You're My Only Star

Chapter 182 - Lu Xun's Press Release

Over the internet, the netizens were in frenzy. From the moment President Lu Xun's dating news was published on the internet, there were a group of people who were betting on how long the news was going to stay online.

Most of them were betting that the news was going to stay online for two or three hours tops.

Hours passed. By lunch hours, the netizens were dumbfounded upon seeing that the news has not been deleted. 

Some were wondering if perhaps there was a problem with President Lu Xun's PR team. While some were wondering that perhaps this time, this rumor was no longer a rumor.

A lot of speculation came out and the discussion heated up even further. 

They had thought that President Lu was going to deny his relationship with the girl or perhaps he was going to say that this girl has been harassing him. The hugging scene might also be nothing but accidental.

It was only after lunch hour that they finally saw that NEXT Group had finally posted something online to address the picture that has been circulating online.

The moment they clicked at the press release, everyone was dumbfounded. Unlike the previous statement, this one was written personally by President Lu Xun himself.

In this press release, President Lu Xun had admitted that the girl who was photographed with him is his girlfriend. However, because his girlfriend is just someone from an ordinary family, he did not want to reveal her identity. At the end of his statement, President Lu Xun had hoped that everyone would pray for his happiness and that they will respect their privacy.

After reading this statement, the netizens were in disbelief. It took them a while before they could react.

Then, the discussion room was exploding again. Everyone was discussing this unexpected press release.

Some of the netizens had so much free time in their hands that they decided to try and find out the identity of this girlfriend. However, no matter how much they tried to investigate, no one was able to find out a thing.

This person was not a celebrity or an heiress. Other than a glimpse of her silhouette, there was nothing that they could find about her.

A netizen who claimed to be a staff in NEXT Group came out to say something. The rumors that President Lu Xun was dating had spread a while ago. The only people who had seen this girlfriend were those who worked on the President's floor. However, everyone was not going to say a thing lest they were going to lose their job.

Shi An Na was having a break in the pantry when she saw this news. Her grip on her phone tightened. Shi An Na read the press release over and over again until her eyes reddened with tears.

This was not what she wanted to see when she had tipped the reporter.

Shi An Na was very sure that Lu Xun was going to deny his relationship with that vixen the moment the media released that photograph. Wasn't that what he always do?

Why was it different this time?

Could it be that Lu Xun was serious this time?

He really loved that vixen? But how? That country bumpkin could not even be compared to her. Shi An Na was very confident that if Lu Xun would have to choose between the two of them, he would definitely not choose Song Xing Xing.

After all, the two of them had been with each other for so long. Shi An Na was sure that Lu Xun had loved her so much that he was not willing to move on and be in a relationship with another girl.

Her heart was aching.

As she thought of how much Lu Xun had tried to protect that vixen, Shi An Na's anger rose. If one stumbled into her at this time, they would be able to see the hatred in her eyes.

She was not happy. Shi An Na was determined to do something to ruin their relationship. However, at this time, someone had come to find her and reported that the big boss was looking for her,

Taking a deep breath, Shi An Na went to see her big boss. This was the job that she had finally secured in Capital City. Her position was quite high and her salary was satisfying. It was hard for her to get this job and she wanted to give her boss a good impression.

However, the moment she walked into her boss's office, Shi An Na was told that she will have to be relocated to another country and that she will have to depart immediately or lose this job. It was hard for her to finally secure her job. She cannot lose another job at this time.

…

A while after Lu Xun had released the statement, Song Xing Xing received a text message from  Lu Xun telling her that he would not be able to come and meet her later.

The dating news was still fresh. The reporters would be following him around to find out the identity of the girl that he was dating. Because of this, they had to keep things low-key until he figured out a way for them to meet freely.

Song Xing Xing was about to return to her office when her phone started to ring again. This time, it was her sister-in-law, Han Yue Xiu.

"Xing Xing, have you seen the news?" Han Yue Xiu asked the moment the call was connected.

"Sister-in-law, do you mean that dating news?"

"Un." 

"How did you figure out it was me?"

Han Yue Xiu clicked her tongue. "Xing Xing, his girlfriend better be you." She laughed and continued, "He already said that he is pursuing you. If Lu Xun dared to admit that he was dating someone else, your cousin brother will slaughter him."

"It couldn't be that serious, right?"

"What do you think?" Han Yue Xiu raised a brow. "A lot of people are still discussing this news. Do you want to do something about it? Even without your Cousin Brother's help, I can do something and let the news disappear."

Song Xing Xing laughed. "It's fine. We already discussed this matter before he posted that press release. As long as they did not find out my identity, I'm fine with it. Sister-in-law, my parents would not find out about this, right?"

"Your parents did not pay attention to the entertainment news. It will be fine. Your Cousin Brother and I are not going to say a word."

Song Xing Xing heaved a sigh. If she wanted her parents to know, it would be best if they heard the news through her mouth. Or else, she would not know how to control the situation.

"The reporters will be busy trying to find out your identity," Han Yue Xiu said.. "Xing Xing, these days, you have to be careful."
