“Not exactly. I only think the entertainment circle is rather messy. I don’t want you to grow up in that environment,” Ding Ning said in a mild and indirect way.
“However, it was also our mother’s dream. She had a chance to be a big star, but she chose to quit show business for my father, which then became the greatest regret in her life.”
Biting her lips, Ye Le said, a little sentimentally, “My mother doesn’t have much time left. We want her to see us formally enter the entertainment circle before she passes away.”
Ding Ning was speechless. He really didn’t like the entertainment circle, but their dream was also their dying mother’s dream. Therefore, Ding Ning said nothing more.
Looking deeply into Ding Ning’s eyes, Ye Huan said, “Brother, we can assure you that we will never stoop to corruption. We will not be entertainment stars. What we want to do is art, real art.”
Ding Ning uttered a sigh. “Would you like to be actors?”
“Not actors, but singers!”
In unison, the two sisters shook their heads. Ye Le clenched her tender fists, her eyes sparkling. “My sister and I want to be singers and artists with real strength, instead of stars who earn their living by their looks or by pleasing the public through hyping affairs.”
“Oh, is there any difference?”
Ding Ning had never paid any attention to entertainment news. Thus, he didn’t know the difference between these so-called stars and artists.
“There are many kinds of stars. Some stars make a living from their looks. Usually, they have no acting or artistic skills. They became famous all because of their company’s full support or hype. Well, some of them earn their living by their acting skills and talents. For example, the famous singer Han Hong and the well-known actor Huang Bo, both of them have enough strength. We want to become stars like them.”
Ye Le explained patiently, “My mother wished to create some nice music and make fantastic movies. So do we. We don’t have to make great achievements. We just want to do what we like to do.”
“Then, that’s okay. Go ahead and do the things you like. All that I can do is escort you along the way. Let me know as soon as you get into trouble!”
Ding Ning still had some concerns, but there was no difference between a man without a dream and a salted fish. Since the twins chose the path they liked, Ding Ning wanted them to pursue their dreams.
“Brother, if you don’t like the entertainment circle, we can quit. It doesn’t matter.”
.
Looking at Ding Ning very seriously, Ye Huan said, “Yes, brother, anything you say.”
Ye Le gazed at him eagerly. Although she was not willing to do that, she did not want to let Ding Ning down.
Ding Ning smiled and rubbed their heads. “As long as you are happy, it is all right. But remember to remain true to your original aspiration. I don’t want to see my sisters being criticized.”
“You can rest assured, brother. We know how far to go and when to stop, and will never humiliate you.”
Beaming with happy smiles, Ye Huan and her sister waved their small fists and promised him.
Just then, a mean girl said in a voice dripping with sarcasm, “Hey, I finally know how you two sisters suddenly became rich these days. It turns out that you have found yourselves a rich man.”
.
Ding Ning’s face sank as he looked at the three women approaching. On her left side was a girl with neat bangs in a plaid dress. On her right was a girl with fashionable big-wave hair in a white lace shirt and a blue skirt.
Wearing black, sexy suspenders on top and tattered denim shorts on the bottom, the one who spoke just now walked in the middle with her feet on a pair of high-heel platform shoes.
Ding Ning had to admit that the girls from the Academy of Arts were all good-looking. Although they were not as beautiful as Ye Huan and her sister, all of them were fine-looking girls.
However, the three girls were under heavy makeup, wearing tart and mean expressions. Only at a glance, people would know they had to be whores. Thus, Ding Ning had no interest in them.
“You used to wear such shabby clothes, but now you have a car. Though it is only a cheap, busted car, your situation is much better than before when you could not even afford the meals in the cafeteria. You pretend to be pure, but now you also have a sugar daddy.”
“Then again, your sugar daddy looks quite good. However, he is not very generous. With your good looks, you should find a man who is willing to spend money on you. Driving a Volkswagen Polo, which is worth only a hundred thousand yuan, don’t you feel ashamed of yourself?”
Walking up to them, the three girls carefully looked Ding Ning up and down, their eyes full of disdain.
“Chen Yuxi, Liu Shasha, Li Xiaoman, are you sick? What nonsense are you talking about?”
