Chapter 173 The One Who Should Leave (2)

Feng Huai also thought like this when he first heard this. Earlier, the elevator of the hotel had to undergo a maintenance repair when he came back after buying their drinks. They told him that it would at least take 15 minutes for them to finish. Not wanting to let their drinks lose their cold and freshness, Feng Huai took it upon himself to use the emergency stairs to their hotel room.

But who knew that when he reached the third floor, he would hear somebody talking alone in that cramp and lonely place. He quickly recognized the voice of Gu Jiao's manager, Albert, and he couldn't help but listen to it especially when he heard Ran Xueyi's name from his lips.

Later, after Albert left, Feng Huai ran back to their hotel and told Zhao Fei and Ran Xueyi about what he heard.

Ran Xueyi glanced at the two people talking in front of her. Her appetite was gone and her eyes sank completely.

Director Zheng, Gu Jiao, and Producer Luo banded together to bring her down ruthlessly. They would make up lies and paint themselves as victims, taking consideration of the current situation where the fans are currently siding with them.

With their united statements and accusations, whether their words were true or not, people will still believe their words over her own.

They even planned to do a press conference to address this issue ahead of time.

That only means they found a way to get out of this situation.

With a tense expression, Ran Xueyi walked out directly.

Zhao Fei and Feng Huai saw her walk out and looked at each other before they quickly followed after her.

...

Inside Producer Luo's room.

Sitting comfortably in the cushion of the sofa inside the mini living room, Gu Jiao was looking down at the white paper she was holding in her hand.

Director Zheng glanced at her for a second before moving his gaze to say, "Luo Huan, I'm surprised you are willing to go through the press conference with us. I thought you wouldn't want to join us."

Producer Luo had a stern look on his face, but a rare helplessness flashed in his eyes. He replied, "Since I already made up my choice, I should naturally go through it until the end. Don't question me again, Director Zheng."

Director Zheng scoffed, "What are you saying? It's not as if you can't resign and let us do this by ourselves... Oh, wait... you can't do that since you might get blacklisted by President Tzongshi if you did that."

"Don't worry, Producer Luo. Just think about the money we will receive from President Tzongshi." Scriptwriter Chun stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, "In addition, didn't he promise us that he will give us what we wanted during the Golden Leaf award?"

Producer Luo also knew this and did not know what to say. President Tzongshi, who was the man supporting Gu Jiao, really said this to them earlier. For as long as they would accuse Ran Xueyi of defamation and threaten them with edited photos and kick her out of the play, they don't have to worry about anything else.

Additionally, President Tzongshi mentioned that he would fabricate the evidence against Ran Xueyi. What they needed to do was act and pretend as victims instead.

Scriptwriter Chun saw that Producer Luo was calming down and was about to say something when they heard a commotion, and in the next second, the door was kicked open from outside.

The loud sound shocked everyone and before anyone inside the room could react, Ran Xueyi had already stepped into the room.

Ran Xueyi's complexion was naturally pale, but at this moment, it was even whiter under the warm lights of the room, and the coldness in her eyes became more obvious.

"What are you doing? Trespassing inside another person's room without permission, Ran Xueyi, aren't you being too unruly right now?" Director Zheng's courage was too big after getting somebody's help.

Ran Xueyi raised her eyebrow and coldly asked, "When you changed the script and deleted my scenes, did you even ask for my permission? Did you get your wife's permission to cheat as well?"

"You!" Director Zheng pointed his finger at her. "So it was really you!"

Ran Xueyi did not care if they knew that she was the one who spread it since sooner or later, they would know about it anyway. However, she couldn't forgive them for what they were about to do. Rather than repenting, they would rather fight against her to death.

In truth, she wanted to give them one last chance to regret their actions and settle things privately, but they chose to publicize it in hopes of destroying her completely.

How could Ran Xueyi allow them to act recklessly like this towards her?

Gu Jiao stared at Ran Xueyi. This should have been the second time she met Ran Xueyi. The first time, she met her at the airport and at that time, she was already feeling self-conscious and lost her confidence when standing beside the masked Ran Xueyi.

However, right at this moment, that same inferior and suppressed feeling was coming back to her. It irritated her even more when she saw Ran Xueyi's peerless face and seductive body.

Gu Jiao stepped forward with an insincere smile, "Miss Ran, you don't have to come here to say all these words to us. Either just accept the new script or resign. Then, maybe I will be more forgiving and forget what you did."

"Ah, you have to post an apology on your Weibo page too. Tell everyone that the photo was spread by you because you wanted people's attention and to promote yourself in public."

Director Zheng stared at Gu Jiao, surprised that she would be willing to forgive Ran Xueyi. However, he doesn't want this to happen. Ran Xueyi already admitted that she was the one who spread their photos, almost destroying him if not for Gu Jiao's help. Why should he let Ran Xueyi go unscathed?

"There's no need to forgive her, just resign and get out of here!" Director Zheng angrily shouted.

Zhao Fei and Feng Huai almost died out of anger at this situation. Why are they so outrageous and unashamed?

Ran Xueyi was also thinking of this and was about to retort when another person's voice fell.

A low and deep voice resonated inside the room. It was filled with danger and unconcealed anger, "The one who should resign and get out should be you, Zheng Hua."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone turned to look at the door one after another, and the expressions on their faces changed—

Song Yu Han stood at the entrance of the room, his eyes were extraordinarily dark and full of danger.
