“My face!” Zhao Tian rolled on the ground in pain as he covered his face and wailed. Blood flowed from his hand as he shouted, “What are you guys looking at? Hurry up and find a doctor for me. My face can’t be disfigured!”

Zhou Jie was about to make an emergency call when a voice suddenly interrupted him. “No one is allowed to call a doctor for him today.”

After everyone looked at the source of the voice, they saw Shi Xiao walking slowly into the set with a cold and displeased expression.

Li Ci followed Shi Xiao in, but he only glanced at Zhao Tian and didn’t help him.

When Zhao Tian saw Li Ci, he didn’t dare to shout anymore and shut up.

Zhao Tian’s family was poor. After Li Ci took a fancy to him because of his looks, Li Ci said that he could give him everything he wanted and even made him more and more famous in the entertainment industry, but Zhao Tian had to be obedient.

In the temptation of wealth, Zhao Tian agreed without hesitation.

Although Zhao Tian agreed, he was still blinded by money and betrayed Li Ci. However, he was taught a lesson by Li Ci that time and no longer dared to go against him.

He thought that he was already powerful enough to dominate the entertainment industry, but it was only at this moment that he understood that no matter how successful he was, he was just a plaything in the hands of those big shots and was at their mercy.

Li Ci looked at Zhao Tian’s bleeding side profile as he instructed Zhou Jie, “Find a first-aid kit for him and bandage him. Don’t let him faint here after losing too much blood and cause trouble for others.”

Zhou Jie went to look for the first aid kit in a panic.

From Li Ci’s expression, Wei Ci knew that they already knew what had happened today and had arranged things beforehand.

She couldn’t help but ask, “What exactly happened? How did President Yuan know that there was something wrong with Zhao Tian?”

Yuan Shu explained, “When you said that you wanted to choose Zhao Tian as the spokesperson, 1 investigated him. Zhao Tian’s reputation in the industry isn’t very good, and the celebrities he dated were all people with bad reputations, so 1 felt that there was something wrong with this person. Later on, 1 found out that he owed a huge debt because of gambling and was being chased by loan sharks. However, a year ago, a sum of money suddenly appeared in his account and helped him pay off all the loan sharks. From then on, he lived an even more carefree lifestyle and was very extravagant. Three days ago, an unknown sum of money was transferred to his account. Thus, 1 guessed that he had already been bribed.”

Then, there was that call in the morning.

Yuan Shu had never taken the initiative to look for Li Ci, so when Li Ci received Yuan Shu’s call this morning and asked him for a favor, he agreed without hesitation.

Moreover, Li Ci followed the train of thought given by Yuan Shu and investigated the people Zhao Tian had come into contact with recently. As expected, she found a familiar person—Tan Jing.

Therefore, it wasn’t difficult for them to guess that Tan Jing was behind today’s incident.

Zhao Tian’s management company was in Li Ci’s hands, and Li Ci had planted spies in Yun Duan Software Company, so it wasn’t difficult for him to sign a new contract for Zhao Tian.

Li Ci got the management company to sign a contract with Tan Jing’s public relations department in Zhao Tian’s name. Therefore, this live broadcast wasn’t an endorsement for the Shi Corporation at all, but for Yun Duan Software Company.

However, everyone was kept in the dark about this matter, so it was impossible for Zhao Tian to know the truth. In addition, he was too arrogant and didn’t check carefully, so he didn’t discover it.

This was also the reason why Zhao Tian was so arrogant but Yuan Shu didn’t stop him and cooperated with him, making him even more smug. She only wanted him to suffer the consequences of his own actions.

As for Shi Xiao, Yuan Shu informed him immediately. Hence, Shi Xiao helped Yuan Shu find a venue. This was also the reason why the location was changed at the last minute.

As for the live broadcast arranged by the Shi Corporation, because it was at the last moment, Yuan Shu couldn’t find any other celebrities to replace him and could only find Shi Lu.

However, Shi Lu also had a scene to film today and couldn’t leave, so Yuan Shu thought of Zhang Zhang.

Zhang Zhang agreed without hesitation and rushed to the scene. After putting on makeup and communicating with staff about the script, she even started half an hour earlier than the broadcast time..
