Chapter 1327: Walking In The Backlight (3)
Recently the weather was hot. A man squatted in the grass, bearing the flies and mosquitoes, and he was very uncomfortable.
But for the sake of firsthand news, these things had to be endured.
The man aimed his camera inside. Seeing someone come out from inside, he immediately got excited.
But he took some pictures and suddenly realized something was wrong.
She…
Why did it seem like…
She came this way?
Ming Shu stood in front of the bush and said, “Hello.”
The man was frozen. Should he be running or running?
“Here, take your picture.”
Just as the man was about to run, the girl standing in front of him suddenly pulled down her mask.
The girl said in a smiling way, “Take some really good pictures of me, and remember to PS.”
The paparazzo: “…”
Artists would long run if they saw any paparazzo, who would come to him so openly and ask to be photographed?
The paparazzo took some pictures dizzily.
“Well, do you have a car?”
“…”
In the end, he sent her home.
He was a paparazzo!
Why did he drive her home!
The paparazzo went back to his studio and ran into someone.
The indifference struck him, making the paparazzo come to himself in an instant. “Brother Liang, I’m sorry.”
The man flicked his coat and walked away.
“Phew… scary.” The paparazzo got in, there were not many people inside.
As soon as the paparazzo showed his face, someone came up and asked, “You’re back, how’s it, got any big news for today?”
The paparazzo drank water to get over his shock. “You have no idea what a fantasy I’ve been through today.”
“Oh? How fantastic is it?”
“Wen Di, you all know her name, right? Today, I got a phone call saying someone saw Wen Di. So I hurried over, waited for her to come out, and guess what?”
There had been a lot of news about Wen Di recently, of course they knew this name.
And the Weibo she posted earlier was very bold.
They’d never seen an artist do something like that before.
“What, did you photograph her being the third woman on site?” If so, that was really a big news.
“No, she discovered me. And you know what, she walked closer and asked me to take some really good pictures of her, and in the end… She asked me to give her a ride home.”
“…”
What did that mean, giving her a ride home?
Wrong expression?
Or did they hear it wrong?
They discussed with strange feelings and didn’t understand what the movie queen meant by doing that.
After the discussion, the paparazzo sighed. “I’ll just report what happened today to Brother Liang first.”
The crowd immediately dispersed.
“Good luck.”
“Go ahead, you got it.”
…
When Ming Shu returned home, Du Mei had been waiting outside for a long time.
Seeing Ming Shu was back, Du Mei took off her sunglasses.
“Where have you been? How dare you go out now? Do you think you haven’t gotten enough black material dug up?”
“Hush.” Ming Shu smiled and raised her finger. “Don’t yell, you may disturb the residents.”
Du Mei: “…”
The corridor was not suitable for talking, so Du Mei followed Ming Shu in.
As soon as the door was closed, Du Mei could not resist.
“How many times have I told you to lie low these days and stop making trouble? Why don’t you listen?”
Ming Shu put down the key and took off her mask and hat.
“Sister Du, I have something to ask you.”
“I’m talking business with you now. What do you have to say now, maybe later. And let me tell you…”
“My business is more important.” Ming Shu interrupted her.
Du Mei suddenly met Ming Shu’s gaze and lost her words for a time, feeling a little uncomfortable in the bottom of her heart.
The girl opposite her had been smiling all this time, and that smile…
It was very strange.
Du Mei frowned, held back for a while, and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Ming Shu raised her lips a little. “Who’s targeting me behind my back?”
Du Mei’s pupils dilated slightly, but she disguised it very quickly. “How would I know that… The exposed news are unusual, but the company will look into them.”
“Sister Du, let’s just be honest and save the potential awkwardness.”
Du Mei retained a cold face. “Have you been under a lot of stress lately?”
She slowed her voice a little. “There’s too much news about you being reported recently. The company had an overnight meeting and we are trying to figure something out for you. You should just do what I tell you, stay out of the way for some time, and this will soon be over.”
Kacha—
Ming Shu pinched her fingers and made scary noises.
Du Mei’s voice stopped abruptly.
“Wouldn’t it be nice to be just a little sunnier?”
Du Mei: “!!!”
…
Ming Shu sat on the sofa, her legs resting on the end table.
Du Mei sat on the floor with a pale face. Cold sweat matted the broken hair on her forehead, and she looked confounded.
The way she looked at Ming Shu was fearful.
She never knew that the artist she’d been with for so long had such a side.
“You really don’t know who’s against me?”
Du Mei shook her head and gritted her teeth. “The order was from the company, and I just work for the company…”
How could she have given up on her if it hadn’t been ordered by the company?
She was popular and it was the right time to make money from her.
Who would not want to make money?
Ming Shu thought about it carefully. “But at least you may have a clue, no?”
Du Mei did have a clue.
After all, she was qualified to be the movie queen’s agent and enjoyed a decent status in the company. It was not strange that she may have her own connections.
When she received the news, she was also very surprised and asked someone to look into it a bit.
“If I tell you, will you let me go?”
“Sister Du, you are at least my agent, how dare I do anything to you?” Ming Shu chuckled. “Besides, we live in a lawful society, I must abide by the law.”
Du Mei: “…”
You didn’t obey the law when you beat me just now!
Du Mei was really afraid.
She felt like she was in limbo just now.
She gasped and continued, “I got the news from unreliable source so I’m not sure if it’s true. It seems… it was ordered by Hengfeng Group’s president.”
Hengfeng Group’s businesses covered a wide range of fields.
The entertainment company the Host worked for belonged to Hengfeng Group.
If it was ordered by the group president, how would any staff dare not to execute it.
Ming Shu touched her chin. “Which president have I offended?”
The Host didn’t seem to know Hengfeng’s people.
How could she offend someone up there?
“…”
Du Mei also didn’t know. She got the news by accident and didn’t know if it was true.
Ming Shu began to imagine.
Could it be that some president took a fancy on the Host’s beauty, but the Host rejected him? The president was pissed off and decided to force the Host out, making her unable to get along in showbiz, so that the Host would go back and beg him in the end?
What a cliched drama!
This was far too wild.
Ming Shu sent Sister Du out and gave her some kind suggestions.
Sister Du trembled. After getting out of the elevator, she left quickly as if chased by ghosts.
Ming Shu did a little investigation on this president of Hengfeng.
The president took over Hengfeng three years ago and had achieved admirable accomplishments in just a short time.
He had both talent and good looks.
He was a woman’s ideal husband.
But this president preserved his moral integrity and didn’t get involved in any box news…
Ming Shu murmured, “He’s quite good-looking.”
[…He knows Gu Xi.] The Harmony System’s voice was a little weak. [He’s pursuing Gu Xi.]
The Harmony System seemed a little scared of Ming Shu now.
It didn’t dare speak much and just shut up as soon as it finished talking.
Ming Shu touched her chin and smiled.
Gu Xi…
That little cutie.
