Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The press conference was held at the last minute. The venue was in Lin Qingqian’s company hall. It was simple and convenient.

Su Ying and Suisui didn’t know what she wanted to do, but Han Liubai’s gentle eyes were filled with worry as he watched her tidy her hair and clothes.

The reporters were almost all here, and Lin Qingqian was about to appear.

She had just taken a step when her wrist was grabbed. She looked down at her slender fingers and saw Han Liubai’s slightly dark expression.

“Have you thought about the consequences for Shi Guang Studio and Air if you do this?”

AIR was her independent brand name. It literally meant the air and sky. It meant that the development of this brand was as vast as the sky.

Lin Qingqian was wearing a pair of red bean earrings today. When she turned around, the red bean was swaying gently, reflecting in her gentle and worried eyes.

“I know that as the person-in-charge of the company, I should be responsible for the company and all of you.” Lin Qingqian pursed her lips, her expression firm. “But as Jiang Yanshen’s ex-wife and his current girlfriend, I have the obligation to help him clarify the rumors.”

Han Liubai frowned, his eyes filled with confusion. “You clearly broke up. Even if you reconciled, you didn’t have to do this for him. Is it worth it?”

Lin Qingqian’s thick and curled eyelashes trembled slightly, and her clear eyes flickered with fine light, like sunlight shining on the lake. It was beautiful but dazzling.

“I know that as an adult, I should maintain some rationality in a relationship.

As a businessman, I should be more sober.”

Her red lips curled up and she paused for a moment. When she spoke again, her voice was extremely firm. “But I don’t want to live in such a calculative manner. What’s the difference between maintaining my rationality and being a rock in my relationship? I don’t want to become a businessman who only cares about benefits and not friendship.”

Han Liubai’s fingertips loosened slightly. He wanted to persuade her again, but his throat tightened and he couldn’t say a word.

Lin Qingqian stretched out her hand and pried open his fingers. Her voice was light and pleasant. “Xiao Bai, believe me, I won’t disappoint you guys.”

Han Liubai’s arm hung back by his side, desolate as he watched her walk out.

He watched as she charged forward for another man and stood up to face the rumors.

“Why?” He lowered his eyes and muttered to himself, “What charm does that man of the Jiang Family have to make you so loyal?”

There was a temporary stage in front of the hall with a microphone placed there. Lin Qingqian walked to the microphone and stood still.

The reporters quickly took photos. Someone asked curiously, “Miss Lin, may I ask why you suddenly held this news conference today?”

Facing more than ten cameras, Lin Qingqian’s expression was indifferent, and her calm voice sounded unhurriedly. “I called this press conference today to clarify the problem regarding President Jiang Yanshen’s domestic violence during this period of time.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned for a moment before pressing the shutters crazily.

“Miss Lin, what do you mean by that? Could it be that you know something that we don’t?”

“Miss Lin, are you planning to cancel your cooperation with Tianyue Group because of the scandal of Director Jiang’s domestic violence?”

“Miss Lin, how much do you know about the Jiang Family?”

The reporters asked crazily, not giving Lin Qingqian a chance to speak at all.

Suisui, who was standing at the side, looked at Su Ying, who was live-streaming on her phone, and said softly, “What exactly does Qianqian want? Don’t tell me she wants to help Jiang Yanshen clarify things?”

Su Ying looked confused and replied, “I don’t know either!”

Lin Qingqian took off the fixed microphone and patted it twice to stop the endless stream of voices.

The venue fell silent all of a sudden. Everyone’s gazes were focused on her alone.

This included the netizens before the live-stream and… Jiang Yanshen, who had woken up early.

Jiang Yanshen sat on the bed and looked down at his cell phone. His deep eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.

She actually… stood up.

“Shi Guang Studio won’t cancel the cooperation with Tianyue Group. In addition, I want to tell everyone solemnly that although Jiang Yanshen has bipolar disorder, he definitely didn’t do anything violent.” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Miss Lin, why are you so sure?

“Miss Lin, are you so protective of Jiang Yanshen because of some unknown relationship between the two of you?”

“Miss Lin, may I ask what your relationship with Jiang Yanshen is?”

“Miss Lin…”

Amidst the series of questions, Lin Qingqian replied without any hesitation or scruples, “I’m his ex-wife.”

“I’m his ex-wife!”

These simple words were like a thunderclap that stunned everyone at the event location.

No one expected this woman in front of them to be the ex-wife who publicly rejected the marriage at Jiang Yanshen’s wedding and caused the Jiang family to lose face.

“This is my divorce certificate with Jiang Yanshen.” Lin Qingqian took out the divorce certificate that she had long prepared for everyone to see.

At the time of the divorce, she had torn it up and thrown it into the trash can. This was Jiang Yanshen’s. She had accidentally found it in his drawer and it came in handy today.

Everyone’s breathing stopped, and their hearts raced. F*ck, what explosive news is this!! Why didn’t you give me an exclusive!!

