Jung Jianguo walked into the arrivals to see Xue Meili standing with a face mask and glasses.
He wouldn't have recognized her easily if it wasn't for her Play Hard work Hard LiLi t-shirt that he had costume made in the states when she was cast in her first movie Bach then.
She always looked beautiful to him no matter what she wore, even in an oversized white t-shirt with a drunk emoji in front. As soon as he got closer she jumped into his hands, now that was what home felt like.
They remained that way for a few minutes before Jung Jianguo broke the hug and wrapping his arms around her they began walking out of the airport and into Xue Meili's car.
Xue Meili has never been a fan of someone else driving her so it was no surprise that she drove to the airport.
Jung Jianguo put his bags into the car before taking a seat in front next to Xue Meili who was seated at the driver seat.
After a thirty minutes drive from the airport, they finally arrived at their Villa and we're received by the servants who helped unload Jung Jianguo's bags.
Xue Meili had arranged for the chef to prepare all of Jung Jianguo's favourite meals for dinner so as soon as Jung Jianguo walked into the house he was hit by delicious aromas that he stopped going forward and instead began taking in the aromas.
Xue Meili who was right behind him giggled then said
"Jianguo,you must be tired after the journey why don't you have your wash up and then come down for dinner".
"em" Jung Jianguo replied and began going up.
Xue Meili watched Jung Jianguo walking up to the master bedroom and after a few minutes turned to the Steward said
"uncle hass everything been set?
"Yes madam" Steward Lee said..
"thank you" Xue Meili said and was about to go up to the master bedroom when her phone began to ring.
She brought out the phone and after checking the caller identification to be Empress dowager Tang Fenfeng, she swiped and picking the call said
"Hello, Meili Greets Empress dowager Tang".
"This unruly girl, hmm should have stopped my grandson from marrying you" Tang Fenfeng said playfully, they had been calling euch other Empress dowager and unruly girl since they were teenager's
."How was your visit to your in-laws"Xue Meili said,
Tang Fenfeng and Cheng Juan had visited his parents and grandfather at the Cheng family Villa.
"It was surprisingly uneventful well at least for me" Tang Fenfeng said.
Her visits to Cheng Family villa usually resulted in her booting heads with Cheng Juan's mother who made it her duties to enquire about her health states specifically if she was pregnant.
She and Cheng Juan's mother don't have a normal mother and daughter-in-law relationship.
Their relationship usually involved Mother Cheng finding faults with her but she never took that to heart as she already knew that mother Cheng always bragged about her even when her medical records were leaked mother Cheng Defended her openly.
The truth was that even though she wasn't Mother Cheng's choice for Juan, she still won her over mother Cheng just didn't wish to show it.
"Hmm how's aunty Cheng? Xue Meili said.
Madam Cheng and her mother were in a few charities together they had met at Tang Fenfeng and Cheng Juan's wedding and had been in touch since then.
"Very Good, Meili why didn't you tell me that you were having problems with the crew, I had to hear it from Juan? Tang Fenfeng said over the phone.
Meili had always been too accommodating but what happened was unacceptable considering it affected her health, it's a miracle that she didn't break down.
"Ah so that's why you called? Xue Meili said.
If Cheng Juan was aware of this, it was safe to assume that Jianguo was also aware of this situation and was pretending otherwise.
"Yes it is Meili you are the female lead of FATED no matter what anyone says and hence should act like one, your health is important to the progress of the drama and so when threatened you are obligated to protect it. I am very disappointed at the crews action but otherwise not surprised that Feng Mimi has her claws deep in but not for long.it's only a matter of time before they see her true colors" Tang Fenfeng said.
"Alright I was wrong, you said that the dinner was uneventful for you so what happened that was so eventful? Xue Meili said changing the conversation
"I see what you are doing but I've said my piece and I know that I can't make you change your mind on that matter so I will play along, The dinner was going well until Juan's younger sister Cheng Ruolan announced that she and Gu Chuanli were getting a divorce Mother did not take it well, we're still at the Villa" Tang Fenfeng replied.
"Wow am surprised I always taught Ruolan was happily married to Gu Chuanli" Xue Meili said picturing in her mind the beautiful business couple that always seamed to be well matched together.
The media always praised them for being a loving couple since their marriage six years ago.
"Me too but since she filled for a divorce it seems that they have been having issues, everyone is shocked even Juan who always thought he and Ruolan were close" Tang Fenfeng said.
The divorce has everyone shocked mother Cheng is even refusing to accept the situation and is shouting at Ruolan to get back together with her husband. This is the first time that she and Jianyu were staying over without being asked.
"Ruolan must have her reasons, Does this mean that you will be taking a leave from shooting? Xue Meili said.
she could just imagine what was going on in the Cheng family Villa, when her cousin Xue Hualing announced her divorce from her first husband after just two years of marriage the family was surprised considering that she already had a child.
She initially refused to say her reasons but after an investigation they later discovered that her husband has been beating her mercilessly for the entire years of marriage and she had lost a child just two weeks before filing for a divorce due to his frequent beatings that she finally surmount up the courage to file for a divorce.
"I don't doubt that but she's refusing to say her reasons, Mother is now convinced that she has no solid reasons everything is a mess here, Meili I have to go now old master Cheng just asked for me, bye" Tang Fenfeng said and cut the call as she walked into the old master's study.
As soon as Ruolan announced her divorce the Everyone stoped eating and became agitated that dinner was concluded and everyone moved to his sturdy for an emergency family meeting.
She had left the sturdy to call Meili when she began feeling nauseated and left to get some fresh air.
She walked in and took a seat next to Juan who quickly handed her some snacks that the chef made as they didn't finished their dinner before having the meeting.
They were supposed to announce their good news to the family during dinner but weren't able to.
As soon as the snacks were brought to her she suddenly felt nauseated and holding her chest quickly rushed to the toilet shocking everyone, it didn't take long for them to guess the reason. Not long after Cheng Juan proved them right when Tang Fenfeng returned and holding her hand he said
"Fenfeng is three months pregnant"
