Leap Forward Comics: Watch How I Become a Villainess

Chapter 30 1 Accidentally Came Out of the Closet

The eldest uncle was still unwilling to give up: "Even if you don't like Duanmu Cong now, you are still a girl. What if you meet a man you like one day and decide to get married? Then our Wen Group will become history! I absolutely will not allow such a thing to happen!" As he spoke, he encouraged the other directors. Two-thirds of the directors were from the Wen family, so they were naturally worried about the situation he was talking about.

But the core members are different; most of them are outstanding employees from outside the family who have followed Wen's father since the beginning of his business and helped him build this empire.

“You can’t say that. The Wen Group was founded by Mr. Wen, and it should be inherited by his children. It’s impolite for an outsider like you to interfere like this,” said Uncle Zhang, an old comrade-in-arms who had followed Mr. Wen for many years.

"Am I an outsider?" How could the uncle possibly let this go? "You, surnamed Zhang, are saying that I, surnamed Wen, am an outsider? That's utterly ridiculous!"

Lu He was getting annoyed by the arguments and silently asked the system in her mind: Can I just say that I don't like men and I like women?

System: Yes.

Wow, that actually works? Hopefully there won't be any negative consequences.

System: This is a romance comic. You just need to make sure it remains a romance comic.

Then I won't hold back, I'll just say I like the female lead! Is this world not homophobic?

System: No, this is a beautiful and harmonious romance comic. All love stories are touching fairy tales!

"I don't like men!" Lu He dropped the bombshell: "I, Wen Shiyu, have always loved Duanmu Cong's girlfriend, Xia Lan!"

In an instant, like a bombshell, it silenced everyone.

Mr. Wen was the first to react, and he immediately laughed out happily: "Good, good, good, now there's no question of whether she'll get married or not. The Wen family will never change its surname, and my daughter will never get married. You can all shut up now!"

Wen's father was so happy he couldn't stop smiling.

How wonderful. Looking at the smiles on the faces of these elders, all for the sake of the Wen family being able to keep the Wen surname forever, and no one thinking there was anything wrong with her liking women, Lu He suddenly felt a pang of sadness... If the real world could be so accepting, would she and her have been able to stay together until the end?

"Alright, now that all the issues have been resolved, let's begin the press conference. I'll announce the successor." Father Wen pulled Lu He towards the venue.

"Wait a minute," the uncle persisted, "Since ancient times, only men can inherit the family business. Even if Xiaoyu doesn't get married, she's not a man! My son Wencan is a man no matter what..."

Lu He finally lost his temper: "You're like a turtle eating coal, you black-hearted bastard! What kind of scheme are you plotting? You're acting all high and mighty, do you think my brother Wen Yiming is dead? Don't my family have any male heirs? Let me tell you, my dad is going to pass the company on to me, if you're not happy about it, then shut up! My dad has sons of his own, it's not your son's turn! Do you understand?" After cursing, she finally felt relieved.

Only the eldest uncle remained, his face twitching with anger. The others stopped siding with him and all moved closer to Wen's father and Wen Shiyu.

Mr. Wen pulled his daughter aside with satisfaction and said casually, "Hey, don't be so rude to your uncle. He's an elder, after all." He added a sarcastic tone at the end. The uncle got even angrier.

The father and daughter are exactly alike in their ability to infuriate people.

Wen's father then asked in a low voice, "Was what you just said true?"

"Of course, saying I liked Duanmu Cong before was just a cover. I actually like his girlfriend, but I'm still pursuing her. I haven't won her over yet~"

"What do you think of this girl? Maybe I'll bring her home for dinner sometime!"

"That's a must~"

After the press conference, public opinion was in an uproar.

The media outlets that initially thought Wen Yiming was the heir apparent of the Wen family have now realized they were all wrong; it turns out the Wen family has always been focusing on grooming their daughter!

As a result, the trending topics immediately shifted, with everyone reporting on the Wen family's announcement of their heir. Since Wen Yiming was no longer the Wen family's crown prince, there was nothing worth reporting on. Thus, the news of him fighting with Crown Prince Duanmu in the street was quickly overshadowed.

The news report also mentioned that Miss Wen's second daughter liked women.

At this moment, the three people sitting in front of the television were all filled with mixed feelings and had their own thoughts.

Wen Yiming changed the channel without any emotional fluctuation: Dad really dares to say anything to suppress the news. Whatever, I had no interest in the company anyway...

Duanmu Cong revealed a domineering, wicked smile: This woman dares to lie in order to inherit the group? Ha, she actually said she's never loved a man? You don't love me? Do you think I'd believe that?

Xia Lan was panicked: She likes women? Xiao Yu... could it be...?
