Chapter 4 Manta Rose Xia Weiwei, have you been having stomach aches lately?

Chapter 4 Manta Rose Xia Weiwei, have you been having stomach aches lately?

Xia Weiwei laughed inwardly at herself. She was actually expecting something; was she stupid?

Lu Yanzhou's words were clearly meant for her.

Now she didn't even want to go in, and turned to leave, but Gu Qianyue called her back.

"Weiwei." Her voice was shrill, as if she didn't know she was there, but Xia Weiwei saw that as soon as she came out, Gu Qianyue's gaze fell on her, "President Lu said he doesn't like you."

Gu Qianyue returned to the dining table, but neither Lu Yanzhou nor the director were there. She assumed everyone had left, but then Lu Yanzhou returned.

Xia Weiwei's words had taken root in her heart, and she felt uneasy about them, so she mustered up the courage to ask them.

"I know, not only do I know, the whole internet knows that President Lu doesn't like me."

Gu Qianyue thought of how Lu Yanzhou would smear Xia Weiwei online every now and then.

Depend on!

She was fooled.

How could Lu Yanzhou like Xia Weiwei? Lu Yanzhou is Xia Weiwei's biggest hater!

Did Xia Weiwei anticipate her panic and helplessness?

Gu Qianyue was annoyed, but then she realized that she had figured out the relationship between the two of them, so she wasn't so angry anymore.

When she came to her senses, Xia Weiwei had already left, but Lu Yanzhou hadn't; he was waiting for her!

Gu Qianyue was delighted, but her smile froze when she heard the man's words.

"Xia Weiwei is a pillar of your Shangxing Entertainment, and this is how you treat her?"

Is Lu Yanzhou taking the blame for Xia Weiwei?

Before Xia Weiwei, Shangxing Entertainment was just a medium-sized enterprise. Five years ago, its net worth increased a hundredfold thanks to Xia Weiwei. To this day, Shangxing Entertainment has not found another Xia Weiwei.

With Xia Weiwei gone, Shangxing Entertainment was doomed to collapse.

Gu Qianyue scoffed; Xia Weiwei was not going to leave.

"Besides, I only said that Miss Gu was imagining things, but I didn't personally deny that I don't like Teacher Xia."

Gu Qianyue's expression froze, and all her good mood vanished.

"Mr. Lu, you..."

"Treat Teacher Xia well, otherwise..."

Lu Yanzhou left room for maneuver in his words and walked away. Gu Qianyue chased after him, but Lu Yanzhou was already gone.

Xia Weiwei couldn't possibly be unaware that she liked Lu Yanzhou. Xia Weiwei must have seduced Lu Yanzhou in private, told him about their relationship, and conspired with him to put on a show for her.

Okay, Xia Weiwei, you asked for this!

...

Xia Weiwei got into the van, and Xiaoya returned from a phone call to report on her recent schedule.

Xiaoya left just now to attend a meeting. Since her birthday is approaching, in addition to necessary business activities, she will also have a birthday party on the evening of June 30th.

"A birthday party?" Xia Weiwei asked.

Xiaoya shrank her neck and sighed, "Weiwei, you'll have to work overtime these next few nights to learn to dance and sing, but luckily you have a dance background."

"Offline?"

Xiaoya nodded: "The tickets went on sale half a month ago and sold out in a second."

"Why wouldn't I know?" Xia Weiwei's face darkened noticeably.

"Sister Yun just told me; she just found out herself."

That's just outrageous.

"I'm not going. I want to spend my birthday night with Langlang."

As Xia Weiwei was speaking, her phone rang. She had already decided that if it was Liang Yun calling, she would hang up.

It wasn't Liang Yun, but her father, Gu Yousheng, who was also the owner of Shangxing Entertainment.

She stared at the name Gu Yousheng, her hand hovering over the red button until the very last few seconds, when she finally switched to the green button to answer the call.

"Aci, these are tickets that Dad had someone sell. The company is losing money lately training other artists, so we're helping Dad out."

"Dad, I'm a little tired."

"You're young now, so it's okay to be a little tired. If you're afraid of hardship now, what will you do when you're old?"

"Dad's good son, prepare well for the birthday party, and don't let it interfere with your other work."

The man opposite her was completely uninterested in food and drink, and was determined to have her host an offline birthday party.

Xia Weiwei knew she couldn't persuade them, so she closed her eyes and stated her terms.

