Chapter 125 - I like you ("I want to go on with you")
(2)

"I have never told this to you because there were so
many things that I haven't done yet and a lot of them
must be done through dirty and shameless means.
I didn't want you to get drag into it. I wanted to wait
and tell you all about it when everything settled down
and that those who needed taking care of had been
taken care of. But now..." His thumb swiped passed
the corner of her eye gently and he put his arms
around her. "Lili, I don't want you to have to
take it all on your own. I just want you to know that
no matter what happens, don't worry. You still have
me and I will be here for you. JJK had gone
bankrupt but I haven't. Whatever difficulties you run
into, I will stand by your side."

Staying inside of his arms, all she could smell him
after the shower. All of a sudden, she was choking
up.

Anything that happened before she had
transmigrated seemed like they had taken place such
a long time ago. But she could still feel the pain of
being struck by lightning the night she attempted to
transform and how the pain was in every pore of
her.

Back then, she had nobody to turn to. It had been a
long, long time since someone had been so open and
honest with her. After a long while, she hid her face
in his chest and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Mu."

That's all she could say.

She struggled to break free of him and said, "But, Mr. Mu, please don't go tomorrow. I beg of you." Having said that, she saw Mu Jungkook's eyes dimmed.

He opened his mouth and let out a sigh softly. "Okay.
I'll respect your wish. But, if there is anything that
you can't handle, you let me know right away, okay?"
Xu Lisa nodded.

Even the clear moon could not sort out everything
between the two of them.

Both of them suffered from insomnia that night.

Just one night's time, Lin Jennie had responded for Xu Lisa about holding a news conference as well as
arranging for the time, the location, and sending out
the invitations to reporters.

And, also just over this one night, almost the entire
acting career of Xu Lisa had been dug up and
many of her dirt from years ago that had been
cleared were dredged up again. Her reputation
dropped drastically overnight.

The posts on the Penguin Group and Rabbit District
were up to 20 pages long. All of the melon-eaters
stayed up the entire night with dark circles under
their eyes waiting for the arrival of the big melon.

The female lead fallen to the queen of negative
publicity overnight. Even Plainness's director finally
couldn't help but gave Xu Lisa a call in person and
asked her what was her plans in dealing with this
matter.

Other than the melon eaters that were used and
influenced, there were some of those within the
entertainment circle who were capable of making
their own judgement.

It was only too easy to destroy someone in this circle.

Xu Lisa did not elaborate but just told him that he
was welcome to attend the press conference if he'd
like to see it for himself.

The next day, Xu Lisa gowned up to the hotel. She
was calmed like nothing had happened. Her makeup
was more delicate than before, even. Her beauty was breathtaking. Facing all of the reporters maliciously waiting to snap pictures of her worst moment, she even smiled at each and every single one of them gracefully and turned a condemnation event to a show for herself.

While pictures were being taken, Xu Lisa noticed a
few familiar faces among the media reporters.

They were Bai Jimin's bodyguards. Mu Jungkook wasn't there in person but he still worried about her and sent others to guard over her.

Many of the melon eaters, albeit being at work or
school, waited on all the major streaming platforms,
waiting for Xu Lisa to make a fool out of herself.

Yet the only thing that Xu Lisa provided for them
was pretty high-definition pictures one after another.

What could they say, eh?
