329 Chapter 329. The Fake Gown
The fans, who had been waiting so long, seemed to have returned to life after suffering. However, they did not become arrogant because of their happiness. They only admired their idol’s unparalleled beauty in their small circle and did not go anywhere on the internet to disturb other netizens.
Yang Lu, who was doing her makeup, was chewing gum while scrolling through her phone. She shook her head slowly. “Ding Shan’s fans are too obedient. If it were me, I’d show off in front of Chen Tong’s fans a hundred times and give them a good slap in the face.”
Yang Lu had seen how Chen Tong’s fans had mocked Ding Shan. Although she didn’t like Ding Shan, she hated how Chen Tong’s fans did things. She even reported a few fan accounts that said disgusting things.
Yang Lu’s assistant, Nancy, smiled. “Ding Shan’s fans are just like her; they’re all very cultured.”
“You seem to like Ding Shan.” Yang Lu turned her head and raised her eyebrows. “I’m in a competitive relationship with her. How can you help an outsider?”
“I watched ‘Little City Girl’ when I was in school, so of course, I’m biased towards her, ” Nancy said. “But don’t worry, I’ll still stand by your side if you have a conflict with Ding Shan.”
Yang Lu seemed to have thought of something and chuckled, “She’s not the kind of person who likes to cause trouble. She didn’t fight with Chen Tong because she didn’t want to bother her.”
Nancy was a little surprised. She knew Yang Lu and Ding Shan were fighting for the Best Actress award. She also knew that Yang Lu had been stabbed many times by Ding Shan’s manager. However, from Yang Lu’s tone, she didn’t seem to hate Ding Shan that much.
“You sound like you’re complimenting her. Why? You don’t hate her anymore? ” Nancy said.
“In the past, all those disgusting things were done by her manager, Yang Hua. In the Ding family, she was just like a puppet. Why should I be calculative with her? Do I look like such a petty person?” Yang Lu rolled her eyes. Her facial features were beautiful, and even when she rolled her eyes, there was still a flirtatious charm.
Someone knocked on the door. After opening the door, the company staff handed over a box. “This is the evening gown. Wear this.”
After saying that, the staff member closed the door and left.
Nancy opened the gift box and looked at the clothes with confusion. Then she touched the material of the clothes, and her face suddenly changed.
“What’s wrong?” Yang Lu walked over and asked.
“The clothes have been changed. This isn’t the one sent by the brand. I’ve seen that one before. It doesn’t feel like this under natural light.” Nancy’s face turned pale.
Yang Lu also frowned. She touched the material of the clothes and was silent for a while. Then, she put down her hand. “You can’t wear this.”
She was attending a charity party tonight, and many celebrities would attend. She also had to be interviewed by reporters. If people discovered that she wore fake clothes, her reputation in the entertainment industry would be entirely ruined.
“These disgusting things! Not only did he take a commission, but he even dared to send a fake gown over!” Nancy could guess that the actual gown must have been sold.
Yang Lu sat back in her chair, feeling a little annoyed. She took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a puff. In the smoke, her charming eyes revealed a trace of coldness. “Go and ask Anthony if he has any extra dresses. If he does, help me borrow one.”
Anthony was a stylist who had worked with Yang Lu before. He had a good network in the circle, and the two could be considered half-friends.
Annoyed, Nancy put the dress back into the box. “Okay, I’ll go and borrow it.” After a few seconds of silence, Nancy said helplessly, “When will such days end?”
“End? I’ve signed a seven-year contract with the company, and if I cancel it, I’ll have to disappear from the entertainment industry for three years. I can’t act in any shows, and I can’t appear in the public eye. You know what that means to a celebrity.” Yang Lu took a deep puff of the cigarette. The pungent smell made her eyes turn red. She put out the cigarette and said, “Don’t overthink it. Haven’t we been through this for the past two years? ”
Yang Lu looked at Nancy and said apologetically, “I’m sorry. You don’t have to suffer with me.”
After all, Nancy had not signed a contract with the company.
“I’m not an ungrateful person. I’m going to get angry if you repeat such things.” Nancy smiled. “Okay, I’ll go and borrow the dress. You can rest for a while.”
