Chapter 542: I Think I am a Little Crazy
“Why would I want to partic.i.p.ate in any variety show? I am going to go out and experience life soon!” Jiang Yuning replied as she stared at Vera. “Moreover, who said that I cannot show my affection for Second Brother? I can show my affection for him whenever I want to on my social media profile. However, I really do not want to talk or share anything about him to the public. Second brother is too handsome. He is so handsome and I am so fascinated by him. Therefore, he can only belong to me alone.”
Vera could only roll her eyes after listening to Jiang Yuning.
Jiang Yuning…was really possessive.
Moreover, Vera had planned to tease her but unexpectedly, Jiang Yuning started showing off instead.
However, Jiang Yuning did not notice Vera’s eyes flashed with worry.
“Alright then, I will accept fewer activities for you for the time being. Anyway, the media has already started to spread some rumors saying that since you have already disclosed your ident.i.ty as the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, you will definitely receive a lot of high quality resources from now on.”
Jiang Yuning shrugged.
It did not matter what people say because facts speaks louder than words.
In the past few days, everyone including the Ginger Candies would definitely be a little impetuous. Therefore, Jiang Yuning knew that she had to give them some time to calm down.
“There is also a rumor stating that Lu Jingzhi’s family and grandfather did not step out to acknowledge your ident.i.ty as the daughter-in-law of the Lu family. That means that your position in the Lu family is not very secure and it seems as though the Lu family is not supportive or optimistic about the relations.h.i.+p between you and the second young master Lu.”
In fact, there were still more black materials on this matter but Vera chose not to say too much.
On the other hand, Jiang Yuning understood this routine very well. “It seems as though every actress who marries into a wealthy and prestigious family would always be despised.”
“The entertainment circle is too unstable and those people who started this rumor are obviously jealous of you. By the way, Yuning, you don’t have to accept any of the invitations to go on any variety programs but there was also another invitation by K Agency for you to attend a midnight show with Jin Mingchen and the rest of the kids. Would you be interested in that?”
The reason why Vera asked Jiang Yuning if she would partic.i.p.ate in this show was because she knew that Jiang Yuning had a very close relations.h.i.+p with the boys.
What was even more important was the fact that Jiang Yuning needed Jin Mingchen to help her to look after Lu Jingqi in K Agency.
“When is the midnight show?”
“The night after tomorrow.”
“Okay, I will attend the show,” Jiang Yuning replied as she nodded in agreement.
“Remember that you are the one who agreed to this!” Vera replied as she finalized Jiang Yuning’s schedule.
Jiang Yuning looked up at Vera and she could not help but wonder why she looked so excited at this time. Vera did not tell Jiang Yuning how bold the show would be.
It was called the midnight show because the scale was very open and the interaction between the artistes and the audience was very open and hilarious.
The next day, Vera sent Jiang Yuning an agreement that she would not be angry no matter what happened.
Jiang Yuning was taken aback when she saw the contents of the agreement. She held the pen in her hands and she could not decide whether to sign or not to sign the contract.
“What kind of variety program is this? Why must I sign an agreement stating that I will not be angry?”
Vera was sitting opposite Jiang Yuning at this time and she replied, “You said that you are not willing to expose or reveal anything about the second young master Lu to the public, right? However, you should know that the Ginger Candies are also very interested to know more about you and your relations.h.i.+p. However, you are the one who agreed to appear on this variety program anyway! I did not force you to do it!”
“I really do not understand what the purpose of signing this contract is. What is going to happen?” Jiang Yuning asked as she continued holding the pen in her hand. “Vera, you are supposed to be my agent!”
“From the perspective of an agent, this variety program is really very popular and there were even people from South Korea who tried to purchase the copyright of this variety program. So, whether it was for exposure or for commercial purposes, as your agent, I think that you should definitely make an appearance in this program. Secondly, from my personal point of view, you should be returning the favor to Jin Mingchen for everything that he had done for you. Without Mingchen, you would never have met w.a.n.g Jing and Jingqi would never have achieved everything that he has today. Besides that, you are going to join the filming crew for the movie, soon. You will be gone for a few months so wouldn’t it be great for you to leave some memories for the Ginger Candies to look back on?”
