Chapter 922: Beautiful Misunderstanding

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xia Mengyan smiled bitterly. “This engagement is indeed mine, but it doesn’t matter whether I’m Mrs. Gu or not. Don’t blame my cousin anymore. No matter what, she has the Xia family’s bloodline. It’s only right for her to marry President Gu.”

The reporters instantly understood. They originally thought that Mrs. Gu and President Gu had fallen in love. Now, they knew that Mrs. Gu had snatched someone else’s engagement to claim the title of Mrs. Gu. Everyone had already thought of how to write the news articles.

“It’s been so long since the matter of snatching the marriage contract, but Mrs. Gu hasn’t responded. Miss Xia, are you here today to ask for an explanation?”

Hearing the reporter’s question, Xia Mengyan shook her head and looked at her grandparents beside her. She took a deep breath and said, “There’s nothing to fight over between us cousins. I’ll just treat this as a beautiful misunderstanding. Xi Xi and I…”

At this point, she suddenly choked, making everyone feel regretful and angry for her. This marriage contract originally belonged to Xia Mengyan. She could have married Gu Zheng and become the most powerful woman in Li City. Moreover, everyone knew that Gu Zheng doted on Mrs. Gu very much. This love should have belonged to Xia Mengyan. Which woman would not be angry if they were in her shoes?

If she had lost something, she could ask the other party to compensate her. However, Xia Mengyan had lost an engagement. How was she going to ask for compensation?

At this moment, Xia Cheng walked forward with a serious expression. “If you have any questions, ask me. I’ll answer them for everyone. Firstly, we only came to the banquet after receiving President Gu’s invitation.”

The moment that was said, everyone was dumbfounded. President Gu had actually invited the Xia family to the banquet? The Xia family and Mrs. Gu were already at odds. Xia Mengyan’s fans went to Mrs. Gu’s account every day to curse and send countless private messages to her. However, President Gu actually invited the Xia family over at this time. Why?

Even if President Gu hated the Xia family and wanted to take revenge on them, he would never do it in front of everyone. If he really did that, their reputation would be completely ruined.

“That’s right. The engagement was originally Mengyan’s. Although Xi Xi did something wrong, she’s my granddaughter, after all. I can’t let her get a divorce. If she can be happy, as her grandfather, I’ll be relieved.

“But Mengyan is also my granddaughter. I can’t bear to see her suffer. Xi Xi stole her fiance, and President Gu didn’t know about it. No one can understand what this sort of pain is like.”

With that, Xia Cheng sighed helplessly. The reporters also looked regretful.

President Gu did not know about this and was already married to Qiao Xi. Xia Cheng could not let Qiao Xi divorce Gu Zheng, but who would bear the grievances Xia Mengyan had suffered?

......

Xia Cheng’s old eyes were slightly red. “When I first received the invitation, I didn’t want to bring Mengyan along. I was afraid that she would be sad. Most importantly, Xi Xi has been refusing to meet us recently. I’m not making things difficult for Xi Xi today. I just want her to apologize to Mengyan.”

The reporters continued to ask, “Old Master Xia, when President Gu founded Heavenly Voice, he said that he wanted to give it to an important person. Now that he has handed Heavenly Voice Entertainment to Mrs. Gu to manage, it means that they’ve known each other for a few years, so…”

President Gu was able to establish Heavenly Voice for Mrs. Gu. Now that he had given it to Mrs. Gu, it was enough to prove that President Gu had already liked Mrs. Gu many years ago. The couple’s union had nothing to do with the marriage contract.

Hearing the question, Xia Cheng slowly lowered his head, and his eyes were filled with sorrow. “I didn’t want to talk about this. Actually, Qingfeng Entertainment is the Xia family’s business.”

The reporters gasped.

“Qingfeng Entertainment used to be a small studio in the Xia family. I always handed it to my daughter, Xia Yunqiu, to manage. After my daughter passed away, I handed the studio to Xi Xi. However, she was too young to manage the company, so I often had Mengyan handle company matters.”

The reporters hurriedly asked, “You mean that the person President Gu has been thinking about is Miss Xia, but he got the wrong person?”

Xia Cheng remained silent, but in everyone’s opinion, he was tacitly agreeing to this matter. They originally thought that it was just a conflict between Xia Mengyan and Qiao Xi because of their engagement, but they never expected that there was such a thing behind it.

Everyone could not help but have a guess. Perhaps President Gu had long known that he was engaged to the Xia family. Coincidentally, he met a young lady in the studio and fell in love with her at first sight. Hence, he decided to establish Heavenly Voice Entertainment for her.
