Aren’t You Afraid

“I want to challenge myself and see if I can play any sort of role,” Jiang Ling’er said with a smile. “Moreover, the female lead always has a halo around her.” “Aren’t you afraid of getting hate?” Li Yu frowned.

She replied, “If you have good acting skills, it’s normal that people would hate on you over your role.”

Li Yu was silent for a long time.

He then said, “You can take a look at the script first, then go to the audition. We’ll let Yan Jin decide on the final decision.”

“Alright,” she nodded. “Ah Yu, there’s one more thing. I want to study applied chemistry.”

He suddenly thought of a phrase, ‘take an inch and you’ll get an inch!’

He asked, “Do you have enough time for that?”

She replied, “Yes, I guarantee it wouldn’t affect my work or my studies. When I graduate from university, I still have to take the test to become a perfumer since I have a perfume company. Soon, I want to develop a perfume that belongs to it.”

“But if you do this, you’ll affect my time. Don’t you understand?” Li Yu said anxiously.

She suddenly felt a little guilty.

She said, “I just want to enrich my life. My foundation in science is pretty good; I just don’t know if my current major will affect my future exams.”

Li Yu complained in his heart. ‘You want to enrich your life, but what about me?’

“So, when do you plan to marry me?” he asked.

“If I can make some achievements in the entertainment industry after I graduate, we’ll get our marriage certificate then,” she said seriously.

Hearing this, he immediately became happy.

He asked, “But what if you don’t? How long would I have to wait?”

Jiang Ling’er thought about it seriously for a moment. She said, “If I don’t, let’s do it a year after graduation. No matter what happens then, we’ll get married as long as you still love me.”

“You said it yourself. You can’t go back on your words!” Li Yu was a little excited when he heard this.

“A gentleman keeps his word,” Jiang Ling’er said seriously. “Let’s high-five and swear!”

He held the steering wheel with one hand and high-fived her with the other.

Zhang Nuannuan returned to her bedroom and locked the door.

Mrs. Zhang stood at the door, trying to comfort her.

When Old Madam Zhang returned and heard Mrs. Zhang’s comforting, she became even more annoyed.

“Alright,” she said. “Don’t try to persuade her; just let her cry. She’ll be fine once she cries enough.”

Mr. Zhang was also very disappointed in Zhang Nuannuan.

He said, “You’ve been standing there for half an hour, so come and rest for a while. Don’t worry about her.”

“I’m just worried Nuannuan will do something stupid,” said Mrs. Zhang.

Old Madam Zhang said, “If you haven’t done anything stupid, that girl wouldn’t, either.”

“Come here quickly,” Mr. Zhang said impatiently. “It’s useless even if you stand at the door of her bedroom like this.”

Mrs. Zhang felt sad and walked to the sofa unwillingly.

“My daughter has a hard life. It’s because she was too innocent and let Li Yu play with her,” she said.

“Innocent? I think she’s just stupid. Besides, what did he do to her? Wouldn’t he know whether he likes her or not?”

When Mr. Zhang thought about it, he was very angry. He had lived for decades, but he had never been so embarrassed.

“Of course he liked her back then. Otherwise, which man would be so stupid as to obey a woman he didn’t like?” Mrs. Zhang said unhappily. “He wouldn’t admit it now because Nuannuan abandoned him back then, so he’s taking revenge.”

He angrily continued, “She needs to wake up and stop dreaming so much. They apparently really liked each other, but they never took a single photo over three years. What was she even yapping about?”

“Do you believe what those people said?” Mrs. Zhang tried her best to defend herself. “I think that little bastard from the Gu family said that on purpose!” “Then let your daughter produce the evidence!” Old Madam Zhang said with disdain.

Mrs. Zhang felt a little awkward. However, she still refused to give up. “Mom, the Lis bullied Nuannuan like this. Are we just going to endure it? If we just let it slide, the other families will not look up to our Zhang family in the future.”

When Old Madam Zhang heard this, she was also very angry.

“It’s all because of your precious daughter. She made her relationship with Li Yu sound so intimate that I really thought the two of them dated!” she said.

Mrs. Zhang added fuel to the fire. “Mom, the Lis went too far this time. Although Nuannuan is at fault, they humiliated us. We have to make them pay the price!”

Old Madam Zhang rolled her eyes at Mrs. Zhang.

“You can say that, but do you think the Li family is easy to bully?” she mocked. “Blame your daughter for being too stupid.. She didn’t leave any evidence for a three-year relationship!”
