Really angry?
Why are you angry?
Why do you seem so happy going for a candlelight dinner with Zhu Yiming? Don’t you like it?
Ning Zesheng let out a heavy sigh!
Qiao Anlu was walking and cursing at the same time, wondering why she’s being so stupid, why she just can’t use these idioms? So infuriating!
She wants to break up with Ning Zesheng; he bullies her too much, and she has no power to resist. It’s an unequal relationship between a man and a woman; she refuses to accept it!
In the midst of cursing, she found everyone in the company staring at her. Great!
Qiao Anlu said sheepishly, "I didn’t want this either; you all know what kind of person Ning Zesheng is. I don’t dare disobey."
Everyone expressed their sympathy for her!
"However, Qiao Anlu, wasn’t it your posture of kneeling and singing ’Conquest’ that satisfied Mr. Ning and got you together?"
"Did he force you to be with him, and then made you kneel and sing ’Conquest’?"
"Qiao Anlu, hang in there and stay strong; don’t lose sight and don’t be disheartened... "
As soon as everybody saw Ning Zesheng coming out of the office, they instantly got back to work, and Qiao Anlu rushed off, too.
Only upon reaching Ada’s office did she feel some relief, though she had to face Ada’s layers of scrutiny, "Not only did you get with Ning Zesheng without telling me, but you also admitted to the relationship without discussing it with me?"
"It’s a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!" Qiao Anlu looked up and asked, "Sister Ada, I regret it now. I want to break up with him, can you help me?"
"It’s too late now!" Ada said with an exasperated sigh, "I’ve worked so hard finally getting Tongtong into the ’Princess Consort Shu’ crew to film smoothly, and now you pull this stunt. She even called earlier, asking me to congratulate you."
"Haha, really?" Qiao Anlu laughed dryly, feeling no joy whatsoever.
"Your disclosure is a relief; I no longer have to constantly worry about how to handle this matter. At least Zhao Anqi won’t have any juicy stories of yours to expose for a while, but I’ve agreed for you to accept her interview."
"What does this have to do with Zhao Anqi?" Qiao Anlu blurted out, only realizing after she spoke, "Are you saying the journalist following me was arranged by Zhao Anqi?! That little b**ch, how can she go from pestering that fool Lin Ji Yang to fixating on me? That b**ch, without any talent, can only profit off us, right? No way, I’ll make her pay an image fee."
With a posture ready to go and fight, Ada reached out and stopped her, saying, "She’ll naturally pay for the interview, now hurry and tidy up for your next assignment."
"Oh God!"
...
"So, how about it? I told you, if you wanted to get into the entertainment industry, I’d help you; if you wanted to expand the Gossip Society, I could help with that too. Having a boyfriend like me isn’t bad, right?"
After work, Zhao Anqi was intercepted midway by Tong Ji Yang; last time, in a moment of impulse, they had a fling, and afterwards, Zhao Anqi’s attitude turned colder, not even pretending to smile like she did when she refused his pursuit back then.
"Tong Ji Yang, why are you so persistent? I’ve already told you, we’re impossible."
"You clearly like me, so why is it impossible? Besides, you’re my woman now; I must take responsibility for you. What do you want to eat tonight? No clue? Then I’ll decide!" Tong Ji Yang suggested while driving.
Zhao Anqi reached out and stopped him; amid the tussle, they pulled over to the roadside.
