After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 1166: Chapter 1170: God Punishes Me So I Can Protect You

People thought she was a materialistic girl, but he knew she wasn’t. He was absolutely certain from the first time he saw her.

He was surprised by her voice and went to see ”Huaxia Idol” in person. She did not disappoint him; her voice, her piano, her stubborn and defiant way of playing while bleeding, her decisive withdrawal from the competition all revealed her innate pride.

At midnight, she walked alone in a solitary backdrop of darkness.

At the dinner table, she talked about music with focus and unique insight.

That girl, once she stands on stage, is a natural stage queen and after stepping off the spotlight, she becomes as genuine and lovable as a neighbor’s girl.

For a child who had fallen into water, she could make herself incredibly disheveled.

For a stranger’s child, she could completely disregard her celebrity status.

...

Every time they met, she seemed completely different.

There was something about her that he rarely encountered in others — something called authenticity.

She had an ordinary name, but what extended from that name was absolutely extraordinary.

From the girl Luo Xiaoqian to Princess Qianqian, and then to the strong and headstrong business queen SISSI five years later, no matter how she changed, her authenticity never wavered.

Not being able to have her is regrettable.

Being able to meet her, however, is fortunate.

Jiao Yang put away his phone, stuffed both hands into his pockets, and leaned lazily against the elevator wall, once again hearing her surprised voice on that torrential rainy night.

...

Jiao Yang, oh God, you’re truly an Angel!

...

”Angel?!” Jiao Yang laughed self-deprecatingly, ”Maybe I’ve wronged too many women before, so God punished me by making me protect you?!”

As Jiao Yang’s elevator descended, another elevator next door was ascending, stopping at the top floor.

The elevator doors opened with a ding, and Seo Fei, looking equally exhausted, hurriedly stepped out and headed straight to the CEO’s office.

”President Seo!”

Mina saw her and immediately smiled graciously as she approached.

”Is Zimo here?!”

Seo Fei had little patience to engage with her; Tang Ming had been out of touch, and the Seo Family’s stock was in a free fall. Last night, searching for Leng Zimo left her nearly exhausted, and she didn’t want to say anything extra now.

Mina quickly nodded, ”President Leng is in the office...”

Before Mina could finish, Seo Fei was already striding past her and heading to Leng Zimo’s office.

Mina rolled her eyes at her retreating figure, ”What’s the big deal? It’s just because she has a good father!”

The high heels clacked urgently across the floor, and Seo Fei pushed open Leng Zimo’s office door without knocking.

Inside, Leng Zimo was sitting by the desk, watching a disc that Jiao Yang gave him.

The disc contained specially edited videos by Jiao Yang, which included almost all of the public videos of him and Luo Xiaoqian, from her initial participation in the talent show to the competition that injured her finger, as well as his proposal to her, and their collaboration at the press conference to handle plagiarism crises, among other things...

Someone actually dared to enter his office without knocking?!

Hearing the door open, Leng Zimo frowned and looked up.

”Zimo, I finally found you!” Seeing him, Seo Fei walked over excitedly, ”What happened to your phone last night, was it out of battery...”

Seo Fei’s words stopped halfway, frozen as she saw the screen playback on his computer.
