After the Fake Young Lady Stole Everything from Me, I Became the World's Sweetheart

Chapter 24 - Twenty-Four: Invitation



Chapter 24: Chapter Twenty-Four: Invitation

"Director Mi has agreed to meet those people," Miss Ding, Yun Liu's manager, said excitedly to her artiste.

Yun Liu—who was having her makeup done—moved, and her eyebrows were ruined.

The makeup artist hurriedly apologized and took out a makeup wipe to remedy the situation.

Yun Liu glared at Miss Ding and said to the makeup artist, "You can leave now. I'll fix it myself."

After the makeup artist closed the door, Miss Ding repeated, "Director Mi has agreed to meet those people."

"They know what to do, don't they?" Yun Liu's expression turned ugly. "They won't be tempted to go with Director Mi, will they?"

"They won't," Miss Ding said hastily. "I've already shown the contract to their manager. If they breach the contract, they know how much they would have to pay."

Yun Liu snorted coldly. 'I never expected Yun Nan to have a new place to go to after leaving the Yun Corporation. I've underestimated her, and this has caused my original plan to fail.'

"Have you gotten the invitation to Mr. Mo's banquet tomorrow?"Yun Liu asked.

"Yes, I have! I got it! Oh, my star! You don't know how difficult it was! It wasn't easy to get you an invitation with the Yun family's prestige in the first place, but you insisted on getting another one. We had no choice but to get one in the name of Chairman Shi!" Miss Ding said fawningly.

Yun Liu's mood was a little complicated, and her expression was unpleasant.

Miss Ding quickly continued, "I'll secretly spread the news. When the reporters ask about your relationship with Chairman Shi, remain silent. The more you keep your silence, the more convincing this matter will be. I've asked around—Chairman Shi attends Mr. Mo's garden party every year. Our people will cooperate and take some ambiguous photos of the two of you and leak them."

Yun Liu gave a slight nod in agreement.

Seeing that her expression had lightened, Miss Ding carefully asked, "Yun Liu, have you met with Chairman Shi in private recently? You are always relying on this ambiguous relationship with him and, although it can attract traffic, it can't last long. Can you confirm your relationship with him before your new drama starts broadcasting? It's best if you can get him to announce it personally. Some people—fans of your competition—have been questioning you. If this keeps on for any longer, I'm afraid you won't be able to suppress them!"

Yun Liu's expression changed.

Miss Ding's heart skipped a beat, and she secretly cried out that this wasn't good. Other managers had their artistes well in hand, but she was the only unlucky one who had been reduced to being no more than an assistant. However, Yun Liu was her meal ticket. No matter how difficult Yun Liu was, she had to persevere!

Yun Liu did not flare up in anger. She just coldly said, "Grandpa Shi will be back soon. When he comes back, our entire family will visit him."

Miss Ding was overjoyed at the news. "That's great! Then, why don't we pick him up at the airport? What do you think?"

Yun Liu hesitated for a moment. "I don't know the exact time he would be arriving at. If I ask Shi Nian, he definitely won't tell me."

Miss Ding smiled and suggested, "I'll see if I can get the information from someone in the Shi Corporation. If you meet Chairman Shi at the Mo family's house tomorrow, take the opportunity to ask him."

Yun Liu didn't respond.

Meanwhile, Fang Xi looked at the invitation card in her hand with a puzzled expression. She asked Yun Nan, "That's strange; Mr. Mo has sent us another invitation. Is their staff so busy that they got muddle-headed and sent another?"

Yun Nan took the card and glanced at it. "It came by express delivery?"

Fang Xi nodded. "Just investigate where it came from, and we'll find out why," Yun Nan advised.

Fang Xi was enlightened. "Oh, that's right. Last time, it was Mr. Mo's public relations staff who sent it over directly. This invitation, though, arrived strangely. Could it be the Yun family's doing?"

"We'll know once we look into it." Yun Nan smiled nonchalantly.

Fang Xi just about had an answer in her heart. She smiled and asked, "What will you be wearing on that day? Do you have an outfit ready?"

"I'll leave that up to you," said Yun Nan.

Fang Xi snapped her fingers. "Then you'll have to do as I say. It's fine for others, but you can't lose to Yun Liu! I'll be sure to make her wallow in shame."

Yun Nan buried her head in her work and rolled her eyes at her friend. "You're being a little too arrogant. Why do you have to get into a petty feud?"

Fang Xi looked down at Yun Nan's manuscript and said, "I have nothing else to do, so why not."

"Be careful, you don't want to get into trouble with Mr. Mo," Yun Nan poured cold water on her.

Fang Xi stuck out her tongue. "Nah, the old man wouldn't care about such menial things."

"Well, you're welcome to try your luck," Yun Nan said indifferently. "Anyway, I won't help you if you're exposed."

"Hey, Yun Nan, where's your conscience? I'm doing this for you," Fang Xi groused with her hands on her hips.

"You ate it," Yun Nan chuckled.

Fang Xi also smiled. "Whatever. I'm going to dress you up nicely anyway. You'll blow them away. Oh, right, there's actually a rumor online saying that you're a fat and ugly but talented woman."

Yun Nan couldn't help but raise her head and stare at her best friend in an adorably perplexed manner. "Ugly and fat?"

"Yeah!" Fang Xi laughed. It's a fresh rumor."
