Chapter 267 - The Press Conference (4)



Chapter 267 – The Press Conference (4)

Jin Zhilan's headstrong and honest arguments left everybody speechless. She seemed to be a calm woman when she entered but now she growled akin to a lioness.

Jiang Lanying expressed how grateful she was for this. "Thank you so much for coming here."

Jin Zhilan seriously nodded. "This is also my duty as much as it is to treat Jiang Li."

She softly smiled and faced the reporters again.

"I want to let everyone know that I am not ashamed of my husband. He is the man I love and who I hold dear to my heart. This will never change whether we have a child or not. I hope that everyone here will also be supportive of their partner's troubles. The last thing that I want to say is that after this press conference…"

She narrowed her eyes and sharply looked at them.

"I don't want to read even a single word antagonizing Jiang Li any more. If this happens again even after my warning, then I won't hesitate to press charges on every single person who refuses to stop harassing my husband. That's all."

There was a long silence after which nobody had anything to question. More like they couldn't.

Once again, they heard rapid footsteps rushing towards the hall. As they turned, they saw Jiang Li, who just reached the venue, huffing and puffing. His chest heaved as he took hasty breaths.

Jiang Lanying stiffened.

"It's Jiang Li!" Someone whispered from the crowd.

"He is here."

The source of all the fire that spread far and wide on Weibo was here but nobody talked to him out of pure fear that ran down their spines. His aura alone was so dangerous as if it said,

'Utter a single word to me and die.'

There was not even a single trace of hesitation or discomfort in his demeanor as he came in front of everyone, facing such terrible backlash for so many days.

Amidst the whispers and mutters, Jiang Li slowly walked towards her, his dark irises solely focused on Jiang Lanying. His tall figure stepped in front of her and her eyelashes trembled.

"Lanying," he said as his eyes bored into hers.

She faintly smiled. "Li…"

Jiang Lanying nervously lifted her gaze to meet his black eyes. "W-was I able to protect you this time?"

Silence.

"Was I finally able to do something that helped you?"

She bit her lip. "I am sorry, Li. I know that you didn't want me to give this press conference and face everyone here. I also know that you only said so to protect me. But this time, I wanted to be your shield," her shoulders mildly trembled as tears fell down her cheeks. "This time, I wanted you to depend on me."

Before she could say anything else, Jiang Li grabbed her face and crashed his lips onto hers. The cameramen filming this press conference almost dropped dead and their eyes popped out of their sockets.

Live, in front of millions of people in China who were watching the press conference, were just as stunned by the public display of affection. They choked hard and some even fell off their beds.

Lihua and Jiang Ruiling giggled, thoroughly enjoying it. They looked so cute that Lihua clicked numerous pictures of them.

Poor Jiang Lanying felt as if her soul flew out of her body. Her cheeks reddened to the darkest shade of red. Jiang Li shamelessly kissed her for a whole two minutes before he finally showed mercy on her.

This whole time, the journalists didn't know where to look. A series of awkward coughs echoed in the hall.

Jiang Lanying glared at him, feeling aggrieved. "Y-you…" she was so shocked and embarrassed for at least thirty seconds that she could only pitifully stammer.

She whispered, "What did you do? W-we are in a public place!"

Jiang Li sneered. "What's wrong? Who will dare stop me from kissing my wife? Let me see who has the guts."

Jiang Lanying was speechless. "You…are shameless."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Jiang Li held her hands and kissed the back of it. "Thank you, Lanying. Thank you for doing this for me. I am the luckiest man who has you as my wife."

As soon as he heard what Jiang Lanying had to say, her words brought tears to his eyes. He never thought that he was a person who would ever cry. He never cried even when he learned of his condition. It felt sad and hurtful. But he never shed tears.

But when he saw his wife facing millions of people not to take the blame but stand up for him, he couldn't help but let his eyes turn misty. Jiang Lanying was always a quiet woman who didn't talk much.

But this time even if it was scary, she did it. Her courage shook him to his core and the only thing that he wanted now was to tightly hug her in his arms.

Jiang Li pulled her into his arms and let a tear slide down. "Thank you Lanying…"

Jiang Lanying tremblingly hugged him back. He looked back at her and flicked her forehead. "You are so silly. Why didn't you tell me before that you were going to say these things? I misunderstood you."

He pursed his lips. "Sorry for shouting at you."

She shook her head. "It's not your fault. I didn't tell you before because I wanted you to listen with the whole world. Sorry for worrying you."

He chuckled and kissed her again.

The reporters coughed.

Jiang Li narrowed his eyes. "What? Got any problem?"

They vigorously shook their heads.

"Also, now that I am here, let me clear this up. I didn't bother with the useless people throwing insults at me all this time because I don't care. But as you can see, my wife does. She has also given an ultimatum that you will suffer if this doesn't stop. So, I warn you that you better listen to my wife and heed to her advice. Otherwise, be ready to face cops at your door. I am my wife's slave so I will definitely follow what she has said."

"…"

They were speechless.

Slave?

"Since my wife wants to throw the offenders to jail, I will gladly do the job on her behalf."