"Dad, you can let me have a party if you want. Come to Mom's villa at noon and celebrate my birthday with Mom."

Upon hearing that she could do it, the man loudly agreed.

Xia Weiwei had just hung up the phone when her mother messaged her, asking if she could celebrate her birthday with her father.

Xia Weiwei leaned back as someone knocked on the car window. She immediately sat up straight. Xiaoya lowered the window; it was the hotel receptionist.

"Our restaurant will prepare lime water for our guests. Please enjoy it."

Xia Weiwei's weary heart felt a momentary relief upon smelling that refreshing fragrance. She beckoned Xiaoya to bring it in, and Xiaoya thanked her and took the glass of lime water.

As she drank the lime water, Xia Weiwei let out a long sigh of relief. It felt so good and refreshing. She then drank most of it, half-reclined in her chair, and her mind cleared up a bit.

She seemed to have drunk this lemon water somewhere before.

Xia Weiwei recalled carefully and remembered that it was after she had been with Lu Yanzhou that her mind was hazy and Lu Yanzhou held her head and fed her water.

That's what the water tastes like.

After she finished drinking, her eyes were clear, and she saw the man looking at her with a seductive smile.

After finishing, Lu Yanzhou's body was flushed, and beads of sweat slid down his muscle lines, exuding a powerful and unrestrained masculine hormone.

"What, am I so handsome that you're dying of excitement?"

"I'm not so handsome that I'll die, but I'm going to be stabbed to death."

"That's because I'm older. You should be secretly happy about it."

Then, Lu Yanzhou cupped her face and fed her water little by little, like feeding a kitten.

"What did you feed me? It tastes pretty good."

Seeing that she was feeling much better, the man picked up his water glass and finished the rest of her drink.

"If you're tired, take a few days off. Such a big star doesn't even get the treatment of an extra."

Taking a few days off—what a luxury.

It seems that only Lu Yanzhou told her to rest.

Xia Weiwei took another big gulp, and just as she was about to finish it, she stopped drinking and put the remaining lemon water into the car refrigerator. She felt alive again.

“Tell Sister Yun that when my time comes, I will arrange a time to have an abortion.”

Xiaoya wrote it down.

"I schedule time with my dance and vocal teachers and practice for as long as I can in the evening."

Xiaoya nodded.

That day, Xia Weiwei only had one proper meal at noon, and then just grabbed a quick dinner before heading to the practice room to start practicing immediately.

The company decided to hold an offline birthday party, but Xia Weiwei was the one who worked herself to the bone.

Looking at Xia Weiwei, who was covered in sweat, Xiaoya thought that with this level of work intensity, she wouldn't even need to go to the hospital for an abortion; the baby would just miscarry naturally.

On June 28th, Xia Weiwei is going to participate in a fashion show.

The show started at 10 a.m., and she was dragged out of bed at 6 a.m. to get her makeup done.

The makeup artist was amazed by her face, except for the dark circles under her eyes.

"How late do you go to bed?" Liang Yun asked with a sigh.

Xia Weiwei held up the number three, and Liang Yun sighed.

With such an overloaded workload every day, how can I still have insomnia!

After the makeup artist finished applying the makeup, Liang Yun winked at Xiao Ya, who then pulled the makeup artist aside. Liang Yun took the opportunity to ask her some questions.

"Are you sure you want to wear high heels for today's fashion show?"

"Wearing high heels on the runway? Do you want me to be torn apart by netizens?" Xia Weiwei said casually.

Seeing that she seemed perfectly fine, Liang Yun became anxious.

"Have you forgotten you have a baby in your belly?" Liang Yun quickly lowered her voice.

"If you fall on stage and miscarry, you're finished."

Liang Yun could imagine the scenario where various software programs would be blacked out and unable to open.

"No way, I've been wearing high heels for years, I even run around the airport in them."

Liang Yun thought of the wall of high-end luxury shoes in Xia Weiwei's house and began to trust her a little bit.

The theme of this fashion show was a sea of ​​flowers, and Xia Weiwei had two looks, one for the opening and one for the closing.

The first red peony outfit was finished, and at the same time, the high heels were delivered.

At 9:55, Xia Weiwei went backstage to get ready.

At 10:00 AM sharp, she appeared on the runway in high heels.

Xia Weiwei's support color is romantic purple. As soon as she left, the audience's shouts shattered the sky, and the drone footage showed a purple ocean.

