“Xiao Fei, you…”
“Do you know how much humiliation I have suffered throughout the whole day and night that we were recording this issue? Did you know that the production team was only using me as a decoy to showcase Jiang Yuning’s brilliance and intelligence? How could they compare me to someone like Jiang Yuning? Does she deserve it? I really hate her! I hate Jiang Yuning so much. Every breath in my body is just dying to get rid of her!” Ling Fei yelled as she lost her temper in the car.
“But…I am afraid that we might not be able to intervene with the variety show. Why don’t you ask young master Bai for help? Young master Bai might know someone who could intervene with this matter on your behalf,” the agent advised Ling Fei immediately.
Ling Fei had always liked Xiao Chennan but he had always been unresponsive towards her advances.
However, Ling Fei had a fuerdai whom she constantly used as her back up plan. Whenever Ling Fei felt upset or miserable because Xiao Chennan ignored her or was not responsive at all, she would look for young master Bai to seek some affection and comfort.
“Ask him to help me. I will never allow this episode be broadcasted to the audience. It is even better if you can ask him to make <Desert Island Rescue> disappear completely from now on.”
“Don’t be so angry anymore. I will contact young master Bai as soon as we get back to Luo City,” the agent quickly appeased Ling Fei.
“How can I not be angry? It’s even better if he can help me to rob Jiang Yuning of the role of the first female lead in <Nameless Orphan>.”
…
What was the point of her getting angry and annoyed when she had already destroyed her own reputation when she was filming the program?
In the other variety show, the entire production team had always regarded her as a top priority and that was why no one dared to expose her or be mean to her even thought they knew that Ling Fei was a fake and difficult person. They had to praise her all the time and boast about what a beautiful and lucky person she was. However, the cast and crew of <Desert Island Rescue> was completely different.
Therefore, on the way back to Luo City, the other participants were gossiping about Ling Fei after they got on the bus.
“I used to think that she was very amazing and cool when I watched some of the variety show that she was in. Sure enough, everything is just a façade in the entertainment industry.”
“Brother Zhuang, it is not fair for you to say that. I think that this varies from person to person. Just take a look at Sister Yuning and myself,” Jin Mingchen pouted immediately. “Sister Yuning has always been very consistent with her words and actions. She has never pretended to be someone that she is not.”
“Alright then, I admit my mistake,” Brother Zhuang said as he made a gesture of slapping himself on the face. “But Ling Fei has a really disgusting personality! I don’t know how someone like her could have so many fans and followers.”
“That can’t be helped. She has someone backing her up and that person is willing to spend lots of money just to make sure that she is still at the top of the entertainment industry. Everyone around her is always putting her high up on the pedestal. That is why I have a feeling that she does not even know how annoying she really is. This is probably the worst thing about being in the entertainment industry.” At this time, Xu Beishen suddenly voiced out her opinion objectively.
“But there are also many good people in the entertainment circle. Although I might be a little too troublesome, I have a good sense of what is right and wrong, at least.”
“Yes, yes, okay,” Xu Beishen quickly patted Jin Mingchen on his head. “I am not talking about you.”
“However, Sister Beishen, I have to admit that what you said earlier is indeed the status quo of the entertainment industry. People like Ling Fei would always hate people like us and then use despicable means to get rid of us.”
Jin Mingchen had already seen his fair share of drama in the entertainment circle.
“I don’t care about what people think about me but I really feel that there will be a huge competition between Ling Fei and Sister Yuning. Both of them are very attractive and young actresses who are gaining extreme popularity in the entertainment industry at the moment. I have heard that Ling Fei’s team is very efficient in their business marketing. I am scared that Sister Yuning would be at a disadvantage.”
At a disadvantage?
Even if Ling Fei successfully ascended to heaven, Lu Jingzhi would be able to drag her down with just a snap of his fingers.
Therefore, Xu Beishen just smiled before she replied softly, “Don’t worry so much about it. Your Sister Yuning is such an intelligent person. Don’t you trust that she would be able to deal with someone like Ling Fei?”
“I know that Sister Yuning is very smart and capable, but I have already heard of many disgusting stories about Ling Fei’s agent.”
