Chapter 300: Chapter 298: What Are You Anyway?

She slowly slid down, seating herself on the carpet right below the sofa.

Her hair was soft, gently brushing the inner side of his thigh, almost making him gasp for air.

“Zhaozhao.”

He instinctively reached out his hand, but only touched her fluffy head.

The towel that was covering his eyes also slipped down due to his movement.

In the dim room, he could only see the small head heaving beside the sofa under his large hand.

The veins on his arm tightened even more, leaving him no choice but to grab the towel that had just slipped off and cover his already flushed cheeks.

He felt that sooner or later, he would die at the hands of Lu Zhaozhao…

It was only at night that Xia Wenjin learned Lu Zhaozhao had joined a new drama crew.

It was because her spoiler photos from the set were so appealing that they made the trending search, and that’s how she found out.

Xia Wenjin browsed through Lu Zhaozhao’s trending news, furrowed her brows, and immediately called Justin.

Soon, the call was answered on the other side.

“What’s up, Jin?” Justin’s voice was as gentle as ever.

Although he had lost interest in this woman long ago, she was still useful to him, so Justin naturally wouldn’t neglect her.

Listening to the gentle voice on the phone, Xia Wenjin took a deep breath, “I want to join a filming group, I wonder if you could help me…”

Her words clearly stunned Justin for a moment, but he still patiently asked, “Did you find a script you really want to shoot?”

Xia Wenjin immediately denied, “No, I saw Lu Zhaozhao’s trending search; she has already joined a drama crew.”

Upon hearing Lu Zhaozhao’s name, Justin’s eyebrows visibly furrowed.

Was this woman out of her mind? He had already told her not to provoke Lu Zhaozhao again.

Was her brain not working properly?

If it weren’t for her still being useful, he really wouldn’t bother with her.

As Justin was thinking about how to refuse her, Xia Wenjin spoke again, “I have no connections with Song Sinian, but if… if I were in the same drama crew as Lu Zhaozhao, I might be able to meet him.”

The likelihood of that happening was much higher than her finding Song Sinian directly.

Justin immediately understood.

“I see, I’ll try to arrange it for you, but… the role might not be good, you know, the drama crew has already started filming, and changing the cast at this point might…”

Before Justin could finish, Xia Wenjin immediately responded, “I understand, I’m just looking for a chance anyway, the importance of the role doesn’t matter.”

Right now, as long as she could get into the drama crew and get close to Lu Zhaozhao, that was enough.

As soon as Song Sinian appeared, she would find a way to take action against him.

Justin was right; everything Lu Zhaozhao had now was because of Song Sinian, wasn’t it?

She had always wanted Lu Zhaozhao to leave Song Sinian, never considering that if there were problems on Song Sinian’s end, Lu Zhaozhao would be even worse off.

But now it was different, she would make sure Lu Zhaozhao’s life became more and more miserable…

Having received a response from Justin, Xia Wenjin felt quite smug.

“Bang!”

The bedroom door was suddenly kicked open, startling Xia Wenjin.

Seeing Xiao Mo entering, her eyebrows furrowed, and she reluctantly turned her face away.

Both she and Xiao Mo knew that there was no real affection between them, and Xiao Mo was even perverted in that respect.

If it weren’t for the fact that he had her videos and photos, she wouldn’t have put up with this scum!

Xia Wenjin stood up, looking for an opportunity to leave the room, but Xiao Mo grabbed her hair and threw her onto the sofa.

“Xiao Mo?! Are you insane?!” Xia Wenjin’s tears flowed from the pain.

She glared at him furiously and raised her hand to hit him, but he grabbed it.

Xiao Mo’s eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Xia Wenjin, “Your dad, that old bastard, actually deceived me! The two mine veins he secured are all garbage! Now all the money is going down the drain!”

He was among the first to receive the news.

He had no idea how to explain this to the board of directors behind him.

Xia Wenjin felt pain from his grasp and kicked Xiao Mo, “What does his problematic mine vein have to do with me?”

The mine veins weren’t secured by her, so why take it out on her?!

Xiao Mo sneered coldly, “What does it have to do with you? Both mine veins of the Lu Family are ruined, the Lu Family is finished, what are you, a Lu family miss, considered now?”

“!!!”

Xia Wenjin’s heart trembled sharply.

The Lu Family was finished?

She had thought that the Lu Family was just having some financial turnover difficulties, never imagining they were on the brink of bankruptcy.

Xiao Mo grabbed Xia Wenjin’s chin, looking down at her, “Before, being the Lu family’s daughter had some uses, but now without the Lu Family, what are you considered?”

Xia Wenjin was completely panicked now because she had never considered this before.

She had left the Xia Family for the Lu Family to live a life of luxury.

And now, before she had enjoyed much, she was told that the Lu Family was about to go bankrupt?

Wouldn’t she be losing to Lu Zhaozhao then?

“It’s impossible! Impossible!” Xia Wenjin shook her head frantically, “There must be another way, there must be another solution, right?”

Seeing her frantic appearance, Xiao Mo frowned, “Given the current situation of the Lu Family, either a big fool is willing to invest in the Lu Family, or find a high-quality mine vein, mix the rough stones from it with those two veins, otherwise, it’s too hard for the Lu Family to revive.”

He had originally planned to climb up using the Lu Family’s mine veins, but unexpectedly, not only did he not gain any advantage, he was severely tricked.

If it’s revealed that there are issues with the Lu Family’s mine veins and the capital chain breaks, he would also suffer losses.

Thinking of this, Xiao Mo felt a headache.

His position in the Song Group was already not very stable. He had wanted to use this opportunity to show the board of directors his capabilities, but now with things turning out this way, he feared he might have to cover up for the Lu Family.

Xia Wenjin sat blankly on the sofa, muttering, “Investment, mine veins… Investment, mine veins…”

Suddenly, as if she thought of something, “Song Family, the Song Family has money, right? Can’t they help? Aren’t you with the Song Family? Xiao Jinglan is Sinian’s stepmother, can’t she help our family?”

She had heard from Lu Dagui before that Xiao Mo and his backers had invested money in the Lu Family.

So if the Lu Family went down, they would all lose money.

Even if Xiao Mo disliked her, he would help the Lu Family.

“Ha! You wish, don’t you remember what Old Master Song said on the wedding day? He had already removed Song Keren and me from the Song Family.”

Even Xiao Jinglan was no exception, it just wasn’t announced publicly.

Now, the only person with money and mine veins was Sinian.

During that mine vein auction, everyone fought tooth and nail, only Sinian, under his own name, picked up an unremarkable mine vein.

There were many who mocked him at the time for choosing beauty over the kingdom…
