Chapter 1118: Uncompromising
Yet the students were focussed on Lu Man right now and n.o.body was chatting in the cla.s.s. At the most, conversations were in such soft voices that they could be neglected.
As such, Zheng Yuan’s voice at her normal volume actually allowed every student in the cla.s.s to hear it clearly.
And everyone looked at Lu Man, stunned.
Prior, she was just engaged, and now, she’s already married?
Lu Man’s only 23 years old!
Though she was older than these students in the cla.s.s, it was only by one or two years.
There were a few among them who had tried and failed the admission exams to the National Film Academy for a couple of years before making it, and they were of the same age as Lu Man.
Moreover, people would neglect Lu Man’s actual age and regard her as someone younger as she was still at her soph.o.m.ore year in school.
Not to mention, Lu Man had a youthful face. People would not doubt her if she were to claim to be 19 or 20.
Even if this was not the case, at 23, most people would have just graduated. Which girl would marry at such a young age nowadays?!
And there was still the fact that Lu Man was still intent on working in the entertainment industry.
She was pretty with decent acting skills. She could use both areas to gain roles.
Such female artistes were a rarity in the entertainment industry currently, and the moment they marry and became wives, they would be restricted in terms of roles offered.
The audience would find it hard to swallow when you’re a married mother pretending to be a young girl having romance with a hot, young man.
Hence, ambitious actresses would not marry early.
Popular married female celebrities in the entertainment industry currently were mostly in their 30s or 40s.
When you’re married, many things become inconvenient.
As to what those things were, everyone knew in their hearts.
Lu Man’s only 23, the age when her career was just taking off, yet she chose to marry!
And until now, no one knew of her husband’s family’s status.
At least, the girls in the cla.s.s who heard of this did not approve of Lu Man’s choice.
“Ha, marrying so early, so uncompromising,” Zhuang Tingting scoffed. “She’s just ruining her career.”
Zhang Xiaoying was curious too and said softly, “Maybe she just wanted to ensnare her fiance? Many female stars right now want to marry into the rich. Maybe she’s like this too.”
Fan Xiyue curled her lip. “Then usually, who is she putting on her holier-than-thou act for?”
Fan Xiyue scoffed, “Isn’t it still about marrying the rich through the entertainment industry? Pretending like she didn’t care about all these things and that acting skills were all that mattered. What a hypocrite!”
Yu Jingxian scorned her too, saying, “Who knows if her husband is even wealthy? When Lu Man’s in-laws came that time, they did cut quite an imposing figure. But looking back, it was only on their words when they claimed to be so impressive and mighty. Where’s the proof? Just that one car?”
Yu Jingxian curled her lip and a.n.a.lyzed, “That Mulsanne was expensive, but if Xiaoying wanted to, she could also buy it.”
Zhuang Tingting immediately said, “Of course Xiaoying could afford it.”
“That’s right, a Mulsanne doesn’t mean anything. Maybe Lu Man’s in-laws are just that tiny bit rich, but they might not be filthily rich. When her in-laws came that day, they gave us no proof and only their empty words.”
“What Jingxian said makes sense.” Hearing Yu Jingxian’s a.n.a.lysis made Fan Xiyue very pleased.
