The Male Lead Suddenly Became My Lapdog after I Annulled Our Engagement

155 Brewing Storm

Old Master Jing only woke up slowly after Jing Yan and He Miao had dinner.

According to the doctor’s instructions, Butler Li had already prepared food for him. The two of them fed him some food before going back to rest, leaving Butler Li and a hired nurse to take care of him.

Before they left, Old Master Jing held Jing Yan’s hand guiltily and said with a bitter smile, “Now that I’m sick, I’ll have to leave the company’s matters to you. I didn’t want to affect your studies, but I’ll have to trouble you now.”

Jing Yan pursed his lips, his eyes determined. “Grandpa, I should have done this a long time ago. You just need to rest well.”

Old Master Jing nodded and closed his eyes tiredly.

Before they got home, they went to the Jing family house to take care of Onion. He Miao was exhausted after a busy and worried day. She laid on the soft sofa and did not want to move.

Just as she was about to fall asleep, her phone suddenly rang.

He Miao lifted her heavy eyelids and squinted to answer the phone. Xu Meng’s clear and loud voice was heard through the phone.

“Goddess! I’ll tell you a piece of good news. The news of you winning the championship again has spread like wildfire. The number of fans on my account has increased to a few million, and many people want to buy the perfume you’re going to use for the competition!”

“Oh, really? That’s a good thing. Yes,” He Miao replied listlessly, then continued to fall into a deep sleep.

Xu Meng talked happily for a while, but when she heard heavy breathing from the other side, she could not help but laugh. She guessed that she must be exhausted, so she said “Good night,” softly and hung up the phone, not to disturb her rest.

Late at night, in front of her phone screen, He Wei grabbed the teacup on the table, threw it into the corner, and smashed it.

The assistant quickly tried to calm her down. “Sister Weiwei, please calm down. Although He Miao is very popular on the internet now, she has already said that she will not enter the entertainment industry. She can’t threaten your position at all.”

“What do you know?!” He Wei glared at her fiercely and snorted coldly. Her usual gentle and amiable image was completely gone.

The assistant shrunk her neck from her glare and looked innocently at her manager, Chong Wei, who was behind her. She was so aggrieved that she was about to cry.

Ever since he was assigned to He Wei by the company, he had always thought that He Wei was an understanding big sister who was true to her appearance. He Wei had always been good to him and had never been stingy with his bonuses.

This was the first time he had seen He Wei’s fierce face and he was so scared that he did not dare to speak.

He Wei was the first female celebrity he had worked with. He really did not know how to make He Wei happy at this time.

Chong Wei pinched the space between his eyebrows in frustration and waved his hand to let his assistant leave first.

There were many people in the entertainment industry who wore masks, and he was already used to this kind of thing.

However, just as the assistant pulled open the hotel door and was about to leave, He Wei suddenly calmed down. She walked behind her and held her hand. “I was in a bad mood just now. I shouldn’t have been angry at you. Please don’t mind me.”

“It’s okay.” It was fine if there was no one to comfort her, but when she heard He Wei say that, the tears in the assistant’s eyes instantly slowed. She looked at He Wei, whose eyes were filled with guilt, and shook her head. “It’s all my fault. I’m useless. I couldn’t help Sister Weiwei.”

“It’s not your fault. You should go back and rest.” He Wei gently coaxed her. The moment she closed the door and turned around, the kindness on her face completely disappeared without a trace and was replaced by a bone-chilling coldness.

“What happened last time affected me greatly. As my manager, can’t you think of a way to deal with it?” He Wei lit a cigarette, sat on the sofa, and blew out a ring of smoke. She looked at Chong Wei with a glare.

If it was not for the fact that she had been so greatly affected by the previous incident that she was still unable to use the koi system, she would never have let He Miao be so smug.

Now, she could only helplessly hope that her manager could be of some use.

“There is.” Without the presence of outsiders, Chong Wei felt more at ease. He leaned back on the sofa and looked at the girl he had raised with his own hands. “You have to sacrifice your sister. She’s destined not to be in the entertainment industry anyway, so you don’t have to feel guilty.”

“A burden?” He Wei sneered, flicked off the ashes, and looked at him coldly. “She’s my enemy now. What burden can I have? What do you plan to do?”

“You said that your sister was raised in the countryside since she was young, and that she’s your half-sibling from a different mother?” Chong Wei raised his eyebrows with interest.

“Yes.” He Wei nodded. Through the layers of smoke in front of her, she looked at the man with ill intentions and saw through his intentions. “You want to use her identity to make an issue?”

“That’s right,” Chong Wei said. “That’s the only way we can overshadow her previous limelight and direct the scorn to her.”

“Will this work?” He Wei snuffed out the cigarette butt hesitantly and carefully thought about the possible mistakes in every step.

“Don’t worry,” Chong Wei confidently raised his chin. “As long as the news is released, someone will naturally spread it.”
