The actress is reborn and is chasing after her husband.

Hearing his extremely dissatisfied words, Mei Xiaofei sat on the sofa without even lifting her eyelids.

"You're not much better..."

"You... even if you don't want to give me face, at least put on an act for my parents' sake."

Mei Xiaofei took off the custom-made high heels that were making her feet hurt.

"Sorry, I never pretend with people... Besides, why should I give face to your parents?"

They never gave her the slightest respect.

Wu Qianyu roared again, "Mei Xiaofei, don't push your luck!"

These words finally prompted Mei Xiaofei to raise her cold eyes and stare at him: "I warned you before not to get engaged to me. Do you remember how you answered me? You said that our Mei family is blessed to have married into your Wu family and that I should not push my luck. How come... now you're putting on an act? I told you beforehand that my patience has its limits."

Wu Qianyu felt a chill from her eyes, and an inexplicable fear spread from the bottom of his heart. He knew the methods of the Mei siblings and dared not really anger her.

"Anyway, once the banquet is over, there's no need for us to meet again. Do whatever you want with me."

He turned to leave, but was stopped by Mei Xiaofei.

"I'll postpone the wedding as long as possible. I'll find a way to end this farce. Don't do anything funny either. If I find out you're up to something again, I won't hesitate to have it officially cut off."

"You're a fucking lunatic..."

Wu Qianyu wished he could disappear from this place immediately. He couldn't understand why his parents insisted on pairing him up with her. They were just perverts.

In the large lounge, Mei Xiaofei was the only one left for a moment.

She lay half-reclined on the sofa, feeling utterly exhausted.

Just as I was drifting off to sleep, there was a knock on the door.

She kept her eyes closed, motionless, and responded in a low voice, "Come in."

The person pushed open the door and entered, walking carefully and silently.

It's Li Li, the newly hired assistant.

"President Mei..."

"Um…"

"I'll bring you the phone."

Li Li was somewhat afraid of her cold indifference, and spoke cautiously and timidly.

"Ah."

Mei Xiaofei frowned, rubbing her throbbing head from time to time.

"Then I won't disturb your rest any longer..."

Li Li gently placed her phone on the coffee table closest to her.

Just as she turned to leave, she hesitated for a moment before saying, "Ms. Mei, a lady who claimed to be your former assistant called a while ago, saying she needed to speak with you..."

Mei Xiaofei seemed to have a switch flipped, suddenly sitting up as if struck by an electric current, her whole demeanor becoming unusual.

She picked up her phone, unlocked it, and checked the call log; the number was indeed hers.

Even though she deleted the contact information, she still remembered the new number she had changed to in the last two years.

"You go out first."

"Yes."

Li Li nodded in acknowledgment and turned to leave.

Mei Xiaofei tapped the number but didn't call back immediately.

Given their current estranged relationship, the fact that she would call him means there must be something else going on…

When it was time for the newlyweds to toast the guests with their parents, the staff came to the lounge looking for Mei Xiaofei, but she had already disappeared, leaving only her changed dress.

The toasting ceremony had to be cancelled, and an indignant Wu Qianyu smoked in the corridor outside the hotel lounge, complaining to his two friends.

"That damned woman, Mei Xiaofei, is cold-hearted and has no femininity whatsoever. I really don't know why my parents insisted on marrying us..."

Ying Shijie, also smoking a cigarette, laughed and said, "She's well-known in the industry for liking women. You've really struck gold. You can satisfy your parents' pressure to get married and also find the woman you like outside."

Shen Long chimed in, "That's right... Besides, her family's business is all over the country. You can rely on your parents-in-law to expand your career in the future. Why not?"

Wu Qianyu looked disgusted: "You make it sound so easy. I feel nauseous just thinking about how she likes women."

Ying Shijie suggested, "What's the big deal? There are plenty of homosexuals in the entertainment industry. Once you get married, have her have four or five kids for you, and she definitely won't have time to go out and fool around..."

Wu Qianyu suddenly had an idea, his eyes gleaming: "That's it! As long as I get something on her later, I won't be afraid of her disobeying me. I'll make her spout nonsense in front of me, and then I'll make her kneel on the ground begging me like a dog..."

Before he could finish speaking, Mei Qiteng, dressed in a suit and tie, suddenly rushed towards him from around the corner and kicked him to the ground.

Then she pinned him down, grabbed his collar, clenched her fists, and punched him hard in the face.

"You fucking want to treat my sister like a dog? I'll fucking cripple you right now..."

The other two immediately stepped forward to stop them, but Mei Qiteng was in a fit of anger and they couldn't pull him apart.

Wu Qianyu was completely defenseless and was soon beaten until his face was covered in blood.

Fearing a potentially disastrous outcome, Shenlong hurriedly ran to fetch both sets of parents.

A group of people rushed over and finally managed to separate the two.

Wu Qianyu's parents helped him up, heartbroken. On their engagement day, he was beaten like this. They said they would call the police, hire a lawyer, and demand an apology from Mei Qiteng.

Mei Qiteng, still not satisfied with his outburst, said fiercely, "Do as you please, I'm always ready... Wu Qianyu, if you dare to make another move on my sister, I'll make you pay a thousandfold!"

He is known in the industry for being ruthless and vicious, and almost no one dares to mess with him.

He made those harsh words and then turned and left.

Mei's parents kept apologizing to the Wu family in a humble tone, saying they would compensate Qianyu and would definitely make Qiteng apologize.

After much persuasion, Wu's parents decided not to call the police, since the two families had become in-laws and they didn't want to strain their relationship.

Wu Qianyu, wary of the Mei siblings' authority, could only swallow his anger, waiting for the day he could find something to use against them and make them pay the price...

Yu Qingtong had a rare opportunity to relax at a bar with some friends tonight. Hidden under the dim lights, she was able to temporarily let down her guard and drink one glass of wine after another without hesitation, her consciousness gradually becoming hazy.

In the quiet of the night, the bar gradually fills up with customers, and the DJ starts spinning records to liven up the atmosphere, making the music more passionate and energetic.

Tao Tao noticed that Yu Qingtong was in a bad mood and wanted to take her to the dance floor. She wanted to refuse, but couldn't resist their encouragement and went with them anyway.

As the intoxication took hold, she gradually swayed to the music, her initial restraint and tension giving way to a desire to release the deep-seated pain and numbness within her.

The playboys, who always enjoyed picking up beautiful women in bars, quickly spotted the figure dancing alone and skillfully moved to her side, trying to gauge her intentions.

Yu Qingtong knew what they were thinking, and no matter how she tried to avoid them, she was always surrounded by them.

Someone directly asked her if she wanted to go out and talk to her alone...

"I don't like men."

She shouted coldly, her interest shattered, and was about to leave.

"Beautiful lady, you'll see that men are better than women if you try it with me..."

The man who suddenly blocked her way had a smug smile on his face and didn't take her words seriously at all.
