Jiang Xuan's casual remark seemed to instantly rob everyone in the auditorium of their ability to speak.
If Jiang Xuan had said that he was just present at the time, everyone might have understood, but to say that the man in the photo, who was intimate with Xia Ye, was him...
It took a long time before someone finally said in a daze, "Is that true? The person in the photo is President Jiang?"
"President Jiang... is Xia Ye's intimate other?"
It's strange how people think sometimes.
When everyone was biased and saw only the intimate silhouette of the man in the photos, their minds were filled with vulgar phrases like 'high school student escorting', 'being kept by a wealthy person', 'degrading oneself willingly'.
But when they superimposed Jiang Xuan's face onto it, those words were all swept away.
Furthermore, Jiang Xuan had clearly said that he was just pretending at the time and did not actually touch her.
