Love Comes After Marriage novel Chapter 229

Huo Jingjing's scandals spread rapidly. Even with Hai Rui's powerful attempt at suppressing the issue, they couldn't beat the exposure rate of 3+ scandals a day. The one-time international supermodel was once in an unreachable position, but becauseof the scandals, Huo Jingjing's status plummeted and she suffered the ridicule and insults of netizens. She even directly affected Hai Rui.

Fang Yu's PR method was to attract sympathy for Huo Jingjing. After all, she was originally the victim. However, Huo Jingjing wasn't in a positive mental state. If he wanted her to step out courageously, it wasn't going to be an easy task. A body was easy to teach, but, teaching a heart was harder than ascending to heaven.

Fang Yu had never been betrayed before, so he couldn't possibly relate to the bone-penetrating pain of being humiliated. However, Tangning understood that pain well.

So, Tangning spoke to Fang Yu on the phone before Fang Yu went to Huo Jingjing's apartment that night.

Huo Jingjing's assistant tidied her messy home as Fang Yu walked around and inspected the place.

Traces of Huo Jingjing's man remained present in the home. However, he had pierced a million holes into the woman he was living with.

"If you want to drink something, just take it from the fridge. I have no energy to move," Huo Jingjing said in a dispirited tone as she sat on the carpet.

Fang Yu scanned his eyes over Huo Jingjing and discovered her clothes were untidy, her hair was a mess, her face was pale and her eyes were lifeless.

"Tangning asked me to come over...she said you needed someone to keep you company." After saying these words, Fang Yu felt a bit awkward, so he continued, "She's quite nosy isn't she? She can't even handle her own matters."

"I think she misunderstood. She probably thought I treated her as a friend," Huo Jingjing laughed bitterly.

"Didn't you treat her as a friend?" Fang Yu turned around and sat down on the sofa. He rested his elbows on the arms of the sofa and turned to look at Huo Jingjing, "I spent a day with Tangning. It was during the fight for resources with Star King. Did you know? On the runway, she's so much better than Qin Yu. She was born to be a model."

"However, during the selection process, she was faced with various obstacles. While waiting for the results, ifit had been you, you would haveturned and left Milan because of your pride. Even I was prepared to suggest she give up. Instead, she asked me for the client's phone number."

"She personally told them, if she couldn't be their spokesperson she would feel great regret. I'm not sure how moved they were by these words, but at least, if it was me, I would definitely give her a chance."

Huo Jingjing listened quietly as Fang Yu recalled everything that happened on the runway and everything that happened to Tangning. Admittedly, in this short 1-2 minute period, she had completely forgotten about her pain. Her mind was occupied with imagining how things would have been like if she was the one that went to Italy.

Fang Yu analyzed her expression and smiled, "In all honesty, you are still deeply in love with your career, aren't you? It's not like you can't live without being in a relationship."

Huo Jingjing lifted a bottle of wine and continuously emptied the contents into her mouth. She did not admit to what Fang Yu said, nor did she deny it.

"Tangning said, your silence condones that man to continue hurting people around you: you, your parents, your friends, Hai Rui and Tangning. If you want to suffer on your own, then go ahead. But, have you thought about the people that care about you? How many years have Hai Rui supported you? Now they are being humiliated by Star King, where is your conscience?"

After hearing this, Huo Jingjing's gaze finally revealed a trace of emotion.

"Right now, everyone is rumoring that you are in this predicament because you were jinxed by Tangning. Some of your fans have even started attacking Tangning. What has she done wrong? Why should she deal with your aftermath?"

"Huo Jingjing, you shouldn't just blatantly accept how you are being treated, men can also show affection. How badly does your man hate you, for him to be violent towards you for so many years? The worst thing is, you did nothing wrong at all."

Hearing these words, Huo Jingjing suddenly burst into tears. The person that was being betrayed, was her; the person being hurt, was her; and right now, the person being destroyed, was also her.
