Sweetest Top Actress in My Home

However, Jiang Yuning did it for her regardless of the consequences.

 “Sister Vera, you might think that Sister Yuning is acting foolishly but she is in fact the smartest one here. She only did this so the female fans will get bored after scolding her and venting their frustrations for a few days. Things will pass by quickly then. So, you really do not need to feel so guilty at all,” the young paparazzo continued assuring Vera in the same manner that Jiang Yuning would have.

 However, Vera insisted on leaving anyway.

 “Sister Vera, just let Sister Yuning protect and defend you this time. If you leave now, all her efforts would have been in vain. You are not wrong for falling in love. It is only a little more complicated because you are in love with the film emperor.”

 Vera held back her tears as the young paparazzo spoke. As Jiang Yuning had already predicted, the netizens were in fact attacking the weakest and most inferior part of Vera’s heart right now.

 However, after learning of the sacrifices that Jiang Yuning had made for her, Vera realized that she did not have to be held back by her own weakness.

 …

 “I will remember what she has done for us and I promise that I will repay her for her kindness one day. Vera, can you please not alienate me?”

 Vera finally turned around to face Xiao Chennan. When Xiao Chennan rejected Ling Fei in the past, he looked so impressive and confident but at this moment right now, he looked so broken and fragile in front of Vera.

“Why are you so silly? You already know the influence that publicity has on you, so why did you react so impulsively? Didn’t you think of the consequences of your actions? Don’t you care about your resources, collaborations, and endorsements anymore? I don’t want you to throw away the career that you took so long to build just because of me,” Vera said as she choked while trying to hold back her tears.

 “What else can I do? You are too important to me…I believe that Yuning feels the same way too.”

 Vera finally burst into tears after Xiao Chennan’s last sentence.

 “I have a very low self-esteem and that means that I have to be very selfish in order to protect myself. I do not have anything that I can offer to you. Do you understand what I am saying?”

 Xiao Chennan pulled Vera towards him and hugged her tightly in his arms as he comforted her. “I understand what you are feeling and I do not have any regrets at all. I am happy and content as long as I know that you are okay and that you will continue to stay by my side. I am not afraid of any difficulties that come my way.”

 “So, can you just trust me?”

 “I trust you. You had better remove your wet coat now or else you are going to fall sick. You could have just told me all this over the phone. Why did you come all the way to Luo City just to see me? What would Director Mong think of you now?”

 “I was afraid that you would run away.”

 Vera finally laughed in a helpless manner after listening to Xiao Chennan’s pitiful voice. “Do you really perceive me as such a weak person in your heart? If you can protect me so desperately, then I will also become stronger for your sake. So, you don’t have to worry that I will run away or back down just because of these insults and criticism. If I decided to leave you now, then wouldn’t I have suffered in vain?”

Xiao Chennan took off his jacket obediently and he continued hugging Vera tightly.

 They continued talking to one another before Xiao Chennan finally spoke up, “Vera, I will leave first. I have to return to the filming set early in the morning tomorrow. Don’t worry too much, okay?”

 “I am not worried,” Vera replied as she smiled. “Actually, you can just stay over tonight.”

 Xiao Chennan shook his head before he replied, “I will stay over next time. I have to go back to the company for a meeting tonight.”

 Vera did not force Xiao Chennan to stay because she knew that his career would be greatly affected because of his public declaration of his relationship with her.

 Therefore, she sent Xiao Chennan off late in the middle of the night. However, she did not know that Xiao Chennan had secretly done something for her while he was waiting for her earlier.