No matter how despicable or disgusting Ling Fei and her agent were, they were nothing more than ants to Lu Jingzhi.
…
After driving for many hours, Vera finally drove Jiang Yuning back to the Royal Dragon Villa at eight o’clock at night.
As Jiang Yuning was still sleeping soundly at this time, Vera did not want to wake her up from her sleep. Therefore, she walked to the front door and started knocking to see if Lu Jingzhi was home at this time.
As soon as he opened the door, Vera saw that Lu Jingzhi had just gotten home a while ago and he was wearing a clean white shirt. However, as soon as he heard Vera’s words, he quickly put down the military newspapers that he had in his hand and rushed out to the company car that was parked outside the front door.
Jiang Yuning was still deep in sleep and her breathing was even at this time. She was dirty and messy and even her face was still stained with dirt.
Even so, second young master Lu, who was usually obsessed about cleanliness, did not hesitate at all as he carried his wife out of the car.
“Don’t leave in a hurry. Help me call the doctor here first.”
“She’s just exhausted. She’ll be fine after…I got it.” Vera wanted to tell him that Jiang Yuning was safe and sound but the look that Lu Jingzhi gave her was just too scary that she could not simply just ignore it.
Therefore, Vera made a phone call to the doctor to come over immediately.
Lu Jingzhi carried Jiang Yuning up to their bedroom before he quickly grabbed a towel from the bathroom to wipe the dirt off his wife’s beautiful face.
However, Jiang Yuning did not wake up.
She opened her eyes slightly and when she saw Lu Jingzhi’s sweet and beautiful smile, she closed her eyes and fell asleep again. She slept all the way till it was already eleven o’clock at night.
During that time, the doctor had already dropped by to give her a body check up and Lu Jingzhi had already helped her shower, but she had slept through everything. When Jiang Yuning finally woke up, she realized that she was already feeling clean and refreshed as she slept in the comforts of her own bed.
Where was second brother?
Jiang Yuning looked around everywhere and she finally found Lu Jingzhi sitting on the sofa in the living room as he went through the document in his hand.
Jiang Yuning walked down the stairs quietly before she sat down on the sofa next to Lu Jingzhi. She then acted coquettishly and rested her head on Lu Jingzhi’s lap before she asked, “Second brother…don’t you miss me at all?”
“No, I did not miss you,” Lu Jingzhi replied as he pushed Jiang Yuning’s head away.
Jiang Yuning did not believe his words and so she rested her head on Lu Jingzhi’s lap once again before she looked up at him and asked in a cute manner, “Am I not your precious darling anymore?”
Every time she came back so exhausted and worn out, Lu Jingzhi would feel so depressed because his heart would ache when he saw her in this state.
Lu Jingzhi did not reply but he merely placed his hand on Jiang Yuning’s forehead as he stroked her gently.
“Even if you did not miss me…I missed you so much when I was gone. Every time I go to new places or whenever I am in for a thrilling adventure, I have always wished that you were the person by my side at that moment. I want to be able to see your face every time I open my eyes. Second brother…I was just watching videos of you before I fell asleep in the car.”
Lu Jingzhi could not help but give in when he heard Jiang Yuning’s words.
He looked at her before he lowered his head and started kissing her on the lips.
Just like this, Jiang Yuning knew that Lu Jingzhi was no longer angry and upset with her. She quickly sat up before she placed her arms around Lu Jingzhi’s neck and hung tightly onto him.
“Are you trying to take advantage of the situation now?” Lu Jingzhi asked as he placed his arms around her waist and hugged her.
“Second brother…you are the worst. You are just saying that you do not miss me so that I will take the initiative to come closer to you and say many sweet nothings to you. So, it would be best if…we can kiss for at least another ten minutes!”
As soon as Lu Jingzhi heard Jiang Yuning’s words, he hugged her even more tightly in his arms before he asked, “Are you sure that is all I want?”
“And…” Jiang Yuning pulled Lu Jingzhi closer to her before she whispered in his ears. “After, you can do anything that you want to me…”
“How should I do that?” Lu Jingzhi asked as he continued staring at Jiang Yuning.
“Like this…”
After entering the bedroom door, both of them were completely inseparable…
At this time, it was already clear how much they had missed and longed for each other.
