Chapter 68 Given that Fang Han made Gao Wen fat in less than half a month…

Given that Fang Han made Gao Wen gain three pounds in less than half a month, she decided not to eat his cooking for at least a month.

Even the weight-loss meals he prepared were met with skepticism from Gao Wen.

For Gao Wen, three whole kilograms was a terrifying number.

She now exercises at least an extra hour after get off work and has even opened two more Victoria's Secret slimming classes to lose weight with her students.

The precious little time we had for our date was also ruined.

Fang Han deeply reflected on this matter, bought many nutrition cookbooks, and prepared to improve his culinary skills.

When Hu Hong heard from Zhang Ni that Fang Han might be in a relationship, she wasn't too surprised. She snorted and said, "I've noticed he's different lately too!"

"You noticed all of that? It's really true?" Zhang Ni exclaimed in surprise.

“That’s right,” Hu Hong said. “I’ve been calling him lately, and every time I do, he’s all smiles, his eyes are practically disappearing. He seems to be in a really good mood, and he’s totally smitten!”

“Yes, yes, he does that at the company too.” Zhang Ni nodded frantically.

As the two were whispering to each other, Gao Wen came out of the large classroom after class. She quickly greeted Zhang Ni and the others before heading to the small classroom upstairs.

Hu Hong looked at Gao Wen's slender back and said, "Forget it, why bother with that brat? Luckily, Wenwen didn't like him. Wenwen is so hardworking and ambitious, unlike him, who loses his soul as soon as he falls in love."

"How can someone who's obsessed with romance accomplish great things?"

"Auntie, does Mr. Fang know about what you're saying?" Zhang Ni asked, trying to suppress a laugh.

“That’s true. Besides, didn’t he say he liked Wenwen? He’s fallen for someone else so quickly. I can’t say he’s my son anymore!” Hu Hong nodded after saying that, reminding herself, “Yes, I absolutely can’t say that in front of Wenwen!”

......

After Fang Han and Gao Wen started dating, no one mentioned each other in front of them.

Everyone assumed that Fang Han had a new love interest. As for who it was, no one gossiped. In any case, it certainly wasn't as good as Gao Wen. It could only be said that Fang Han's standards had dropped.

Fang Han was unaware that people were whispering about him behind his back; unless they said it out loud, he wouldn't notice.

Because he's been in a great mood every day lately, and all he does is work and Gao Wen.

Fang Han felt 100% happy whenever he thought of her; he loved the world more, and even the air felt sweeter.

Fang Han would also go to the gym during Gao Wen's self-training time after get off work. Since she paid so much attention to her figure, he naturally had to be strict with himself as well.

After Fang Han finishes his workout, he will go to the yoga studio to wait for Gao Wen.

By then, the museum was empty.

Fang Han sat silently in the rest area, looking at one of the closed classrooms. Light shone through the crack in the door. While waiting for her, he couldn't help but smile.

Half an hour later, Gao Wen opened the door and came out.

She saw Fang Han outside and smiled, "When did you arrive? Why didn't you call me?"

"I haven't been here long." Fang Han stood up, picked up the thermos cup next to him, unscrewed it, and handed it to her.

"What kind of water?" Gao Wen asked warily. "Is it sweet?"

“It’s not sweet,” Fang Han laughed. “This white fungus, lotus seed, and ophiopogon japonicus soup will keep your skin moisturized.”

"Really?" Gao Wen asked hesitantly, but she seemed to believe him.

"Mmm." Fang Han looked at her rosy, slightly damp cheeks, raised his hand to gently wipe the fine sweat from her forehead, and fed it to her lips. "You should change your clothes quickly, be careful not to catch a cold." "Mmm." Gao Wen drank a few sips, and sure enough, it had no taste and didn't seem very good.

But Fang Han said it would moisturize her skin, so she resisted and drank a couple more sips.

After Gao Wen changed her clothes and came out, Fang Han helped her put on the hood of her down jacket and pulled the jacket up a little before he felt comfortable taking her hand and leading her out.

When the two walked to the roadside, they saw a familiar Mercedes.

Lin Heng stood by the car. After getting off work, he had unknowingly driven here, hoping to run into Gao Wen.

He hadn't expected to run into Gao Wen and Fang Han, and when he saw the two of them appear hand in hand, he was stunned.

