Chapter 213: 213: This is your explanation?
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have posted something like that on Weibo. Last night after dinner, I had to rush to another commercial photoshoot. When we finished, I was exhausted and starving, which was why I told Susan to get me a hamburger.
“She showed me a picture of the burger’s poster and asked if I wanted it. I said yes, and she bought it for me. However, when she brought it back, the burger looked extremely disgusting because it wasn’t wrapped properly, which ruined my appetite. I couldn’t take it, which was why I ranted about it online.
“I only found out about the gossip surrounding Jing Qian after posting the pictures. Then, the netizens thought that my post about burgers was me connoting about Jing Qian.
“Yunxiao, I’ve been by your side for so many years, and you should know what type of person I am. Even if it’s a celebrity that I dislike, I would never bully or boycott her. I really meant no harm towards Jing Qian. I thought of deleting it after, but I was worried that it would only make it worse, which was why I decided against it.”
As she finished speaking, Yan Meiqi came back to her senses from her remorse and looked at Yunxiao.
She was hoping that the ice-cold look in his eyes would have disappeared by now.
However, his eyes were just as cold as before.
Yan Meiqi’s mind instantly exploded.
As it exploded, a cold, chilly feeling went through her body.
She had never seen this side of Yunxiao, and in this instance, she had no idea what to do.
When Yan Meiqi was done explaining herself, Yunxiao asked her in an extremely casual manner, “Is this your explanation?”
Yan Meiqi was speechless, as this was not the reaction that she had hoped for.
Before the other party could answer, Yunxiao had already left.
“Yunxiao.”
“Yunxiao!”
Yan Meiqi called after him twice, but he continued to ignore her.
The look on Meiqi’s face became extremely awful.
At that moment, her manager, Susan, walked up to her, worried about Yan Meiqi.
She was aware of the fact that Yunxiao was the Chairman of Huanrui Entertainment.
“Maggie, that shouldn’t have been your explanation. Didn’t I tell you? If he became unhappy because of this matter, why didn’t you tell him the truth?”
“But… I have no other choice.”
Yan Meiqi felt helpless.
“I saw the look in his eyes and lost the courage to tell him the truth. I have been the obedient and sensible woman in front of him for so many years. I can’t be questioning him like the other women. Plus, is it possible for me to tell him that I’m jealous of Jing Qian when there is a chance that he may be interested in that woman, who he only met three days ago? I’m a woman with dignity. What if he told me that he fell in love with Jing Qian? What should I do?”
Susan was ten years older than Yan Meiqi. Back in those days, when she was at her worst, Yan Meiqi was the only one who helped her, bringing her along with her until they succeeded together.
Therefore, when it came to Yan Meiqi, Susan was willing to give her everything.
“But your explanation just now wouldn’t work for the Chairman.”
“Why?” Yan Meiqi asked, feeling lost.
“As an artist, would it be possible that you weren’t aware of everything that was happening online? Even if you don’t follow certain people, I would still be aware of what was happening online, and you would be informed that way. Therefore, it didn’t make any sense when you said that you didn’t know about Jing Qian being bullied on the internet.”
Yan Meiqi stayed quiet.
“You clearly knew about Jing Qian being cyberbullied and saw that the Chairman was treating her differently. You decided to post about her online, which further hyped up the situation. You definitely saw the Chairman’s post yesterday.
“Even when you had made yourself clear, he still decided to stand with Jing Qian. Maggie, this is just a woman that the Chairman has met three days ago. You already said it yourself, that you have always been a calm, understanding woman in front of him. Why did you dig your own grave, making one wrong move after another?”
