"Bang!"
Lin Jingyu smashed the fine ceramic cup in her hand. She gripped the armrest of the chair, trembling with anger.
"Li Duo actually made Wen Shu accompany him to the Long family's engagement banquet? What does he take me for?!"
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face.
Last night he turned Wen Shu into a prostitute for her sake, but today he brazenly took Wen Shu to such an important occasion.
In such a formal setting, the news wouldn't reach the entertainment industry, but it would allow her to acknowledge her relationship with Li Duo within aristocratic circles.
If he wouldn't let himself go, why did he let Wen Shu go?
Why?
Seeing her heartbroken expression, Zhao Jie reached out and hugged her. "Jingyu, you have to think positively..."
"That Wen Shu, she's slept with him so many times!" Lin Jingyu exclaimed, a little agitated. "Any woman would do, but not her!"
Zhao Jie hurriedly said, "But Jing Yu, last night President Li was willing to let the paparazzi target him in order to protect you, saying that he cares about you."
"He must have his reasons for doing this; you should learn to trust him!"
Lin Jingyu rested her head on Zhao Jie's shoulder, "I can't believe it. I saw them in bed with my own eyes, Li Duo..."
Zhao Jie pursed her lips. "Jing Yu, Li Duo is a man. You can't just stay by his side forever. You have to get past that hurdle eventually. You have to find a way..."
Lin Jingyu froze. "If... if I get repairs now, the media will definitely find out..."
Zhao Jie frowned. "We should have thought of a way when we first went abroad."
Lin Jingyu closed her eyes, "In Li Duo's eyes, I've always been pure. If I were with him... he would know that I was actually... taken advantage of long before I went abroad..."
Zhao Jie reached out and covered her mouth. "Jing Yu, this isn't your fault. Don't mention it again."
Zhao Jie regretted not having her undergo reconstructive surgery when she first went abroad. If she had, Jing Yu wouldn't have had so much to worry about.
Zhao Jie thought for a moment and said, "I'll try to find a reliable person to arrange your surgery as soon as possible!"
Lin Jingyu shook her head frantically: "No! No way! There are no secrets in this world, I can't take the risk!"
When she first went abroad, she thought the same thing, but she was afraid that if people found out, her pure and innocent image would collapse.
Her family didn't want her to be an actress in the first place, and if her parents found out about this, she would definitely be taken back home!
Lin Jingyu covered her mouth in anguish, "What should I do now? My heart aches whenever I think of that woman. Li Duo knows I don't like her, so why does he keep meeting with her?"
Zhao Jie sighed, "Jing Yu, public figures are people too, they have emotions too. Don't worry about that."
"Furthermore, Mr. Li, men are fickle yet passionate creatures. Their infatuation with women often has nothing to do with love."
"You don't need to worry about Li Duo's feelings for that woman. You yourself said that Li Duo wanted you many times, but you refused. Li Duo's respect is the most important thing!"
“He respects your wishes; he means no when you say no, which isn’t something every man can do. But if you refuse too often, it will seem like you’re deliberately being difficult.”
Lin Jingyu looked up: "I want to too, but I..."
"So you can't delay any longer. If you keep dragging it out, Li Duo's patience will probably run out too."
Lin Jingyu slumped down.
Zhao Jie said, "I'll have someone arrange the surgery for you as soon as possible. If you can get together with Li Duo before you join the crew, you don't need to worry about how long it takes for you to join the crew."
“A man like Li Duo, once he takes the virginity of the woman he loves, will never betray you. You have everything Wen Shu has, so why are you worried that she poses any threat to you?”
Lin Jingyu opened her mouth, "But Li Duo is going to an important banquet with her but not me!"
“Jing Yu, Li Duo is not a person without a sense of propriety. Although I don’t know his purpose, he must have his own reasons for doing this.”
"You should try to trust him, don't you think?"
Lin Jingyu slowly sat down. "Really... do I need to have corrective surgery? But the media is watching so closely, I'm scared..."
Zhao Jie comforted her, "What's the use of being afraid? Things still have to be done. You just looked at the contract, and President Li helped you get the role. As long as you deepen your relationship with him, you'll be set for life."
“Jingyu, you just returned to China, and compared to those top-tier actresses, your popularity is much lower. My friend said there's some explosive news about a top actress these days. If your surgery is scheduled for the same time, no one will notice.”
Lin Jingyu was extremely flustered, but she was indeed starting to panic.
She was convinced that Li Duo treated Wen Shu differently, and these differences might be due to their physical intimacy.
But whatever the reason, it made Lin Jingyu feel a sense of crisis.
She couldn't let Li Duo and Wen Shu get any closer, so she had to force herself to undergo the reconstructive surgery.
"good!"
Hospital ward.
There was a computer on the table in front of Li Duo, and he was handling official business.
Clearly, this unexpected turn of events won him many things.
Wen Shu appeared at the door carrying a lunchbox. Li Duo hung up the phone, closed his laptop, and said, "Come in and close the door."
Wen Shu glanced at his legs, closed the door behind her, put the lunchbox on the computer, and looked at him expressionlessly.
Li Duo opened the lunchbox, which contained rice, stir-fried potato slices with meat, and a stir-fried loofah. The rice and vegetables were mixed together, but the portions were very small, making it look unappetizing.
Li Duo looked up at her: "You did this on purpose?"
Wen Shu coldly replied, "This was prepared by your friend who has a leg injury. What's wrong with it?"
