Chapter 551: Chapter 551

On the other side, He Jinxia had her driver head to the hotel, telling Mrs. He that they would stay at the hotel first.

Several black minivans, filled with journalists determined not to give up until they unearthed some sensational news, followed the taxi.

He Jinxia looked at those cars, her expression becoming even more serious, hoping that the hotel security would be strong enough.

Soon, they arrived at the hotel entrance. It was unclear whether Sheng Yan had notified the hotel manager beforehand or it was for some other reason, but there were many security guards outside, all in uniform.

As soon as He Jinxia and Mrs. He got out, they quickly walked towards the hotel. A security guard stopped them to ask for their names. He Jinxia thought for a moment and gave her real name.

The guard’s expression changed, and he hurriedly said, "Please enter quickly. We’ll hold back the paparazzi for you!"

He Jinxia nodded at him and, pulling Mrs. He, immediately entered the hotel.

Once they were inside, the hotel manager, with a smile on his face, escorted them to their room.

Seeing this, even the usually oblivious He Jinxia realized that Sheng Yan must have called them in advance.

The elevator on the first floor just arrived as the paparazzi caught up, creating a noisy commotion outside. Turning her head, He Jinxia saw the guards standing at the hotel entrance, blocking the door tightly, not giving the paparazzi any chance to slip in.

Seeing this, both He Jinxia and Mrs. He couldn’t help but feel relieved.

With a "ding," just then, the elevator arrived, and everyone immediately entered, the doors closing after a short while.

Cut off from the paparazzi, He Jinxia and Mrs. He felt even more relaxed.

Having dealt with the most critical moment, Mrs. He also regained her composure. She glanced at the hotel manager, who was all smiles, then turned to look at Jinxia, a thoughtful look passing through her eyes.

The hotel manager was also sharp-perceptive, probably aware that they had just been chased by paparazzi and didn’t want to talk. He remained silent all the way, dutifully acting as their guide. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novel-fire.net

When they arrived at a luxurious presidential suite, the manager cheerfully said to them, "Rest assured, the paparazzi absolutely cannot get in here."

After saying this, he left.

As soon as the manager left, Mrs. He could no longer restrain herself and asked, "Jinxia, do you know the owner of this hotel? Why is the manager being so nice to us?"

He Jinxia shook her head, "I don’t know him, but Sheng Yan probably does. He also arranged this room for us."

Mentioning Sheng Yan, Mrs. He was not surprised. With Sheng Yan’s status and the Sheng Family’s success in business, it was not odd that he knew the hotel owner, and it made even more sense that the hotel treated them well; they were benefiting from Sheng Yan’s influence.

Rarely in a joking mood, Mrs. He quipped, "The wedding isn’t even set yet, and here I am, already enjoying the perks of a mother-in-law."

The previously contemplative face of He Jinxia broke at this, as she said quite shyly, "Mom, what are you talking about?!"

Mrs. He: "Alright, alright, I won’t say any more; otherwise, I don’t know how red your face could get."

He Jinxia stamped her foot, "Mom!"

Mrs. He smiled, put her hand to her mouth, and made a zipping gesture before saying, "You must be tired from all the fuss this morning, go and rest. When you wake up, we can think about what to eat, how’s that?"

He Jinxia nodded, naturally that was fine with her.

Mrs. He had just turned to leave when she suddenly thought of something and immediately turned back to ask:

"By the way, there were a lot of people around filming when I was arguing with He Hui, they didn’t post the video online, did they? And how did those paparazzi find out where we were, even following you during the festival?"

After arguing with He Hui, Mrs. He was quite agitated and hadn’t checked her phone, so she didn’t know that the video of the argument had not only been posted online, it had also hit the hot search list on W.

During the festival, many people were staying at home and passing time by browsing videos and news. They hadn’t expected anything interesting, but today, He Jinxia’s revelation was like stirring up a hornet’s nest and immediately sparked a nationwide debate.

It was indeed a festival blockbuster.

He Jinxia didn’t want her mother to worry, so she said, "Mom, a lot of entertainment news on the internet is fake, don’t worry. Even if they did post the video, I have ways to handle it.

You don’t need to worry about the paparazzi either. I’m used to it as a celebrity, trust me, it’s fine."

Mrs. He was about to ask more, but He Jinxia, fearing more questions would only increase her mother’s worries, quickly said, "You go rest inside first. I’ll call Brother Luo and tell him, so he can start handling it."

He Jinxia kept reassuring her that everything was fine, and Mrs. He was reassured and headed to the room.

As she was going in, He Jinxia called out to her mother, asking her to give her the phone to charge.

Mrs. He more or less knew that Jinxia was doing this to keep her from seeing upsetting news online, and she didn’t refuse her daughter’s kindness, handing over the phone.

Arguing that morning had drained her, leaving her with little energy to check online gossip, let alone engage in squabbles.

After settling Mrs. He, He Jinxia walked to the room window, pulled the curtains open slightly, and saw a large group of paparazzi surrounding the entrance of the hotel.

Even with security trying to drive them away, the paparazzi were reluctant to leave, and their numbers seemed to be growing.

He Jinxia had opened W on her phone in the car and saw that while some online supported her, others cursed her... Her news almost blanketed the sky, whipping up a storm of scandal.

As time passed, the accumulated discussions would only grow, and the incident would become even more explosive. He Jinxia took a deep breath; this was just the beginning.

Pulling the curtains closed, she picked up the phone and called Luo You.

The phone barely had time to ring before it was picked up. Luo You’s slightly hoarse, weary voice came through, "Jinxia, have you settled down over there?"

He Jinxia nodded, even though Luo You couldn’t see her.

She said, "Yeah, mom and I went to a hotel. The security here is good; they stopped the paparazzi."

Luo You said, "Good to know you’re safe, I’ll handle everything online, you don’t have to worry. Although the video has been leaked, He Hui’s reasons for insulting you aren’t justified, and so far, you’ve had very few negative comments. Many netizens are criticizing He Hui."

Remembering He Hui, He Jinxia’s eyes cooled as she replied in a light tone, "Our family has never wronged them, no matter what they say, I will definitely not apologize or give in."
