Rebirth of the Cannon Fodder in the Entertainment Circle-Chapter 658: Interstellar Withering Imperial Rose Cannon Fodder (7)
Chapter 658: Interstellar Withering Imperial Rose Cannon Fodder (7)
Luo Ning had posted on Star Post and continued to take the Nourishing Potion, practicing her mental method.
Star Network then exploded.
[Two days ago at Luo Ning’s and Ling Ge’s wedding, Ling Ge didn’t show up, claiming he was on a mission. I don’t buy it; he was actually out dating his mistress.]
[Ling Ge has some nerve, blatantly slapping the Luo Family’s face like that!]
[I used to really like Ling Ge, thinking he was handsome and impressive, but after seeing his scummy behavior, I’ve gone from fan to anti-fan.]
[I remember Luo Ning saved Ling Ge, causing severe spiritual power damage to herself, and it’s been less than a year, right?
Ling Ge actually hooked up with Leng Ying around that time, making me want to spit on him.]
[These two are shameless, sneaking around behind everyone’s back for so long.]
[Ling Ge is such scum. He was our class male god at the Imperial Military Academy, and starting today, my image of him is completely shattered.]
Some people defended him, [I heard that Ling Ge agreed to marry Luo Ning only because she used saving him as leverage.]
[Then why didn’t Ling Ge object? If he had any backbone, he would have strongly opposed it. Could the Ling Family really force him to nod in agreement?]
[Exactly, even if Luo Ning used saving his life as leverage, he agreed to the marriage but didn’t show up to his wedding; that’s a character flaw.]
[If he had ditched the wedding to fight at the border, I’d still respect him for his integrity, but ditching it to meet up with a lover, that just makes me laugh...]
[Regardless, since Ling Ge agreed to marry, he should honor his commitment. In this matter, he and his lover are at fault.]
[Getting to the crux, Ling Ge met Leng Ying only after getting engaged to Luo Ning and got involved with her, which is already cheating.]
[So, Ling Ge is really trashy. He should have broken off the engagement before getting involved with other women!]
[Luo Ning is Marshal Luo’s only direct granddaughter, the highest from the third generation of the Luo Family. She could bring Ling Scumbag benefits that Leng Ying, a mere starlet, couldn’t offer, so he kept his fiancée on the hook while messing around with other women.]
[That Leng Ying previously set herself up as this self-reliant, proud figure. I thought it was real, without realizing that behind the scenes, she’s shamelessly seducing someone else’s fiancé.]
[Yeah, she always claimed she didn’t fear authority and wanted to make her own way, but from what the evidence on Star Post showed, Leng Ying’s first movie role was pulled by Ling Ge.] freewebnoveℓ.com
[It’s especially funny how when Ling Ge and Luo Ning weren’t married, she wasn’t injured, but suddenly she got hurt on the very day they wed, and had her assistant call someone away. Was this to show off she’s the real love of Ling Scumbag?]
[This is the first time I’ve ever seen a mistress so boldly declare war on the wife.]
[I’m going to vomit, this Leng Ying is truly a combination of a white lotus and green tea bitch, and Ling Scumbag is blind.]
[Honestly, I was really disappointed in Luo Ning before; the Imperial Rose shouldn’t put all her energy into one man, withering away is regrettable.
But today I’m actually happy; Luo Ning is so fierce, truly worthy of being my Imperial Rose.]
[Right, everyone said the Imperial Rose had withered, but from these posts on Star Post, the Rose is still blooming, that’s the arrogance my goddess should have.]
[I’m so heartbroken for Luo Ning, having her spiritual power severely damaged for such a trashy man, possibly never being able to become a Mechanical Master or enter the battlefield again.]
[I feel the same, hope Luo Ning can find a better man than that jerk in the future.]
On Star Network, there was overwhelming criticism towards Ling Ge and Leng Ying, since Luo Ning’s evidence wasn’t fabricated, and could be verified upon detailed investigation.
