Chapter 249 - Please Maintain a Low Profile, Thank You (2/2)
At this time, Xue Li also contacted Vera to request that Jiang Yuning personally send a message to her fans.
After listening to Vera, Jiang Yuning decided to think carefully before she posted anything online. She did not want to be all over the hot search because of fan welfare.
“Why are you so cautious now? You were not like this before.” Vera could not help but laugh at Jiang Yuning. “When you did not have many fans in the past, you would always be wishing for more fans. Now that you have so many fans, you do not dare to post anything online. This is so contradictory!”
“I really want to do something that will be useful to the Ginger Candies. What is the point of me replying them with a picture of myself all the time? How would that benefit them? They already have access to so many of my pictures as long as they search the internet,” Jiang Yuning replied immediately. “Just wait until I think of a good idea.”
“Alright then, just let me know when you have something in mind. You will have to attend the annual dinner hosted by Guangying Media in two days’ time. I will start preparing a dress for you.”
“Please maintain a low profile. Thank you,” Jiang Yuning replied immediately.
“No problem,” Vera replied as she made an okay gesture.
Jiang Yuning was smart because she did not want to be in the limelight during the annual dinner. This was because she knew that the other artistes in Guangying Media were not people that she should mess around with.
…
At six o’clock in the evening at Bai Tingzhang’s private villa.
Two days had already passed since the incident involving Ling Fei, but at this time, the only way that Bai Tingzhang could get any news or information about Ling Fei was through the television. This was because the butler had already confiscated his laptop and cell phone, and Bai Tingzhang had no other ways to communicate with anyone else.
At this time, Bai Tingzhang looked extremely miserable as he was unshaven and ungroomed. He looked completely different from how he did just two days ago.
He was sitting in front of the television with his elbows on his knees, and there were endless despair and pain in his eyes.
“Butler, can you please just let me out of the house?”
“Young master, you have to listen to the master. Everything is a foregone conclusion. You do know what would happen if you choose to resist and disobey the master,” the butler replied as he sighed.
“Please just let me out so I can meet with Ling Fei once…just once…”
“Don’t even think about it.” At this time, Master Bai walked into the living room and stared at Bai Tingzhang with a cold expression on his face. “Just give up already. It is impossible for you to ever be together with her in this lifetime because you have already offended someone that you should never have offended.”
“Dad…who did I offend? I will beg him. I will beg him for his forgiveness. Please just let me go out already…”
“Beg him? Who do you think you are? You are not even worthy enough to shine his shoes for him!” Master Bai replied as he continued glaring at his son. “Bai Tingzhang, did you know that you offended one of the Lu family members? Even as your father, I still have to lower my head and be respectful of them whenever I see one of the Lu family members. How dare you go and provoke them directly?”
“The Lu family?” Bai Tingzhang asked in surprise. “I…I have never offended any of the Lu family members. Dad, is the Lu family mistaken about something?”
“Think properly. Who have you offended recently?”
No one. No one else except for Jiang Yuning.
“I just wanted to teach Jiang Yuning a lesson on behalf of Ling Fei. Besides that, I really did not offend any of the Lu family members…Dad…”
“The Jiang family and the Lu family used to have really close relations with one another. Even though the Jiang family went bankrupt five years ago, the Jiang family has already risen again after rebuilding their empire. It would be absolutely normal for them to help and stick up for one another, just like how it was in the past. You dare tell me that you did not offend the Lu family? Do you know that there are many other prestigious and wealthy families in this whole world? Who do you think you are to teach Jiang Yuning a lesson?” Master Bai reprimanded Bai Tingzhang without giving him any face at all.
“In future, I don’t want you to meddle in Ling Fei’s business anymore unless you want Ling Fei to disappear completely from this world without a trace. Listen to your mother and go for the blind date that we have already arranged for you in a few days’ time. Bai Tingzhang, I am giving you one last chance to have your own freedom. If you refuse to obey my words and continue being obsessed with that woman, then I can assure you that you will definitely regret the consequences of your actions. The Lu family—especially Lu Jingzhi—are people that you cannot afford to offend in this lifetime. You know what you should do from now on. Butler, return his cell phone to him.”
