A Pair of Evil Women's Love - Chapter 51
Chapter 51: [VIP]
A roar came from the office, startling Sini, who was holding a cup of coffee.
Lu Jing’s manager, Chen Mian, slammed his hand on the table.
Fu Haitang smiled apologetically. “Mr. Lu, we were in the wrong here. We’ve already had the publicity department draft a statement, and it will be released for clarification immediately.”
Sini handed over the coffee. “Teacher Lu, please have a cup of coffee. Take it easy and calm down…”
“Calm down! What is there to calm down about!” Chen Mian overturned the coffee. “Now you want to release a statement? What were you all doing last night? The public opinion has already fermented. Do you know that Lu Jing has had zero scandals for so many years!”
Fu Haitang turned her head, coughed to cover her mouth, and glanced at her phone screen. Lu Jing was so famous that he was a target. Even if he had no scandals, they would come looking for him. Zero scandals? What a joke!
“What’s that look on your face?” Chen Mian was so angry he formed a fist with his pinky finger pointing out and started cursing Fu Haitang. “Did you just roll your eyes at me? Did you just roll your eyes at me?”
Fu Haitang: “…”
“No, no, no,” Sini was terrified and quickly went to block Chen Mian. “You saw it wrong, you saw it wrong. Mr. Lu, Teacher Lu, our Director Fu has a ‘three whites’ dead-fish-eye! Don’t mind her!”
Fu Haitang: “…”
“Apologize, now!” Sini gritted her teeth and winked at Fu Haitang.
Fu Haitang’s fawning skills were top-notch. She immediately showed a perfect smile and started to soothe Chen Mian. “Don’t worry, the company will take full responsibility for the subsequent clarification…”
“Take responsibility? With what?” Chen Mian laughed in anger. “With you? Do you think I don’t know what you’re like? Fu Haitang, you are known in your TV station for your newfangled plans. You’re a pro at creating conflict for clicks. Everyone knows it inside and out!”
“You’re deliberately using our Lu Jing to create a buzz for your show! We’re all foxes who’ve been around for a while. Do you think I can’t see through you? Just you wait, you’re done for!”
The office door was slammed shut.
Sini wiped the coffee stains from her forehead.
Fu Haitang closed her eyes and kneaded her eyebrows to relieve her anger.
After a moment, Fu Haitang opened her eyes. “Let’s go. We’re going to see Lu Jing.”
“Is he back?” Sini asked.
“I contacted the station this morning. I’ve arranged for people to clear the area. When Lu Jing gets out of the car, no fans will rush him.” Fu Haitang picked up her phone. “Let’s go.”
A heat cycle episode for Lu Jing could be interpreted as a dating rumor, but on a larger scale, if an Alpha caused an Omega to go into heat, it would be a public offense. In severe cases, he could go to jail.
The fans’ excitement was understandable. They wanted to go to the TV station and tear the person who leaked the news to shreds!
The security guards blocked all the fans who had come to the door. Sini and Fu Haitang waited in the lobby on the first floor for more than half an hour, but Lu Jing’s car still hadn’t arrived.
Sini whispered, “If we cooperate well, will Lu Jing not hold us accountable?”
Lu Jing’s chauffeured van arrived. Chen Mian came down from upstairs to meet Lu Jing. When he saw Fu Haitang, he immediately sped up to catch her. “Fu Haitang, what are you doing here? Dreaming about apologizing… no way…”
“Teacher Lu!” Fu Haitang didn’t answer. She just elbowed Chen Mian aside and, with her high heels, walked toward Lu Jing’s car.
“Wait—” Sini looked at Fu Haitang rushing out of the lobby, her eyes wide. “Haitang, there are reporters outside. What are you doing!”
Chen Mian, with his pinky finger sticking out, stomped his feet. “You people at A Station are completely lawless!”
…
The car stopped at the stairs of the TV station. The van door slid open, and the assistant got out first. Then Lu Jing stepped out. Just as he took one step, he was suddenly grabbed by the arm by the reckless Fu Haitang.
It was a half-embrace!
Assistant: “…”
The assistant gasped. “An Omega!”
Lu Jing shook Fu Haitang off. “What are you doing?”
Outside the TV station, there were hundreds of fans waiting, as well as reporters who had come to get the latest gossip. Fu Haitang was wearing makeup today and was dressed in a gentle and sophisticated style. Her black, seaweed-like hair made her look even more beautiful!
