The top star opened his eyes and became cannon fodder, the celebrity's wife was exposed

Chapter 896 Abyss

All of this was under Su Man's control. She used the evidence provided by Jiang Mubai to completely destroy Shen Fang, and at the same time helped Jiang Mubai clear his grievances.

However, Jiang Mubai was not happy. She knew that all this was Su Man's plan and she was just a pawn in Su Man's hands.

But Su Man's purpose was far more than that... She looked at the flashing neon lights outside the window, and suddenly felt uneasy. At this time, her cell phone rang. It was Su Man calling.

"Ms. Jiang, are you free tonight? I would like to invite you to dinner." Su Man's voice was gentle but with a hint of refusal.

Jiang Mubai held the phone tightly and took a deep breath: "Okay."

She knew that the game had just begun...

The lights were on, and in the private room of the high-end restaurant, the crystal chandelier emitted a soft light, reflecting on Su Man's delicate makeup, making her look even more charming. Jiang Mubai sat opposite her, holding a wine glass in his hand, but he didn't drink a sip. She looked alert, like a frightened deer, looking around anxiously.

Su Man raised her wine glass and gently shook the scarlet liquid in it, with a meaningful smile on her lips. "Ms. Jiang, congratulations, you're back."

Jiang Mubai forced a bitter smile and said nothing. She knew that this so-called "return" was just the beginning of another abyss.

"I know what you're thinking." Su Man put down her wine glass and stared at Jiang Mubai sharply. "Do you think I'm trying to help you? Don't be naive, Miss Jiang. There's no such thing as a free lunch in this industry."

Jiang Mubai clenched his glass tightly, his knuckles turning white. "What do you want to do?"

"Don't be nervous." Su Man chuckled, but her tone was full of command, "I just want you to do me a small favor."

Su Man took out a document from her bag and pushed it in front of Jiang Mubai. "Sign it."

Jiang Mubai picked up the document hesitantly and quickly glanced through it. This was an endorsement contract, and the product endorsed was a brand new cosmetic.

"What does this mean?" Jiang Mubai asked with a frown.

"You know the characters, do you need me to explain?" Su Man knocked on the table impatiently, "Sign it, and you will be the spokesperson for this cosmetics."

Jiang Mubai hesitated. She knew that Su Man would not give her such good resources for no reason.

"What are your conditions?" Jiang Mubai asked.

Su Man smiled, like a cunning fox. "It's simple. I want you to help me get close to someone."

"Who?"

"Lu Jingxing." Su Man said word by word.

Jiang Mubai's heart sank suddenly. Lu Jingxing, the top traffic star in the entertainment industry, the national male god, was also... the man she once loved deeply, but who had hurt her severely.

"Why me?" Jiang Mubai's voice trembled a little.

"Because you and he were lovers." Su Man's tone was full of sarcasm, "I believe you know him better than anyone else."

Jiang Mubai was silent. She knew that Su Man was right. She and Lu Jingxing were once the golden couple of the entertainment industry, and their love story was once the envy of others. But it was also because of this relationship that she was hurt.

Now, Su Man wants her to get close to Lu Jingxing again, which is undoubtedly another torture for her.

"I..." Jiang Mubai was about to refuse, but Su Man interrupted her.

"Don't be so hasty to refuse, Miss Jiang." Su Man picked up the wine glass and took a sip. "You should know that you have no choice now."

Jiang Mubai bit her lips, her eyes full of struggle. She knew that Su Man was right. She was notorious now, and her career was just starting. If she offended Su Man, she would probably be beaten to the bottom again.

"I need time to think about it." Jiang Mubai said.

"Okay." Su Man agreed generously, "But I advise you to make a decision as soon as possible. Opportunities don't always come."

After Su Man left, Jiang Mubai sat alone in the box, holding the endorsement contract tightly in her hand. She looked at the flashing neon lights outside the window, feeling lost.

Getting close to Lu Jingxing...is this an opportunity or another trap for her?

At this moment, the door of the box was suddenly pushed open, and a man walked in. He was tall, with handsome features, and exuded a noble and arrogant temperament.

It’s Lu Jingxing.

"Long time no see, Mu Bai." He looked at her with complicated eyes.

Jiang Mubai was stunned, and the contract in his hand fell to the ground...

The contract slipped from Jiang Mubai's stiff fingertips, and the paper fell to the ground, making a slight sound, but it was like a bomb exploding in the silent box. She raised her head and her eyes collided with Lu Jingxing's deep eyes. The memories that she had deliberately sealed away came rushing in like a tide.

"It's really you..." Jiang Mubai's voice trembled, as if it was squeezed out from the depths of his throat, with a hint of disbelief and a hint of pain.

Lu Jingxing bent down to pick up the contract, glanced at it casually, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Did Su Man give it to you?"

Jiang Mubai didn't answer, but stared at him closely, as if he wanted to see through him. Three years later, he didn't seem to have changed at all, still so handsome and charming, exuding an irresistible charm in every move.

Lu Jingxing threw the contract back on the table, pulled out a chair, and sat down gracefully. "What does she want you to do?"

"Get close to you." Jiang Mubai's voice was low and self-deprecating. "She wants to use me to deal with you."

Lu Jingxing chuckled, with a hint of disdain in his tone. "She really thinks highly of you."

This sentence was like a sharp thorn, piercing Jiang Mubai's heart. Yes, what qualifications did she have to approach him now? She was no longer the brilliant Jiang Mubai three years ago. She was now just a notorious out-of-date star, a "sinner" despised by everyone.

"Are you...doing well?" When Jiang Mubai asked this question, he realized how hoarse and weak his voice was.

Lu Jingxing did not answer, but just looked at her quietly with complicated eyes. The box fell into silence, and the atmosphere was so depressing that it was almost suffocating.

"I heard..." Jiang Mubai said with difficulty, "You already have a girlfriend."

Lu Jingxing finally responded. He frowned slightly, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes. "Who told you?"

"Does it matter?" Jiang Mubai laughed self-deprecatingly. "Even if it's true, I wouldn't be surprised. After all, how could a man like you be without women around you?"

Lu Jingxing's face darkened. He stood up, walked in front of Jiang Mubai, and looked down at her. "Jiang Mubai, you are still the same as before, sarcastic and annoying."

Jiang Mubai raised his head and met his gaze without fear. "Same here, Lu Jingxing, you are still the same as before, selfish, cold, hypocritical and heartless."
