After the man left, Mo Jianing hurriedly expressed her determination to Yu Linwan: "Sister! Sister, you must help me! Sister!"
Yu Linwan, with a somber expression, looked at this dispensable Mo Jianing.
Because of this useless Mo Jianing, she had offended the Young Master, leading to her losing everything, not even owning the company she personally founded anymore!
"Sister, I will be good, I will work hard! Sister! Help me!" Mo Jianing continued to plead.
She wanted to be famous! She wanted to be popular!
She couldn't let things continue like this; she wanted to make a comeback!
Yu Linwan snatched something from the table and smashed it at Mo Jianing's forehead.
Mo Jianing fell to the ground from the impact. She raised her hand to touch her forehead, saw the blood, and her eyes widened in disbelief.
"You damn slut! Useless! Idiot! Why don't you just die!" Yu Linwan screamed and lunged at Mo Jianing, raining blows and kicks upon her.
Mo Jianing was stunned and didn't dare to fight back, only shielding her head as Yu Linwan vented her fury like a madwoman.
Her pleas for mercy grew quieter and quieter.
The brutal assault lasted a full hour. Only when someone arrived to take over Yu Linwan's work was the out-of-control Yu Linwan forced out of Wanmeng Entertainment. Mo Jianing was directly sent to the hospital, narrowly escaping death.
Standing in front of Wanmeng Entertainment, Yu Linwan felt a chill and despair wash over her.
How could this have happened?
This was the company she had founded herself, Wanmeng Entertainment...
This was the starting point that carried all her dreams!
How could this have happened...
Turning her head, Yu Linwan saw an advertisement for K&S, filmed by Xia Qing Tian, playing on the television screen behind her.
Next month, K&S would be holding its fashion week exhibition, and their advertisements were everywhere during this period.
Yu Linwan looked at Xia Qing Tian's face, her gaze growing increasingly grim.
Just you wait...
She wouldn't let Xia Qing Tian have it so easy.
Even if she couldn't bring Xia Qing Tian down now, she would make Xia Qing Tian miserable!
There would be time for revenge; she would settle this score with Xia Qing Tian slowly!
Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, Yu Linwan took a deep breath and walked away with an air of arrogance.
Even without Wanmeng Entertainment, she was still a daughter of the Yu family, and the young madam of the Gu family.
She hadn't lost yet! Not lost!
...
As Yu Zixuan and Yue Chengfeng's wedding date approached, and after Xia Qing Tian confirmed that Yu Yinyin was well enough to return to work, she rushed to the capital two days before the wedding, having finished recording the character songs for Chu Yi and Shi Wu with Yu Yinyin.
The Yue family attached great importance to this wedding. The ceremony was to be held at the Yue Corporation's manor in the western suburbs of the capital, with the banquet hall's design plans exuding romantic luxury.
The Yue family had experienced too much in recent years, and they themselves wished to enliven the occasion with this wedding, inviting numerous media outlets, socialites, and prominent families.
The printing of the invitations alone involved ten new design drafts, finally decided upon by Yu Zixuan and Yue Chengfeng.
Upon arriving at the Yue family's residence, Xia Qing Tian also brought the wedding dress designed by Madame Camille and the bridesmaid dresses designed by Amiya.
Xia Qing Tian and Yu Zixuan wore them together. The wedding dress was white, and the bridesmaid dress was pale yellow, both incorporating floral elements. Their stitching and pattern designs were similar, complementing each other.
The wedding dress was more daring and luxurious, while the bridesmaid dress was much more modest.
"So beautiful." Looking at herself in the large floor-to-ceiling mirror, Yu Zixuan felt a sense of disbelief.
She was about to marry the man she loved.
She had also found her sister.
If there was any regret now, it was that her sister couldn't be her bridesmaid as they used to pretend when they were children.
When they played house as children, her sister had promised her.
In the future, when she got married, her sister would be her bridesmaid and accompany her.
If she got nervous, her sister would sing her the lullabies her sister used to sing her to sleep.
"You are indeed beautiful," Xia Qing Tian's voice interrupted Yu Zixuan's thoughts. "Little Aunt, on that day, you will be the focus of everyone's attention, the most beautiful bride!"
"Mm," Yu Zixuan flashed a bright smile at Xia Qing Tian. "Qing Tian, thank you."
"It's what I should do," Xia Qing Tian walked over to Yu Zixuan, holding her hand, and whispered so only they could hear, "She will also come that day. Although you might not see her, she will be watching you."
"!" Yu Zixuan looked at Xia Qing Tian in shock.
"After your wedding, she will undergo surgery," Xia Qing Tian said with a smile. "So, you must smile the brightest that day and put her mind at ease."
Yu Zixuan already knew about Gou Wen being poisoned and that Gou Wen had never stopped looking for her all these years.
It was she herself who had believed the organization's lies from the start, thinking she was left with no one to rely on, entrusting her life to the organization and exchanging loyalty for a slim chance of survival.
"Thank you." Yu Zixuan looked at Xia Qing Tian, her eyes slightly moist.
"We're family, why be so distant?" Xia Qing Tian smiled and gazed at Yu Zixuan.
At that moment, the door was knocked and pushed open, revealing a stunned Yue Chengfeng.
"Little Uncle, you look so dazed..." Xia Qing Tian couldn't help but tease.
"That's because my bride is too captivating. You can't blame me," Yue Chengfeng said, then sheepishly touched his nose.
Xia Qing Tian pursed her lips and smiled, leaving the room to the soon-to-be newlyweds, Yue Chengfeng and Yu Zixuan.
Xia Qing Tian returned to her room to change out of the bridesmaid dress and put it away. To her surprise, as soon as she entered, she found Gu Yaoyang there, which startled her.
Gu Yaoyang had been admiring Xia Qing Tian's bedroom. When he turned and saw Xia Qing Tian in the bridesmaid dress, his eyes were filled with uncontrollable admiration.
If this dress wasn't a bridesmaid dress but the wedding dress Xia Qing Tian wore when she married him, she would be breathtakingly beautiful.
"Why are you here?" Xia Qing Tian couldn't help but laugh when she met Gu Yaoyang's gaze. "You look even more dazed than my little uncle."
Gu Yaoyang then turned around, touched his nose, and smiled somewhat shyly.
"I'm going to the cloakroom to change. Wait for me," Xia Qing Tian said, then took off the bridesmaid dress and changed back into the dress she was wearing before trying it on.
After neatly hanging the bridesmaid dress in a dust cover, Xia Qing Tian emerged from the cloakroom.
"I've already dealt with the surgery room situation and made arrangements with a familiar private hospital to use their operating theater," Gu Yaoyang said, as he had come with a purpose. "Da Ya and Gou Wen have been temporarily placed in the hospital's inpatient department, with their identities being temporarily fabricated. They might be discovered if the period is too long, but for these two or three days, it should be fine."
"Thank you for your trouble." Xia Qing Tian knew that without Gu Yaoyang's help, she could have approached the Yue family, but with Yue Chengfeng's wedding, the entire Yue family was incredibly busy, so giving Gu Yaoyang a chance to perform was a good idea.
"It's no trouble," Gu Yaoyang replied with a slight smile. "Have you thought about how to resolve the subsequent matters?"
"Hmm..." Xia Qing Tian didn't dare to think too far ahead at the moment, especially considering the difficulty of the surgery. No one could guarantee that Gou Wen would make it through the operation safely.
All she could do was arrange the immediate matters. As for the rest, she could only take it one step at a time.
"Let's talk about it later," Xia Qing Tian said, curling her lips, and her mood grew heavier as she recalled the prophecy regarding Yu Zixuan.
