The constant banging of the keyboard only made the atmosphere more tense, rigid. It was suffocating and dark. “Yu Jing… It’s alright. You don’t have to do anything about this matter. I already told you that Lily is not a very good target for these schemes.” Qiao Qiao’s voice echoed. She glanced at the man whose fingers flew on the keyboards. “This is a bad idea.”
“If your goal is to let the world know about this Lily then… you just won. Not many people read the business page of the tabloids. Fewer teenagers and younger fans knew about people who rule the business world. They read websites about rumors and watched drama channels. This is your opportunity to get back to that woman.” Yu Jing said, his hands still on his keyboard.
“I already talked to some entertainment websites. They are willing to release incriminating articles about this woman for a price.” Yu Jing added. In response, Qiao Qiao lowered her gaze to hide the contempt in her eyes.
Sooner or later, everyone would know what kind of woman Lily is. This only means that Qiao Qiao will soon achieve her own goal as well. She closed her eyes to hide the excitement swirling in her orbs.
To be honest, she was not really planning to cross paths with Lily’s again. She knew that Lily was ruthless and cunning. However, this is only necessary. This is the only thing that will make Miss Chen give her that recent album that she always wanted. This album will only bring good things to her career. Moreover, with Miss Chen’s connections and protection, she was sure that Lily would not be able to touch her.
“Yu Jing… I am afraid.” She uttered. “I think… I think Lily knows that it’s me.” She bit her lips as her eyes reddened. “During the photo shoot, she keeps on staring at me with that smile on her face. I fear… I fear that she is planning something against me.”
“I won’t allow that to happen.” Finally, Yu Jing removed his eyes from his computer and walked towards Qiao Qiao. His sharp eyes immediately turned gentle at the sight of the woman that he liked. “She can’t touch a single strand of your hair.” He sat next to his woman and held her delicate hands.
“Qiao Qiao… do you trust me?” Yu Jing asked, concern laced his eyes. Yu Jing, the heir of Yu Entertainment, had been working with the company for almost ten years now. In those ten years, Yu Jing had never gotten into a relationship with an actress under his company. In fact, he never got into any relationship with any other actress before.
This woman was the first one. The first woman who had honestly caught his attention. He watched as Qiao Qiao met his eyes. She nodded.
“I do.”
“Then… stop worrying about her. I will take care of things. I will assure you that she will soon suffer because of the injustice that you suffered in her hands.” He used his thumb to wipe the tears silently streaming down Qiao Qiao’s cheeks. “Stop crying,” his voice was gentle. “I am here.” He pulled her into a hug as he slowly stroked her back.
Qiao Qiao let out a deep sigh as she sobbed in Yu Jing’s arms. Who would have thought that she would be this lucky? She not only found Miss Chen who is willing to mentor her but also a man who loves her like crazy. Isn’t she just the luckiest person?
Slowly, a smile bloomed on her face. “Thank you, Jing. I don’t… I don’t know what to do without you. If…” she quickly lowered her head when Yu Jing ended the hug. “If I didn’t meet you, then… I would still suffer from my manager’s favoritism.”
“Hey… this is destiny. Alright?” Yu Jing smiled before he frowned. “And that Cindy and her sister will have their own retribution soon. True, this scandal did not ruin her. But this is not the only one that I have in mind.” A sinister glint flashed in his eyes. “For now… just go with the sisters. I am sure that Cindy Hao’s naive nature will be her downfall soon. She will drag Manager Hao with her.”
“But Jing, you can’t do bad things just because of me.” Guilt laced her voice. “I can’t let you do something that would hurt Manager Hao.”
“Qiao Qiao… you are too pure.” Yu Jing sneered as he stood and went back to his chair. “Manager Hao was the reason why you suffered in Lily’s hands. How could you still protect her? It is obvious that she will put her sister as her main priority. Sooner or later, she will forget that you exist and that she is actually in this position because of you.”
“But—”
“I know she had been good to you and guided you in the right way. But that was a part of her job.” Yu Jing sighed. “Hearing you say this makes my heartache. No wonder Manager Hao took advantage of you. Qiao Qiao… you are just too innocent.”
Hearing this, Qiao Qiao pouted and avoided his gaze. “Stop calling me innocent, Jing. That word is making me uncomfortable.” Slowly her cheeks blushed. “Not after what happened between us.”
“What?” Yu Jing laughed. “Why are you blushing?” The coldness in his eyes completely vanished. “Tell me my little Qiao, what were you thinking?” he lifted an eyebrow.
“As our CEO you should stop being shameless,” she said. In response, Yu Jing stifled a laugh.
“Really? So… I can’t do that to my own woman?” Amusement flashed in his eyes. A sly smile dangled on his face. “If you want me to stop saying things like that then… you should stop being too beautiful.” He stood and walked towards her, desire flashing in his eyes.
