Sweetest Top Actress in My Home

Chapter 412:

I Can Still Be King On My Own!

It was drizzling in the middle of the night at Luo City.

Jiang Yuning and Vera were still waiting in the dressing room at the television broadcast station even though it was already one o’clock in the morning. At this time, Jiang Yuning suddenly received a phone call from Lu Jingzhi.

When Jiang Yuning saw the caller ID, she quickly excused herself as she said, “I am sorry but I would have to excuse myself for a short while. I have to answer this call.”

“Please, please go ahead,” Lin Cangxiao replied as he smiled.

Jiang Yuning quickly walked out of the dressing room with her cell phone in her hand and she walked into an unoccupied room before she answered the call. At this time, Jiang Yuning’s voice was extremely soft and gentle as she said, “Second Brother, didn’t I ask you to sleep first?”

“I am waiting for you outside the television broadcast station building. Let me know when you are done,” Lu Jingzhi replied calmly over the other end of the line.

At this time, Jiang Yuning felt warmth in her heart but she was also distressed for Lu Jingzhi. “Alright, I will do that. Did you drive here yourself?”

“If not?”

Jiang Yuning calmed herself down and she returned to the dressing room after hanging up the phone. After that, she secretly instructed Vera, “Please help me to look for a clean blanket, preferably a brand new one, and then please deliver it to the person waiting in the car downstairs. Second Brother is waiting for me but he does not like to turn on the heater in the car. I am afraid that he will catch a cold like this.”

Vera patted Jiang Yuning’s shoulder gently after listening to her instruction before she assured her, “Don’t worry. I got it.”

Vera then left the dressing room but when she came back about ten minutes later, she was not alone.

“Yuning, there is someone who wishes to speak with you.”

Jiang Yuning walked out of the dressing room as she looked up at the person who was with Vera. At this time, she realized that it was Su Jinhang, who was wearing a black cap and a black mask to disguise himself. “Sister Yuning, may I take up some of your time?”

Su Jinhang should have no idea that the production team was going to recruit him as a regular cast on the variety program. Moreover, Hou Da would not have disclosed the fact that Jiang Yuning was the one who recommended him for the role of the first male lead in <Yan Huasu>. Therefore, Jiang Yuning felt that Su Jinhang must be looking for her for some other reasons.

“Alright then, let’s find a convenient place to talk.”

Su Jinhang had stayed behind after his performance earlier and he had witnessed the entire confrontation between Lin Kaiyan and Jiang Yuning.

At this time, the three of them headed up to the rooftop of the television broadcast station. However, since it was drizzling, they stayed beneath the sheltered area.

Su Jinhang turned around and looked at Jiang Yuning as he sat down on the staircase. After that, he suddenly asked, “Sister Yuning, I guess you should have heard of my aunt, Su Xindi, before?”

“Just a little.”

“But no one knows that because of the nature of my aunt’s profession, my cousin sister met and fell in love with Lin Kaiyan. When my aunt was apprehended for her involvement in a murder, Lin Kaiyan wanted to call things off with my cousin sister so he would not be implicated in the matter or linked to Su Xindi in any way. Therefore, he forced my cousin sister to abort their eight-month-old fetus. After my aunt was sentenced to prison, my cousin sister became ill and depressed, and she eventually committed suicide at home. All that my cousin sister left behind was a suicide note, asking her family members not to blame Lin Kaiyan for her death...”

“And so...”

“So, that is the reason I requested to take a picture with Lin Kaiyan tonight. I thought that it would be a good tribute to offer my cousin sister since it would be her death anniversary soon. I wanted to give her something that would make her happy,” Su Jinhang explained himself. “But Sister Yuning, that man is really heartless. Sometimes, I really hate my cousin sister for falling in love with that jerk and ending her life because of him. Why did she get involved with someone who ruined her entire life?”

“I really did not know that you would both be related in this way. So, does Lin Kaiyan not recognize you at all?”

“No. It is probably because I was still very young when they were both together. However, I have a feeling that he would not even be bothered even if he discovers my identity. After all, Lin Kaiyan had always treated my cousin sister as one of the many girlfriends he has had. Even if my cousin sister was carrying his baby, he did not feel any guilt or responsibility at all.”