"Xia Weiwei truly lives up to her reputation for beauty." Lu Qibai looked at the confident girl on the stage and was momentarily transported into a bright and beautiful scene by her.

"Do you know how netizens describe Xia Weiwei? She looks good with both light and heavy makeup. She can pull off any makeup look. Her face looks good no matter which angle you take the picture from."

Lu Qibai clapped along with everyone else, but no one around him responded. He had to look over and saw Lu Yanzhou's lazy face.

Oh, he forgot that Lu Yanzhou is Xia Weiwei's number one hater.

Lu Yanzhou rested his head on his palm, his gaze lazily and listlessly falling on the girl on the catwalk.

"Weiwei's smile captivates thousands; Weiwei's affections are swayed by your beauty!"

A man with a very loud voice came from not far from Lu Yanzhou, his voice carrying over the crowd. Lu Yanzhou frowned almost imperceptibly. How come she had male fans?

Lu Yanzhou's gaze returned, her brows furrowing even deeper. There was something wrong with her high heels; she almost fell.

Fans on the platform soon noticed.

Xia Weiwei had only taken three steps onto the stage when the crisp click of her high heels rang out. She immediately clutched her stomach, and Xiaoya and Liang Yun in the audience felt their hearts leap into their throats.

Oh my god, my high heel broke!

how so!

Xia Weiwei quickly composed herself, smiled, and tiptoed through the entire route. The moment she stepped down, the fans in the stands were not happy and shouted that Shangxing Entertainment should pay more attention to its star performer.

Backstage, Xia Weiwei sat in a chair, letting the makeup artist change her makeup, while Liang Yun picked up her high heels to check them.

There was glue on the crack; it arrived already cracked.

Liang Yun picked up a spare high heel and slammed the heel on the ground, breaking it.

"Are you crazy? Are you trying to kill Weiwei?!"

Xiaoya called over the assistant who was delivering the high heels, and the assistant was trembling.

"Once the high heels are in my hands, they never leave my grasp."

"So that's why you broke the heel halfway through and then glued it back on?" Xiaoya asserted.

The assistant waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, I..." She recalled carefully, "I remember, I went to the restroom in the middle, and that's when I let go of her hand."

Liang Yun gave Xiao Ya a look, and Xiao Ya took her assistant to the restroom to look for evidence, while Liang Yun stayed in the lounge to call various brands to see if they had suitable high heels.

Liang Yun made two unsuccessful phone calls and noticed that Xia Weiwei's gaze was slightly dazed.

"Weiwei, it's all over now. I will definitely check carefully in the future and make sure this never happens again."

Xia Weiwei's gaze became more focused, landing on Liang Yun, before slowly shifting back to her own stomach.

No, in that moment when she was suspended in mid-air, what she was most worried about wasn't her own body, but the baby in her belly.

"Weiwei?" Liang Yun called her, and she responded with a blank "Ah."

Liang Yun glanced at her stomach and instructed the makeup artist not to make her makeup too heavy, as her final look was a white lily dress.

Xiaoya returned empty-handed, which Liang Yun had already guessed, but the most urgent task was to find the high heels.

Liang Yun used his power and finally called Gu Yousheng, hoping he could intervene on behalf of the brand. Gu Qianyue answered the phone.

"Why would high heels cause an accident at such an important show?"

"Is Xia Weiwei deliberately acting like a diva?"

"Could it be that Xia Weiwei broke her high heels herself?"

"Alright, I don't want to hear your explanation. I just want the result. If Xia Weiwei doesn't perform well as the finale, then she shouldn't be the finale anymore."

Gu Qianyue unilaterally hung up on Liang Yun, and when Liang Yun tried to interrupt, Gu Qianyue ignored him.

She didn't believe that Xia Weiwei could walk the runway without high heels.

She wanted to make her fans see clearly that she was nothing.

Xia Weiwei overheard Liang Yun's conversation with Gu Qianyue: "Don't be angry. How could Gu Qianyue possibly lend it to me? She'd love for me to make a fool of myself."

"Why are you still so calm?" Liang Yun asked, walking up to Xia Weiwei.

Xia Weiwei smiled. Although she didn't know who was behind her scheme, she knew that the wall of high heels in her house wasn't collected for nothing.

You want to prevent her from walking the runway? Not only will she walk, she'll walk well.

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Jiang Linlang shouted.

"Honey, I've brought the shoes you wanted."

