“By the way, I didn’t tell her that I’m from the Yun family. If you dare to leak the news, you’ll have to bear the consequences.”

Hao Ming felt a chill run down his spine. The consequences that the president seemed to be telling him is to bring his head to him. He shrunk his neck and said, “Okay, president.”

Tsk, fortunately, had borrowed his sister’s romance novel overnight and read it. Wasn’t this the legendary president pretending to be poor to test people’s hearts? After Madam found out that the president was pretending to be poor, she flew into a rage. It was all a cliché in novels, the boss was really not creative at all.

However, Hao Ming still said kindly, “President, you don’t look like an employee…”

What kind of employee would have a driver drive a Maybach and a Cadillac every day? He even wore a six-figure custom-made suit every day. Even if Madam was a fool, she would be able to figure out her boss’s background after spending a few days together.

“If you want to resign, you can submit your resignation. I won’t shortchange you.”

What a sinister threat, Hao Ming shrank his neck and curled into a ball. He knew his good intentions would be mistaken for ill intentions.

“What do you think?” Yun Feng asked.

“Well, why don’t I drive my car for you for a few days? I’ll buy you a few more sets of cheap clothes?” Hao Ming asked tentatively. Although he was a special assistant and wasn’t poor, he followed the principle of saving as much as he could. He hadn’t changed his secondhand Santana yet, and it would stop working every few days.

Yun Feng did not refuse it. He nodded and said, “Make the arrangements.”

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to spend time with Huo Ru in his true identity. If she knew his true identity now, she would have slipped away long ago. It would be impossible for her to marry him, he could only tell her slowly later.

Huo Ru, who knew nothing about this in the guest room, hummed as she opened her suitcase and took out the things inside one by one to organize. She had already made full preparations, she would not continue to let these people bully her.

She took a comfortable shower, changed into a very imposing black skirt, and put on some makeup. There was going to be a tough battle later, and this was her first revenge.

Ba Lan had a magazine shoot at a studio today.

When Huo Ru arrived at the studio, Ba Lan was filming. As soon as she saw Huo Ru, Ba Lan immediately stopped the filming. A look of disgust flashed across her eyes as she said to the staff who were at a loss, “Can any Tom, Dick, or Harry be let in now? This kind of person who thinks highly of her, are you humiliating me by letting her in?”

No one dared to breathe loudly. After all, Ba Lan was the pillar of Star Picking. Huo Ru was just an unknown flower vase with a good face. If the two of them had a conflict, even a fool would know who Star Picking would side with.

Huo Ru didn’t want to waste her breath on her, so she sneered and said, “He Xi.”

Ba Lan’s expression changed drastically. She grabbed Huo Ru’s hand and walked out, saying to the others in the back, “I have something to tell her. You guys rest first.”

“Tell me, what do you want?” Ba Lan demanded as she led her to the lounge and sat on the sofa.

“What can I possibly want?” Huo Ru sneered. “I just want to take back what belongs to me.”

“The third female lead in ‘Treasure’?” Ba Lan said disdainfully. “I’m sorry, I’m just a small actress. I can’t help you with the role transfer.”

“Do you have nightmares now?” Huo Ru said, changing the topic.

“What?”

“Do you dream of He Xi crying to you at night? No matter how good a sister you are, you can abandon her just because you want to, right? Later on, an accident happened. Did you blame yourself for that once?” Huo Ru’s eyes were dark as she asked.

“What are you talking about? He Xi got lost when she was recording the show and accidentally fell into the pit. Everyone knows about this.” Ba Lan still wanted to deny it.

“Ah, really? Did you sweet-talk her when you stepped on her and told her that you would find someone to save her soon? Why didn’t you find anyone? Wasn’t it because she was the female lead?” In fact, what had happened back then was already conclusive, but Huo Ru had a bold guess from the clues Bai Duo had provided, she was just trying to trick Ba Lan. Seeing her reaction, she was even more certain of her guess.

“Nonsense! If you frame me again, I’m going to find a lawyer to talk to you.”
