Chapter 224: Chapter 224: It’s Not Right to Keep Pestering You After Getting Married

In the eyes of the vast majority of politicians, people are divided into two categories: stepping stones and stumbling blocks, which may very well include their own children.

Sometimes—

Sacrificing their children’s marriage to pave the way for their own political career is not a difficult choice.

Bai Yiqian continued, "I saw Han Jifeng outside the tax bureau the day before yesterday. He was concise in speech and didn’t seem like someone who acts rashly due to emotions."

"To openly accuse Xia Zhengguo, it shows he’s confident about bringing Xia down. At the age of 26 or 27, without much of a background, to do something like this, he must be a ruthless character."

Such a ruthless character would very likely put his future first.

Even if he couldn’t marry Lai Shengxia, becoming the son-in-law of the Lai Family by marrying another daughter of Lai Wenyan might not be something he finds unacceptable.

This kind of thing sounds absurd to others, but it’s nothing out of the ordinary in the political circle.

When faced with mutual interests, even blood feuds can be put aside.

Not to mention, it’s just about marrying a woman.

Bai Yiqian glanced at Song Baiyan and continued, "If you really don’t like that girl, it would actually be good for her to marry Han Jifeng. Once they’re married, she surely won’t keep bothering you. Just judging by Han Jifeng’s looks, he’s not bad."

"Speaking of which, that girl does look quite similar to Lai Shengxia at first glance."

Song Baiyan remained noncommittal.

Tang Li was unaware her marriage was being linked to Lai Wenyan’s future.

The next morning, she set off for the filming site, and Yu Sui was already waiting outside.

As they reached the entrance to Wentan Garden, Yu Sui suddenly said, "Once we’re on set, I’ll tell Mr. Feng about the rigged interview."

Hearing this, Tang Li didn’t say anything more.

Feng Qi arrived at the filming location after 10 a.m.

Tang Li was preparing to start shooting.

"I’ll go and clear things up with Mr. Feng," Yu Sui ran straight towards Feng Qi.

By the time Tang Li finished her scene, Yu Sui had returned, eyes red. As soon as the director called "cut," she handed Tang Li a thermos and tissues. Hesitant at first, Tang Li still asked, "Did Feng Qi scold you?"

Before she finished speaking, Feng Qi approached.

Tang Li thought he was coming to talk about the issue with Yu Sui and stood up from her chair.

Unexpectedly, Feng Qi began with, "If you want to have one of your classmates as an actor’s assistant, you can just tell me clearly. The assistant’s job is not difficult, and as long as your school agrees, neither I nor the company will refuse this request."

"..." Tang Li looked at Yu Sui.

Yu Sui guiltily turned her head away.

In the end, Feng Qi decided to keep Yu Sui on.

For the next few days, Tang Li peacefully focused on filming.

A week later, Feng Qi arranged for her to shoot the MV for Mao Yiming’s new song "Still."

"Still" is a sentimental slow duet about a man reminiscing about his former girlfriend after their breakup.

The shooting location was a Japanese-style villa nestled among bamboo forests.

Tang Li arrived half an hour early and saw not only Guan Xiao but also Mao Yiming himself.

Mao Yiming placed great importance on his new album, for which he was both the lyricist and composer. Even though he wasn’t required to be in the MV, he still came to oversee the shoot. As Tang Li entered the makeup room, he was sitting astride a chair, chatting and laughing playfully with Guan Xiao, who was getting makeup done.

Catching sight of Tang Li from the corner of his eye, Mao Yiming immediately stood up, "Is the lady here? It’s true that seeing is believing; you are even more beautiful in person than in photos!"

Tang Li asked, "You’ve seen my photos?"

"Didn’t they circulate online before?" the 25-year-old Mao Yiming looked like a high school student with his dyed silver hair and fashionable dress: "It was under the Weibo V account of the author of ’Original Sin.’ I even liked your post."
