Chapter 90: Chapter 90: If Death Could Prove Love

Even though on Saturday, Ji Wei told Yan she didn’t know that she was the Leng Family’s Second Young Madam. But, what did she mean by intentionally mentioning the blue Crystal Bear? She instinctively thought that Ji Wei said it on purpose.

From the beginning, she was seen as a rival in love.

Especially now, this feeling was even stronger. Fine, she’s not a pushover. Ji Wei can’t act however she pleases.

The door was gently knocked, and she thought it was the master. Wen Nuan didn’t expect that the one who came in was Tan Qing.

"Why are you here?" She glanced outside, and there was no sign of Ji Wei, guessing she had already left. Wen Nuan gave him a faint look, "Go ahead, what do you want from me?"

Remembering how he let others misunderstand their relationship without stopping them made her a bit angry.

"At the company banquet, be my date." Tan Qing sat across from her, smiling slyly.

Wen Nuan quickly waved her hand to stop him, "Better not! Don’t you think there are already enough rumors going around the company? I can’t be Young Master Tan’s date, or people will start talking again."

"Tch—"

Tan Qing laughed indifferently, "What? Don’t you think what they’re saying is true, that I really want to pursue you?"

"Pfft—"

Wen Nuan had just taken a sip of tea and sprayed it out upon hearing him.

Fortunately, there was nothing on the table. She quickly pulled out some tissues, wiping as she begged, "Young Master Tan, please spare me. Just yesterday after work, I saw a pretty girl get into your car. Don’t tell me you don’t know her. Qu Min, the daughter of Qu Sheng Group’s big boss, personally picked by the chairman as your wealthy wife—everyone in the company knows. Don’t tell me it’s a lie."

"Don’t bring that up in front of me!"

Upon hearing this, Tan Qing’s previously gentle and handsome face immediately darkened.

"What happened?" Wen Nuan was puzzled, "Did I say something wrong?"

"Wen Nuan, I don’t like hearing people mention Qu Min, especially you!" Tan Qing gritted his teeth, really wanting to open her head to see how it was structured inside.

The person he liked was her, but she was oblivious like a block of wood, making him terribly frustrated.

Yet, he didn’t dare confess so soon, fearing she’d be scared and leave MT.

"Be my date. That’s an order; it’s part of your job."

Wen Nuan still wanted to ask when Tan Qing received a call. After taking a look at the phone number, he patted Wen Nuan’s shoulder, left a remark, and walked out.

The film set.

The atmosphere was more tense than usual.

Ji Wei, playing the role of Yu Wei, had risen to the rank of Zhaoyi, favored in the entire palace. Due to jealousy, the other concubines falsely accused her of poisoning the pregnant Concubine Shu.

The Empress Dowager personally ordered her punishment. She knelt, pleading with the Emperor to discern the truth. But hindered by the Empress Dowager’s authority, the powerless Emperor wanted to protect his beloved, yet he was helpless.

Yu Wei (played by Ji Wei) returned to her room with a bitter smile, hanging a three-foot white silk from the beam. Looking at the young Emperor who rushed upon hearing the news, "Your Majesty, do you truly not believe in this humble servant this time? If so, if I were to die, would you—feel any pain at all?"

Her voice was mournful, her eyes filled with intense resentment, tears welled up but did not fall. Yet, precisely for this reason, she seemed even more pitiable.

Everyone thought she was looking at the Emperor, and that her words were meant for him. But in reality, her gaze was clearly cast towards a corner behind the Emperor.

There, someone was sitting.