The fashion show was in Beijing, 50 kilometers away from Xia Weiwei's home, and the show was ending in an hour, making a round trip impossible. However, Jiang Linlang happened to be near her home.

She drove over easily.

Jiang Linlang is carrying sequined shoes from Jimmy Choo's Love series.

These boots will surely make you shine in no time.

"I also brought another pair."

Jiang Linlang opened the shoe in her other hand, and its luster was so dazzling that it was hard to open one's eyes.

This is Jimmy Choo's latest design, featuring blue diamonds throughout, with four thousand diamonds used in each shoe. The toe is also adorned with light purple diamonds arranged in a rose shape.

Every diamond is completely natural.

These shoes were released in May of this year, but no one has been able to buy them yet.

Xia Weiwei couldn't take her eyes off these high heels; they were so beautiful!

Wearing her makes you feel like a princess.

Oh no, Jimmy Choo's classic quote is, "Wear it, and you're willing to give your soul."

She's willing!

Xia Weiwei was unable to calm down, so Jiang Linlang quickly had her try it on.

She nodded, and it fit her perfectly; it was her size!

"Langlang, how did you get these shoes?"

Jiang Linlang thought of that person and avoided answering, only telling her to wear this dazzling outfit.

Time was of the essence, and Liang Yun urged Xia Weiwei to change her clothes, so Xia Weiwei didn't ask any more questions.

A group of online trolls suddenly appeared online, saying that she doesn't even know how to wear high heels and what kind of female celebrity she is.

What nonsense are you spouting? If you can't speak properly, shut your dog mouth!

[If the fans are as rude as their idol, how good can the idol be?]

Xia Weiwei is the kind of person who would have a female host wear a formal dress to interview her in winter, hold an umbrella for her assistant Xiaoya in the scorching sun, and remind fans at the airport to be careful and not allow minors to pick her up.

If this isn't good, then what is?

The two sides were arguing fiercely when suddenly the three words "Xia Weiwei," "Bai Baihe," and "Jimmy Choo" appeared on the trending searches, or "Xia Weiwei" appeared on the trending searches with either of the two words.

If you click on any of the trending search terms related to her, you'll see that divine image.

Dressed in pure white, she shimmered with iridescent light under the sun. The waistline was adorned with a twisted lily design, dividing the dress in two. Below the waistline was a flowing, loose skirt, while above it were lily petals blooming in profusion, with her as the most delicate stamen.

She was so beautiful that everyone forgot she had just won an acting award.

So much so that it wasn't until the show ended that people noticed she was wearing Jammy Choo's globally exclusive collection.

It's a natural diamond, even rarer than Swarovski crystals.

A pair of shoes would probably cost over a million.

Was Xia Weiwei walking a fashion show? Or was she walking a red carpet paved with RMB?

How does she have Jammy Choo's Only collection?! She can't even buy it herself, how did Xia Weiwei get it!

Gu Qianyue looked at Xia Weiwei's radiant face on the trending topics, the A4 paper in her hand crumpled. The office door was pushed open, and Gu Yousheng's voice came in.

"Ah Yue, I heard you're looking for your father?"

"Dad, Mom wants to have dinner with us on June 30th. Let's go have dinner together."

Gu Qianyue showed her aggrieved little face and stepped forward to hug Gu Yousheng's arm.

"June 30th..." Gu Yousheng was still thinking about it when Gu Qianyue shook his arm and said, "Grandpa and Grandma will also be having dinner with us. It's a wonderful time for the whole family to get together."

Well, the tickets for the offline fan meeting are already bought, and she's already practiced. Given her good temper, it's impossible for her not to go. It's okay if I don't spend my birthday with her and her mom.

Gu Yousheng agreed, and Gu Qianyue smiled contentedly.

Xia Weiwei moved to the back of the court and took off her high heels.

"Here you go."

Although she still likes it, the Only series is not something she can afford.

Jiang Linlang smiled and pushed the high heels back to her: "These are yours."

"Are you kidding me?"

No matter how rich Jiang Linlang is, there's no need for her to give such a large gift.

"This is a birthday present I prepared for you. You can accept it now."

That's very valuable too.

Xia Weiwei's gaze fell on the high heels, her hands behind her back. Jiang Linlang caught sight of someone, grabbed Xia Weiwei's hand, and forcefully shoved the high heels into her hand.

"If you keep being so polite, do you still consider me your best friend?"

