"Actually, it's fine to be on the headlines, it's common for celebrities to have scandals once in a while," Qiao Anhao rea.s.sured, attempting to make it sound like nothing .  

She then repeated the conversation she had seen of Lin s.h.i.+yi on weibo .  

After listening to her description, Lu Jinnian's originally darkened face fell more, turning almost menacing .  

Even though Qiao Anhao knew that he wasn't angry at her, she still didn't have the courage to face him, muttering softly, "Because her words were too hurtful . . . and she had even posted it on her weibo . . . "

Even though she was describing the incident, she couldn't hold back the bitterness she felt .  "Basically, she was insulting me and I didn't feel good about it .

"While we were eating, Zhao Meng realized that there were paparazzi, so she suddenly had an inspiration . . .  She wanted them to take photos of us shopping together . . . "

Even though she didn't finish her sentence, Lu Jinnian understood .  

Back when they were in the shop, Zhao Meng had continuously harped on about which bags to buy while she had remained silent the whole time . . .  The two of them must have discussed it before? 

Qiao Anhao kept on rambling on, trying to clarify the situation before finally lifting her head to look at him . In a soft, apologetic tone, she said, "Lu Jinnian, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made you shop with me .

"As soon as new entertainment news comes out, the scandal will go down . No one will care for it anymore, and as for Lin s.h.i.+yi, I'll just ignore her . I wasn't in the right mind just now when I wanted to spite her . Besides, I won't be able to finish using all those bags, and there are even some that I don't really like anyways . We shouldn't waste money like that .  

"You haven't even rested after such a long flight back from America . You must be tired, let's go home now, can we?" 

Qiao Anhao lifted one eye to sneak a peek, but before she could see Lu Jinnian, his head had already lowered . Slowly, tenderness covered her lips .  

After being on the road for such a long time, he was indeed exhausted, but once he took in her all her words, his fatigue seemed to have been chased away .  

Ever since he returned, he had wanted to kiss her just like this . But when he came back and saw her, his a.s.sistant and Zhao Meng were still around, so he could only hold it in .  

He had been holding it in till now, and even though they were still outside and he knew that there were paparazzi around, he didn't mind . . . They were already entangled in a scandal, so he didn't mind taking it up a notch, besides . . . She was the woman he loved, the woman he had been using his entire life to cherish and care for . How then could he let others insult her so easily?

Qiao Anhao legs turned to jelly, and she suddenly remembered the paparazzi . Her eyes went wide as she saw someone sneakily taking photos of them . Hurriedly, she tried to dodge Lu Jinnian's lips, breathlessly, she said, "Someone is taking photos . . . "

Before she could finish her sentence, Lu Jinnian muttered hoa.r.s.ely, "Let them . "

Once more, the tenderness descended onto her lips .