When Lin Heng confessed his feelings to Gao Wen, he didn't really expect her to reject him. After all, Gao Wen had been so brave and risked her life to save him, so she must have some feelings for him.

He was indeed a bit abrupt, but Gao Wen running to Fang Han's side and the two embracing each other was something he hadn't expected.

Nevertheless, Lin Heng still didn't believe the two were together. He thought that Fang Han had already won Gao Wen over long ago, and that it was probably a tactic Gao Wen used to reject him.

Now, Lin Heng had no choice but to believe it.

The two of them were so lovey-dovey, it was as if there were pink bubbles rising around them.

When Fang Han saw Lin Heng, he held Gao Wen's hand even tighter and pulled her to his side. When his eyes met Lin Heng's, the peace he had shown when they met at Gu Shujie's house was gone, replaced by possessiveness in his eyes.

Fang Han even stopped and led Gao Wen in another direction without ever running into Lin Heng.

Lin Heng's face darkened.

Unfortunately, he doesn't even have the qualifications to compete with Fang Han now. Gao Wen has already made her choice. Did she save him simply to save a life? Was there no other intention behind it?

Lin Heng had just gotten into the car when his phone rang.

Lin's mother said anxiously, "Go and check on Shu Yan. She hasn't eaten for two days. If this continues, her body won't be able to take it."

Lin Heng's temples were throbbing with pain, but he suppressed his anger and said, "I understand."

Jiang Shuyan now stages a suicide attempt every few days, and everyone has to comfort her, fearing that she might actually commit suicide and no one can take responsibility.

"Oh dear, what kind of situation is this?" Lin's mother shook her head.

On the other end.

Gao Wen turned to the side and stared at Fang Han. Seeing his stern face, she smiled and said, "Why do you look so serious?"

"Really?" Fang Han replied.

“Yes.” Gao Wen raised her index finger and poked Fang Han’s brow. “Your brows are all furrowed. Relax them quickly.”

Fang Han's brows relaxed slightly, then unconsciously furrowed again.

Gao Wen laughed: "What are you doing?"

Fang Han didn't say anything, but took her hand and put it into his pocket.

"Are you jealous?" Gao Wen approached Fang Han and said with a smile.

She had thought Fang Han would deny it and pretend to be indifferent, trying to find an excuse for himself. To her surprise, he simply replied, "Mm."

Gao Wen was surprised.

Fang Han looked at her: "Too many people like you, I'll manage it myself."

This Lin Heng is just someone who makes him feel more threatened.

“You don’t need to adjust, I’m very loyal.” Gao Wen took Fang Han’s arm with her other hand and said in a clear and soft voice, “The person I chose is a decision I made after careful consideration. We’re going to go very, very far together.”

Fang Han stopped and faced Gao Wen. He looked down at her with tenderness in his eyes and smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. He was no longer in a bad mood as he had just been; he had clearly been coaxed into submission.

"Fang Han, you are the best person to me in this world," Gao Wen said earnestly.

When Gao Wen said this, Fang Han even felt that he wasn't good enough to her. He wanted to be very, very good to her, to do everything he could to improve her and help her live the life she wanted.

*

That night.

Gao Wen goes to bed relatively early.

After Fang Han took her home, she took a shower and did a ten-minute live stream while doing her skincare routine. Her eyelids started to droop, so she ended the stream early and went to sleep.

Gao Wen, fast asleep, had no idea that she was trending on social media again.

A blogger suddenly dug up a picture of Gao Wen saving Lin Heng at the scene of a car accident before the Lunar New Year, along with a photo of Lin Heng holding flowers and Gao Wen standing in front of him.

The internet exploded with discussion:

"Holy crap, are these two really together?"

"Hahaha, she rescued her boyfriend from a car accident scene?"

"Some netizens said at the time that the guy was not bad-looking and that they might get together, but I didn't expect they would actually get together."

"It's a marriage ordained by heaven, it's simply an arrangement of the gods."

......

Many netizens left messages and went to Gao Wen's video to offer their blessings, repeatedly emphasizing that it was a match made in heaven, and even calling on Lin Heng to cherish Gao Wen, saying that his life was given to him by her.

No one expected there to be a follow-up to this story, and they were all enjoying the gossip. They were happy to see the two "get together".

Fang Han naturally saw it too, and his face darkened; he couldn't stand it.

