Chapter 139 - The grand plan (2/2)

Wan Jia balled her fists and blinked rapidly to avoid tears from falling.

This was totally the case of being robbed and then being accused of robbery.

Well, it was way worse. This involved more than five lives. All thanks to The Yuns' influence on the news, the matter had blown up and practically everyone had heard of it.

Everywhere she went, she would hear people gossip about the girl who was so ungrateful as to kill her own family. They called her a psychopath and a monster, a devil in the guise of an angel. Wan Jia did not even feel like going out of the house anymore.

Lin Lihua too suffered endless insults from her fans for siding with a criminal.

”What's your plan?” She asked Lu Aotian softly.

”How did you know I have a plan?”

”You just told me to trust you. Doesn't that mean you have a way of handling it?” She said as she playfully pinched his arms.

Lu Aotian let her pinch him to her satisfaction. ”Turns out my darling is not entirely silly.” He smiled.

”Are you saying that I'm silly?” She was unhappy.

”Not anymore.” Before she could complain, he added. ”Let it be a surprise then.”

”Okay. I wouldn't understand it if you told me some of those complicated methods of yours anyway.” She said.

”Let's go to sleep. It's getting late.” He said and swept her off her feet.

”Aotian, aren't you scared?” She asked with slightly wet eyelashes.

”What should I be scared about?”

”You know what they say, the company you keep depicts your character. Don't you know that you will forever be labelled as the psycho's husband? Even worse, Little Jia will be called the murderer's daughter?”

Lu Aotian silently took her into his room and lay her gently on the huge soft bed. ”You should know better than anyone if you're a murderer or not.”

”But the news...you know not everyone will believe my innocence, right? It just had to happen when I'm slightly popular. Couldn't it happen before I became known?” She sighed.

Lu Aotian kissed her forehed. ”Don't think too much about it. You have me by your side. Even if you were really a bad person, I would stand by your side. Let alone now that you are innocent.”

Wan Jia put her insecurities aside and nestled in his embrace. With constant comfort from her man, she drifted off to sleep.
