The Secret of Second Marriage

Chapter 294 It's my turn to fight back

The wind and rain were too strong.

He picked me up horizontally, and my face was pressed against his chest. Only after he put me in the car did I realize that his shirt was completely soaked.

He fastened my seatbelt, then started the car and drove back to Beijing on the highway.

The raindrops hitting the window were so dense, the noise so loud it seemed like the world was about to end.

Mr. Jiang said in a hoarse voice, "Man, please don't leave me again next time, okay? I really need you!"

That email helped me a lot. I never imagined that everyone around me wanted to kill me for their own benefit.

But you alone pulled me out of the swamp and mud, and helped me a lot.

"I've decided on you for the rest of my life!"

"President Jiang, has the contract been signed? How did you handle it?"

I asked him.

You'll find out in another week.

President Jiang said with a serious expression, "Those who dared to set me up, I won't let them off so easily!"

I saw that this man was mature and aloof, and I found that he was increasingly adopting the demeanor of a business elite CEO.

He picked me up this time in a low-key black Mercedes-Benz van, followed by two escort vehicles.

Ever since he was tricked last time, he has been sweating profusely and now he always goes out with bodyguards.

As he drove, he said, "Man, we probably won't get back to Beijing until 12 o'clock. You can rest in the car for a while."

"it is good"

I say.

He played some soothing music for me.

I fell asleep without realizing it, and when I woke up again, the car had already arrived at the parking lot downstairs from President Jiang's building.

I heard the engine start and shut down, opened my eyes, and prepared to get out of the car.

After Mr. Jiang got out of the car, he went around to the passenger side door, unbuckled my seatbelt, and bent down to pick me up.

I told him I could walk by myself, but he insisted on carrying me upstairs.

He forcefully pulled me into his arms, his angular chin brushing against my forehead, his Adam's apple bobbing, and he said to me, "Man, no one has good luck all their life, nor does anyone have bad luck all their life."

Your ex-husband Xue Fan has used up all the bad luck you've ever had in your life.

From now on, I will spoil you and make you the luckiest woman.

I want to make you Mrs. Jiang.

His sweet words were so touching, but I'm not a three-year-old anymore.

I smiled and said, "No, I want to rely on myself to become the luckiest woman."

President Jiang went upstairs and unlocked the door with his fingerprint, arriving at the city center's top-tier residential area for the wealthy.

At midnight, the sky outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was completely dark, and the colorful neon lights of the entertainment venues in the distance lit up, making the city, shrouded in autumn rain, seem hazy.

I arrived at my apartment in Jiangcheng, in a high-rise building complex. I sat on the sofa, somewhat absentmindedly listening to the sound of raindrops hitting the window...

President Jiang's clothes were soaking wet; his black shirt clung tightly to his chest, revealing his strong physique and abs.

I said, "Your clothes are wet, go take a shower."

Instead of taking a shower right away, President Jiang went to the kitchen and made me a cup of ginger tea with brown sugar. He brought it to me in an exquisite white porcelain cup and said, "Man, drink some ginger tea first to drive away the cold and avoid catching a chill."

"Um"

I nodded, slowly stirred the brown sugar ginger tea with a spoon, took a few sips, and felt warm all over.

I asked him, "Mr. Jiang, have you been very busy with work lately? You look a little tired."

"A little tired"

After finishing his sentence, President Jiang rubbed his temples and said, "The company has had too many things to deal with lately."

I looked at him with a little pity; it really wasn't easy for him to get to where he is today.

President Jiang went back to his room to get a change of clothes and then took a hot shower.

After he finished washing up, he strode up to me, wrapped in a bath towel, and said, "Man, the water's ready. Go take a hot bath."

I didn't stand on ceremony and took a hot bath in President Jiang's cool, elegant, and tastefully decorated bathroom. While bathing, I unintentionally used his shower gel, an imported brand.

This shower gel has the scent of sandalwood and probably costs tens of thousands of yuan a bottle. I can't bear to buy it, but I won't hesitate to use Mr. Jiang's. He's much richer than me.

I quickly finished showering, changed into a silk slip dress, tied my long hair up with a rose hair clip, and went to the living room wearing slippers.

Mr. Jiang took a gift out of the bag and gave it to me.

He originally intended to give it to me after the project was signed, but when I opened it, I found a set of jewelry: a necklace, earrings, and a ring, all from the Bulgari brand.

This set should cost over a million.

I had only ever seen such large diamonds and such high-end jewelry when celebrities attended events.

Mr. Jiang hugged me from behind, a smile in his eyes: "Man, do you like it?"

"Quite pretty"

I say.

"I chose it myself, praise me!"

As Mr. Jiang spoke, he carried me to the bed, kissing, hugging, and embracing me. After we finished, he held me tightly in his arms, our skin touching, and I could hear his heartbeat.

We lay in bed together, and before falling asleep, we saw the city lights illuminating the ocean outside the window. Even in the dead of night, the lights of Beijing were still brilliant and dazzling.

"Sleep well, Man. No matter how hard things get, as long as you're by my side, I feel like life is as sweet as candy..."

President Jiang said.

I lay down and fell asleep peacefully, my head resting on his arm and my arms around his chest.

……

The next morning, the rain stopped and the sky was no longer as gloomy as it had been the day before; it was a sunny morning.

I had some things on my mind, so I woke up very early. I picked up my phone and saw that I had received many interview requests from reporters, and my previous address had been exposed.

