Behind the girl stood her manager; a woman wearing black-framed glasses. Her arms were crossed as she glared at Jennie.
She was aware Jennie had her methods, otherwise, how could an outdated model come out successful in a fight with Kang Seulgi and end up where she was today. Even so, she couldn't believe Jennie would dare to steal a Cheng Tian model's job. If they didn't stop her now, Jennie would become an even greater threat in the future.
Of course, they had no idea Jennie's next aim would be to join Cheng Tian!
The manager looked at Jennie. Through her contacts, she managed to find out how Jennie secured Luxury's opening; it was because of Lin Weisen.
He's a pretty big name...
But, now that Jennie was in the industry, the manager felt she should no longer dream of being able to suck up to the powerful while still maintaining her reputation. After all, she was hanging around with the ill-reputed Byun Baekhyun and Kang Seulgi; she might as well join them...
Not long after, the opening began to the sound of retro music. As the first model on stage, Jennie immediately became the center of attention. Her professionalism, her charm and her style held the show that was filled with newcomers together. It also opened the international media's eyes to the unlimited possibilities of an Asian model. At that time, a few of the guests even recognized Jennie as Ruby, who had once gone home with many newcomer awards; they were shocked but also pleasantly surprised...
...because on the runway, no one could compare to her radiance...she was completely dazzling.
At this time, Taehyung was sitting below the stage; this was his first time seeing Jennie do a show from close up. It was hard for him to imagine: this was his wife. Lin Weisen was also close by, as well as TQ's photographer who was snapping away on the camera; the scene in front of them was absolutely perfect. Everyone couldn't help but be amazed by her performance...
After the models took their bow and left the stage, Lin Weisen headed to the back of the stage to congratulate Jennie, "You are the best."
Jennie smiled as she politely shook Lin Weisen's hand, "Thank you, Mr. Lin."
"I'm already looking forward to TQ's October edition..."
After talking to Lin Weisen, Jennie changed back into her own clothes with Nayeon's help and left the venue; she couldn't wait to walk the streets of France hand-in-hand with Taehyung. Not long after the show ended, Nayeon received a phone call from Tianyi. Baekhyun wanted to know what was going on with Jennie.
Nayeon searched the news online and immediately came across some hot articles about Jennie: [Choi Jennie Vs Kang Seulgi: The Support Behind the Scheming], [The Men Behind Jennie]. The main point behind every article was that after every single battle between Jennie and Seulgi, Seulgi had been completely defamed, while Jennie continued to advance forward; the reason may not be because Jennie used the right methods, but because she had more men supporting her from behind.
One of the articles even mentioned Star Age and Lin Weisen who had been showing her support.
Most of the netizens still trusted Jennie, especially her fans who immediately started spreading videos of her shows and images from her magazine shoots. They wanted to prove, she completely depended on her own abilities to get to where she was today.
However, there were also some anti-fans. They claimed Jennie's EQ was too high and her IQ was frightening; she was too deceitful and was someone people should watch out for.
At that time, the internet was in chaos.
"How could having a high EQ be considered a negative trait...I really have to give it to them," Nayeon looked at the discussions online; she was so angry she was about to explode.
Jennie glanced at the discussions and laughed. After casually disguising herself, Jennie headed into the parking lot with Nayeon and boarded Taehyung's car.
"I saw the news..." Taehyung said before he started the car, "Now that your fame is increasing, attacks from all different direction will also increase. When faced with competition, people will scheme, you understand what I'm trying to say?"
"Of course. It's just that this time, Kang Seulgi has once again been given a chance to insult me..." Jennie understood well, so as usual, she wasn't going to respond; she knew the more she tried to explain herself, the more it would seem like she was hiding something. Since someone was helping her gain exposure, she might as well accept it; this was the reality of the entertainment industry.
"You don't want to contain it?" Nayeon questioned Jennie. To be exact, she was chasing Taehyung for an answer.
However, Taehyung and Jennie already had an agreement: he wasn't gong to interfere in her career. He had already broken his promise with the Byun Risa incident, so this time, he didn't have enough reason to forcefully help his wife.
"Nayeon, don't forget. My management agency is still Tianyi."
Seeing the couple remaining calm, Nayeon relaxed, "OK, you guys have fun. I will keep my eye on the situation in Beijing."
Jennie smiled at Nayeon in relief, "Help me reassure the fans. Tell them I have not been affected."
Meanwhile, it was almost night time in Beijing. Under Baekhyun's coercion, Seulgi agreed to keep their child. Of course, she only did this to buy time. With the sudden release of Jennie's news, Seulgi sat in Baekhyun's office and sneered, "I told you before...there was no way Jennie would be pure...now that she has been exposed, will you help her? or will you take the advantage to step on her even harder?"
"Shut up!" Baekhyun warned.
After the incident with Seulgi, Baekhyun had become warier than before. Although he did consider reconciling with Jennie...the thought of Star Age's CEO and Lin Weisen, made his heart become cold like ice.
Seulgi was disgusting, but Jennie wasn't any better.
It seemed he couldn't place his hope on either woman.
"If you won't get PR to help her, then I won't be able to resist defaming her. It wasn't easy to get this opportunity," Seulgi laughed.
Baekhyun did not respond; it didn't seem like a bad idea to damage Jennie's spirit a little.
Afterwards, Seulgi rang her assistant, "Leak some information: while shooting for the magazine in the US, Jennie didn't follow the organizer's arrangements, instead she was fooling around with an unknown man and went to live with him. Releasing this information right now would be perfect timing...be careful not to let anyone know you did it."
Seulgi was an eyesore to Baekhyun as the coldness in his heart thickened...
However, he didn't realize, he was merely the pot calling the kettle black...
Of course, it was expected that Seulgi would defame Jennie like this; Jennie just treated it like Seulgi's last hurrah because as the Annual Model Awards approached, Seulgi was getting closer to falling into the depths of the abyss...
