Su Xiaofei's assumptions were spot on.

At that very moment, Ye Mingyu was seated behind the wheels of her car, looking frantically left and right to make sure she wasn't being followed by anyone. Whether it was Cai Lin nor those loan sharks, she didn't want to see any of them right now.

Cai Lin had somehow lost a few screws in his head and thought that they were still together and in love with each other. It had been years since she cut ties with him, but the man insisted that they were still in a relationship and refused to leave her alone. He broke into her previous apartment and thankfully, she wasn't at home and had managed to avoid him.

Ye Mingyu paid the damages he left in her apartment to her landlord, but the last straw that forced her to move out was when the loan sharks her mother was indebted to started showing up at her door.

'Damn it!' Ye Mingyu thought as she hit the steering wheel in front of her. Her mother was already dead, but she was still giving her a headache and difficulties to this day.

It seemed to Ye Mingyu that the issues she had been running away from in her previous life had somehow been able to follow her here in this lifetime.

How did those people know where she lived anyway? She had been very careful with her words and made sure to use different routes whenever she was on her way back home.

It had been hard enough for her to get the female lead role from Xiao Rufeng because a certain someone had made sure to rub the difference between her and Xiao Rufeng in her face. Xiao Rufeng was an heiress and she, Ye Mingyu, was nothing but a daughter of a convicted criminal.

Ye Mingyu had tried her best to step away from her father's infamous reputation, but she hadn't thought that her mother would give her a pain in the ass long after she was gone.

'She knew she was dying. She could have put those monies to good use and saved them for me.' She thought with a grim expression on her face.

Her mother knew that chemotherapy was expensive and with the way her cancer progressed, her chances of living were quite low. She then remembered reading the news that Yun Qingrong managed to dodge death this time, but was still in a coma.

'Lucky bastard.' She scoffed, thinking that the only reason why her mother was dead and Yun Qingrong was alive was because the latter had a lot of money at her disposal.

Ye Mingyu hated her mother even in her previous life. If it wasn't because of Ye Xing, she wouldn't have to lead a life filled with bitterness. Her mother was the cause of her problems and suffering, and the more she thought about it, the more hatred she felt in her heart.

It would have been better if her mother chose to give up her custody to her father and allowed her to live with them instead. She didn't mind living with Yun Qingrong and Su Xiaofei because she was certain she could get rid of them eventually.

Someone knocked on the window of her car and she turned to see who it was, her expression immediately turned into horror. She screamed for her dear life while the man outside laughed uncontrollably like a demon.

This was the same man who kicked her door weeks ago and demanded money from her. It seemed like he had brought more people to intimidate and harass her this time, as Ye Mingyu spotted a group of men she hadn't noticed earlier after leaving the shopping mall.

She immediately ignited the engine of her car and drove away in panic. She ignored the fact that she was in a crying mess and was trembling in fear. Ye Mingyu ignored the red light and didn't bother to stop, hoping they wouldn't be able to catch up on her.

Did they think that just because she secured a role in a TV series, she was now swimming in a lot of money?

Heck. She couldn't even buy things that she wanted to and even if she had money, she wouldn't pay any of them.

All of these wouldn't have happened if things had gone according to her plan. She thought that by getting close to Mo Yuchen, she would be able to get a hold on him and use him against Su Xiaofei. She also thought that by becoming his woman, she would be able to use his influence and get rid of her problems.

Thankfully, Top Tier Entertainment took pity on her this time and allowed her to stay at one of the residences they provided for their artists. Not only did she not need to pay for her own rent, but she also didn't have to worry about her door being kicked down by these hooligans.

Still, it didn't mean she would be safe once she stepped out of the apartment complex. Ye Mingyu knew that those men and Cai Lin were lurking out there, waiting for the right chance to corner her again. See, just look at what happened when she lowered her guard.

'I need help. Someone who can help me get rid of them.'

Ye Mingyu knew that she couldn't run away forever, and that she needed to do something. Didn't she lose her life previously because she had been running from them? She wouldn't allow it to happen this time.

But from whom should she ask for help? She asked herself as she pulled her car to a stop.

Her useless father was still in prison. Feng Xue'er refused to have anything to do with her since their high school graduation. Mo Yuchen specifically threatened her not to show herself in front of him ever again. She had no friends or relatives she could rely on.

No— she knew someone who might be able to help her this time.
