CHAPTER 232: 232: MU QIUNIANG’S STRENGTH (BONUS CHAPTER FOR 180 MONTHLY VOTES)

Any conspiracy or trick, his wife could solve with just one punch.

"Wife, from now on I have to rely on you to support me!"

Jiang Nuo tried to snuggle up to her, but Mu Qiuniang said with a cold face, "I’m still angry."

Jiang Nuo, having hit a soft nail, smiled, "Wife, I’m serious, I really have to rely on you to support me from now on. Look, I am entirely yours, why are you still angry? Punish me however you want!"

Mu Qiuniang thought he had a point.

"Then you’re not allowed to touch me for a month."

Jiang Nuo was stunned, "Then what about the cultivation?"

Mu Qiuniang thought for a moment, "It doesn’t count during cultivation."

Jiang Nuo laughed at this, "Then we might as well cultivate every day from now on."

Mu Qiuniang felt something wasn’t quite right, but couldn’t find words to refute him.

Jiang Nuo was laughing hysterically next to her, hahaha... How could his wife be this cute?

"Let’s go, we’ve been out all morning, let’s head back. Our family’s all-purpose butler might have already prepared breakfast and is waiting for us!"

When Lian Nicang woke up, she felt like the whole world had changed. She had once ridden Jiang Nuo’s trending searches and suddenly became "famous."

Of course, it wasn’t said that she was very popular; being infamous is also a kind of fame. These days, as a celebrity, the fear is not being known. Whether infamous or genuinely famous, as long as you’re famous, it’s fine.

Once you’re "famous," people are willing to pamper you.

She lay silently tearing up on the hospital bed.

"My dear, what’s wrong with you? Why are you crying? You got drunk and made a scene at Jiang Nuo’s room door, nobody told you to do that. But it was a blessing in disguise, now you’re really famous, no one will not know you anymore. In the future, you can choose whatever movie or ad you want..."

Lian Nicang said nothing.

"Oh! There’s something else I need to tell you. You seem to have a bit of alcohol allergy, though mildly, but you better not drink if you can help it, or it will be bad for your health. If you secretly drink again, and end up lying in a hospital bed for days like this, don’t blame me, your manager, for not caring about you."

Lian Nicang turned her head directly, unwilling to listen.

"What’s wrong with you? You didn’t discuss it with me and acted on your own; I haven’t even asked you to account for it yet, why do you have this expression like I schemed against you? Hey, WE have to clear this up, I’m not taking the blame for this. You don’t know, if I really knew nothing, Brother Lu would have almost sued us..."

Speaking of Lu Mingchen’s anger that day, the manager still felt scared. Not because he was timid, but because Lu Mingchen entered the industry a decade earlier than him, with rich experience and broad connections, he had made countless stars famous.

Especially an international A-list star like Jiang Nuo, directly made Lu Mingchen a hotshot agent in the entertainment industry, with many entertainment companies trying to poach him.

But unfortunately, no matter how much money outside companies offer, Lu Mingchen and Jiang Nuo just stick to their old employer, unwilling to leave.

If he were a new agent with just a few years in the industry, even though he could manage artists independently, compared to Lu Mingchen, he was just a novice, there was no comparison.

As long as Lu Mingchen said a word, he would be done in the entertainment industry. He was doing well in the entertainment industry and didn’t want to offend such a gold-tier agent.

"You’re good, sleeping for several days, knowing nothing, while I suffered, scrambling around cleaning up after you. The company thought I acted on my own judgment and even called me in to give me a lecture. But how bad it was for me, I did nothing at all, and inexplicably took the blame for it..."

The manager was full of resentment, when he first took on Lian Nicang as an artist, she was so innocent, like a blank sheet of paper, that he couldn’t bear to bring her into the entertainment industry, fearing he would ruin her life.

But now, it’s fine, she didn’t need him to lead, she found her own way out.

Ah...young people these days are incomprehensible; they’ll use any means to get famous!

The manager actually wanted to clarify if what happened that night was intentional or accidental on Lian Nicang’s part.

But seeing Lian Nicang unwilling to talk about anything, he had no choice but to let her stick to the notion that that night’s incident was an accident.

"Nichang, did you hear everything I explained? That night was an accident, you must stand firm on this. As for why you were making a scene at Jiang Nuo’s door, either you were both rehearsing a script, acting so realistically that people misunderstood, or you were heartbroken, got drunk, and mistook Jiang Nuo for your ex-boyfriend..."

Actually, the manager wanted to choose the former reason; anyway, no one could explain the video matter clearly, it was all mysterious.

Then let this matter remain mysterious, no one could explain it, so stop explaining, let it become the most bizarre and elusive event in the entertainment circle, something people could still talk about years later, then Lian Nicang would never run out of topics, nor lose her buzz.

"The company’s stance is to let you choose the former, that’s also what they posted in the announcement. But from the message passed down from Brother Lu’s side, they want you to say you were heartbroken. So how you choose, that’s up to you."

The manager talked for quite a while and found that Lian Nicang hadn’t said a word and even turned her back to him; it was unclear if she listened or not.

"Nichang, there’s no need for this, whether this was a coincidence or not, it’s happened, it’s happened, we can’t erase it, why not turn disaster into good fortune."

"You don’t understand anything!" Lian Nicang finally spoke, turned around, and her eyes were red, clearly, she’d been crying.

"Yes, yes, I don’t understand anything, oh, dear me, this is the situation now, what else do you want?"

"I don’t know."

"There’s nothing like ’don’t know,’ it’s just about whether you want to do it or not. I’ve talked for so long, was it all nonsense? Did you understand? Let’s just move past this, and you’re about to become truly famous; all we need to do now is clean up your image, and everything will be okay, understand?"

"What about Jiang Nuo?" Lian Nicang asked with grievance.

"What about what?" The manager didn’t catch on.

Lian Nicang looked even more aggrieved: "I mean, what about Jiang Nuo?"

Her hesitant expression finally made the manager realize, and he slapped his thigh, exclaiming, "You can’t actually be in love with Jiang Nuo?!"

Lian Nicang bit her lip, didn’t speak, but her demeanor said it all.