Juan picked up her daughter, Tangtang.

The nanny gave her a few days off and sent her back to her hometown.

Zeng Wanwan called me and said, "Man, please don't come back! There are so many haters downstairs, they're holding eggs and rotten vegetable leaves and broadcasting their insults live!"

I know this is definitely a rumor; the person I know is absolutely not that kind of person.

Did you offend your agency? Why are they going to such lengths to release negative information and try to ruin your career?

"Are you safe wherever you are now? It's a pity I fell out with my father, otherwise I probably could have helped you."

"Wanwan, don't worry about me! Take care of yourself, don't let these opinions affect you, just focus on your studies and do well on the civil service exam."

I say.

I chatted with Zeng Wanwan for a while, then hung up the phone.

Juan, my older brother Yuxiang and many others are concerned about me and have asked about my situation, worried that I might do something rash.

I optimistically told them that I'm a woman who has already escaped the brink of death in marriage once. What kind of public opinion haven't I experienced? What kind of difficulties haven't I encountered? This little bit of dirt can't break me.

I am not able to go out.

President Jiang went downstairs for a run. The air on the street was exceptionally fresh after the rain, and the green sycamore leaves shimmered in the morning light…

There were still leaves on the ground that had been knocked down by yesterday's rain, and the cleaners were slowly cleaning them up.

President Jiang bought steamed dumplings, soy milk, and a bowl of my favorite beef noodles from the breakfast shop downstairs. He brought them back and put them on the table, and also made a cup of coffee.

He was about to wake me up, but I was already up, dressed in a white shirt and brown trousers, looking sophisticated, capable, and aloof.

I tied my long black hair into a low ponytail and put on light makeup.

Today it's my turn to take the initiative.

I, Jiang Man, am not one to passively take a beating.

There's an entertainment press conference today that I need to attend.

President Jiang said, "I'll go with you today!"

I said, "No, Mr. Jiang, there are some things I need to face myself."

President Jiang glanced at me, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

He offered to lend me his two bodyguards, but I politely declined.

I'm a celebrity now, and I can afford to hire my own bodyguards.

I made an appointment with my older brother Yuxiang. His company has sent two retired special forces soldiers to be my bodyguards, and they will protect me 24 hours a day.

After finishing breakfast, I threw the plastic bag into the trash can. Mr. Jiang kissed my cheek, dressed neatly, and went downstairs to work like an ordinary husband, carrying his briefcase.

Before leaving, he also took the trash from the bin.

These details in his life show that he is a very reliable man.

At 9 a.m., under the protection of two bodyguards, the black van drove to the press conference that was being broadcast live on television.

This press conference is a TV station press conference attended by our entire "The Spy Who Loved Me" production team. Because the show is doing so well, all the TV stations plan to record some programs this morning specifically to promote the series.

I am the second female lead in this TV series, and also one of the most popular actresses online right now.

Despite my numerous scandals, the TV station needed viewership, so they still sent me an invitation.

The crew members, including the director, all attended. They thought I wouldn't go. Recently, my agent and entertainment company released some negative information about me online.

I have a really bad reputation among strangers right now.

They thought I would go into hiding, but to their surprise, I arrived at the TV station on time to record the press conference.

The lead actress, lead actor, second lead actress, second lead actor, director... producer, all came to participate in this program.

I could sense that when I walked in, everyone's gazes towards me were quite complicated.

The male lead, Lu Zheng, was a really nice guy. He greeted me first, saying, "Man, come sit down."

The director was a middle-aged man who had directed many TV series. He smiled at me, which was a way of showing his support.

He said in a low voice, "Man, we all know about what happened to you. The things that were exposed online are complete nonsense, and you're not like the person we usually know."

In our line of work, we are often exposed to all sorts of gossip and scandals, and we also experience cyberbullying.

We all understand how you feel. No matter what outsiders say, on set you are a dedicated, hardworking, and talented actress.

That's enough!

The female lead in the previous drama started causing trouble halfway through filming because she didn't like me, so she was replaced.

Now the female lead is Shen Qi, who is low-key and has good acting skills.

She's only 25 years old, a graduate of the Beijing Film Academy, and a rising star.

She looks stunning in a cheongsam, exuding a hazy, graceful charm, and is hailed online as the most beautiful woman in a cheongsam.

Shen Qi said, "Man, come sit next to me. Don't worry, we're the whole team, the entire crew supports you!"

Hearing this, my eyes welled up with tears; I was deeply moved.

The entertainment industry is a complex arena of fame and fortune, with both good and bad people.

The director and actors didn't want the film to be affected by my negative news, so they've been working hard to help me save face.

I sat down next to the female lead, determined that today was my day to fight back...

The press conference was broadcast live online. The TV station staff held up their live streaming equipment and recorded the program for us. The number of viewers quickly exceeded 300 million.

Many fans and passersby who didn't understand the situation cursed at me in the live stream, telling me to get out!

The production team first introduced our entire crew, then invited the director and the male and female leads to give speeches, and finally everyone sat down together to talk about their feelings about the show.

The host asked everyone else about the process, but when it came to my interview, I was extra alert.

She deliberately made things difficult for me, steer the conversation to the top of the trending topics: "Ms. Jiang, I heard that you used to be just a housewife and have no acting experience whatsoever."

But you really have a talent for acting. This should be your debut film. The second female lead you played in this movie really resonated with audiences.

We've noticed online allegations that you abused your manager and acted like a diva. Could you please respond to these claims?
