On the other hand, Vera had just picked Yin Qingyu up from the airport and at this time, she was pulling her luggage for her as they walked towards her car.
“Vera, can I live with you? You know very well that I am afraid to live alone,” Yin Qingyu asked Vera as soon as they got into the car. Although it seemed as though Yin Qingyu was asking for Vera’s permission, there was a clear understanding that Yin Qingyu had already expected to stay at Vera’s place.
“Yes, of course. I have already prepared a room for you,” Vera replied immediately. She felt indebted to Yin Qingyu for saving her life a few years ago.
“Vera, can you show me what activities you have planned for Jiang Yuning in the next few weeks?”
Vera was stunned by the sudden question and remained silent for a short moment before she replied, “Jiang Yuning is already a blacklisted artiste. Therefore, I have not planned many activities for her.”
“I have a lot of intimate photographs of Jiang Muyang and myself. Do you think that Jiang Yuning would be implicated if I exposed those photographs to the public?” Yin Qingyu suddenly asked Vera with a smile on her face. “Or do you think I should not do that since Jiang Yuning is now under your management?”
Vera did not reply but at this moment, she felt that Yin Qingyu was acting very strange.
“You must be feeling exhausted from the long flight. We can go home, take a shower, and rest for a short while. I will then show you around the city and bring you out for lunch after that.” Vera tried to change the topic of the conversation.
“Vera, I hope you understand that I am very serious about this matter.”
After hearing what Yin Qingyu had just said, Vera hurriedly stopped the car before she parked by the side of the road. She then turned around to look at Yin Qingyu before replying, “Qingyu, this matter is clearly between you and Jiang Muyang. Could you not implicate my career in this matter?”
“Are you really just worried about your career?” Yin Qingyu asked, obviously not believing Vera. “I have already warned you that Jiang Yuning is very good at deception. It has only been a short while and you have already fallen for her tricks? What did she tell you?”
“Qingyu, I know that Jiang Muyang did not abandon you five years ago.” Vera went straight to the point. “I once saw a photo of you and an Englishman posted on the school’s website. Jiang Muyang was the one who posted that picture online. At first, I did not doubt you but I chose to give you a chance instead. I really trusted you until I heard Jiang Muyang’s side of the story.”
Yin Qingyu was stunned when she heard what Vera had just said,
She did not know what else to say.
“Five years ago, you were the one who cheated on Jiang Muyang. That was the reason why he broke up with you. He only returned to China a few months after the two of you had broken up. Therefore, he did not let you down at all. You were the one who had let him down and broken his heart in the first place. Moreover, Jiang Yuning is really an innocent victim in this whole situation, so I do not understand why you are targeting her. Why are you doing this?”
“Yes, I was deceived by you in the past and that is why I really hated both Jiang Muyang and Jiang Yuning. However, after spending some time with Jiang Yuning, I have finally understood that what is most important between two parties are trust, honesty, and mutual respect. Instead, all you care about is simply retaliation and revenge.”
“Vera, do not forget that I saved your life,” Yin Qingyu replied immediately. “I am our benefactor.”
“If you think that you can use that against me for the rest of your life, then you are very wrong,” Vera retaliated immediately.
“So, are you telling me that you want to go against me now? Well, then you had better not blame me for destroying your precious Jiang Yuning!” After that, Yin Qingyu got out of the car and grabbed her luggage from the trunk before she walked away.
Vera could only stare helplessly as Yin Qingyu hailed a taxi and left immediately. She did not know what else she could do.
Initially, Yin Qingyu thought that she would still be able to manipulate Vera and get her to destroy Jiang Yuning. However, she did not know that Vera would take Jiang Yuning’s side instead.
Vera then connected the Bluetooth headset on her cell phone before she made a phone call to Jiang Yuning. “Yuning, are you at home? I need to meet with you.”
“I am at Grandpa Tan’s house now,” Jiang Yuning replied. “You can come over here.”
Vera quickly turned her car around and headed straight to Grandpa Tan’s house.
Vera started tearing as soon as she saw Jiang Yuning. At this point in time, Jiang Yuning finally understood that her agent was already one hundred percent on her side.