But Gao Wen was already asleep, and he couldn't make any decisions without consulting her, because she was now a public figure and it would affect her.

Not only Fang Han was annoyed by these comments, but Zhang Ni was also indignant and kept reporting and explaining them.

Hu Hong, still awake in the middle of the night, grabbed Wenwen's phone and angrily wrote comments: "[Wenwen is single, not in a relationship.]", "[She's not dating]", "[She's a good girl, always working hard, I go to her class every day]", "[She doesn't have time for dating]"...

Despite her advanced age, Hu Hong is still engaging in online debates with young people to explain things.

Fang Hongming was extremely sleepy and said to her, "Go to sleep."

“No, we can’t let them wrong Wenwen. I can’t sleep when I think about it. She’s such a good girl. She’s not even dating. This will affect her online reputation!” Hu Hong paid special attention to this because of Gao Wen. “Those celebrities have seen their popularity decline because they date.”

As soon as Hu Hong finished speaking, people kept commenting on her, insisting that Gao Wen was in a relationship, and saying that Lin Heng drove a Mercedes-Benz, so his family must be well-off, and that he might be trying to marry into a wealthy family.

She was furious and typed, word by word: "Do you have any evidence? You're wrongly accusing an innocent child. I know her best."

Just as Hu Hong was preparing to fight these netizens until dawn, an anonymous netizen posted a picture that left Hu Hong dumbfounded, and all her anger seemed to be doused with a bucket of cold water.

There wasn't even a spark left.

"What's wrong?" Fang Hongming noticed that she was in a bad mood and sat up.

“He, he, he, Fang Han, he—” Hu Hong pointed at her phone, staring wide-eyed at Fang Hongming.

"Fang Han?" Fang Hongming took the phone and saw that Fang Han was holding Gao Wen's hand in the photo. The two were probably shopping at the supermarket and looked very sweet.

Fang Hongming was also shocked by this, "When did those two start talking?"

This photo was like a bomb, sending an already trending topic soaring like a rocket.

Lin Heng is holding roses and confessing his feelings to Gao Wen.

Gao Wen seems to have a boyfriend.

Does this mean that Gao Wen abandoned her original boyfriend and agreed to be with Lin Heng because she saw that Lin Heng was very rich?

What was originally an admirable act of rescue has, under the malicious speculation of some netizens, actually stirred up controversy:

[Is Gao Wen not a local? That person drives a Mercedes with local license plates; they must be rich. Maybe they only went all in because of the Mercedes, and after succeeding, they'll definitely dump their original boyfriend.]

[The two went grocery shopping together; they must be living together. This is called cutting off the one you're after! This woman is so ruthless!]

Suddenly, I have a very bad impression of her. Seeing how well she was with her boyfriend, she turned around and threw herself into someone else's arms.

[I feel like this rescue operation has gone awry. I originally wanted them to be together, but now I think she doesn't deserve either of them. I hope her boyfriend will wake up and see her true colors.]

......

Although some people remained neutral and others spoke up for Gao Wen, there were also many malicious voices.

At this moment, a long post suddenly appeared, claiming to be from an insider: "[Lin Heng has a fiancée, but because of Gao Wen's interference, their engagement was broken off. She is the biggest victim in this whole affair! She has attempted suicide several times recently, and as her friend, I simply can't bear to see her like this!]"

Because of this information, netizens concluded that Gao Wen saved Lin Heng, and seeing that Lin Heng was wealthy, she abandoned her boyfriend to steal him away, causing Lin Heng to break off his engagement with his fiancée. Gao Wen is a homewrecker!

Late at night, and separated by the internet, everyone freely releases their anger online, without having to pay any price.

Many people genuinely believe that Gao Wen is a mistress, and some even say that Gao Wen's persona is entirely a marketing ploy, wishing they could negate everything about her with just one sentence and nail her to the pillar of shame.

Hu Hong couldn't sit still any longer, so she immediately called Fang Han.

Fang Han didn't sleep either.

He is climbing the internet cable.

Hu Hong questioned, "Are you and Wenwen dating?"

"Yes." Fang Han did not deny it.

"Fang Han, Fang Han, what kind of boyfriend are you? You've failed so much! Didn't you intend to let Wenwen be exposed to the public eye?" Hu Hong scolded, her voice choked with emotion. "Look at what you've done! What are people saying about her now! It's outrageous, these people have gone too far!"

