Love Comes After Marriage novel Chapter 208

The next morning, the entertainment news was doing a live broadcast of the spectacle at Beijing airport. TV broadcasterswere at the scene reporting live.

"I'm afraid this is the first time I've seen such a scene, not only in my entire career - but in my entire life. A huge number of fans have gathered here today, not because they like someone, but because they dislike them."

"We can see live at the scene, plenty of banners and signs; they are all trying to express anger towards the model, Tangning.",

After speaking, the reporter looked down at her watch before looking up again, "From what we know, Tangning's flight will be arriving at 10am, which is less than 20 minutes from now. Right now, the airport is urgently preparing security. On behalf of all the reporters present, I hope Tangning will be able to get out safely without getting hurt."

After seeing the news, Long Jie lifted the remote and turned off the TV. She then turned to look at Tangning. She was currently standing beside the square dining table pruning some flowers.

"I've already organized for the lawyers to send out your contract termination letter. I am assuming, at this time, it has arrived in Lan Xi's hands," Long Jie said to Tangning.

Tangning remained silent as she continued what she was doing.

"Tangning...did you know last night, I looked through all the abuse online? Do you know how upset I was? Look! my eyes are swollen from crying..." Long Jie sulked as she pointed to her walnut-shaped eyes.

"You deserve it," Tangning replied calmly.

"Didn't I do this all because of you? You sure stand out from the rest. While other people's fans are waiting at the airport to greet them and serenade their love for them, look at your fans - they are holding banners telling you to get lost, demanding for you to apologize and cursing you to die..."

"It seems, after this battle, my name will go down in the history books," Tangning continued to prune the roses in her hands before arranging them beautifully in a glass vase.

Tangning could guess what Long Jie was trying to do; she was simply trying to check on her emotions.

After all the ups and downs she had already been through, she honestly did not care about the damage caused by rumors anymore. Once upon a time, she endured the pain - these days, she simply did not care.

Long Jie was happy with the results of her probing; she had tried her best to provoke Tangning, yet she remained completely calm. So, she slowly let go of the anxiety she felt.

At this time, Long Jie decided to change the topic and talk about something more uplifting. However, Tangning suddenly received a phone call from Lan Xi.

After seeing the caller ID, Long Jie asked Tangning if she wanted to pick up. Tangning put down the scissors in her hand and retrieved the phone from Long Jie.

"Have you already returned?" Lan Xi asked. She knew, if Tangning was still on the plane, there was no way she'd be able to pick up the phone.

Lan Xi had just received Tangning's contract termination letter, so she assumed Tangning was already back in the country. This was expected of Tangning; as if she would give anti-fans the opportunity to surround and obstruct her.

"I got back last night!" Tangning replied calmly without trying to hide anything.

The two people who had once played a long game of tug-of-war, under such circumstances, unexpectedly conversed calmer than usual.

If from the start, Lan Xi had not decided to classify their relationship as one between a higher level and lower level - if they were simply friends - perhaps, they would have never gotten to the point where they were today.

"I've received your contract termination letter..." Lan Xi looked over the letter again; she had mixed feelings. Actually, she did not know what she should say to Tangning at this moment. But, as the CEO, she had the responsibility of expressing the agency's standpoint, "Tangning, are you aware that you've caused Cheng Tian to suffer a huge loss?"
