Chapter 69: You Two Should Get Married!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Jian Dan arrived at Mengmeng’s house, she realized that it was already swarmed by countless reporters.
Some even set up tents. It seemed like they were in it for the long haul.
This matter had already blown up. It had to be resolved as soon as possible.
Under the gazes of many reporters, Jian Dan entered the building of Mengmeng’s apartment…
Fortunately, this was a gated community; only the owners were allowed to enter the apartment building. Otherwise, the entire corridor would be thronged with people.
Although Jian Dan was not an owner, she often came here. The security guards knew her, so she was allowed to enter.
When Mengmeng saw Jian Dan, she hugged Jian Dan and sobbed.
Jian Dan had known Mengmeng for so long; she was not a crybaby. But now, looking at Mengmeng’s swollen eyes, she knew that she must have cried for a long time after getting caught in the tabloid storm.
“Let’s go in first!”
Jian Dan realized that Fang He was also here.
“You guys…”
Jian Dan had guessed that something was going on between the two of them back then in school, but they did not admit it and were not a couple.
From the looks of it, the two of them should be dating now.
“Mengmeng, you’re too much. You didn’t tell me that you two are dating?”
“Jian, 1 didn’t mean to hide it from you. You know that Fang He is a rising star; he can’t afford any scandals.”
“What am 1 to you? To think that I told you immediately after I got married. Do you think 1’11 spout nonsense if I find out?”
Jian Dan was a little mad…
“Don’t blame Mengmeng. I told her not to tell you first.”
“What’s this got to do with you?”
This was between her and Mengmeng; he had no right to interfere. So what if you’re Mengmeng’s boyfriend? It’s the same even if you’re Mengmeng’s husband!
“Forget it. The most important thing now is to think of a way to resolve this matter.”
Jian Dan knew her priorities.
“What’s up with Fang Xiaoning?”
In Jian Dan’s opinion, Fang Xiaoning was definitely a key point. She might even become that breakthrough point.
“I filmed a web drama with Fang Xiaoning back when 1 was still a nobody. At that time, there were some rumors that died off very quickly. But who knew… Someone suddenly dug that up and said that we were a couple; and that 1 dumped her in order to climb up the ranks through Mengmeng?”
“So, there’s really nothing going on between you and Fang Xiaoning?”
“We aren’t even on familiar terms. After filming ended, 1 have seen her like, a few times at most. How are we even a couple? It is an absolute load of crap.”
“Then why did she say that she was in a relationship with you and you left her heartbroken?”
“Who knows?”
Fang He was also baffled. How did he suddenly become a scumbag out of the blue?
“Back then, 1 felt that this young lady was someone who would do anything to get to the top. She must be taking advantage of Fang He’s current popularity and wanted to step on his coattails.”
At the mention of Fang Xiaoning, Mengmeng was also passed off.
“You know Fang Xiaoning too?”
She did not expect Mengmeng to know her as well.
“How could I not know her? When Fang He was filming the web drama with her, 1 was still the assistant of Fang He’s manager. Back then, 1 saw her enter the director’s room in the middle of the night.”
“That makes things easy then. Since she’s this kind of person, there will no doubt be a second time. Leave this to me!”
The way to deal with such people was to give them a taste of their own medicine.
“Now, the two of you.”
“Us? What do you mean?”
Mengmeng did not understand what Jian Dan meant.
“Mengmeng, go to your room first. 1 have something to say to Fang He alone.”
Jian Dan already came up with a solution before she got here. But she needed to get some things straight first.
“Why do you have to talk about it alone? Can’t 1 listen?”
What did Jian Dan want to say to Fang He?
“Mengmeng, go on!”
Fang He said when he saw Mengmeng hesitating.
“But…”
“Don’t worry! 1 won’t eat him.”
Mengmeng was usually very straightforward, but she would become wishy-washy when it came to Fang He.
Was this what they meant by the more you care about someone, the more you could not think straight??
“Alright then!”
In the end, she reluctantly went to her room.
“Owing to the current circumstances, 1 won’t beat around the bush. I just want to ask you, if you had to make a choice between showbiz and Mengmeng, which would you choose?”
Fang He laughed when he heard Jian Dan’s words… “Showbiz is a complicated industry with a hodgepodge of characters! If Mengmeng hadn’t been by my side all along, I think I would have given up long ago. It’s because Mengmeng is by my side that 1 have the courage to keep my shoulder to the wheel in this industry.”
Fang He did not answer Jian Dan’s question, but this answer pleased Jian Dan even more.
“You two should get married!”
