Luo Anning frowned, feeling hungry because she was too busy to grab a bite just now. She called for the waiter to come forth and ordered some food before asking in detail, “How am I supposed to help you if you don’t tell me what happened?”
She did not explain clearly over the phone and yet, all she did after they met, was plead for help. Since she wanted Luo Anning to help her, she had to let her know what was going on!
Ou Lixue finally realized that she was so fl.u.s.tered that she had forgotten what she wanted to talk about. After giving it some thought, she said, “Young Madam Rong, Luo Xinya’s modeling career ended after I exposed her scandals. I’m sure you know that I’m a n.o.body who can’t compare to Luo Xinya, the heiress of a huge corporation. The reporters and paparazzi are now crowding around her door everyday and no one in the family dares to leave the house at all. Her father is furious and so he’s begun to take revenge on me.”
“Recently, several of the movies I starred in have failed to pa.s.s the quality control checks of the broadcasting authority and plenty of commercials and endors.e.m.e.nts that I was involved in, have been inexplicably terminated. I barely receive any jobs now and I’ve even received threats and hara.s.sment. The callers have been warning me to be careful and sending me death threats again and again. I changed my number several times before but I couldn’t stop the calls from coming in…”
“I reported to the police about the calls but they didn’t have any records because the numbers were unregistered. The calls were all very short and hence, police can’t accurately find the location of the callers… ”
Luo Anning took a closer look at Ou Lixue, only to realize that she looked extremely pale and fatigued. It turns out she was feeling worried and panicky because of her ailing career and the hara.s.sment calls.
Luo Anning sighed. After all, Ou Lixue was the one who worked for her and she ought to give her a hand. She gave it some thought and said, “Okay, I’ll get Qiange to help you out with your career and it shouldn’t be a problem for Imperial Court entertainment company to give you a little boost. However, I’m afraid I can’t do anything about the hara.s.sment calls, even though I can send some bodyguards to protect you. Will that do?”
Ou Lixue asked gleefully, “Young Madam Rong, are you referring to CEO Mo of Imperial Court?”
“Yes.”
“Thank you, Young Madam Rong. Actually, I didn’t expect that you’d help me at first. After all, I was only a p.a.w.n that you could use… Thank you, I don’t regret helping you!”
…
Luo Anning strolled along the streets aimlessly after exiting the cafe. She rubbed her forehead in fatigue and thought to herself that Luo Xinya was probably planning her revenge because she was at her wits’ end.
Now, it was Ou Lixue. Would the next one be her?
The thought of it made Luo Anning laugh. She was no longer the pathetic Luo Anning who had nothing to her name. Although there were no feelings between her and Rong Yan, she at least got to enjoy some privileges as his wife. They would not be so brazen as to challenge the Rong Family, right?
“Ah, be careful!”
“Be careful of your head!”
“Hurry and dodge!”
Luo Anning was thinking about some matters when a group of people suddenly screamed by the roadside. She turned to see that everyone was staring at her with fear.
Before she could even react, she saw a huge shadow on the ground which covered hers. An ominous feeling struck her and she immediately dodged.
She was pulled to the side forcefully and rammed into a hard and firm chest. Next, she heard the sounds of a ma.s.sive explosion.
