Unbreakable love bond

91

Jihyo felt like she was being strangled as a million possibilities flashed through her head.

Upon entering Lan Xi's home, Jihyo found her grandfather chatting to Lan Xi with a kind smile under the bright hanging lights. She felt a fire boiling up inside her, like a volcano ready to erupt.

"President Lan...what is the meaning of this?" Jihyo's voice was a little shaky.

Hearing Jihyo's voice, Lan Xi and Grandfather both turned their heads. Lan Xi stood up welcomingly and greeted Jihyo, "You have been so dutiful towards Nayeon that I wanted to reward you. So, you don't mind that I invited your grandfather over, right?"

"jihyo President Lan has been extremely kind to me. She's been treating me like a part of the family, you definitely need to thank her," Grandfather smiled happily. He was wearing a new set of clothes and waving at Jihyo.

Jihyo looked at Lan Xi angrily as she clenched her fists. She wanted to ask Lan Xi if she still had any humanity left in her.

She didn't even let a 78-year-old elder off...She even wanted to use a 78-year-old!

"Ravi, take Grandfather to get some rest. I have something I want to discuss with Jihyo," Lan Xi looked at Jihyo threateningly; her eyes were piercing like an icy cold dagger.

Jihyo wanted to drag her grandfather away, but she knew...if she didn't grant Lan Xi her wish, she would not be able to leave.

"In that case, you guys have a good chat, I will go rest. When a person gets old, they become useless...just sitting in the car a little bit makes me tired."

After seeing her grandfather disappear into the distance, Jihyo finally asked, "What do you want?"

"Can't you tell what I want?" Lan Xi moved away from Jihyo and returned to sit on the sofa. "I want to use you - it's that simple. But what could I do to make a loyal dog like you abandon Nayeon? The only thing I could think of was family!"

"Jihyo you've been in this industry for more than a couple days. Haven't you seen methods like this before? Isn't it normal to you?"

Jihyo held back her tears. Even though she had a good nature, she couldn't stand up against Lan Xi's humiliation and intimidation, "Just tell me what you want, don't go around in circles."

Lan Xi let out a laugh as she lifted the bottle of wine off the table in front of her. As she walked over to the window she said, "I want to know all of Nayeon's secrets."

"For example?"

"In the LM commercial. Who does the back belong to?"

Jihyo lowered her head and smiled before replying, "Someone from the Lim family."

Jihyo made up something random, "After all, you know that Nayeon is an heiress of the Lim family. Who else could she get? She can only get someone from the Lim family. But, she couldn't let the other people from the family know, so she had to keep it a secret. If you think about it, if it was any other artist, they would be dying to be exposed. How could they disappear without a word?"

Lan Xi turned and glanced at Jihyo; her eyes were cold, but she seemed to have accepted this explanation.

"What type of background does Nayeon have? With who does she have such a close relationship?"

"Apart from being an abandoned Lim family heiress, what other background could she possibly have? If she really had a strong backing, would she allow you guys to oppress her?" Long Jihyo replied in a ridiculing tone. "As for men, she's quite close to the editor of TQ, they've had dinner a few times - but they aren't in 'that' kind of relationship. Maybe Nayeon likes jinyong, but...Editor park is not interested."
