Ming Shu looked around, feeling as if she were still dreaming.
“Lele, what did you say?”
“Everyone online is spreading rumors… You should check Weibo quickly.”
Li Xiaole also didn’t believe that Lu Shiyu would cheat. He was such an extraordinary person—if he wanted to cheat… it seemed he wouldn’t need to fear anything.
Lu Shiyu was the future head of the Lu Group and the uncrowned king of the entertainment industry. Ming Shu was just a little pet in his palm. When he doted on her, he indulged her in everything; when he stopped doting, he could discard her at will. Back when Shu Zai wanted to leave Lu Shiyu, this was probably part of the reason.
Ming Shu’s delicate and radiant face stiffened, a fine layer of sweat forming on her fair forehead.
While on the phone, she hurriedly checked Weibo.
#Lu Shiyu Young Woman# Trending!
【I believe in Lu Shen’s character; he hasn’t had a single scandal since his debut!】
【Is Lu Shen really married? I don’t believe it…】
【Hey, fake fan above! Lu Shen’s wife is @Ming Shu. She’s very beautiful but doesn’t have any notable works—just a little flop star.】
【Lu Shiyu probably divorced Ming Shu, which is why he’s hugging and holding hands with his little lover while shopping at the mall.】
【Is it possible that the woman in Lu Shen’s arms is his wife?】
【Impossible! Look closely at the picture. Lu Shen is so affectionate toward the woman in his arms, reluctant to let her go, and even took off his mask to kiss her without hesitation. Lu Shen and Ming Shu had a contractual marriage—their relationship couldn’t possibly be this good.】
【Exactly. If they had a good relationship, why haven’t they been seen together even once in three years of marriage?】
【Whispering here, but I think Ming Shu is just a pretty face. She doesn’t deserve Lu Shen. Lu Shen deserves better!】
【Hahaha, you don’t need to whisper—you can say it out loud. Ming Shu really doesn’t deserve Lu Shen. Otherwise, why would the “Bingtang Couple” supertopic have only a little over a hundred followers? The public’s eyes are sharp.】
Fans and netizens, thinking they had uncovered the truth, pushed the hashtag #Lu Shiyu Ming Shu Divorce# onto the trending list.
The entire “Bingtang Couple” supertopic, with only a hundred members, was in tears.
The matter had blown up so much, with multiple hashtags trending, that Lu Shiyu and Ming Shu must have divorced. The couple they had been shipping had ultimately ended in tragedy.
Lu Shiyu was a lofty deity in the entertainment circle, the most aloof white rose in Eden. No one could ever fully possess him. Reality was just this cruel—reconciliation after a breakup and substitute love stories only existed in novels.
After Lu Shiyu and Ming Shu divorced, there was no reconciliation, no substitute love story. The reality was that Lu Shiyu had found the woman he loved, and he and Ming Shu would never be together again.
After reading the trending topics, Ming Shu felt dazed and made an expression like “old man looking at his phone on the subway.”
“What is all this nonsense?”
Li Xiaole, heartbroken and full of regret, said, “Shu Zai, you should have insisted on divorcing him. I should have insisted on persuading you to divorce! If you had initiated the divorce, you wouldn’t be so passive now. They’re actually saying you don’t deserve Lu Shiyu? What a joke! How could a fairy not deserve a mere mortal?!”
Ming Shu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, feeling a sense of relief. “Lele, I’m going to hang up now. Take another close look at that young woman—what clothes is Lu Shiyu’s little lover wearing?”
Li Xiaole: ?!
The woman in Lu Shen’s arms… her clothes seem to be exactly the same as Shu Zai’s…
As soon as Ming Shu touched the bed, she was pulled into the man’s embrace.
Lu Shiyu closed his eyes, kissed her lips, then gave her soft cheek a gentle peck.
Satisfied, he wrapped his arms around her, his voice hoarse and lazy, unable to hide his affection: “Baby, where did you go just now?”
Ming Shu: “To the bathroom.”
Although Lu Shiyu hadn’t actually cheated—it was just a misunderstanding stirred up by netizens and paparazzi on Weibo—she was still very upset. Her legs began to playfully misbehave, trying to press down on Lu Shiyu.
