Jiang Hongmin seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then gently stroked Meng Yao's hair with gentle force: "Yaoyao, are you happy?"
This time it was Meng Yao's turn to be stunned. She then smiled and said, "I'm quite happy."
Jiang Hongmin sighed. She knew that Meng Qingqing had been frequently against Meng Yao recently, causing Meng Yao a lot of trouble.
And the capital that Meng Qingqing relies on must be Rong Zhen...
Her hands suddenly felt weak, and Jiang Hongmin looked down to find that she had accidentally pulled out a strand of Meng Yao's hair. She felt so distressed that she immediately held her in her arms and coaxed her gently like she did when she was a child.
Meng Yao didn't say it hurt, but just looked at her: "Do you have anything to say to me?"
It was still the same question, and Jiang Hongmin suddenly felt like she was being seen through.
She frowned and remained silent, not knowing how long she had been thinking: "Nothing."
"After living for so many years, I just hope that you and Qingqing are fine."
After Meng Yao left, Jiang Hongmin did not move and sat alone on the sofa for a long time.
The servant came over and asked her if she wanted a meal or dessert, but she just shook her head and stared at the TV screen, which was playing the film in which Meng Yao starred.
After Meng Yupu finished his work, he heard the servant report the situation. He hurried over without even taking off his coat. He just sat next to Jiang Hongmin:
"What's going on here?"
His voice was very soft, for fear of startling the people around him.
Jiang Hongmin slowly turned her head and said weakly, "You know what? Every time I see Yaobao, my heart aches. It's another moral condemnation."
"Whenever I see her, I think of the injustice she has suffered and how sorry I am for her..."
Meng Yupu's face also became sad. He moved his lips, but in the end, he said nothing.
"Yu Pu, I know you hate Rong Zhen in your heart. You think he killed Yu Jiao, your sister. So we concealed the truth and didn't want Yao Bao and Rong Zhen to get along with each other again. But who would have thought that Qing Qing would..."
Jiang Hongmin paused for a moment, she took out her handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from her eyes:
"We can neither advance nor retreat. Who could have thought that things would turn out like this..."
"We are sorry to Qingqing, and now we are even more sorry to Yaoyao. This is all our fault."
Meng Yupu spoke with difficulty: "What should I do..."
Jiang Hongmin smiled, but her voice was bitter: "We have to get back on track. We can't keep making mistakes."
*
Meng Qingqing vaguely felt that the attitude of the people in the villa towards her had changed a little. It was not that the servants' attitude towards her had become perfunctory, but that Rong Zhen and his close associates seemed to be deliberately distancing themselves from her, and their attitude towards her had become much colder.
She realized something might have happened, until a phone call came in, and she learned from an old friend that someone had been investigating her past, including her adoption as a child and her adoptive parents...
All signs indicate that he might be being targeted by someone, and it is most likely Rong Zhen.
He began to doubt himself...
Meng Qingqing couldn't think of any other reason.
Meng Qingqing told her friend on the phone not to alert the enemy and to tell her as soon as possible if anything happened.
After hanging up the call, she broke out in a cold sweat, almost soaking her entire back, and the sweat was as if she had just been fished out of the water.
Meng Qingqing rushed to the coffee shop without stopping, where she had already contacted a private detective and spent a considerable sum of money.
Rong Zhen was already suspicious of her investigation, and if she didn't take action, she would be exposed sooner or later. Only by knowing the information Rong Zhen had found out could she find the right remedy to dispel Rong Zhen's suspicion of her.
Before leaving, Meng Qingqing repeatedly reminded them not to be discovered by the other party and to keep things secret.
The customer is God. The private detective repeatedly assured that there would be no mistakes and that he would be able to do the job perfectly.
When Meng Qingqing left, she did not forget to look around to see if anyone was following her. It was not her fault that she was too careful, but Rong Zhen was really unpredictable.
Once the truth is revealed...
On a sunny day, Meng Qingqing shuddered for no apparent reason. She didn't dare to think about it any further.
Rong Zhen's home inexplicably turned into a den of wolves and tigers. Meng Qingqing directly contacted her agent to send a car to the agency. She was unusually silent along the way until the moment she got off the car, when she smiled at the flattering welcome from the people around her.
Huanzhen Entertainment had terminated her contract a long time ago, and she was now pushed by Rong Zhen to another entertainment company, Simiao Entertainment, which was on par with Huanzhen. With Rong Zhen as a big backer, everyone in the company was obedient to her.
Meng Qingqing got on the elevator and went straight to her agent's office. Her current agent is a well-known gold medal in the entertainment industry. He has excellent business capabilities, but he is a little rigid and often harps on trivial matters. This is what Meng Qingqing dislikes most about him.
Meng Qingqing had just put her brand-name bag on the sofa when she heard some terrible news.
"There's news from Longdenge. They've already chosen a global spokesperson. Unfortunately, you weren't chosen."
Longdenger is a well-known luxury giant, and it is extraordinary to be its endorsement.
Meng Qingqing's heart skipped a beat: "We have been preparing for so long and have shown our sincerity, why did we still fail?"
She was in a daze: "Who is the chosen person? Who is the spokesperson chosen by Long Dengge?!"
The agent's face was heavy as he slowly uttered a few words: "Meng Yao."
Meng Qingqing laughed out loud, but her eyes were gloomy: "Meng Yao... So it's Meng Yao, no wonder..."
The agent looked at her worriedly: "Are you okay, Qingqing?"
"I'm fine, I'm very fine, what can bring me down? Nothing can. Meng Yao can never be better than me, she will never be better than me..." She talked to herself, a little crazy, but the expression on her face remained calm.
She picked up her bag from the sofa and walked quickly: "I have something to do, so I'll leave first. I'll contact you when I have work arrangements."
The agent looked at Meng Qingqing's departing back and sighed for a long time.
It is true that Meng Qingqing is admired and flattered in the company, but there is always an exception to everything.
Meng Qingqing stood still, ignoring the assistants' calls. She just stared blankly ahead, unable to remember how long it had been since she last saw Ling Xiao, the head of Simiao Entertainment.
He was as handsome as ever, as gentle and distant as ever, and as reluctant to even look at her as ever.
No, he looked over here.
It was a very cold look.
As expected, he looked down on everyone except Meng Yao.
