Chapter 77.2 – Extra: Wife-Chasing Crematorium (Part 2)

— STATUS: Unedited —

　　Without a second thought, Huo Rongshen watched her with an intent gaze. “Why would you not have a clue about this? Did you not mention yesterday that you have gained knowledge of the comic storyline? Since the female lead is a character of such significance, I’m sure she must play a considerable role in the comic.”

　　Unsure of how to respond to him, Jiang Dai could only give vague answers.

　　As a matter of fact, Huo Rongshen began to suspect something last night. Yet, Jiang Dai’s reactions had only confirmed his conjecture.

　　With that in mind, he continued to speculate, “Since this character has yet to make their appearance, it is highly likely that this person is merely fictitious and does exist in this world. So won’t you have to admit that you’ve been trying to deceive me for two whole years, Little Darling?” 

　　Jiang Dai could not help but grumble under her breath, “…… Who told you she has yet to appear?”

　　Grasping the main point, Huo Rongshen favored her with a hard stare and pressed on until he attained some answers. “She has appeared? Who could it be? It can’t be Qi Yao, right? As I’ve said before, I’m not interested in her. Haven’t I already made my feelings known multiple times? Ever since I kicked up a storm at the Qi family’s residence and humiliated Senior Officer Qi, she has finally exercised restraint and did not make an appearance in a long while.”

　　Jiang Dai confirmed insipidly, “It’s not Qi Yao.”

　　Huo Rongshen kept a straight face with effort as he forced a single word out between clenched teeth. “Oh.”

　　Fortunately, there was no traffic congestion on the road today. At the swift speed they were traveling, they soon arrived at Bao Li Building.

　　Since Jiang Dai was unwilling to continue this topic with him, she took a glimpse at her watch, eager to alight from the car.

　　Noticing her small action, Huo Rongshen took her hand. “This is something I’d like to make sense of, so don’t even think about running away. Given that I am the male lead, I have already taken the blame for two years. That is why you should at least tell me who the other main lead is. Don’t try and charm your way out of answering my question.”

　　He was simply beyond Jiang Dai’s control. When this man’s stubbornness kicked in, he would give an obstinate and headstrong ox a run for its money.

　　“I’ve no idea, so stop asking already.”

　　Not believing a single word she uttered, Huo Rongshen insisted, “Impossible.”

　　At this juncture, Jiang Dai had begun making up a story. Since it was impossible for him to verify the accuracy, she would do whatever it took to prevaricate. Otherwise, she had no clue how to face Sheng Wanwan.

　　“How is it not possible? I’ve only gotten to know the storyline from my dream, but not once had I seen the female lead’s face.”

　　With that, Huo Rongshen fell silent for half a second. Just when Jiang Dai thought her attempt was about to bear fruit……

　　His countenance darkened as he spoke sternly, “You are lying to me. Don’t you know you are not a good liar? You always look shifty-eyed and will never meet my eyes whenever you lie. C’mon, this isn’t fair to me, Little Darling.”

　　The last thing she needed right now was to be faced with that aggrieved gaze of his.

　　Taking a deep breath, she shared, “I didn’t mean to lie to you. Since I’ve revealed everything to you, I have never thought to keep anything from you. But it’s just that…… this matter is rather absurd and also involves others. Right now, I don’t wish to treat anyone unjustly and disrupt their normal daily lifestyle. That’s why give me some time to think about it.”

　　Before the sound of her voice could fade, the car just happened to be parked at the main entrance of the Bao Li Building.

　　Since Jiang Dai was willing to tell him about this matter, that would imply that their relationship had improved drastically. With that in mind, Huo Rongshen regained composure and strove to keep himself in check.

　　He could not afford to piss Jiang Dai off again. 

　　Only then did Huo Rongshen finally acquiesce to her request. “Alright, I’ll give you some time. I just felt that this matter is closely related to us and didn’t mean anything by it. Should there be any changes, we will have to face them together. So you can’t push me away again.”

　　Instead of answering, Jiang Dai alighted the car hastily after instructing the chauffeur to send him to the Huo Clan Building. 

……

　　At this juncture, Jiang Dai’s mind was whirling with numerous thoughts, of which she was considering whether to give Sheng Wanwan up.

　　The main issues were that she had grown far too close to Sheng Wanwan in these two years, and this individual did not exude the slightest sliver of aura a female lead of an X-rated comic should have.

　　Should there be something wrong with the comic, revealing Sheng Wanwan’s true identity would have dealt severe damage to a girl like her. If she were to learn what sort of character she was in the comic, she would have also found it revolting.

　　As she lowered her head, Jiang Dai found it difficult to extricate herself from the intensity of her racing thoughts. That was why it took her a while to recover from her surprise when a middle-aged man rushed towards her with red roses in his hand.

　　Tiny droplets of sweat dotted his forehead as his face flamed crimson with excitement. “Goddess Jiang Dai! I love you, my Goddess! Please marry me! You are the only woman I will ever love in this lifetime, so please, I beg of you! Marry me, and you will surely lead a happy life!”

　　On seeing this spectacle, question marks surrounded Jiang Dai’s head.

　　All in all, Jiang Dai was not a celebrity, and it had been ages since she had appeared on the screen.

　　Even though she had garnered countless Weibo fans and an incredibly loyal fanbase, they seemed to comprise primarily young girls.

　　So who knows whether this lunatic was an ordinary fanatic male fan? At the end of the day, this was certainly something she had faced for the first time……

　　Upon seeing this, the security thankfully reacted in the nick of time and rushed to protect Jiang Dai with all their might.

　　“Please be careful, President Jiang. We’ll be escorting you into the building.”

　　Despite that, the middle-aged man simply refused to give up and got down heavily on one knee. Much to everyone’s astonishment, he threw himself forward and hugged Jiang Dai’s leg. Whipping out a ring box with his other hand, he took out a diamond ring that no one could tell the authenticity of and attempted to put it on Jiang Dai’s finger.

　　“Why don’t you marry me? I was serious when I said I’d never loved a woman so fervently! I know you’ve always loved me, Goddess! I’ll always make you happy, so accept my proposal!!!!”

　　Enduring the stomach-churning dread and discomfort, Jiang Dai remained silent and took several steps back. Only then was she finally able to break free from this fanatic fan.

　　After the security subdued him, one of the guards took charge of escorting Jiang Dai.

　　Without a moment’s delay, they began distancing themselves from the captive man. Perhaps the security had let their guards down, or the towering big-sized man had struggled so violently that they could no longer restrain him.

　　On his hands and knees, he somehow managed to escape from the security’s grasp and rushed forward wildly.

　　With a cold sense of dread, the guards hastened to run forward and sought to stop him.

　　Yet, the crazed fan seemed to have changed into a different person. The look of infatuation and euphoria on his face morphed into ferocity and viciousness. Before anyone could make a move, he roared sternly, “B*tch! Jiang Dai, you are a fickle b*tch! You’ve screwed around with me, yet you refuse to take responsibility! To think you still go about seducing other guys! You d*mn b*tch! I’ll destroy that alluring face of yours!”