He had a tall, slender build with excellent bone structure and muscles. As her noticeably slender, smooth calf stretched over, Lu Shiyu didn’t even need to look under the blanket to easily trap her two fair, delicate legs.
His arm held her soft waist protectively, while his legs clamped down on hers in a domineering manner. It was a twisted and ambiguous position, but Lu Shiyu loved it.
The feeling of possessing her was wonderful, and it would be even better if they could engage in some intimate communication.
The difference in strength was too great. Not only did Ming Shu fail to bully him, but she was also held in his arms and kissed several times. She completely gave up struggling, resting her head on his shoulder, her rosy lips pouting: “Everyone online is saying you cheated.”
Lu Shiyu: “It’s fake. You know I only care about you.”
Ming Shu: “Then how should we clarify it?”
Lu Shiyu opened his eyes and calmly offered a suggestion: “Let’s take a photo now and post it on Weibo. All the rumors will vanish.”
Ming Shu shook her head nervously, saying, “No! No! There must be another way…”
Lu Shiyu wasn’t a celebrity idol, but he was even more intimidating than one. After three years of marriage without appearing together publicly, fans had already criticized her, saying she wasn’t good enough for Lu Shiyu. If they posted intimate photos, who knew how crazily fans would attack her? Would she even be able to stay in the entertainment industry?
Lu Shiyu didn’t say anything, seemingly accepting whatever she said.
Ming Shu felt a bit guilty. In this cheating scandal misunderstanding, Lu Shiyu was the real victim. Every second they delayed clarifying, he would suffer another second of public pressure.
He got up, his black robe falling open, revealing his sexy, firm abs and shark muscles that couldn’t be hidden. The temptation of his perfect physique made Ming Shu bury her face in the blanket in embarrassment—it was too alluring, she felt like her nose was about to bleed.
“Be good, sleep a little longer. I’ll go make breakfast.”
“Mmm… okay.”
Ming Shu truly had no resistance at all. Lu Shiyu was different from both the wild wolf-dog and the gentle puppy types. He had a gentle, mature charm that made him perfect for home life—a restrained, sexy man in bed and a gentle, caring “dad” figure outside of it.
Well, “dad” might not be the right word, since she and Lu Shiyu didn’t have children yet, but he would definitely be a great dad in the future! There was no doubt about that!
She should have agreed to his suggestion earlier—taking a photo to clarify the rumors.
Ming Shu bit her knuckle, opened Weibo, and took another look at the haters insulting Lu Shiyu, hoping it would help her make a decision.
But unexpectedly, she saw a new trending hot search.
#Zhou Yichen and Su Jin’er’s Home Vlog Is So Sweet# EXPLOSIVE!
In the video, Zhou Yichen pulled his suitcase and hurriedly walked through the door. The virtuous Su Jin’er helped him put on his slippers and prepared a table of delicious dishes for them to share. Zhou Yichen occasionally served her food, saying she had worked hard. After the meal, he rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen to make a glass of juice as a reward for his wife’s hard work in cooking.
After finishing the juice, Zhou Yichen tried to carry Su Jin’er upstairs, but the two ended up tumbling onto the sofa together, laughing and giggling. Finally, Zhou Yichen kissed Su Jin’er’s cheek and said, “Darling, I missed you so much,” before the vlog ended.
[Wuwuwu, Liangchen Meijing is so sweet! They’re definitely the number one sweet couple in the domestic entertainment industry!]

[It’s really so sweet, my face is all red from watching. Who hasn’t fallen for Liangchen Meijing yet? Hurry up and join the fandom!]
[Brother Chen didn’t even manage to lift Jin’er—was he too tired?]
[What do you know? Brother Chen did it on purpose—it’s just a playful couple thing.]
[I heard Sweet Journey invited Liangchen Meijing—I’m really looking forward to it!]
[This couple is genuinely sweet, unlike the Bingtang couple, who haven’t developed any feelings even after three years of marriage.]
[Not to compare, but both couples got married on the same day—why is there such a big gap? One is super sweet, the other has no chemistry.]
[Jin’er is so virtuous, and Chenchen dotes on Jin’er. In the domestic entertainment industry, a sweet cp like Liangchen Meijing is one of a kind—no one else can compare.]
Ming Shu: Are all these comments for real?
