Chapter 351 Lin Jiali Feels Touched VS Luo Yi’s Arrogance
During Su Yang’s meeting, Lin Jiali and her assistant, Ah Duo, had been standing at the entrance of the office like two ordinary statues.
When they came back to their senses, they realized that everyone had disappeared.
The two of them looked at each other and said in unison, “Ah Duo.” “Sister Jiali.”
The overlapping sound made both of them stop involuntarily.
Lin Jiali looked at Ah Duo and said with a complicated expression, “You go first.”
Ah Duo looked at Lin Jiali carefully. “Sister Jiali, did you know about the new boss?”
Lin Jiali shook her head.
Ah Duo looked at her, her face filled with hopelessness. “Do you think the new boss will fire me…”
Lin Jiali did not know that Ah Duo was making things difficult for Su Yang, so she asked in confusion, “Why would Su Yang fire you?”
Ah Duo covered her face. ‘Why? Of course it’s because I stopped him from going after you!’
Every time she thought about this, she felt like crying. ‘Why did I have to stick my nose into other people’s business? If not for me, would Sister Jiali and her boss would have already gotten together…
‘By then, wouldn’t Sister Jiali have more resources to support her?’
However, she really did not know Su Yang’s identity! She had always thought that Su Yang was an illegitimate child of unknown origin. That was why she was afraid that Su Yang would hurt Lin Jiali.
During the years when she was Lin Jiali’s assistant, Ah Duo realized that she really liked this female celebrity who did not put on any airs and was a little silly. She treated her very well and was extremely pretty.
After all, apart from being a little silly, a little narcissistic, and lacking in EQ, Lin Jiali liked to be jealous of Han Yi, complain, had a vicious tongue, and liked to daydream. She was temperamental-happy one second, depressed the next… Other than that, she was simply a perfect goddess.
Ah Duo’s own house was even filled with photos of Lin Jiali because to her, she was the kind of beauty that made people happy just by looking at her. She even felt that she was full just by licking Lin Jiali’s face and didn’t need to eat at all.
Hence, protecting her became Ah Duo’s main mission for the past few years.
However, who would’ve known that this time, she would be protecting Lin Jiali from her own boss.
Ah Duo was in despair. Her heart was beating like a drum. She hoped that she would not be fired. If she was fired, how could she stay by Sister Jiali’s side?
Both Ah Duo and Lin Jiali felt complicated.
She really could not imagine how a hardcore fan like Su Yang could become her boss.
‘Did this world take the wrong script? It combined the two characters that clearly can’t work together.
‘Or, could it be that… Su Yang has ulterior motives?’
At the thought of this, Lin Jiali suddenly recalled her conversations with Su Yang after the company changed hands. She quickly asked Ah Duo to take out her phone from her bag. Although Ah Duo didn’t know what was wrong with Lin Jiali, she still obediently took out her phone and passed it to Lin Jiali.
Lin Jiali unlocked her phone and opened WeChat. She then scrolled through her chat history with Su Yang.
[New boss? Who knows what kind of pervert he is? Stupid c*nt!)
(What if he wants to sleep with me? What if he wants me to go out to drink with him? What if he bought this company for me? Ahhh! I’m so annoyed!)
When she saw the message that she sent to Su Yang after knowing that the company had changed owners, Lin Jiali felt a little dizzy. Was she scolding the bald donkey while pointing at a monk?
‘What have I done?’
She continued reading:
[Su Yang! Do you think I should write a will in advance? If anything happens to me and I jump off a building, you’re my most loyal fan. You have to avenge me! When a man gets angry, his blood will splash everywhere! I don’t need you to risk your life for me but you have to expose him on the Find Me app! You have to ruin his reputation!]
‘Great. I actually let Su Yang catch me and expose me. What a genius! Lin Jiali, you’re awesome!’
Lin Jiali continued to read on. The following records were much more normal. Su Yang was the one who lied to her about him knowing how to read fortunes. However, with Tan Mei’s explanation, Lin Jiali also understood why Su Yang was so calculative. It was because he used fortune-telling to fulfill his wishes with Tan Mei…
Lin Jiali could not help but feel touched…
Truth be told, Su Yang was really good to her. Even if she often looked for him in the middle of the night and complained to him, he would always reply to her without complaining. Whenever she encountered trouble, she would look for Mei at the first moment to resolve it for her.
She could not help but feel the softest part of her heart being touched. This… perhaps this was the happiness of being silently protected? However, when she saw Su Yang lying to her about using the bedsheets to read her fortune, Lin Jiali blushed.
She did not think much about it before, but now that she thought about it… was Su Yang hinting at something?
After looking through all the WeChat messages, Lin Jiali felt a mix of emotions in her heart. She wanted to talk to Su Yang, talk to him, and vent to him.
