Passionate Devotion

Good Morning, Hubby!

Tong Juan stared at Tong Lu, who was showered with praise as she strode off. There was a grimace on her face. ‘Tong Lu seriously becomes the national hero?

‘How did she possibly become such a celebrated woman?’

“Ladies, you have no business being here. Please leave and get back into the crowd. This is not the place to just stand around,” a police officer said brusquely to Tong Juan and her mother.

Tong Juan was displeased but too embarrassed to lose her composure. “What do you mean by ‘no business being here’? That is my older sister. My older sister saved the prime minister. You should be polite to us.”

“Hehe!” The police officer let out a snort of laughter. The look on his face was stern. “If you don’t leave, we’ll arrest you for obstructing Mr. President while he carries out public duties.”

The crowd in front of the hospital entrance stirred. Everyone seemed embarrassed. The plot twist came so quickly. They had not been able to process it yet.

“Oh my god, did we misunderstand Miss Tong? The media these days is so despicable. How could they report false news and misguide us?”

“I cussed at her simply because I believed the media’s lies. After all, I had never met Miss Tong in person and had never gotten to know her. It makes sense for me. But why did her own family members smear her like that?”

“Right? That woman and her mother. Just because they are not Miss Tong’s biological mother and full sister, it doesn’t mean that they should besmirch her character, right? How lowly!”

Tong Juan was speechless.

She was embarrassed and angry. These people were just angrily cussing Tong Lu out a moment ago. ‘What makes them think they have the right to suddenly turn on me and my mother?’

Tong Juan dragged her mother away and walked faster. They ignored the boos and hisses around them as they escaped.

In the hospital, Tong Lu followed Mr. President around and checked on the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. She wondered if her brother-in-law knew that she was fine.

She suddenly had the urge to let him know that the trouble she caused had been solved.

Besides, because of this fiasco, when she came out of the ward after the visit, the president asked if she was willing to intern for him.

Tong Lu was so excited that she nearly lost her composure. “I can intern at the president’s office?”

“We intend to select an excellent volunteer to be in the reserve team at the president’s office. Your performance is applaudable. Jin told me that you’re very interested in this opportunity?”

“Did my brother-in-law tell you?” Tong Lu was surprised. She thought that her brother-in-law did not want to pull strings for her at all.

‘Now, uh… does it sound like nepotism?’

Tong Lu could not suppress her excitement and nodded firmly. “Yes, yes, yes I am. But I have not had my thesis defense. I also have school work these days. What do I do?”

Mr. President was like an affectionate elder. He was stern, dignified but also kind and amiable. “After you finish your thesis defense, come to the president’s office. You have been exhausted for the past few days. Go back and rest. I’ll get someone to send you home.”

Tong Lu nodded. She had not seen Shanshan for a few days. She missed the child very much.

But she did not need to take a ride in Mr. President’s car. Secretary Yu was already waiting for her at the hospital entrance. He had come to fetch her himself.

“Secretary Yu, does my brother-in-law know that I am alright?”

“Young Master Jin has already known. He asked me to come fetch you and tell you to go home and take a nap. Get a fresh start tomorrow.”

Tong Lu nodded and turned on her phone. Many of her classmates had texted her and asked how she was. After she replied to those messages, she saw that her father was calling her on the phone. Tong Lu did not want to answer the phone. She had heard that her father was condemning her on Weibo.

Mr. Tong had so much regret. Unfortunately, no matter how many phone calls he made, his daughter never picked up.

He had never met Mr. President in his life, yet he could see his daughter getting in and out of the president’s car on TV. It was such a great honor. It would make their ancestors proud. Mr. Tong continued to call her on the phone, refusing to give up!
