Chapter 850 - Prepare for the Press Conference

In the SE Entertainment building, Xia Ning walked into Zheng Ziming’s office and sat on the sofa to pick up the script on the table.

Zheng Ziming came with two cups of coffee. Seeing her calm look, he frowned a little. “Asteria, you are good at choking reporters. Aren’t you afraid they will target you?” As he spoke, he put a cup of coffee on the table in front of her and sat across her.

Xia Ning closed the script and threw it on the coffee table. She picked up the coffee and took a sip. She looked at Zheng Ziming and said calmly, “If I don’t talk back to them, are they not going to pick on me?! Nowadays, everyone in the entertainment circle wants to dig up something big. Plus, the content this time is very interesting. Not only are there gossips between me and Qiao Yu, but there’s also the grudge between me and the Shen family. If I don’t say something harsh and don’t choke them, they will definitely think I can’t refute and be even more fearless. When that time comes, it will be even worse.”

Zheng Ziming nodded. “You’re right.” He looked up at Xia Ning. “So what do you plan to do?”

“Prepare for a press conference.” Xia Ning looked at Zheng Ziming with determination in her eyes.

Zheng Ziming frowned a little. “Have you thought it through?”

“I don’t want to think about this anymore.” Xia Ning put down the coffee and looked at Zheng Ziming. “If I hesitate when I should stop, I will be in trouble. So I choose to let nature take its course.”

“I knew you would be like this.” Zheng Ziming sighed. “Now that things have come to this, it seems like I’m talking a little too much. If I really wanted to, I should have tried to persuade you when you insisted on marrying Qiao Yu.”

“How do you seem to have more burden than me?” Xia Ning saw Zheng Ziming’s face of melancholy and could not help but laugh. “I’m an adult. I know what I’m doing.”

“Yeah, you were only 20 years old back then.” Zheng Ziming looked at Xia Ning with complicated eyes. “Don’t look like you know everything when you don’t know anything. I’m talking about feelings. You fell into the pursuit of love for him and I always thought you would wake up one day. I didn’t expect that after that kind of pain, you still chose him.”

Xia Ning looked to the front and chuckled. “Don’t you think this is fate?!”

“Asteria, you are not someone who gives up easily,” Zheng Ziming looked at her and said in a low voice. “Don’t let others affect your judgment. I don’t want you to regret it.”

“You are overthinking. I won’t regret it!” Xia Ning looked at Zheng Ziming and smiled suddenly. “I’ve already experienced the most regretful period of my life. I don’t think there’s anything else I can regret.”

Zheng Ziming sighed and did not say anything. He knew what she was talking about. Plus, he would always remember what she looked like back then. Despair, sadness, life worse than death!

“Isn’t that kid your weakness?” Zheng Ziming said suddenly. “Asteria, let me say one last time. Don’t let that kid affect your decision.”

Xia Ning did not speak. She picked up the coffee and took a sip. She said calmly, “I won’t. So, do what I say and get ready.”

Outside Shengshi Group, another group of reporters was waiting for Qiao Yu.

Regarding the president of Shengshi Group, interviewing him scared the reporters a little.

But the only way to get something out of him and raise their salary was to take him down!

A reporter went up daringly and blocked Qiao Yu’s way. He asked, “President Qiao, I heard that you and Xia Ning are in a relationship. Is this true?”
