The Villain’s Wife 500 Treated Unfairly
"You just caused an uproar!" Manager Hao scowled at her sister’s smile. How could this woman be this naive? "I already told you to leave them alone! You don’t have any idea how dangerous this game is! Do you really want to be ruin?"
"Sister... " Cindy Hao sighed. "It was a broken heart. Just a heart. Why are you upset?"
"Cindy! How could you say that?" Manager Hao stared at her sister in disbelief. "You have been in the industry for years! How could you be this stupid?" She stared at Qiao Qiao who was sitting opposite to her sister. "You tell her what kind of woman that Lily is... Go ahead... you tell her."
"Why are you two so worried?" Cindy asked when she saw Qiao Qiao’s troubled expression. "I bet they won’t do anything. They are not celebrities. Saying something won’t have any effect on their careers."
"Exactly! They won’t lose anything! While you..." Manager Hao gritted her teeth. "What makes you think that Zhou Jingren will not cancel the ambassadress contract that you just signed? What do you think will stop him from telling every other company that you are affiliated with to cancel the contract as well? Did you — Did you even think about this?"
As expected, Cindy frowned when she heard her sister’s words. Honestly, she did not think about this at all.
"See? I knew it! Cindy... you were too hasty this time! You knew that the awards night is coming! If you attract Lily and Zhou Jingren’s ire, then please stop expecting an award for your films."
"Then... what do you want me to do?" Cindy asked. "Is there a way that I could... maybe talk to CEO Yu about this matter?"
Manager Hao immediately sighed. "I will try to talk to CEO Yu about this matter."
......
Meanwhile, Lily and Zhou Jingren just acted as if nothing happened. Instead of doing something to end the rumor, the duo did not issue any statement. Instead, they spent their days together, learning martial arts and shopping new things as Lily decided to redecorate and even change the paint of their condo.
While they were busy choosing paints and shopping, the media were also busy speculating about their relationship.
Both Lily and Zhou Jingren never really confirmed the marriage. However, the public was not blind. When that fiasco with Lily’s death happened, they knew that Zhou Jingren was the one who took over the Facci Group. Wasn’t that enough proof that the two secretly got married?
Some people also claimed that they saw Lily and Zhou Jingren in traditional Chinese clothing performing a wedding ceremony in one of the temples in Hong Kong. Still, some people insist that these are all hearsay. However, Cindy Hao’s reaction to the matter was just shady.
A broken heart? Why would she use a broken heart on Lily and Zhou Jingren’s photo together? This immediately riled up her fans and some paparazzi. How could they miss an issue like this?
Still, Lily and Zhou Jingren ignored the issues and hired more bodyguards to prevent anyone from the media from approaching them. This only created more and more confusion.
"Tomorrow... I have a magazine interview with W Magazine. I won’t be able to join you for lunch as there will be some photoshoot as well." Lily said before she eats the broccoli in her bowl.
"So... you will be the W Magazine’s cover next month?"
"Hmmm." She nodded in response. Originally, Lily asked Cathy to decline all these invites because she did not want to inform the Qin Family in Hong Kong that she was back. Of course, this reasoning was no longer valid now that she already dealt with that family.
At this point, there is no stopping Lily from accepting magazine interviews and TV guesting. "Also... I will be in Mainland China next week. I have an interview with a known TV program about women’s rights. I am also planning to visit mother and father." Lily added.
"Are you going to ask them about the Lee Family?"
"I will," Lily said. "Do you want to come with me?"
" I have a trip next week to Taiwan. But... I will accompany you to your interview before going to Taiwan. Then... I will go back to see mother and father."
"Good. With the current issues that involves your name, I suggest that you avoid going to clubs with your clients. You can have Bei Tian accompany them instead." Lily’s words made Zhou Jingren pause. He stared at her for a few minutes before he nodded.
"Are you— "
"Jealous?" Lily continued his words as she laughed. "Why would I? You were with me that night and I trust you." She said. "However, I hate reading news about this matter. I am too lazy to scheme against insignificant people."
"President Zhou!" Secretary Go barge into the room, interrupting the couple’s conversation. He eyed Lily before she spoke. "We have a situation downstairs. Miss Cindy Hao’s fans and anti-fans are outside. They are spouting nonsense about their Goddess being treated unfairly."
"Treated unfairly?" Zhuo Jingren lifted an eyebrow.
Secretary Go eyed Lily. He hesitated for a few seconds. "They said that Miss Cindy is actually your mistress. They also think that you are treating her unfairly because you married someone more prominent than her. They said that they want to hear your explanation on this matter. Some even said that the reason why Miss Cindy got so many roles in the past few years even though her acting was mediocre was because of you."
"Did that woman issue a statement about this matter?" Lily asked.
"No. Not even her agency or her manager is doing anything to stop these rumors. The last thing that she did was react to one of your photos together and add a broken heart caption. Because of this... her fans thought that she was hurt and had been saying some nasty stuff about Preside Zhou."
"See?" Lily eyed Zhou Jingren. "This is what I’m talking about. I am too lazy to scheme against people like this. You better not do this again." She glared at him.