Fang Han did not deny Hu Hong's accusations at all.

It is indeed his responsibility to let Gao Wen be insulted like this; he should protect her.

Gao Wen has been incredibly popular for the past six months. Her account launch was smooth, her courses sold like hotcakes, and she earned a lot of money, which attracted a lot of jealousy, including from her peers. Seeing that she had fallen from grace, many people wanted to kick her while she was down.

When Gao Wen woke up, Fang Han had reported many accounts and also investigated some of them through the internet.

He wasn't sure what she wanted to do, or whether she wanted to expose their relationship, so he didn't dare to act rashly.

Gao Wen listened to Fang Han speaking on the other end of the line. He emphasized, "I found that several accounts were sent by the same person, saying that you ruined Jiang Shuyan and Lin Heng's engagement. That IP address is in the house under Jiang Chuanwen's name."

“That must be Jiang Shuyan herself.” Gao Wen smiled instead of getting angry.

The plot has gone off track again, which Gao Wen thinks is a good thing.

"Jiang Shuyan posted it herself?" Fang Han still couldn't understand. "What business is it of yours if they're not engaged?"

"I don't know, and I don't care," Gao Wen asked him. "Didn't you sleep last night?"

"I slept for a little while," Fang Han lied.

"Your dark circles are so heavy, I bet you stayed up all night, right? Go to sleep, I'll take care of it," Gao Wen said.

Fang Han asked with concern, "Is there anything I can do?"

"Do you mind being in the public eye because of me?" Gao Wen asked.

Fang Han replied without hesitation, "I don't mind."

“I understand,” Gao Wen said softly. “Go to sleep, it’s easy to solve.”

She spoke casually, but after hanging up the phone, Fang Han couldn't help but worry as the topic of her phone continued to gain traction.

He couldn't sleep, so he got dressed and went to her house to find her.

When Fang Han knocked on the door, Gao Wen had just finished washing up and even made herself a cup of rice porridge.

Hu Hong knew what had happened to her, and thoughtfully canceled her morning classes, probably wanting her to sleep in a little longer.

"Why are you here?" Gao Wen asked with a smile, looking at Fang Han, who was breathing heavily.

"I brought you breakfast." Fang Han bought some steamed buns and a cup of freshly ground, unsweetened black sesame soy milk on the way.

Gao Wen laughed: "I've already made the rice cereal."

"I'll eat it," Fang Han said.

The two sat down at the dining table. Fang Han took Gao Wen's bowl of rice porridge and gave her steamed buns and black sesame soy milk.

“This rice cereal has no taste,” Gao Wen said.

"It's alright." Fang Han had no appetite at all right now, and he carefully observed Gao Wen's expression.

How could Gao Wen not notice his movements? She picked up a small steamed bun, smiled, and fed it to Fang Han's mouth: "Have one."

"You eat."

"How could I possibly eat so much?" Gao Wen said, and he finally opened his mouth, looking somewhat awkward.

Gao Wen picked one up for herself and said slowly, "It's okay, I've already taken care of it."

"How do we solve this?" Fang Han pressed.

With so many netizens questioning her and some even accusing her of malicious speculation, how did she manage to resolve all of this in such a short time?

Gao Wen didn't say anything, silently enjoying her breakfast, and commented, "These xiaolongbao are really good, delicious."

Fang Han took out his phone and saw Gao Wen on the trending short video search again.

The title was also very eye-catching: Gao Wen's boyfriend

Fang Han clicked to see, and found that Gao Wen had posted a video and pinned it to the top of her chat list.

He instinctively turned the volume down.

The video first shows two hands clasped together, followed by Fang Han's own face. Then the scene shifts to Gao Wen's face, who is leaning against him, smiling brightly and charmingly, with a touch of girlish coquettishness on her face.

Video caption: My only boyfriend from beginning to end.

In the comments section, in response to netizens' suggestions about living together, Gao Wen posted several pictures of Fang Han busy in the kitchen. She commented: "We don't live together, but my boyfriend comes over to cook for me; he's quite gentle and considerate."

Fang Han has a handsome appearance and a gentle and refined temperament. When such a man is focused on cooking in the kitchen, his charm is off the charts.

Netizens are incredibly resourceful; they can dig up Fang Han's information in no time: Fang Han, a master's graduate from University A, a top student, and had a considerable annual salary when he graduated.

The value of this statement is self-evident.

