On the other end of the line, Lu Rou did not expect the call to go through. She had not been able to get through to Jiang Fei these past few days. No matter how she thought about it, she could not understand the reason. In the end, she could only comfort herself in her heart. Perhaps Jiang Fei was really too busy.
After hearing Jiang Fei’s muffled “Hello”, Lu Rou hurriedly pinched her throat and called out obediently, “Uncle Jiang.”
Jiang Fei endured the disgust and anger in his heart and said, “What’s the matter?”
Lu Rou felt that Jiang Fei’s tone was much colder than before. Could it be that her phone calls and text messages over the past few days had made Jiang Fei impatient? But she was his daughter! How could he be impatient with his daughter? Lu Rou was a little dissatisfied.
Wait, could it be that Jiang Fei had more than one child? This thought suddenly appeared in Lu Rou’s mind. Although the media had never reported on Jiang Fei’s scandals and other relationships, what if Jiang Fei had other lovers or illegitimate children?
Lu Rou felt a little flustered and uneasy. She didn’t even dare to say what would happen next. She bit her lip and finally said timidly and helplessly, “Uncle Jiang, it’s like this. I’ve encountered some trouble recently. I don’t dare to tell my father. Can you help me?”
Trouble? Jiang Fei frowned. What trouble could Lu Rou encounter? After a moment of silence, Jiang Fei said, “Speak clearly.”
Lu Rou took a deep breath and said, “It’s like this. There’s a male celebrity in the entertainment industry. His character is very bad. After doing something bad, he wants to push the blame to me. Uncle Jiang, you know that I’m stupid and timid. I really don’t know what to do when I encounter such a thing.” As Lu Rou spoke, she squeezed her vocal cords and sobbed twice.
Jiang Fei listened and did not say a word. He did not take the initiative to ask the male celebrity’s name.
Seeing that Jiang Fei had no reaction, Lu Rou could not continue acting. She guessed that Jiang Fei probably didn’t pay much attention to the entertainment industry, so he didn’t see the news these two days. She could only brace herself and continue, “That male celebrity’s name is Du Wei. Uncle Jiang, he even sent me a threatening message two hours ago. I’m really afraid…
Du Wei? Jiang Fei narrowed his eyes. Wasn’t this the male celebrity who framed Ningning? How did that male celebrity get involved with Lu Rou? Why did he threaten Lu Rou?
Jiang Fei was a little confused at first, but he quickly understood. Why would Du Wei threaten Lu Rou for no reason? Could it be that Lu Rou was also involved in Du Wei framing Lu Zhen?
At the thought of this, Jiang Fei frowned tightly. He sat up straight on the sofa, his eyes burning with anger. He took two deep breaths. After calming down, he tried his best to ask in a calm tone, “Is there any relationship dispute between you and Du Wei?”
Lu Rou hurriedly explained, “How is that possible!” She blinked and suddenly thought of an excuse. She immediately said, “Uncle Jiang, that Du Wei wanted to hype up a scandal with a female celebrity two days ago, but the other party was unwilling. Do you think he wants to drag me down with him? Oh my god, that must be the case! Uncle Jiang, my reputation in the entertainment industry is very good. I’ve never had a scandal with a man. This Du Wei is too sinister and vicious, right?”
When Jiang Fei heard Lu Rou’s fake and pretentious words, a layer of frost seemed to condense between his eyebrows. He forcefully resisted the urge to hang up. Seeing that Jiang Fei did not speak, Lu Rou urged, “Uncle Jiang, let that detestable fellow stop finding trouble with me. This shouldn’t be difficult for you, right?”
Jiang Fei pondered for a while and said coldly, “It’s not difficult. I’ll go and find out more about the situation. I’ll contact you then.”
He did not agree to Lu Rou’s request directly, but in Lu Rou’s opinion, Jiang Fei’s words meant that he was willing to help!
Although Jiang Fei’s attitude was average, she was his daughter after all. He would indeed help her. Lu Rou felt relieved and her tone became much more relaxed. She immediately said, “Thank you, Uncle Jiang! Shall I treat you to a meal another day?”
During dinner, she could suggest moving into that house in the city center and see if she could ask for other expensive gifts. Lu Rou imagined the beautiful life of the future Best Actor’s daughter and smiled expectantly..
