Chapter 498: Mom, thank you
“Mom, won’t sister be upset if we suddenly follow her and disturb her ?” Rong Weiwei sat obediently beside Jiang Meiqi, looking at the taxi not far away, her eyes flickering as she asked.
Upon hearing Rong Yan’s name, a look of disgust flashed across Jiang Meiqi’s face. She forcefully masked the disdain and said firmly with a tense face, “What’s there for her to be unhappy about? I’m her mother, she’s been back in the country for more than half a year, and she hasn’t visited home once. A girl living outside all the time, not knowing who she’s with, it’s my right to be concerned about where she’s staying. If she’s unhappy, it means I, as her mother, don’t matter to her.”
Rong Weiwei wanted to say that now that Rong Yan had latched onto that man, she wouldn’t think much of anyone. But the words just wouldn’t come out when they reached her lips.
Everyone knew she had been having a tough time lately.
Because of what happened at last week’s banquet, she had had a big fight with Shi Mufeng. It had been over a week, and Shi Mufeng hadn’t contacted her.
Xin Lanye, because she failed to persuade Rong Yan to drop the lawsuit, and the court’s decision was out, was very dissatisfied with her. Several times, during company meetings, she called her out, making it impossible for her to save face in public or private.
On top of that, she had lost three major opportunities: “Return to Ning,” “Three Kingdoms,” and Director Stephen’s new film, and hadn’t managed to secure the big budget tribute film at the Lin City banquet. Her resources were severely depleted, and her popularity had begun to show signs of instability. Worst of all, although the Lin City banquet was a private event with high standards and many of Lin City’s socialites, as well as several top celebrities in attendance, the incident of her being slapped in the face had spread through the grapevine from these people’s mouths.
The fact that Rong Yan was Li Shengxiao’s girlfriend became known due to his influence. Everyone still had some reservations because of him and only dared to spread it on a small scale in private. But they didn’t show the same restraint with her; gossip about her being loudly slapped in the face by Rong Yan was flying everywhere in the industry, making her feel like she was being looked at with strange eyes wherever she went.
This kind of feeling was something she hadn’t experienced since she had solidified her position in the Rong Family.
Perhaps because it had been too long since she had felt this way, these past few days she felt almost driven mad. She absolutely didn’t want to continue !
Rong Weiwei clenched her palm, biting her teeth hard. To prevent Jiang Meiqi from seeing the jealousy-distorted expression on her face, she bowed her head slightly, covering her face.
Jiang Meiqi saw her burying her head in silence and sighed, patting her shoulder and saying, “Don’t worry, your mom is here. I won’t let you be wronged.”
“Mom,” Rong Weiwei pressed down the jealousy that was about to spill out of her chest, her beautiful face showing a touched expression as she looked at her, a glint of moisture in her eyes, and hugged her, “Thank you.”
She had intended to contact Rong Yan privately and ask her to take down the news release about the court victory from the internet. But when she used the phone number obtained through her agent and called, the person on the other end hung up as soon as they heard her voice.
When she called again, her mobile number had already been blacklisted!
If that little bitch could do this, then she had no choice but to seek help and make a personal visit.
Of course, she wasn’t just having Jiang Meiqi visit to make Rong Yan hesitate, what mattered most was that she never expected Rong Yan would climb into bed with that man. Since Rong Yan was living outside, she was very likely staying with that man…
What she wanted was never something simple!
