Chapter 1569 Don't Stop Me From Pursuing Women

The door slammed shut.

Hua Cuo rubbed her temples. “They’re finally gone. Su Bei, is this a kindergarten?”

Su Bei burst out laughing. “Anyway, they’re not in first grade yet. Fourth Sister, you’re tired. Shall I treat you to hotpot later?”

“Okay,” Hua Cuo agreed.

A moment later, someone knocked on the door again. Su Bei thought she knew who it was and said, “Come in. If you have anything else to say, say it then leave as soon as possible.”

The person pushed the door open timidly. It was Xiao Ling’s sister, Xiao Xi. She was the one who was violated by Xiao Ming last time.

She was the most recent victim, so her testimony would be the most effective.

But she had also chosen to retreat.

Xiao Xi said weakly, “President Su, I’m here to apologize to you.”

“There’s no need. You made the choice you think is the best. I have no reason to blame you.” Su Bei’s voice was cold. Although she didn’t blame her, it didn’t mean that she had no objections to her decision.

Those women had given up the best chance to get justice for themselves.

“I’m sorry,” Xiao Xi said.

Su Bei said calmly, “If there’s nothing else, you can leave first.”

“President Su, I have a presumptuous request.”

“Since you know you’re being presumptuous, don’t say anything more.” Su Bei had no intention of bargaining with her.

Xiao Xi was speechless, but she didn’t blame Su Bei. If she had to blame someone, she could only blame herself for being weak. She said softly, “The doctor said that my mother only has two or three months to live. No medicine is useful, and it’s useless even if she goes for a heart transplant. I can’t see her worrying about me even before she died.”

Su Bei was silent.

She continued, “I think staying by Lawyer Hua’s side to help will compensate for my guilt for wasting your time.”

Su Bei said, “Then ask Lawyer Hua about this. I can’t make the decision for her.”

Hua Cuo glanced at her and said, “Alright, then help me organize the information.”

“Thank you, Mr. Su. Thank you, Lawyer Hua.” Xiao Xi quickly thanked them. It seemed that she was very satisfied to be able to stay.

Actually, Su Bei didn’t hate her. It was just that it was a little hard for her to calm down as it had to do with this matter. Seeing that Hua Cuo didn’t object, she let her be.

…

In Lu Heting’s office.

Lu Hang reported, “After this incident, Xiao Ming is very restrained. We can’t find any evidence against him. Old Master Xiao brought him home and scolded him. I’m afraid he won’t do anything wrong for the time being.”

“It’s a good thing that he’s restraining himself. Keep an eye on him,” Lu Heting instructed in a low voice.

“I’ve already asked people to keep an eye on him,” Lu Hang said.

Lu Heting rubbed his eyebrows. If Xiao Ming gave himself away, he would definitely not let him escape this time.

If he turned over a new leaf, it would be considered a merit too.

It all depended on what choice he made.

…

Xu Zhiqin and He Xuyan’s relations.h.i.+p had been stable recently.

However, no matter how well they covered it, they could not hide from the paparazzi’s eyes. In the end, they were still photographed.

The matter between Xu Zhiqin and Pan Hongsen had yet to die down. Now that such a thing had happened, netizens naturally had different opinions.

[With Director He’s ability, how could he like Xu Zhiqin? I remember that when Xu Zhiqin went to audition for Director He’s new movie, she was rejected.]

[Could it be that Xu Zhiqin took the initiative to approach him? Director He doesn’t look like he would fall for anyone.]

[However, the two of them are actually quite compatible. I think they’re a good match!]

[Don’t you think that Xu Zhiqin was very proactive toward Director He and kept getting close to him? At that time, I thought that she was motivated, so she kept asking Director He for advice. Now, it seems that she had those sorts of intentions at that time.]

[Tsk, tsk, tsk. It seems that she has a lot of tricks up her sleeve.]

In the entertainment industry, women had always been at a disadvantage. It was always their fault.

Meanwhile, men could easily retreat unscathed.

Xu Zhiqin was a little fl.u.s.tered after being photographed this time. She could give her artistes a hundred suggestions or public relations methods, but when it came to her own situations, she was at a loss.

He Xuyan’s att.i.tude was the most important in this matter.

After Xiao Ling was discharged from the hospital, she returned to Xu Zhiqin’s side as an a.s.sistant. When she saw the news, she asked, “Zhiqin, are we going to release a clarification statement?”

“Let’s wait a little longer!” Xu Zhiqin was filming and had yet to contact He Xuyan.

If she made a statement now, it would be easy for her to embarra.s.s herself in the future.

Xu Zhiqin was busy filming again.

He Xuyan appeared on set with a mask on. He was reading a script and waiting for her.

When Xu Zhiqin finished filming, she immediately saw him sitting there.

“Zhiqin, Director He is here.” Xiao Ling was very happy. “But I saw reporters outside the door. I wonder what Director He will say.”

Xu Zhiqin did not want to continue being in a dilemma. This time, she would see how He Xuyan responded.

She quickly washed up, changed her clothes, and walked toward He Xuyan.

He Xuyan stood up. He wore a mask and a cap, but his eyes were revealed. They looked exceptionally deep.

He reached out and held Xu Zhiqin’s hand. “Let’s go.”

Xu Zhiqin was held by him and said in a low voice, “There are many reporters outside.”

“I happen to have a few things to tell them.” He Xuyan chuckled and let go of her hand.

Xu Zhiqin’s hand was empty, and so was her heart.

As soon as the two of them walked out, the reporters came forward. “Director He, Zhiqin, are you two in a relations.h.i.+p?”

“I wonder if Director He took the initiative to pursue Zhiqin or if it was the other way around?”

“Is there any good news you want to tell us? Everyone is looking forward to it and is very concerned about you two. Especially since Zhiqin was once hurt, her fans are very concerned about your relations.h.i.+p.”

Xu Zhiqin’s heart was a little empty when He Xuyan let go of her hand just now. Now that she was facing the reporters, her gaze was a little lost.

He Xuyan took a microphone and said calmly, “I’ll explain it to everyone today, but I hope that after this explanation, no one will continue to bother us. We don’t want private matters to be exposed to the public.”

“Okay, okay. So, what’s your explanation?” The reporters quickly nodded and asked.

“Please show me some respect and don’t hinder me from pursuing women. Otherwise, I won’t know what to do if I scare my girlfriend away.” After He Xuyan finished speaking, he reached out and pulled Xu Zhiqin toward him. His eyes were bright. “Thank you, everyone.”

Xu Zhiqin’s hand was held tightly by him. He stood in front of her, s.h.i.+elding her from the gazes of the world and protecting her behind him.
