Chapter 2288 Not Need to Clarify If Chu Peihan really hated Han Chenglin, Shi Xiaoyue thought that Han Chenglin should stop bothering her. However, she felt embarrassed to talk to Han Chenglin about that. Although she was involved in their relationship, she couldn't interfere in their personal affair. Han Chenglin could make decisions on his own, and didn't want other people to interfere in his business. "Do you really hate me?" Han Chenglin asked without any emotions in his voice. He asked because he knew that Chu Peihan didn't hate him as much as she seemed to on the surface. Han Chenglin was very sensitive, so he could feel that Chu Peihan had changed her attitude towards him. At the beginning, she really hated him, but she had changed her opinion of him afterwards although she still disliked talking with him. In the past, when she was mad, she would directly punch him. Now she wouldn't do that. Accordingly, even if he wasn't sure whether Chu Peihan liked him, he was certain that she at least didn't hate him. Hearing that, Chu Peihan panicked a little and said, "Not really. I just get angry when your fans attack me for no reason. There is nothing between us." "I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Han Chenglin apologized. Chu Peihan was under attack because of him, so he had to apologize. "I'll clarify it on Weibo later." He would clarify it? Hearing that, Chu Peihan felt slightly upset, but she didn't know why. "Well, it's not a big deal. Just as you said, it's just a misunderstanding. If you specially clarify it on Weibo, it'll only arouse more criticisms of me. I don't think it's necessary. People will lose interest in a few days," said Chu Peihan. She said that not only because she was a little upset about Han Chenglin's decision, but also because she was realistic. It was true that it might not do Chu Peihan any good if Han Chenglin posted a clarification on Weibo. It would only make people think that he was trying to defend Chu Peihan, and his crazy fans would attack Chu Peihan more fiercely. Or people might think that Han Chenglin hated Chu Peihan very much, so he eagerly denied the rumor about them. In that case, his fans would still continue to swear at Chu Peihan for bothering Han Chenglin. As a result, it was better not to clarify it. They could just leave the fans to guess their relationship. Han Chenglin wasn't a big star in the entertainment industry, so he actually didn't have much publicity. There was entertainment news every day, so people would soon lose interest in the rumor about them. Han Chenglin put on a satisfied smile when Chu Peihan said he didn't need to clarify their relationship. Even if Chu Peihan didn't want him to do that because of a realistic reason, he was still happy to know that she was willing to stay in an ambiguous relationship with him. "Sure, then I won't clarify it," said Han Chenglin in a loving tone. Chu Peihan, however, didn't sense the affection for her in his tone. Afterwards, Chu Peihan stopped paying attention to the criticisms on the Internet and changed the topic. Although Han Chenglin didn't mind that she had scolded him right in front of his face, Chu Peihan felt a little ashamed. After all, he was tolerant, but she shouldn't take it for granted. ... Back in the siheyuan, Gu Ning remembered the photos they had taken in the park, so she took out her phone. There were several new messages. Photos of Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were already sent to her email box, and the photographers all expressed their admiration to her after hearing about her achievements. They also apologized for posting their photos on the Internet. They asked Gu Ning if she was unhappy about it and said that they could remove the photos at once. Gu Ning didn't care about that, or she wouldn't have allowed them to take photos of them. In order to set their mind at ease, she replied to them and told them that she didn't mind. Anyway, she had no intention of keeping her relationship with Leng Shaoting a secret from the public, she simply didn't purposely make it public. There was nothing for her to be angry about. Now the photos were everywhere. It was too late for them to delete the photos. The photographers felt relieved when Gu Ning didn't blame them for that. Before long, Rong Zechen, Yuan Yilin and the others saw photos of Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting. They were all shocked. They only thought that Gu Ning had met Master Leng before, but unexpectedly Gu Ning was Leng Shaoting's girlfriend. It was too shocking! They couldn't believe that Gu Ning's fianc?? was Leng Shaoting. Right, they were already engaged. They knew Gu Ning already had a fianc??, but didn't know who the man was till now. How did Gu Ning manage to get together with Leng Shaoting? They were from different cities, and there was a huge gap between their status. Although Gu Ning was very outstanding, her success was hardly comparable to the Leng family's influence. Anyway, they were together now and Master Leng really approved of Gu Ning. After knowing that Gu Ning's fianc?? was Leng Shaoting, Rong Zechen felt a lot more relaxed. He was always in a bad mood after being rejected by Gu Ning. Even though Gu Ning was outstanding and had expansive connections, she wasn't comparable to the Yuan family. Therefore, he felt it was Gu Ning's honor that he chose her. She shouldn't have rejected him. However, now he changed his opinion, because Gu Ning's fianc??'s family was even more influential than his family. It was understandable why she rejected him. She had a better choice after all. Compared with Leng Shaoting, Rong Zechen was the worse choice. Among the young generation of the four major families, he respected Leng Shaoting the most. Leng Shaoting became a major general at a very young age. He was also the youngest major general ever since their country was established. Rong Zechen's older brother was in the army as well, so he clearly knew it was a very difficult road. One's family background wasn't everything and it depended on their own abilities to get a promotion. Although they had many advantages due to their family background, they had to rely on themselves to do tasks. Even Rong Zechen's older brother respected Leng Shaoting very much, otherwise his older brother wouldn't try to catch up with Leng Shaoting. The Leng family also extended its influence because of Leng Shaoting.