After listening to his explanation, Jiang Yuning suddenly understood why Su Jinhang would be so cruel to himself. She finally understood why he would force himself to approach Lin Kaiyan to ask for a picture with him even though he had been seriously humiliated by Lin Kaiyan before. He must have been struggling internally throughout the entire time.

“Then, did you enter the entertainment industry because of him?”

“Yes. Initially, I really resented him and I wanted to get into the entertainment industry just so I would have the opportunity to get closer to him. I wanted to see what was so great about him that made my cousin sister fall so deeply in love with him. Why was the media praising his acting skills every day and making him out to be such an inspirational role model to society? I am really angry that no one knows his true personality and also over the fact that he is trampling over everyone else just to attain his own goals and objectives. I feel really upset whenever I think about my cousin sister, but I did not want to expose Lin Kaiyan previously out of respect for my cousin sister’s dying wish. However, after what happened today...”

“I think that I was wrong all along. Why should I allow that scumbag to continue hurting others? Sister Yuning, do you understand what I am trying to say?” the young boy asked as he looked into Jiang Yuning’s eyes.

“That is why you have been struggling the entire night.”

Su Jinhang did not refute her words but he simply stood up as he handed an envelope over to Jiang Yuning. “I want to give you this weapon to use against Lin Kaiyan. I thought about giving this to others many times in the past but I can’t seem to trust anyone at all. I do not know why but I trust you, Sister Yuning. I believe that you have a clear conscience and a good heart in general.”

“This is the suicide note that my cousin sister left behind and a photograph of the two of them. I believed that you will use thing wisely to deal with that scumbag. My uncle has been all alone after the passing of my cousin sister. He feels very useless and helpless because he cannot get justice for his own daughter. I really do not want to see him fall into depression too...”

Jiang Yuning stared blankly at the envelope in her hand.

She was in a very complicated mood at this time.

“Wouldn’t it be more traumatic for your uncle if the reason behind your cousin sister’s suicide was made public now?”

“I think that my uncle will definitely be happier if he can see justice served for my cousin sister. Lin Kaiyan deserves to be punished for what he has done and I know that my uncle would want to see him suffer a fate worse than death. My uncle would definitely be happy to see Lin Kaiyan’s career ruined. Otherwise, he would not have given me this suicide letter and photograph that my cousin sister left behind. Just promise me that you would get justice for my sister...”

Jiang Yuning nodded when Su Jinhang was done speaking.

“You can be rest assured that I will definitely put Lin Kaiyan in his place. As for you, I hope that you will finally be able to let go of all the resentment and hatred so that you can move forward in life. You have a bright future ahead of you.”

Su Jinhang bowed before Jiang Yuning as soon as he heard her words.

“Thank you.”

After that, Su Jinhang left the rooftop, leaving Jiang Yuning and Vera behind.

“I really did not expect Lin Kaiyan to be such a big jerk,” Vera could not help but sympathize with Su Jinhang’s cousin sister.

Jiang Yuning subsequently opened the envelope and looked at the suicide note and the photograph that was inside. Her mood was greatly affected at this time. “When a woman meets the right man, it feels as though she is in heaven but when she meets the devil, it will seem as though she is burning in hell.”

“What would you have done if you were in her shoes?” Vera suddenly asked out of curiosity. What would Jiang Yuning have done if she did not meet Second Young Master Lu?

“The best way to avoid getting hurt like that is to maintain your own personal independence at all times. I can still accept and get over it if a stranger stabs me in the back for their own interest but I will never be able to get over it if my loved ones betrays me like that.”

“Although it feels really good to be protected by someone, I can still be king on my own!”

At this time, Vera suddenly thought of Miss Fu.

This meant that if Jiang Yuning was Su Jinhang’s cousin sister and Lin Kaiyan treated her like that...

Then, Jiang Yuning would definitely make sure that they would both perish together. This went without saying.

Jiang Yuning had always had this side of her, which was hidden to everyone else because she never needed to go to that extreme.

“Let’s go. Things are getting serious this time.”

After keeping the suicide note and photograph back into the envelope, Jiang Yuning and Vera headed back into the building.

At this time, Jiang Yuning decided to change her strategy because she had a trump card in her hands now.
