Hai Lan sneered disapprovingly. “Brother Dong, your worries are unnecessary.”
Chu Yang nodded as well. “We know our limits. As long as Lan Er and I sing the same tune, and with those pictures, Lin Wanwan will definitely not be able to deny it!”
“The two of you…” Facing these two idiots, Wang Dong was so angry that he was speechless.
In this circle, playing tricks was a means to things, but it was not necessary.
It was acceptable to use others as a stepping stone for their own benefits. The crux for them was that by doing so, besides being able to relieve their anger, there was nothing else they could gain from it. Instead, they had to bear high risks.
Like what?
At this moment, Chu Yang’s phone rang. He looked at the screen and said, “It’s Director An.”
He picked up the call. “Hello, Director…”
Without waiting for him to finish his words, An Qiao started speaking rapidly, “Chu Yang, I know you’re the one behind this. At the press conference later, I hope you don’t slander Lin Wanwan. Return her her innocence. If not, don’t blame me for being nasty!”
Chu Yang’s facial expression darkened. “What do you mean by that? Lin Wanwan was obviously the one who seduced me and wanted to use me as a stepping stone to…”
“Shut up!” An Qiao cut him off coldly. “That little girl probably don’t even know how to spell the word ‘seduce.’ How could she have done this? Using you for her own benefit? Aren’t you overestimating yourself here?”
An Qiao’s last sentence did not give Chu Yang any face.
In a fit of anger, Chu Yang ignored the looks his manager Wang Dong gave and said, “Whatever you say. Anyway, Lin Wanwan was the one who seduced me yesterday night. She wants to destroy my relationship with Hai Lan!”
All his individual scenes had finished filming. An Qiao would not dare take the risk to delete the scenes with the male and female leads. At the very most, they will no longer see eye to eye with each other and there will be no chances for future cooperation.
An Qiao was so angry that he started to laugh. “If you think Lin Wanwan can be so easily bullied, then you’re wrong!”
Although he did not have any deep conversations with Lin Wanwan before, he was sure that she had someone at her back who was protecting her.
For instance, the owner of the Rolls-Royce before, whom Old Tan addressed as Mr. Lu.
Chu Yang frowned. “What do you mean?”
He suppressed his sudden flusteredness and shouted while appearing to be tough outwardly, “What can this Lin Wanwan do? She only has that gigolo boyfriend, right? Director An, why must you say these to scare me?”
Gigolo? Was he referring to that Mr. Lu?
An Qiao’s heart skipped a beat and he finally gave him a piece of advice, “Chu Yang, if I were you, I will stop immediately. Maybe there’ll still be a chance of survival.”
The somberness in An Qiao’s tone made Chu Yang’s heart jump. The call had already ended.
A layer of haze clouded Chu Yang’s mind and he subconsciously tightened his hold on his mobile. “Lan Er, why don’t we forget about it…”
“No!” Hai Lan saw that his face had fallen, and a hint of disdain flashed past her heart.
“We have already done this. If we forget about it now, everyone will know that this was self-directed. How can we continue to stay in the entertainment circle? Furthermore, our chances of victory are high now. What are you afraid of?”
“But…”
“No buts. Time’s running out. It’s our turn to make an appearance!”
It was the point of no return. Chu Yang could only brace himself for the worst. He started the car and drove in the direction of the hotel.
The reporters who were eagerly waiting recognized Chu Yang’s car. They were too lazy to wait inside and swarmed out to surround the car.
Assistant driver Wang Dong wrapped his arms around his chest and laughed coldly. “You deal with your own mess. Don’t expect me to clean up after you!”
