Chapter 84: Rich Man’s Daughter? Can She Be Considered One?
“I believe that you will be able to resolve anything that comes your way,” Shen Yichen said. “The Lu family’s heir, Lu Jingzhi, is your lover, you have the well-established Guangying Media backing you up, and you also the founder of X Society, Ku Jie, as your brother. Why are you still frowning?”
“I am just disgusted by some people,” Jiang Yuning replied.
…
The scandal involving Lu Zongye and Huo Yuxi had just happened a few days ago. Right now, the internet was still filled with articles and photographs of them at their most depressing moments. However, despite all of that, Huo Yuxi still wanted to hold a press conference to announce her retirement from the entertainment industry. This time, she did not even inform Millennium Entertainment or Fu Yahui about her intention to hold a press conference. This was because she had a new solid backing, which was none other than her father, Huo Zhendong.
Huo Zhendong had asked his daughter not to be depressed and had already given her the privilege to do anything that she wanted to do.
Was she really going to depend purely on her father’s power?
Since the press conference was set to begin at two o’clock in the afternoon, Huo Yuxi arrived earlier and rested in the hotel’s VIP lounge.
Huo Zhendong had already arranged for a bodyguard to protect and look after her. Therefore, she would not be afraid even if Lu Zongye had decided to come to the hotel and make a scene.
She hated Jiang Yuning so much because she did not even have the chance to recuperate after her abortion surgery just so she could get back at Jiang Yuning. She finally realized that this world was an extremely cruel place.
The news of Huo Yuxi’s press conference spread like wildfire as soon as Ku Jie uploaded the news on X Society. By ten o’clock in the morning, everyone on the internet had already seen or heard of the news. When Millennium Entertainment and Fu Yahui heard about it, they were extremely shocked and furious.
What was Huo Yuxi up to again?
As soon as she saw the news, Fu Yahui quickly took out her cell phone and called Huo Yuxi immediately. “Why had you not discussed with me before deciding to hold a press conference? Do you no longer regard or have any respect for me as your mother?”
“Mommy, I was so uncomfortable and depressed after the abortion, but even as I was lying on the hospital bed, all you cared about was your own biological daughter. Did you care about my feelings then? Did you care if I was dead or alive? You did not, nor did you show any genuine concern for me at all. Therefore, I no longer want anything to do with you and I do not want to depend on you anymore. Since you do not want to take care of me anyway, I think this is the best way for us,” Huo Yuxi replied, full of hatred towards Fu Yahui.
“What kind of press conference are you holding? What are you intending to do?” Fu Yahui asked, full of anger and frustration.
“That is none of your business.” After saying those words, Huo Yuxi did not hesitate to hang up on Fu Yahui even though she was still scolding her over the phone.
She no longer needed to tolerate or allow anyone else to insult or bully her in the future.
In order to get rid of all of her fears, Huo Yuxi took the initiative to call Lu Zongye after hanging up on Fu Yahui’s call. “Don’t you want to see me? Come to my apartment at seven o’clock tonight. We will talk then.”
“Did you really abort my baby?” Lu Zongye asked Huo Yuxi over the phone.
“Do you really think you are worthy enough for me to keep carrying your baby? Of course I have already aborted your baby,” Huo Yuxi replied immediately.
Lu Zongye kicked the trash can in his hotel room in anger and yelled over the phone, “Alright then, Huo Yuxi. We will meet at seven o’clock tonight and we will finally make a clean break once and for all.”
Huo Yuxi sneered before hanging up the phone.
What else was she afraid of? She was fearless at the moment.
…
After arriving back at Luo City, Shen Yichen dropped Jiang Yuning back at the villa.
After working hard for the past two days for the filming, Shen Yichen wanted Jiang Yuning to rest well after taking a long hot bath. He would then pick her up in the afternoon to attend Huo Yuxi’s press conference at Royal Hotel.
After all, she needed to be well-rested to enjoy the drama.
Jiang Yuning agreed and once she got into the villa, she soaked in a hot bath to wash away all of her exhaustion. However, just as she was preparing to blow dry her hair, she suddenly received a phone call from Fu Yahui.