Even so…
Even so, Jiang Yuning felt that the agreement not to get angry was really ridiculous.
Forget it…
Since she had already agreed to appear in the midnight show, then she would not go back on her word.
Therefore, Jiang Yuning gritted her teeth before she signed on the contract.
“I think I am a little crazy now and I am going to regret it later.”
“It’s too late for any regrets, Yuning. Moreover, you have always been very calm and composed whenever you appear on any variety programs. You are always very well prepared and you rarely ever make any mistakes. Why don’t you just leave it to fate this time?” After she was done speaking, Vera quickly took the agreement that Jiang Yuning had already signed.
Before she left the villa, Vera suddenly said to Jiang Yuning, “The host in charge of the variety program will come and pick you up personally tomorrow night. So, you better be prepared for it…”
“They are coming here?” Jiang Yuning asked as her eyes widened in shock. “You mean, they are going to come into my house?”
“Well, they are just visiting because they want to look around your house…”
Vera intentionally chose tomorrow night because she knew that the second young master Lu would be coming home then.
Jiang Yuning gave Vera a forceful smile but she really wanted to hit someone now.
“Just let them take a look at your life and then, they will not be so curious in future.”
In fact, Vera was doing this because of all the external reports that she was receiving. The public were spreading rumors that the only reason why Lu Jingzhi walked Jiang Yuning on the red carpet for the charity dinner was simply because he was a male chauvinist. They said that he did not love Jiang Yuning that much after all. Otherwise, he would have stepped up and make their relations.h.i.+p public a long time ago, before things got out of hand.
Moreover, they even had something to say about the fact that Lu Jingzhi verbally respected his wife’s career and his wish not to interfere in her career progression.
Some people a.n.a.lyzed this as evidence that the Lu family was trying to keep Jiang Yuning in check and that they did not really consider her to be part of the Lu family at all.
There were also a few people who came out and said that it should not be possible for a loving pair of husband and wife to achieve such a clear demarcation line financially. Was it simply because the Lu family did not want Jiang Yuning to take advantage of them?
There were also rumors that Jiang Yuning used some despicable and wicked means in order to get into a relations.h.i.+p with the heir of the Lu family before finally tricking him into marrying her.
The haters were really spreading a lot of rumors about Jiang Yuning at this time.
Vera saw many of these rumors but she did not want to show them to Jiang Yuning because she felt that it was really very insulting and humiliating.
Therefore, Vera thought about it after K Agency sent her the invitation and she felt that Jiang Yuning should accept the invitation to partic.i.p.ate in the program.
She knew that Jiang Yuning did not want to show their affection in public but Vera felt that it was necessary to fight back at times.
…
Later that night, Lu Jingzhi came home as soon as he got off from work.
When he saw Jiang Yuning lying in the living room in a daze, he was puzzled. “What is wrong?”
“Second Brother, why don’t you return to the Lu family mansion after you are done with work tomorrow night? I promised Vera that I will make an appearance on a variety program but then, they asked me to sign an agreement not to get angry. After that, Vera told me that the production team would be coming to pick me up from the villa tomorrow because they want to visit and take a look around our house.”
Lu Jingzhi stretched out his hand and rubbed her head gently before he said, “You are in a daze because of this matter?”
“Isn’t this a serious matter to you? This is an invasion of our privacy!”
“Hahaha. Alright then, I will listen to you. I will go back to the Lu family mansion tomorrow,” Lu Jingzhi replied as he smiled. “Moreover, there is nothing that they should not be seeing in our house anyway.”
“Of course, there is! Your study room and our bedroom.”
“Why should our bedroom be a secret?”
“Well…I will always think about it when I go to bed next time! I will always think that someone will be coming in with a camera!”
Lu Jingzhi: “I think that is very serious too.”
In fact, Vera had already reported this matter to Lu Jingzhi before he came home.
