Gu Jingming was indeed marrying her because of political reasons and to protect his image.
But since when was she bow-legged?
Yu Minmin looked speechlessly at the Glazed Tile Palace attendants, “Are my legs very thick?”
The attendant stuttered, “Miss Yu, you’re very pretty and slim. Your legs are also very nice. Those people are talking nonsense. It’s better if you don’t look at all these comments anymore.”
Yu Minmin said, “Forget it. Nevermind. I’ve been working menial jobs and have been in the eyes of the public for years. I have seen every nasty comment there is.”
But in all these years, the comments she saw were always about other people. Who would have thought that it would be her turn now to be insulted?
This feeling was truly very weird.
Yu Minmin’s phone rang again. It had rung endlessly today. Her phone had been ringing nonstop and she never picked it up.
Once again, she muted her phone and sighed, hoping that this day would pass quickly.
At night, Yu Minmin was protected and sent home in the dark.
Her mother knew about this news from the TV and must have been very shocked.
Yu Minmin told her mother that she was already going to be engaged. Her mother hoped that she would bring her boyfriend back home first. Her mother trusted her choice and she was free to decide her engagement, but it was better to bring him back home if she could.
Yu Minmin thought, Bring Gu Jingming back for my mother to see?
No way would Gu Jingming go to her house.
He was so busy daily that she didn’t even see him often in Glazed Tile Palace. How would he be able to step into that dilapidated house of hers?
Yu Minmin returned home and saw her mother rush out to her. She held Yu Minmin’s hand and had a stunned expression. She was so shaken that it could even be felt in her surprised voice.
“Minmin, what is going on? So many reporters came by this afternoon and said that you’re going to be Madam President. What is going on with that? S-since when were you going to be Madam President? So many of our relatives also called up and I told them that I wasn’t aware of it either.”
“Mom, this is all true. When our relatives ask again, just tell them that you don’t know.”
“Really? You’re marrying Mr. President?”
“That’s right.”
“Oh my God. How come? Y-you said that you were going to be engaged. The other party is Mr. President?”
“That’s right.”
“Then your father was right. You’re really with Mr. President!”
Thinking about her father still gave Yu Minmin headache.
“Mom, this matter is too complicated and we can’t run around spouting nonsense outside. Otherwise, we’ll be locked up just like Dad.”
“Oh, oh, I understand. I’ll shut up and stop talking.”
Yu Minmin looked out from inside. She could still see many reporters loitering outside and downstairs. However, the president’s guards were protecting the area and didn’t allow reporters to come close.
Meanwhile, curious neighbors were around peering into the windows. Although she did expect there to be some commotion after the announcement, she didn’t expect the commotion to be so huge.
It looked like matters regarding Mr. President’s marriage were of great interest to people.
Some neighbors seemed to be at the door but were blocked by the guards stationed there. Yu Minmin and her mother could even hear their conversation from the inside.
“We can’t enter here? We’ve been old neighbors for more than a decade. We watched her grow up. Oh my, it seems like she’s really Madam President now. Seriously.”
Just then, someone came in, looked around, and asked, “What are you guys doing outside my house?”
It was her brother.
Yu Minmin quickly opened the door. She looked at her brother’s ignorant expression and quickly said, “This is my brother. He can enter.”
Her brother entered and looked at Yu Minmin in shock. He asked her, “Sis, what is going on? Why is everybody saying that you’re going to be Madam President? My teacher even called me to her office and questioned me.”
Yu Minmin speechlessly rested her forehead on her palm.
Her brother was still stunned. He looked at her and asked, “Sis, is it really true? Those very capable-looking people that day… Were they the president’s people?”
Yu Minmin’s silent admittance made her brother very happy.
“Wow, Sis! This is so cool. Are those guards outside super strong?”
Yu Minmin said, “That’s enough. Don’t cause a scene outside. I’m just here to pack some things up and to tell you guys to ignore the many reporters that will be here. These personal guards outside will be here during this period. You’ll get used to it.”
Her mother still said, “If your dad knows about it, he will definitely be thrilled. Why don’t you…”
“Enough, Mom. Don’t say a word about this to Dad!”
Her mother looked at her in surprise, “Why? It’s your marriage. Why can’t…”
“So what if we tell Dad? It’s better if he stays in there obediently.”
“Hey, you… You’re going to marry Mr. President now. Can’t we have your dad let out first?”
“No, it’s safer if he’s inside,” Yu Minmin replied and opened the door to her room.
“Minmin, Minmin, you…”
Yu Minmin thought that it was already messy enough right now. If they let that gambling addict father of hers out, wouldn’t that be apocalyptic?

Lin Che put the last hand to her parts of the film. Many reporters were waiting outside, wanting to capture her last scene.
The director also allowed a select few to enter and take photos. This was to create a bit of news and hype for the movie.
Plenty of fans were also waiting outside. When Lin Che finished the final shot of her last scene, everybody congratulated Lin Che. Lin Che was still in her stage clothes. It looked ethereal and graceful and everybody thought that she looked very pretty.
“Lin Che, well done! You did great.”
“Lin Che, you’re amazing. Congrats on your final scene.”
Lin Che got up and thanked everybody. Seeing the reporters and fans coming up to her, she also quickly thanked them.
The final take this time was smooth. Following this were the promotion dates. Lin Che knew that she was going to be busy for a long period.
A reporter asked Lin Che, “How do you feel to act with Gu Jingyu again?”
“I am especially thankful for Gu Jingyu who was always giving me directions during filming. It’s my first time filming in such an important movie, so I felt very pressured. I’m also very happy to be able to learn from so many experienced actors.”
The director also sang praises about Lin Che. He said that when she first came to film, there were indeed some areas that she was inexperienced in. However, after this period of shaping, her acting skills really grew rapidly.
The reporters inevitably made comparisons between her and Qin Wanwan again.
Lin Che was focused on filming during this period and her exposure went down a lot. At the same time, Qin Wanwan appeared on the covers again. First, she was in a controversial relationship with a wealthy second generation. Then, they broke up for good. Later, she brought out evidence that the guy was two-timing and gained sympathy. Her number of fans increased greatly. After that, there were rumors about her and a famous director. When the rumor was dispelled, she took up an extremely expensive endorsement. Now, she had signed up to study acting again at a drama school, gaining even more attention.
In comparison, news related to Lin Che had decreased. After that dispute with Xin Xiaoyuan, she practically never appeared again.
At this moment, the reporter asked, “We hard that your manager, Miss Yu Minmin, is going to become Madam President. Are you aware of this?
