Duoduo sneered coldly. âI donât think you truly admire us. Itâs because we are with Lin Yan, right? Miss Lin, you may seem as though you care for your sister very much, but behind her back, you have done all sorts of repulsive and despicable things. Do your fans know who you really are?â
Lin Shuya narrowed her eyes and replied in confusion, âI donât quite understand you, Miss Qian. Did my sister say something to the two of you? It seems as though there has been a misunderstanding...â
Exasperation and anger bubbled in Duoduoâs stomach. Lin Shuya was deliberately putting on an act right now by pretending she didnât understand.
Zhao Hongling cast a meaningful look at Duoduo and replied calmly, âSorry, please ignore Duoduoâs remarks. Miss Lin, thank you for your kind offer, but we donât have any plans of jumping ship to another company. Sorry.â
She had been betrayed by the artist she had groomed personally. Then, she had been sacked by the company she had slogged her life away for. Lin Yan was the one who had helped her and had brought her and Duoduo to Summit Entertainment.
How could she betray Lin Yan to go to Lin Shuyaâs company?
Duoduo shared the same sentiment as Zhao Hongling. She had misunderstood Lin Yan initially and had always treated her meanly. However, after some time, she had realized that Lin Yan was very different from the rumors.
On the contrary, Lin Shuya was the one who was truly scheming and sly.
Lin Shuya had successfully won over Lin Yanâs father, Han Yixuan, and her previous assistant. She hadnât expected that Zhao Hongling and Duoduo would put a stop to her plans.
After both of them departed, Lin Shuyaâs manager scoffed coldly. âShuya, ignore them! They are fools who cannot discern good from bad. Lin Yan must have brainwashed them!â
Lin Shuya looked regretful and sorrowful. âItâs a pity that Manager Zhaoâs talent is being buried.â
Her manager replied in a contemptuous tone. âI donât think Zhao Hongling is as good as she is supposed to be. Does she really think that Summit Entertainment will allow Lin Yan to stay with them? She has to be dreaming!â
...
It wasnât convenient for Lin Yan to reveal her address, so she had borrowed Zhao Honglingâs address.
When she went to the company in the morning, Duoduo passed an envelope to her.
Duoduo had just returned from the cafe and was trying her best to act normal. âSister Yan, you have a letter.â
âOkay, thank you.â
Lin Yan tore the envelope and pulled out an invitation to the charity event from Head Secretary Liu.
Unlike other lavish, extravagant party invitations, the charity eventâs invitation was made from recycled paper. It was simple and down-to-earth.
However, this VIP invitation was different from the one Sister Ling had gotten her.
The normal invitation was light gray in color, while the VIP invitation was pale gold. The seats were near the stage as well.
Those seats were reserved exclusively for VIPs and government officials.
Duoduo, who was lost in thought, didnât notice the invitation in Lin Yanâs hands. She hesitated for some time before she asked, âSister Yan, have you heard the rumors going around the company?â
âRumors? What rumors?â Lin Yan blinked in confusion.
Duoduo looked grave. âThere is a rumor... that the company is going to terminate your contract...â
Lin Yan was taken aback before she asked incredulously, âWhat? The company wants to terminate my contract?â
