The assistant had long been by Ming Wenxianâs side and was well aware of her demeanor.
Her arrogance, driven by a powerful backer, left her indifferent to other celebrities.
However, even the assistant was unclear about who exactly stood behind Ming Wenxian, enabling her audacity.
This wasnât a topic the assistant would broach; being in Ming Wenxianâs favor and receiving a salary was enough.
âYet, Sister Ming, Xie Yuâs fans are numerous and fervently young,â the assistant hesitated. âMany are eagerly awaiting his debut in the center spot. Stirring trouble with him now could incite their madness.â
âWhatâs there to worry about? Itâs not like weâre going to ruin him,â Ming Wenxian scoffed dismissively. âBesides, his debut means he needs resources to climb higher, right? Iâll provide those. He wouldnât dare refuse.â âAnd who would know itâs my doing? Letâs see if Xie Yu dares to speak out.â Unless he truly wished to court death.
Hearing this, the assistant didnât dare persuade further. âThen, Sister Ming, rest well. Iâll go scout the program team tomorrow.â
Ming Wenxian waved her hand dismissively and headed to the bathroom.
Meanwhile, in a city thousands of kilometers from Lin City, an old man was reading in his study.
âMaster,â a guard appeared silently before him, kneeling on one knee. âThe young miss has sent another name for your review.â
âHmm?â The old man set aside the fitness ball he was toying with in his left hand. âBring it here.â
The guard handed over a paper bearing the name Xie Yu.
âXie Yu, surname Xieâ¦â old Master Ming frowned. âFrom the Xie family of Sijiu
The city was home to many prominent and wealthy families, with the Yu ramuy at tne top, an unquestionamy ente nousenola.
The Xie family was related by marriage to the Ji family, akin in status to the Shen family, and also an elite household.
âNo,â the guard hurriedly corrected. âThe young miss mentioned heâs from the entertainment industry, an undebuted trainee, likely unrelated to the Xie family.â
âI see,â old Master Ming nodded. âStill, letâs check with the Xie family. Itâs not impossible for their distant branches to dabble in entertainment.â
Understanding, the guard immediately contacted the Xie household. By this hour, the Xie family was at rest, with their butler answering the call.
âXie Yu?â The butler was half puzzled, half wary. âSorry, no such person in the Xie family, not even in the distant branches.â
The guard relayed this to Master Ming.
âNot a Xie, then. Thatâs good,â Master Ming stroked his beard. âWhatever Wenxian needs, weâll send to her together later.â
âHowever, due to frequent outbreaks of evolved being incidents, the
Supernatural Management Bureau has been strict lately. Evolved beings above
Class D cannot be mobilized freely. Send ten of Class E.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even Class E beings could easily deal with ordinary people.
The Ming family had such strength.
The guard acknowledged, âIâll dispatch them immediately.â
âSigh, Wenxian is just an ordinary person. Having waited so long without any genetic mutation, sheâs certainly not an evolved being,â old Master Ming sighed deeply. âItâs my fault. I can only compensate her in this way. Whatever she needs in the entertainment industry, weâll provide.â
To old Master Ming, the entertainment industry was but a gathering of actors.
Glamorous on the surface, its hidden filth was boundless.
As long as no major figures were offended, Master Ming would support whatever Wenxian did.
The guard hesitated, âBut, Master, the young missâs reputation in the industry is not good. They say sheâ¦â
Old Master Mingâs gaze turned icy: âWhat are they saying?â
The guard steeled himself to continue, âThey say her morals are loose, that sheâs intimate with anyone she meets, supported by a wealthy patronâ¦â
âBang!â
Old Master Mings palm slammed onto the desk, instantly shattering it.
The guard knelt with a thud, trembling.
The words online were harsher, and he hadnât dared report them.
âLet them talk. Will their words cost Wenxian a single hair?â Old Master Mingâs expression was dark. âWenxian remains a figure they look up to! I want to see how these actor netizens dare to touch her!â
Ming Wenxian had once crippled a minor internet celebrity.
Old Master Ming casually settled it with money, giving it no further thought.
The distance between ordinary people and evolved beings was vast, not of the same world.
The Ming familyâs main line had always been evolved beings. Unfortunately, Wenxianâs generation lacked this inheritance..
