702: Chapter 702 Desperate Struggle!

Critical moment!

Bai Fengling clenched her fists with gritted teeth.

If she didn’t explode in silence, she would perish in it!

If she didn’t find a way to save herself, she was destined to be done for.

But how to save herself?

She was not capable of making the plane suddenly explode and perish with everyone else.

She also lacked the ability to chant spells, or use some technology, to erase everyone’s memory.

It was even less possible for her to weep and kneel for mercy like Shu Mengyan had done, which would only make the passengers more aggressive.

So…

After thinking it over, it still came back to the same conclusion: the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it!

The crisis she found herself in was created by Wu Jie, wasn’t it?

If she could get Wu Jie to speak up for her, to forgive her like he had done for Shu Mengyan, and cleverly defuse the crisis, then her own crisis wouldn’t be too much of an issue.

But the key was…

How to make someone who had been deeply hurt willingly help her again?

Weeping and crying for mercy with tears streaming down her face?

Obviously not!

Wu Jie simply wouldn’t fall for that; admitting mistakes and apologizing were useless.

He had already made it very clear earlier that he wanted to teach her a lesson, to ‘help’ her cleanse her heart, and start anew.

Wailing for sympathy?

What use was that?

It would probably only make Wu Jie despise her even more.

Who asked her to have pressured him so aggressively before, speaking sanctimoniously about giving Shu Mengyan a profound lesson, forcing her to transform and be reborn?

Now look what’s happened.

Begging Wu Jie while she’s stuck in a crisis is utterly useless.

So, if she wanted Wu Jie to help resolve the crisis, she would have to find another way.

What do men want most?

Money?

Face?

Power?

Women?

Bai Fengling asked herself introspectively.

Although money could make the ghost turn the millstone, if she had to pay off debts and pay taxes as well, she would be as poor as a church mouse.

Where would she have the financial capacity to bribe and move Wu Jie with money?

And as for face?

This was even more impossible.

After all, had her actions in colluding with Chu Yunxuan given Wu Jie face?

Wu Jie generously forgave Shu Mengyan, yet she criticized her unfairly.

Did that show him any respect or face?

Regarding power…

Without money, power, or background, what power could she offer Wu Jie?

The man was already the son-in-law of the great Tianyuan Tang Family and wasn’t even in politics, so what did he need power for?

Then!

Last of all, that left only ‘women.’

Otherwise, why would there be the old saying “even heroes find it hard to resist the allure of a beautiful woman”?

Bai Fengling considered herself to be an exceptional specimen among women in terms of beauty and figure.

Ever since her debut, countless prominent figures from all walks of life and sons of wealthy families had sought after her.

In the film and entertainment circle, it had long been popular to say:

“If you want to do well, find a powerful backer!”

Without a powerful sugar daddy, one would need a boyfriend with considerable strength.

At the very least, one would need to rely on a power with deep roots, like Bai Fengling used to do, relying on the Xu Family of Liuli City and the Tianyuan Tang Family in succession.

Even now, the reason Bai Fengling was untroubled and prospering in the circle

Wasn’t it because many people thought Bai Fengling was covered by the Tianyuan Tang Family and didn’t dare to provoke or make things difficult for her?

But in reality?

Bai Fengling was just bullying by borrowed power.

She hadn’t been a mistress to any aging sugar daddy, nor did she have a rich and powerful boyfriend.

It was also impossible for her to contact Tang Xiao to help herself, especially since she couldn’t make phone calls or access the internet on this commercial airliner.

But she had to find a way to resolve the immediate crisis.

Right,

Wasn’t her body the best asset she had?

Having spent so many years in the industry, so many men had harbored lewd intentions towards her.

Had Wu Jie repeatedly assisted and supported her just for collaboration, to shoot advertisement endorsements for a popular app?

Her exquisite face, perfect figure, and status as a big star.

Bai Fengling knew that among her peers, there were female stars who shamelessly climbed their way up.

But now…

It felt like a lifeline!

The only way to resolve the crisis and pull things back from the brink!

…

Ding dong!

“Dear passengers, our plane will soon land.

Please return to your seats, fasten your seat belts, open the window shades, and stow your tray tables…”

The chief purser couldn’t persuade the business class passengers, so she had to resort to this special method to convince them.

Regular travelers knew that when a plane transitions from high to low altitude, it inevitably encounters turbulence, and shaking is certain.

Moreover, after criticizing and ridiculing Bai Fengling for a long time, and with her hiding under a thin blanket like an ostrich too scared to face anyone, everyone was also tired of scolding.

Therefore.

Each returned to their seats properly, and finally, the commotion ceased.

Of course.

