Qin Entertainment.
“Tell me, what’s going on?”
Sister Liu sat on the chair and gulped down a few cups of water. Only then did she suppress the anger in her heart. In the end, she could not hold it in and turned her head to glare at Cheng Chuchu.
“Sister Liu, what are you talking about? I don’t understand…”
Cheng Chuchu furrowed her brows innocently. Unfortunately, before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Sister Liu, “Keep pretending, keep pretending! I want to see how you will turn out in the future!”
As she spoke, Sister Liu took out the reports from the past two days from the terminal and slammed them on the table with a loud thud. She sighed in disappointment and said, “Forget it, take a look for yourself. Look at how your image has been ruined!”
Cheng Chuchu could not help but be stunned when she saw Sister Liu’s exceptionally grave expression.
Only then did she reach out to pick up the report on the table.
Her face turned pale instantly.
“The newly-promoted actress Cheng Chuchu is willing to expose herself in order to compete for the position.”
“The pure and sweet girl has transformed into a sexy beauty!”
“Cheng Chuchu is ranked first in the most unexpected top ten female stars!”
…
These reports were all meant to ruin her reputation and destroy the good image that she had created in the past!
“No, this is not the truth!” Even after wiping her blush, Cheng Chuchu’s face was still a little pale. Her hands were holding onto these articles tightly, and her eyes were wide open!
To be honest, she was really unlucky these days…
All kinds of accidents happened frequently. Either there was a problem with her clothes when she went on stage, or she accidentally fell in front of everyone. Most importantly, during the event, she was basically wearing a skirt. So, it was inevitable that she would be exposed!
In the beginning, this incident had caused a few small explosive points, and her attention quickly rose.
For this reason, she was secretly happy for a period of time.
However, later on, the development of the situation suddenly became out of control.
Just because of this series of accidents, she was recognized as a scheming b*tch who ‘ddid not hesitate to show off in order to gain fame’!
The internet was filled with curses towards her!
Her fans could not resist it either. The speed of their loss was like running water. Just looking at her made their hearts ache!
In order to suppress these rumors, she even paid a large sum of money to bribe a group of Internet trolls, hoping to turn her reputation around.
Originally, the situation had started to improve in the past few days. However, the few reports that her manager had brought to her had completely dealt a heavy blow to her!
One had to know that these few reports were not ordinary tabloids. Instead, they were published by a few news agencies that were publicly recognized as more authoritative by the Federation. Once they confirmed the truth, it would be a done deal and there would be no doubt about it.
Could it be that a female star that had a bright future had been ruined because of these few incidents?
It was only at this moment that Cheng Chuchu completely panicked.
Her big watery eyes immediately turned red. She looked up at her manager with a face full of hope and explained incoherently, “No, Sister Liu, you have to believe me. This… isn’t real…”
“Enough.” Seeing Cheng Chuchu’s expression, Sister Liu rubbed the space between her furrowed brows and let out a light sigh. “What’s the use of just me trusting you in this matter? Everyone has to trust you!”
“And…” As expected of a smart person in the entertainment industry, Sister Liu quickly noticed that something was wrong. She muttered to herself, “I don’t know why, but I keep feeling that there’s something strange about this matter.”
It seemed like someone was doing something behind her back…?
“That’s right!” After a long while, Sister Liu finally reacted. She patted her own head and turned to look at Cheng Chuchu. Her tone was slightly serious. “Think about it carefully… did you offend someone before?”
Otherwise, with Cheng Chuchu’s ability alone, how could she trouble these big well-known media companies to write articles for her? There must be a mastermind behind this!
“… Who did you offend?” Hearing this, Cheng Chuchu could not help but frown.
To be honest, in the entertainment industry, there were not many resources for them, who were neither high nor low-level, but this batch of celebrities was endless.
Usually, if you were not trying to trip me up, or if I stole your role, how could I not offend someone?
“Quickly think about it.” Seeing this, Sister Liu’s frown deepened. “Let me tell you, this matter isn’t a joke. If it wasn’t because you were brought out from my hands, I wouldn’t have bothered with this matter!”
After saying this, Sister Liu did not bother with her anymore. She opened the terminal, ready to see if there was any new news today. This was also one of the necessary homework for an excellent manager.
Only by constantly keeping up with the latest news could one make the best choice for the artistes under one’s control.
Just like that, with a glance, she caught sight of today’s ‘Mo Chu’s coming-of-age’ headline.
She sighed in her heart. Look, as an artist, she had to do what Mo Chu did. She did not even need to sell news to increase his popularity. The media reporters smiled obsequiously and came knocking on her door.
When she looked at the accompanying picture on the report, Sister Liu could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Damn! There was too much gold and silver in this Blessing Basin… Three basins were filled up! However, when she scrolled to the last Blessing Basin, Sister Liu’s expression froze..
