Chapter 78 - 78: The Appearance of a Love Rival l
About trending on social media, Gu Li was at a loss for words.
It started like this, netizens were browsing MuMu’s Instagram, and while following the trail, they managed to find her Instagram account.
Well, let them find it. After all, she was a high-spirited youth, and every update she posted was full of positivity, so she had nothing to worry about.
However, in the comment section appeared a persistent lover pursuing her— Count Allen, bestowed by the royal family of A Nation, attracting tons of attention.
Allen, whose real name is Murong Si, is a distant cousin of Murong Qian, making him also Gu Li’s brother by relation.
However, ever since Murong Si was young, he had harbored feelings for her. Despite her constant rejection, it was futile. He later started to confess his love for her daily in the comment section of her Instagram. Just like that, more than a decade passed by.
Murong Qian once asked her whether it didn’t move her even a bit to be courted relentlessly for decades by such a distinguished and excellent man.
Every time, Gu Li shook her head without hesitation.
She could be touched, but moved? She had only felt that once in her life, and that feeling was long given to a certain someone…
“The whole Internet is accusing you of playing two men against each other. What are you going to do about it?”
Murong Qian stroked her chin, asking with a smile.
Seeing her cousin’s amused expression, Gu Li couldn’t help but glare at her, “I’m getting bashed, and you’re happy about it? Are you really my sister?”
“Haha.”
Murong Qian’s smile widened, “Because I’m your sister, I know you can handle it perfectly and turn the situation around.”
“You really have faith in me.”
“Of course, you are the internationally renowned PR expert, Miss.G. If you can’t fix this kind of small matter, how could you survive in the industry?”
Speaking of her cousin, despite her young age, she is quite capable. She didn’t know how much good karma Mo Shiting accumulated in his previous life to easily capture her heart.
The more Murong Qian thought about it, the more she pitied Allen.
He doesn’t even know that Little Pear is already married. Otherwise, he would surely rush over from A Nation.
In response to Murong Qian’s teasing, Gu Li laughed it off.
Indeed, such a negative social media trend was negligible. She’d never had an ambiguous relationship with Allen. Anyone with clear eyes could see that it was a one-sided love story.
So long as she didn’t respond, the buzz would naturally die down.
“I’m actually very curious, how will Mo Shiting react when he sees your trending topic?”
Murong Xi suggested mischievously, “Do you want to test him a bit?”
“No!”
Gu Li rejected without hesitation, “I’m not that childish.”
Although she said that out loud, she couldn’t help but quietly plan how to reveal to him the fact that she was in high demand.
With this thought in mind, Gu Li opened Weibo and clicked into Mo Shiting’s personal page.
Her gaze fell on the Weibo post that he last shared. As the girl gently curled her lips and was about to like his post, a flicker from her phone screen showed an incoming call.
It was from Da Ha.
“Boss, I’m back.”
Da Ha’s voice was as lively as ever, easily lifting one’s mood.
However, Gu Li wasn’t happy for long when Da Ha continued, “Guess who I ran into at the airport. Count Allen, he was on the same flight as me.”
“Are you saying he’s in Hua Country now?”
Gu Li’s face turned pale.
Oh my god!
She only wanted to find a chance to show Mo Shiting how popular she was and make him care about her, but she didn’t want to actually summon Allen over…
Da Ha paused, “He said he came here especially to see you, didn’t he give you a heads up?”
Gu Li:”!!!”
She hung up the call and looked at Murong Qian with a sign of distress on her face, “Allen, he’s here.”
Murong Qian:
