“Whatever happened between us is our own private matter between the three of us. Jiang Yuning, why are you trying to make a big issue out of this? You know that this would not be good for any one of us. Don’t you know of my identity now? My mother is the deputy director of Dongheng Enterprise. If you still want to live, then don’t create a scene in front of us.” Huo Yuxi was full of rage and anger as soon as she saw Jiang Yuning.
Why was Jiang Yuning appearing everywhere that she went? This little shrewd woman really thought that she had the ability to go against her.
“What if I insist?”
Huo Yuxi was infuriated by Jiang Yuning’s reply and raised her hand to teach Jiang Yuning a lesson. “I will teach you some manners today.”
However—
Before Huo Yuxi’s hand could reach Jiang Yuning, Fu Yahui had already reached out her hand and held tightly onto Huo Yuxi’s wrist. “Who are you going to teach some manners to?”
“Mommy, I just want to teach this shrewd woman a lesson. She is really annoying,” Huo Yuxi said as she looked at Jiang Yuning disgustedly. “I will tear her mouth apart today.”
Fu Yahui took this opportunity to let go of Huo Yuxi’s wrist and then turned around to give Huo Yuxi a slap across her face.
“Mommy…” Huo Yuxi exclaimed in shock as she stared at Fu Yahui.
“Listen carefully, Huo Yuxi. You are just my stepdaughter but Jiang Yuning is my one and only biological daughter. Do you understand now?”
As soon as Fu Yahui spoke, everyone present was shocked beyond words, especially Huo Yuxi who could not believe what she had just heard.
“Mommy, are you kidding me? How can Jiang Yuning be your daughter? She—” Huo Yuxi said as she carefully observed Jiang Yuning and Fu Yahui’s appearances. After that, she subconsciously stepped back when she realized what was going on. “This is not possible…how could this be possible?”
“Nothing is impossible. Yesterday, you were already using your relationship with me to create a hype on the internet and I have already chosen not to use that against you. However, I cannot believe that you are once again recruiting reporters today to do the same thing again. Who do you think you are fooling with that act?” Fu Yahui said as she stood defensively in front of Jiang Yuning. “Huo Yuxi, you are such a disappointment.”
All the reporters present at the scene did not expect such a big turn of event.
The reporters who were arranged by Millennium Entertainment were in a spot because they did not know if they should continue shooting or if they should stop. Either way, Huo Yuxi would not be portrayed in good light.
As soon as Fu Yahui thought of the hot search that was going on like wildfire on the internet yesterday, she got even more infuriated. She grabbed hold of Jiang Yuning’s hand and pulled her out of the cafe together with her, leaving Huo Yuxi behind to deal with the media.
Huo Yuxi stood motionless in the cafe. Her mind was blank as she was unable to fully comprehend the scene that had just unfolded before her.
“How… how could that be? Jiang Yuning… that shrewd woman.”
“So, what do we do now? Should we continue filming?” The reporters present at the scene turned around to look at one another but did not know what to do. However, one of the employees working at the cafe had already filmed the entire scene on his phone and had immediately uploaded it to his own circle of friends.
“Oh my god. This is too big a drama. There’s too much drama going on with this top actress!”
The young paparazzo hid in a corner with a smile on his face as he continued shooting to get the latest update for Jiang Yuning. This time, he would be able to get another autograph from Jiang Yuning again.
Jiang Yuning was sitting in Fu Yahui’s car that was parked downstairs and the both of them did not leave immediately.
“So, where do you live now?” Fu Yahui suddenly asked as she placed her hand on the steering wheel.
Although she was afraid that Jiang Yuning would say something that she was not supposed to the media earlier, however her instinct of protecting her own child was still there. When it came to defending her own child, she would definitely choose her own biological daughter over her stepdaughter.
“I am living in a friend’s house now. I also drove over here,” Jiang Yuning replied softly.
“Just wait a while until I have settled down, then I will pave the way for you. When that time comes, you can also move in with me.”
“No need,” Jiang Yuning quickly replied as she waved her hands. “I will just continue living with my friend. I am afraid that if I move in with you, it would only bring you more trouble and criticism.”
Compared to Huo Yuxi’s unreasonableness, Jiang Yuning seemed to be extremely sensible.
Fu Yahui reluctantly patted her daughter’s head like she used to do in the past. “You are really a good child.”
“Then I will get out the car now,” Jiang Yuning said as she turned around and pushed the door open. As soon as Fu Yahui nodded her head, Jiang Yuning stepped out of the car and left.
As Fu Yahui drove her car away, she felt that she was once again in a bad mood today because of Huo Yuxi.
…
The internet was soon covered with news that the story that Huo Yuxi had come up with yesterday about her relationship with her mother was once again a lie. She was merely the stepdaughter of Ms. Ava and nothing more than that.
More importantly, Jiang Yuning who had been looked down on by all of Hui Yuxi’s fans, was in actual fact the biological daughter of Ms. Ava.
Just yesterday, Huo Yuxi’s fans had successfully lifted her to the sky and trampled all over Jiang Yuning. Huo Yuxi’s fans were indeed very capable.
“Her biological daughter did not even stoop that low to expose her relationship just to gain more fame, but the stepdaughter really outdid herself this time.”
“It turned out that the person who is really low-key and down to earth is in fact Jiang Yuning.”
“The hot search that had been bought for the top actress by the agency was a bad move indeed. It turned back against them and now they are the joke of the day.”
Millennium Entertainment would never have expected this. Yesterday, Huo Yuxi was finally cleared of her scandal because of the news that she had led a low-key life, but now she was once again defeated by Jiang Yuning.
Huo Yuxi’s agent did not believe that all this was a mere coincidence. He began to reflect on the matter and he felt that something was amiss. Huo Yuxi did not even know that Fu Yahui was going out to meet someone. So, how did the paparazzo get hold of the information?
He felt that this must have been a trap that was set up by the other party. He should have confirmed the source of the information before acting on it.
Huo Yuxi suddenly became a joke on the internet. She was ridiculed even more than she was when she was involved with the scandal involving Lu Zongye.
She never would have expected that Jiang Yuning would turn out to be her stepmother’s biological daughter. She knew that she would never be able to change this fact no matter what she did.
That shrewd woman, Jiang Yuning. Why was she constantly trying to snatch everything from her?
The more she thought about it, the more Huo Yuxi’s stomach churned. She did not know why all this was happening to her recently. She could not contact Lu Zongye and now, her stepmother turned out to be her enemy’s biological mother. Huo Yuxi felt as though she was going insane.
…
Jiang Yuning was extremely happy when she saw the news today.
Even the annoying moist air did not even bother her that much anymore.
Jiang Yuning did not care whether it was Huo Yuxi or Fu Yahui but she just wanted them to pay the price because she could not forget all the pain and suffering that she had experienced and endured for the past five years.
Huo Yuxi was evil, just like Lu Zongye. She always wanted to destroy other people’s lives and she treated everyone else like they were toys to her that she could play around with. Therefore, Jiang Yuning wanted Huo Yuxi to know what it felt like to be toyed around with.
As for Fu Yahui, Jiang Yuning knew that if Huo Yuxi was not involved in this situation, it would be impossible for Fu Yahui to come forward and confess that she had a daughter. This would ultimately lead to her revealing that she had abandoned her family and daughter in the past and ran away with another man.
At the same time, Jiang Yuning felt disgusted with herself.
As she thought about it, Jiang Yuning sat in the car and sent a text message to Lu Jingzhi. “Where is your dinner? Should I come and pick you up?”
Lu Jingzhi’s expression was straight at the dinner as he shared a couple of drinks with his friends. However, his expression softened as soon as he saw the text message from Jiang Yuning.
“Hilton Hotel. I will be done at around ten o’clock.”
“Got it.” Jiang Yuning put her cell phone away and then started driving.
“Jingzhi, did you just smile? I have known you for so many years already, but that is the first time that I have seen you smiling.” The guy sitting next to Lu Jingzhi was extremely fascinated and he quickly grabbed hold of Lu Jingzhi’s shoulder. “So, were you smiling just now?”
“I think that you have already drank too much,” Lu Jingzhi quickly responded to his friend.
“I know that you have a woman in your heart, and that is why you rejected my sister when she confessed her love to you. As your bro, I advise you to make a plan and go for it as soon as you can. As children of businessmen, we are all victims of political and business plans.”
Lu Jingzhi listened but did not make any remarks because his friend had recently gotten married and it was a very sensational marriage.
“At least you know that my sister comes from a good background, right?” The other party kept trying to promote his own sister.
