“Seeing that they all remained silent, Ye Wanwan had no choice but to call someone out, ‘Beidou, you speak.’
Beidou, reluctantly, stepped forward with a mournful face, scratching his head and pondering for a while. Finally, he pointed at the green grass beneath Ye Wanwan’s feet, ‘Um… Feng Jie, what do you see under your feet?’
Ye Wanwan looked puzzled, ‘Under my feet… grass?’
Beidou then pointed to some nearby leaves, ‘Feng Jie, take a look at the color of these leaves. Isn’t it quite… quite… quite…’
Ye Wanwan replied, ‘Green…?’
Beidou nodded vigorously, ‘Yes, yes, yes! This grass, these leaves! So green! Very lush!’
Ye Wanwan’s forehead twitched, and she kicked at him, saying, ‘Speak plainly!’
Beidou suddenly exclaimed, ‘Feng Jie! You’ve been greened!’
Ye Wanwan asked, ‘…’
After three seconds of silence, Ye Wanwan looked at Beidou with a puzzled expression, as if she couldn’t understand his meaning, ‘What did you say?’
At this moment, Fu Mingxi cautiously approached and handed over a phone, ‘Guild Leader, please have a look yourself!’
Ye Wanwan quickly opened it, glanced at it, and saw the headline of a prominent news article along with the accompanying image.
Beidou, Fu Mingxi, and the others watched anxiously as Ye Wanwan reacted and took a step back involuntarily.
Then Ye Wanwan continued to read the contents of the news, immediately recalling that during the time mentioned in the news, she had called Si Yehan…
At that time, Si Yehan had clearly said that the woman at the dinner was nearly forty…
But now, with a picture as evidence, it meant that Si Yehan had deliberately hidden something from her…
Ye Wanwan raised her hand abruptly—
“Ah ah ah! Feng Jie, stay calm!” Beidou exclaimed in fright.
Ye Wanwan gave him a sidelong glance and tossed the phone into his hands, saying, ‘Why are you making such a fuss? It’s just gossip news!’
Beidou weakly replied, ‘Feng Jie, you’re not angry…?’
Fu Mingxi asked, ‘Guild Leader, are you perhaps overlooking something?’
Ye Wanwan leaned against a large tree behind her, lightly touched the tree trunk, and said casually, ‘What’s there to be angry about? This is obviously a groundless rumor, deliberately seeking attention and sensationalism!’
The Third Elder and the Grand Elder exchanged glances, evidently not expecting their Guild Leader to be so composed.
‘The Guild Leader is truly wise! Well said!’ The Third Elder immediately praised.
The Grand Elder also wore a satisfied expression and said, ‘Our Guild Leader is increasingly showing the demeanor of a true leader!’
However, Fu Mingxi couldn’t believe it and said, ‘But Guild Leader, the photo has been published! Why would Vice President Qin take his daughter to a simple dinner, and they were the only three there? This is clearly the pattern of meeting the parents! Guild Leader, are you really not bothered at all?’
Ye Wanwan chuckled and displayed the composure of a legitimate wife, ‘Men often encounter such situations when they socialize outside. What’s there to be bothered about? Do you all think that your Guild Leader, I, am the type of person who would make a huge fuss over trivial matters?’
Fu Mingxi: ‘…’
Beidou: ‘…’
Grand Elder: ‘…’
Third Elder: ‘…’
Isn’t she, though?
Ye Wanwan waved her hand, ‘Alright, disperse. It’s just a gossip rumor. I’m not so fond of getting jealous over nothing!’
Beidou and the others confirmed multiple times that Ye Wanwan really had no intention of causing trouble before finally letting go of their worries.
Only Seven Star shifted his position slightly and glanced at the tree trunk that his Guild Leader had just touched with her hand.
On the side of the tree trunk, there were five holes forcefully punctured by five fingers…
Seven Star: ‘…'”
