Chapter 55: Chapter 55: Ji Wei’s Puzzlement

"You hate me so much, why would you think of going home with me?"

She was still smiling, her pretty face slightly contorted, her voice low with mockery: "Could it be that you’ve settled some deal today, so you don’t have to care about the Leng Family’s reputation, and you’re giving me away as a gift?"

Inside, his indifference wasn’t the issue. Treating her as a plaything to give away was where the deepest wound lay.

Leng Yan clenched his fists, his deep, dark eyes gathering frost.

Stupid girl, does she even know what she’s saying?

The work these days, plus the adjustments at Qingcheng Entertainment, had made his rest poor. He wanted to go home, but was just shamed by this woman in front of him.

Who knew what madness came over him just now to think of going home with her.

This ungrateful woman really made him so angry, he regretted saying what he just did.

"Wen Nuan, you’d better remember what you said today."

He glared fiercely at her, opened the Land Rover, and warned her sternly.

The black Land Rover quickly disappeared from her sight. Watching that slowly disappearing dot, her tears came unexpectedly, and she wiped them away with the back of her hand stubbornly, forcing herself to pull out a smile before entering the dessert shop.

She knew, because of her words, she pushed him further away. But only by him being completely cruel could she resolve not to love him.

"Fengfei Entertainment wants to renew the contract with Miss Ji Wei. The proposed remuneration is quite generous. Second Young Master, I..."

Wu Weitong shook his head helplessly: "I can’t handle her. Her agent Fan Ming said Qingcheng is a company past its prime. How could Miss Ji Wei possibly come here? I told him there would be investors, but he didn’t believe it at all and shut me out..."

"So, you didn’t even meet her in person?"

Leng Yan gently swirled the amber liquid in his glass, glancing faintly at Wu Weitong.

"Yes..."

Leng Yan’s gaze was calm, but carried an intimidating presence. Wu Weitong couldn’t help but sweat nervously.

"Look at how little you’ve achieved!" Leng Yan smiled lightly, his voice still calm: "Never mind, Ji Wei and her agent happened to be in this club today..."

A hint of disdain flashed in his eyes as he took off the Rolex from his wrist and whispered a few words to him.

"I understand, Second Young Master. Don’t worry."

Ji Wei’s agent had a great hobby of collecting watches. The one Leng Yan just removed was a 50th-anniversary limited edition.

"Qingcheng Entertainment wants to sign with me?"

The agent’s words almost made Ji Wei drop her jaw: "That entertainment company that’s about to go bankrupt? Ha, I think it’s a miracle if they last until the end of the year."

Qingcheng Entertainment Group has quite a number of artists under its name and is of a large enough scale. However, due to poor management and harsh treatment of artists, many have chosen to jump ship.

It’s like a toad wanting to eat swan meat; asking her to go to Qingcheng Entertainment, what could be more insulting?

She dared to bet that if this got out, she would instantly become the laughingstock of the entertainment industry!

"They’ve already found a big consortium to invest..."

Feeling the Rolex in his pocket, Fan Ming said with a smile: "The stars under their banner were planning to leave, but ended up staying. It’s said they’ve bought the adaptation rights to several bestselling novels, and each person’s role has already been secured, and they all play significant characters. The terms, I’ve heard, are much better than Fengfei’s."

"Who exactly is the investor?"

Ji Wei lowered her voice to ask, her thick eyelashes fluttering over water-like eyes filled with doubt.
