Chapter 788: Chapter 788: I Will Definitely Find a Way to Get Her Out
To get a meal made by his own hands, one had to make a reservation in advance, or be someone with a special status or position. For ordinary people, it was difficult to have such an opportunity.
Rong Weiwei, looking at the blanched snails and red wine foie gras laid out before her, felt they were particularly glaring.
In the entertainment industry, she was the youngest Best Actress with numerous fans, backed by Shi Mufeng, her boyfriend with a substantial fortune. She had also been one of this restaurant’s esteemed guests.
Now, she could only sit in the detention center, staring at the meal in the box that had already gone cold. Rong Weiwei’s eyes felt as if they were pricked by needles as she swept the meal box to the ground in front of Jiang Meiqi.
With a loud bang, the delicately arranged dishes in the meal box were all scattered on the floor.
Jiang Meiqi, distressed, went to pick up the meal box without care, her fierce gaze turning to the woman squatting down to clean up the mess, “What is happening outside? Don’t hide it from me, I need to know what HuanYu and Rong Yan have done after I got here!”
She was determined to remember this debt, and upon her release, she would not let these people off the hook!
Seeing that Jiang Meiqi’s attempts to console her were futile, Jiang Meiqi could only tell her what she wanted to hear, “Things are not good. I bought up all the photos that the reporters took outside the hospital. But many media outlets still caught wind of it, and a lot of people online are discussing it. Just then, HuanYu stepped out and made a statement. One was admitting that Shi Mufeng was detained by the police for seeking pleasure at a nightclub, and the second was confirming your arrest! They also said…”
“Also said what?” Rong Weiwei was extremely irritated.
She lifted her eyelids, looking at Rong Weiwei with concern, “They also said they want to terminate your contract.”
As soon as the words ‘terminate your contract’ were uttered, Rong Weiwei first froze, then sneered with an ashen face, “Xin Lanye, that old witch, has the nerve to terminate my contract? She knows very well how much money I’ve made for HuanYu over the years. Now that I’m in trouble, she didn’t hesitate to throw me out without a second thought, not even disgusted by her own actions. HuanYu is a big company, is she that afraid of Li Shengxiao? She’d rather cower like a turtle, watching me and her son being trampled by that man, without the courage to speak up!”
The more she spoke, the angrier she got, and the more she wished she could leave immediately. The next second, she turned to look at Jiang Meiqi, “Do you really have a way to get me out?”
Jiang Meiqi was merely comforting her, hoping she wouldn’t continue to be downcast. Suddenly being stared at with such an intense gaze, Jiang Meiqi didn’t know what to say to her and could only muster, “I will find a way, for sure. Wei, don’t think too much about it for now, don’t rush it. Give me some time, there may still be room for maneuver in this situation.”
“That little bitch Rong Yan won’t let me off easily this time, and Li Shengxiao is bewitched by her. Without her loosening her grip, Li Shengxiao won’t let me go!” Rong Weiwei said through gritted teeth, turning to look at Jiang Meiqi again with a flicker of hope, her tone softened to pleading, “Mom, I don’t want to stay here anymore. If I keep this up, I fear they’ll drive me insane! They’re forcing me to confess to things I didn’t do, telling me if I don’t agree, they’ll ruin me. I really can’t take it anymore!”
The police had indeed been constantly urging her to confess to hiring thugs in the hotel and drugging Rong Yan, but Rong Weiwei was still holding on to a sliver of hope, unwilling to give up her last chance.
She knew that dragging things out wasn’t the solution, as the police had a video of her being assaulted by those thugs. If she continued to resist and the man behind her lost his patience, her fate would only be worse!
