EBE Chapter 267 May Kill You
Chapter 267 May Kill You
Fang Li woke up the next day to find a new message on her phone.
It was sent by Wen Yang, saying that her phone was broken.
Fang Li chuckled softly, not bothering to expose her, and simply asked casually, "When is Brother Tian coming back?"
A short while later, Wen Yang called back.
Fang Li packed her bag and carried her phone downstairs. "What's wrong with my phone? It was working fine, how did it suddenly break?"
Wen Yang sighed, "It's my fault, I accidentally broke it last night."
"Yeah."
Seeing Aunt Rong standing at the restaurant entrance waving, signaling her to go have breakfast, Fang Li shook her head, indicating that she was too late, and put on her shoes at the entrance before leaving.
"You still haven't told me when Brother Tian plans to come back?"
There was a pause on the other end, followed by Wen Yang's voice: "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be tomorrow."
Fang Li got into the car and raised an eyebrow: "Tomorrow, are you sure?"
Wen Yang: "He said it himself..."
Realizing what was happening, Wen Yang on the other end of the phone immediately fell silent.
Fang Li chuckled: "Oh, Yangyang, you kept such a big thing from me. Am I still your best friend?"
"I......"
"Tell me, was that man last night Brother Tian?"
".......yes."
Fang Li asked curiously, "So, you were at Tian Ge's house last night? You two are already living together?!"
"What cohabitation? No! What nonsense are you talking about!" Wen Yang immediately denied.
"If you're not living together, why were you at his house? Tian Ge suddenly said he had something to do and needed to go back to Haicheng. Could it be because of you?"
Seeing that she could no longer hide it, Wen Yang stopped trying to conceal it.
He sighed and said truthfully, "Pear, don't be angry if I tell you."
Upon hearing this tone, Fang Li knew that nothing good had happened.
His face darkened, and he said, "You speak first."
After a moment's pause, Wen Yang said, "I've been fired from my job."
Fang Li frowned: "...Why?"
"It's a long story. Anyway, I'm currently unemployed and facing a large amount of compensation. I've also canceled my rental agreement and have nowhere to live for the time being, so I'm staying with Yu Tian."
"To make a long story short! Why were you fired? Why did you have to pay compensation? Who are you going to compensate? Tell me everything in detail!"
Fang Li could feel how heavy Wen Yang's breathing was even through the receiver.
After a long silence, Wen Yang finally recounted the events that had occurred during this period, picking and choosing what to say.
It turns out that after Wen Yang was pressured by her family for money last time and she refused to give it, Wen Tao's marriage was called off. However, the woman was already pregnant and demanded that the promised dowry be paid before she gave birth, otherwise she would have the child aborted.
The Wen family couldn't come up with that much money, and their relatives and friends, knowing their temperaments, refused to lend them any. In the end, they had no choice but to turn their attention back to Wen Yang.
The Wen family somehow found out where Wen Yang worked, and Wen Tao and his father went directly to Wen Yang's company, forcing her to give them money. Wen Yang refused, and they kept pestering her for several days.
Later, he probably lost patience and went to Wen Yang's company to cause a scene.
The first time, the company even stepped in to help her resolve the problem, but unexpectedly, they caused trouble twice more later, each time more serious than the last.
On the last occasion, he even got into a fight with Wen Yang's colleagues, injuring people and smashing a lot of things at Wen Yang's company.
The company couldn't take the Wen family's antics any longer and had no choice but to kick Wen Yang out as well.
When Wen Yang was fired, the Wen family slunk away, leaving behind a mess that Wen Yang had to clean up, including paying for the injured colleague's medical expenses and compensating for the damage to the company.
Fang Li was furious just listening to it on the phone. She really couldn't understand how there could be such family members in this world!
Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning for harming and exploiting your daughter like this?
"Then what are you going to do now?"
Wen Yang sighed, then forced a lighthearted smile and said, "Of course I need to get back on my feet and find a job. I can't just sit around and do nothing!"
"What if the Wen family comes looking for you again?"
Wen Yang remained silent.
Fang Li remained silent for a moment, then said in a calm tone, "Come to the capital."
"Do not."
“I know you don’t want to live in the same city as your family, but Yangyang, hiding won’t solve all the problems. If they want to exploit you, they will find you no matter where you go.”
Wen Yang: "......"
"Come to Beijing, come to my side. I want to see how they'll come knocking on my door and smash up my company when they find out!"
“Pear, I know you mean well, but I can’t drag you down with me, I can’t go to your place.”
“You have to come to me! Yangyang, I didn’t call you back on a whim. Actually, I’ve wanted to tell you for a long time, but your job has been very stable, so I haven’t brought it up yet. But now, this is an opportunity for you two sisters to work together and create your own career.”
"Can......."
"No buts, Liyun is expanding her business now, and you can help me out. Yangyang, you can't bear to see me and my senior fighting this battle alone, can you?!"
"..." Wen Yang hesitated for a moment, then sighed, "Let me think about it."
Fang Li breathed a slight sigh of relief; as long as she didn't directly refuse, she still had a chance.
"Okay, take your time to think it over. I'll be waiting for you in the capital."
...The call ended.
The car then turned into the CBD area.
The Wen family.......
Fang Li looked at the towering buildings outside, her eyes cold.
-
In the afternoon, the first project of Pear Blossom officially started filming.
Although the scriptwriters assigned to the production team were Huang Yu, Fang Li, and Zhou Yufan, as well as the original scriptwriter Li Xiaoxuan and Feng Bo, all went to the scene.
After attending the opening ceremony, Huang Yu stayed on site, while the others left ahead of time.
Fang Li got into Zhou Yufan's car, and the two drove back to the city. In the car, Fang Li told him about the situation she had been gathering from Yang Miao over the past few days.
"Although Senior Jing hasn't made a statement yet, it's obvious that the girl is interested in him. She's been hinting at it in front of the media lately. If you're interested, you should hurry up and take action."
"Is that woman also from Wenxi Film and Television?"
Fang Li: "No, she's a newly signed artist with Yuguo Media, a student from the Performance Department of Peking University."
What are his plans lately?
"I heard that he signed two new endorsement deals, and the company has also arranged a variety show for him. Although he's a guest star, he should be in Beijing soon."
Zhou Yufan remained silent for a moment, then asked her, "If I were to directly confess my feelings to him, what are my chances of success?"
".......this......."
Seeing Fang Li hesitate, Zhou Yufan turned to look at her and asked, "What? You don't think we're a good match?"
Fang Li smiled awkwardly: "Do you want to hear the truth?"
"nonsense."
"I think the chances of winning are almost zero, and... Senior Jing might kill you."
“…” Zhou Yufan sighed.
Seeing that he seemed to be upset, Fang Li quickly comforted him, "But you never know, maybe Senior Jing has feelings for you too."
Zhou Yufan glanced at her.
Fang Li chuckled awkwardly, stuck out her tongue, and turned her face away.
"where are you going?"
Looking at the gradually bustling street scene outside, Fang Li said, "I'm going home. Just drop me off anywhere."
"Han Xi hasn't returned yet?"
Fang Li felt a little sad. "Yes, it was supposed to be a week, but a week has passed and there's still no sign of it."
In the end, Fang Li didn't leave her behind and took her directly back to the Half-Mountain Manor.
As soon as Fang Li approached the main house, she sensed that something was off about the atmosphere inside. Sure enough, upon entering, she found several people sitting in the living room.
