Li Qingqing wore a bright, tight-fitting long skirt, high heels, with heavy makeup on her face and a pair of sunglasses, followed by two assistants and three bodyguards.
Her stay at Jinrui Hotel was scarcely known, at least neither the paparazzi nor the fans had any word of it.
So, she completely didn’t expect someone would block her way.
The assistant opened the door, just about to enter, when Ningwan came out from next door.
"Miss Li, can we talk?"
Li Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Ningwan.
The assistant and bodyguards immediately surrounded Li Qingqing, nervously asking Ningwan, "Who are you?"
Ningwan smiled lightly.
She was already very beautiful, with a smile that could charm a hundredfold.
The assistant and bodyguards were also stunned, such beauty was rare even in the entertainment industry.
However, she looked unfamiliar.
They could almost be sure she wasn’t someone from the circle.
Otherwise, with such looks, she would have been a huge star by now, not an unnoticed nobody.
"The wife of Miss Li’s rumored partner." Ningwan answered.
Everyone was stunned, what kind of status was this?
Li Qingqing frowned and asked in surprise, "What do you want from me?"
"I told you, I just want to chat." Ningwan said.
Li Qingqing thought for a moment and told her assistant and bodyguards, "Let her in."
"Madam Zhan is of high status and won’t be the kind to throw fits." Li Qingqing said.
Upon hearing the words "Madam Zhan," the assistant finally realized who Ningwan was and dared not stop her, inviting Ningwan inside.
"Li Qingqing, can I have your autograph?" Wu Taotao suddenly popped her head out and asked cheerfully.
"Of course, no problem, you’re with Madam Zhan, you can have ten autographs. Xiao Ke, give her ten autographs." Li Qingqing instructed the assistant.
The assistant nodded and immediately handed ten autographs to Wu Taotao.
"Thanks, it’s not me who likes you, it’s my brother." Wu Taotao explained.
"Your assistant? Seems not too sharp, you should change one if you get a chance!" Li Qingqing said to Ningwan.
Ningwan coughed lightly, "I can’t replace her, she’s not an assistant, she’s a close friend."
Li Qingqing looked at her with sympathy.
After entering, Li Qingqing said to Ningwan, "Madam Zhan, you sit for a while, I’ll go take a shower and remove my makeup. The makeup on my face is too uncomfortable, we’ll talk once I’m done."
"Alright, no rush, take your time, I’ll wait for you here." Ningwan said.
Li Qingqing entered the bathroom, and the assistant made coffee for Ningwan.
Looking at Ningwan’s flawless skin, they couldn’t help but be envious.
Seeing her high nose bridge and nearly perfect lips, better than their own Qing’s, they wondered, could this be surgery?
How could humans look ?
This isn’t scientific.
"Is there something on my face?" Ningwan asked.
The assistant snapped back to reality and hurriedly shook their head, "No, sorry, Madam Zhan, you’re really beautiful. Have you considered developing in the entertainment industry?"
Ningwan shook her head, "Not everyone can become a star."
The assistant was surprised, thinking Ningwan would disdain the identity of a star.
Unexpectedly, she actually said not everyone can become a star. In her tone, there was no trace of contempt.
Li Qingqing happened to come out of the bathroom and heard this sentence.
She couldn’t help but look at Ningwan in a different light.
For many ordinary people, they see stars as those lofty and shining ones.
However, for these wealthy powerhouses, they were just pawns that could be played with.
Especially the wealthy wives, who usually looked down on women stars like her.
There was a female star before, who became a mistress of a boss.
After a long time, she wanted to climb up but was caught by the boss’s wife, who contemptuously said, "A female star? Just a higher-class hooker; a chicken is a chicken, can it enter the hall?"
This was the evaluation of the wealthy wives towards them.
"Madam Zhan, what did you want to talk about? The rumors with Mr. Zhan?"
Li Qingqing removed her makeup, but applied a simple nude makeup, now looking even more beautiful compared to when heavily made up.
Ningwan finally saw her clearly; indeed, she was quite the beauty.
Li Qingqing sensed Ningwan appraising her, so she straightened her back more and pushed her proud chest forward a bit.
Ningwan was exceptionally beautiful, but still slightly immature, unlike her, who already had the charm of a mature woman.
And that charm wasn’t something Ningwan could catch up with anytime soon.
Li Qingqing looked back at Ningwan with pride, she was never afraid to compete in beauty with anyone.
"Miss Li is much more beautiful than Liu Shiyan." Ningwan said.
Li Qingqing immediately replied disdainfully, "Naturally, Liu Shiyan’s nose is fake, eyes are fake, even her chest is fake, how can she compare to me?"
"And, Miss Li is also smarter than Liu Shiyan." Ningwan added.
Li Qingqing showed a proud expression.
"Miss Li’s necklace is also very exquisite, looks quite valuable." Ningwan praised, noticing the necklace around her neck.
Li Qingqing bragged, "This necklace is a global limited edition, only one in Asia."
"So, Miss Li doesn’t lack money. I’m very curious, who has such ability to make Miss Li give up many years of friendship with Zhan Hanjue and release those rumors?"
Li Qingqing looked at Ningwan in confusion.
She wasn’t asking if there was something real between her and Zhan Hanjue but asked who bought and released the news?
This was too strange!
"Doesn’t Madam Zhan care more about what exactly happened between me and Mr. Zhan?" Li Qingqing asked in confusion.
Ningwan smiled, "I trust my man. He and Miss Li are both clean, nothing to ask. I’m more interested in who bribed Miss Li to release the news. Also, why did my husband visit Miss Li last time?"
Li Qingqing couldn’t help but admire Ningwan internally.
With such a magnanimous heart, she truly is the lawful wife.
"It was the Feng Family who bought the news. I cannot afford to offend Mr. Zhan, nor can I offend the Feng Family. The Feng Family has many businesses in the entertainment industry, they’re practically my half-boss. I beg Madam Zhan for understanding." Li Qingqing explained.
Ningwan nodded, "I understand, a half-boss, how could you offend them? I get it, thank you Miss Li for telling me. Besides, what did my husband discuss with Miss Li last time? Could Miss Li also inform me?"
"Actually, I’ve known Mr. Zhan for many years." Li Qingqing said, "We’re almost half-soulmates. He came to me, not for anything else, just to ask how to get along with women. I’ve known him for so many years, this was the first time he asked me such a question. It should be for Madam Zhan! It seems Mr. Zhan is quite devoted to Madam Zhan."
Ningwan raised an eyebrow.
She suddenly remembered that Zhan Hanjue once had a fiancée who was a star in the entertainment industry.
