"Please, leave him!"
"Get the hell out of his life!"
The bodyguards tried to push the reporters and craze fans away, but they didn\'t budge. Instead, they began to move forward.
However, at that moment, a tall and well built figure suddenly burst through the crowd.
The man pushed the people aside, his actions urgent and tyrannical; until he stood in front of Xiao li. His palm held her face as he looked at her with a nervous gaze.
"Are you alright?" his voice was low and a little hoarse.
Upon hearing this, Xiao li was dumbstruck. Her mind was completely befuddled. Due to the sudden occurrence, her brain had short circuited, and she was unable to piece things together to understand what was going on.
The crowd was shocked into stillness, unable to wrap their heads around this scene in front of them.
When he rushed through the crowd earlier, everyone had noticed him in that instant. It was not anything else apart from the fact that he stood out in the crowd.
He was tall and straight, almost a shoulder taller than the woman in front of him. The latter was considered lanky for her height, yet she was easily dwarfed by him for reaching up to his chest level.
A well ironed white suit covered his fit body and his perfectly straight, long legs. A black jacket, long enough to reach his knees was draped on his shoulders. He had a scorching pretty and flirtatious aesthetic.
He was a combination of beauty and fine looks.
Right now, in his eyes, he had only Xiao li.
"Little Lili" he called out her name softly as he hugged her tightly.
At that moment, Xiao li was stunned. She looked at his face, "You..."
The man lowered his head and smiled at her, "Do you recognize me now?"
The man standing before her had deeply sparkling like Zhi Ruo. Every inch of his features was perfect. In addition to a suave profile with delicate and sharp features, he had a high nose bridge and floaty lips. He looked like a sculpture of a master craftsman.
