Chapter 1219: Chapter 1218: Sincere Words with Weight

Zhang Zhiyou was momentarily stunned.

Alright, this news is somewhat unreliable, but...

"But you must have offended Mu Xiaoxiao."

"If she insists on minding it, there’s nothing I can do."

"You..."

Ye Ning sat down.

"Brother Zhiyou, you haven’t told me why you asked me to come. I was dealing with something and came right over when I heard your call."

Only then did Zhang Zhiyou remember that his purpose was to have a proper talk.

He just didn’t expect her to offend a bunch of people first when she arrived at the company.

He shook his head, feeling more worried.

Sitting next to Ye Ning, he finally said, "Ye Ning, I know I said I didn’t want to interfere in your personal life, but I need you to know, reaching the stage you’re at now wasn’t easy. I have high hopes for you, and I know you have the potential to keep climbing, but having potential alone isn’t enough in this circle. There are many whose potential didn’t lead them to success."

Zhang Zhiyou genuinely seemed earnest, making Ye Ning almost feel embarrassed about teasing him.

He continued, "And now, it’s getting harder to navigate this circle. You’ve seen it too; the pace at which hot topics refresh is getting faster. Today’s popular news is forgotten tomorrow. Someone who became famous from a TV series today might be forgotten tomorrow, and no one will remember what they acted in."

"So, having potential is useless unless you work hard."

"Ye Ning, if you want to go out and fall in love, or think that having a man who can bring you a lifetime of wealth is enough, I can’t meddle. But if such things delay your career, allowing you who could have been a superstar to become merely someone’s woman, letting you who could have your own identity become someone else’s tag, I really find it a pity."

Ye Ning looked at him, feeling somewhat touched.

She smiled, "Brother Zhiyou, I know, truly, I won’t give up because of anyone. You have to trust me."

Zhang Zhiyou said, "But can I trust you now? Look, wherever you go, it seems like you’re tied to that man. I really don’t know if he has such charisma to make you give up yourself, repeatedly being manipulated by him. Who exactly is this person making you so obedient? Ye Ning, you really can’t go off track. There was a good lesson in the past. Lian Jue, she was at Goddess level, but later, she insisted on marrying a wealthy businessman. Whatever the businessman wanted her to do, she’d do, ignoring her reputation. Now, the businessman grew tired and discarded her, and her reputation is gone too. You can’t rely on that."

Ye Ning thought, why does he think she’s sacrificing for someone else...

Clearly the one always pursuing her is Mu Yeli.

Moreover, they’re legally together.

Ye Ning said, "This..."

"Listen to me, don’t argue. I’m seriously advising you. If you don’t heed my warning, I’ll tell you, you’ll eventually ruin yourself!"

Ye Ning was shocked by him, staring blankly at him.

He fixed his gaze on Ye Ning.

After a moment of silence, seeing Ye Ning not saying anything, he asked, "Do you have anything to say?"

Ye Ning shook her head, she really didn’t know what to say now.

"You..."

Seeing her still silent, Zhang Zhiyou felt truly disappointed.

At this moment, Ye Ning’s phone rang.

She saw Mu Yeli’s number on the screen, swallowed, and said, "Let me take a call."

Zhang Zhiyou’s face was dark,

looking like he was bitterly disappointed.
