Chapter 569 - Smaller World for Xing Yiyue (3)
Xing Yiyue ruined his sister's life, so how was Zhang Jiren supposed to let her off that easily? If Xing Yiyue didn't scheme against Tang Moyu, his plans wouldn't have derailed, forcing the empress to flee from the country the moment he came back to Shenzhen to see her.
Zhang Jiren wanted to crush the woman with his own hands, the reason his twin sister left the country, he made sure to investigate more about Xing Yiyue and the kind of life she had before entering show business.
It was laughable for Zhang Jiren when he stumbled upon the fact that Xing Yiyue used to be part of a group where its members pretended to be socialites, teaching each other how to act presentably in public and how to ensnare popular male celebrities, and wealthy businessmen like Feng Tianhua.
What else about Xing Yiyue was fake? He wondered. He then thought of how stupid Feng Tianhua really was for failing to check on Xing Yiyue's background and choosing the woman over Tang Moyu.
Actually, Xing Yiyue's roots weren't really that bad. She came from a well-off family in Sichuan Province and received decent education when she was younger. Only after her father fell ill did her misfortune started.
Eventually, Xing Yiyue's father died from his chronic illness, leaving the whole family in debt. Because Xing Yiyue's family couldn't pay their creditors, she, along with her aging mother and older brother left Sichuan Province and moved far away from the place. They kept moving around until they chose to settle in Shenzhen.
She then started working several menial jobs and shifts just to help her family. It was only after one of the patrons of a bar she was working in noticed her alluring innocent beauty did Xing Yiyue's life turn for the better.
Xing Yiyue was then offered a part-time job as a fashion model for young women's clothes. It was during this time when she met Liu Ruoyan and got acquainted with her. Xing Yiyue, who had grown up in a conservative family had a hard time adjusting to her new surroundings.
It was through being acquainted with Liu Ruoyan that Xing Yiyue entered the pretend socialite club, where she learned everything she knew about seducing a man. The temptation of having a secured future sounded so enticing for a poor woman like her. With her new friends' help, it didn't take long before Xing Yiyue managed to sign a contract as a new actress at one of the major entertainment companies in the country.
She worked harder, refusing to go back to the life she had after her father died. Xing Yiyue didn't want to experience hardship ever again.
She didn't want to be chased out of her home by their landlord, refused to experience sleeping with hunger, and begging for someone's help ever again.
It was for this reason that she requested someone to teach her the ways to win the heart of the young president of Feng Conglomerate back then. Her first meeting with Feng Tianhua wasn't really just a coincidence. It was thoroughly planned by her and her colleagues. Xing Yiyue had studied Feng Tianhua's preference in women and found out the places he frequently visited.
An ambitious woman like Xing Yiyue surely had something she had to protect from the public. One that may ruin her career and destroy her reputation, just the way she destroyed Tang Moyu's.
If anything, she should be more cautious now more than ever. It made sense to Zhang Jiren why the woman never abused her position as Young Madam Feng and was careful not to get involved in a scandal that could harm not only the Feng family's reputation, but hers as well.
Zhang Jiren believed that she would never get away from the sins she'd done in the past and would one day get her punishment. It might have taken him years just to get a hand on the evidence that led back to the actress, but it was better late than never.
Now, his twin sister should appreciate this 'gift' he presented for her. Zhang Jiren was curious if she could resist the temptation of exacting revenge on Xing Yiyue. Whether Tang Moyu decided to destroy Xing Yiyue or not, Zhang Jiren was certain she would have the same end.
Zhang Jiren was aware that the invitation that was currently laying on his table coming from Xiao Xing was just out of courtesy. He and Tang Moyu didn't have anything against each other and he could understand why the empress was wary of him.
If she knew that he was Tang Lingjun and he had been purposely separated from her and their father by the Zhang family, he had no doubt that Tang Moyu would hate the Zhangs even more than she already did.
Anyway, he wouldn't miss this chance to see and meet his twin sister. He would also use this opportunity to observe how Feng Tianyi and Yun Zhen interact with Tang Moyu, given how the two had persistently used the media to establish their intention towards his sister.
To think that one day he would be in the same place with his twin sister again was something that Zhang Jiren could only hope for before.
"Clear my schedule this coming weekend. I cannot miss Xiao Xing's inauguration." He told his assistant.
Zhang Jiren didn't think that his 'father' would oppose the idea of him attending the event, since it was expected that some of the popular and influential people would be there to attend as well. He could still use this as a guise to see his twin sister from afar.
"Yes, Boss Jiren." His assistant replied. He then didn't waste time in executing the order he received from Zhang Jiren. He wasn't sure what Zhang Jiren had in mind, but he wouldn't question his boss as long as his career wasn't at stake.
