Why were they so anxious to shield Lin Nuan without first distinguishing right from wrong?

  A netizen asked if the Lin family had gone mad, to be shielding Lin Nuan so unreasonably without even looking at the evidence. If Lin Nuan really committed adultery this time, wasn’t the Lin family afraid of being implicated, causing their share price to fall?

  Immediately, someone agreed, saying if Lin Nuan really made Fu Huai’an such a big cuckold and the Lins remained so protective of Lin Nuan, Fu Huai’an would certainly destroy the Lins! The fact that he was made such a big cuckold was exposed for the entire nation to see, and no one would be able to tolerate something like this, so how would he not leave in rage?

  The gossipy public was keenly interested in Old Master Lin and Lin Jingquan’s Weibo accounts, guessing how the Lin family would end up. Bai Xiaonian also released a Weibo post, admitting she had recruited the water army.

  [@Bai Xiaonian: I’m Lin Nuan’s best friend. I was the one who hired the water army, and it was to scold you b*stards out there! I’ll scold whoever dares to slander my best friend!]

  Everyone knew Bai Xiaonian and Lin Nuan were the best of friends. The two had been roommates in their college days and were sworn buddies. Later, they entered the Haicheng Broadcast Building together. Lin Nuan became the show host of “Morning News Daily”, and after she moved on to “Talking with Lin Nuan”, she recommended Bai Xiaonian to take over her position.

  Subsequently, Lin Nuan’s career progressed smoothly, and Bai Xiaonian’s career was going well right now as well, with her going to the US to be an overseas reporter.

  [@King of Haicheng: I’m Lin Nuan’s fan. I was the one who hired the water army, and it was to scold you b*stards out there! I’ll scold whoever dares to slander my idol!]

  Who was King of Haicheng? The name the gossipy public knew was Lu Tianyu…


  When Lu Tianyu took part in the talent contest, no one doubted his singing and talent. But what people idolized him the most for was his skill at scolding people, which was second to none. Netizens teasingly called that mouth of his “rocket artillery”.

  But why was King of Haicheng standing out to support Lin Nuan? Was he really Lin Nuan’s fan?

  The crowd hadn’t calmed down from the surprise before more explosive news came their way…


  A large water army suddenly appeared on the internet, shielding Lin Nuan aggressively!

  Everyone refreshed their Weibos constantly, wanting to see which mysterious person was recruiting a water army for Lin Nuan.

  Later, the crowd got their wish granted when the Kaide Corporation’s official Weibo released a piece of news…


  [@Kaide Corporation’s Official Weibo: I’m the Kaide Corporation, the company of Lin Nuan’s man. I was the one who hired the water army, and it was to scold you b*stards out there! I’ll scold whoever dares to slander my lady boss!]

  This was a weird happening in the entertainment circle. It was the first time the people who recruited a water army confessed to it in such an aboveboard manner…


  Subsequently, “Lin Nuan” and “water army” became the trending terms on Weibo’s search.

  Originally, the internet was fervently discussing the “extramarital affair scandal,” and Lin Nuan looked like she was about to become the object of universal condemnation. But now, suddenly, it had evolved into the “water army scandal”.

  Just a moment ago, Lin Nuan was being said to have made Fu Huai’an a cuckold, and by defending Lin Nuan, the Lin family was bound to be destroyed. But now, the Kaide Corporation’s official Weibo had stood out as well. What was going on?

  Could it be that there was more to this so-called extramarital affair incident than met the eye?

  But even if one could photoshop the photo, one couldn’t fake the video. They truly saw Lin Nuan hold that man’s hand… and they even hugged each other after that.

  No matter how vivid the crowd’s imagination was, they couldn’t have guessed that Lin Nuan was holding the hand of her biological older brother, one she had been separated from for a few decades and finally found after a great deal of effort.

  Someone raised a doubt, asking why an adulterous pair would go to a cemetery—a place that was so creepy—for their rendezvous. Could there be more to it than met the eye?

  But even though everyone was curious to find out what was going on, no one had the guts to go investigate at the cemetery. Moreover, the cemetery would have closed for the day at this hour.

  Fang Yan ordered the water army hired to slander Lin Nuan to stop what they were doing. The netizens were still in shock from seeing all the bigshots standing out to admit they were the ones who recruited the water army to help Lin Nuan, so the scolding had lessened. They started asking where Lin Nuan went, demanding that she come out to explain things and stop tantalizing them.

  Someone said that Lin Nuan was trying to create a hype, but she went overboard in doing so. This time, he would like to see how Lin Nuan extracted herself from this mess!

  Fang Yan couldn’t keep still after seeing this. She got Lin Nuan’s official Weibo to release a Weibo post that she had crafted early on.

