Chapter 1601: Acting Pitiful
Everything was set in stone before Manli’s agency could even interfere.
Driving while drunk, hitting someone, and trying to use money to settle things made her be labeled as an inferior artiste.
Overnight, Manli’s reputation was ruined.
Tan Tian and the Xiao family had just dealt with the matter of the male lead. They were completely dumbfounded.
They had already replaced the male lead. What about the female lead?
Would people still want to watch the show after reshooting it so many times?
Tan Tian and the Xiao family were helpless now.
Xiao Xi only smiled silently when she heard this.
Although bad things had been happening to the Xiao family, she still could not recover from the harm she had suffered. Even so, witnessing karma take action was still enough to appease her depressed mood.
After recovering from her injuries, she returned to work. She no longer had to be afraid of the Xiao family’s persecution, nor did she have to live in anxiety. The feeling of being able to walk freely was like being reborn.
Wu Jiaheng’s new drama had also wrapped up. According to his plan, he would go on a short break after finishing the filming.
He called Xiao Xi. “I’m accompanying Lil’ Hua to the amusement park this weekend. Do you want to come along?”
“Sure.” Hearing that Lil’ Hua would be joining them, Xiao Xi agreed.
On the weekend, she went downstairs with a children’s lunchbox that she had made for Lil’ Hua. When she opened the car door, she realized that Wu Jiaheng was alone.
“Where’s Lil’ Hua?”
“My mother accompanied her to play with the children next door.” Wu Jiaheng smiled. “Get in the car. Let’s hang out together, okay?”
Xiao Xi lowered her head, thought for a moment, then smiled. “Okay.”
…
At Summer Television Film Festival.
Tan Tian was still trying his best to promote A Tale of the Qin Dynasty. He looked forward to getting a good price for the broadcasting rights like before.
At the mention of Li Junyu and Jiang Manli, he pointed out that it was a trap set up by people in the industry. “I can’t say that those two people didn’t make mistakes, but I also know that I’ve offended some people in this industry, especially those who have top-notch big shots behind them. This is indeed something ordinary people like us can’t compete with.
“In short, I hope that our industry will be relatively fair. Everyone, let’s use a fair method to compete with each other.”
The people he was talking about were obviously Su Bei and Lu Heting.
This was also a common practice among some people.
Especially when they pretended to be pitiful, claiming that they were being suppressed by power. They would always receive a lot of sympathy. It was also one of many people’s favorite methods.
Tan Tian tried to make himself seem vulnerable to achieve his goal.
Unfortunately, the crowd had sharp eyes.
Before Su Bei could respond in person, everyone replied on her behalf: [May I ask if Su Bei asked Li Junyu to fake his theses? Isn’t he a top student? During an interview, he said that no matter how busy he is, he has to spend two to three hours reading every day. Is it difficult for him to write his own thesis? Did Su Bei ask him to pay for a thesis and even plagiarize it?]
[Previous poster, you’re right. May I ask what Su Bei did for Tan Tian to say that? Even if Su Bei really reported Li Junyu, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it! On the contrary, I won’t agree if she knew about it and didn’t report Li Junyu!]
[Yes, I won’t judge Li Junyu’s behavior, but what about Manli’s drunk driving? Did Su Bei force her to drive while drunk?]
[Tan Tian is too shameless. Previously, I already disliked him for being friends with Xiao Ming. Birds of a feather flock together. He’s really not a good person.]
[That’s right. Do Mr. Lu and Su Bei have to support Li Junyu and Manli? Are they letting you down if they don’t do that?]
These words were exactly what Su Bei wanted to say. However, seeing that everyone was speaking up for her, she just took screenshots and posted them on Weibo in response.
In the end, she added: [Do you really think the person behind me wants to suppress you? If he’s truly taking action against you, do you think you’ll still be able to talk nonsense like this? The person behind me can’t be bothered with you!]
Her words showed how domineering she and Lu Heting were.
Her fans reposted her post crazily: [Our Su Bei is the best. She hit the nail on the head!]
[Tan Tian brought this upon itself! Everything Tan Tian and the Xiao family are facing now is normal!]
[If Mr. Lu wants to make a move on you, you won’t be able to jump around like a monkey! You’d better think about whether your TV show can even be broadcasted now!]
The Xiao family’s share price fell to the limit again until their company was delisted.
It didn’t take long for the huge Xiao family to recover from Xiao Ming’s sexual assault.
It was said that even if a centipede died, it would not die. However, when a family was really on the path to death, the speed at which they collapsed would be far faster than one could imagine.
…
In the hospital.
Lin Xiruo had seen the recent news and was a little worried for Su Bei.
Seeing that she was peeling fruits by her bedside, she couldn’t help but ask, “Su Bei, you haven’t had any work recently. Are you affected by these things?”
Su Bei looked up and handed the cut apples to her mother. She smiled and said, “No, I haven’t gotten a suitable script recently, so I didn’t accept any. If I had gotten one, I would’ve joined the cast long ago.”
“I see, that’s good. When we saw the news about Tan Tian, your father had the intention of wielding a knife and going over to see him. It was me who advised him not to lower himself to the level of such a person before he calmed down.” Lin Xiruo smiled.
Su Bei pursed her lips and smiled. “Why is he so similar to Heting?”
Lin Xiruo thought of Lu Heting holding a knife and smiled.
“What are you talking about? Why are you guys so happy?” He Jiang carried the soup in and saw the mother and daughter happily talking.
He was dressed in casual clothes, but it was still difficult to hide his elegant bearing. He was willing to do even the smallest tasks for his wife, which included carrying soup over.
Lin Xiruo smiled and said, “I was wondering why you weren’t here yet.”
“I’m here now.” He walked to Lin Xiruo’s side and said gently.
Su Bei looked at her parents enviously. After so many years of marriage, their relationship was still so good. This was the life she yearned for.
When Lin Xiruo drank the soup, she insisted that Su Bei drink it too.
Speaking of which, ever since Su Bei came here, she had been drinking all kinds of soup and eating all kinds of nutritional supplements with Lin Xiruo. She felt that her waistline had grown a size.
However, her parents still thought that she was too thin.
They feared her going hungry.
Su Bei ate a lot each time she came here. He Jiang and Lin Xiruo couldn’t wait to put more food in her bowl.
