Chapter 528: Chapter 526 I Can Prove It_1

Under the watchful eyes of Xia Ningxing and another, the elder continued to fume:

"They actually say I don’t like Xingxing, my granddaughter-in-law?"

"To hell with it, I wish I could cherish her in the palm of my hand, okay?"

Caught off guard, Tao Tao and Xia Ningxing stared blankly, still clueless as to what had happened.

"No, I have to contact someone to clear up these absurd rumors! I, the old man, must smash their faces to pieces!" As he spoke, the elder took out his cellphone and walked to the side to make a call.

Tao Tao looked on in bewilderment at the suddenly angry elder and wondered, "What on earth happened to Grandpa?"

"There must be some negative news about me online." Xia Ningxing had already gathered a rough idea of what had transpired from his words and got up to check the computer for further confirmation.

And sure enough.

The entire page was filled with various news and rumors about her, and the number of people fabricating stories kept growing.

Things like waiting for Xia Ningxing’s divorce, Xia Ningxing using dirty tricks to marry into the super-wealthy Lu Family, Xia Ningxing having a child with no sense of shame, Xia Ningxing, the little bitch, should drop dead, and so on...

"Are these people sick in the head or what, spouting nonsense without knowing the truth! It’s utterly disgusting!" Now it wasn’t just the elder who was angry, Tao Tao was livid too, as if the person being slandered was her.

Her cheeks flushed with anger, and her almond-shaped eyes widened furiously.

"How could Grandpa not like Xiaxia, Grandpa clearly adores Xiaxia the most!"

"And Xiaxia using tricks to marry into the Lu Family! That’s just laughable, it is the Lu Family who can’t wait for Xiaxia to marry in!"

At that moment, Tao Tao wished she could rush to the home of everyone behind those screens and spit in their faces as she screamed at them.

In contrast, Xia Ningxing appeared calm, as if the rumors had nothing to do with her.

Tao Tao had intended to comfort her, but to her surprise, she was so serene.

She couldn’t help but ask, "Xiaxia, how can you be so composed!"

If she were berated like that, she would be heartbroken.

Xia Ningxing sipped her tea, her stunning face exuding tranquility: "Because those rumors are false, aren’t they? If they’re false, they’ll burst with a single poke. Why should I be anxious?"

"That’s true."

Tao Tao nodded in agreement, it made sense.

Only when the rumors are true does one feel ashamed and angry, so why be upset over falsehoods!

Having realized this, Tao Tao was no longer angry.

After Sir Lu finished his phone call, Xia Ningxing reassured him, "Don’t worry, Grandpa, it’s just a bit of gossip, no need to be upset..."

Sir Lu’s face broke into a smile as he replied, "Don’t worry, Xingxing, Grandpa is not angry anymore. Just wait and see how I slap those people’s faces!"

Xia Ningxing was taken aback, having no idea what Sir Lu was planning to do.

Soon enough.

Xia Ningxing saw a crew from a famous domestic interview program arrive at the Lu Family residence.

It turned out that Sir Lu was preparing to clear the rumors this way.

Xia Ningxing understood then.

As soon as the program crew walked into the courtyard, they witnessed a harmonious scene between grandparent and grandchildren.

There was Sir Lu, sitting in the living room sipping tea, with Xia Ningxing on his left and Tao Tao on his right.

Xiaxia was brewing tea, her ethereal beauty enveloped in curling tendrils of steam, resembling a graceful sprite in the woods.

She occasionally refilled Sir Lu’s tea.

Sir Lu had a smile that was all warmth and friendliness, clearly very fond of Xia Ningxing, which was nothing like the unsavoriness rumored online.

"Sir Lu!"

The interview program staff all called out with great respect.

"Everyone has arrived, please take a seat." Sir Lu lifted his eyelids slightly and then instructed Nanny Wu to bring tea and pastries for the guests.

As nobility from the Capital City, even the refreshments the Lu Family provided were of the finest quality.

The pastries were exquisite imperial treats.

The tea was premium Longjing with dew collected at dawn used to brew it.

The eyes of the film crew lit up at the sight.

"Thank you, Sir Lu." During the conversation, the program staff came in one after another.

The cameramen hoisted their equipment, aiming at Sir Lu and the others.

Upon seeing the cameramen’s OK gesture, the host immediately asked Sir Lu with a smile, "Sir Lu, are we ready to go live?"

Sir Lu did not answer the other party’s question, but instead turned to Xia: "Xingxing, are we ready?"

Upon seeing this, the host and others were taken aback.

Although they were well aware that Sir Lu had personally contacted the program to clear up the rumors, they never expected Sir Lu to be so deferential to Xia, even going so far as to ask for her opinion on even the smallest matter.

Xia Ningxing delicately refilled Sir Lu’s tea: "As long as Grandfather is ready, I can start at any time."

Although Sir Lu doted on her, she was not arrogant because of it; instead, her words were full of respect.

The host couldn’t help but admire internally, no wonder Sir Lu liked her so much, with such emotional intelligence, she would like her too!

"Let’s start now then." Only then did Sir Lu nod to the host.

The host cleared his throat and said, "Sir Lu, there are rumors online and in the newspapers that you don’t really like Miss Xia, but from what I see now, you get along quite well. If I didn’t know any better, I’d think you two were actually blood-related!"

"Of course!" Sir Lu first lifted his chin proudly, then scoffed disdainfully: "I don’t know where some nonsense people come from, spreading such baseless reports, wait until I blacklist them!"

Host: "..."

Wow, that’s quite the favoritism!

The audience in front of their TVs watching the live broadcast couldn’t help but burst into laughter—

"Hahaha! This old man is so tough! He’s the type I really like!"

"Those who have been insisting that Xia is a cast-off wife, now got a slap in their face!"

"That slap really made a resounding smack!"

"I always knew my Baby Xing couldn’t have done anything dirty!"

"Exactly! To a bunch of scoundrels who suspect others with their own petty minds, I spit on that!"

At this moment, Sir Lu added, "I must say, today’s paparazzi are truly unprofessional!"

"Was I angry at Xingxing? I was clearly angry at my good-for-nothing brother, yet it got twisted by a bunch of ignorant people!!"

"That’s right! I can attest to that! Ever since my niece joined the family, my older brother not only never got angry with her, he never even had a cross word with her once," the second grandfather suddenly piped up, grinning at the camera.

Xia Ningxing and others: "..."

This grandpa’s unexpected intrusion!

"Get lost! If it wasn’t for you, Xingxing would never have been slandered!" Sir Lu couldn’t help but lose his temper at the sight of him, glaring disapprovingly.

Looking sheepish, the second grandfather withdrew his head that had appeared in front of the camera, sat down on the sofa looking wronged, and picked up his teacup to take a sip to calm his nerves.
