Chapter 40



But a simple gesture from her brother-in-law had instantly dissipated the terror and unease in her heart.

She could sense the comfort and concern from her brother-in-law.

Even if the sky fell down on her, she would not be afraid.

Tong Lu straightened up in her chair and calmly faced the interrogation from the diplomats from both nations. During the two hours of negotiation and interrogation, her hand was clutched in his the whole time. In the end, once both parties ended their discussion, he let go of her hand and there was no further interaction between the two of them.

Still, she could not help but feel warmth in her heart and grew stronger.

But when the pressure from his clutch disappeared, she felt slightly dejected for some unknown reason.

Leng Yejin could not help but take another look at her with his penetrating gaze. Embarrassed, Tong Lu felt her cheeks heat up and she gave a bright smile. “I’m alright. Don’t worry about me.”

“Have I said that I am worried about you?” Leng Yejin said flatly.

Tong Lu was at a loss for words.

“You keep causing me trouble. Can’t you just stay out of trouble?” Leng Yejin’s voice was cold but also had a hint of warmth. Seeing her downcast eyes and pitiable demeanour, his voice softened a little as he said, “Stay here. Pray that Mr. Prime Minister will make it through soon.”

Tong Lu nodded with conflicted feelings tossing and turning inside her chest.

He ruffled her hair and pondered for a moment. “I’m leaving. Before the prime minister wakes up, you may have to put up with this a few more days.”

“No worries. I’ll wait.”

Tong Lu nodded again and watched the tall man leave with the delegates from the foreign affairs department.

She waited for two more days.

At the hospital, doctors were discussing and trying to come up with a treatment plan so that Mr. Prime Minister would regain consciousness as soon as possible.

Tong Lu stood before the window in the lounge and looked down from the building. People were still coming in and out of the building. The meeting was not cancelled because of this ‘serious accident’. However, the bad news had gotten out and reached the public. Public outrage exploded and started spreading like wildfire. The entire nation was condemning one woman.

“Oh my god, a female volunteer named Tong Lu seriously tried to seduce the British prime minister in the men’s bathroom. The horrified British prime minister had a heart attack and is currently hospitalized. What kind of shameless woman is she? Trying to use such a vile tactic to climb to the top!”

“How shameless. She is the greatest sinner of this nation. If something happens to the British prime minister, is there going to be a war between the two nations? We’re done for. The time of peace is over!”

“Why doesn’t this sl*t kill herself? How was this whore selected to be a volunteer?”

More criticism followed.

When Tong Juan saw the news, she immediately called her parents on the phone. She was incredibly anxious. “Father, have you heard? Older sister was arrested for sexually assaulting the British prime minister. Will it affect us? Should we disown her right now? But is it too late to cut her off now? What do we do? She’s such a troublemaker. Never mind your career as a public official, now the whole family is going to be in trouble!”

Mr. Tong nearly fainted. His older daughter had always worried him. Now she seriously caused such catastrophic trouble!

Tong Lu’s stepmother held Mr. Tong when he stumbled. A supposedly-elegant lady like her began spewing profanity about Tong Lu. The whole family gathered to come up with a solution to protect themselves. Mr. Tong wrote a post on Weibo, expressing his regret for not being a responsible parent. His daughter had done something like this. He would let the country decide what to do with her. His rant was explosive, stating clearly that he would willingly sacrifice his daughter because it was the right thing to do.

“Why are parents these days so heartless?” Long Yan sat next to Leng Yejin in a relaxed manner, eating fruit while scrolling on his phone. “This man doesn’t seem to love his daughter at all. Just because of a rumor, he immediately wrote a post and condemned his daughter, painting her as some kind of sinner.”