Seeing that none of them had any reaction, Lin Qingqian put down the divorce certificate and said clearly, “In the three years that I maintained my marriage with Jiang Yanshen, he didn’t use any violence on me, so the rumors on the

Internet that he abused me and that I had a miscarriage are pure nonsense.”

“Miss Lin, if Director Jiang wasn’t involved in the domestic violence, why did you get a divorce?”

“That’s right! If not for domestic violence, why did you publicly reject the marriage at the wedding back then?”

“Miss Lin, you’ve already divorced Director Jiang. Why did you choose to stand up at this time to help him clarify? Is it because he promised you something?”

Lin Qingqian’s eyes were gentle, and her gaze became sharper when she looked at the reporter who asked the question. “I divorced Jiang Yanshen only because our personalities were incompatible. Couples would often quarrel and get a divorce. Why can’t Jiang Yanshen and I get a divorce?”

“But didn’t you divorce him in such an ugly manner because there was something hidden?”

“The secret is that at that time, I was determined to get a divorce and Mr. Jiang wanted to retain the marriage. Under the circumstances that we had different opinions, I made a very immature decision.”

When Lin Qingqian mentioned the divorce, she didn’t pour out the bitterness of so many years. She even attributed the final reason for the divorce to herself.

“In the three years that I was married to Jiang Yanshen, we both had areas that we didn’t do well in. After the divorce, we also reflected on the reasons for our failed marriage. Although the divorce was very public and ugly, it doesn’t mean that we can’t be friends anymore.

Be it as Jiang Yanshen’s ex-wife or friend, I should stand up at this time.

Moreover, I’m involved in the rumors, so I have to clarify things for myself.” “Then what’s with the photos exposed online?

Lin Qingqian glanced at him from the corner of her eye. “Is my face in the photos? Have you ever heard of anyone telling a story just from looking at a photo?”

The reporter “…”

“Even if you say that, it doesn’t prove that the person in the photo isn’t you.” A reporter continued to ask in disbelief.

Lin Qingqian said in a neutral tone, “Then what evidence do you have to prove that the person in the photo is definitely me?”

The reporter: “…”

This was an unsolvable problem. They couldn’t prove that the person in the photo was Lin Qingqian, and Lin Qingqian couldn’t prove that the person in the photo was not her.

Her red lips curled up slightly, and her light tone slowly sounded. “If I say that you can check the hospital’s medical records, you will still say that Jiang Yanshen hired a private doctor for me, so let’s skip this step. I’ll tell the truth, and it’s up to the public to believe me!”

“But you said that Director Jiang didn’t abuse you. What do you say about Madam Jiang coming out to testify against Director Jiang?”

“It’s not convenient for me to express my opinion on the Jiang Family’s matter with my current identity. I only have one sentence…” Lin Qingqian faced the reporter’s live-stream camera and said word by word, “I, will, always, believe, in, Jiang, Yan, Shen.”

“Miss Lin, you mean that Director Jiang didn’t abuse Madam Jiang? Then why did Madam Jiang say that?”

“I don’t know, but I’m sure the police and the law will clear the name of an innocent person.”

“Miss Lin, you said that Director Jiang didn’t abuse you. Then did you already know that Director Jiang has bipolar disorder? Is your divorce related to this?”

Compared to his bipolar disorder, the media began to pay more attention to the gossip of their divorce.

After all, the public liked to watch the melodramatic relationship entanglements of wealthy families.

Lin Qingqian’s eyelashes fluttered and she pursed her lips slightly. Her voice changed slightly. “I found out after the divorce.”

The reporters became even more excited when they heard this and asked, “If you had known from the beginning that he had this illness, would you still have married him? When you found out after the divorce, were you glad that you had already divorced him?”

“I don’t know, and no. I didn’t rejoice after I found out” Lin Qingqian’s voice gradually turned cold. Just as the reporters were about to ask more questions, she suddenly interrupted them. “Everyone here, I hope you can understand one thing…

In an instant, the entire venue was silent. Everyone’s eyes were focused on her alone.

Lin Qingqian’s slender fingers held the microphone tightly. Her red lips pursed slightly, and her voice was like willow catkins. Every word she said was filled with strength.

“Jiang Yanshen is sick, but he has seen a doctor and taken medicine for treatment. When he was tortured by his illness, he never hurt anyone. The only person he hurt was himself.

As his ex-wife, I can tell everyone very responsibly that Jiang Yanshen is not a good husband in our marriage. He’s stubborn, arrogant, and a workaholic. He always likes to arrange other people’s lives. But, we can’t deny that he’s a good person!

I hope you can stop using his illness to attack his character and slander him. Give him the most basic respect as a patient.”

“Also—I‘ Lin Qingqian took a deep breath and smiled at the camera. She said firmly, “The person that I declared to be in love with on Weibo is also Mr. Jiang Yanshen. You can attack me as much as you want. In addition… I want to tell those dirty hands hidden in the darkness…

No matter how many dirty and despicable methods you have, feel free to use them. Because Jiang Yanshen will no longer be alone. There will always be a

figure by his side called Lin Qingqian..”
