“I think slappig him is already letting him off easy. Aye, if I knew he was going to pit himself against me, I should’ve just cut his family jewels off and made him incapable of having sex back then,” Jiang Duoyao said regretfully.

“…” Changqing sighed. “Can you not be so rash? Make your company come up with a plan to handle this?”

“Don’t mention this.” Jiang Duoyao was annoyed. “I even got lectured several times by my manager today but all’s well. We’re going to sue Rong Le Entertainment for defamation.”

“That’s good.”

Changqing heaved a sigh of relief.

That night, Jiang Duoyao’s company released an official statement to request Rong Le Entertainment and Dai Wen to stop defaming Jiang Duoyao and to announce their company was going to sue them. Jiang Duoyao had also explained the whole incident regarding how she offended Zhu Fenglei on her Weibo.

When Ruan Yang was attending her last event for a certain brand at 3 pm, she received interviews from many media companies. Aside from news of her decision to leave the entertainment industry, they also asked her about the seduction incident regarding her close sister, Jiang Duoyao, that had happened in these past couple of days.

“Miss Ruan, it’s known in the entertainment industry that you and Jiang Duoyao have known each other for years and were also dormitory mates in university. What are your views on this incident regarding Jiang Duoyao?”

“Do you know that she seduced Zhu Fenglei?”

“Or were you unaware of it all this time?”



Various sharp questions were thrown at her. Ruan Yang swept away a strand of hair by her ear and smiled calmly. “When I heard the news, I was very shocked. All I want to say is that this must be the best joke I’ve heard this entire century. After all, it really takes quite a lot of courage to be able to seduce such an ugly director. Besides, the Duoyao I know is very superficial and she cares a lot about a person’s looks. She would never do something like this.”

The reporters didn’t think she would make such a harsh comment and they were all shocked.

Ruan Yang’s assistant cleared a path for her and helped her out.



When Changqing saw this piece of news while sitting in her office, she really took her hat off to Ruan Yang.

Her goddess indeed.

She actually dared to publicly call Zhu Fenglei ugly.

Impressive.

At night, Ruan Yang’s public support for Jiang Duoyao once again created a wave of discussion in the entertainment industry. The commentators immediately sided with Jiang Duoyao and several netizens were laughing at how their goddess, Ruan Yang, was so straightforward that she actually voiced their thoughts.

However, in no less than two days, the actors who had starred with Jiang Duoyao before sided with Zhu Fenglei when they were interviewed and even Jiang Duoyao’s friends in the entertainment industry whom she had helped remained silent.

Straight after that, on Monday, another experienced media personnel exposed that Ruan Yang was once a lover of Dong Chen Corporation’s Vice-chairman, Xin Ziao. At that time, Xin Ziao already had a fiancee and she was only dumped at the end of last year when Xin Ziao got engaged. They even leaked several photos of Ruan Yang and Xin Ziao in the Maldives as proof.

All of a sudden, the comments on the internet sided with Zhu Fenglei once again. Many netizens said they always thought Ruan Yang was straightforward and didn’t think that she was actually like that in private. No wonder she was close friends with Jiang Duoyao. They were actually birds of the same feather.

Soon after, Ruan Yang’s nude photos from the past were once again dug up by someone and spread on the internet like crazy.

Changqing was furious as she threw her mouse on the floor. She called Ruan Yang. “Ruan Yang, where are you?”

“Didn’t I already announce that I’m leaving the entertainment industry? I’m in Hong Kong now. I’m preparing to take a flight to Norway,” Ruan Yang said lightly. “I got a friend over there to help me find a patissier. I’m intending to learn about pastries for a while.”

“Pastries?” Changqing was dumbfounded. “You’re still in the mood to learn about pastries now? Didn’t you see the news on the internet…”

“I haven’t seen anything for a long time. My manager already investigated the case. That experienced media personnel who made the leak was connected to Zhao Zhu. I knew she wouldn’t just let things off.” Ruan Yang sighed softly. “Luckily I already planned to leave.”

Changqing was anxious. “How can you leave just like that? The public still misunderstands you. You should come out and explain yourself. This isn’t your fault; it’s Xin Ziao’s fault. Why must you bear the burden of a man’s mistake?”

“Love is a two-way street. There’s no absolute right or wrong for either party. I was wrong too,” Ruan Yang said softly. “If I came out in front of the media to push the blame onto him, he would do the same and we would just be like two dogs biting each other. The love we once had would become sullied. There’s no need. After all, our love was already very sullied.”

Changqing felt her eyes moistening. “Then Xin Ziao…”

“If he could choose to marry Zhao Zhu for his company, he would definitely choose to stay silent for Dong Chen’s reputation.” Ruan Yang actually laughed softly. “It’s good this way too. Let’s take this chance to let me give up on him completely. It’s okay. When bigger news comes out in a few days, no one will follow up on this incident anymore. Alright, I have to board the plane now. Take care. Also, you and Guan Ying should talk to Duoyao more and tell her not to be so rash. You and Guan Ying shouldn’t speak up for us publicly. It’s hard to make things clear given the current situation. Whoever speaks up for us will be dragged into it.”