  The well-written long Weibo post talked about Lin Nuan’s parentage all over again, and it also revealed the fact that Lin Nuan had taken the biological older brother she recently found to pay respects at their birth parents’ graves.

  Regardless of the choice of words or tone, the Weibo post came across as very respectful and formal.

  Lin Nuan’s official Weibo then followed up with a ruthless move!

  It directly uploaded the link of a post and said nothing else!

  After tapping on the link, one would see the voice recording of that paparazzi who followed and took photos of Lin Nuan and Cen Mo… on the phone with Fang Yan’s friend. That paparazzi said very straightforwardly over the phone that it wasn’t his intention to destroy Lin Nuan, that he was merely seeking money!

  Then, later, Fang Yan rejected him. After that, he sent a message to Fang Yan’s friend on WeChat. There were screenshots of voice recordings converted to text. Although there were some spelling errors, the contents were still understood by everyone.

  The rough meaning was, if Lin Nuan didn’t pay up, he would ruin Lin Nuan!

  That guy even asked for help contacting Lin Nuan again, saying to pass on the message that he would give Lin Nuan one last chance, but the money he was asking for was triple his initial asking price! He asked Fang Yan’s friend to help ask Lin Nuan if money was more important or if her career and marriage were more important.

  Fang Yan’s friend replied, saying that a clear conscience wasn’t afraid of false accusation.

  Then, the person on the other end of the line seemed to have gone berserk. He said he was going to recruit a water army to destroy Lin Nuan, to make Lin Nuan unable to lift her head up anymore.

  [@Lin Nuan’s Official Weibo: The reason we’ve been keeping quiet isn’t because we have a guilty conscience. Having found her biological brother ought to be a joyous affair, and this is also Ms. Lin Nuan’s private matter, so she wasn’t planning on making it known to the public! But who knew, someone blinded by greed would make an issue of this! Everyone knows Ms. Lin Nuan is of sound character, so why would she cheat on her husband and ruin her good name? Just as Old Master Lin said, if she met someone she really loved, she could get a divorce and be with that person. There’s no need for her to be involved in an extramarital affair! Stop saying things like Ms. Lin Nuan can’t bear to part with her husband for his riches. Let me reveal something here to everyone. Before they got married, Ms. Lin Nuan’s husband, Mr. Fu, already transferred all his assets to Ms. Lin Nuan. All of them!]

  This piece of news was like a bomb that was dropped on them!

  Nobody dared to guess how much Fu Huai’an’s net worth was!

  Someone had said before that a few years back, when Fu Huai’an was dominating Wall Street, he held half of Wall Street in his hands…


  Chapter 1030 - The Hero Became a Prisoner of Loveery. But one thing was certain—it must surely be more than the entire Kaide Corporation added up!

  Mr. Fu had transferred all his assets to Lin Nuan before they got married? Was Mr. Fu a goon or what!

  But it didn’t seem quite right to call Mr. Fu a goon either. There was no businessman more brilliant than Mr. Fu…


  Could it be that the hero became a prisoner of love?

  But… there wasn’t a need for him to use his entire net worth to tie up a lady!

  Even if they were to get married, he could very well just transfer the title of their house to Lin Nuan after they got married or give her some additional properties. Wasn’t Mr. Fu afraid that Lin Nuan might run away with all his assets after he transferred them to her?

  Moreover, there were plenty of prettier, younger girls than Lin Nuan in the world. Why was Fu Huai’an so hopelessly devoted to Lin Nuan and Lin Nuan alone!

  Everyone concluded that, perhaps, he had met his one true love, and it was because his true love was of a sound character that Mr. Fu dared to do this!

  The crowd was green with envy towards Lin Nuan! Lin Nuan must have saved the universe in a past life to have met a husband who loved her so much that he was willing to give her all his assets. Even the Lin family, which had no blood relations to her, defended her so fiercely.

  [@Light little feather: Honestly speaking, only after getting married did I realize that marriage is the tomb of love. I was classmates with my husband back in college. We were each other’s first love, and despite that, after getting married, we became bogged down by the trivial matters of everyday living because of this one thing called money! It’s impossible for my husband to give me his entire salary. After we had kids, I became a stay-at-home mom, and he gives me a 1000RMB allowance every month. With that, I need to buy all sorts of things for the kids, and I can’t even bear to buy a bottle of mineral water outside. Even then, my husband still thinks that I’m wasteful with his money!]

  [@Been hurt, been in love: Seeing Ms. Lin Nuan and Mr. Fu, I believe in love again!]

