When Zhu Meiqian left, Su Mailou generously escorted her to the hotel entrance and even gave her a hug goodbye.

"Thank you for coming to see me despite your busy schedule."

The next day, Su Maiqi received a text message from Liu Jinghua: "Thank you, young lady. I think I know who you are. We met in the elevator. Consider it a favor I owe you, and it's for life."

Later, reflecting on the whole incident, Su Maiqi realized that Liu Jinghua was a very perceptive person.

If they could guess that she was the person in the elevator, then they probably suspected that she was the one who leaked the information to the paparazzi.

There were no better options at the time, so we took a gamble.

There were also various tests along the way.

He only sent her this message after both of them had successfully extricated themselves and confirmed that their itinerary and privacy had not been leaked.

By a twist of fate, Liu Jinghua commissioned Chenxing to create the "Key to the Heart Lock".

Upon learning the news, Su Maiqi considered whether she should ask Liu Jinghua to repay the favor by doing some marketing for Chenxing.

But think about it, privacy and personal relationships are very important to celebrities.

Back then, Liu Jinghua owed me a favor because I helped protect her privacy. If repaying that favor today requires sacrificing my privacy, it's really going too far.

There's no need for me to make things difficult for my idol just for publicity or to add a little something extra.

But who could have imagined that this matter would eventually come to light?

Now it's not about adding icing on the cake, but about needing idols to help in times of need.

But could he really believe that this news wasn't leaked by Chen Xing?

As Su Maiqi drove, she felt a little uneasy.

Liu Jinghua was not surprised to receive her call, and it seemed that he already knew about her new identity.

After all, given Liu Jinghua's capabilities, finding out her specific information back then wouldn't have been difficult at all.

This plagiarism incident involving Miss Y exposed her identity, and with the widespread rumors and the title of "President's Wife," she is now a somewhat famous internet celebrity.

Liu Jinghua was not surprised that he knew her identity.

Surprisingly, he invited her to meet him at his private villa, where she could be alone.

Su Maiqi drove for an hour before arriving at the villa area that Liu Jinghua had mentioned.

Sunlight streamed onto the winding asphalt road, flanked by neatly trimmed lawns and carefully arranged flowerbeds, the air filled with the faint fragrance of flowers and the scent of fresh grass.

This celebrity villa community is located on the edge of the city, backed by lush mountains and facing a shimmering lake, like a secluded paradise.

The architectural styles are diverse, ranging from modern minimalism to classical elegance. Each villa showcases the owner's taste and personality through its unique design and decoration.

The address Liu Jinghua provided was located in the center of this villa area.

At the entrance to the villa is a small fountain, its gentle flow adding a touch of vibrancy to the tranquil space.

Su Maiqi gave her name, and the security guard turned on his walkie-talkie and reported the situation.

Soon a young man came and led her into the courtyard of the villa.

Inside is a striking detached villa with a modern minimalist exterior.

With smooth and simple lines, the exterior walls are mainly in a sophisticated gray color, paired with large floor-to-ceiling windows, which not only ensures indoor lighting but also cleverly brings the natural landscape indoors.

Upon entering the villa, the first thing that catches the eye is a spacious open-plan living room, where high ceilings and a huge crystal chandelier create a luxurious yet warm atmosphere.

Several abstract art paintings hang on the living room walls, their vibrant colors contrasting with the gray sofa and carpet, adding a touch of brightness.

One side of the living room is a huge glass wall. Pushing open the glass doors reveals a meticulously designed courtyard with a small swimming pool surrounded by green plants and comfortable lounge chairs, making it an ideal place to relax.

Liu Jinghua's hair was still wet, and he was wearing a large white bathrobe, leaning lazily on the deck chair, looking like he had just finished swimming.

He glanced at Su Maiqi, straightened up, gestured for her to sit in the wicker chair next to him, and then began, "Miss Su, we've finally met."

"Hello, Mr. Liu. We are very sorry about this incident. On behalf of Chenxing, I would like to apologize to you. I have already checked, and the information was not leaked by a Chenxing employee. However, regardless of the circumstances, we are very sorry that your information was leaked when you ordered Chenxing products."

I know that for a celebrity like you, this could bring a terrible series of troubles.

Although she had a feeling that it had nothing to do with Chenxing employees, she did ask Gu Tingyu to arrange for a thorough investigation just to be on the safe side.

I only dared to speak after confirming that this matter was indeed unrelated to Chenxing employees before entering the villa.

"I know this leak has nothing to do with your company. The information was leaked from my side. I've dragged Chenxing into this, and it's time for me to repay the favor."

Liu Jinghua spoke calmly and without any change in expression.

Su Maiqi was taken aback. It seemed Liu Jinghua had also investigated this matter; he acted very quickly.

But is the information leaked from Liu Jinghua's side aimed at Liu Jinghua or Chen Xing?

"Mr. Liu, I wonder how much this incident has affected you?"

Su Maiqi needs to know whether Liu Jinghua is willing to make their relationship public before they can discuss their next steps.

"I didn't originally intend to keep it a secret for too long. Dating can be kept secret, but I didn't want to get married in secret. It's just that this matter came out a little earlier than I expected."

"Congratulations! Wishing Mr. Liu a long and happy marriage." Su Maiqi reacted quickly. Liu Jinghua's plans to get married were explosive news, and it would definitely dominate the trending topics for a few days.

"It's not a big deal, and it hasn't had a significant impact. However, the order screenshot that was leaked was taken by my assistant and sent to me. We really need to investigate how it got leaked."

Liu Jinghua's expression turned serious.

Su Maiqi can understand, after all, as a celebrity, protecting privacy is a very important thing.

Since this incident was leaked from Mr. Liu's side, it means there are unsafe factors around him.

That's like a time bomb.

Mr. Liu will certainly investigate this seriously.

Su Maiqi also breathed a sigh of relief. When she came, her biggest worry was how to convince Liu Jinghua that the news did not come from Chenxing.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Liu had already found the clues without me lifting a finger, which made things much easier.

"So, what are Mr. Liu's thoughts?"

"Since it's already out in the open, let's just announce the marriage. I won't hold Chenxing responsible; on the contrary, I'll thank her for witnessing our love."

Others naturally have no reason to pursue the matter of Chenxing leaking his privacy, and besides, I don't care about this privacy anymore, so everyone probably won't pay attention to it anymore, and it will be difficult to steer the conversation.”
