My Beautiful Love Chapter 396
Advertisement
Lin Lihua gave her a sideways glance. Did Wan Jia think that her childhood life still made her feel sad? She had long forgotten about those incidences. Even if she was reminded of them once in a while, she didn't feel bad about it.
"It's time to sleep. My beauty has to be maintained by a good rest or else Henry may not want me anymore. Wait, that's wrong. Even if I became incredibly ugly with horendous looks, Henry would still think I'm the world's prettiest goddess."
Wan Jia was speechless. You didn't have to stuff me with your display off affection, did you?
...
The next morning, Lin Lihua had already left the bed when Wan Jia woke up.
Her beautiful face revealed a pretty infectious smile. Did she just spend the night in her real home, and in her sister's room at that? While she knew that there was a slim chance that Lin Zhou was not her father, she didn't care about it. Home was where her mother was; and Xia Rou was so loving that Wan Jia couldn't demand anything else from the Lin family. She didn't mind Lin Zhou anymore. As long as he didn't make it obvious that he didn't actually like her, she would be comfortable.
Getting out of bed, she freshened up. There was a cute white dress on the dresser which was not in Lin Lihua's style. It was obviously meant for her. She held it up and giggled happily. Such a unique design, she wondered which fashion studio it was from.
When she wore it, it looked like it was meant specifically for her. Was it her ability to look beautiful in anything she wore?
She went downstairs when she was done.
In the living room, Xia Rou and Lin Lihua were discussing something. The often silent Lin Zhou was also part of the discussion.

When she saw them, she thought they looked worried.
"Mom, dad, sis, did something happen?"
Xia Rou gave a look to her husband and elder daughter.
Lin Lihua didn't follow her mother's unspoken instruction. "She will find out sooner or later, mom." She then took Wan Jia's hand and made her sit. "Have you checked the news this morning?"
Wan Jia shook her head stiffly. "No, what happened?"
Without waiting for Lin Lihua to answer her, she took her phone and made a search.
From Lin Lihua's tone, the news had to be either about the Lu family or Lu Enterprises.
Actually, she didn't have to use up her brain. The hottest search was about Lu Enterprises and it had a very eye catching headline.
Wan Jia's phone slipped from her hand and fell to the floor, its screen breaking beyond recognition.
She had spoken to Lu Aotian the night before, and he expected something close to this to happen within a few days, but wasn't this too soon? Why was the orchestrator so fast?
Xia Rou held Wan Jia's hand. "Don't think too much about it. I'm sure my son-in-law will be able to clear those malicious rumors."
Wan Jia stole a glance at her broken phone, the screen was still lit up.
In a glaring font, the headlines read, [Lu Enterprises murders its shareholder and pushes its family member to suicide]

"Mom's right. Little Wan, cheer up and have breakfast. Big sister specifically baked your favorite cookies.
However, Wan Jia was no longer in the mood to eat.

Xia Rou, of course realized this. "You should have told her later. Do you see the result of telling her too early? My Little Wan doesn't want to eat anymore."
"Mom, her mind wouldn't be at ease, knowing that something was happening and no one is willing to tell her."
Wan Jia took a deep breath. "Sis, can I borrow your phone? I'll give Aotian a call." Her phone was too broken to be used.
Lin Lihua wordlessly passed over her phone. Wan Jia took it and walked out.
The call was connected after a few rings, before she heard Lu Aotian's voice. "Let me guess. Someone was so shocked that she broke her own phone and had to borrow her sister's to ring me."
"Am I an open book to you?"
"It's not that hard to guess what's happening with my wife."
Wan Jia's heart raced as she thought of how exactly to tell him. "Oh...from your tone, you sound like you have already read the news."
Before he could answer her, Lu Shaoting's voice came from the background, reporting something to him.
Lu Aotian had to go. "Honey, I have to go. Don't go to the company today and take bodyguards with you if you have to go anywhere. If you don't have to go, remain in the house until I clear this matter."
Wan Jia sighed. He had already found out. She wanted to offer her help but he would probably reject it, so she made a sound of agreement.
"Pass the same message to Su Ling and send more bodyguards to protect her." He meant that Su Ling should also not go out unaccompanied. He was saying it in case Lu Shaoting had not spoken to Su Ling this morning.
After making sure that his wife and sister-in-law would be fine and stay out of danger, he hung up.
Wan Jia was left thinking, it was really not going to be easy to handle this matter from another country. She really wanted to help them. But if she did and something went wrong, her husband and brother-in-law would have one more thing to worry about.
For this matter, Lu Aotian couldn't simply have the media pull down those claims. Well, he could, but it would blow up the matter and make it seem like silent admission.

A Girl and Her Food
When a lost girl wakes up without a name, she quickly finds herself alone in a way that people around her can’t fix. Without a real plan and desperate to find what’s wrong with her, she thrashes and bites to stay alive. But human beings are weak things, that band together for strength, no matter who we are. Now if only she could work up the courage to ask one question... It’s normal to get stronger when you drink the blood of monsters. Right? Things to expect: - A powerful but kinda neurotic and emotional protagonist, with some degree of weak to strong. Or maybe strong to stronger, honestly. She's pretty rational and practical about things but won't always make the best decisions, so be warned if you super-dislike characters doing dumb stuff for emotional reasons sometimes. - Lots of dialogue and characterization, especially as we get more into it. It's focused on a single POV, but there might be some sections of other POVs later on, I'm not sure right now. - Magic is on the softer side, but I'll try to keep things fleshed out enough to avoid any obvious "well-established magic could have seemingly instantly solved this problem" moments. - I didn't add the mystery tag because I feel like it implies that this is a detective novel or something, but the story is absolutely incredibly opaque at times. So you'll have the most fun if you go into it trying to puzzle out the nature of events before they're explicitly explained!😇 - Also, I added the genre for completion, but it's gonna take a while to get to the romance. Please wait warmly and have some tea. Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge!
