Lu Mingyan received a call from Jiang Tian in the middle of the night, who insisted that he go to the Jiang family. He knew then that something bad was about to happen.

When he arrived, he found the atmosphere at the Jiang family's house to be unexpectedly heavy, and everyone's expression was not good.

Jiang Hanyan was the most excited. She went up and grabbed Lu Mingyan's clothes, looking up at him: "Jiang Tian said you've fallen for her, is that true or false?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? I should be the one asking that. Lu Mingyan, why don't you talk to them and tell them that you've fallen for me? They're still up to no good and want me to put in a good word for you so you can marry Jiang Hanyan. But you've already fallen for someone else. Wouldn't marrying her be harming her?"

"She's a big star, not some nobody. If you end up with a reputation for seducing and then abandoning her, that would be terrible."

Jiang Tian spoke casually, but got straight to the point.

Public opinion is very important in the Internet age, and every company attaches great importance to maintaining the group's public image.

If the Lu family gets caught in a media storm because of Jiang Hanyan, Lu Mingyan will definitely be in deep trouble.

He had worked so hard to get close to becoming the heir, how could he possibly let all his efforts go to waste for a woman?

He stared at Jiang Tian for a while, then nodded: "Yes. Aunt, Uncle, I was wrong. I shouldn't have fallen for someone else. In fact, if my feelings for Han Yan hadn't been a problem, we would have gotten married long ago after all these years of getting to know each other. Actually, I've wanted to break up with her for a long time."

Jiang Hanyan's eyes widened; she couldn't believe Lu Mingyan was telling the truth!

She hadn't been this devastated even when she was at the Lu family's house!

She screamed, "What are you saying? We've been together for so many years, and you're saying I have no feelings for you?!"

It must be said that the environment can significantly influence a person.

In the Jiang family, Jiang Hanyan was the object of everyone's pampering, and at this moment she had no intelligence at all.

Her loud and disruptive behavior tarnished her former image as a movie queen.

A flash of disgust crossed Lu Mingyan's eyes.

He had long realized that Jiang Hanyan's gentleness was just a facade. Judging from how she bossed her assistant around, he knew that she didn't have a good temper.

But he had never seen Jiang Hanyan act so willful, capricious, and hysterical before.

His initial, mild feelings for her vanished instantly.

Lu Mingyan became more rational and spoke slowly and deliberately: "I was nice to you before because of our engagement. Later, I lost all feelings for you, didn't you realize that? If I liked you, why would I let my secretary handle everything and never take care of anything myself?"

Jiang Hanyan looked bewildered.

Her spirits plummeted.

Yes, if you love someone, how could you not even choose your own birthday gift, but instead have your secretary pick it out and send it over?

Lu Mingyan never mistreated Jiang Hanyan materially, but whether their feelings for each other were adequate was another matter entirely.

Actually, he was quite good at maintaining appearances and would occasionally support Jiang Hanyan. In the eyes of outsiders, he was a perfect man, one in a million.

Because of these factors, Jiang Hanyan kept convincing herself that this man had feelings for her.

At the same time, she believed that her position was very secure and that no one could make Lu Mingyan give up her, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family.

But she forgot one thing: Lu Mingyan's grandfather was not someone to be trifled with.

Whether Lu Mingyan likes Jiang Tian or not is not the most important thing.

Under Lu Mingyan's gaze, Jiang Hanyan realized that she was no longer of any use, so Lu Mingyan had abandoned her.
