Chapter 223: Exposure, Threat to Reputation

Li Xiwu sneered and asked, “Why do you think I still want you?”
When Ji Weiling heard this, tears fell from her eyes. “Miss Li, I…”
Li Xiwu said, “I’ll ask you again. Do you regret it?”
Ji Weiling did not answer.
Actually, she still had a little fantasy that Miss Li would forgive her for her mistake this time and give her another chance. She even regretted her attitude just now. She should have apologized the moment she saw Miss Li.
But now, the opportunity was gone, and there was no way out.
Li Xiwu leaned over and grabbed Ji Weiling’s shoulder to pull her up. Ji Weiling’s loose hair blurred her face. Li Xiwu pushed the hair away from her face bit by bit, revealing her beautiful face. But now, her beautiful face was filled with regret.
Li Xiwu wiped the tears from Ji Weiling’s eyes. “Tell me, do you regret it?”
Ji Weiling’s tears kept falling. “I regret it.”
Li Xiwu wiped it once but did not wipe it for her a second time. Her expressionless face was so cold that it was shocking. “Unfortunately, it’s too late.”
This was not the first time Yuanyuan had seen such a heartless Li Xiwu.
Ji Weiling suddenly pushed Li Xiwu away angrily. “I’ve disappointed you. It’s my fault! My fault!! But what I regret even more is that I signed the management contract with you back then! ”
Li Xiwu smirked. “Unfortunately, it’s too late to regret now.” As soon as she finished speaking, Li Xiwu turned around and said with her back facing the crying Ji Weiling, “Go to Ying Huang and fend for yourself. Hua Guan Media can’t tolerate you anymore.”
After saying what she had to say, Li Xiwu left.
When Ji Weiling heard that Li Xiwu was going to throw her to the Ying Huang Entertainment to fend for herself, she immediately stood up and chased after her. “I’m not going to Ying Huang Entertainment. If I go there, it’s equivalent to being banned. I’m not going. You can’t treat me like this…” Ji Weiling grabbed Li Xiwu’s arm.
But Li Xiwu shook her off. “You have to go even if you don’t.”
With that, Li Xiwu looked at the bewildered Yuanyuan. “Look at her.”
Although Yuanyuan felt that Miss Li had been too ruthless this time and did not give Sister Weiling a chance at all, a mistake was a mistake. It was not something that could be excused with a few words.
Especially this time. Miss Li had clearly reminded Sister Weiling once, but Sister Weiling still acted as if she was possessed and insisted on stepping into that fire pit.
In the end, she destroyed herself with her own hands.
Just as Ji Weiling was about to chase after her again, Yuanyuan went forward and pushed Ji Weiling into the house. “Sister Weiling, calm down. Think about it carefully. Perhaps Ying Huang Entertainment is also a backup plan arranged by Miss Li.”
Ji Weiling cried bitterly. “With my current reputation, going to Ying Huang Entertainment is not a way out. It’s a dead end. Why did she treat me like this? Why…”
Yuanyuan frowned. “Why don’t you know?”
Ji Weiling was stunned.
Yuanyuan reminded her, “Sister Weiling, I thought you knew best why you came to this step. You clearly let Miss Li down. You knew that it was a fire pit, but you still jumped into it.”
Ji Weiling’s eyes were red. “Even if I was wrong, she shouldn’t have forced me to a dead end, right?”
Yuanyuan said softly, “Because of Sister Xie Wen’s incident, Miss Li has always protected you very well. This time, you were bewitched by Qi Zishen, which made Miss Li even sadder. She feels very guilty for not protecting you well this time.”
Ji Weiling’s voice broke. “But Miss Li said that it’s too late…
Li Xiwu had returned to the car.
When she was at Ji Weiling’s house, she was very calm. Now that she was out, the emotions hidden under her calm appearance could collapse at any moment. She tried her best to stabilize her emotions so that her mind would not be disturbed by these things.
After a long time, she took out her phone and opened the WeChat messages from Lan Min.
Lan Min: [picture]
Lan Min: [Does it look familiar?]
Lan Min: [Don’t you think it’s a coincidence? I saw someone who looks very similar to you on the blind date show recently. If I didn’t know you very well, I would have thought this was you.]
Lan Min: [You should be very busy recently, right? But I think you should be able to resolve these small troubles easily with your ability.]
Li Xiwu read the four WeChat messages from Lan Min several times.
The first WeChat photo was of her standing on the stage for Qiao Qiao.
Recalling that at the beginning of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law variety show, she only wanted to get that sum of money. At that time, she didn’t expect herself to be so popular on the variety show. Later, when she was tempted by Qiao Qiao, she also went on that show with the attitude that she was always a commoner. Who would care about a commoner?
And yet.
One often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it.
Ever since she went on Palpitation Light, everything she experienced and everything that happened around her no longer developed according to the original plan. She became more and more famous and gradually became known by more people. Then, her identity as Mother Dragon was exposed again. With the double popularity, she received a lot of attention.
And the problem she was facing now was that Lan Min had something on her. This was a time bomb that could explode at any moment. If the netizens discovered it first, they could quickly refute the rumors the moment they were exposed online.
However, this weakness was in Lan Min’s hands. In addition, Lan Min was a manager, so she knew best how to use this long photo to cause public opinion.
There was a long hesitation.
Li Xiwu called Lan Min. When the call went through, Li Xiwu said calmly, “Miss Lan, are you free tonight? I’ve booked a restaurant and want to invite you for a chat. ”
On the other end of the line, Lan Min chuckled. “Li Xiwu, you’re still so polite. However, you really think too highly of me.”
Li Xiwu said, “I wonder if Miss Lan can do me the honor.’
Lan Min smiled. “Send me the location.”
After a short conversation, Li Xiwu quickly booked a high-end restaurant and sent the location to Lan Min.
Just as she was about to put away her phone and set off for the restaurant, Pei Jingzhou called.
Li Xiwu Dicked it uD. “I have a dinner aDD0intment tonight. I’ll be home later.” Pei Jingzhou asked her, “Where are you eating? Li Xiwu took a deep breath. “Do you have to ask?”
Pei Jingzhou said, “I’ll pick you up after the meal.”
Li Xiwu pursed her lips and told Pei Jingzhou which restaurant it was. Pei Jingzhou did not ask who she was eating with. He only reminded her to send him a message ten minutes before the meal ended.
Li Xiwu agreed. “Okay.”
Just as she was about to hang up, she suddenly remembered Yaoyao. Li Xiwu asked, “Has Madam Dixin fetched Yaoyao?”
Before leaving the house, he had agreed that when Madam Di Xin came to pick him up, he would call to say goodbye to her. However, she did not receive a call from Yaoyao all day.
She wondered if the kid had been picked up in a hurry so he hadn’t had time to call her to say goodbye..
