“I told you, I know him.” Jiang Yining restrained her excitement and asked, “Where is your father now?”
“Los Angeles.” The girl pursed her lips and said, “How did you know my father? Are you very close to him?”
Yan Han used to be her father’s name. After moving to Los Angeles, he changed his name to Han Jinshu.
Therefore, very few people knew the name Yan Han.
The girl looked at Jiang Yining curiously, hoping to learn more about her father through her.
Jiang Yining sneered inwardly.
So he went to Los Angeles. No wonder she couldn’t find him after asking around for so long after she returned to China.
Meeting the girl’s innocent gaze, Jiang Yining said, “I’ve met your father a few times, but we’re not particularly close. But 1 know he’s Qi Bai’s disciple. Your father is talented, 1 guess you must be good at painting, right?”
Everyone liked compliments. The girl flipped her hair and said, “Of course. 1 came to A-City this time to kick off the first stop of my domestic comic exhibition. If you like it, leave me your address and I’ll send you an autographed book.”
Jiang Yining’s gaze fell on the billboard set up by the cafe and happened to see the poster of the comic exhibition.
[Super-popular rising female comic artist Yan Ruo makes her first appearance, releasing a stunning new work! ]
Yan Ruo.
She was indeed Yan Han’s child.
Jiang Yining smiled and said, “Sure.”
She borrowed paper and a pen from the staff, wrote down her address, and handed it to Yan Ruo. Then she casually asked, “By the way, hasn’t your father returned to the country?” You’re hosting a national comic exhibition. It’s such an important event. He should be back, right? I still want to meet him.”
“My father won’t come back. Don’t even think about it.” Yan Ruo stared at her warily and asked, “What’s your name? You haven’t told me yet.”
“My name is Jiang Yining.”
Jiang Yining said clearly.
Yan Ruo nodded.” Okay, I’ll remember it. Let’s keep in touch in the future.”
“Alright.”
Yan Ruo’s assistant walked over and whispered a few words.
Yan Ruo followed her.
Jiang Yining turned around, and her face turned cold when she couldn’t see Yan Ruo.
Xiao Lang sensed that something was wrong and asked, “Do you have a grudge against Yan Han?”
She smiled warmly in front of Yan Han’s daughter, but when she turned away, she revealed such a murderous intent.
Anyone with eyes could guess.
She must have had a grudge against Yan Han.
Jiang Yining said lightly, “It has nothing to do with you. Curiosity killed the cat, so don’t ask too much.”
When Xiao Lang heard this, he felt a little hurt.
He thought that they were good friends, but he didn’t expect that she still had something she couldn’t tell him.
However…
He was always easygoing.
Shrugging he said, “Ok, I won’t ask about your affairs.”
Jiang Yining had something on her mind, so she didn’t talk to him anymore. She hurriedly said goodbye and left the cafe.
After returning home, Jiang Yining went online and did some research on Yan Ruo.
She was an overseas Chinese who had returned from America. It was said that she had a high reputation in the comics industry there. However, she was very secretive about her family and never talked about them.
Therefore, there was little information available from the outside world.
Currently, the rumors circulating on the Internet were that she came from a single-parent family without a mother.
In addition, the reason why she returned to the country to hold the comic convention was because a film company in the country had taken a fancy to her work.
They offered a sky-high price and bought the film rights.
After the national publicity, her work would be adapted into films and IV series.
Jiang Yining stared coldly at the computer screen.
Did Yan Han think that after so long, no one would remember the evil things he had done, so he confidently allowed his daughter to return to China?
Heh…
Don’t even think about it.
Wasn’t he hiding in Los Angeles and refusing to come back?
Then she would destroy everything his precious daughter had and see if he would remain unmoved and continue to hide overseas.
Jiang Yining thought of this and ordered the housekeeper to buy an electronic drawing board.
In the room, after carefully studying Yan Ruo’s work, she immediately began to compose.
That night.
The largest comic platform in the country had produced a new work-
[But my boss wants to marry me.]
This comic mainly tells the humorous stories between a workplace rookie and a high and cold boss.
The painting style was extremely exquisite, and the plot was also very cute.
Coincidentally, it was the same genre as Yan Ruo’s.
Jiang Yining drew twenty frames overnight, published them all, and simultaneously posted them on her Weibo. She also tagged her university friend, Su Manman, who was also a popular star in the film and television industry.
When Su Manman saw the message that mentioned her, she thought her eyes were playing tricks on her.
It had been a long time since Jiang Yining had contacted her.
When they were in university, they shared the same dormitory, but Jiang Yining had always been a loner and rarely interacted with others.
They originally had no connection.
But one time, she got involved with a scumbag who took indecent photos of her. The scumbag threatened her, forcing her to accompany a much older sleazy man for the benefit of his newly established company.
If she didn’t agree, he would expose her photos, making her unable to lift her head in front of all her classmates, relatives, and friends.
At that time, she was still young and had never experienced such dirty things.
She was so desperate that she almost jumped off the building.
Jiang Yining happened to be sitting on the rooftop, admiring the sunset.
Seeing her about to jump off the building, Jiang Yining told her about the various tragic scenes after committing suicide. She was scared back inside.
And then…
She cried and told Jiang Yining about her encounter.
Jiang Yining listened quietly and only said, “Leave it to me. All the photos will disappear. The scumbag will be punished.”
She waited anxiously for a few days.
In the end, it was just as Jiang Yining had said. The scumbag and those photos disappeared without a trace overnight.
She had always been grateful to Jiang Yining and wanted to repay her.
However, not long after, Jiang Yining went to the United States as an exchange student to pursue a medical PhD.
She didn’t save Jiang Yining’s number either.
The only way to contact her was through Weibo.
Now…
Jiang Yining needed her help with something, so Su Manman naturally forwarded it without hesitation!
[It’s a great comic! Bursting with girly excitement. 1 hope everyone will support it.]
Her over five million fans were not for show.
They immediately reposted and liked it.
With such popularity, Jiang Yining’s work instantly reached the top of the comic website.
It was ranked 30th on Weibo’s trending searches.
And this was only the beginning….
