“Mrs. Li personally made the call, hoping you’d understand our position. This is difficult for everyone, and we’re left with no choice. We’ll have to collaborate another time.”
She didn’t dare tell Rong Weiwei that all major production companies had received a message from the Li Group, stating they wouldn’t be using anyone from HuanYu in their future investments in movies, TV series, variety shows, or advertisements.
They probably wouldn’t have the chance to collaborate again!
Rong Weiwei’s face turned shades of green, then white, then purple, as she listened to the dial tone on the other end of the phone in silence.
She composed herself and slowly put down her phone.
Her agent, seeing the color in her face, didn’t dare to speak.
The spot on Rong Weiwei’s left cheek where Rong Yan had slapped her was still faintly aching. Her facial muscles twitched, and she suddenly turned to her agent and said, “Go find out who’s replacing me for the role!”
Rong Weiwei didn’t get a wink of sleep that night.
Meanwhile, Rong Yan had a great dream, holding Little Baby all night. The next morning, when she woke up, her Li Duidui was awake as well.
Blinking his large, black eyes at her, it was clear from his expression that he had recovered from the previous day’s fright.
It was her Little Demon Rong!
He clutched Rong Yan’s sleeve tightly, leaning in.
“Good morning,” Rong Yan said as she lifted the blanket and picked him up, seeing that he seemed no longer scared. She then asked, “Duidui, do you remember how you fell into the lake yesterday?”
Upon hearing the word “lake,” the fear clearly flashed across the pretty little one’s face. He pressed his lips together but after pondering a moment, he looked up into her eyes and said, “The sister who was looking after me went out for a while, so I wanted to go to the bathroom by myself. As I was walking, I heard someone around the corner saying bad things about Mommy. I recorded it with my phone. After that, the person who was badmouthing you saw me and chased after me. When I got to the edge of the lake, I can’t remember if I slipped or if someone pushed me, but I fell into the water.” Which means, Baby didn’t see anyone from the beginning to the end!
Rong Yan furrowed her brows, wondering why he was holding Rong Weiwei’s bracelet in his hand. But when her eyes met his pale little face, all the questions she had stuck in her throat.
If Duidui didn’t see anyone, she decided not to press him further on this matter. Asking too much might cause him psychological trauma.
It was not worth causing psychological trauma to her Baby over someone like Rong Weiwei. Besides, even if Duidui had seen Rong Weiwei push him, the words of a child couldn’t serve as evidence. It wouldn’t be possible for the police to arrest someone based on that.
As long as she knew Rong Weiwei was responsible, that was enough!
Having thought it through, Rong Yan didn’t dwell on it anymore. She got Baby out of bed and, holding his hand, said, “If you don’t remember, let’s leave it. Come on, let’s go wash up. After we finish, let’s have breakfast, and I’ll take you back to Grandma’s. I’ll come to pick you up in the afternoon, okay?” “You fell into the water, so Grandma must be worried about you too.” With that, Li Duidui obediently nodded, “Hmm.”
He loved his Little Demon Rong the most, and Grandma was his second favorite.
Grandma was actually very nice, so he didn’t want her to worry either.
Rong Yan didn’t know what to say to such a well-behaved child; he was so good that she couldn’t help wanting to plant a couple of kisses on his tender little face. And that’s exactly what she thought—and exactly what she did!
She smacked a kiss on the little one’s soft, fair cheek and with a smile in her eyes, she praised him, “So good!”
