Chapter 431: 278 Big Brother: Demand identity in public, bring daughter-in-law h(3 updates) Upon hearing these words, the group of reporters was taken aback; they dared not do anything to Shen Zhixian to begin with, but now, stunned by her retort, they realized that she was not an easy target as she appeared amiable, yet held a convincingly strong presence.

"Miss Shen, what about the stuff online..." There's always sreporter who isn't afraid of death.

"How I live my private life, do I need to inform you? Let's not even talk aboutbeing an ordinary person, even if I were a celebrity, would I not be allowed to have privacy over who I date?" "Stalking and taking secret photos, and then blatantly posting them online for wide dissemination, is already illegal." "I haven't even held you accountable yet, and you casking me? Who gave you the courage? With so many of you, do you think there is safety in numbers? Do you think I can't do anything about you?" Previously, Jiang Chengsi had mentioned that someone had already tracked down Taotao; she was already uncomfortable about it but didn't expect that after her photo was posted online, these people would dare to follow up with questions.

Tang Wan stood slightly behind her, observing her; she looked gentle and delicate, usually spoke softly and gently, but now she stood in front of herself, facing so many cameras, calm and undaunted.

"Something about being kept..." someone muttered under their breath.

"Kept? Where's the evidence?" Shen Zhixian looked toward the person speaking, "Just based on a few photos, you say our relationship is sordid. Tell me, if we are both unmarried, and I am willing to spend money on him, so what if I have a pretty boy?" "Did we commit murder or arson, or harm anyone?" "Is it your place to question me?" "Even if I partied every night and changed the person by my pillow daily, what does it have to do with you? If I haven't done anything immoral or harmful, on what grounds do you judge and criticize me?" The reporter dared not speak, let alone step forward; they couldn't afford to offend the Xie Family.

Tang Wan coughed softly; to party every night and to change partners daily, if her elder brother heard this, he would surely be hopping mad.

** Over at the Xie Family, they were originally having lunch when they unexpectedly received the news, which was quite surprising.

Shen Zhixian keeping a pretty boy? That was utterly preposterous.

While Xie Duo was contacting Shen Zhixian, Elder Xie looked at the photos intently on his mobile phone; they were not clear, and after scrutinizing them for a while, he said, "This pretty boy mentioned online, is..." "Jiang Yanting." Xie Duo spoke up; he would recognize that silhouette even if it turned to ashes. "These people really have too much free ton their hands, spouting nonsense." "Grandpa, I can't get through to Auntie's phone." Xie Duo frowned.

"The things said online are really unpleasant; Dad, should we have the company's PR issue a statement?" Du Jinglan looked at her mobile phone and frowned at the elder, "They're even bringing up terms like 'kept man'; their relationship is normal, so why are they portrayed so negatively?" "How should we issue a statement?" Elder Xie suddenly frowned, abruptly put down his chopsticks, his tone sharply intense.

Xie Tongtong, who had been looking at her phone, jumped at the elder's raised voice, "Grandpa? What's wrong?" "The news online only mentions Zhixian and our Xie Family throughout, completely omitting the Jiang Family. If the paparazzi were able to track her down, how could they possibly not recognize Jiang Yanting? Only capture his back?" "They deliberately didn't release both people's frontal shots, probably because they don't want to offend the Jiang Family and also to leave maneuvering room for everyone." "If we said, the back in the photo is Xie Duo, speople would believe it. This person didn't dare to block off their escape route."

All journalists and media are not fools, even if they capture ssolid they wouldn't dare to evidence, they completely reveal everything openly, as they need to leave room for both parties. Elder Xie chuckled softly, "But now, if our family announces publicly that the person is Jiang Yanting, what do you think will happen..."

Xie Duo pursed his lips, pondering for a moment, "If Jiang Yanting acknowledges it it's fine, but if he denies it and the reporter doesn't produce a frontal photo... both Auntie and us will beca laughingstock." "Jinglan, how do you think we should issue this statement?" Elder Xie looked towards his daughter-in-law on the opposite side.

Du Jinglan gave a wry smile, "I hadn't thought that far ahead."

"If Jiang Yanting were to acknowledge it, that would mean the entire Jiang Family would be O M recognizing Auntie, which would involve a lot..." Xie Duo analyzed, "So, it's either Jiang Yanting takes a stand on his own, or..." Xie Tongtong opened her mouth, "Auntie takes the fall herself?" "Exactly!" But no one dared to offend the Jiang Family, and Jiang Yanting was known for being formidable. The journalist who didn't dare to fully release the photo must have had their concerns.

If Shen Zhixian told the reporters that the person was Jiang Yanting and the other party remained silent or flatly denied it, it would be the sas a slap in her face.