Standing next to Lu Jing, their looks and heights were equally matched!
After a brief moment of silence, the fans started screaming.
Reporters and paparazzi were snapping photos and recording videos.
Fu Haitang was pushed away by Lu Jing. She stood her ground in her high heels and smoothed her hair. Then, she crossed her hands in front of her and gave Lu Jing a smile.
Lu Jing: “…”
Assistant: “…”
The security guards surrounded them, escorting Lu Jing into the building before the fans could rush them.
“Oh, oh, oh! You, you, you!” Chen Mian ran over. “Fu Haitang, what are you pretending for? Who are you smiling at? Go on, roll your eyes again if you dare!”
“You’re not happy when I do,” Fu Haitang said with a smile, quickly catching up to Lu Jing. When she reached the revolving door, Fu Haitang turned to the side and glanced back.
Fans broke through the barrier and ran toward them. The security guards were busy trying to maintain order. Reporters, with their cameras, passed over dozens of people, furiously zooming in and taking pictures.
Fu Haitang smiled, then looked away and entered the lobby. She took the elevator back to the 23rd floor.
Chen Mian, seeing that a storm was brewing, almost fainted. He took two minutes to recover.
…
The trending topic stayed up all day.
#Lu Jing suspected of being in a relationship with a TV staff member.
Top comments:
-
- She’s so eager to be public. She’s in such a hurry to announce it.
-
- She’s pretty, but her actions are ugly. I don’t believe Lu Jing is still a virgin at 26, but this girl’s tactics are truly shameful. She doesn’t care about the fans’ feelings at all!
-
- Did you see those photos? That moment on the stairs at the TV station entrance when that beautiful girl looked back. Holy crap! What a cool look in her eyes!
-
- ??? Are you insane? You like a green tea Omega?
-
- That’s a look of pride. It’s obvious she’s trying to provoke Lu Jing’s female fans. How interesting. This girl is provoking her love rival from a distance. Lu Jing’s girlfriend fans must be going crazy!
-
- Jingjing is single. This is a one-sided seduction by a staff member. Don’t spread rumors.
-
- Could this person be the reason Lu Jing was taken away by the Alpha Center? It’s terrifying to think about!
-
- I heard the scene was chaotic. No one dared to enter or leave the TV station all day. Is it true that people were throwing rotten eggs?
-
- This b1tch looks familiar. I went to A Station’s official blog. Isn’t this the staff member who was with Fu Yilan in the C position on the champion poster two episodes ago?
-
- Don’t even mention it. I’m already crying. I was even shipping the two female Omegas. I didn’t expect this girl to be so ambitious and want that position for herself! (Crying) (Crying)
-
- Hahaha, this girl also said she was going to openly promote Fu Yilan. It turns out she just wanted to be with Lu Jing openly~
-
- Lu Jing came from an idol background. Is this considered a fall from grace for him, with a scandal at the peak of his career?
-
- It was just a little help, wasn’t it? You fans are so crazy. It’s not right to curse an Omega like that.
-
- Lu Jing was sent to the hospital the day before because of an Omega’s heat cycle episode, and the next day an Omega came over and intimately held him. How can fans not get the wrong idea?
-
- I think everyone is jumping to conclusions. Don’t be like this. Don’t cyberbully this girl. I really like her looks!
Joey turned off her phone and asked Fu Haitang with her arms crossed, “You’re more famous than the trainees now. What are you going to do about the public opinion that has reached this point?”
Fu Haitang: “The statement has already clarified the truth between Lu Jing and me. I have also apologized on Weibo and to Lu Jing. The matter has been handled, hasn’t it?”
Joey: “Then what’s the meaning of adding in your apology statement that you’re a fan of Lu Jing? Aren’t you deliberately adding fuel to the fire? Who knows if you’re a career fan or a girlfriend fan?”
Fu Haitang smiled. “My conscience is clear with Teacher Lu. Explaining it further would only make it look like I have something to hide. And at that time, I really just wanted to help him.”
Joey exhaled and tilted her head, looking at Fu Haitang. She suddenly gasped as if she had just remembered something. “Ren Qing said you like to take risks. I didn’t believe it then, but now it seems you’re indeed difficult to manage.”
