Chapter 35 - Secret (Xu WanZhi just walked out of the studio, and before she could see her van, someone grabbed her right arm and dragged her into a black sedan.) (2)
What one couldn’t have was always the best. In the week that followed, Jiang YueXian posted about how much he missed the little fox pup on Weibo everyday, but Xu WanZhi was very determined to ignore him. Finally, by the 8th day, Jiang YueXian couldn’t stay calm anymore and poked her privately on Weibo.
To his surprise, Xu WanZhi had blocked him.
Unbelievable!
Jiang YueXian fell apart altogether. So, all the fuss that he had made on Weibo for the last week, it wasn’t that she didn’t see them, but that she thought it was too much.
This kind of ask but couldn’t have intoxicated Jiang YueXian.
***
That day, after the filming of “Blossoming Us”, Xu WanZhi just walked out of the studio, and before she could see her van, someone grabbed her right arm and dragged her into a black sedan.
She thought she had ran into bandits in broad daylight and was just about to smash their heads in with her magic when she saw that the one who dragged her into the car was Jiang YueXian.
“WanZhi. Um, so sorry for dragging you into the car.” Jiang YueXian bowed down to her, removed his shades and mask, and gave her an apologetic smile.
Xu WanZhi returned with a polite but fake smile. “What is it that you need, Mr. Jiang?”
“That, um, I tried to private message you on Weibo, but there must be some kind of an error, my account was blocked by yours.” He was tall and skinny, with a very seductive look. Sitting next to her, he had properly and politely said it was “some kind of error”. The purpose was, of course, to ease things between them and also gently nudged Xu WanZhi to add him back.
To his surprise, Xu WanZhi didn’t appreciate his diplomacy. Instead, she nodded bluntly. “That’s right. I had you blocked.”
Jiang YueXian was dumbfounded.
Xu WanZhi smiled at him and added. “I think my agent Fang Lin has already clarified with you clearly with regards to my past behavior of trying to leech off of your popularity. I will avoid any types of contact with you in the future, and that includes my fox.”
Her words made Jiang YueXian speechless right away. Feeling mistreated, he lowered his head and said, “Oh, don’t be like that. We are friends, right? We are even working out of the same studio. There’s no leeching. Don’t be a stranger. C’mon, we will add each other. I’ll even ping you first. Does that work?”
He went on and on and Xu WanZhi didn’t hear most of it.
Her attention was focused on a bush not far away from them – there were some rustling noises. Someone was probably hiding in there, secretly filming them.
She casually looked over there and caught sight of the person.
It was Chang XiaoYa.
This chick had gone through some bad times in front of Xu WanZhi a few days ago and had been holding grudges and waiting for her opportunity to get back at her. Chang XiaoYa must have been following her after work everyday hoping for some sort of scandals. And, finally, she had run into this today.
Xu WanZhi had a pretty good idea what was going on. She was just about to turn to reply to Jiang YueXian before she heard another familiar set of footsteps walking toward the car.
She knew instantly that this was Mu ZhenYu.
Her desire to survive made her switch the direction of what she was going to say immediately. She told Jiang YueXian, “Our paths don’t cross normally and we certainly are not friends. Why is it that a film emperor like you would stoop to the level of a third-tier actress and asks me for favor? What is this all about?”
“For your fox, of course!” said Jiang YueXian without even needing to think about it. “Ever since my husky had brought your little fox pup into my house, I had been hooked. I even lost my appetite. She was all I can think about day in and day out. All I want is to be able to see her again. I even tried to buy a fox, but that didn’t work. None of them could take her place. WanZhi, can you please let me have her? If that’s really not an option, how about three days a week – no, two days. Or even just one day. Just let me take a good look of her, please?”
“No.” The car door was pulled open abruptly and Mu ZhenYu’s large form appeared outside of the car. He dragged Xu WanZhi out of the car and pulled her behind him. “Jiang YueXian, leave her alone.”
