<h4>Chapter 1044: Do Not Harm My Child (7)</h4>


    “People like that are really shameless.”


    After Water Incense had said these words, she heard a voice behind her, “So what about people like you then, who talk bad about people behind their backs?”


    Water Incense froze. Spinning around, she saw Qiao Lian standing at the doorway with a broad smile on her face.


    Her expression was tense, but only for a second. She quickly recovered from the embarrassment of being caught and went on to say defiantly, “Ha, I didn’t even mention any names. Why do you care?”


    Qiao Lian raised an eyebrow and replied, “I didn’t mention names either. Why do you care? Unless... you were actually talking bad behind people’s backs?”


    Water Incense was speechless.


    Qiao Lian walked into the lounge.


    She looked at the crew and said after a pause, “So are we filming?”


    On this note, the crowd dispersed as the people scurried away.


    Qiao Lian turned around and nced at Water Incense briefly.


    As she turned back to start walking away, Water Incense suddenly called, “Love Chuan!”


    Water Incense’s voice was loud, so the people nearby had all turned around to look at them.


    Qiao Lian halted and turned back. Now Water Incense was standing just behind her. She said, “Those words that I said were indeed referring to you!”


    Qiao Lian raised an eyebrow.


    Water Incense smiled in a scornful manner and continued, “I don’t really care by how you got yourself up there, but getting involved with a married man is wrong! You’re destroying someone’s family. If you dare to do it, I dare to say it aloud.”


    Qiao Lian stared at Water Incense with narrowed eyes.


    Water Incense sneered, “And I’ll say it again. Your personality sucks, you’re a home-wrecker!”


    “I’m just saying this out of fairness to Mrs. Shen.”


    She said this with much conviction, which garnered the support and agreement of the people around.


    “”That’s right, indeed.”


    “No matter what, you can’t be a third party!”


    “Exactly. A person like that, what right does she have to criticize us?”


    “Why should we be the ones feeling guilty? It’s not as though we’re the third party.”


    Qiao Lian frowned


    And right at this point, a voice came from the doorway, “Don’t worry about my wife.”


    Everyone turned around simultaneously when they heard these words. They saw Shen Liangchuan striding in, apanied by Song Cheng.


    At once, the room fell silent.


    Water Incense’s pupils shrank back in shock as she quickly said, “Teach- Teacher Shen.”


    Without so much as a look in her direction, Shen Liangchuan walked right up to Qiao Lian.


    Then he frowned at her.


    After being subject to such nasty rumors, was she still stubbornly refusing to admit that she was in fact his wife?


    Was she dead set on getting a divorce?


    Shen Liangchuan felt his heart sink at once.


    He clenched his fists tightly and tried to suppress that growing pain within. After a pause, he took a deep breath.


    As he was about to speak, Water Incense interjected, “Best Actor Shen, if- if your wife knew that you’re so protective of Love Chuan, wouldn’t she be really sad?”


    “Back then, when you acknowledged your wife in the presence of the reporters, you were our role model. But now, you’re openly defending this woman, you—”


    The more Shen Liangchuan listened to Water Incense, the tighter he frowned.


    The people around had also stepped forward.


    “Best Actor Shen, Mrs. Shen is waiting for you in Beijing.”


    “Best Actor Shen, are you nning to divorce Mrs. Shen?”


    But amidst thesements, a voice suddenly eximed, “My god! You guys, haven’t you noticed that Love Chuan... looks a lot like Mrs. Shen? And it seems like Mrs. Shen’s surname is also Qiao!”
