Chapter 437 - Who Would Have Known That They Would Be So Disgusting?
Chapter 437: Who Would Have Known That They Would Be So Disgusting?
Jiang Yuning and Su Jinhang recorded the second episode of <Secret of the Nation> a few days later. Perhaps because there was no longer any suppression, Su Jinhang was also in a very good state and he performed very well at the recording that day. Of course, Jiang Yuning was still the biggest highlight in the recording because of her wit and intelligence. At this time, Teacher Xiaoxiao, who was the host of the program, suddenly had his own suspicions about Jiang Yuning.
For the past few days, both Jiang Yuning and Vera had been very busy preparing for the fan benefit that Jiang Yuning wanted to give her forty million fans. They had also informed Xue Li of the lawyer consultation platform that they were planning to set up for the Ginger Candies.
What else could they expect from an idol such as Jiang Yuning?
They could only be her loyal fan for life!
“You should also take note that there will be a very famous artiste from H Country who will be attending Easygoing’s official event with you tomorrow. Pay more attention not to mess with them. It would be quite troublesome if you were to get into trouble with anyone from H Country. They are not people that you want to mess around with.”
Jiang Yuning could not stop laughing when she heard Vera’s words over the phone. “Why aren’t you asking the other party to be more careful not to offend me instead?”
“You know how I am…”
Generally, Jiang Yuning would never find fault with anyone else if they did not try to pick a fight with her in the first place.
“Rest earlier tonight. I will pick you up at ten o’clock sharp in the morning.”
“I got it,” Jiang Yuning replied before hanging up the phone. At this time, she was checking out the comments that the netizens and passers-by were posting about her love line.
She realized that there were some people who were really good at making up stories. These parties were obviously not present at the scene and they would not have known what exactly happened between Second Brother and herself and yet somehow, they could make up all sorts of stories based on their own imagination. They could even come up with all sort of explanations to fill the gap between the five years lost after the Jiang family had gone bankrupt.
Jiang Yuning felt the chills as soon as she read the comments. She felt that the netizens and passers-by were really starting to invade into her privacy. It seemed as though the netizens were this close to finding out the truth. Moreover, Jiang Yuning also realized that there were more and more supporters of the love line between Lu Jingzhi and herself every day.
At this time, Jiang Yuning suddenly picked up her laptop as she went up to the bedroom on the second floor to look for Lu Jingzhi.
“Second Brother, take a look at this. Are you sure that Secretary Ho is not behind this matter?”
Lu Jingzhi was reading a book in the bedroom. After taking the laptop in his hand, he pulled Jiang Yuning into his arms before he scrolled through the webpage on the laptop. After that, he shook his head as he replied, “No. Although the timeline is approximately the same, the details are completely different from what Secretary Ho shared on the Internet. But…what is this?”
Jiang Yuning paused for a moment before she rubbed her nose and replied, “Uh…these are the fans who are supporting the love line between both of us.”
Lu Jingzhi continued looking through the comments on the internet before he saw a comment that caught his eye.
“18R?”
Jiang Yuning was dumbfounded.
After that, Jiang Yuning quickly took the laptop in her hands before turning it off immediately. “I was wrong. I should not have shown this to you.”
Lu Jingzhi did not mind her turning off the laptop at all because he could search for it on his own.
He was a former member of the military but he was now chasing after a celebrity.
He could not lose out to Jiang Yuning’s other fans.
However, Lu Jingzhi could not stop himself from chuckling when he saw the flustered expression on Jiang Yuning’s face.
Jiang Yuning could only hug him tightly as he smiled. She was obsessed with him. Moreover, it seemed as though her Second Brother looked a little less dull nowadays. He had a better dressing sense and he was even wearing his Dior glasses as he read his book in the bedroom. He looked much younger than he did before.
“Second Brother, I will definitely believe it if anyone told me that you are twenty-five years old.”
Anyway, Lu Jingzhi probably looked so much more youthful because he was filled with love. Nourishing love.