However, they thought again that Gao Wen was also from University A and a big internet celebrity, so the two of them were a good match.

Gao Wen found the comments from the so-called "insider" and, without any hesitation, commented directly: "[I hope you keep this comment. It would be best if Lin Heng could come and explain to you in person. Please tell your "friend": I have absolutely no interest in their affairs. I didn't know it was him before saving him, and I didn't know it would get me into trouble.]"

Gao Wen directly announced her boyfriend and replied to comments with great confidence, which emboldened her fans, who then fiercely attacked the haters: "[Saving someone only caused trouble; it would have been better not to save them at all.]"

The word "friend" in the comment was in quotation marks. When Jiang Shuyan saw it, she was startled and felt that Gao Wen was implying something. She felt guilty and, after hesitating for a while, she quickly began to delete the comment.

Although the comment was deleted, sharp-eyed netizens had already taken screenshots, which has now generated even more discussion.

The momentum of haters and some keyboard warriors is waning, with only a few stubborn individuals still spouting nonsense.

Jiang Shuyan didn't sleep a wink last night, spending all her time guiding comments. She posted far too many, and before she could even delete them all, she saw Lin Heng commenting on Gao Wen's video using his own account: "[Sorry, it was a one-sided pursuit by me, and Gao Wen explicitly rejected me. My engagement with Jiang Shuyan was canceled long ago; it was purely unintentional and has nothing to do with this matter.]"

Now, the haters are completely shut up.

Lin Heng's actions directly exposed Jiang Shuyan, who was at least a minor internet celebrity with over 200,000 followers.

Her account was quickly discovered by netizens.

Compared to Gao Wen's daily videos of self-disciplined exercise, Jiang Shuyan's videos are less informative. Two of her three pinned videos feature a small courtyard house, and she particularly enjoys being called "Miss." Her previous videos were more or less about flaunting her wealth, which is also the fastest way to gain followers.

My recent videos have all been recommending cosmetics.

Many netizens immediately commented:

[This blogger has terrible character. They always recommend skincare or makeup products from small, unknown workshops. There's no way to complain, so I just buy them and throw them in the trash. They're the only blogger I've ever blocked.]

[Speechless. It was her. I really don't like her.]

When can I get a refund?!

The products she promotes are terrible quality, but the commissions are incredibly high. She's shameless when it comes to making money. I really wonder if her family is that rich?

......

When there were few comments, Jiang Shuyan could suppress them by deleting and controlling them. But now, a large number of netizens are flooding in. As soon as they hear that she sells substandard products and that some netizens have ruined their skin, you can imagine how fierce their reaction is.

Some even commented: "I think there must be a reason why Lin Heng broke off the engagement with her. What does it have to do with Gao Wen? I feel like she's manipulating the comments."

It was because of this sentence that Jiang Shuyan was actually exposed.

It was extremely embarrassing; she really did use several accounts, commenting back and forth and trying to guide netizens on her own.

It turned into a huge joke.

Gao Wen didn't care about what happened afterward.

She needs to deal with something else now.

After Zhang Ni and Hu Hong found out that Gao Wen and Fang Han were dating, the moment Gao Wen entered the store, their gazes were incredibly meaningful.

"Fang Gong is quite something! I was wondering why he'd been so lovesick lately, turns out he's won the heart of his sweetheart." Zhang Ni covered her mouth and laughed. "Not bad, not bad, he's finally figured it out."

When Hu Hong saw Gao Wen, her eyes lit up. She took Gao Wen's hand and smiled broadly, "Is Fang Han good to you? If he isn't, tell me, and I'll definitely not let him get away with it!"

"Let me tell you, he's not an easy person to get along with. He's always so indifferent to everything he does, and I don't know if he's even considerate of people."

“He’s fine,” Gao Wen said.

"Did he give you money to spend?" Hu Hong asked again.

Gao Wen: "Huh?"

Why give her money? She has enough.

Hu Hong's face darkened as she looked at him: "He's so rich, why doesn't he give you money to spend? Did he not tell you he's rich?"

“We’re not talking about this,” Gao Wen explained.

"Miser! Stingy!" Hu Hong snorted heavily. "The four elders left him so much money and a house so he could get married, and he's hiding it all away?"

After she finished speaking, she raised her voice incredulously, "He collects two or three million in rent every year, does he really not give you any money to spend?"
