The reporters who had just arrived squeezed into the crowd, raised their microphones, and tried to shove them into Lu Wanzheng's face.
Upon seeing this, Xu Jingxing immediately shielded Lu Wanzheng behind him, while he himself stood in front of the reporters.
Lu Wanzheng felt dizzy as she bumped into a hard back. Suddenly, she smelled a familiar, indifferent scent, different from Xiao Qifeng's. This scent also carried a faint tobacco aroma.
With someone backing her up, Lu Wanzheng naturally wouldn't step forward; she hid behind Xu Jingxing.
Xu Jingxing remained calm and composed as he looked at the reporter holding the microphone. "What are you doing?"
As soon as the man spoke, the reporter immediately asked, "Sir, are you Lu Wanzheng's boyfriend, her sugar daddy, or both?"
The reporter had just arrived. She had been notified by Wang Xiyou's agent and rushed over immediately, but unfortunately, she was a little too late and hadn't heard the conversation between the two earlier.
The photographer behind the reporter turned on his equipment and pointed the lens at Xu Jingxing.
This device is very high-end; it cost a lot of money to buy, and the video it shoots is very clear. Now that we're close, we can clearly see his smooth skin without a single pore.
With this video out, most of the attention is probably focused on this face.
Upon hearing this question, Xu Jingxing recalled how he had just stood aside and seen the girl behind him being stopped by so many people carrying cameras and microphones, asking her all sorts of random questions. An inexplicable anger welled up inside him. This was the girl he had protected since childhood, and he had almost been late.
Xu Jingxing turned his head and met Lu Wanzheng's clear eyes. He raised his hand and gently rubbed the stray hairs on her forehead, his eyes filled with doting affection.
He didn't look at the reporter who was asking the questions. "I wonder if, in this young lady's eyes, the relationship between a man and a woman can only be one of sugar daddy and sugar daddy."
The implication is that this female reporter has impure motives and is only thinking about her sugar daddy.
Or maybe they just can't stand seeing other girls doing well.
I guess after being a corporate slave for so long, they start to think that girls who live better lives must have powerful connections.
The man's nonchalant demeanor and even his somewhat lazy manner of speaking carried a chilling undertone.
The reporter was surprised that the man would say such a thing.
Upon hearing this, Lu Wanzheng gave the reporters a bright smile. "I've already told you, don't always think about male-female relationships in such a complicated way. Although we don't look alike, he is my uncle, a real uncle."
"Since that's the case, Mr. Lu, may I ask if you know that Lu Wanzheng, backed by a powerful investor, obtained the advertising for Wang Xiyou's Time Shop?"
She was still the same reporter who arrived late; she was still unwilling to give up.
She was already late and worried that other reporters had already taken away a lot of first-hand information.
Xu Jingxing did not refute the reporter's address to him; he said directly, "You mean that advertisement for Time Shop?"
His voice was faint, as if he were talking about something insignificant.
"That's right, it's this advertisement. There were insider rumors that Wang Xiyou had been chosen, but in the blink of an eye, it became Lu Wanzheng. It can only be said that Lu Wanzheng's backer really went to great lengths to grab resources for her."
The reporter spoke with absolute certainty.
"Ha, indeed, they went to great lengths." Xu Jingxing's expression was stern and aloof after hearing the reporter's words.