  [@Wild Lily: After I got married to my husband, we decided to keep separate finances. After we had a kid, he became in charge of buying the child his milk powder and diapers, whilst I became in charge of buying our child his toys. But when I spend my own money on clothes and skin care products, he’s displeased. If I spend money on myself, he thinks of a way to get me to spend the same amount on him, and only then is he content. He also complains, wanting me to help pay for the child’s milk powder and diapers. But before the child turned one, I breast-fed him! I don’t understand. If the mother is the one giving birth to the child, and the mother is the one raising the child as well, then what need is there for a father? Don’t tell me the woman has another person to wait upon on top of taking care of the child! I never asked for a cent from him, yet he keeps thinking of ways to be calculative with me. I have no idea how much he makes. When I ask him where the money is, he says he used it to bring in goods. When I ask him about the goods, he says he sold them. When I ask him where the money is if he sold them, he says he used it to bring in goods… hur hur hur! Anyway, he always has his logic. I really feel very tired! Let me give a word of advice to the young ladies who have yet to marry—just don’t! It’s really too tiring! If you want a kid, just go to the sperm bank and get yourself a test tube baby. Way better than getting married to have kids!]

  [@Health Preserving Master: Young ladies, don’t listen to those busybodies and get married early. Marriage is a cage for a woman. Because those busybodies have fallen into the fire pit themselves, they want all the other women to end up in the fire pit like them. Think about your parents’ marriage—are they happy? There’s only one Fu Huai’an in this world, and he already belongs to Ms. Lin Nuan. Stop fantasizing that you’ll obtain a Fu Huai’an of your own. Impossible! Money is king! With money, you will discover that men… are all trash!]

  The topic changed, and women started bashing their husbands…


  When many unmarried young ladies saw what Lin Nuan’s official Weibo posted, they were truly envious of Lin Nuan, and they wanted to look for a husband like Fu Huai’an!

  But seeing the comments below, the young ladies all beat a retreat!

  Yes, there was only one Fu Huai’an in this world, and Lin Nuan had already beat them to it. They had no hope…


  With so many real-life examples in the comments, they served as slaps, slapping those young ladies who looked forward to marriage and love to their senses!

  All the examples were telling them that marriage was a fire pit!

  All of the examples said that girls needed to be independent and needed to make money! Making money was more important than marriage! With money in hand, they’d have security, and they wouldn’t be flustered.

  Right now, Lin Nuan had just finished speaking on the phone with Old Master Lin…


  Lin Nuan was sensible this time. She called Old Master Lin and told him directly that the man was her long lost older brother. She had verified it with a DNA test in Morocco and confirmed the fact that he was her brother. Hence, she took him to her birth parents. She hadn’t expected such a big fiasco to arise from that.

  When Ji Yun wasn’t around, Old Master Lin heard that she became sober and left a letter. Although he hadn’t seen the letter himself, he heard that Ji Yun said they had lost a boy.

  Old Master Lin only said that it must be Lin Nuan’s parents blessing them from above that led Lin Nuan to find him. When Lin Nuan told Old Master Lin… that her biological brother was Lin Chen’s friend Cen Mo, Old Master Lin thought it was even more of a coincidence. He said that it must have been predestined. After so many twists and turns, it turned out they had this affinity long ago!

  By saying this, Old Master Lin had regarded Cen Mo as a child of his. Before hanging up, he asked Lin Nuan to bring Cen Mo to visit him when they were free.

  Lin Nuan replied, saying they were planning to go over for a meal the night before New Year’s Eve. Only then did Old Master Lin hang up.

  After ending the call with Old Master Lin, Lin Nuan called Liang Mulan.

  The instant that Liang Mulan answered, she said, “I wanted to call you, but your dad wouldn’t let me. He said that with you in the middle of such a big fiasco, you’d surely be busy. He asked me not to add to your troubles. I wanted to ask your dad to tell them that the man was your older brother, but Xiao Ran said whether or not to make announcements to the public was your decision to make. Nuan Nuan… why didn’t you tell us that you found your brother? Now that things have ended up like this, why don’t you tell Cen Mo to respond to it, else those people will keep slandering you!”


  Liang Mulan had the wrong idea. She thought it was Cen Mo who was unwilling to reveal his identity. She thought that was why Lin Nuan hadn’t explained herself up to now.

  “Mom, don’t be anxious. My manager knows what to do about this. I have faith in her. Look how messy things got on the internet the past few times, but, in the end, Fang Yan always thinks of a way to settle it. Don’t worry… I guarantee you’ll be pleased with the outcome!”


  Liang Mulan was super anxious before this, but hearing how calm Lin Nuan sounded, her heart was gradually put at ease.

  After placating Old Master Lin and Liang Mulan, Lin Nuan finally had the time to video-call Fu Huai’an, who was far away in Jincheng. From the video, she could tell that the team not far behind Fu Huai’an was sorting out documents. She seemed to have heard them saying they had to attend a meeting with the troops tomorrow.

  “Fang Yan told Little Lu about what was happening on Weibo, so I didn’t interfere this time. Thankfully the matter was resolved rather well!” Fu Huai’an said.