With her little face flushing, Ye Le reproached with anger.
“Forget it. Just ignore them. All day long, they dress up like whores. They just can’t bear to see a little of others’ happiness.”
Usually, Ye Huan was gentle and quiet, but she never quibbled when she swore at others.
“It’s not that they dress up like prostitutes, they are whores. Especially you, Chen Yuxi, you’ve changed your men more frequently than you changed your clothes in your past two years at college. You indeed have lived up to your nickname ‘Bus’ (anyone can get on a bus with a little money),” Ye Huan said.
Ye Le did not allow the three girls to take advantage of them with words, so she went straight to abuse. In the past days, these three stinky b*tches always bullied them.
Ding Ning lifted his eyebrows slightly. “Why have they only bought a hundred-thousand-yuan car? But last time, I gave them two million yuan.
“However, that’s not the point. The key is what happened to the three sharp-tongued women? It seems that they have grudges against Ye Huan and her sister.”
“Ye Huan, Ye Le, you two dirty b*tches, don’t put on innocent looks all day long. You are lucky that Master Gu fancies you. Don’t f*cking waste the opportunity he offered. You actually find such a humble man to show off. Even I feel a sense of shame for you.”
Ye Huan hit the nail on her head, so Chen Yuxi hurled abuse in an uncontrollable rage.
Ye Huan’s little mouth pouted. Quickly, she whispered the past grudges between them in Ding Ning’s ear.
Chen Yuxi, a real gold digger, was the twins’ classmate. Being notoriously indiscreet about sex, she was willing to sleep with any man who gave her money. Besides, she clearly marked the price that men had to pay to maintain a specific length of sexual relationship with her. To put it mildly, she was a playmate of rich families’ young masters. But frankly, she was a real prostitute.
But it was none of anyone’s business if she only stopped there. However, this woman also acted as a go-between for the young masters from rich families. At first, Liu Shasha and Li Xiaoman were innocent and kind girls. However, intimidating them by force and beguiling them with money, Chen Yuxi managed to turn the two girls into shameless women like herself.
A young master from a rich family had a crush on Ye Huan and her sister. Thus, he asked Chen Yuxi to take the twins out to him only to trick them into bed.
Knowing Chen Yuxi’s behavior, the twins agreed on the surface but didn’t show up in the end. As a result, the young master Gu gave Chen Yuxi two slaps in the face. Since then, Chen Yuxi bore a grudge against the twins.
When Ding Ning heard all of this, the anger in his heart flared up. Everyone had their way of life. Chen Yuxi was happy in her own degeneration, and it was none of Ding Ning’s business. But it was hateful that she also dragged her classmates into the mire.
The most unforgivable thing was that she even laid her eyes on Ye Huan and Ye Le, which stretched Ding Ning’s forbearance to the limit. He immediately said coldly, “Get as far away from me as you can before I lose my temper. Never show your face around Ye Huan and Ye Le and, more importantly, never play any tricks on them. Otherwise, I’ll make you suffer. At that time, you will wish you were dead.”
“Who the hell are you? A wretched-looking man who only pretends to be rich. Look at you. The car you drive is only a Passat. The clothes you wear are worth less than 200 yuan in total. I don’t know why you have the courage to be here. It’s hilarious.”
Her arms crossed before her chest, Chen Yuxi made sarcastic remarks at Ding Ning, her face full of disdain.
In all seriousness, Ding Ning said, “I think I need to correct three points. First, my car is not a Passat. It is a Phaeton. But you are too ignorant to recognize it. Second, the price of the clothes I wear is higher than 200 yuan. It cost me 320 yuan to buy them. I certainly do not feel ashamed of that because I earned these clothes. However, you have to sell your dignity and flesh for those glamorous clothes. Third, my presence here is lawful and justified. Since a slut of loose morals like you, who also works part-time as a procurer, can be here aboveboard, why can’t I?”
“You dare swear at me. Go to hell, you b*stard.”
Chen Yuxi became angry from embarrassment, and suddenly she kicked at the vital organ between Ding Ning’s legs.
Ding Ning’s face fell. “I hate to beat women, but that doesn’t mean that I will never lay hands on them. Of course, I never regard the kind of person like you as a woman.”
