CHAPTER 187: CHAPTER 187: DESTROY WHAT YOU CAN’T HAVE

Chang Wan cried and cried.

She was usually so proud and delicate, caring deeply about her reputation.

Now look what happened.

Although the related events were kept confidential by both the production crew and the police station, some rumors would inevitably spread, and her reputation in this circle was already ruined.

Chang Wan felt terribly distressed.

Qin Rui knew what was on her daughter’s mind.

She also couldn’t sleep these past two days, knowing that the man involved turned out to be a bona fide lunatic; facing such a situation, even seeking retribution was impossible.

Qin Rui sighed and asked her, "By the way, what exactly is going on between you and that Lu Feng? Your dad went to Normal College yesterday to inquire about him. The young man’s performance and grades at school are quite commendable, with the only shortcoming being his ordinary family background, and he’s not from around here.

But your dad also said that if he has the ability and you like him, we can arrange a job for him here, to stay and observe for a while."

On the day of the incident, Lu Feng was the first to rush in and save her. He then closed the door to the dressing room, preventing others from entering, preserving Chang Wan’s dignity to the greatest extent possible.

Later, as Qin Rui was taking her daughter back, he stayed by their side. Qin Rui noticed something was off, told him to leave, but he didn’t listen. He even stood guard outside the Military and Political Institute all night, just to know her daughter’s condition.

Seeing such effort, one doesn’t need to be told what it means.

Chang Ziliang quickly found out about Lu Feng’s situation.

Unexpectedly, it turned out the guy was okay.

Born into an ordinary worker’s family, but through his own hard work, he had become a somewhat famous poet.

With Chang Wan’s current ruined reputation, marrying high was out of the question, and finding someone casually might lead to resentment over this matter, being unfair to their daughter.

With this in mind, Lu Feng’s circumstances suddenly seemed suitable.

Ordinary family background, easy to control, the young man is quite infatuated, capable, and a material worth cultivating, likely genuinely caring for their daughter.

If they could arrange for Lu Feng to work nearby, it would be akin to recruiting a half-live-in son-in-law, minimizing interaction with the Lu Family and ensuring their daughter lives under their protection without fear of being wronged.

Previously, Chang Wan didn’t make her relationship with Lu Feng public, thinking her family wouldn’t approve.

But now the Chang family had no objections, yet Chang Wan said, "Mom, stop talking about that, I don’t like him."

The family’s disapproval was only one aspect; the main thing was that Chang Wan didn’t think much of him.

Someone like him, she could fool around with, but staking her lifetime on him, she felt unwilling.

Moreover, after the incident, Chang Wan somehow suspected Lu Feng might be involved.

Before, she didn’t think in that direction since they were partners.

But now, seeing that her family had agreed, she was more cautious.

Could this all be a ruse by Lu Feng to divert attention, aiming to make their relationship public, and remain here?

Thinking of this possibility sent chills down Chang Wan’s spine.

Qin Rui sighed, wanting to persuade her daughter further, but coincidentally Lu Feng arrived, carrying a bag of things, knocking on the door outside.

The night of the incident, Qin Rui had a harsh demeanor towards everyone, mistaking Lu Feng for a crew member, scolding him extensively.

Now, knowing about the connection between him and her daughter, and having learned about his excellent academic record, her attitude softened significantly. She welcomed him with a smile, seated him, and left with a thermos, giving the young couple some space.

The hospital room door was soon shut.

Lu Feng took out an apple, intending to peel it for Chang Wan.

But Chang Wan looked at him coldly, "Lu Feng, was it you who did something the night before last?"

Lu Feng stayed silent, quietly sitting on a chair peeling the apple.

Chang Wan got angry, thinking of her ruined reputation, and her family beginning to abandon her, even suggesting she marry Lu Feng, inflamed her inner anger. She reached out and slapped Lu Feng, "I asked you a question? Are you mute?"

While her luck plummeted, he seemed to be taking advantage.

Lu Feng’s face was knocked sideways, indicating Chang Wan didn’t hold back, using force.

He adjusted his knocked askew glasses, put down the apple and fruit knife, looked into Chang Wan’s angry eyes, and sighed, "It was my fault for not managing things properly, allowing that lunatic to run around inside and find the wrong place. Go ahead and hit me, even killing me is fine."

Saying this, Lu Feng even leaned his face toward Chang Wan.

Chang Wan did hit him again, slapping him several times before she started crying while wiping her tears.

Lu Feng rubbed his heated cheek, pulling Chang Wan into his arms.

Chang Wan initially struggled, but gradually let it be.

Lu Feng: "Xiao Wan, for this lifetime, just let me pull the plow for you. If you want me to stay, I’ll stay. If you want me to leave, it’s fine too. Since the moment I liked you, I never expected anything in return from this relationship.

I just love you, nothing else matters."

Lu Feng was truly a master in the art of love. Words like these, most people couldn’t resist, and Chang Wan was no different.

Chang Wan asked him, "So you mean this whole thing was an accident?"

Lu Feng: "I don’t know. I’m just puzzled why all the chairs in the lounge were smeared with glue. Who do you think did it?"

This was something the production team investigated too, but couldn’t find the culprit.

The glue on Tian Xiang’s chair was undoubtedly Chang Wan’s doing, aiming to lure her into the dressing room to change clothes.

Tian Xiang’s scene was the first night scene, and she left first.

Following their plan, Lu Feng would distract the security to let the man obsessed with Tian Xiang in, misleading him to believe he’s a crew member, so that man knows which dressing room was Tian Xiang’s, then letting him act freely thereafter.

Tian Xiang was to be dealt with by Chang Wan, who would find a way to send her to the dressing room early.

This thing was not complex, just a little tweak was needed to achieve the desired effect, without bringing trouble upon themselves.

Chang Wan didn’t foresee that the result would backfire on herself.

At that time, all chairs had glue on them, Chang Wan didn’t think deeply, felt disgusted and just wanted to quickly change her clothes.

She did think of the potential danger then, but since there was some distance between the two dressing rooms, she couldn’t imagine that man would wander over to her side.

Chang Wan: "I don’t know, the glue was only applied to her chair by me."

Lu Feng: "Was Tian Xiang the first to enter the lounge?"

Chang Wan was shocked, looking up at Lu Feng, "Are you saying she applied all the glue?"

Lu Feng nodded, "I think she noticed early on the glue on her chair and to escalate things, she applied glue to all chairs, leading to subsequent events."

Lu Feng’s guess was almost spot on.

Tian Xiang, truly the smart one he admired!

Yet, what’s the use of admiration, for the person he couldn’t have, needed to be destroyed, taking advantage of this opportunity to make them enemies, saving her from constantly fearing and not daring to act.
