Be Careful, Scum Dad! Mommy Is Back!-Chapter 104 - I Really Like You
Chapter 104 -104 I Really Like You
Graduated for seven years.
He was no longer the impoverished heartthrob from back then.
The tailor-made suit he wore and the driver waiting near the Bentley all signaled a change in his status and identity.
Song Henian appeared calm, but his heart rate had been escalating ever since he heard her words.
“You’re so outstanding, is it a surprise that I fell for you?”
Lu Xining was surprised by his candidness, then nodded, “It is a surprise, given that we haven’t seen each other in seven years.”
“Seven years or even seventy, I would still like you,” Song Henian said, staring at her intently, as if unlocking crucial meridians for emotions, unexpectedly blunt for his personality.
He stood earnestly in front of her, “Lu Xining, I truly like you.”
In the dim twilight, the infatuated young man shed his youthful naivety, laying bare his heart for all to see.
The apricot eyes gazing back at him were colder than the moonlight overhead.
Lu Xining’s face showed no shyness, her rose-petal-like lips slightly curling, “I’m honored to be liked by someone as outstanding as you.”
“Thank you for your feelings, but I’m sorry, I don’t feel the same,” she replied.
Listening to her rejection in person, Song Henian wasn’t at all surprised.
“I know.”
He looked at her intensely, “But could you give me a chance to pursue you?”
Lu Xining was satisfied with her current life, with three children around her; she wasn’t interested in romantic affairs.
“Song Henian, don’t waste your time on me when it comes to matters of the heart.”
Song Henian gave a pained smile, “You really are…”
She knew she was being too direct, but it spared her many unnecessary troubles.
Lu Xining shrugged, “It’s just who I am.”
“If you ever need help in the future, just say so. My kids are waiting for me; I must go now.”
She nodded at him and quickly walked away.
As soon as she got in the car, she received a video call from Ji Chao, seeing three cheerful faces immediately calmed her heart, her attention completely drawn to her children.
The subsequent development of events was much faster than Lu Xining had anticipated.
She had Haozi monitor the online situation in advance, ready to take down any posts that appeared with pictures of her children the moment they did!
This 𝓬ontent is taken from freeweɓnovel.cѳm.
That night,
New accounts mushroomed online, all posting pictures from her hidden marriage period.
“This woman is a habitual mistress! She was married before, but she was divorced after her husband discovered her affair!”
Lu Xining opened a photo that showed her at a party corner, drunk and blocked by a middle-aged man.
Only the man’s back was visible, potbellied and affluent-looking, while her entire face was exposed to the camera, though her chin was edited to look unnaturally sharp.
Scrolling through the comments, they were indeed accusing her of being disgusting, having a plastic surgery face, and shaming women.
The comments relentlessly fueled the anger online.
“Today I am doing what’s morally right! Three years ago, my (former) uncle was seduced by this woman, abandoned his wife with whom he started from scratch, and neglected their two children, not giving a dime in child support! Because this woman took all his assets, which were earned together by my aunt and (former) uncle! This is outrageous!”
“And my family too! My dad is sixty years old, almost in the coffin, and she didn’t spare him either! She even tricked him out of his several hundred thousand life savings, truly shameless!”
“I was her college classmate, her family was impoverished, and during college, she began seducing other students’ boyfriends, and all her tuition and expenses were drawn from dangling men!”
Lu Xining casually browsed through.
Incredibly, she saw many photos from the period of her hidden marriage, attending gatherings of affluent wives.
Standing alone aside from the harmonious atmosphere of the other affluent ladies, she appeared particularly lonely.
Netizens seemed to have found their point of attack, slamming her in comments as reckless, shameless, and a disgrace to women, increasing by hundreds.
At this moment, Chen Li suddenly deleted her previous video and posted a photo of herself with red, tearful eyes.
It poured oil into the already vigorous flames, catapulting them to a peak.
“Why did Li Zi suddenly delete the video, was she threatened?”
Chen Li didn’t explain, but minutes later, she liked that comment.
Netizens, as if finding directions in a lost wilderness, fervently typed curses.
“My friend owns a cafe opposite the police station; I saw Li Zi leave in tears this evening, while her fiance was pampering his mistress! (attached a collage)”
“Such arrogance! Sisters, charge, let’s dig out this mistress’s home and work addresses! We absolutely cannot let this vile person live a good life!”
The night bred darkness in human nature.
Self-righteous netizens, treading on the line of the law, tried to gather more scandalous information on Lu Xining.
Apart from those few banquet photos actively shared by anonymous accounts, no other photos of her could be found.
Even her personal information seemed to be protected by some force.
Several hateful, personal attacks, and curses wishing death upon her family were deleted before they could even be posted by platform rules.
This further touched the rage point of the netizens.
They attributed all these to the “powers” behind Lu Xining, even labeling her with the tag of dark forces, constantly tagging various official accounts, demanding a thorough investigation into her.
Chen Li, lying in her bed browsing through comments, had a gleeful smile of triumph in her eyes.
She waited for the scene where Lu Xining would be cast out like a street rat by everyone, the consequences of offending her, Chen Li!
Little did she know that the moment she set her phone down, online information about Lu Xining was wiped clean.
Meanwhile, tax evasion, financial fraud news of the Chen Family topped the trending searches.
Simultaneously, certain affairs suppressed by her father with money years ago resurfaced online.
In the quiet hotel suite,
The dim warm light of the study’s wall lamp diffused around, casting deep shadows beneath meticulous brows and inky eyes that turned frosty upon reading the online comments.
Yan Dong stood at the table, “President Ji, everything has been cleaned up.”
Ji Muye pinched the bridge of his weary nose, asking softly about Lu Xining’s status, “How is she?”
Yan Dong: “Madam has been home since returning from the police station, but the light in her study stayed on until early morning.”
The table still had many documents waiting for Ji Muye’s attention, his distinct fingers tapping lightly on the table, aware that Lu Xining was not one to sit passively; she might be brewing something.
Ji Muye: “Keep an eye on her, fully support her.”