“Pa!” A loud slap sound accompanied Ding Ning’s leisurely voice.
Chen Yuxi spun around in a full circle because of this slap from Ding Ning. After that, she took a few steps back before she was able to come to a stop. Covering her face, she shouted at Ding Ning, “B*stard, you dare beat me. Go to hell!”
“Well, Yuxi, whatever happened, he is a man, so we cannot defeat him. We should ask Young Master Gu to avenge us.”
Liu Shasha stopped Chen Yuxi, who had a red palm print on her face, and advised in a low voice.
“Right. You can teach him a good lesson when Young Master Gu arrives here. At that time, you can do whatever you want to vent your anger.”
Timidly, Li Xiaoman cast a glance at Ding Ning and whispered. Just now, Ding Ning’s fierce slap scared her. She had never expected that the man with a gentle look could give Chen Yuxi such a hard slap in a decisive manner.
“I dare you to stay here. Wait and see how Young Master Gu Shao will deal with you.”
Her eyes significantly widened, Chen Yuxi stared at Ding Ning and threatened him. “If you dare to escape, I will have Young Master Gu rape Ye Huan and Ye Le. I will do what I say.”
Ding Ning narrowed his eye. This time, he became furious. “I think you must want to die.”
“Pa, pa, pa…”
His figure flashed across, and then there was a series of slapping sounds. When Liu Shasha and Li Xiaoman came to their senses, Chen Yuxi’s head had already become as big as a pig’s head, and she had already collapsed to the ground.
Standing calmly and peacefully, Ding Ning looked coldly at Liu Shasha and Li Xiaoman, who were trembling all over. “Now, go and get me the so-called Young Master Gu. I want to see how awesome he is.”
“Brother, Gu Tianqi is from a wealthy family, and his father rose from the underworld. Hurry up, let’s go.”
Ye Huan was a little scared. She pulled Ding Ning’s arm and told him in a low voice.
“Don’t be afraid. I am here, and I can deal with any trouble you come across. Shortly, I will be out for some time. If I don’t settle this case, I cannot be at ease leaving you.”
Ding Ning patted her little hand and comforted her.
Compared with Ye Huan, Ye Le was a fearless girl. This time, when she thought that Chen Yuxi always made sarcastic remarks against her before, Ye Le felt quite relieved because she finally got a chance to give vent to her anger.
Holding Ding Ning’s arm and waving her small fist, Ye Le said excitedly, “Sister, our brother is powerful enough, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Hmph, I have long hated to see Gu Tianqi’s lewd look. He is so ugly and likes making trouble. I feel sick even at the sight of him. I don’t know how many girls in our school have been forced or seduced to sleep with him.”
“Oh, is he that ugly? Do you want me to rebuild his appearance by offering him bashes and kicks?”
Ding Ning joked and laughed. However, a trace of cold light flashed across the bottom of his eyes. He said to himself, “It seems that this Gu Tianqi has done many bad things.”
Then, the nervous Ye Huan felt relieved. Gazing affectionately at Ding Ning with her beautiful eyes, she asked with a little anxiousness, “Brother, will it cause you any trouble?”
“Trouble? I don’t like it, but I’ve never been afraid of trouble. Don’t worry. No one can bully you when I am here.”
Ding Ning narrowed his eyes, wondering if he should let Lu Zhan and others take care of the safety of the twins.
“Crunch!”
A series of emergency brake sounds came from the roadside. Three luxury cars stopped at the roadside—a Ferrari, a Range Rover Evoque, and a Honda MPV.
With a gloomy face, a young man dressed in all designer clothes got out of the cool red Ferrari stopped at the forefront.
Only after casting a glance at him, Ding Ning was delighted. “This guy must be Gu Tianqi. He is indeed an ugly guy who has short hair but a horse face. His triangle eyes look like the eyes that are engraved on Halloween pumpkins. Under those eyes is his bulbous nose and then his thick lips. He has a mouthful of jagged, overlapping teeth, like the scattered tombs in mass graves. What’s more, because of the long-term effects of smoking, all his teeth have already become yellow.”
