For a time, Ji Qingqing did not speak.
After a while, it was the ex-boyfriend who broke the silence by greeting her as he gazed at her vulgarly, “It’s been a long time since we’ve last seen each other. Qingqing, you are becoming more and more beautiful.”
“Why are you at my house?”
“Are you saying that I can’t come here unless I have something to talk to you about?”
Ji Qingqing chuckled, “Yu Yang, you don’t have to beat around the bush. We both know that you’re a sly fox. We broke up many years ago, we’re practically strangers to one another.”
“We were in a relationship before. Even if we break up, we can still be friends.”
Ji Qingqing was too lazy to even respond.
Yu Yang smiled, leaned towards her, and whispered, “I heard that you haven’t been doing well in the entertainment industry recently. I have a few acquaintances in that field. I also have some connections to Tianyu Entertainment. If you need help, just say the word and I’ll help you.”
Ji Qingqing was amused by his words and asked, “Oh? You know some people from Tianyu Entertainment?”
“Of course, and they’re all high-ranking people from Tianyu Entertainment. They have a lot of resources in their hands. I will introduce them to you in the future. As long as you know them, your future will be smooth sailing. No one can bully you, and you can have as many resources as you want.”
He was talking quite big.
“Why are you willing to be so helpful?”
“Why do you think so negatively of me? I just want to help you.”
“There are no free meals in this world,” Ji Qingqing glanced at him lightly and said, “what do you want in exchange?”
“It’s nothing much, I just recall our past. I regret failing to treat your feelings properly.” Although his tone was ambiguous, the meaning behind his words was obvious.
Ji Qingqing raised an eyebrow, “So?”
Yu Yang paused for a moment before he whispered, “Why don’t you give me another chance to pursue you?”
Ji Qingqing glanced at him. He was a handsome and rich young master, but people like him don’t think much of the women working in the entertainment industry. He doesn’t hold any good intentions, instead, he merely wants to play around with her for a while and then abandon her again.
Many new female artists had fallen into his hands. After he finished playing with them, he would pat their buttocks and leave them.
“I’m sorry, but I won’t fall into the same pit twice. If there is nothing else, then it’s best if you return early. I won’t make you stay for the meal.”
Ji Qingqing had just finished talking when Mother Ji hurriedly rushed over to them. She had been eavesdropping on their conversation.
“Qingqing, what are you saying? Yu Yang, don’t listen to her, listen to auntie instead. You should leave after you eat.”
“It seems like Qingqing doesn’t welcome me here, so I guess I will come again next time.”
“What are you talking about? The meal is already prepared! This is auntie’s home, so auntie sets the rules. Go wash your hands first and then go eat.”
Yu Yang was urged to wash his hands in the bathroom by Mother Ji. After he left, Mother Ji grabbed Ji Qingqing’s hand and whispered, “What are you doing?”
“I should be the one asking you what you’re doing! When did he come here?”
“Why do you care when he arrived here? Let me tell you this, your attitude towards Yu Yang better improve when he comes out of the bathroom. You should smile at him more.” Mother Ji looked in the direction of the bathroom and smiled, “From what I can tell, he still has feelings for you. He must want to chase you again.”
“But I don’t have any feelings for him.”
Mother Ji clicked her tongue and said, “Do you know how wealthy Yu Yang’s family is? If he plans on pursuing you now, then you should just accept him. Let me ask you, where can you find someone better than Yu Yang?”
Ji Qingqing did not speak.
