They all knew that over the past two years, it was all a show written, directed, and acted by Doctor Jiang herself.
Lucky for Doctor Lu; he stayed put, offered no explanations, and made no admissions. How people wanted to guess was their business, he didn't respond to the gossip and wouldn't clarify anything.
Actually, it was really for the best. Had there been any response, some peculiar minds would have thought it was a case of "the guilty party files the suit."
Hence, Doctor Lu was truly clever, extremely shrewd. Jiang Shanshan was capable of spreading rumors about her and Doctor Lu, but she had no way to show off a marriage license, let alone send out invitations and have everyone drink to their wedding.
The rumors and gossip spun by Doctor Jiang would naturally collapse if given some time, especially if Doctor Lu took another as his bride.
However, to achieve what Doctor Lu did, one needed tremendous willpower and psychological resilience.
