The Long-awaited Mr Han - Chapter 2151

Chapter 2151: This Matter Would Not Sound Nice No Matter Who It Happened to

“And previously, Xiaoya said that before the gala started, Xia Yixin went to look for her and still wanted to slander her to hint that it was Xiaoya who ruined her and Big Brother’s marriage back then, causing their divorce.”

Lu Man explained, “She was arrested for slander. When she goes to court in the future, the news will break sooner or later. It’s hard to say that she won’t seize the opportunity to mention this, so I just used the ‘informed netizen’ excuse to publicly reveal this and tie it in with the incident tonight, so that the first thing netizens think of is Xia Yixin slandering Xiaoya. In the future, even if Xia Yixin spouted nonsense to the reporters either in court or outside the court, we will have pre-empted this in advance, so her words would not have much negative impact.”

This move was killing many birds with one stone.

But Lu Man’s reminder also made Han Zhuoling realize something.

When he did not publicly announce the reason for his divorce back then, it was because his family wanted to protect him.

But now, it allowed Xia Yixin to seize this chance and make use of the public’s unawareness of the truth to slander Shi Xiaoya.

“When will it be appropriate for me to announce the truth behind my divorce?” Han Zhuoling suddenly asked.

Everyone was stunned.

Out of all the people there, actually, it was only Shi Nancang who did not know the exact reason.

Although he did hear some guesses from other people, it was not confirmed by the person himself.

Even afterward, when Han Zhuoling had already become Shi Xiaoya’s boyfriend and gotten more or less familiar with the Shis, he still felt embarrassed to ask him about this.

And Shi Xiaoya indeed knew, but it was because the first time she saw him, at the film festival, she accidentally heard him speaking on the phone and interpreted the situation based on what he said.

Han Zhuoling had not told her in detail formally before.

She did not ask either.

Anyway, it was all in the past. Shi Xiaoya felt that there was no point for her to raise the matter.

She could not change what happened in the past, so bringing it up would just be for the sake of remembrance.

But that was not some good memory anyway.

Shi Xiaoya did not want to make Han Zhuoling feel uncomfortable.

A person so outstanding had been tainted by Xia Yixin, who humiliated him so much.

All the more Shi Xiaoya did not want to bring it up.

Hence, the only people present who really knew what the truth was were actually only Han Zhuoli and Lu Man.

Lu Man turned to look at Han Zhuoli. Han Zhuoli asked Han Zhuoling, “Brother, you thought it through already? This matter… This matter wouldn’t sound nice no matter who it happened to.”

His own wife cheated on him and gave birth to someone else’s child, and she even wanted the child to take his surname.

He had been deceived for so long.

If word of this matter went out, to be honest, it was really not something glamorous for a man.

It would be a very big blow to a man’s pride.

Han Zhuoling did not seem to hesitate at all and said, “I thought it through. Rather than let people guess around, I might as well say it directly and just kill all the thoughts in Xia Yixin’s mind.”

If this was really publicly announced, given Han Zhuoling’s popularity on top of Xia Yixin’s present publicly hated status, Xia Yixin would be scolded by the whole Internet.

Shi Xiaoya clutched his elbow and said, “You don’t have to do this.”

Han Zhuoling really did not mind. “It’s fine. I might as well say it now, lest Xia Yixin went around spouting rubbish again. Ever since our divorce, she has been going around spouting nonsense to other people, claiming how innocent she is. I couldn’t be bothered with her all this time because I didn’t want to waste time on her, and I did not want to let her use this chance to continue pestering me.

“But now that she provoked you, I can’t not care,” Han Zhuoling said. “I don’t think saying it out loud is anything embarrassing. When I was single previously, perhaps I might still have cared more about my family’s and my own reputation. But now that I have you, admitting it is nothing embarrassing. Everyone knows that the two of us are doing well, and we won’t mind what happened in the past.”
