The news spread quickly in the financial circle. It had only been two hours since Lu Nuannuan ran out of the Lu family's villa with her face covered. The news of Yu Yang's high-profile dissolution of the engagement and his public declaration of love for Lu Nuannuan had already spread throughout the city.
Lu Han could only try his best to ask his good friend to control the speed of the spread of public opinion and reduce the damage.
As the person involved, Lu Qi's mood was not affected at all.
She had designed a boxing style that was suitable for her current body according to the training method in her previous life, and her physical condition and complexion had improved significantly.
In the early morning, the atmosphere in the Lu family's villa was still a little solemn.
In the living room, Xie Jiao was browsing the news about Lu Qi. Seeing Lu Qi walking toward her, Xie Jiao put away her phone in a slightly flustered manner and held her hand in an unnatural tone, "Qiqi, don't worry about what the people outside are saying! Your father and I know that you've been wronged."
Lu Han's face was clouded with worry. He seemed to have aged a few years overnight, and his body was hunched over.
Lu Qi looked up and met his worried eyes. She frowned in surprise.
Lu Han immediately put on a forced smile and comforted her. "Qiqi, don't worry. We will definitely get justice for you!"
Yu Yang was really not worth their attention. Lu Qi frowned and wanted to explain, but she was interrupted by the butler who rushed in.
The butler panted and pointed at the courtyard. He took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Lu, please go out and take a look!"
Lu Han's expression was anxious and solemn. He thought that the Yu family was looking for trouble and walked toward the courtyard angrily.
When he saw the scene in front of him clearly, his footsteps were suspended in mid-air. He was so shocked that he could not move.
Lu Qi followed after him and walked to the courtyard. Mo Chen's tall and straight figure stood outside the door. With a humble and polite attitude, he nodded at Lu Han. Then, he ordered his assistant to take out the gifts from the trunk one by one, filling the empty space in the courtyard with gifts.
Mo Chen strode in front of Lu Han. His eyes swept past Lu Qi. When he saw her rosy complexion, he was a little surprised. However, he quickly restrained his emotions and said in a clear voice, "Mr. Lu, these are some gifts for Lu Qi. Consider it a small token of my appreciation."
"As for the Mo family's betrothal gifts, they will be given at our engagement ceremony. I hope you don't misunderstand."
Lu Han had been in business for many years and boasted that he had seen a lot. However, at this moment, he was still stunned by Mo Chen's actions.
The Lu family's villa was located in a wealthy area, and the neighbors were all good friends of the aristocratic families of the conglomerate.
Mo Chen had created such a big commotion, so naturally, it attracted many of their neighbors' attention. They even secretly took photos and spread them on the internet...
Lu Qi guessed his intention and was a little touched.
Lu Qi saw the change in her parents' mood and knew that Mo Chen was deliberately trying to support her. She cleared her throat and broke the gloomy atmosphere in the courtyard. "Mr. Mo, since you're here, why don't you stay for lunch before you go back?"
Mo Chen nodded with a smile in his eyes and agreed readily. "Okay."
Lu Han and Xie Jiao looked at each other and hurriedly ordered the nanny to make preparations.
They silently observed Lu Qi and Mo Chen's interactions and compared Mo Chen and Yu Yang in their hearts. Finally, they smiled.
Perhaps, leaving Yu Yang was also a good decision for Lu Qi.
In the hall, Mo Chen accompanied Lu Han as a junior and they sat in front of the window to play chess while Lu Qi sat on the sofa and browsed through the real-time news in boredom.
"The young master of the Mo family mysteriously returned to the country not long ago. He made a high-profile visit to the Lu family to give out betrothal gifts. The engagement will be fulfilled soon!"
"There is news that Yu Yang knows that his identity is no match for Mo Chen. He wants to save his face that's why he cancelled the engagement in front of everyone!"
"Lu Han's beloved daughter, Lu Qi, is worth billions of dollars. Two powerful people in the financial circle are openly fighting over the engagement?!"
Lu Qi could not help but burst into laughter when she saw the tabloid news from the entertainment media. She was in a good mood.
She raised her eyes and looked in Mo Chen's direction. Such a large-scale news release had completely suppressed the news of Yu Yang expressing his love for Lu Nuan. The media's actions were so swift and decisive. Mo Chen must have been the one who instructed them to do so.
Regardless of whether it was from the perspective of protecting the reputation of the two families or to protect her, Lu Qi was very grateful.
Mo Chen seemed to have noticed her gaze and their eyes met. Lu Qi lowered her head as she evaded her gaze and her ears turned slightly red.
"This is explosive! The reporters have captured Lu Nuannuan, the daughter of the extended family of the Lu family, appearing in the hospital's dermatology emergency department. She is suspected to have been disfigured due to an allergy!"
Lu Qi saw the news pop up on her phone and the corners of her lips curled up into a playful smile. She raised her eyebrows and clicked on the screen with interest. Very quickly, she hacked into the operating system of the operator's backend and used the source code to push this news to the top of the search rankings!
The news about Lu Nuannuan's disfigured face kept spreading. Lu Qi proudly threw her body into the soft sofa and was in a great mood.
"Mr. Mo, Qiqi, get ready to eat!"
Xie Jiao leaned over from the kitchen and greeted her with a kind and gentle expression.
Lu Qi threw her phone to her side and skipped toward the dining room.