“Walk slowly. You do not need to rush so much,” Jiang Yuning said as she placed the herbs aside and quickly poured a gla.s.s of water for Vera.
“Yin Qingyu is here in China. She is your brother’s ex-girlfriend. She looks very unstable, as though she is a ticking time bomb. She has said that she has many intimate photographs of her and your brother and she intends to leak it to the public so that she can ruin your reputation at the same time.”
“That was why you took the day off today? You went to pick her up from the airport?” Jiang Yuning asked immediately. “Do not worry so much. Just let her do whatever she wants to do.”
“But it was so difficult for you to finally rebuild your reputation and career. And you have finally gained some loyal fans…”
“So what?”
“Jiang Yuning! I have no time to joke around with you now.”
“My loyal fans have already gone through a hundred battles with me,” Jiang Yuning said as she laughed. “And well, I…I did not tell you something important. My brother is actually Ku Jie. If Yin Qingyu really intends to leak some information out to the public, I am certain that she would definitely reach out to X Society because they are the top and most reputable in China. When that happens, my brother would be the one dealing with her directly. There is nothing to be afraid of.”
“Jiang Muyang…is Ku Jie?” Vera asked. She was utterly shocked.
“Are you that surprised?”
It was only natural for her to be surprised! D Society was the number one tabloid site in Seoul, while X Society was the top tabloid site in China. It was enough to scare anyone working in the entertainment industry.
“My brother chose to become a paparazzo as he wanted to help me and protect me when I first entered the entertainment industry. However, he unexpectedly became a big shot in the industry,” Jiang Yuning replied as she continued fixing the herbs in her hand. “That is why you do not need to worry so much. You can be rest a.s.sured. However, I am really curious about why my brother would have such bad taste in women. How could he have dated such a horrible person? Would you like to tell me what she is threatening you with?”
Vera was silent for a moment.
“That is a very long story,” Vera replied with an inexplicable expression on her face.
“I will not force you to tell me the truth if you are reluctant to right now. I will wait until you feel ready to tell me the truth. As for my brother’s ex-girlfriend…do not worry about it. I will let him deal with her,” Jiang Yuning replied in a very calm manner.
Vera took a deep breath as she tried to ease the conflicting feelings in her heart.
She did not know if Yin Qingyu would really contact X Society as Jiang Yuning predicted. If that was the case, she could be at ease, but what if she decided to break the news to many different media at the same time?
“Do not worry so much. My brother will settle this matter. If X Society wants to intercept and stop any news, it definitely has the ability to do so. What I am more worried about is whether your friend is really mentally ill or if she has just been evil from the start. I just think that it is really pitiful and unlucky that my brother has gotten involved with such a terrible woman. Why must she keep trying to implicate him when he is clearly innocent?”
Vera was silent after Jiang Yuning asked the questions.
She thought about Yin Qingyu and she realized that besides having known her as her benefactor, she did not know anything else about Yin Qingyu. She could not even recall any good traits about her.
“This is all your brother’s fault for making such a bad decision!”
That was true indeed.
Jiang Yuning was also speechless at that moment.
…
After separating from Vera, Yin Qingyu quickly checked into a hotel nearby.
Her plan was to contact X Society and get them to expose all the blackmail material that she had on Jiang Muyang. She hoped that she would be able to implicate Jiang Yuning and then, that would definitely teach that traitor, Vera, a lesson.
However, although she had a very solid plan, she did not know that Ku Jie was now the boss of X Society.
The fact that Jiang Muyang was in fact Ku Jie could never be exposed because that would rob Jiang Yuning of the chance to ever make a comeback in the entertainment industry.
If the biggest paparazzi in China was controlled by Jiang Yuning’s brother, then Jiang Yuning and her brother must have planned all the previous news that X Society had released to the public. The public and netizens would definitely think that Jiang Yuning had the power to blow up any news that she wanted to. This was a very serious matter.
Therefore, even if Jiang Muyang knew that Yin Qingyu was trying to stir up trouble, he could never let her discover his true ident.i.ty.
She could investigate him but she cannot bully his sister!
Thus, he could only use two ident.i.ties to mess around with Yin Qingyu.
