Chapter 53: Punishment Game
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After Zhou Yun found out about Si Cheng’s attitude, she knocked on the table at Tan Si. “The faster you respond to the news, the faster its effect will be. Responding within 24 hours is the best time for public relations, do you understand?! We have to come up with the best plan before noon today. Now that it’s come to this, we’re hanging in midair. What exactly do you want?”
Tan Si was a pampered young lady. Si Cheng’s attitude made her anxious to begin with. Now that she saw Zhou Yun, a worker, being arrogant and demanding in front of her, she was even more dissatisfied. If not for the fact that she still had to rely on her to find opportunities, she would have fallen out with her long ago.
Tan Si lowered her eyes and could only find an excuse to stall for time. She replied helplessly, “I have no choice. It’s not that easy to get a divorce for a wealthy family. It wasn’t easy for Tan Ming to marry into a wealthy family. Now, she’s clinging onto Si Cheng and refusing to get a divorce. Si Cheng said that he would settle it as soon as possible.”
Zhou Yun thought of the Si family’s status in Sea City and did not say anything else about Tan Si. After all, if Tan Si could rely on this power, she could use this relationship to negotiate for better opportunities in the future. Whether she could snatch the position of the company’s number one manager would depend on Tan Si!
Zhou Yun looked at the manager of the Public Relations Department. “Manager Chen, this is the situation now. Do you have any good solutions?”
Manager Chen projected the latest response plan on the screen. “The photos that have been circulated so far were taken when she went to the hospital for a prenatal checkup. However, those photos are very blurry. The recent photos can be seen to have been secretly taken, but only Tan Si and the medical staff were captured.”
“We have two proposals here. The first is to deny it no matter what. Previously, you said that you had helped Tan Si to spot a role in a modern life drama. The content happens to be about a couple in modern society, dealing with issues from wedding dresses and pregnancy, to childbirth and schooling. Just say that in order to get the role, Tan Si pretended to be a pregnant woman and went to the hospital to experience such a life. Anyway, you signed a confidentiality agreement with those people. When the time comes, hit them with the high penalty. They probably won’t have the guts to spout nonsense.”
“The second plan is to admit it directly. Let’s say that Tan Si and the child’s father met a year ago and that the two of them fell in love at first sight. However, they had no choice but to separate for some reason. Unexpectedly, she realized that she was actually pregnant. Because Tan Si loved the child’s father deeply, she decided to give birth to the child for love and raise him alone.”
“This plan will give Tan Si the image of the woman in the ‘Come Back My Love’ novel. Many fans will think that this love is very beautiful because of the trope in the novel of “you chase after me and 1 escape”.”
Tan Si’s eyes lit up when she heard that. “I like the second one! That way, when Si Cheng and 1 get married, the child can be in public openly.”
Zhou Yun also agreed with the second one, but she was not as optimistic as Tan Si. She was considering more on the fact that if Si Cheng went back on his word and refused to get married, they could use this opportunity to turn Tan Si into an independent woman who dared to love and hate. She could attack and retreat at will!
Zhou Yun made the decision quickly. “Let’s follow the second plan.”
At this moment, Jiang Huai was worried about how to punish Tan Si in the game. He would definitely let the others take it lightly, but when it came to Tan Si, he had to let Tan Si make a fool of herself.
Tan Ming happened to be home. Jiang Huai hurriedly asked, “Sister, what does Tan Si care about the most?”
Before Tan Ming finished changing her shoes, Jiang Huai had already rushed in front of her. She thought for a moment and said, “She cares about reputation the most, and is most concerned over not losing face herself.”
Jiang Huai quickly had an idea. First, he found a video of a gorilla patting its chest online. Then, he tagged Tan Si and the production team’s official account on the Internet and sent it over. The accompanying text said in a joking tone, “Please reconstruct the gorilla’s expression and actions in the video. Does anyone want to see this beautiful imitation? You can look forward to Miss Tan Si’s imitation as a professional actress!”
The netizens were all waiting for Tan Si’s response to yesterday’s revelation, so after knowing about the Jiang Huai @Tan Si interaction, they all ran to his comments section to join in the fun.
[Interesting. Tan Si has probably gone bald from worry. She doesn’t have time to do your punishment mission.]
[Jiang Huai, don’t go too far. How did our Si Si offend you? You’re insulting her like this!] [Previous poster, you call the imitation class that all actors have to attend an insult?! Did Jiang Huai insult her or ask her to do something immoral? Tan Si is not a newbie in the industry anymore.. If she really can’t imitate well, I think she’s the one who insulted her graduation certificate!]
