Chapter 172: Chapter 107 Deleted
It was widely known that Lin Man and Shu Wan had a bad relationship, so when people saw the video of Shu Wan striking Lin Man’s neck with her hand, the vast majority felt that Shu Wan was seizing the opportunity for revenge.
“…Shu Wan is quite sothing, always managing to ruin her own reputation just when it starts to improve a bit.”
“That was way too hard, I can feel Lin Man’s pain. She must have been drunk and unconscious, right? Shu Wan taking advantage of soone vulnerable like that is a bit too much. If I were a fan of Lin Man, I could tear Shu Wan apart right now.”
“It looks painful. What grudges do they have to be so heavy-handed? It’s ridiculous.”
Their known poor relationship seed to have taken root in people’s hearts, so much so that even Wang Tian believed that Shu Wan had secretly hit Lin Man.
“I’m telling you, sweetheart, hitting people is one thing, but doing it sneakily is not okay. Now you’ve done it too blatantly, and you’ve got everyone outside up in arms.”
“I didn’t hit her,” Shu Wan responded calmly. “Lin Man will co out and clarify. What are you worried about?”
“You’re counting on Lin Man to clear things up for you?” Wang Tian was stunned. “Lin Man would rather see you out of the entertainnt circle right now so she can bask in the popularity all by herself.”
“Aren’t we supposed to be shooting for the magazine? When is that happening?” Shu Wan didn’t continue the discussion about Lin Man and switched topics instead.
“Tomorrow night,” Wang Tian’s attention was indeed diverted. “The photographer from the magazine wants to et you in advance to see how to proceed with the shoot.”
“Mm, got it. I’m hanging up if there’s nothing else.”
After finishing, Shu Wan hung up before Wang Tian could react.
Hearing the beep from the phone, Wang Tian was flabbergasted. Hey, they hadn’t figured out how to resolve the situation with Lin Man yet, why did she hang up?
Wang Tian turned off his phone and subconsciously took a few steps forward, then suddenly rembered. Hey, that’s not right. He was the agent; why was he subconsciously looking to Shu Wan to solve everything now?
Wang Tian thought back and realized that lately, he had been feeling quite comfortable in his role as an agent. No matter what happened, it seed that Shu Wan always managed to solve the issues without a hitch.
A bit of sha mixed with pleasure washed over him.
Now that Shu Wan had said Lin Man would co out and clarify, Wang Tian simply relaxed and chose to trust Shu Wan.
Past experience told him, trust Shu Wan, and you’ll have a feast.
However, at this mont, Lin Man had just sobered up from her drunken stupor and had no idea what had happened.
When she reached the film set, she complained to the others as usual about Shu Wan’s poor tolerance for alcohol.
“Shu Wan’s alcohol tolerance is just terrible. I told you she couldn’t handle it. Newcors in the entertainnt circle really lack seasoning, it’s just pathetic.”
The others exchanged glances upon hearing Lin Man’s complaints and then began to speak freely about Shu Wan, “She’s just pretending. She was waiting for you to get drunk so she could hit you.”
“What??” Lin Man was suddenly baffled. “Hit ?”
“Yeah, you probably don’t rember because you were drunk,” the others said as they pulled up the trending video for Lin Man to see.
Lin Man watched it for a while, but couldn’t recall anything.
“Shu Wan has always harbored resentnt against you, and she did this while you were drunk. That’s really too much.”
“Indeed, soone who looks so nice on the outside but is so malicious on the inside, it’s sim–”
“What can a single video prove?” Contrary to everyone’s expectations, Lin Man beca angry rather than pleased when she heard the others insulting Shu Wan. “It’s all nonsense written by unscrupulous dia.”
“No way, soone like Shu Wan, even if the unethical dia didn’t write nonsense, she’s no saint. How could such a person beco the high school examination top scorer? Who knows if she cheated or not.”
“Then you try taking the test, and if you think she cheated, you go cheat,” Lin Man looked rather displeased.
Everyone had thought that speaking ill of Shu Wan would get Lin Man’s approval, but to their surprise, she wasn’t playing by the usual rules, leaving them at a loss for what to say.
At this mont, Shu Wan had also arrived at the set, and upon seeing her enter the dressing room, Lin Man followed her in.
Once inside the dressing room, Lin Man closed the door, coughed lightly, and lifted her chin at Shu Wan, “Hey, aren’t you going to apologize to ?”
“Apologize for what?” Shu Wan was changing, her slender fingers gliding over the embroidered buttons, the light shimring on her polished nails, drawing Lin Man’s gaze again and again.
“You hit , shouldn’t you apologize?” Lin Man’s gaze followed Shu Wan’s hands, finally unable to resist stepping closer, “Where did you get your nails done? They look so good.”
“I did them myself,” Shu Wan replied.
“Then do mine too, and I’ll forgive you for hitting . I’m being quite nice to you, right?”
After Lin Man finished speaking, Shu Wan didn’t respond, continuing to change her clothes.
“Hey.” Lin Man reached out and poked Shu Wan’s arm, “Well, is that a deal?”
“No,” Shu Wan refused, “According to the news out there, we’re supposed to be enemies.”
“….”
Lin Man left the dressing room, looking unhappy, approached her manager and complained, “Shu Wan is too much. I’m not even holding it against her that she hit , and she’s still so an to .”
The manager had an indescribable expression, “When did she hit you?”
“Last night, ah,” Lin Man had always felt that Shu Wan found her annoying, so she had no doubts about what everyone was saying, “You were right next to at the ti, you should have stopped her.”
“My goodness.” Speaking of this, the manager was truly aggrieved, “But I’d need to be able to stop it. You don’t understand, you were clinging to Shu Wan like glue, I couldn’t even pull you off if I tried.”
Lin Man was puzzled, “? Clinging to Shu Wan?”
Fortunately, the manager knew Lin Man’s character well, knowing she would never admit it once sober, so he had recorded a video the night before.
He handed his phone to Lin Man, “Here, see for yourself.”
Lin Man took the phone and as she watched, her facial expressions beca more and more animated.
After a long while, Lin Man looked at the manager with a complex expression, “Is that ? I wasn’t possessed, was I?”
She couldn’t believe that the person who kept hugging Shu Wan and acting spoiled was her.
“Yes, that’s right,” the manager nodded, “The embarrassing one is you.”
“Ahhhh!” Lin Man was close to breaking down, “Quickly delete this video, never let it get out in this lifeti!! Now, right now!!”
The manager nodded, “Deleting it is possible, but the whole internet is saying that Shu Wan hit you. This video is the only evidence that could prove her innocence, are you sure you want to delete it?”
“Of course, delete it!! There’s no way I’m letting such an embarrassing video spread, it would damage my image too much.”
“Alright then.” Since Lin Man said so, the manager didn’t say anything further and promptly pressed delete.
