Zheng Ming glanced at the dense crowd upstairs before withdrawing his gaze and explained to Song Ling, “The trainees participating in the variety show are due to arrive this afternoon. Those downstairs are their fans.”
Zhao Xuan, puzzled, asked, “But it’s only morning now…”
Zheng Ming replied helplessly, “They’ve come early to wait.”
Outside the Gu Group building.
Song Yu, holding a banner with Zhong Chen’s name, shouted excitedly, “Zhong Chen, Zhong Chen, forever support Brother Zhong Chen!”
Lin Rong, standing beside Song Yu, also shouted for Zhong Chen with equal fervor.
Their voices drowned out by nearby fans. However, as the nearby fans became determined to outshout others, their voices growing louder, intent on overshadowing Song Yu and her group.
Song Yu, her voice hoarse from shouting, frustrated at being unable to outshout the fans of Lin Yu beside her, forcefully bumped into one of them.
Sheng Jia, fully focused on cheering for Lin Yu and unprepared for the impact, fell hard to the ground with a sharp scream.
The surrounding crowd fell silent at Sheng Jia’s cry.
Everyone turned to look in the direction of Sheng Jia and Song Yu, with someone asking, “What happened?”
After being helped up by a friend, Sheng Jia angrily confronted Song Yu, “Why did you bump into me?”
Song Yu, glancing at her newly done nails, replied indifferently, “It was just an accident. You’re too fragile, falling over so easily.”
Sheng Jia’s friend stepped forward, accusing, “It wasn’t an accident. I saw you deliberately bump into her after sizing her up. You did it on purpose!”
Song Yu chuckled lightly, “You caught me. Yes, I did it on purpose. But even if I did, what can you do about it?”
Sheng Jia, trembling with anger, demanded, “Apologize to me now, or I’ll call the staff!”
Song Yu, arms crossed, retorted disdainfully, “I’m the sister of Song Ling from Song Corporation, which has a partnership with Gu Group. What do you think they’ll do to me?”
Sheng Jia, face darkening, stepped forward and slapped Song Yu.
Song Yu, stunned for a few seconds, glared at Sheng Jia with fiery eyes before they started fighting.
Song Yu yelled to Lin Rong, “Aren’t you going to help?”
Sheng Jia’s friend, not one to back down, also joined the fray.
Security personnel arrived immediately to separate them and, after understanding the situation, quickly contacted the person in charge.
The person in charge arrived and asked what happened.
Sheng Jia hurriedly narrated the incident, “She started it and was extremely rude!”
Song Yu, with a disdainful smile, said, “I’m the sister of Song Ling from Song Corporation, which collaborates with Gu Group. If you upset me, I’ll have my brother withdraw from the partnership. Can you afford the loss that would cause Gu Group?”
The person in charge, after a moment’s thought, said, “First, go to the hospital to treat your injuries. We’ll deal with this after Chairwoman Gu returns.”
Unsatisfied, Song Yu coldly responded, “Gu Group sure is slow in handling matters. It wasn’t my fault. If she hadn’t annoyed me first, why would I have bumped into her?”
The person in charge pressed his lips together, remaining silent.
Song Yu threatened, “If you don’t acknowledge my innocence now, I’ll have my brother pull out his investment!”
Sheng Jia, trembling with anger, retorted, “You’re going too far, threatening others like that!”
Song Yu, smirking triumphantly, said, “Yes, I’m threatening. What can you, a poor person, do about it?”
She turned to the person in charge, who was wiping sweat from his brow, and asked, “What’s your decision? Do you think I’m not at fault?”
Just then, Gu Dai spoke up, “You’re not at fault for what?”
Song Yu froze. She followed the crowd’s gaze and saw Gu Dai, dressed in a simple black suit, with light makeup, looking sharp, efficient, and dazzling.
The person in charge hurried to Gu Dai’s side and briefed her on the situation.
Gu Dai’s gaze on Song Yu grew colder as she told the person in charge, “Go back to work. I’ll handle this.”
Song Yu rolled her eyes disdainfully, snorting at Gu Dai, perceiving her as putting on an act..
