To put it simply, the two of them were basically in a “divorce” state. They were only relying on Beibei to maintain their remaining relationship, but they were also treading on thin ice.
Yi Xiao did not give up hope. He hoped that he could get to know Fang Xiaocheng through their interaction. He hoped that she would change her mind and bring Beibei home with him.
…
A month later, misfortune struck again.
The source of the problem was still Guan Mei. She had gotten 200,000 from Yi Xiao, but Li Song had lost all of it in less than a month.
Li Song had found yet another way to make money. He felt that there would be great returns if Guan Mei could get 200,000 from Yi Xiao.
She decided to close the door and look for Yi Xiao.
Guan Mei refused. After the press conference, the company gave her a chance to appear on screen because of her performance.
She had been acting as the third female lead in a film. Now that she had a job and a few scenes, she just wanted to focus on her acting. She didn’t want to go down the wrong path again.
But now, Li Song was like a dog addicted to eating meat. One meal without meat and he felt that he could start eating human flesh.
“Are you going or not?” Li Song raised his fist and threatened.
“Li Song, I can’t go. I look for President Yi to ask for money anymore. If I do that, I’ll lose everything I have now. I’ve been working hard on acting. I’m acting now. Wait a little longer. When I get my pay, I’ll have money,” Guan Mei explained.
“It will be too late by the time you finish filming! I need money, and I want it now! Are you going or not? If you don’t go, do you believe that I will beat you to death right now?”
Li Song kicked Guan Mei angrily. Guan Mei protected her stomach in pain and begged, “Stop kicking! Stop hitting me! Li Song, I’m pregnant!”
“What?” Li Song was shocked.
“I said I’m pregnant! I’m pregnant with your child! For the sake of the child, don’t hit me anymore!” Guan Mei’s eyes were filled with fear and her heart was even more frantic.
“Really? What if you’re lying to me?”
An insidious idea popped up in Li Song’s head.
“No, I’m not lying to you.”
Guan Mei showed him the report. After Li Song finished reading it, not only was he not surprised at all, but his eyes also lit up. “This child came just in time! Guan Mei, just say that this child belongs to your boss. He will definitely give you more money now!”
“Li Song, you’re crazy!”
“I’m not crazy! Hurry up and ask him out for money!” Li Song threatened. “If you don’t, I’ll tell everyone about your pregnancy. I’ll tell everyone that not only do you have an affair with your President Yi, but you also have a child. When the time comes…”
Guan Mei did not dare to think about what would happen. Although she wanted to use underhanded means to get to the top, she really did not want to ruin President Yi’s reputation.
The things she had done last time had already damaged President Yi’s reputation and affected the company’s development.
She didn’t want to do that anymore, but Li Song wouldn’t let her go. In the end, Guan Mei had to compromise. “Okay! Give me some time. I’ll go seek out his family and see if I can get the money.”
Guan Mei did not dare to look for Yi Xiao. She was afraid that he would do something to her. She was afraid that she would lose her life if that happened, so she could only walk around outside.
The first person Guan Mei found was Fang Xiaocheng. When Fang Xiaocheng saw Guan Mei looking for her, she wasn’t very pleased.
“Why are you here?”
“I’m sorry, Mrs. Yi. I’m really sorry for causing you and President Yi so much trouble last time.”
Fang Xiaocheng sneered. “Miss Guan, let’s get straight to the point! If you have anything to say, just say it!”