After Jiang Linlang said that, Xia Weiwei no longer stood on ceremony and accepted the gift. The image of the rose on the shoe flashed through her mind, resembling a manta rose.

Every time the two met, she would receive manta roses from Lu Yanzhou.

These shoes...

Xia Weiwei thought about it for a couple more seconds and then dismissed the idea. How could it possibly be related to Lu Yanzhou? Lu Yanzhou would find it painful to even look at her.

Jiang Linlang had to leave first, and Xia Weiwei said goodbye to her and was about to return to the lounge when a male voice called out to her.

"Ms. Xia, can you be my girlfriend? I like you." The man held up a red rose.

She's been seeing him frequently lately; he's been at all her recent events.

"I don't like you, so don't waste your time on me anymore."

Before the man could finish speaking, Xia Weiwei quickened her pace and retreated to the lounge.

The man wanted to give chase, but only saw a tightly closed door. He turned back and walked into the stairwell across the street.

"Mr. Lu, how do you know that Ms. Xia will definitely reject me?" the man asked, unwilling to give up.

Lu Yanzhou's gaze fell on the door through the air. How did he know?

She'll back down if anyone confesses their feelings to her or shows her even a hint of sincerity.

This woman is the most ruthless in this regard.

...

Xia Weiwei had other plans for the afternoon. She received a message from Xiaoya that the car was parked. As she walked out, she thought about the moment when Xiaoya's high heels missed a step.

child……

"Could you make an appointment with the hospital for me? I'd like to go there first."

Xia Weiwei was too lazy to type, so she pressed the microphone button and sent a voice message.

"Why are you going to the hospital?" A man's voice came from behind him.

Xia Weiwei immediately recognized Lu Yanzhou's voice and stopped in her tracks.

She didn't turn around; the man's shadow entered her field of vision first.

The shadow slowly shrank, and Lu Yanzhou's tall figure blocked her way.

“When your high heel broke, I saw you protecting your stomach. You’ve been feeling nauseous every time you eat these past few days.”

He actually saw her protecting her stomach! Does this man have incredibly sharp eyesight?!

"Xia Weiwei, have you been having stomach aches lately?"

The man's eyes were fixed on her flat stomach, and Xia Weiwei felt a pang of panic.

A note from the author:

The synopsis is coming soon~ Next chapter~

I'd like to recommend a friend's novel! It's about marriage before love!

Snow Falls on the Wedding Night by Qin Ting

Text: The media broke a news story—

#Huachen Group's third son buys pink diamond for exorbitant price, suspected of trying to please his newlywed wife#

Shi Nian turned her head and glanced at the man beside her, Jiang Yangui, the newlywed husband who was rumored to be "excessively doting on his wife".

Not long ago, after experiencing unemployment and being dumped, she returned to her hometown of Mudanjiang and was told that she had a childhood betrothed to a man worth billions.

Jiang Yangui looked at Shi Nian's gloomy face and said with his usual sharp tongue, "Since your life is already this bad, why don't you try grabbing me?"

Shi Nian: "..."

Turning around, they got their marriage certificate.

-

Initially, Jiang Yangui regarded this contractual marriage as a normal business partnership.

To him, she was nothing more than a tool to fulfill his grandfather's wishes, and a name in the spouse section of his ID card.

He gave her money and fulfilled all her needs, but he maintained clear boundaries, treating her like a stranger under the same roof.

And Shi Nian never crossed the line.

Until one day, after leaving home, he tossed and turned in bed. When he returned, he gave her the priceless pink diamond.

"Just wear it for fun." He said indifferently, as if casually handing over a piece of candy.

Later, he started reporting his itinerary to her, asserting his dominance in front of her suitors, and teaching her how to fight back when she encountered trouble or felt wronged and cried.

He clumsily but gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Now, have you learned how to take advantage of my power?"

-

On the day her contract expired, all the media in Taiwan were waiting for her, this "Cinderella," to be exposed for what she truly was.

Shi Nian originally intended to part ways with him and leave quietly, but Jiang Yangui, who had rushed over, pulled her into his arms.

She slumped onto his lap, struggling to get up, but his burning hands gripped her waist tightly.

Then, a document was handed to her, which clearly read "Property Gift Agreement".

"I'll give you all the diamonds you want, and put all my assets in your name."

He bit her earlobe, his breath hot: "So, how about we make this a real relationship?"
