Finally, Ming Shu firmly walked toward the props crew.
As a villain-opposed protagonist, how could she have a meal with Ning Keqing! She was professional, so she wouldn't go even if she was invited.
En... I won't go.
"Sister Jiang Nian..." Tian Yuan grabbed the food-oriented Ming Shu who was ready to rob the props crew. "Sister Aileen called, you're in trouble!"
"Eh?" What trouble? What trouble could I get into? I haven't eaten enough! I'm hungry, I want to eat.
Tian Yuan took Ming Shu back to the break room, leaving behind Ning Keqing who had on a strange expression.
Tian Yuan gave the cell phone to Ming Shu. Ming Shu glanced at Tian Yuan, currently blocking the door, and unwillingly answered the call. "Hello?"
The caller was waiting on Ming Shu. As soon as Ming Shu answered, a sharp female voice emerged from the cell phone. "Jiang Nian, whenever I don't watch you, you cause trouble for me. Did you go crazy yesterday? You directly bullied a newcomer at the film set. Do you know how those journalists like to report? Do you think you're not popular enough?"
"Well, I won't bully her at the film set next time."
"..."
You mean you're going to bully her someplace else?
Aileen couldn't be more angry. Jiang Nian was excellent and had been fostered by Aileen when she'd just entered showbiz. And as Aileen had expected, Jiang Nian became popular and eye-catching soon enough, and the company decided to propagandize her.
At first, the company wanted to establish a pure and innocent idol image for her. And things really went on as they had planned. However, at some point they couldn't quite recall, Jiang Nian began to be gossiped about alongside other male stars.
They could have explained the first rumors away as an accident, the ones that followed as fate. But what about one after another, continuously?
Jiang Nian was gossiped about every three to five days. At first, Aileen felt troubled and tried to deal with it, warning Jiang Nian. But it didn't work and Jiang Nian still did what she wanted.
Eventually she came to be called the Gossip Queen. As long as there was no photographic evidence, the company would let Jiang Nian go. Regardless, more love-related gossip would continue to circulate.
How about now?
She was not involved in romantic rumors now, but instead was caught openly bullying a newcomer!
Was she going to crown the headlines in a whole other way?
"Jiang Nian, tell me the truth, are you in any trouble?" Aileen asked, restraining her anger. Jiang Nian was tactful; she never offended others on her own initiative. And if somebody offended her, the company would deal with it for her.
So, logically, she wouldn't have had a need to bully a newcomer at the film set yesterday.
Ming Shu, holding the cell phone, sat down and said, "I'm in big trouble."
Ailen was astonished and asked, "What's the trouble?"
"I'm starving to death."
"..."
Aileen was already prepared to hear some great secret and even thought it might be something like "I have a boyfriend,""I'm pregnant," or "I killed somebody." But she was told that Ming Shu was only hungry.