…
The next day, the mall was surrounded with fans because the two guest artistes who were attending the Easygoing event were popular and famous artistes.
The actress from H Country was named An Shengyan and she was two years younger than Jiang Yuning. She used to be a member of a girl group and she has a very demure and sweet appearance.
Jiang Yuning arrived at the backstage of the event at nine thirty that morning.
She looked very bright and lively in her white striped A-line dress.
The weather was a little cold today.
Ten minutes later, there was suddenly a lot of noise and commotion backstage. At this time, Jiang Yuning had just finished applying her makeup and she was waiting for her turn to be interviewed. As she looked out of her dressing room, she could see the female artiste from H Country walking into the dressing room with seven or eight other people.
Vera was amazed and at a loss for words when she witnessed this scene.
“Easygoing is a local brand from H Country. Therefore, I guess it is inevitable for them to pay more attention and care to their own artiste.”
Jiang Yuning nodded her head after listening to Vera’s explanation. That was actually pretty reasonable.
After a short while, the demure and sweet looking girl from H Country stepped into the dressing room and greeted Jiang Yuning in English.
As Jiang Yuning was about to answer, An Shengyan’s agent suddenly pulled her to the side before she said, “I heard that this female artiste is only a high school graduate. I don’t think that she would be able to understand English.”
Jiang Yuning was speechless as she looked at Vera after listening to the agent’s words.
This was because the agent said this sentence to the other artiste in English before he switched to another language.
“Moreover, you are the spokesperson for this brand and she is merely the brand ambassador for Luo City. Both of you obviously have very different statuses and identities. Therefore, it is not necessary for you to greet someone with an inferior status. The environment and culture here is so bad. If not for the money that Easygoing is offering for you to attend the event, we would not even have stepped into this country at all.”
So, did the agent really think that no one would be able to understand her if she spoke in H Country’s national language here?
The expression on Vera’s face changed as soon as she heard the agent’s words.
After that, she leaned over and whispered into Jiang Yuning’s ear.
Jiang Yuning could also tell that something was going on at this time. After listening to Vera, she asked, “Didn’t you conduct a background check before accepting this endorsement?”
“Who would have known that they would be so disgusting?” Vera replied immediately. “Just try to bear with it.”
“I can tolerate it if they are only criticizing and humiliating me but I really cannot tolerate it when someone is humiliating my hometown and my country,” Jiang Yuning replied in a cold manner. “How can anyone tolerate such a vicious and b*tchy person?”
Vera had a bad hunch as soon as she heard Jiang Yuning’s words.
“Please don’t tell me that you are going to leave halfway through the event just like Lin Kaiyan did. I hope that you understand the impact and consequences of your action if you choose to leave now. There will be many foreign media outlets who are keeping an eye on the event today and this would not only cause you your own reputation, but it would also give people a bad impression of your country! You should know that H Country is really good at tearing others down.”
“Of course I wouldn’t leave just like that!” Empress Jiang was not stupid. “But…I will not bear with this humiliation and let it go so easily.”
Let’s deal with it on stage later.
…
The two artistes did not have any further interactions backstage.
At this time, the fans of the two artistes were all huddled together in front of the main stage.
When the Ginger Candies heard that Easygoing was giving preferential treatment to An Shengyan today, they felt very unhappy and distressed for Jiang Yuning.
“Do you even know how popular Empress Jiang is in Luo City? The number of fans that she has right now is almost more than the entire population of H Country. Who would have known that they actually have the guts to discriminate against Empress Jiang?”
“Our Shengyan is so young but she has already won three top actress awards. How could you compare some random artiste with our Shengyan? Besides that, Easygoing is a local brand from H Country, so it is inevitable that Easygoing would give Shengyan preferential treatment. Why are you unhappy about this? Don’t embarrass yourselves like that! Who are you to demand for better treatment for your idol?”
How could the Ginger Candies tolerate this kind of humiliation?
“Are you really that proud of your local artiste? Is she really worth that much compared to others?”
“There is no comparison when it comes to art. Please be more courteous.”
