Because I simply love you

The interviewer silently gauged her and, in just a second, looked her from head to toe.

Wang Ling was surely a beauty. It was the kind of beauty that urged everyone around her to take care of her as she looked like a delicate rose.

She stood up and smiled. "Nice to meet you, Miss Wang. I guess Huang Minzhe's fans watching him on the television would be really shocked and thrilled to see you."

Wang Ling politely smiled. "I am also really nervous today. After all, everybody will be having certain expectations from Minzhe's girlfriend. So, I hope they like me."

Huang Minzhe darted a glance at Yukito.

Apart from raising his brow once, he didn't have any particularly shocking reaction.

It was more like the reason clicked to him.

Aha! So, that's why Wang Ling was here today.

And then there was no further reaction. He acknowledged it, and that was it.

But Huang Minzhe thought that Yukito was hiding his emotions quite well.

Heh. He is one tough opponent. It looks like Wang Ling's entrance didn't faze him much, but I know he must be shocked as hell.

He wanted to see his shocking reaction that would be captured on the camera, but that didn't work out.

Huang Minzhe dotingly smiled and wrapped his arm around her waist.

"Minzhe..." She looked away in embarrassment.

Yang Tian's brow twitched. He was disgusted to see this fake act. He instantly understood the purpose of this interview and Wang Ling being here today, who also ended up to be his girlfriend.

Yukito's ex-girlfriend was Huang Minzhe's fiance now. Surely, he wanted to ignite the sparks with a possible confrontation.

If Yukito's past relationship with her came to light, then it will cause a hell of a drama.

The question is, how did Huang Minzhe come to know about Wang Ling and Yukito? Did he secretly order a comprehensive report on his past that he could use to his advantage against him?

No…I would have definitely got a report about that if that was the case.

Then how?

The interviewer asked, "Miss Wang Ling? Will you share how you first met Huang Minzhe?"

She smiled. "Well, actually, it's really embarrassing. I was walking home one day from work, and suddenly I felt that someone was following me. I looked behind to see a man wearing a mask walking behind me. I freaked out because I thought he was a stalker. When I confronted him, I almost beat him up with a stick, and then he finally showed that he was Huang Minzhe. I was so shocked. Gosh, it was so embarrassing!"

The interviewer was surprised. "Seriously?"

Huang Minzhe laughed. "Yeah. Actually, I was avoiding the paparazzi, so I didn't notice that a woman was in front of me and she misunderstood me. My attention was focused on getting away from that reporter. It's when she suddenly swung a stick at me was when I realized what had happened. I understood her fear, and I profusely apologized to her. That was quite a rocky start, but we kept in touch after that, and now we are here."

"Well, that's an awkward but funny first meeting."

"Absolutely."

The interviewer curiously looked at Yukito. "Yukito. What do you have to say?"

Yukito nodded. "My hearty congratulations. You two look good together."

Huang Minzhe slyly smiled. "Come on, Yukito. Just congratulations? I thought you and Wang Ling would have a cute reunion."

The interviewer's ears perked up. "Reunion?"

"Yes. It's such a coincidence that Wang Ling and Yukito studied in the same high school, right?"

She gasped. "You two were classmates?"

Wang Ling awkwardly smiled. "Haha, yes…It's seven years, I guess, after which I am seeing him for the first time now."

This is another explosive news!

Huang Minzhe pouted and jokingly said, "Yukito, you didn't react at all. Wasn't she your good friend in school? Don't tell me that you didn't recognize her?"

Everybody read in between the lines and suspected that there might have been a past with her. If that was true, then they wanted to see his take on this.

Yukito blinked his eyes. "I did. We already met outside before the interview started. So, our reunion is kind of done already."

Yang Tian choked, and so did the rest of the crew.

Even all the fans watching the show from their homes almost stumbled off the couch.

Yukito's innocent answer just suddenly blew away the tension in the air. He spoke so nonchalantly and impassively that it took everybody by shock.

The interviewer carefully sized him. For the first time, she couldn't understand if Yukito's answer was really innocent or intentional.

Because if it was intentional, then…

"Ah, I see. So, you two have already met an hour earlier. I got surprised because Wang Ling said that she saw you now, here, for the first time. So, I got confused. Haha. My bad."

Huang Minzhe and Wang Ling's expression couldn't help but change in shock.

Now they realized the discrepancy in her statements as the interviewer pointed it out.

They already met and talked, so why did she say otherwise? Did they want him to be in an odd position and embarrass himself?

All sorts of questions formed in everybody's minds.

Huang Minzhe slightly coughed and signaled her to salvage the situation.

Wang Ling quickly said, "Of course we just met outside. That's what I meant by seeing him for the first time."

The interviewer inwardly sneered.

Hoooo….But you didn't correct Huang Minzhe when he asked Yukito if he didn't recognize you. That meant you wanted to put him in a difficult position and also make him apologize to you.

The interviewer had seen so many word traps in her career by other celebrities to defame their rivals that her instincts were honed enough to spot such lies.

The interview continued for another thirty minutes, after which it wrapped up.

Yang Tian cracked in laughter. "Yukito…oh, my most favorite artist in the entire universe, you were simply awesome today. Hahaha. Huang wanted to tarnish your reputation, but they fell into their own trap."
