It didn’t matter if she left. Her mother, grandpa, and uncle on the maternal side all relied on the Song Family to survive. As long as the Song Family gave the word, they would go bankrupt overnight and lose everything.
Ling Sheng was the most incompetent little good-for-nothing in the family. She couldn’t even take care of herself, so how could she help others? She sympathized with Little White Bunny’s current situation. If she asked the Third Master, he might be able to help her. After making up her mind, she looked at Song Yiyan and comforted her. “I’ll help you think of a way. If you don’t like Dongfang Fan, try your best to delay the engagement date. I’ll inform you about breaking off the engagement. At that time, just listen to me.”
This matter could truly only be resolved by Third Master. They were real friends. What Song Family? It was just a family in this book. Ji Xing could probably crush them with one finger when he came over. What was there to be afraid of?
Their top priority now was to help Song Yiyan solve the problem and get her to awaken quickly. By then, she would not be this little white bunny, who was so weak that she could be easily manipulated, in front of her. The Song Family wouldn’t be able to threaten her either.
“Okay, I understand.” Song Yiyan wiped her tears and grasped onto her hand gratefully. She looked at her seriously. “Sheng Sheng, thank you.”
Ling Sheng said, “If you really want to thank me, please recover your memory quickly!”
She was also feeling anxious now. She didn’t know how many more days Second Uncle’s physical condition could be delayed. She urgently needed Little White Bunny to awaken and help Second Uncle change his fate so that he could live.
Her second uncle and auntie Ruoshui’s current circ.u.mstance even made an outsider like her feel anxious and upset. She really wanted the two of them to be able to meet each other, for reasons other than his illness.
Song Yiyan looked at her strangely, not knowing what she meant. She did not know how she could help her, so she asked in a low voice, “Sheng Sheng, what idea can you think of?”
“My mother, the Third Master, and my father can put pressure on your father. However, the most important thing is for you to hang in there on this issue. You can’t compromise or give in. Otherwise, no matter how much external force is exerted, we can’t help you. After all, that’s your father and your family. We’re just outsiders.” Ling Sheng felt that she had to make this matter clear in advance.
No matter how hard she worked on her side to help Little White Bunny put pressure on the Song Family, if she herself didn’t do enough and caved in and compromised in the end, no one could save her.
“Yes, I’ll definitely persist. I’ll persuade my mother.” Song Yiyan had seen her father hit and scold her mother with her own eyes, right in front of her. Her father didn’t love her mother at all. She had to persuade her mother to leave her father and divorce him.
She made up her mind and gave Ling Sheng a grateful look again before following her out. She saw that Director Chen Mo was the only one left in the office outside. She nodded shyly at him and greeted him ‘Uncle’.
“Uncle, have my mother and the others left?” Ling Sheng pulled Little White Bunny and made her sit on the sofa first.
“They’ve left. They went to the back to arrange the last round of rehearsals.” Nangong Lengmo took a look at Song Yiyan, whose eyes were swollen from crying. Why did she cry so hard? She looked quite pitiful. However, since the two young ladies weren’t saying anything, it wouldn’t be appropriate for a grown man like him to ask. He looked at Ling Sheng and said, “By the way, your little a.s.sistant is looking for you. She’s waiting outside. Do you want her to come in?”
That person called Little Ye, who followed Ling Sheng around, didn’t enter even though he had invited her in. She said that she would wait at the door of the office until Sheng Sheng was done with her work. She had also been crying until her eyes became swollen. What day is it today? Everyone he met was crying so pitifully.
Upon hearing that it was Little Ye, Ling Sheng’s eyes turned cold abruptly, and her whole body exuded a chill. The corners of her lips curled up slightly in a self-deprecating curve as she said, “Uncle, I have something to speak to her about in private. Please help me to take Yanyan away!”
The Nangong Family and the Song Family were long-time family friends, but Nangong Lengyu was so devoted to his film art career that he didn’t really interact much with anyone. Nangong Lengyu was usually the one maintaining their relationships with the various families. Therefore, he had only met Song Yiyan a few times and wasn’t familiar with her. When he brought her out, he even turned around and gave Ling Sheng a worried look. “Call me if something happens.”
Ling Sheng nodded and waved at him to leave quickly.
Little Ye had already entered. Her body was tense, and she didn’t even dare to raise her head. She didn’t dare to look at Ling Sheng at all. The extreme nervousness made her start trembling uncontrollably. She bit her lips tightly and waited for Ling Sheng’s questioning.
Ling Sheng sat lazily on the sofa, peeling an orange. There was a cold smile on her lips as her eyes swept over her. In a lazy voice, she asked, “Why are you looking for me?”
If Little Ye hadn’t come and automatically disappeared on her own, never to appear in front of her again, she had already decided to let her off on account of the fact that she had been with her for so long and had been thoughtful and dedicated toward her.
However, she hadn’t expected her to come knocking on her door. In this case, she couldn’t blame her for not giving her face.
“Sister Sheng Sheng.” As soon as Little Ye spoke, she choked. Without looking up, she knelt in front of her with a thud. Her voice was hoa.r.s.e, and it was full of remorse and self-reproach. “I’m sorry.”
Ling Sheng smiled as she broke off a piece of orange and threw it into her mouth. This tastes pretty good. It’s sweet and sour. “Why are you apologizing to me? How did you let me down?”
“I shouldn’t have drugged you.” Little Ye suddenly lifted her head, her face full of tears. “Sister Sheng Sheng, it’s all my fault! I did it! It’s not Chuhe’s fault. Please let him go! It doesn’t matter how you deal with me. Just let him go!”
“Little Ye, you like him?” When Ling Sheng had first met him, she had known that Little Ye was Yu Chuhe’s ‘wife’ fan and liked him a lot. However, she had never expected that such an honest and considerate a.s.sistant would actually betray her for a man.
“I love him.” When Little Ye thought of that person, her eyes were full of gentleness. “Sister Sheng Sheng, those reports must be fake. It’s impossible. It’s impossible for Chuhe to do those things. I know that the Third Master must have created fake videos and photos. Sister Sheng Sheng, this is all my fault. Can you please let him go?”
Ling Sheng didn’t know what kind of drug that sc.u.mbag, Yu Chuhe, had fed Little Ye to make such a well-behaved girl like her unwilling to believe that he was a sc.u.mbag when the truth was already right in front of her. She let out a cold laugh. “Little Ye, the Third Master isn’t that bored. Yu Chuhe was indeed the one who did those things. Do you know where he was last night after you drugged me?”
Little Ye said, “Sister Sheng Sheng, Chuhe definitely doesn’t think that way. Chuhe loves me. Chuhe had arranged to meet me at the hotel. That medicine is just a sleeping pill.. I saw that you’re too tired so I asked the hospital for a prescription.”