“You value my decisive methods, but you also want me to be docile,” Fu Haitang said with a meaningful smile, looking at Joey. “Director Joey, don’t make it difficult for me.”
Joey was deep in thought. “Group Show 07” had already entered the top five of A Station’s variety show viewing records. The number of live viewers was over 1,000,000. The highest single-episode view count broke 90,000,000. The first broadcast was over 200,000,000. The advertising revenue was 300,000,000, and there were now over ten sponsored brands.
The extra content, which was only available to members, brought in the highest increase in new members among all variety shows, TV series, and online programs in the past three months!
This show had already brought in over 500,000,000 yuan in revenue for the TV station, and that didn’t even include the stock market’s growth.
And this was only the data from the halfway point of the recording. Compared to real money, a small scandal was nothing to the higher-ups, but this didn’t conflict with disciplining their subordinates.
Joey’s face was serious. “Be careful not to go too far and get yourself killed.”
Fu Haitang nodded. “Don’t worry, Director Joey.”
Joey: “You can just call me Assistant Director. You’re a talented person who is willing to go all out. We should have a meal together sometime.”
Fu Haitang smiled. Her phone vibrated. It was a private message from Weibo. She didn’t even need to look to know it was someone cursing her.
So what? Fu Haitang’s lips curved. She only knew that the show’s discussion was even higher now.
There were still five days until the fourth public performance. The Lu Jing incident could maintain its popularity for a week. The viewership of this show was getting higher with each episode, except for the second one, which was produced during Ren Qing’s time.
Fu Haitang opened the data chart and smiled softly. What she wanted was to break the record for the highest single-episode view count for A Station’s most popular variety show!
“That little b1tch! I haven’t even had a scandal with Brother Lu yet, and she’s already famous!” Gu Jingjing clenched her phone. “I was so wrong about Fu Haitang. I didn’t even know I was raising a ghost in my house. I’m so mad, I’m so mad!”
“Don’t be mad, Jingjing,” Lin Meixue said, wiping away sweat and comforting Gu Jingjing. “At least no one cares about your negative news anymore, right?”
The scandal that caused such an uproar last night, which led to Gu Jingjing being called back to the old residence, was followed by a series of sensational news today. It was indeed a good thing, but the person involved was Lu Jing! The news was about Lu Jing’s scandal!
How could Gu Jingjing just let that go!
Gu Jingjing: “I’d rather be cursed to death by netizens!”
Another voice chimed in. Fu Yilan slowly twisted the lid off her water bottle. “The way it was done was so obvious. It was clearly to block your scandal.”
Gu Jingjing was stunned. “What does it have to do with you?”
Fu Yilan: “Of course, it has something to do with me. I finally got some new a trending topic, and in a blink of an eye, it was overshadowed by Lu Jing and a staff member’s scandal. Do you think it’s easy to be on the front page?”
Gu Jingjing stood up abruptly. “So it was you who deliberately smeared me, causing me to be scolded by my dad and grandpa for hours!”
“You brought this on yourself. You’re jealous of me,” Fu Yilan slowly walked around Gu Jingjing, looking her up and down. “And you won’t let me fight back?”
Lin Meixue’s mouth was wide open. She was friends with Jingjing, but she didn’t need to be enemies with Fu Yilan. So she slowly moved a meter away, turned her back, and pretended not to hear anything as she drank her water.
“Fu Haitang is your person, isn’t she?” Fu Yilan asked with a smile.
Gu Jingjing: “What if she is? What if she’s not?”
Fu Yilan wiped the water from her lips. “Her tactics are impressive. Why don’t you let her work for me? I need an assistant or a manager who knows how to market and create hype.”
“No way! Fu Haitang is my family’s servant. I would never let her go to you. And you can forget about getting Brother Lu!” Gu Jingjing rolled her eyes, threw down her water bottle, glared at Fu Yilan, and quickly ran away.
“I’ll give you money,” Fu Yilan said, drawing out her words.
Gu Jingjing: “Get lost!”
Fu Yilan frowned. Fu Haitang was a lunatic. She was becoming more and more reckless in her actions. She even smeared herself. Was she completely obsessed with money?
“Ah-choo!” Fu Haitang, with her head buried in documents, suddenly sneezed several times. She muttered, “Who’s cursing me?”
