Chapter 321 - You Failed (1/2)
The program ended later than expected. Everything was back to its calm and normal state despite the great shock the just received.
Huang Ming, Long Yiyi seated in the dressing room whilst the producer announce what's to come next since the show was interrupted, and they request for them to appear as guests again.
Everyone didn't dare question the newly couple if whether the news of their engagement is true or false. But for Long Yiyi, even if the rumors weren't true, that fact Feng Xiaotong said those cold words to her frightened her.
'What should I do? Xiaotong will surely do something to me and my family.” Long Yiyi averted his gaze from Feng Xiaotong and avoided anyone from noticing her presence at all. All she wanted was to leave and never see them again.
After the producer reschedule for another guest visit. He and his team departed and left without any further words.
Huang Ming took the opportunity to speak with the girl. ”Li Zi, should we head out for lunch?”
But before Elizabeth could even answer, Feng Xiaotong grab hold of her hands and answered him, ”Sorry, I'm taking my fiance out to lunch. You can go with her next time.”
His eyes turned dark and tempestuous from what he just heard. He stared at Feng Xiaotong on the verge to punch the man. Because of him, the girl has no choice but to act as his fiance. ”President Feng, don't be arrogant. We know why you need to do such an act. Anyway, you don't need to act as her fiance in front of me. We already know your role in her life so stop acting as if you're some hotshot.”
Feng Xiaotong ashamedly clenched his hand into a ball. He needs to keep calm and not act rationally. ”But, what I said is true. You can ask Li Zi yourself.”
Elizabeth was dumbfounded to what Feng Xiaotong meant. They never arranged such plans. Then suddenly it hit her, she recalled the conversation with her mother. She promised to bring the man and meet his family.
”Ah-”
”Li Zi, is what President Feng saying true?” Huang Ming questioned the girl directly.
”Bro Ming I'm sorry, because of what happened I...”
”You don't need to explain everything to him Li Zi, it's fine... Let's get ready, we can't keep your family waiting.” Feng Xiaotong boldly stated.
Huang Ming's anger grew every minute, but he couldn't do anything about his feelings. Right now, the man has the upper hand. His declaration of being the girl's fiance has brought him the golden ticket to winning her. 'Damn it! Why didn't I do something? Huang Ming, you're an idiot! Both of you are known for being the hottest couple yet you can't even prove you're yourself as her partner!'
Elizabeth notice the dark clouds hovering above Huang Ming. She felt so sorry for him and went over to comfort him. She grabbed hold of his hand and softly spoke, ”Bro Ming, I'm sorry... Don't worry, you know what happen was all an act. Anyway, I'll see you tomorrow.”
Despite what she said, Huang Ming was not convinced. The man is Imperial City richest heir. If the girl is to announce the engagement was a fake, it will surely cause quite a rumor around her. What's more, who in the right mind wouldn't want to be the man's fiance.
Feng Xiaotong grabs the girl's things and called her attention, ”Let's go.”
Elizabeth nodded and bid Huang Ming farewell, whilst leaving everyone in the room in shock.
Long Yiyi who seated quietly in the corner continues to worry about herself. Since she was present and overheard the quarrel between Huang Ming and Feng Xiaotong, even if everything was an act. She feared that Feng Xiaotong will surely do something to her if he finds out she was involved. ”I need to do something about what happened earlier, I need to find a way, but what?”