She was someone who would do anything she thought of. Hence, she dragged Ah Duo upstairs to have a good chat with Su Yang!
The moment she went upstairs, she saw Su Yang walking out of the conference room.
Their eyes met. Su Yang’s eyes were calm as if he had a clear conscience.
On the other hand, Lin Jiali’s eyes were filled with complicated emotions. There was doubt, curiosity, worry, surprise, and so on. However, in summary, there was only one sentence: You lied to me so bitterly…
When Su Yang saw Lin Jiali, he nodded and said, “Wait for me.”
With that, he led the other artists to the general manager’s office.
Lin Jiali did not listen to Su Yang. She had never been an obedient person. She sneaked into the office to listen to what Su Yang had to say. Arriving at Tan Mei’s general manager’s office, Su Yang walked straight to Tan Mei’s desk and opened her first drawer. He took out the tea leaves that she placed in the first drawer skillfully and poured some into a disposable paper cup. Then, he went to the water dispenser to get some hot water.
Su Yang returned to his desk with a cup of tea and sat down. He looked at the celebrities who were standing in front of him nervously and said, “You should know very well why I called you here.”
Other than Lin Jiali and Yang Meiyue, the other six celebrities felt their hearts skip a beat.
The C-list celebrity, Luo Yi, was fine. He had no expression on his face, as if he had something to rely on.
The remaining five trainees’ legs were already shaking.
Actually, ever since Chu Hong’s accident, the five trainees had already felt that something was wrong, so they had formed a group to plead with Tan Mei, hoping that the company would let them go.
Tan Mei was a soft-hearted person. Hence, under their pleading, she went to look for Lin Jiali and asked her to put in a good word for Su
Yang.
However, Lin Jiali was in a daze and had long forgotten about this matter…
When they saw Su Yang, the five trainees recognized him. After all, the fact that Su Yang chased Director Wang away was shocking.
Therefore, the moment they saw Su Yang, they were scared out of their wits. In their hearts, Su Yang could be compared to Satan.
Later, in the conference room, Su Yang dismissed Chu Hong. They were all scared out of their wits.
Then, when Su Yang sent all the management staff to clean the toilets, they were so frightened that they almost knelt down.
Now… the trial has finally arrived.
Amongst the trainees, a trainee who often hung out with Yang Meiyue raised his trembling hands. “Y-Yes.”
Su Yang took a sip of tea. “Good that you know.”
He paused. “Then tell me what you think.”
Yang Meiyue stood at the side, completely unaware of what had happened. The other five trainees looked at each other. They were afraid and did not dare to speak.
At that moment, the C-list celebrity, Luo Yi, spoke up. He looked at Su Yang without a hint of nervousness. “Director Su, right? I’m Luo Yi. I believe you’ve heard of me.” Su Yang followed the voice and looked over. Luo Yi was a young hunk. He was fair and clean. Even though he looked a little feminine, he was very handsome. He was the type of person that female fans liked. Su Yang looked at him and shook his head. “Never heard of him.”
Luo Yi was about to say something when his expression froze. It was as if Su Yang’s reply had humiliated him.
He glared at Su Yang. “Me! A new actor! Luo Yi! You don’t know him?”
Su Yang shook her head again. “I’m sorry, I really don’t know you. Who are you?” Luo Yi had never been so angry before!
Actually, he was not a celebrity promoted by the New Arts Culture. Long before he jumped ship to New Arts Culture, he had become popular and attracted countless fans because he played the second male lead in a popular television drama.
Although Lin Jiali was good-looking and had a lot of male fans, male fans in the TV industry were almost non-existent. Hence, even though Lin Jiali was popular in two shows, she was still not famous.
However, he was different. He was handsome, and all the female fans were infatuated with him. Therefore, he became famous with just one movie.
Then, Chu Hong offered him a huge sum of money, and with all kinds of generous conditions, she poached him into the New Arts Culture.
Even though New Arts Culture was a small company, the agency that he used to work for was even smaller. Furthermore, Chu Hong had a certain amount of status and experience in the industry, and her qualifications were very good. That was what moved him.
It was also because of this that his status in New Arts Culture was extraordinary.
Even though he and Lin Jiali were both C-list celebrities, his income and fans’ appeal far exceeded Lin Jiali’s. One of them was at the bottom of the C-list rankings, while the other was at the peak.
Therefore, he was undoubtedly the big brother of the new art and culture.
This also allowed him to dominate New Arts Culture.
Therefore, even though his relationship with Chu Hong was exposed, he was not worried at all.
From his perspective, in a small company like this, no matter who it was, they would have to support him. After all, he was the pillar of the company, and most of the company’s profits were created by him. Who would go against money?
‘New boss?’
The new boss would’ve had to give in to his potential and his current wealth.
Besides… he had another trump card.
