In her previous life, she was the iron-blooded matriarch of the Huo family, dominating Hong Kong Island. Yet, her own children conspired to drug her, leading to a hate-filled death. All because she...
Chapter 226 Schadenfreude
Seeing Fang Lanxin's drastically different demeanor, Guan Yu even felt honored to have witnessed such an unguarded side of her.
Fang Lanxin was exhausted, so she reached out her hand to Guan Yu and said, "Can you carry me back?"
"good."
Guan Yu smiled gently, stepped forward, and embraced the person in his arms before walking outside.
Sure enough, the media were like leeches sticking to the door, taking pictures as soon as the two came out. This time, no one asked about their relationship, since anyone who wasn't blind could see what kind of relationship they had!
Fang Lanxin suddenly laughed, then buried her head in Guan Yu's arms, hugging his neck, feeling incredibly safe.
After getting into the car, Guan Yu waved to the media with great pride, as if afraid they wouldn't be able to capture the iconic scene.
The next morning, all the major newspapers went crazy!
The photos of the two people almost took up the entire page, and even a few words about the bidding meeting were hard to find.
Looking at the photo in the newspaper, Fang Lanxin smiled and tilted her head to look at Guan Yu, who was still in bed beside her, and said softly, "The photo is just so-so. I still think he's more handsome in person!"
"Getting up so early to read the newspaper?" Guan Erye stood up, took the newspaper from Fang Lanxin's hand, and looked at her with some curiosity.
Fang Lanxin nodded: "Yes, I got up early to read the newspapers. The writing style of these media outlets is quite good. Look, we've already been portrayed as a pair of star-crossed lovers who betrayed their families, haha!"
Fang Lanxin couldn't help but feel smug at the thought of the Guan family's reaction after seeing the newspaper.
this……
Guan Yu looked at Fang Lanxin with a helpless expression and said, "Are you doing this on purpose?"
"Are you unhappy?" Fang Lanxin raised an eyebrow, looking at Guan Yu with a half-smile, a hint of arrogance and smugness hidden in her eyes.
That's just the kind of person she is. If she sets her sights on something, she'll definitely take it for herself, whether it's a person or anything else!
"Guan Jingshen, get out here right now!"
Just as the two were gazing tenderly at each other, Guan Da's roar came from downstairs.
Fang Lanxin laughed even louder and kicked the person down.
"Hurry up, your older brother is calling you!"
Guan Yu rubbed the spot where she had kicked him, both amused and exasperated, and headed downstairs.
Even before going downstairs, he could already feel Guan Da's rage. Even though Guan Yu was not young anymore, he still felt a certain fear of being suppressed by blood when facing his own brother, especially now that he was facing Guan Da in a fit of rage.
"Big brother, so early?"
"Get over here right now! Are you crazy? If you want to be with Fang Lanxin, just be with her! What are you doing making such a huge fuss? You're insane!"
With gritted teeth, Guan Daqi threw the newspaper in his hand at Guan Er.
Newspapers fell like snowflakes, filled with intimate photos of the two. In this relatively conservative era, such photos were practically a scandal.
But the two people in the photo are such a perfect match, they look like a work of art.
"Brother, calm down."
"It's only a matter of time!"
Guan Er bent down and carefully picked up all the newspapers, thinking that he should keep the photos or go to the media outlets to get the negatives back. These were memories, all of them beautiful memories, and he definitely wanted to preserve them.
Guan Da was already furious, and now seeing his younger brother's pathetic state only made him angrier!
His eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he said irritably, "Are you deliberately trying to annoy me? Look at yourself, so pathetic! Tell me, what are we going to do now?"
"What do you mean, 'what should I do'? I'm in a relationship, what's wrong with that?"
"Besides, my boyfriend isn't a bad person at all. I bet the whole of Hong Kong is envious of me right now, isn't he?"
“Brother, you have no idea how many people in Hong Kong have their eyes on Alan. Now that he’s mine, they must be itching to get rid of him.”
Guan Er felt a surge of joy whenever he thought about how his relationship with Fang Lanxin was now officially recognized.
Guan Da originally thought Guan Er would understand the seriousness of the matter, but he never expected that Guan Er would still be so pleased with himself.
"The Guan and Huo families have been estranged for so many years, and what you're doing is blatantly disrespecting your elders!"
"Even if your father can forgive you, what about the others? There's more than just one elder in the family, isn't there?"
"You...you..."
Guan Da was so angry that his mouth was dry, and he plopped down on the sofa. In the instant he looked up, he inadvertently saw Fang Lanxin standing on the second floor.
At this moment, Fang Lanxin, dressed in loose pajamas, casually leaned against the second-floor railing, watching the two of them argue with great interest.
Guan Da had originally prepared a lot to say, but now, facing Shang Lanxin, he couldn't utter a single word.
His eyes widened in disbelief, as if he had never expected to see Fang Lanxin here.
After a long while, Guan Da finally reacted and glared at Guan Er through gritted teeth: "You...you?"
“Brother, we’re both over forty. You don’t think we’re together just to see each other, do you?” Guan Er never thought that two people living together and having physical intimacy was something outrageous.
They are no longer young people in their twenties. At their age, they know very well what they want and what they are doing.
"you!"
"You're so self-righteous, Fang Lanxin!"
Guan Da gritted his teeth and glared at Fang Lanxin.
However, Fang Lanxin simply shrugged indifferently: "I won't get involved in your brothers' dispute."
"Our brothers' dispute, who is it because of?" Guan laughed angrily.
He had long known that Fang Lanxin was difficult to deal with, but he never expected her to be so unreasonable.
"Of course it's because you're so old and you still want to meddle in your younger brother's business that you two started arguing."
"Second Master, I'm waiting for you in the bedroom."
Fang Lanxin crossed her arms, snorted, and turned to go into the bedroom.
What?
Guan Da even wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.
He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and looked at Guan Yu: "Are you deaf?"
“Brother, I think Alan has a point. I’m over forty years old. Can’t I decide who I’m with?”