In the trio’s relationship, Luo Ning stood on the moral high ground, and even though she proposed marriage to save Ling Ge, this point was downplayed by everyone.
Old Master Luo and Father Luo were immediately informed about this by their aide.
Both of them then went to check Star Network and liked the posts from their personal Star Posts.
It caused a frenzy when Marshal Luo and General Luo were caught alive.
Everyone could see the Luo Family’s stance—they were going to protect Luo Ning at all costs.
Meanwhile, the Ling Family, also caught in the center of this whirlwind, made no response, neither supporting nor opposing nor rebutting.
This attitude, in fact, implicitly acknowledged that Luo Ning was justified in breaking off the engagement and that Ling Ge was indeed at fault.
It also kept the public’s perception of the Ling Family from worsening—at least they seemed to know right from wrong.
Ling Family.
Today just happened to be a family dinner day, and everyone was sitting in the dining room, but Old Sir Ling had not yet announced the start of the meal, so the kitchen remained inactive.
Mr. Ling had heard from his wife in the morning about Luo Ning’s decision to break off the engagement.
Though he expected Luo Ning might be too disappointed with their son this time, because of her previous infatuation with his son deeply ingrained in everyone’s mind, he thought Luo Ning would have the Luo Family members verbally break off the engagement.
That way, there might still be a chance to mend their son’s relationship.
But he had never anticipated she would be so resolute, choosing to break off the engagement on the Star Network and even exposing the truth that their son had not attended his own wedding.
Making such a choice only proved one thing—Luo Ning had given up on his son completely, leaving no room for reconciliation.
Otherwise, if everything blew up on the Star Network and she still broke off the engagement, if Luo Ning ever got back together with Ling Ge, she’d definitely be severely criticized for demeaning herself.
Old Sir Ling actually had not expected Luo Ning to be so firm and domineering this time.
He looked at the family members and said, "You all know about Luo Ning breaking off the engagement, right?"
"We know. Ling Ge really went too far this time."
"Yes, not only did his running away on the wedding day embarrass the Luo Family, but our family lost face as well, and now this incident has completely disgraced the Luo Family."
"What’s wrong with Luo Ning?"
"If it hadn’t been for saving Ling Ge and severely damaging her spiritual power, she would definitely be the heir to the Luo Family. He repays her enormous sacrifice in such a way?"
"What is that Leng Ying compared to her? I think Ling Ge is blind."
"Although Luo Ning’s approach was somewhat extreme, it is understandable considering all that she has done and sacrificed for Ling Ge over the years, which we all have seen."
"Ling Ge has always been rational and strategical, yet this time he could do such a foolish thing for a woman—it really demonstrates how lust can cloud one’s judgment."
Mr. Ling and his wife remained silent while Ling Ge’s uncles and aunts couldn’t wait to start condemning him.
On one hand, they were genuinely angry about Ling Ge causing a scene and tarnishing the Ling Family’s reputation and harming their relationship with the Luo Family.
On the other hand, Old Sir Ling favored Ling Ge over the other grandchildren, not only because of Ling Ge’s own excellent talents but also due to his connection with Luo Ning.
Mr. Ling had been injured in a previous war with the Insect Clan and could no longer head into battle, changing into a civilian role.
Because of this, Old Sir Ling had always considered choosing Ling Ge as his successor, intending to bypass Mr. Ling and appoint Ling Ge as the next head of the Ling Family upon his death.
Old Sir Ling had consulted Mr. Ling, and the others knew about it.
This had caused friction among other family members who were not entirely accepting of this in private.
Now that Luo Ning wanted to break off the engagement and leave Ling Ge, they were naturally eager to kick him while he was down.
Ling Ge’s failure disappointed Old Sir Ling, which could influence the choice of the third-generation heir.
Anyway, as long as the third generation’s heir hadn’t been finalized or the next family head hadn’t been appointed yet, there was still a chance for the direct lineage of the third generation to compete.
