However, he would not admit defeat so easily.
He would definitely let Huo Yuxi experience what it felt like to be played like a fool.
…
Later that evening, Huo Yuxi, who had already been criticized and insulted by netizens all over the internet, returned to the mountain villa as though nothing had happened.
Fu Yahui was in disbelief as soon as she saw Huo Yuxi entering her living room. “Are you kidding me? Do you still have the guts to come and face me? You had better get out of my house right now.”
“Mommy, no matter what has happened today, you are still my stepmother and I will always be your legal stepdaughter. Therefore, it is only natural for me to live here with you, aside from the fact that dad has already given me his approval to continue living here. Anyway, I will be recuperating at home for the next few days but once I feel well enough, I will be starting work at Dongheng Enterprise. Dad said that he has already arranged a position for me in the company. I am just informing you right now, lest you be surprised.”
Huo Yuxi walked upstairs and went into her bedroom after that, acting as though nothing had happened.
“Is it still bitter?”
Jiang Yuning quickly shook her head before replying, “No, it is sweet.”
“Your mouth is sweet,” Lu Jingzhi said as he put down the cup of water and helped Jiang Yuning lie back down in bed.
“The sweetness is in my heart. If this is the way that you are going to feed me medicine every single time, then I guess…I will willingly take it every time.”
“You can dream on,” Lu Jingzhi said as he covered the quilt over her before lying down beside her. He then caressed her forehead gently so that she could go to sleep without any worries.
It was the first time that Jiang Yuning ever thought that falling sick was not such a bad thing. She fell asleep thinking about how great it would be if she could do it just one more time…
Jiang Yuning woke up early the next morning but she had to stay at home and rest for the whole day under the supervision of Sister Liang.
Later in the evening, Shen Yichen called Jiang Yuning to check up on her and to inform and prepare her for the upcoming news. “Guangying Media will be announcing the cast of <Backlight> tomorrow. Therefore, you should be prepared for some criticisms to be headed your way as soon as we make the announcement.”
“You do not need to remind me anymore. I am already prepared for it,” Jiang Yuning replied immediately.
In fact, she had managed to get a role in <Backlight> based on her own ability and that was the reason why Guangying Media had offered her an employment contract. However, she knew that the public and netizens would definitely have thought that she had obtained a role in the drama production solely due to her employment with Guangying Media. They would definitely be under the impression that Guangying Media was only awarding the role to her because they wanted to clean up her reputation for her, now that she was now one of their artistes.
Fortunately, she was not the lead female character in the drama.
Therefore, the criticisms that she may have received would probably be lesser.
“I still have another piece of good news. <Theory of Tea> will begin broadcasting tonight. We are unexpectedly anticipating a high number of viewers for this program because of the recent focus that the government has placed on cultural and traditional values.”
