On the other side, Wen Zhaoye couldn't help but smile as he heard about Wen Jiaojiao's solution to the case.
"My little sister has always been very smart."
Li Zhu chuckled and said:
"Yeah, they just don't do their job properly. They solve a case and then expose the boss's secrets in front of all the reporters. I guess no one else does that."
"That must be because he treated my sister badly. Otherwise, my sister is very grateful. Look at this watch he bought for me, it's worth a lot of money, and she probably doesn't have much money at all."
As Wen Zhaoye spoke, he took out the wristwatch that was placed beside his pillow, opened the gift box, and glanced at it.
Li Zhu: "..." You're just going to spoil her. Sooner or later she'll drive the boss crazy.
Before Wen Jiaojiao could even leave for the film set, A Long reached her door. She went out, bag in hand, and said:
"Tell your boss that I'm not going back to live there anymore. Whoever wants to take care of me can take care of me."
Ah Long: "Miss, the master won't allow it."
"Hilarious, isn't it just that they're afraid I'll bring men home to sleep?"
"That's not entirely what I mean. Also, kidnappings and rapes happen here every day. The boss is just worried that something might happen to you."
Wen Jiaojiao paused upon hearing this. She valued her life, but now that she had openly opposed Jiang Peitian, going back would only bring more trouble. She sighed and said:
"Damn it, I haven't enjoyed any good fortune yet, and now I'm constantly on the verge of death. How about this, you can continue to work with me from now on."
“Two fists can’t fight four hands. If the other side has more people, I won’t be able to do anything.” Ah Long said, “Also, I need to rest too. I can’t take care of you 24 hours a day.”
Wen Jiaojiao: "....." It was all for nothing.
Ah Long instructed:
"After you finish your trip to the film set, don't forget that there are people waiting for you at the hospital."
Wen Jiaojiao was furious:
"You're all in cahoots, always keeping an eye out for other men around me, just so you can leave me with him? But don't even think about it, I've already slept with other men. If he cares about that, he can just find someone else."
Ah Long said expressionlessly:
"Well, that has nothing to do with me. I just need to make sure you don't have a man around you right now."
Wen Jiaojiao pursed her lips. She was walking down the street when suddenly, a voice came from behind her:
"Miss Jiang."
Wen Jiaojiao frowned slightly, turned around and saw that it was Li Yu. She stopped and said:
"What's wrong?"
Li Yu's expression was gentle, and his smile was extremely handsome as he said:
Can I treat you to dinner tonight?
Wen Jiaojiao was about to refuse, but before she could speak, A Long stepped forward and said:
"She's someone's got her eye on, I advise you not to go looking for trouble."
"Just because he likes me, does that mean I don't even have the right to have dinner with someone of the opposite sex? I am not anyone's property."
Wen Jiaojiao, with her rebellious spirit, felt particularly uncomfortable upon hearing this. She shoved Ah Long away and deliberately said to him:
"Sure, I have time. Let me finish filming this afternoon's scenes. You got injured last time because of me, so consider this my treat."
Li Yu took out his phone:
"Sure, here's my contact information so we can stay in touch."
Wen Jiaojiao knew he wasn't a good man, but in the entertainment industry, climbing the social ladder for fame and fortune wasn't considered a particularly heinous act.
But she genuinely didn't want to associate with this kind of person. She had only been trying to make Jiang Peitian uncomfortable and to warn A Long to watch his words. She wasn't anyone's possession, and refused.
"No need, 5 pm, this restaurant will do."
As she spoke, she pointed to a shop. Although Li Yu was refused, he still nodded with a raised eyebrow and said:
"Okay, I'll wait for you here beforehand."
Wen Jiaojiao turned and left, coldly snorting at A Long behind her, "What? Trying to save on phone bills today? Not even informing your boss?"
After failing to get through to Wen Zhaoye for a whole day last time, Ah Long, with Li Zhu's guidance, learned that it would be better to report such matters directly to Wen Zhaoye.
However, Wen Zhaoye's voice could not be heard by Wen Jiaojiao. After dropping her off at the film set, he went to a secluded place to make a phone call: "Young Master, Miss is going to have dinner with that actor from last time tonight. She is personally inviting him."
Wen Zhaoye's breath came out thick, heavy gasps, and he angrily threw down the documents in his hand, saying:
Which one?
"Xinlin".
"Tonight, you sit next to them and eat with them. If that man starts saying anything inappropriate or flirtatious, you hit him and teach him a lesson."
"You need to make the call, are you listening?"
"Of course I want it." Wen Zhao finished speaking, then angrily hung up the phone, saying irritably:
"He didn't even offer to treat me to a meal. You heartless bastard! He just looks a little younger than me, what's wrong with me?"
As soon as Zhou Jinyan entered the ward, he heard him muttering to himself. He put down the fruit basket and said:
"What's wrong now?"
Wen Zhaoye sighed:
"Besides her, who else could make me this angry?"
Zhou Jinyan: "I'm telling you, you're just stubborn. Look at Song Yan, she came to Gangcheng for you. So many girls in the county and the factory were good to you before, but you just like the one you can't have."
Wen Zhaoye lay back down on the bed, the image of Wen Jiaojiao playing the piano, her aloof and noble demeanor, lingering in his mind. He murmured:
“My beloved sister is far superior to them.”
Zhou Jinyan joked:
"So what if you can play a few musical instruments? The guy in the village who could play the suona used to have a crush on you, but I've never seen you so infatuated."
Wen Zhaoye said decisively:
"roll."
Zhou Jinyan brought up the important matter and said:
"By the way, Zhou Jin wants you to arrange a secretary or clerk for Song Yan."