If she was not mistaken, there seemed to be a person in this basin. “Ning Yiyuan!”
“What?” Cheng Chuchu, who was beside her, heard this exclamation. She was stunned at first, then a thought flashed through her mind, and her eyes suddenly widened!
Ning Yiyuan… Mo Chu!
… that nude dress!
Cheng Chuchu was suddenly enlightened!
She had never considered Mo Chu before because she thought that she had done it flawlessly. Moreover, more than half a month had passed, and she had even forgotten about this matter.
If Sister Liu had not suddenly mentioned this, she would not have thought of this matter!
“Why, have you figured out who it is?” Sister Liu turned her head and happened to see Cheng Chuchu’s enlightened look. She could not help but ask.
“This… that time…” Cheng Chuchu hesitated and did not explain clearly.
Sister Liu was instantly furious. “Cheng Chuchu, you have to be clear! Now is not the time for you to play with your temper. When that time comes, you really won’t be able to establish yourself in the entertainment industry. Don’t blame me!”
Since her manager’s words had come to this point, Cheng Chuchu did not dare to keep it a secret anymore. She told her what had happened in the past.
“It was during the first phase of the Food Show… when she went up the stairs, her clothes were torn. I saw it and didn’t say anything… But can you blame me? It wasn’t me who tore it on purpose! What does this have to do with me!” As she finished speaking, Cheng Chuchu became even more confident.
Sister Liu was so angry that she trembled and did not speak for a long time.
Cheng Chuchu lowered her head and did not notice Sister Liu’s strange behavior. When she heard that Sister Liu did not answer her, her thoughts went astray again. She frowned and shook her head, “That’s not right! There wasn’t even a camera in that area. How did Ning Yiyuan find out? No, it’s also possible that he wasn’t behind this…”
Slap!
Before Cheng Chuchu could finish her sentence, Sister Liu slapped her on the head. “Are you stupid? Who is Ning Yiyuan? He has been in the army for so many years. With just a glance, he would know what tricks you have up your sleeves! Is there a need to investigate?”
“Besides, so what if there are no cameras? So what if there is no evidence? He can crush us with a finger. What reason does he need?”
Sister Liu could not help but get angry when she said this. “What did I tell you guys back then? I repeatedly emphasized that you must get along well with Mo Chu! is that how you did it?”
Hmph! How capable was the Ning Family? How could they not know?
If you wanted to take an egg to hit a rock, it would be weird if you did not break it into pieces!
Sister Liu could not be bothered to talk to her anymore. She took the thing, turned around, and prepared to leave.
“Don’t!” When Sister Liu opened her mouth to talk to her, Cheng Chuchu finally understood. She had really offended someone, and it was Ning Yiyuan!
“Sister Liu, it’s my fault. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have disobeyed you. Please help me! If you don’t help me, I really have no way out!” Cheng Chuchu pulled on Sister Liu’s sleeve, she cried so hard that her body trembled slightly.
Sister Liu lowered her head and looked at her for a long time. In the end, she could not bear to part with this artiste that she had brought up by herself. She gritted her teeth, “Alright! Since you’ve said so, I’ll accompany you on another trip to see if I can save this matter.”
“How?” Cheng Chuchu raised her head. Her eyes, which had been washed by tears, were even brighter and more moving.
“There are two ways.” Sister Liu did not keep her in suspense and said, “Either we go to Ning Yiyuan and ask for mercy, or we go to Mo Chu and ask for mercy.”
To put it bluntly, the root of Cheng Chuchu’s matter lay in the two of them. The person responsible for solving the problem still needed to be the one responsible. As long as they were willing to show mercy, Cheng Chuchu’s matter was not a big deal.
Although her image had been damaged, as long as there was no one on top to suppress her, it would be easy for her to clear her name once the time was up.
“But… the headquarters, we can’t enter it, right?” After hesitating for a long time, Cheng Chuchu could not help but reveal a troubled expression.
She had never thought of asking Mo Chu for mercy. After all, it was common for women to make things difficult for women, not to mention in their competitive entertainment industry. It was already considered good if Mo Chu did not continue to suppress her!
Therefore, she crossed the line behind this option.
In comparison, it was more reliable to plead with Ning Yiyuan. However, it was not that easy to meet someone at his level.
Sister Liu naturally understood Cheng Chuchu’s thoughts. She reached out and swiped the terminal, zooming in on an address.
“Gene level testing center?”
“That’s right.” Sister Liu nodded with a smile.
According to the rules, once Mo Chu’s coming of age ceremony was completed, he would immediately be sent here to test his gene level. Ning Yiyuan would definitely be there as well. At that time, they would only need to wait for him
