Chapter 15: All that glitters
GoldLine Apartments, Penthouse B
"Ahhhh, Why won't she stay down" Feng Mimi shouted in anger as she browsed through the internet.
She had been too busy shooting that she had no idea that Xue Meili had gone from the most hated celebrity to the crowd favorite.
Much to her disappointment things had not be going as well as she expected first with shooting, the director had not been patient with her at all she had no idea why Star entertainment did not accept any sponsorship deals,
if they did things would have been this bad, even though Director Du didn't give prefrencial treatment at he was signed under Star entertainment so he always had creative independence in his movies and didn't have to please investors.
Now with Xue Meili change of fate like that wasn't enough she wasn't even invited to old master Jian's birthday banquet, no matter what she does the Jian's has refused to accept her into the family.
They treated her like a stranger, even after her engagement to Jian Mengyao. She wasn't even allowed into Jian Manor or the company for that matter.
Even after she and Mengyao had made their relationship public she had never been invited to family or company events. Mengyao's grand parents refuses to let them register their marriage much less have their wedding ceremony.
Even with Xue Meili's marriage to Jung Jianguo the Jian's refused to let them get married, she still remembered what happened the first time
Jian Mengyao brought her home for dinner, that had to be the most embarrassing moment of her life, ever since then she had never been invited to any of the family dinner, even now Jian Mengyao was having dinner with his family and she wasn't invited at all.
Fang Mimi was still deep in thoughts when her phone began to ring which pulled her back to reality. She picked the phone up from the bed and seeing that it was Mengyao, she cleared her throat and swiped right answering the call.
"Brother Mengyao " she said in a soft childlike voice as the call connected.
"Mimi how are you feeling now" Jian Mengyao said softly, Fang Mimi had said she was getting having a slight headache the last time they spoke over the phone.
"much better brother Mengyao, how are grandfather and grandfather, mother and father too" Fang Mimi said in a saccharine sweet voice that always made people like her.
"They are all good" Jian Mengyao said,Fang Mimi always has always been selfless. She always thought of others before herself. She never spoke ill of anyone even his parents and grandparents who never treated her well.
"Good, are you on your way back now? Fang Mimi said looking at the time. She knew just what to say to make Jian Mengyao love her. His parents and grandparents may not like her but he loved her and that was all that matters. They would change their minds after sometime.
"That's why I called tomorrow is our Ancestral worship so I will spend the night at the Jian family Villa. I will come back tomorrow night"Jian Mengyao said softly.
"oh okey, I will see you tomorrow great everyone and take care of yourself" Fang Mimi said softly trying to hide her anger.
"I will , sleep well see you tomorrow" Jian Mengyao said softly. This was why he liked Mimi she was very understanding and didn't take things to heart, He had no idea why his parents and grandparents disliked her, but he hoped that they came around as he really wants to marry Fang Mimi no matter what.
As soon as the call ended Fang Mimi quickly pushed down the content of the table startling the house keeper and maid that were preparing her dinner not that it surprised them.
They had grown accustomed to her temper tantrums, it was only the young master and the rest of the public that saw her as a precious white lotus and Boddhisva incapable of evil.
She was a manipulative, Vindictive little snake that pretended otherwise. The Housekeeper Aunty Chu had been with young master Jian Mengyao since he was little and followed him when he moved out of Jian family Villa so she was loyal only to the Jian family.
She had lived for many years and had seen different types of people so she was not easily fooled. She saw Fang Mimi for the pretentious gold digger she was even if the young master was blind to the obvious.
