Jiang Lingâer was eating the wontons that Wen Nuan had bought. She replied, âBecause she said that it was my turn next. Iâve read the script, so of course I know the plot. The third female lead would hit the female lead, and the latter would retaliate and teach the third female lead a lesson.â
Swallowing the wontons, she continued, âYou saw how ruthless she was when she hit Liang Bing. Moreover, she told me sheâd do the same thing to me in our scene. Do you think Iâll give her any chances?â
Yan Jin said with a gloomy expression, âYouâre really asking for trouble.â
âDirector Yan, does this third female lead have a strong backing?â Jiang Lingâer asked curiously. âI think sheâs very arrogant.â
Yan Jin replied, âSheâs a top student in the military arts. Her acting skills arenât bad, and she has connections in her family. Otherwise, why would I let her come? However, I didnât expect her to be such a troublemaker.â
Jiang Lingâer smiled and said, âI see. No wonder sheâs so arrogant. Donât worry, Director Yan. As long as she doesnât provoke me, I wonât provoke her either.â

On Monday morning, Bai Xue went to Jiang Lingâerâs company on time.
The person attending to her was Zhong Wuxi.
After confirming that she had paid the penalty, Zhong Wuxi signed the termination contract according to Jiang Lingâerâs instructions.
Bai Xue was surprised; she thought it would be very complicated, but it only took a few minutes.
She asked, âGeneral Manager Zhong, has the contract been terminated? You finished so quickly. Are there no other procedures?â
This was too simple. Bai Xue was afraid of being tricked.
Zhong Wuxi didnât view Bai Xue in a good light.
He replied out of politeness, âOur Boss said that as long as you pay the penalty, the contract will be terminated immediately. Now that it is in effect, CEO Li is no longer our Bossâs driver.â
So it was settled as long as the penalty was paid? Bai Xue laughed sarcastically in her heart. Money was truly powerful; you could do anything with it.
Bai Xue said, âAlright, Iâll take my leave then,â
âAlright.â Zhong Wuxi nodded. âTake care, Miss Bai. I wonât see you out.â

When Bai Xue walked out of Jiang Lingâerâs company, she suddenly felt refreshed. Li Yu didnât have to be that b*tchâs driver anymore.
Although she had spent more than half of her savings, it was a good thing that Li Yu could be freed.
Thinking of this, Bai Xue happily picked up her phone and wanted to tell him the good news.
However, after unlocking the phone, she suddenly changed her mind and decided to keep it a secret. She wanted to surprise him after picking him up.
Then, she put away her phone and ran to the roadside to call a taxi.

When she arrived at Li Group, despite already making an appointment, she had to wait in the lounge until the allocated time.
Bai Xue went to the front desk and told them the time of the appointment. Then, she walked to the lounge.
As soon as she walked in, she saw that Zhang Nuannuan was also there. Thinking that she could give Li Yu a surprise later, she confidently walked over.
âMiss Zhang, youâre here too,â she said.
âWhat are you doing here?â Zhang Nuannuan frowned in disgust.
Bai Xue smiled, âMiss Zhang, youâre very interesting. Why else would I be here? Of course, Iâm looking for Li Yu.â
After saying that, she fearlessly sat down opposite Zhang Nuannuan. She deliberately took out the contract and placed it where it could be easily seen.
Zhang Nuannuan glanced at it, knowing that Bai Xue was letting her see it on purpose. However, what was her purpose?
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Nuannuan pointed at the contract and said, âMiss Bai, why are you purposefully letting me see thisâ
âMiss Zhang,â Bai Xue proudly said, âIf you donât mind, you can take a look at the contents. Wouldnât you understand immediately?â
Zhang Nuannuan started to think. She wanted to arrogantly refuse, but her curiosity overcame her.
She opened it, feeling uneasy.
Originally, Zhang Nuannuan also wanted to look for Jiang Lingâer to solve this matter, but she didnât dare to privately decide something for Li Yu. Therefore, she came to make an appointment to test him first before deciding afterward. Unexpectedly, Bai Xue had already beat her to it.
How could she not be angry?
âBai Xue, who do you think you are? How dare you decide something for Li Yu?â Zhang Nuannuan gritted her teeth.
âMiss Zhang, I know youâre Li Yuâs ex-girlfriend,â Bai Xue said confidently. âBut no matter what, the past is in the past. Even if you donât admit it, youâre stuck in your relationship back then.â
Zhang Nuannuan had never been humiliated like this before. Her face instantly darkened.
âBai Xue, youâre really asking for a beating, huh?â said Zhang Nuannuan.
In the face of such a threat, Bai Xue wasnât afraid at all.
She disdainfully replied, âMiss Zhang, I advise you to calm down and not say such things. Youâre also a person who has received a high-quality education, so donât do anything stupid. You will only lose more than you gain in the future..â
