The entertainment empire began with Liu Yifei's premarital pregnancy.

"Perhaps Director Lin has something to do, so he's not coming!"

Wen Yongshan looked at Angela Yang Ying with an uncertain tone.

Do you even believe what you're saying?

Angela Yang Ying did not answer directly, but looked at Wen Yongshan seriously.

"I……"

Wen Yongshan opened her mouth, but didn't say anything more.

"You..."

Angela Yang Ying looked at the unconvincing Wen Yongshan and shook her head: "Look at Liu Yifei, why is she able to answer reporters' questions so confidently?"

"Because she's pretty!"

Wen Yongshan spoke in a matter-of-fact tone.

Even as a woman herself, she thought Liu Yifei was beautiful; the nickname "Fairy Sister" wasn't given lightly.

"Is she pretty?"

Angela Yang Ying snorted: "Am I not pretty?"

Angela Yang Ying has always been confident in her appearance.

Even if Liu Yifei is as beautiful as she is, she confidently believes that she is no less beautiful than Liu Yifei.

Wen Yongshan: "Where's your face?"

Wen Yongshan really wants to ask Angela Yang Ying, in what way can you compare to Liu Yifei?

But she wasn't stupid; she knew she couldn't say those words aloud, otherwise their relationship would be completely ruined.

"In my opinion, just because Liu Yifei had a child, she acts like she's the head wife of the Lin family, as if anyone can't have a child..." Angela Yang Ying said with a look of disdain.

Looking at the competitive Angela Yang Ying, Wen Yongshan shook her head and sighed inwardly.

In reality, Wen Yongshan wasn't without ambition or fantasy; she had dreamed that Lin Bufan would only choose her and break up with the others.

But it's best to just imagine these things in your head.

No matter how well a single tree grows, can it compare to a forest?

She simply sees things more clearly than Angela Yang Ying. With a man like Lin Bufan, the more anxious you are and the more you try to compete, the more likely you are to end up with nothing.

On the contrary, if you are obedient and don't fight for anything, he might pity you instead.

She has already tried this.

Every time Lin Bufan came, she would never compete with Angela Yang Ying for anything. On the surface, she seemed to be at a disadvantage in front of Yang Ying, but she could feel that he was much gentler to her than he was to Angela Yang Ying in every aspect.

She could feel the pity Lin Bufan felt for her.

……

"Wow, this mansion is huge..."

Charlene Choi (Ah Sa) and Joey Yung (Rong Zuer) walked into the villa and exclaimed "Wow!" in unison upon seeing the huge mansion.

In Hong Kong, a place where land is incredibly valuable, even a 100-square-meter apartment can be considered a luxury home, let alone this seaside villa.

Although it's in Tseung Kwan O, the property prices here are slightly cheaper.

But this house would definitely cost hundreds of millions, if not hundreds of millions.

"Alright, come and try the soup I made..."

Gillian greeted the two women who entered with a smile.

"Hmm, that's really good..."

Charlene Choi (Ah Sa) stepped forward, took a bite, and made an exaggerated expression on her face.

"Is that so...?"

As Rong Zuer stood to the side, she walked over, picked up the bowl, and tasted it as well.

"Wow, this tastes so good..."

Rong Zuer took a bite and looked at Gillian with an exaggerated expression.

"I told you two, that's enough, is it really that serious...?"

Gillian Chung stared at the two of them speechlessly.

It's not like she hasn't made soup for them before; sometimes, they even complain that her soup is just so-so.

"Hey, tell me, what's going on between you and Director Lin? Are you really together?"

Charlene Choi put down her bowl, stopped joking with Gillian Chung, pulled her to sit down on the sofa, and asked curiously.

"Is that even a question? If we weren't together, why would Gillian invite us to the villa?" After saying this, Rong Zuer turned to Gillian: "Gillian, congratulations! You've finally gotten what you wanted!"

As best friends, Joey Yung and Charlene Choi are very clear about Gillian Chung's inner thoughts.

No one knows what kind of magic Lin Bufan cast on her, but Ah Jiao fell in love with him after their first meeting, even though they didn't have any deep contact.

"Tell me quickly, what's going on between you and Director Lin...?"

Ah Sa looked curious; she was most curious about the details of their time together.

"this……"

Gillian hesitated for a moment, then looked at her two best friends, Charlene Choi and Joey Yung, and decided to tell the truth.

"Actually, I haven't decided whether I want to continue being with him."

As Gillian spoke, she sighed, a hint of melancholy on her face: "Him, you all know..."

Deep down, she couldn't accept that Lin Bufan had other women besides her, but she was still somewhat unwilling to give up.

"If you ask me, you're overthinking it."

After Gillian finished speaking, Joey Yung looked at her and said, "Isn't this just how the world is? The more talented and wealthy a man is, the more likely he is to be a womanizer?"

"Are you sure that if he really marries you, he won't have other women in the future?"

"So I'm just going to agree to this?"

Gillian Chung looked at Joey Yung with some resentment.

She admitted that what Rong Zuer said was right and made a lot of sense, but it was hard to accept at the moment.

"Now tell me, what is it that you're not happy about?"

Rong Zuer looked at Gillian like a caring older sister.

"I……"

She was somewhat unwilling, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what exactly she was unwilling about.

"Fine, then let me ask you, are you dissatisfied with the money? Or the fame?"

Seeing Gillian's hesitant and unsure answer, Rong Zuer continued to press her for details.

"name!"

Gillian thought about it carefully.

In terms of money, she is not actually short of money, and she did not choose Lin Bufan because of money; after thinking it over, it was just for fame.

She didn't want to remain anonymous and unknown.

"That's easy. When you have time, you can go out for a meal with Director Lin alone and let the paparazzi take some pictures. That'll do it."

"But isn't she his rumored girlfriend?"

Seeing Gillian's puzzled expression, Joey Yung explained helplessly, "Let me ask you, which of those women Lin Bufan exposed weren't his rumored girlfriends?"

"Even Liu Yifei, if you really think about it, isn't she also his rumored girlfriend?"

Although Lin Bufan admitted that he and Liu Yifei had a child, the public always believed that Lin Bufan's relationship with Liu Yifei was just that—a fact. Lin Bufan never publicly acknowledged any woman as his girlfriend in front of the public or reporters.

It's very simple. Rumors are rumors, and the public can accept them, including Liu Yifei, who has already given birth.

However, if Lin Bufan were to publicly acknowledge that one of the women was his girlfriend, any further rumors about him would not be considered rumors, but rather infidelity.

Morally, Lin Bufan's position is untenable.

A scandal and cheating are two completely different concepts.