“Then when are you…” The call was hung up before Changqing could finish speaking.

Changqing sat in her chair dazedly. Song Chuyi walked over and said, “Use your phone to call mine—I don’t remember where I left it.”

“Chuchu…” Changqing turned her head back with her eyes reddened. “Why don’t you get Brother Molun to get rid of Zhao Zhu, that stinky woman, silently?”

“Get rid?” Song Chuyi’s brows twitched. “Do you think Molun is a killer? He was just a secret service agent.”

Changqing pouted. “Zhao Zhu is simply everywhere. Why don’t you get Li Shaobin to secretly get rid of her? I’ll pay.”

Song Chuyi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He stroked her head. “How much money do you have? Enough of all this. Zhao Zhu belongs to the Zhao Family and also has the Xin Family to protect her. If people could get rid of her, she would’ve been long gone.”

Changqing fell silent for a while before lifting her head up to ask, “Chuchu, do you think Xin Ziao would speak up for Ruan Yang? He even came to the broadcasting station to look for me because of Ruan Yang.”

Song Chuyi was silent for a while. He shook his head. “He won’t. The Xin Ziao I know is someone who endures. He would only manipulate people to help him do the dirty work. You can never count on someone like that to give up everything for someone he loves.”

Changqing suddenly felt a chill in her heart.

However, she still held on to a glimmer of hope. After the incident exploded then settled down more than a week later, Xin Ziao hadn’t spoken up for Ruan Yang.

Changqing felt a piercing coldness in her heart. She could almost imagine how Ruan Yang, who had loved him, must feel.

Perhaps it was because of Ruan Yang and Jiang Duoyao’s incidents that Changqing wasn’t in a good mood for a period of time and she didn’t even have much of an appetite.

She wasn’t happy even when she saw her favorite toothpick beef (1. Szechuan delicacy) and spareribs during meals.

Shen Lu was also a little worried about her and said, “Look at you—you haven’t been eating much lately and have lost so much weight. Don’t keep dwelling on those unhappy thoughts.”

Changqing was spiritless. She propped her head on her hand. “I just don’t have any appetite. I won’t have any appetite unless Zhao Zhu is eliminated.”

Song Chuyi glanced at her silently. After dinner, he took Robben and Lolita out for a walk.

Changqing wanted to go too but just wasn’t in the mood.

After an hour, Song Chuyi brought home a small bag of grapes.

Changqing’s eyes lit up. “How did you know I was craving fruit?”

Song Chuyi didn’t reply. He washed the grapes and Changqing immediately picked some to eat.

Shen Lu came over to pick a grape and frowned immediately. “Chuyi, the grapes you bought are too sour.”

“Sour? I find them quite delicious.” Changqing blinked.

Shen Lu was stunned. Song Chuyi took out a pregnancy test kit and handed it to Changqing. “Go up and test yourself.”

Changqing was stunned. The grape she was peeling dropped onto the floor. Shen Lu smiled immediately. “Yeah, you have been a little strange recently. You’re most likely pregnant. Go check it out.”

Changqing’s mind was a mess as she took the pregnancy test kit upstairs. After testing herself, she saw two red lines on the pregnancy test results. She wasn’t sure what it meant so she passed it to Song Chuyi to take a look. “Am I pregnant or not?”

Song Chuyi looked at her, threw the pregnancy test kit away and hugged her. He kissed her forehead extremely gently. “We’re having a baby.”

Changqing was stunned. She touched her flat abdomen and couldn’t believe there was a little baby in there.

She called her friends and relatives delightedly to tell them the news. Yan Changqing was so happy he pushed aside his socializing event and rushed back home. “Chuyi, Changqing is pregnant—would it be somewhat inappropriate for Robben and Lolita to stay in the house? I heard that a pregnant woman shouldn’t interact with pets during her pregnancy.”

“No, I can’t bear to send them away.” Changqing looked at the two large dogs sitting beside her. Her heart was aching.

“Dad, it’s alright. They’ve been vaccinated periodically. As long as we’re careful about sanitation and not letting Changqing get in contact with dog feces, it shouldn’t be any problem,” Song Chuyi said. “However, just in case, we should try to make them stay outside as much as possible.”

Yan Lei felt relieved upon hearing that. However, he still got someone to come over to do a major clean up and sterilize the house the next day.



The following day, Song Chuyi brought Changqing to the hospital for a check-up and it was confirmed she was six weeks into her pregnancy. She must’ve conceived the baby during the honeymoon.

At night, Lin Yiqin and Changxin came over. Changxin and Changqing sat at the side, chatting about the things that pregnant women should be mindful of. Lin Yiqin glanced at the two of them and said softly to Song Chuyi in a sympathetic tone, “Congratulations, she’s officially been promoted to Empress Dowager.”

Song Chuyi turned his head around and saw a sympathetic gaze from Lin Yiqin’s eyes.
