Chapter 42 Arrival

Bai Zhexuan was in a black mood. "Is she looking down on the business class seats the company arranged?"

In all honesty, they had wanted seats in first-class but were unable to get them.

"Nope, it's just that Yan Wen is getting so popular. lf something were to happen, she wouldn't be able to film the reality show." Xia hung up as soon as she was done, without giving Bai Zhexuan a chance to respond.

Chen Yu looked around with wide eyes. This was her first time experiencing such treatment. A private plane, bodyguards, luxurious cabin interiors. "Xia, are the Yans that powerful? Why does Yan Wen still want to be an actress?"

She knew that in this industry, plenty of rich young women were backed by their families so they could dabble in acting. But Yan Wen was an amazing actress in her own right, and with powerful backing, she would be unstoppable in the entertainment industry if not for Bai Zhexuan's involvement.

"Well... The Yans are powerful, but today—"

Xia had not finished when the cabin door opened and in strode Jiang Sui-an. His dark eyes were cold, his handsome face carried a hint of arrogance, and a cold aura emitted from his posture. But when he set his eyes on Yan Wen, the pride instantly vanished and a smile graced his thin lips. He picked up Yan Wen's hand in his and asked, "Have you eaten lunch?"

With their familiar tone and affectionate manner, the way they looked at each other was like a landscape painting.

"No, I was waiting for you. I just knew you'd come." Yan Wen held on to his arm and they went into the back cabin together.

They would always know that each other were thinking about.

Chen Yu was surprised to see their familiarity.

If her eyes had not deceived her, that man was the president of Dahua Entertainment! The most powerful man in the entertainment industry! She actually had a chance to see him up close, and to observe that his relationship with Yan Wen was special. "Xia, pinch me. Am I dreaming? That was... Jiang... Jiang Sui-an?"

"I'm not going to pinch you because you're not dreaming. He arranged all this for Yan Wen. We're just soaking in the excess," explained Xia.

It hit Chen Yu then. "Does that mean even Jiang Sui-an has fallen for Yan Wen's charms and wants to pursue her?"

"To be accurate, he's spoiling his wife."

On hearing this, Chen Yu's mind blanked out and her ears rang hollowly. The artiste that Bai Zhexuan let her manage, was the wife of Dahua Entertainment's president!

And they wanted her, Chen Yu, to keep an eye on her and destroy her comeback!

Oh, God... If Jiang Sui-an's woman wanted to act, it would only take one sentence... In the entertainment empire that was Dahua, Grand Entertainment was merely a speck of dust.

"And Jiang Lingyun is stíll worried that Yan Wen will get back together with Bai Zhexuan?" Chen Yu choked out. The two men were like chalk and cheese. If Jiang Lingyun knew what Yan Wen's status was, she would probably pass out from envy.

Xia stifled her laughter. "I'm also waiting for the news to be public. Oh, to see their faces!"

She noticed Chen Yu's expression and glanced around.

"When Bai Zhexuan was running around with Jiang Lingyun behind Yan Wen's back, Yan Wen was crushed. She bumped into Jiang Sui-an while she was returning the wedding dress, and they just hit it off and got married the same day. Yan Wen doesn't want to publicize this yet, so for you to be on this plane shows how much Yan Wen trusts you. I hope you take that into consideration and decide where you stand."

Xia patted Chen Yu's shoulder meaningfully and then turned her attention to the filming schedule. Bai Zhexuan had shed all pretense of friendliness with Yan Wen, and would not give her any opportunity to make a comeback. This outdoor shoot was going to be difficult and as Yan Wen's most trusted assistant, she had to have all information at hand.

Chen Yu was lost in thought for a long while, but finally, she walked over to Xia. "Xia, I know what I should do. No matter what happens, I will stand on Yan Wen's side. Please believe me."

Xia did not say anything, but nodded mildly and pushed the other half of the documents to her.

Chen Yu quickly took them up and the two soon became engrossed in their work.

In a separate seat, Yan Wen was nestled in Jiang Sui-an's arms. She knew better than most how difficult it was for them to be alone together. "You know, I can take care of myself."

"I can't bear to be apart from you. Anyway, this is an important trip." Jiang Sui-an tipped her head up for a kiss.

"Sui-an..." Yan Wen replied with another kiss.

Jiang Sui-an savored her sweetness and let go of her. "There's a lot to do after we get there. You should take a nap."

"How much work have you left behind to accompany me here?" Yan Wen questioned.

"I have work here too... Don't worry," he answered her soothingly. He was willing to do anything for her.

In the other plane, Jiang Lingyun's wrath had hit a boiling point, and she kept taking her frustration out on the flight attendants, attracting the attention of many passengers.

"Come on, stop bothering them. We'll be landing soon, quieten down." Bai Zhexuan tugged at her. "If anyone recognizes you..."

As he said that, someone yelled out, "Isn't that Jiang Lingyun?"

"Who? Oh, the third-rate actress who is the mistress?"

In a flash, everyone turned to look and someone raised their phone to get a photo.

Irritated, Jiang Lingyun started nagging. "t's your fault! Why can't I have a private plane! I'm pregnant and still need to sit with such people in business class!"

On the receiving end, Bai Zhexuan was in a bad mood of his own and piled all the blame on Yan Wen.

When they were together, Yan Wen had never shown that. It seemed to him that she wanted his attention. He would need to find some time to speak to her about it!

Yan Wen and Jiang Sui-an arrived an hour early, and Xia and Chen Yu both breathed a sigh of relief. Even though they worked throughout the flight, with no one disturbing them, they had got a lot of work done.

On the other hand, Bai Zhexuan's sister Bai Shanshan and the people she brought along were rushing about. Bai Shanshan's heart thumped alarmingly when she saw Yan Wen step out alone with her assistant and manager. Why was she here carly, had Yan Wen seen through their plans? Mind whirling with questions, she moved towards Yan Wen.

"Yan Wen, it's been a while." Her tall frame wrapped in a black and white business skirt suit, former international model Bai Shanshan oozed charm, and her every word and movement had an air of haughtiness.

At first glance, Yan Wen was floored.

But Yan Wen's life philosophy was to be as calm as water, She slipped on her sunglasses and acknowledged Bai Shanshan with a slight nod, but did not speak. This reaction did not allow Bai Shanshan to speculate her thoughts.
