Beg Me to Remarry

Chapter 705: Chapter 708: No Problem with Getting Married Directly

Bai Wei seriously contemplated for a moment before equally seriously saying to Fu Han, "I think your suggestion is great. Why don’t you go and tell Luo Qinghe to get married today? I have no objection."

Fu Han’s eyes widened in disbelief. She had only meant to tease Bai Wei and gleefully watch a spectacle unfold; she never expected... Okay, she admitted that she had misjudged how much Bai Wei wanted to marry Luo Qinghe.

The makeup artist had already been waiting in Bai Wei’s personal waiting room. Anticipating a long and tedious makeup process, Fu Han was eager to find a place to catch up on some sleep. She hadn’t slept well the previous night after being woken up early by the sound of Bai Wei pounding on her door.

Yet Bai Wei, in a rare overflow of girlish sentimentality, adamantly refused to let Fu Han leave her side and insisted on having her company, claiming she was too nervous and scared to be alone.

Although Fu Han felt her eyelids heavy, she could completely understand Bai Wei’s complex emotions, recalling her own nervousness when she got engaged.

Bai Wei was like a wooden doll in front of the dressing table, her mouth nonstop chattering away; Fu Han half-heartedly chatted with her while idly opening her phone to browse the web out of sheer boredom.

No sooner had she turned on her phone did a message pop up with an eye-catching headline: "Xia Group’s heiress and the nightclub prince’s romantic escapade couldn’t be more scandalous."

Fu Han had speculated that morning about how Ji Liangchuan and Xia Ning would react upon waking up—whether they would break down crying or angrily come to blows. Seeing the news, she immediately opened the video on her phone.

As soon as she started the video, a noisy clamor filled the air, followed by the incessant clicking of cameras—a voice repeatedly could be heard pleading in the video not to take any more photos.

But despite the commotion, the footage was quite clear.

The location was Xia Ning’s hospital ward. Though Xia Ning was wrapped in a blanket, the smooth expanse of her shoulders and arms was visible; Ji Liangchuan, on the other hand, was bare-chested.

Even though their lower bodies were obscured, their clothes, including clearly identifiable undergarments, were haphazardly scattered on the floor at the foot of the bed.

The most shocking part was that, even on her phone, Fu Han could distinctly see the strawberry marks on Xia Ning’s neck, shoulders, and chest; Ji Liangchuan’s condition wasn’t any better, with scratch marks all over his chest and back.

Any adult with a modest understanding of the birds and the bees could easily deduce that the pair had had a fierce encounter the previous night.

Fu Han only watched for a moment before feeling her cheeks flush and her heart race. She was aware of the ways of men and women but still felt embarrassed watching such scenes as a pure-hearted girl.

Yet, just as she was about to close the video, Bai Wei’s voice came from above her head: "Oh my, this is so explosive. Why are you turning it off? I want to see it too."

When had she come over? Fu Han had no idea.

Fu Han frowned with resignation, "What are you doing watching this stuff as a girl? Aren’t you afraid of getting sty in your eyes?"

"What’s the problem with that?" Bai Wei casually took Fu Han’s phone into her hands and said, "I’ve seen more sensational stuff than this; besides, it’s not as if I haven’t eaten pork before, that doesn’t mean I haven’t seen a pig run. And I’ve even done kissing scenes in the movies, okay?"

Fu Han certainly didn’t want her phone to fall into Bai Wei’s hands, so she got up quickly to try and snatch it back, speaking urgently in her haste, "Give me back my phone, go watch it on your own."

"Don’t be so stingy." Bai Wei dodged Fu Han’s hands while shamelessly saying, "My agent has reminded me several times not to use my own account to view gossip news. If my hand slips and I accidentally like it, that would cause a huge scandal."

This was indeed true. Given Bai Wei’s status in the industry, any casual action of hers could indeed be a storm. Take her engagement ceremony today—originally scheduled to start at eleven in the morning, makeup was supposed to take no more than three hours. They could’ve arrived around eight.

But Bai Wei’s agent earnestly advised her to come over early, worried that arriving late might result in her being cornered by journalists at the door, making it difficult to enter.

As a result, they arrived just before six, yet there were already quite a few journalists outside. Bai Wei managed to come in smoothly by disguising herself as crew with a face mask.

Having no other choice but to hand over her phone, Fu Han resigned herself to watching the video together with Bai Wei.

The video wasn’t long, as the swarm of journalists was soon chased away.

It was now the time when people’s alarms were going off, signaling it was time to get ready for work, yet the online discussion was bustling, almost creating a full-blown media frenzy.

But the responses varied.

Some said Ji Liangchuan was hypocritical, making high-profile declarations of love for Fu Han during the Spring Festival yet ended up in a scandalous tryst with Xia Ning at the hospital; many also dug up Ji Liangchuan’s past as the nightclub prince, labeling him a womanizer, not even worthy to be compared with He Xing.

There were even those who uncovered details about Ji Liangchuan’s ex-girlfriend, providing a complete timeline of their trips abroad. Similarly, they proved that Fu Han and Ji Liangchuan hadn’t known each other before, ruling out the possibility of He Xing taking someone else’s beloved.

Many critiqued Ji Liangchuan online, suggesting his pursuit of Fu Han was merely because she resembled his ex-girlfriend, that he was using Fu Han as a replacement and didn’t genuinely love her.

Others exposed the relationship between Xia Ning and Yang Kaitai, claiming Xia Ning hadn’t been faithful to He Xing for over a decade but had approached him deliberately, capitalizing on the Xia Family’s gratitude to morally coerce He Xing into a relationship with her.

Previously, online opinions were distorted, with many believing Ji Liangchuan was truly devoted to Fu Han and that Xia Ning was also deeply in love with He Xing. Many felt He Xing and Fu Han shouldn’t be together, thus enabling two pairs of star-crossed lovers to unite.

Though Fu Han didn’t understand why the public held such views—both she and He Xing had repeatedly clarified their relationship online to little effect, which troubled Fu Han for a long time.

She never imagined that a brief video of Ji Liangchuan and Xia Ning would completely reverse public opinion, leading to a surge of online support for He Xing and her. noveldrama

Fu Han was helpless; she didn’t anticipate last night’s events to ultimately bring her such benefits.

But something wasn’t right. He Xing had once told her that many comments online were paid for and advised her not to pay too much attention. Yet now, the comments mirrored her own feelings; how could she explain this? Had the online crowd changed, or were today’s commentators also paid in advance?
