Xu Jiamu put his phone away, his voice still carrying a hint of anger. "You guys can cause a ruckus here, I've already called the police. Trespassing is against the law."
The reporters felt a little guilty after hearing Xu Jiamu's words, and their footsteps clearly slowed down.
Taking this chance, Xu Jiamu grabbed Qiao Anhao's wrist and rushed into the house, slamming the door shut.
Just now, in the courtyard, because of the reporters, the situation was chaotic, so Xu Jiamu didn't think too much about it. Now that there was only him and Qiao Anhao left in the house, the night of the charity gala suddenly floated into his mind. The guilt instantly filled his heart, and he didn't have the face to look at Qiao Anhao.
Qiao Anhao stood at the door in shock. She took two deep breaths to calm herself down. She glanced over at Xu Jiamu and said, "Brother Jiamu, thank you."
The word "Brother Jiamu" made Xu Jiamu's heart feel even more guilty. He didn't dare look at Qiao Anhao's eyes, and just lowered his eyelids and nodded.
Qiao Anhao bent down to help him grab a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet. "Come in and sit for a while, the reporters haven't left yet."
With that, Qiao Anhao turned and walked into the house.
Only then did Xu Jiamu's tensed body relax. He leaned against the door, his expression a little dazed.
Qiao Anhao came out of the kitchen with two glasses of water. She saw that Xu Jiamu was still standing at the door in a daze. "Brother Jiamu?"
Xu Jiamu came back to his senses with a little hesitation. He glanced over at Qiao Anhao, and the moment his eyes met her pitch-black and clear gaze, he abruptly turned his head away. He slowly changed his shoes and walked into the house.
"Sit." Qiao Anhao pointed at the sofa.
Xu Jiamu said in a low voice, "Thank you", and sat down.
Qiao Anhao placed a glass of water in front of Xu Jiamu.
Xu Jiamu's voice was a little bitter as he said, "Thank you."
Then he stared straight at the glass of water.
After a long silence, Xu Jiamu said, "I saw the news online about your marriage. Is it true?"
"Mmh," replied Qiao Anhao softly.
Xu Jiamu instinctively wanted to ask, "Is my brother alright?" However, when he opened his mouth, he felt that his throat was extremely blocked. In the end, he hugged the cup and lowered his head.
The room fell silent once again. This time, Qiao Anhao was the first to speak. "Brother Jiamu, not many people know about our marriage, how did the news get out?"
Xu Jiamu tightened his grip on the cup.
"Also, Brother Jiamu, those photos of me and Lu Jinnian eating together, only our families have them. How did they end up on the internet?"
Qiao Anhao's tone was clearly the same as before, gentle and obedient, but to him, those two sentences were like two tight slaps to his face.
Half an hour ago, Song Xiangsi had told him about it.
When he saw the news, he was dumbfounded. Then, he knew who had done it.
Coincidentally, he had stayed at Mian Xiu Garden the night before. Because of the news, he was in a bad mood, so he stood on the balcony to smoke. In the end, he saw Qiao Anhao opening the door and being surrounded by reporters.
He extinguished his cigarette without hesitation, ran down, jumped over the fence between the two villas, and rushed over.
