It Started With a Kiss: Leng Shao's Beloved Wife

"Hello, friends from the media. I'm Wu Xinyan..." She spoke slowly, her eyes sweeping across the entire audience with determination. "Today, I'm here to reveal a truth..." She paused, raising the document in her hand. "This is... Mr. Huang, the reporter who reported false news about me, received five huge sums of money in the past three months from Mr. Zhou, who everyone knew as my intended marriage partner." Wu Xinyan's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard throughout the venue.

The bank's transaction records were clearly displayed on the huge projection screen, with each payment clearly marked.

There was an uproar at the scene, and flash lights flashed wildly like exploding stars.

The reporters all turned their cameras to media person Huang who was sitting in the corner. He was pale, sweating profusely, and his eyes were evasive, not daring to look Wu Xinyan in the eye.

"This... this is slander! It's forged!" He defended himself with a trembling voice, but it seemed pale and powerless.

Wu Xinyan ignored him and continued, "I believe that all of our media friends have sharp eyes. As for Mr. Zhou..." She changed the subject and a new document appeared on the screen again, "This is the financial statement of Mr. Zhou's company for the past year. I believe that all the business reporters here can see the problems at a glance." The densely packed numbers and charts on the projection were undoubtedly huge loopholes in the eyes of professionals.

It turned out that Mr. Zhou's company had long been insolvent, and he urgently needed to marry into the Luo family to save the family business.

Zhou's marriage partner suddenly stood up, pointed at Wu Xinyan and shouted: "You! You are slandering me!" His voice was trembling and he was obviously confused.

"Whether it's slander or not, I believe everyone can judge for themselves." Wu Xinyan responded calmly, without a trace of panic in her eyes.

Zhou's marriage partner sat back in his chair dejectedly. He knew that everything was over.

Reporters swarmed in, surrounding Zhou's marriage partner and Huang's media person, and sharp questions bombarded them like cannonballs.

The press conference was in chaos, but Wu Xinyan, accompanied by Luo Yichen, calmly left the venue.

In the car, Luo Yichen held Wu Xinyan's hand tightly, his eyes full of praise: "You did a good job, Xinyan." Wu Xinyan leaned lightly on Luo Yichen's shoulder, a faint smile on her face.

However, at this moment, Luo Yichen's cell phone rang, and the screen showed an incoming call from "Aunt"... He frowned slightly and pressed the answer button.

Aunt Luo's sharp voice came from the other end of the phone: "Yi Chen, you must stop her immediately! All this is her..."

Luo Yichen hung up the phone with a gloomy face.

Wu Xinyan noticed his change and asked softly, "What's wrong?" Luo Yichen held her hand tightly and said in a low voice, "Auntie is still stubborn."

At the family meeting, Aunt Luo shouted at the top of her lungs, pointing at the irrefutable evidence on the projection, and still insisted that it was forged by Wu Xinyan.

"She just wants to destroy the marriage. She has ulterior motives!" However, her accusation did not receive much response this time.

The family members looked at each other, their eyes full of doubt and hesitation.

Before, they believed what Aunt Luo said without a doubt, but now, they had to re-examine the matter.

"Enough." Luo Yichen's cold voice interrupted Aunt Luo's shouting.

He stood up and walked over to Wu Xinyan, firmly holding her hand. Facing the crowd, he spoke in a strong and powerful voice, "I have always believed in Xinyan, and I believe that the truth will eventually come out. But some people," he glanced sharply at Aunt Luo, "in order to achieve their own goals, they don't hesitate to fabricate lies, and even..." He paused, his tone even colder, "misappropriate family funds and enrich themselves!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the conference room.

The family members looked at Aunt Luo in shock, unable to believe that the elder they had always respected would do such a thing.

Aunt Luo's face was pale and her lips were trembling, but she was unable to refute.

Luo Yichen took out a few sheets of paper from the file and placed them on the table. "These are the evidence of my aunt's misappropriation of funds over the years. I have handed them over to a lawyer." His tone was calm, but with unquestionable majesty.

Aunt Luo slumped in the chair, her eyes empty, as if she had aged ten years in an instant.

"Also," Luo Yichen's eyes swept over the crowd again, "regarding the marriage..." He paused, looking meaningfully at Zhou's marriage partner, whose face was equally grim, "I think we need to reconsider."

Zhou's marriage partner opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Luo Yichen's cold eyes.

The air froze and the conference room was silent.

Suddenly, a family elder slowly spoke: "Yi Chen, you..."

"Yi Chen, have you thought it through? This is a major matter that concerns the future of the Luo family." The elder's tone was heavy, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

Luo Yichen held Wu Xinyan's hand tightly, giving her silent comfort, and then answered firmly: "I have thought it through. I choose to trust my wife and my own judgment."

Another family member also spoke up: "We were indeed misled before. Now it seems that this marriage really needs to be reconsidered." More and more people began to agree. Aunt Luo's lies were exposed, and the family of Zhou's marriage partner was also implicated. Their previous promises and guarantees now seemed like a joke.

Zhou's marriage partner's face turned pale. He didn't expect things to develop to this point.

He was unwilling to fail. When family members left the meeting room one after another, he suddenly stood up, rushed towards Wu Xinyan, tried to grab her, and shouted: "You are the one who did all this! Just wait and see!" However, before he could get close to Wu Xinyan, he was stopped by the security guards arranged by Luo Yichen and quickly taken away from the scene.

Representatives of his family also hurriedly followed him out, with obvious disgust and alienation in their eyes. It was obvious that they had begun to distance themselves from him.

Wu Xinyan looked at the embarrassed figure of Zhou's marriage partner leaving, and did not feel much joy of victory in her heart.

She knew the battle was not over yet.

Although the family members' attitudes have changed, she has not yet completely won their trust.

She turned to look at Luo Yichen. His eyes were full of determination and support, which made her feel a little comforted.

Luo Yichen gently stroked her hair and said softly, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

Wu Xinyan nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to keep herself calm.

The press conference is about to begin. This is her last chance to prove herself and also the beginning of her and Luo Yichen facing future challenges together.

She took Luo Yichen's hand and walked towards the press conference, waiting for the final decision of fate.

The lights at the press conference suddenly lit up, and countless cameras were focused on her... Wu Xinyan gripped the microphone tightly.
