It was Mo Jue that came to stop the fight. He called security and sent Qin Hao and Yu Qian to the police station. The reason was that they had just harassed a resident of that area.

Yu Ge placed a glass of water in front of Mo Jue and asked, “Why did you send Qin Hao in?”

Mo Jue asked, “Are you offended because I did that?”

“How can that be?” Yu Ge laughed dryly. “I wanted to praise you for doing a good job.”

“Oh!” Mo Jue looked at his watch and asked, “What should I do? Because of you, I’ve already missed dinner for the second time.”

“Oh…”

Mo Jue stared at her and did not say a word.

“Alright! Wait a moment.”

An hour later, Mo Jue looked at the three dishes and one soup on the dining table and was very surprised. “You can cook?” He thought that for a celebrity like her, she would never enter the kitchen at all.

Yu Ge’s tone was miserable. “It’s all for the sake of living.”

She really didn’t know how to cook. The household maid Wang was in charge of cooking in the Yu family. Since she was young, she had only cooked frozen dumplings, and they were still half-cooked.

It wasn’t until her third year that Yu Ge took on a variety show about food. The other guests were either tasting the delicacies or selling food at the snack stand. Yu Ge was unlucky. She was chosen to cook. Of course, the program team couldn’t really let her cook a table full of food. The post-production editing saved Yu Ge. However, after the program aired, Yu Ge was almost vilified.

She could only fake as much as she could. Yu Ge was defeated. In order to save her dignity, she pestered Wang for three months to learn how to cook.

Now, she had some achievements in her culinary skills. She basically made her own diet meals.

Mo Jue took a bite and praised, “It’s quite delicious.”

“Of course. I’ve been a food blogger before. You can’t question my professionalism.” Yu Ge had been badly criticized back then. Coincidentally, the company had a collaboration with the live broadcast platform. Xia Ran knew that Yu Ge had learned how to cook, so, she went with the flow and let Yu Ge try it out. Through the live broadcast of cooking, Yu Ge’s reputation gradually improved.

After dinner, it was already close to 10 at night. Naturally, Yu Ge could not let Mo Jue stay over. Just as she was about to chase him away, Mo Jue said, “My company is in City G.”

“So?”

“It will be dangerous to drive back at night.”

“I’ll help book a hotel for you.”

Mo Jue said in disdain, “The hotel isn’t hygienic.”

Yu Ge gritted her teeth. “You’re so rich, why don’t you buy a house in this city?”

Mo Jue said, “You don’t stay here often. If you buy it empty, you’ll have to pay the property fees. It’s a waste of money.”

“Oh… that makes sense. Please turn left on the second floor. The first room is a guest room.”

Only then was Mo Jue satisfied.

Early the next morning, Yu Ge was woken up by the doorbell. When he opened the door, he found that it was the Yu family’s parents and Yu Qian. Yu Ge was immediately startled awake.

“What’s the matter?” Looking at their aggressive manner, Yu Ge could guess that they were here to settle the score. “If Yu Qian was arrested because of Yu Qian, then I have nothing to say. She harassed the residents first.”

The Yu head of the household’s face was full of fatigue. He sat down and said, “What do you think about the marriage alliance with the Qin Family? Quickly withdraw from the circle and prepare to…”

“Withdraw from what circle?” Yu Ge immediately interrupted her father’s words. “This is my job. I won’t withdraw from the entertainment.”

“If you don’t withdraw from the circle, are you still prepared to be an actor for the rest of your life?” Her father stood up and pointed at Yu Ge as he scolded angrily, “Do you know what the people outside think of our family? I raised you up, and this is how you repay me?”

“Do you think you made a mistake of raising me?”

“I wish I had never raised a rebellious daughter like you. As expected, you’re not my biological daughter…”
