Chapter 69: Following Fate

  The report roughly stated that the boss of Yiwang Entertainment, carefully organized an 18th birthday party for his underage fiancée. At the end of the party, Le Xiaojie stood on stage and solemnly announced that she would be breaking off her engagement with Yan Yi, the boss of Yiwang Entertainment! Yan Yi, also known as "Yan Wang", reiterated the authenticity of this news and stated that from now on, he would treat Le Xiaojie like a younger sister, hoping that she could find her own happiness soon.

  Meng'er flipped through the newspaper a couple more times, making sure there was no news about herself in it. Then, looking at them with hopeful eyes that she would explain something. But no matter how sincere her gaze was, they didn't make a sound. Finally, they shifted their gazes outside the hospital room.

  Meng'er followed their gaze and saw a figure appear before her eyes. Not having seen each other for a week, the previously rosy complexion had become somewhat pale. Last night was too far away, and she couldn't see clearly that there was also a circle of heavy shadows around those eyes.

  "Dream..."

  Meng'er saw her standing at the door, hesitating and not daring to come in, with a look that made people feel uncomfortable. After all, they were the closest people to her since she came to this world, except for her family.

  "Explain it, and if you explain well, I'll let bygones be bygones!" Meng'er magnanimously waved her hand at her, with an air of "I'm giving you a chance to confess and get leniency".

  Mei'er walked in and helped Meng'er sit down on the chair beside her: "Then you sit tight! Are you okay? You scared me to death last night, but I couldn't leave!" Mei'er looked at Meng'er with a worried face, Meng'er felt that this girl who was usually carefree, seemed to have a layer of subtle sorrow surrounding her after not seeing her for a week.

  "I'm fine, just bumped into my tummy, it hurts a bit!" Meng'er said, still rubbing her own belly, looking a bit silly but also cute.

  "Actually, I didn't know Yan Yi any earlier than you guys. I've said it before, he never showed up even after we got engaged, so I had never seen him, not even in photos! You all know that marriages like ours are mostly for benefits! When Yan Yi wanted to get engaged with me, it was also to expand his business. Although my father didn't like his overbearing and arrogant personality, he saw his ability and the vast scope of his business, so he agreed to this marriage."

  The soft voice of Mei'er flowed slowly in this sickroom, and they quietly listened beside...

  "Meng Er, to be honest, I didn't agree with you being with Yan Yi. I felt that his intentions for being with you weren't pure! But when I knew he was in danger because of you, I couldn't oppose it anymore. Now, we've already ended things between me and Yan Yi, and I don't want this to affect our friendship!"

  After Meier finished speaking, the room fell silent, with no one making a sound.

  "Slap, emotions are being hit at 8 o'clock, where is such a bloody thing! " Speeches slapped on the table, "Let the past go, come, sisters, cheers to our eternal friendship! Long live!"

  Row after row of crows flew past outside the window.

  "I'm really curious, doesn't your hand hurt?" Zi Qi said extremely calmly as she looked at the excited Yan Er.

  "(⊙o⊙) Ah! I just realized now!" Yan Er said, blowing air onto the palm of her hand that had turned red from clapping, "Ziqi, you really shouldn't have reminded me!"

  Ziqi looked at Yan'er helplessly and asked a question that everyone wanted to ask but avoided: "So, are you still continuing with him now?"

  Seeing their expectant eyes, Meng'er lowered her head, closed her eyes and softly said: "Whatever fate brings..."

  Then Meng'er was discharged from hospital, returned to school, attended classes and made propaganda... Life returned to its former tranquility.

  If she didn't know that Yan Yi had used his 10% stake in Yihuan Entertainment as a bargaining chip to get Mei'er to annul their marriage, her life would probably have remained peaceful.

  "Meng'er, can you come over to 'Ying Bar' for a bit?" As soon as Meng'er picked up the phone, Yuwen Feng's impatient voice came through.

  "Yuwen brother, what's wrong?" Meng'er asked calmly as usual.

  "The boss is drunk and refuses to go back!"

  "Yuwen Ge, this isn't within my job scope, is it?"

  Meng Er's nonchalant attitude seemed to enrage the big broker, who yelled into the phone: "Can't you have a conscience? Do you know what he gave up to break off the engagement with your good sister? Ten percent of the shares in his hand! Do you know what losing ten percent of the shares means? It means that if someone with ulterior motives gathers all the other scattered shares, they can overthrow him from the entertainment kingdom he built with one heart!"

  "No one forced him to do that!" The castle built with difficulty in Meng Er's heart was blown up by these few words!

  "Fine, a dream in the vast ocean, Yan Yi is blind! I raised you to be such an ungrateful wolf, and fell in love with someone as heartless as you! Drunk and lying on the table, still muttering your name! Consider this call as if I never made it!"

  A burst of noise came, and the castle in Meng Er's heart collapsed instantly.

  She put on her clothes and, under the astonished gaze of Old Wang, arrived at the entrance of the 'Shadow Bar'. After repeatedly warning Old Wang not to tell her brother about her whereabouts tonight, she rushed into the bar. She didn't even have time to notice the colorful people around her, nor the strange glances they cast in her direction as they came and went.

  "Yuwen brother, where are you?"

  The bar wasn't as noisy as a regular bar, but it wasn't quiet either. Before Yuwen Feng could even answer the phone, Meng'er immediately grabbed the phone and rushed over, kicking a person who was holding a bottle of wine and trying to smash it on Yan's shaky body.

  That man was also half-drunk and half-awake, but after being kicked by Meng Er, he immediately sobered up. Seeing that Meng Er, a little girl, had kicked him into a stumble, and with a crowd of people watching on the side, he felt that his face and dignity were all lost. So, grabbing the bottle, he went to smash it onto Meng Er's body. However, before it even reached Meng Er's body, it was kicked by Meng Er's front paw and smashed into the corner of the table beside!

  "You stinky girl, did I provoke you? You hit me so hard!" the man asked with a scowl.

  "You didn't provoke me or offend me, but you're holding a wine bottle to hit him, that's just not getting along with me!" Meng Er pointed at Yan Yi who was pouncing on her.

  "Oh, so it's because of Brother Qing's injustice..."

  "Meng'er, you're here. Am I dreaming?" Yan Yi held Meng'er tightly in his arms, making her ignore the man who was still muttering to himself.

  "Yuwen Ge, I'll leave this to you! I'll take him away first!" Meng'er said as she saw Yuwen Feng walking out from one side, while another team of security guards was approaching from the other side.

  Yuwen Feng looked at these two people, pinched his eyebrows and said helplessly: "Let's go, I'll clean up the mess!"

  Meng'er dragged this drunk man out...
