After Zhong Yi hung up the phone, Losang gazed at the sunlight outside the window. Her heart was filled with despair.
Zhong Yi and Yi Jingxi were like a giant cage to her.
She tried so hard to run away, but now, she was back to the beginning.
Would she live the rest of her life like this?
Squeak!
The door suddenly opened. Yan Su walked in and paused briefly when seeing Luosang in the room.
Luosang saw that Yan Su was carrying some beer.
“I had a bad time at work, so I got myself some beer.” Yan Su shrugged and said, “Do you want one?”
“Yes.” Luosang took a can of beer and opened it. She took a sip and found the beer to be terribly bitter.
Sitting in front of her, Yan Su was also slowly drinking the beer. Her face was cold, eyes filled with tiredness.
Suddenly, Luosang felt relieved. She hadn’t known Yan Su for long, but she had learned that the latter had no strong family background. But unlike Tang Ning, she never complained, but had always worked hard silently.
Everyone will encounter all sorts of difficulties on the road to success. Yan Su hadn’t given up yet, so Luosang believed that she shouldn’t feel disappointed either.
“You better be careful about Ye Chuen,” Yan Su abruptly said to her with a low voice. “And you better stay away from Chi Shengxu. Ye Chuen has liked him for a long time now.”
Luosang gave a start; she didn’t know how to respond.
In fact, she had sensed that long ago.
And nothing was happening between her and Chi Shengxu at all.
Hearing her silence, Yan Su frowned and continued, “Ye Chuen’s family background is solid. I’m afraid that even the principal is afraid of her. Don’t offend her, unless you have to.”
Luosang raised her eyebrows. She was a transfer student, so she didn’t know as much as Yan Su did. “What is her family background?” she asked.
“It’s said that the chairman of Zhong Zhou Group Corporation is her great-uncle, and the president is her aunt,” said Yan Su.
Luosang spewed out the beer.
She remembered the president of Zhong Zhou Group Corporation; her name was Murong Cheng. So it turned out that Ye Chuen was Nian Junting’s distant cousin.
“What?” Yan Su looked at her and asked.
“Nothing. I just see that she does have a strong family background.” Luosang raised her head to take a sip of beer.
Somehow, she suddenly recalled the strange narcissistic look in Nian Junting’s face and wanted to laugh.
She also felt less depressed.
Two days later, Luosang went to Zhong Yi’s apartment in Xia City.
When she arrived, she found that Zhong Yi’s apartment was located in the city center, on top of a tall building, covering an area of over four-hundred square feet with a swimming pool and a hanging garden. She was able to see the whole city from her apartment.
“How do you like my place?” Zhong Yi sat on a bar stool, holding a glass of wine. Her red lips curved in a proud smile as she said to Luosang, “Jingxi bought this apartment for me.”
Hearing her words, Luosang felt like her intestines were tied into a knot.
She raised her head, eyes filled with coldness.
“I told him that I’d come to Xia City to film a movie, and he bought me an apartment immediately. He said that the hotels were unhygienic. This apartment cost over forty million.” Zhong Yi smiled and continued, “He’s always like that. No matter how busy he is, I’m always his first priority.”
Luosang frowned and said, “Did you pay me to be your assistant so you could tell me how well Yi Jingxi’s been treating you?”
Zhong Xi slowly slid off from the stool, walked up to Luosang, and said with a soft and low voice, “You’re wrong. I was just trying to tell you that all the money Yi Jingxi spent on me came from your Xu Pictures. It can be counted as your money that he’s been spending.”
The atmosphere suddenly turned icy-cold.
Luosang trembled in anger. She thought of how her father was sent to prison two years ago, and how happy were Yi Jingxi and Zhong Yi about that.
She was completely enraged. The hatred that she had been trying to restrain for two years now exploded.
