Mr. and Mrs. Wen exchanged a glance, their shock lingering.
Wen Yi didn't pay much attention to her parents' and Wen Ge's reactions at the dinner table. She quickly finished her meal and then gave Wen Ge some instructions.
"I'm going upstairs to change my clothes, you should get ready too."
Wen Yi left his seat.
There was silence at the dining table for nearly five or six minutes before Wen's father looked at Wen Ge.
"Wen Yi knows the CEO of ES? She paved the way for you to sign with ES?"
"Dad, my sister's explanation is rather simple. This matter is quite complicated. I'll explain in detail after I resolve this issue," Wen Ge said with a forced smile.
Mr. Wen frowned, “But…”
"Alright, the important thing now isn't who knows the CEO of ES, but that Wen Ge's matter must be resolved. Even if Wen Ge leaves the entertainment industry, she can't leave with such a reputation," Wen's mother instructed.
“I’ll handle this with my sister.” Wen Ge stood up. “I’ll go change my clothes first. Mom and Dad, please eat slowly.”
Wen Ge left the restaurant and quickly went upstairs. The smile on her face disappeared, and her expression became extremely serious. Her delicate little hands clenched into fists.
...
Wen Yi took Wen Ge to Lin Manqing's house, but they didn't ride in the Wen family's car. Instead, the ES CEO sent a driver to pick them up.
When the Wen family parents saw the two sisters off, the driver made a point of identifying himself and greeting them before putting them in the car.
As Wen got into the car and left, she glanced at her parents' expressions as they stood at the door.
That shocked and incredulous expression remained etched in Wen Yi's mind.
“Sister…” Wen Ge looked at Wen Yi, hesitating to speak.
Wen looked at her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wen Ge opened her mouth, then shook her head, looking out the window, her heart heavy with gloom, as if blocked.
Wen Yi didn't say anything, but she understood that Wen Ge was feeling bad.
When Wen Yi came back yesterday, even though Wen Ge was anxious to ask Wen Yi for help, she restrained herself in front of her parents.
Then she ran to Wen Yi's room alone and begged Wen Yi, without her parents knowing.
In the past, Wen Yi would have taken it lightly and solved it, but in the end, her parents thought that Wen Ge had solved the problem on her own and would never know that Wen Yi had put in the effort behind the scenes, so they felt that Wen Yi was a very useless person.
Now, Wen Yi has laid out all of Wen Ge's requests to hide her, clearly telling her parents that not only does Wen Yi have to resolve this matter, but also that when her parents proudly boasted to people in the industry that Wen Ge had only wanted to enter the entertainment industry on a whim, the top film and television company ES had signed Wen Ge and even wanted ES's top actress to play a supporting role for Wen Ge, all of this was arranged by Wen Yi.
Wen Yi slightly raised her chin and looked straight ahead.
Twenty minutes later, the car arrived at Lanyue Garden and drove without any gate access to Lin Manqing's villa.
The villa gates opened, and the villa's servants were already there to greet them.
"Miss Wenyi, Miss Manqing is already waiting for you in the reception room," the maid said respectfully.
Wen nodded and led Wen Ge inside.
Lin Manqing, dressed in a red halter top, sat on the sofa, elegantly crossing her legs, and looked at Wen Yi and Wen Ge with an arrogant gaze.
Wen Ge looked at Lin Manqing with some fear and subconsciously hid next to Wen Yi.
Wen Yi glanced at Wen Ge, "Wen Ge, go apologize."
Wen Ge glanced at Wen Yi, then at Lin Manqing sitting on the sofa, and hesitated.
Lin Manqing looked away, took out a cigarette from her bag, lit it, and said, "I'll only give you five minutes."
"Wen Ge," Wen Yi reminded her.
Wen Ge took a deep breath, silently clenched her fists, and walked towards Lin Manqing.
She stood to the side, bowed her head to Lin Manqing, and said, "Sister Manqing, I was ignorant before and made you unhappy. I sincerely apologize to you here. I hope you will be magnanimous and not hold it against me, a newcomer. In the future, I will definitely follow the rules and listen carefully to Sister Manqing's teachings, and take steady steps forward."
Wen Ge's apology was sincere and beautiful. She looked up at Lin Manqing, whose eyes were red, but whose expression was very sincere, which, combined with her gentle and delicate appearance, made her stand out.
She looked like a pitiful little thing who had suffered all sorts of injustices.
But Lin Manqing is not the kind of person who would feel sorry for a poor little thing.
With a cigarette dangling from his lips, he stared at Wen Ge with interest, chuckling as he tossed out a line, "Little white flower, what tricks are you up to this time?"
"I...I didn't." Wen Ge pursed her lips, looking like she was about to cry, both aggrieved and pitiful.
She took a deep breath and said, "I was ignorant before. I shouldn't have listened to people who said that as long as I posted my wronged state online, I could get some traffic. I'm sorry, Sister Manqing. I was too young and couldn't distinguish right from wrong."
"Oh, you mean someone taught you before?" Lin Manqing looked up at Wen Yifang.
Wen Yi, with a calm expression, stepped forward, pressed Wen Ge's head down, and kicked her knee, causing Wen Ge to kneel down.
“Sister…” Wen Ge was shocked.
Wen Yi took the tea from the side and placed it in Wen Ge's hand. "Wen Ge, when you apologize, you should apologize properly. Your words should be sincere."
Wen Ge stared at Wen Yi in disbelief, tears welling up in her eyes, gripping her teacup tightly.
“Miss Manqing, the CEO of ES said he will arrive in ten minutes. He reiterated that Miss Wenyi must be present.” The maid stepped forward to report.
Upon hearing this, Wen Ge gripped the teacup even tighter, and with a determined air, turned to face Lin Manqing and served her tea.
"Sister Manqing, please give me a chance."
Lin Manqing chuckled, stubbed out her cigarette in the ashtray, and leaned closer to Wen Ge, her neckline wide open, revealing a glimpse of her alluring figure.
But she is sexy and confident, and her posture is both alluring and beautiful.
Lin Manqing said, "Little White Flower, remember this lesson from kneeling, and don't be so foolish in the future."