The chubby male passenger, whose phone had been reset, losing all contacts and important data, was still muttering incessantly in his seat.

She kept muttering to herself, determined to call the police, to find reporters, adamant about bringing Bai Fengling down in complete disrepute.

Hearing such words only increased the pressure on Bai Fengling’s mind.

She, of course, knew about the frequent trips from Tianyuan to Liuli City.

An airplane takes off by climbing to high altitude and then cruises in the stratosphere, flying faster and more steadily.

Before reaching the destination airport, it begins to descend slowly, and about twenty minutes later, it lands on the runway.

Once it lands, the passengers in the business class will have signal on their phones and can go online to send messages and break the news.

Therefore.

Life and death hang in these twenty minutes.

“Ah!

How can I even start speaking about something so difficult to voice?”

“How did those celebrities manage to get involved?”

“Was it passive or active?

If active, did they make it clear, or use body language and a suggestive tone?”

Although Bai Fengling had made up her mind to use her charms and entice Wu Jie to help her,

she was too inexperienced and clueless about how to express her intentions.

But the plane had already begun its steady descent.

One could feel the turbulence of breaking through the clouds.

Time was of the essence!

Not a minute, not a second could be wasted!

What should I do?

What can I do?

Bai Fengling was like an ant on a hot pan, thoroughly panicked.

With such pressing time, there was no time to overthink.

So…

Bai Fengling immediately took off her sunglasses, slightly lifted her head, and lifted a corner of the thin blanket a bit.

She looked tense yet longing, gazing at Wu Jie who was resting with his eyes closed.

“Jie, Jie?”

Bai Fengling called out softly, not daring to raise her voice too much.

Despite the engine’s humming noise in the cabin, she feared being overheard by others.

Wu Jie was neither deaf nor an insensible vegetative person.

On the contrary.

His reactions were sharper than any normal person.

Only to see Bai Fengling’s eyes, sending silent autumn waves.

But they still carried a hint of pity, like a begging dog, trying to rouse Wu Jie’s compassion to help her.

Their gazes met.

Bai Fengling’s affectionate stare proved her to be a powerful actress.

She could play the role of a lovesick woman at any moment.

When it comes to crying on command, she never faltered.

“Where are you staying tonight?

Can I come and keep you company?”

Bai Fengling racked her brains, and the words she finally uttered were not too direct, but filled with insinuation.

The word ‘keep company’ carried profound implications.

It could mean a dinner date, or staying late at work—smooth and versatile!

But what she didn’t know was that Wu Jie had plans to meet someone high-ranking and influential that evening.

“You keep me company?

I’m afraid you wouldn’t even qualify to enter the yard!”

Wu Jie sneered lightly and then closed his eyes again.

Bai Fengling was slightly shocked.

“No way?

Are there places in Liuli City I can’t enter?

Even if there are, as long as you’re willing to take me, wouldn’t I be able to go in?”

Her voice was soft and enchanting, tender and delicate, like the whispers between lovers, like the coquetry of a beautiful woman.

This wasn’t even insinuation; it was practically a proposition!

Bai Fengling, the renowned actress, what exactly was she trying to do?

Wasn’t it obvious?

At this moment.

Wu Jie couldn’t help but inwardly laugh.

Clearly, Bai Fengling was driven to desperation!

For someone who always held herself in high regard, her actions were unbelievable.

For Bai Fengling, who had no background or support, her own body was indeed the most valuable asset.

Wu Jie was human, not a deity.

In that instant, he was somewhat tempted, quite moved.

But it was just a momentary feeling, and he soon had no such thoughts.

And why?

Because it was obvious that Bai Fengling was trying to seduce Wu Jie to get him to help her resolve the crisis.

After succeeding, she wouldn’t dare to back out of ‘keeping him company.’

But was it worth it to help such a hollow and vain actress, so excessively greedy for wealth?

If he were single, he would have accepted without hesitation.

But having an affair…

Wu Jie had never considered it.

Comparing Bai Fengling with Fang Qingya, was the gap between them that wide?

Wu Jie had already rejected Fang Qingya, let alone Bai Fengling.

“Jie, in truth, when you first helped me out of my troubles with Xu Family in Liuli City, my heart was already secretly given to you!”

“I bought a house in the same neighborhood as you just to get closer to you!

But you only have eyes for Xiao, without a single improper thought about me!”

“Regardless, I have long considered myself exclusively yours, at your beck and call.

I was too concerned about you before, so that’s why I quarreled over trifles with Shu Mengyan.”

“You are magnanimous, won’t you forgive this little woman, please?

I know I’ve been unreasonably wrong, so you can punish me however you wish!”

Bai Fengling’s eyes were seductively languid, yet she looked pitiful…
