Chapter 88 - Chapter 88: Chapter Eighty-Eight: Rescue (2/2)

Yun Nan paused for thought before answering, “I am indeed the Yun family’s biological daughter. I went missing when I was a kid and was already an adult capable of living independently when I returned to them. Therefore, the Yun family and I are blood-related, but my work and career have nothing to do with them. As for those who say I’d betrayed my previous company and defected, I’ll make every effort to hold them accountable for their slander. All I’m saying is, you may accuse me of incapability, but you can’t slander me like this.” Yun Nan didn’t show the Yun family in a negative light—she admits she couldn’t bring herself to distort the truth like Yun Liu.

Fang Xi came out with some staff to pick Yun Nan up. Seeing the flock of reporters surrounding Yun Nan, she smiled and remarked, “Hey, are you holding a press conference here of all places? Yun Nan, this won’t do! No matter how the media pictures us—positive or negative—we still have to treat them with courtesy. We would seem petty otherwise. Isn’t that right, guys?”

Fang Xi had always been media savvy. Her arrival greatly reduced Yun Nan’s pressure. She livened up the crowd’s atmosphere with just a few sentences and led them elsewhere, allowing Yun Nan to extricate herself.

However, the media reporters failed to get any information from Fang Xi. Fang Xi’s oratory and deflection skills were much better compared to Yun Nan’s. Not only were they unable to get any information, but Fang Xi also gave them backhanded compliments in a way they couldn’t find fault with.

Miss Ding gritted her teeth as she watched the live broadcast. “This Fang Xi is so annoying!” Likewise, Yun Liu didn’t expect the scheme she had planned so well to be this easily resolved by them.

“Miss Ding, get someone to write about what happened today! Make sure it’s unflattering. We can’t let the public believe and side with them. Go all out and vilify her!” Yun Liu lightly uttered those vicious words, and Miss Ding nodded vigorously.

“Find out who the substitute lead actress is immediately and get rid of her with the same method we used last time! I can’t let Yun Nan film this movie! Miss Ding, spread the word that there’s no future in being her lead actress!” Yun Liu stated with a smile as she thought, ‘Yun Nan, you naive woman. Since the hardships oflife haven’t taught you to be obedient, I’ll give you a revision and make sure the lesson sticks!

However, Yun Liu had counted her chickens before they hatched. Yun Nan and Fang Xi reacted quickly, and the production team of ‘4:30 P.M.’ walled off all outsiders amid the Internet’s rampant discussions. All their whereabouts were kept confidential, and they didn’t accept any form of interview. The people Miss Ding sent were rebuffed and resentfully returned.

Yun Liu frowned at the news, and Miss Ding hurriedly reassured her, “It’s not a big deal. I think it’s a good thing they isolated themselves. I would be slightly worried if they took advantage of their current popularity and stirred up some hype. After all, negative publicity is still publicity. I didn’t expect them to be so pathetic that they wouldn’t even know how to use such a good opportunity. Don’t worry, Yun Liu. Getting rid of them will be a piece of cake, so let’s take things slow.”

“I want Yun Nan’s movie to fail!” Yun Liu firmly declared. “Even if she managed to complete the filming, I don’t want that movie to make it to the screens! In short, I want her to lose everything!”

“Don’t worry! She will!” Miss Ding uttered confidently..
