After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him

Chapter 48: Chapter 48: A Very Authoritative VIP

Zhao Xi received this message, and his whole person wasn’t quite well.

He had followed Song Sinian for so many years but had never seen him take the initiative to publicly reveal his identity.

Even when attending events, he just briskly went through the motions.

It could be said that many people in the business world were familiar with Song Sinian’s face, but almost none had really conversed with him.

The Song Family’s financial strength and resources were sufficient for him to ignore all partners.

The outside world had always been full of gossip and scandal about Song Sinian; he had never bothered about it. As for the little trouble Lu Zhaozhao was experiencing at school, he probably wouldn’t go in person, would he?

Zhao Xi glanced at the message and then at Song Sinian. After hesitating for a long time, he still didn’t dare to speak up.@@novelbin@@

While he was pondering how to reply to Qian Hong, Song Sinian spoke up first, “What happened?”

Since Zhao Xi’s phone had sounded off, Song Sinian seemed as if he were sitting on a chair full of thorns, restless for quite some time.

Zhao Xi had been working under him for a long time; there weren’t many things that could make him this uneasy.

Either it was an extremely thorny issue or it had to do with Lu Zhaozhao.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Xi slowly opened his mouth, “There’s a rumor at school targeting your wife. Someone slandered that your wife married an old and ugly man for money, branding her a false heiress and a true gold-digger.”

Song Sinian’s eyes blinked faintly, his gaze calm and unperturbed, “Leave this matter to the PR department.”

“Uh… this is a school matter; the PR department might not be… quite suitable to handle this,” Zhao Xi briefly explained the situation to Song Sinian, then looked at him nervously again.

Song Sinian gave a faint “Hmm,” and then there was no more movement.

“…”

At this point, Zhao Xi was completely helpless; indeed, their Mr. Song didn’t take rumors and gossip to heart at all.

It seemed even less likely that he would go to the school.

Sighing with resignation, Zhao Xi picked up his phone and typed out a line, “I’ve done my best, but it seems Mr. Song isn’t really on board…”

Just as he was about to press the send button, a faint voice rang out in the office.

“Would she be upset about this?”

Zhao Xi firmly pressed and held the delete key, then raised his head to assure Song Sinian word by word, “Yes! Your wife might be bullied and isolated at school. She’s naturally quite well-behaved, what to do in the future…”

He deliberately exaggerated a tiny bit to make Song Sinian realize that rumors could turn into tangible harm to Lu Zhaozhao.

In fact, even if Lu Zhaozhao wasn’t a true heiress of the Lu Family, it wouldn’t matter.

After all, she was the Song Family’s wife, and if anyone dared to bully her at school, the Song Family’s bodyguards would knock their heads off in no time.

As for being ostracized, anyone who was aware of the Song Family’s status would not dare to.

Song Sinian’s expression obviously changed as he raised his eyes to look at Zhao Xi, “What classes does Zhaozhao have this morning?”

“!!!”

Zhao Xi was so excited he almost dropped his phone. He quickly took out Lu Zhaozhao’s schedule and placed it on the table, “Here is your wife’s entire schedule for today. She happens to have an art seminar at school this morning, and there is a long break at noon.”

He actively hinted on the side, almost suggesting that Song Sinian show up at the school at noon to flaunt and whiten his wife’s reputation.

Song Sinian’s fingertips gently tapped on the schedule, his dark eyes slowly narrowing.

An art lecture?

Indeed, it’s a good idea.

Because of the school’s rumors and gossip, Lu Zhaozhao caused quite a stir whenever she arrived at school.

However, due to her current identity, others did not dare to do anything to her.

She carried her bag and went straight to the back row of the lecture hall.

There weren’t many people here, which spared her from listening to idle chitchat, and besides, it was an art lecture that wasn’t of much use.

Moreover, she had already attended it in her previous life, so there were no surprises.

“Oh my god, Zhaozhao, you actually came to class? I thought you were so heartbroken by the rumors that you’d stayed at home and wouldn’t come out…”

An irritating voice rose not far away. Without guessing, Lu Zhaozhao knew who was speaking.

She spread rumors just to mock her, and now that the entire art department was attending the lecture, how could Xia Wenjin miss this opportunity to taunt her?

Lu Zhaozhao chuckled lightly, her eyebrows and eyes slightly moving, she said indifferently, “You just said they’re rumors, why should I care?”

Xia Wenjin’s face “swooshed” and turned sour, but since so many people were around, she immediately pretended to be pitiful and looked at Lu Zhaozhao.

“Zhaozhao, I know it made you unhappy that mom and dad acknowledged me, but after all, I am the true daughter of the Lu Family. I hope you won’t be mad at them, okay?”

Sure enough, after Xia Wenjin finished her sentence, the people around started to discuss in a buzz.

“Xia Wenjin is the Lu Family’s heiress, so is Lu Zhaozhao really a fake heiress? Then is what’s posted on the forum actually true?”

“What a shame, a fine head of cabbage has been dug up by a hog, tsk tsk…”

“I can’t believe the new goddess is actually a gold-digger, and she’s even married to an old man.”

…

The rising and falling discussions pleased Xia Wenjin immensely, for she had always disliked Lu Zhaozhao’s haughty demeanor.

Now that the school knew she was a fake heiress, and that she’d married an ugly and perverse old man, Xia Wenjin was eager to see how Lu Zhaozhao could still be so arrogant.

Lu Zhaozhao’s eyebrows lifted slightly, and with a cool glance, she said, “My husband is the president of the Song Group, even if I’m not the daughter of the Lu Family, that won’t change. What’s there to be unhappy about?”

If the Lu Family were to cut ties with her now, she would be more than happy.

But the Lu Family saw her as too useful to let go, and it was probably because Xia Wenjin didn’t know this that she was so impatient, right?

She propped her chin, looking leisurely at Xia Wenjin, and said coolly, “On the other hand, you haven’t even been formally recognized by the Lu Family, yet you start proclaiming everywhere that you’re the Lu Family heiress. Isn’t that a bit too hasty? Don’t worry, I’m not interested in your things.”

“You!” Xia Wenjin hadn’t expected Lu Zhaozhao to be unashamed and even to mock her in return.

Her face could not maintain its composure, and just as she was about to confront Lu Zhaozhao, the bell outside the classroom suddenly rang.

The host stood at the podium of the lecture hall and reminded, “Everyone, please quiet down. Today’s art lecture features a highly authoritative figure. Everyone should cherish this opportunity!”

Suddenly, everyone’s attention was drawn to the words “highly authoritative figure.”

Yuqing University was already the top university in the Beijing Circle, filled with talent, and the teachers were leading figures in their fields.

To be described by the host as “a highly authoritative figure” must be something extraordinary!

So one by one, they all looked with anticipation towards the entrance of the lecture hall—
