Gu Xiyao and Ning Zesheng’s marriage was arranged by him?!
No wonder Nian Nian always says that he made her mother marry another man.
Ji Niandong knew that the lives of the wealthy were as deep as the ocean, but such chaos and scheming, this was the first time she realized, "Why did you want Gu Xiyao to marry Ning Zesheng?"
Lu Beichen’s expression was slightly somber, "To appease the Ning Family! Ning Zeyan suffered such a loss, he had to demand something in return. I shamed the Ning Family so greatly, Uncle Ning wouldn’t let it slide! Ning Zeyan wanted to marry Xi Yao, so I let Xi Yao marry his younger brother instead, this way I restored face to Uncle Ning and also let Ning Zeyan know that I, Lu Beichen, am not someone to be trifled with!"
After he finished speaking, he reached over to hold Ji Niandong’s hand, "Do you find me scary?"
For someone as influential as Lu Beichen, she didn’t quite believe he could operate without some cunning or tactics. She didn’t expect, in all honesty, that Gu Xiyao was pitiful too, being treated like an object in a casual alliance.
She shook her head, "No, you have your reasons for doing what you do! I just didn’t expect Miss Gu’s marriage to come about this way!"
"There’s nothing wrong with Ning Zesheng, marrying him, Xi Yao doesn’t lose out!" After he said that, he squeezed her hand a bit tighter, "Today I was delayed by her matters and came late, you’re not angry, right?"
"No!" She smiled, "You’ve explained so much about this matter, it would be petty of me to still be angry!"
Ji Niandong couldn’t help but feel a little better. Regardless of whether Gu Xiyao was Nian Nian’s biological mother or not, he could so casually have her marry another man, then it really must be nothing!
"Still angry?" Lu Beichen laughed softly, "So you were angry before? Well, jealousy is good, not being jealous would be strange! However, to be jealous of a little niece is really unnecessary!"
Once again he hit the nail on the head, and Ji Niandong felt a bit embarrassed, "Who’s jealous?" She puffed her cheeks and hugged his arm, "There better not be a next time!"
"Alright! Wife first, wife foremost!" He took her hand and kissed her on the back of it. Follow current novels on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮※𝓷𝓮𝓽
Only then did Ji Niandong snuggle closely against him, going back with him.
Shen Congjun wasn’t originally someone significant, let alone now after offending people, he was left without any way out. The film achieved its promotional effect!
But an unknown netizen suddenly exposed: Shen Congjun and Ji Niandong were previously in a relationship, and it was because Ji Niandong cheated that Shen Congjun lost control on set!
This revelation immediately reignited what was becoming a fading news!
Netizens were fiercely debating online, each with their own opinion!
"I thought Shen Congjun was a scumbag, but what a plot twist, Ji Niandong is doing so well now, maybe she did cling to a sugar daddy, that’s why Shen Congjun acted out! Wouldn’t a man get mad if he was cheated on?"
"No evidence, if you’re so capable, just like how he attacked on set, bring out the proof, huh? Trying to drag Sister Tong down now that she’s successful, aren’t you?"
"What’s there to argue about, it’s all for hype! Look at how high the box office of ’Choked Love’ is, and the viewership of ’Picking Up a Nine-tailed Fox’ skyrocketed too, regardless of truth or falsity, they accomplished what they wanted!"
Ji Niandong was filming on set for ’Picking Up a Nine-tailed Fox’, and as soon as she left the film set, she saw numerous fans cheering her on, holding banners all saying "Go Sister Tong, we support you!"
This warmed her heart a bit, and she bowed to thank them, finally being ushered into the car by Lazy Cat!
"Sister Tong, don’t worry about this matter. The company is already investigating who the anonymous tipster is, it should be resolved soon!" Lazy Cat saw her consistently massaging her temples and offered comfort.
