Chapter 80: How Are You Going to…Feed Me?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Huo Yuxi felt as though she was dreaming after she was thrown out of Millennium Entertainment. She could not believe that she had ended up in this state.
The more glamorous her life was in the past, the more depressed she was right now.
However, she was not as depressed as Lu Zongye, as she was still the daughter of a well-to-do family no matter what.
As she thought about it, Huo Yuxi hurriedly stood up and pushed past the crowd surrounding her before quickly getting into a taxi.
During this short period of time, Lu Zongye had already called her numerous times and was not giving up yet. Huo Yuxi felt suffocated because Lu Zongye was like a nightmare that she could not wake up from.
After returning home, Huo Yuxi locked herself up in her bedroom before she made a phone call to her father. “Dad…”
As soon as he answered the call, Huo Zhendong stopped working and focused on speaking to his daughter. “Yuxi, dad will come over to see you after I am done with my work here.”
“By the time you come, the only thing that you will see is my corpse!” Huo Yuxi cried as she told her father about all of her grievances. “Mommy does not love me or care about me at all. Such a big matter has happened to me, yet she did not even comfort me. All she had done was defend her own biological daughter.”
“Yuxi, maybe you can stop being an actress, then. Stop working in the entertainment industry. Come and work in Dongheng Enterprise. Anyway, dad needs more people that I can trust to work in the company for me. When I take over the entire Dongheng Enterprise one day, you will never have to deal with humiliation or be forced to put up with anyone else again.”
Huo Yuxi suddenly felt very vengeful. Since Fu Yahui wanted to protect Jiang Yuning at all times, then she would help her father in taking over the entire operations and management of Dongheng Enterprise. When that day had come, she would like to see how Fu Yahui was going to continue defending Jiang Yuning.
The most important thing right now was that she hated everyone in the entertainment circle. She hated everyone who had framed her and hurt her. She did not want to continue working in the entertainment industry. Therefore, she told her father, “Dad, I promise you that I will work for you in Dongheng Enterprise. However, before that, I would like to hold a press conference to announce my retirement from the entertainment industry.”
Anyway, since she was going to leave, she might as well reveal everything that she knew about Jiang Yuning so everyone would know the truth!
It was the truth anyway.
She knew that Jiang Yuning had planned everything and was the mastermind behind the exposure of Lu Zongye’s real identity. She wanted the whole world to know how despicable Jiang Yuning really was. She had to do that so that Jiang Yuning will finally know how it felt like to be humiliated like that.
Jiang Yuning would never have seen it coming and she will fall right to the bottom of the pit once again.
…
Later that evening, Jiang Yuning was applying a face mask when she decided to call the young paparazzo. “I have some work to do tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?”
“What are you going to shoot tomorrow?” the young paparazzo asked excitedly.
“Director Shen said that it is a national program, advertising for public interest. Do you want to accompany me for the shooting? You can be excused if you have classes tomorrow.”
“I will pick you up in the morning tomorrow.” The young paparazzo replied happily as he turned on his laptop. “Sister Yuning, I have just created a fan club for you! I have already included you in the fan club. If you have the time, drop by and say hello to your fans.”
The young paparazzo had successfully piqued Jiang Yuning’s interest. “I still have fans?”
“Yes, you do! I found you some of your most loyal fans,” the young paparazzo replied excitedly. “Don’t react like Brother Ku Jie. You have to trust me!”
“It just feels so unbelievable,” Jiang Yuning said as she removed her face mask and then turned on her laptop to check out the fan club that the young paparazzo had created on her behalf. Jiang Yuning was shocked when she saw the number of fans who had already joined the club. “I still have more than a hundred supporters?”
“Yes, and they really like you. I have already spoken to them.”
“I have already decided that you should be given a gold medal for being my most loyal supporter. You are acting like a mother who is constantly looking out for her daughter. Tell me the truth, are you treating me as though I am your daughter?”
“Just a little bit,” the young paparazzo replied shyly.
“I will knock your head when I see you.”
“I just want you to get famous quickly!” the young paparazzo quickly explained. “You are the smartest woman that I have ever met.”
Jiang Yuning was satisfied with the young paparazzo’s answer and so she replied, “Alright then. I will go and say hi to them right now.”
After that, Jiang Yuning then left a message in her fan club. “Hello everyone! I hope that you are all having a good night.”
Jiang Yuning knew how she should interact with her fans.
The fan club quickly became active and Jiang Yuning finally realized why the young paparazzo said that she had many loyal fans. Those who had joined the fan club really liked her and hoped that she would become a famous actress. However, they also had a lot of advice for her. Jiang Yuning was happy, but she could not help but feel a little upset.
It was only because her reputation was really bad that people could look down on her and insult her in the past.
Very soon, the man who had been busy at work all day suddenly stepped into the villa.
Lu Jingzhi could not help but smile when he saw Jiang Yuning who was smiling so brightly as she sat on the carpet. Some people could brighten up the day without having to do anything at all.
“Second brother, you are finally home!” Jiang Yuning said as she turned her head towards Lu Jingzhi before reaching out her hand to grab him.
Lu Jingzhi picked her up and placed her on the sofa before reminding her, “Do not always sit on the ground. It is too cold.”
“The doctor who has been conditioning my body for me just saw me earlier today. He said that my health is very good and I only need to condition it a little more,” Jiang Yuning said as she put her hands around Lu Jingzhi’s neck. “You have been working the whole day. Did you miss me at all?”
“What if I had not missed you?”
“If you did not miss me…then I will leave home!” Jiang Yuning threatened as she pulled herself closer to Lu Jingzhi. “Have you been drinking?”
“Just a little. I had to socialize.”
“Alright then. I will be working tomorrow and I may not be able to return home tomorrow night. Don’t worry, I will make sure to feed you well tonight.”
Lu Jingzhi stared at Jiang Yuning as she spoke. How could she say those words in such a carefree manner?
He lifted her chin up in his hand as he asked, “And how are you going to…feed me? Huh?”
Jiang Yuning deliberately bit his wine-scented lip gently before whispering, “Like this.”
Was this a provocation?
It seemed like they were going to work extremely hard that night.
…
Early the next morning, Jiang Yuning was woken up by an incoming phone call from Shen Yichen. It was only five o’clock in the morning. In order not to wake Lu Jingzhi up, Jiang Yuning quickly picked up her cell phone and hurriedly rushed into the bathroom to answer the phone call.
“You have twenty minutes to get ready. We will be heading to the boss’ house first because he will be going on a business trip later. I have already requested him to set aside half an hour to meet you.”
“Alright then.” Jiang Yuning quickly ran into the walk-in closet as soon as she heard Shen Yichen’s words.
If she had known better, she would not have courted trouble last night.
Jiang Yuning had already gotten ready within twenty minutes and she quickly left a note for Lu Jingzhi before limping down the stairs.
Shen Yichen was shocked upon seeing her limp. “Have you been fighting?”
“Almost. It was a battle that I could not have won anyway.”
The driver laughed as soon as he heard Jiang Yuning’s words and Shen Yichen finally understood what she meant. “You…you should be more modest. Will you be able to work today?”
“Of course,” Jiang Yuning replied decisively.
“What is it exactly that you want to ask the boss?”
“I want to ask him about some past events,” Jiang Yuning replied with a deep expression on her face. “Since the party involved refuses to tell me anything, then the only person that I can ask is uncle.”
“Is this related to…the second young master?”
Shen Yichen knew the answer to his question when there was no further reply from Jiang Yuning.
