Loving Asia's Multi-Talented Queen: The Path To Stardom 151 Just Let Me Know

After Meng Lulu left, Shen Linqin said, "Li-jie, I really admire you. It's so hard to teach Miss Meng."

"Don't say that Linqin. I know Lulu will eventually improve."

"That's true, Li-jie. Still, you're really good. I hope people see that and stop with all the lies about you. By the way, Li-jie, Fas.h.i.+on and Glamour released their October issue this morning. Have you seen it? It's really great. You look so beautiful."

The excitement and happiness were written on Shen Linqin's face but Xu Jia Li had the opposite expression. She was worried about Zhen Nian since she always went against her superior just to stand for her.

She really never cared about whether people liked her or not. It was Zhen Nian's well- being that she cared about.

Six o'clock in the evening

After the shoot, Xu Jia Li was about to go back to her room when Shen Linqin stopped her, "Li-jie, look."

Xu Jia Li's eyes sharpened when she saw another article about her belittling Meng Lulu. It said that she caused too much pressure on the poor girl which affected Meng Lulu's performance in the shoot.

She clicked the voice clip and shock registered her beautiful face. It was her voice! However, she knew more than anyone else that she never said those words.

"Li-jie, who posted that?" Shen Linqin was on the verge of crying as she looked at Xu Jia Li, "The netizens are all cursing you. They say that they only need to find where you are and they will bring justice for Miss Meng and Qi Xenjin. Li-jie, I'm really frightened."

She didn't answer as the voice and the words kept repeating on her mind. She never said those words. She sneered when she realized who could be behind all these.

She walked straight towards her room while Shen Linqin pitifully sobbed behind her.

The news about her flirting with so many men was still new. She already knew who was behind it and all she had to do was be aware of her surroundings. She couldn't let these people taint her name with lies.

"Li-jie, look! The sales for Fas.h.i.+on and Glamour continuously drops compared to their issue last month."

Xu Jia Li sighed deeply as she gazed at the report. The life and success of the magazine issue depended on the first day. If the news circled around, it might affect Zhen Nian.

With all the bad news and rumors about her now, she knew that Zhen Nian's decision was suicide. If this lasted for one week, the company would be greatly affected.

"Someone really wants you to fall," Si Weimin clenched his jaw as he looked at Xu Jia Li's exquisite beauty on the screen. He didn't have the time to visit Xu Jia Li because he was busy with the company for the upcoming launch of the new product line, and the new place that he specifically arranged with Ru Tengfei.

He also didn't answer any call from Grandpa Si since he already knew where it was leading. He really didn't have much time to worry about the old man's concern about the Zhou or his obsession over marrying him to Zhou Bingbing.

Si Weizhe also visited him on the company in the morning just to tell him that Grandpa Si had been bugging him to come and visit him for the sole purpose of going to the Zhou. He just disregarded it as he continued with his schedule.

Since he learned that Xu Jia Li was Zhou Jiayin's daughter, his respect for him vanished in the air. He would protect Xu Jia Li, no matter who he had to face.

Everything that happened led him to the realization that someone was directly manipulating them. He knew that this had something to do with Xu Jia Li's revenge. And now, articles ruining Xu Jia Li were surfacing.

"I know," Xu Jia Li smiled on the screen as if Si Weimin was only a foot away from her, "But can they? They will have their much awaited retribution."

Si Weimin sighed upon hearing Xu Jia Li. It broke his heart that his beloved had to handle those nasty rumors on her own. He believed in his heart that Xu Jia Li deserved to live a peaceful and happy life, like a queen in a magnificent castle. He looked at her with loving eyes before he answered gently, "I miss you."

"I do, too. Just don't think about me so much. Knowing you're there for me is enough. Anyway, I might need your help in the future," Xu Jia Li smiled meaningfully that made Si Weimin chuckled.

He really admired a woman like her. It seemed like nothing would make her lose her cool, "I'll be glad to be of service. Just let me know."

Evergreen Hot Spring and Resort

It was already Friday and the shooting commenced as usual. The scenes were close to perfection that made Director Han happy since the movie would finish at the expected date.

The rest of the crew enjoyed the beauty of the spring resort since they had to stay there for the whole week. The news about Xu Jia Li didn't bother them since most of them only cared about how to enjoy their stay there.

On the other hand, Li Yun never failed to give sweet nothings to Xu Jia Li. She refused every time but to no avail, he still didn't stop doing it. She really wanted him to know that no matter what he did, he would never love him.

"Great work, everyone!" Director Han exclaimed happily as he stood from his chair. He approached Xu Jia Li and talked with her while everyone took their time to have their lunch.
