Chapter 4
After the long flight and a meeting that lasted the whole afternoon, Lu Jinnian looked exhausted . Sitting in his office, he casually took out the phone he had on silent while listening to his assistant report his schedule .
Just as he was about to lock his phone, a message came in . Lu Jinnian smoothly clicked it open, “‘To the End of Time’ filming completed . There’ll be a celebratory banquet tonight at 8 pm in Jing Chen hotel . Do drop by if you have the time!”
Lu Jinnian stared at the message for about five seconds before lifting his head indifferently . He nodded towards his assistant, acknowledging his report .
Lu Jinnian’s assistant had been working for him for many years, hence he was well acquainted with his boss’ aloof personality . Unperturbed by Lin Jin Nian’s lack of concern, he continued, “Mr . Lu, there are about six hours before the airplane takes off . Would you like to have dinner in the city or at the airport?”
“In the city,” Lu Jinnian replied faintly . Before his assistant could ask about the location, he continued, ” Jing Chen hotel . “
When Lu Jinnian and his assistant finished their meal, it was already 8 . 30 pm . They footed the bill before proceeding to the main door . Just as they reached it, Lu Jinnian stopped .
His assistant stopped immediately as well . “Mr Lu, is something wrong?”
Lu Jinnian remained silent for awhile and just when his assistant was started debating whether or not to repeat the question, he replied, “Wait for me in the car, I have something to do upstairs . “
He stood at the main door for a few more seconds before turning towards the lift .

Since everyone was focused on the director, no one noticed Qiao Anhao’s late arrival . She stood in the crowd, looking around before making a beeline for her manager Zhao Meng .
After the director’s brief speech, the dinner began .
Since it was a banquet, socializing and alcohol were customary .
Qiao Anhao wasn’t an A lister in the industry but her pretty face, perfect figure, good personality, and eloquence allowed her to shine, so she fit in perfectly .
Qiao Anhao was starving by the time she greeted everyone in the banquet . Without hesitation, she pulled Zhao Meng towards the buffet area . She filled her plate before randomly sitting down near a window . After a few bites, the originally boisterous banquet hall suddenly fell silent .
Qiao Anhao lifted her head in curiosity as she continued to munch on her food . Following the direction of the crowd’s gaze, she saw Lu Jinnian .

Eight Years Ago"Mom.." I say with a small smile on my face.My sister had passed her first music lesson and we're all so proud of her."What is it Layla!? can't you see I'm busy?!" She snaps."Oh.." I say, my smile faltering slightly, as I watch mom cuddle Heidi and give her lots of sweets as reward."C-can I have a sweetie too?" I ask.Mom laughs coldly. "Why should you? You've never achieved anything, have you?! Lazy little brat." Heidi giggles and I look at her to see a smirk on her face, making my face fall. I watch mom whisper things to Heidi, making her giggle even more.The door swings open, and my dad walks in.I smile again, running to him and hug his knees but he just brushes me off with an annoyed expression, walking towards my mom hugging her and ruffling Heidi's hair.What's going on?"Dad..ruffle my hair too?" I ask hesitantly.All three of them burst out laughing and I sink down in embarassment."Layla, we always knew you weren't the brightest kid here." He laughs "I just knew you'd be a screw up, right Luise?" He says and she nods."And I was right. You're a failure" He grabs my maths sheet, crumples it up and throws it at me. "You spend way too much time with your 'friends' never on your education, you ungrateful little brat. We should've got rid of you as soon as we found out you were on the way." He spits out spitefully as my mum nods, still smirking."Dad I'll do better, I promise!"I sob, tears streaming down my face, but he shakes his head, smirking. I look at my sister and walk towards her giving her a watery smile."H-Heidi... we're still friends right?" I ask, desperately.Her smirk slowly vanishes. she leans forward and I thought she'd hug me, but instead she pulls my hair and pushes me onto the floor making me scream.She laughs, my parents joining her."Stupid" she hisses, kicking me, before going to my parents, all of them walking out, leaving me on the floor, crying my eyes out.What have I done to deserve this?
