Chapter 1: You Can Only Rely on Me

Guan Huai was getting engaged, but his fiancée wasn’t his girlfriend.

Jian Hongyou watched the news broadcast on her phone.

Guan Huai held the petite Lin Yushan in his arms, smiling happily at the camera.

“Yes, it’s as you see, I’m with Miss Lin Yushan, and we’re getting engaged soon. Please give us your blessings!”

The reporter asked, “But Mr. Guan, wasn’t your previous girlfriend Jian Hongyou?”

Jian Hongyou was a big name in the entertainment industry.

Not only was she the winner of the Golden Chapter Award for two consecutive years, but she was also known for her sharp tongue and fiery personality, earning her the nickname “Female Demon.”

Guan Huai smiled and answered the reporter’s question.

“Those are rumors, don’t believe them. Miss Jian Hongyou and I are just an artist and her boss, we’re not that close.”

Not close?

Jian Hongyou gritted her teeth in anger, almost throwing her phone to the ground.

But remembering the situation at home, where she needed money for everything, she swallowed her anger and put the phone away.

Guan Huai, the boss of Feifan Entertainment Media Company, the second son of the Guan family, was her boyfriend, Jian Hongyou.

No, he was her ex-boyfriend now.

She remembered the day when Guan Huai knelt before her, holding a bouquet of 999 roses.

He said with deep affection, “Youyou, I love you, be my girlfriend. In the entertainment industry, I’ll protect you, with me around, no one will dare to bully you.”

Hehehe, that was only a year ago.

He had turned into a knife stabbing her.

Jian Hongyou told herself to stay calm, she was a star, every move she made would be magnified.

But she couldn’t help it.

She threw on a long coat over her nightgown and ran out.

She drove while calling Guan Huai.

The first time, he hung up.

She wouldn’t give up, she called again.

This time, he answered.

Jian Hongyou asked directly, “Where are you?”

“Youyou, we’re not suitable to meet now.”

“Bullshit! Tell me where you are! Don’t worry, I won’t bother you, I just have a few questions.”

Guan Huai remained silent for a while, then said, “I’m at the Haihua Hotel, Youyou…”

Jian Hongyou hung up the phone.

Guan Huai held the phone, feeling a little angry.

Jian Hongyou was beautiful, but her personality was terrible.

Before, she was still the little princess of the Jian family, and he was willing to pamper her.

Now the Jian family had gone bankrupt, owing a huge debt.

Jian Hongyou was no longer a little princess, he had to dampen her spirits.

Screech!

The car screeched to a halt in front of the Haihua Hotel.

Jian Hongyou walked into the hotel.

She wasn’t wearing makeup today, and she was dressed casually, even wearing a pair of pink rabbit slippers, but she still exuded a queenly aura.

Standing in the hotel lobby, she scanned the area, found her target at a window seat on the left, and walked straight towards it.

Perhaps Jian Hongyou’s aura was too strong.

Before she even got close, Guan Huai spotted her, looked up.

Seeing her unkempt appearance.

He frowned and reprimanded, “Why did you come out like this? What if someone takes a picture and puts it online, the company will have to find a PR to clarify for you.”

Slap!

Guan Huai was slapped on the left cheek, before he could react, he was slapped on the right cheek again.

Jian Hongyou used all her strength, Guan Huai’s left and right cheeks were red, very symmetrical.

The commotion immediately attracted the attention of other guests.

“Hey, isn’t that the Female Demon, Jian Hongyou?”

“It’s really her! Wow, she’s hitting someone!”

“The one being hit looks like Guan Huai, the CEO of Feifan Entertainment.”

“What? This sister is hitting her boss? Is she crazy?”

“That’s right, it’s Guan Huai! As expected of the Female Demon! She’s so bold!”

“Didn’t you guys see the news? The Female Demon’s family went bankrupt, her dad jumped off a building and committed suicide, and her family is still in debt.”

“Then why is she still so arrogant, hitting her boss, isn’t she afraid of her boss giving her a hard time?”

“Who wouldn’t say so!”

“She and Guan Huai are a couple, right?”

“Didn’t you see today’s news? Guan Huai announced he’s with Lin Yushan, an artist under his company, and they’re getting engaged soon, saying he’s not close to the Female Demon. And this Lin Yushan is no ordinary person, she’s the daughter of Lin Dahai, the food tycoon.”

Guan Huai stared at Jian Hongyou in disbelief.

“Are you crazy?”

This woman dared to hit him!

Jian Hongyou’s beautiful fox eyes were now cold as ice.

“Guan Huai, when did you get together with Lin Yushan?”

Guan Huai glanced around, grabbed Jian Hongyou’s wrist.

“Let’s talk somewhere else.”

Jian Hongyou forcefully shook him off.

“Don’t touch me! I find you disgusting.”

“Guan Huai, we’re over. But I’m telling you, it’s not you who dumped me, it’s me, Jian Hongyou, who doesn’t want you!”

“Youyou, listen to me, it’s not what you think with Lin Yushan, the person I love is you.”

Guan Huai lowered his voice, speaking in a voice only they could hear.

Jian Hongyou looked at him in shock.

“Guan Huai, what do you mean?”

“Youyou, I can’t give you marriage, but my heart still belongs to you, I’ll still treat you like I used to.”

Slap!

As soon as Guan Huai finished speaking, he was slapped again.

After being hit repeatedly, Guan Huai couldn’t hold back his face, his face was very ugly.

“Jian Hongyou, don’t push your luck, don’t think I wouldn’t dare to hit a woman.”

Jian Hongyou slammed her hand on the table, splashing the soup.

“Hit me! You bastard, what do you think you are, you want to have your cake and eat it too, dreaming of a good life. Don’t even bother to pee on yourself and look in the mirror, your face is in bloom, everyone wants to pick it. I spit!”

Guan Huai’s face was green with anger.

He hated Jian Hongyou’s mouth, sometimes it could drive a person crazy.

Before, this mouth was used to anger others, today he also experienced it.

He warned, “Jian Hongyou, don’t be too arrogant.”

“What are you! You’re just a scumbag, you’re not in charge of me! I feel sick just looking at you talking!”

“Jian Hongyou! If you dare to be arrogant again, watch out for the consequences.”

“What consequences? Blacklist me? I’m not afraid!”

She, Jian Hongyou, had never been afraid of anyone.

Guan Huai dared to betray her, now he wanted to keep her as an underground lover, when had she ever suffered such humiliation.

“Jian Hongyou, I advise you to calm down, do you think the Jian family is still the same Jian family, are you still the same you? Now you can only rely on me.”

Guan Huai was confident that Jian Hongyou would come to her senses.

Her current situation could only be relied upon by him.

If she was sensible, she would weigh the pros and cons and curb her temper.

Jian Hongyou was furious, picked up the nearest bowl of soup and splashed it at Guan Huai.

Around them were gasps.

They didn’t expect the Female Demon to be so crazy.

Guan Huai, who had never been treated like this, had soup all over his face and body.

His face was cold and green.

He glared at Jian Hongyou, gritting his teeth, and strode out of the hotel.

If he stayed any longer, he didn’t know what kind of crazy things this Jian Hongyou would do.

Clap, clap, clap, there was applause behind him.

Jian Hongyou turned around and saw the person, she was stunned.

Yu Nanzheng?
