Chapter 348: Chapter 349: Just Want to Give You the Best

Li Zimu pulled Wen Ningning into a corner and asked in a low voice, "Has she been in contact with He Jinxia recently?"

When He Jinxia was mentioned, Wen Ningning’s face changed instantly, and she became somewhat uneasy.

She turned her head away, "How would I know that? I can’t look at her phone, and besides, Wanwan spends her free time in the dorm, she doesn’t go out."

Li Zimu’s eyebrows relaxed, and she instructed, "Keep a good eye on her, and if—"

She paused, her brows furrowing again, "If He Jinxia comes to find Wanwan or asks her out, try to stop her, and if it doesn’t work, let me know."

Wen Ningning agreed, but after holding back, she couldn’t help asking, "Wanwan is easygoing and doesn’t know anything, so it shouldn’t matter if He Jinxia is looking for her, right?"

Li Zimu pressed her temples, feeling a headache coming on, and said wearily, "This is just in case. Since she has left the team, it’s better for the members to have less contact with her. If she leaks any old stories about being bullied by team members to the outside world, we will only be blamed, and she won’t be affected at all."

Wen Ningning understood and responded with a "hm," although she was somewhat skeptical at heart.

If He Jinxia really wanted to do such things, she would have done them already, why wait until now?

Not to rain on the parade, but with the popularity He Jinxia has now, even if she tore into JY girl group, it could bring them some more popularity.

As for those old stories, she has already left the team, and the past grievances should go with the wind. If she could talk about them, so could they. Would the netizens really care if they were true or false?

Even if they cared, where was the evidence that He Jinxia was oppressed? Could it even be found now?

Wen Ningning glanced at Li Zimu and thought she was worrying too much.

Seeing her like that, Li Zimu’s face showed a touch of helplessness.

Wen Ningning knew some things, but not much, so naturally, she wouldn’t understand Li Zimu’s concerns, and Li Zimu couldn’t explain anything.

Meanwhile, Meng Wan had returned to her dorm and replied to He Jinxia’s question using voice message.

"You know that my parents and elder brother are not in Huaxia, but settled in America. They said they wanted to come and see me, and they’ll be here this week. They asked me to get them some tickets to an event, any tickets will do, as long as they can see me."

At that time, He Jinxia had already gotten into Sheng Yan’s car and was heading home.

After hearing this, she thought for a moment and sent a voice message back, "Your family is making a rare trip over, and they want to see you. By all means, you shouldn’t refuse them. Don’t you miss them?"

Meng Wan bit her lip, "But... if they come, they’re sure to try to persuade me to return to America with them."

The car’s air conditioning was on, without any music playing; it was very quiet, and Meng Wan’s voice echoed clearly inside.

He Jinxia was not secretive in front of Sheng Yan and replied, "No matter why they’re coming, they’re your family. Their primary concern is for your wellbeing. If they want to see you, let them see you."

Meng Wan was still conflicted inside and didn’t reply.

He Jinxia continued, "Isn’t there a show recording in three days? You’ll need to invite an audience to fill up such a big stadium. It just so happens that you can get a few VIP tickets for them so they can see how their daughter is doing in Huaxia, and how outstanding she has become."

Meng Wan chuckled and said, "Jinxia, what you’re saying sounds a lot like my mother. She used to say things like that when I was young."

He Jinxia smiled silently, her voice gentle, "What’s meant to happen will always find a way, no matter how you try to avoid it. So don’t overthink it, just have a good talk with your family."

After a long wait, Meng Wan sent back a message with only a simple "hm."

He Jinxia stared at that "hm" for a while, then put her phone down and didn’t reply any further.

Sheng Yan asked casually, "Your friend?"

He Jinxia, "Yes, Meng Wan, one of the members of the JY girl group, is a friend of mine."

Sheng Yan’s expression paused slightly, and he asked in a low voice, "Are you close?"

He Jinxia thought about it and shook her head, "Not particularly close, but we get along. She’s cheerful and lively, not dumb but also doesn’t play schemes. Talking to her is very casual."

Sheng Yen murmured an acknowledgment and did not continue discussing the JY girl group. Instead, he talks about what happened after her participation in the show.

"For the September Fashion Week, I want to take you there early to meet a few friends, have a little vacation and rest. How about spending the entire September in America?"

He Jinxia remembered that yesterday she and Luo You had confirmed her schedule, which was nearly entirely cleared for her to attend Fashion Week in September, except for a few brand events she couldn’t decline. Everything else that could be postponed was postponed.

Luo You had arranged this saying he wanted her to balance work and leisure, to take advantage of the lack of new scripts knocking on her door by enjoying and resting properly in September. Maybe there would even be new opportunities in America.

When He Jinxia heard this, she had no other thoughts and followed Luo You’s arrangements.

Now that Sheng Yan mentioned it, she couldn’t help but give him a meaningful look, "Did you collude with my agent about my schedule? How did you know I am free in September?"

Sheng Yan’s demeanor remained unchanged as he said, "No, I was just asking you."

He Jinxia said, "But your tone was very certain, not at all like you’re asking someone."

Her eyes narrowed slightly, making her look like a lazy animal, "Tell me, did you discuss my schedule with Brother Luo in advance?"

Sheng Yan instinctively wanted to deny it, but after catching a glimpse of Jinxia’s expression in the rearview mirror, he remained silent for a moment and finally murmured an acknowledgment with reluctance.

Pfft, he looked particularly displeased.

He Jinxia couldn’t help but smile, her eyes crinkling up like a cat that had stolen a treat.

Her voice was soft as she said, "Sheng Yan, in the future, I hope I can be the first to know about what you plan to do. I don’t want to be the last to find out, nor do I want everything done for me, only to be informed of a result."

Sheng Yan murmured an acknowledgment again, his expression as indifferent as ever, but Jinxia could tell he wasn’t too happy.

She didn’t understand what he was being so tsundere about.

As the red light brought the car to a stop, He Jinxia quickly pounced over to give him a peck and immediately settled back into her seat.

Sheng Yan turned to look, only to see her eyes shimmering like spring water, staring unblinkingly at him, "I just want to participate in life with my boyfriend, not to do nothing but simply enjoy."

"Beep Beep!" A horn from another car urged him to move on.

Sheng Yan turned away and started the car, murmuring lightly, "But I just want to give you the best."

To place the best in front of you, within your reach.

He Jinxia’s hand twitched slightly, feeling that Mr. Sheng was incredibly teasing tonight, unimaginably gentle and well-behaved, which made her want to reach out and pat his head.

Pat once, to have him smile at her.

Pat twice, to have him kiss her.

Pat thrice, and she would take him home, shamelessly making him surrender to her.

——Manually picturing the scene of a mountainous female overlord encountering a handsome young man and directly horseback carrying the man home to be the village chief’s wife, He Jinxia shuddered, shocked by her own thoughts!

"What are you thinking about?" Sheng Yan’s voice suddenly came.

He Jinxia replied absent-mindedly, "Thinking about how to eat you up."

Sheng Yan chuckled softly, "Come to my place tonight, I’ll strip down and lie on the bed for you."

He Jinxia laughed, "Haha, just kidding, don’t take it seriously."

Sheng Yan gave her a look and hummed lightly, "I’m not joking."

He Jinxia turned her head to look out the window, hiding the trace of shyness on her face, pretending she heard nothing.
