Chapter 137: I Hope Jiang Yuning Will Make a Police Report
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Vera received some photographs from the deputy director of <Hilarious Artistes> which had been taken by the production crew on the day of the recording. As the studio was usually used for live recordings, there were no CCTVs and therefore no recordings of the event that had transpired that day.
However, the production team was able to provide them with photographs that were taken from many different angles.
“The production team are only able to provide us with this kind of assistance. There is nothing else that they can do,” Vera informed Jiang Yuning as she passed her the photographs. “It might be difficult for us to find the culprit since we cannot see what these people were actually thinking or doing.”
Jiang Yuning took the photographs from Vera before she started inspecting each and every one of the photographs very carefully. She compared each of the photographs before she finally smiled and said, “There is actually no need to be able to know what was going on through their minds at that time. Look at the pictures carefully. At that time, there were only four people able hear the conversation between the deputy director and I. It is clear that the other production crew members would have been unable to hear us because they were busy doing other things at this time, while these four people had turned around to look at me and the deputy director.”
“Just compare the photographs and you will find something really interesting.”
As soon as Vera heard what Jiang Yuning said, she put the photographs down on the table and arranged them side by side for easier comparison.
She eventually found out what was interesting about the pictures.
Out of the four people who were eavesdropping on Jiang Yuning and the deputy director’s conversation, three of them were holding onto other things while they observed the drama. However, the fourth was holding onto his cell phone as he recorded or took pictures of what was happening.
“I will look for this person and find out what is going on,” Vera said immediately.
“Alright then. I will be waiting for your update.”
The both of them laughed together because they finally had a lead on the culprit, but Vera suddenly stopped laughing and maintained a straight expression on her face. This was because she did not know why she was feeling happy for Jiang Yuning. She was supposed to hate her and she had obviously came here for a reason.
However, it seemed as though Jiang Yuning had already won her over in just a few days’ time.
Therefore, she kept reminding herself that she should not be acting like this.
Jiang Yuning noticed Vera’s inner struggle and the corner of her lips hooked up slightly.
“Vera, you can leave and do your work first. Yuning, please stay behind. Chairman Gu has asked me to convey a message to you,” Shen Yichen suddenly spoke up at this moment.
“Alright then. I will go and look for the person now,” Vera said as she picked up the photographs. She glanced at the both of them before she left. In fact, she did not believe that Shen Yichen was merely conveying a message from the chairman. If that had been the case, he would not have needed to do it in secret.
So, what exactly was the relationship between Jiang Yuning and the chairman of Guangying Media?
“Director Shen, you are just making life difficult for me again. Aren’t you deliberately causing a misunderstanding between Vera and I by saying something like that in front of her?” Jiang Yuning complained as soon as Vera left.
“What else could I have said? The boss wants to see you.”
Jiang Yuning could not help but sigh.
Alright then.
However, the reason why Gu Pingsheng wanted to meet her was because he wanted to know more details about everything that had happened while he was abroad. After listening to what she had to say, he asked her to go home.
Shen Yichen then accompanied Jiang Yuning as they walked to the underground carpark of Guangying Media. However, Jiang Yuning was shocked as soon as she saw the condition of her car.
There was blood all over the car and also many dead mice placed on top of her car.
To make matters worse, someone had scratched the words ‘Jiang Yuning, go to hell!’ onto her car.
“You should drive home in my car now. I will call security,” Shen Yichen said although he was clearly in shock. He quickly took his car keys out from his pocket and handed it over to Jiang Yuning without any hesitation. “To think that this person actually has the guts to do this in Guangying Media. I will make sure that I apprehend that person!”
“Alright, I will go home first,” Jiang Yuning replied after taking the car keys from Shen Yichen.
In fact, Jiang Yuning had never encountered anything like this even though she was generally hated by the public. Even when she was involved in the scandal concerning the director who was married, she had never encountered any incidents as vicious as this.
She did not believe that anyone would have such courage and willingly take the risk by entering Guangying Media’s underground carpark just to do this, unless that person had been instigated to do so.
Furthermore, someone had also taken a picture of Jiang Yuning’s car and posted it onto the internet.
[Jiang Yuning is finally being punished for everything she has done.]
[If Jiang Yuning doesn’t just disappear, then I guess someone will directly destroy her car next time.]
There were also some netizens who felt that the other party had acted too viciously and therefore, they automatically sided with Jiang Yuning.
[Isn’t this act way too vicious?]
[I think this is overboard. This is just too sickening!]
[I hope Jiang Yuning will make a police report.]
…
The rumours surrounding Jiang Yuning continued circulating on the internet, perhaps due to all these vicious actions.
Since Guangying Media and the production team of <Hilarious Artistes> had already stepped forward and issued an official statement to prove Jiang Yuning’s innocence, then the most crucial thing at this time was for Xiya Hotel to get its public relations team to speak up. If Xiya Hotel remained silent at this time, it would only mean that Jiang Yuning had something to hide.
At this time, all the loyal and supportive fans in Jiang Yuning’s fan club were also panicking and starting to get restless. “Sister Yuning, I think it would be best for you to come out and provide an explanation about this matter now. We are really worried about you!”
After staring at the comments for a long time, Jiang Yuning finally replied her fans with one word. “Okay.”
As soon as the fans saw her reply, they got all excited and quickly waited as they kept refreshing the webpage.
“We love you, Sister Yuning!”
“It is so good to be able to chat with Sister Yuning directly now!”
“Hurry up and explain, Sister Yuning! I want everyone to know that my favourite actress is not that kind of person!”
Just as the discussion on the internet was starting to get more and more overwhelming, Xiya Hotel finally made a move and released an official statement on their official website.
“Recently, there have been plenty of hot searches on the internet which have included words such as #JiangYuningGodfather, #JiangYuningXiyaFather, #JiangYuningPullingStrings, and so forth. Therefore, in response to these rumours, we have decided to clarify the truth once and for all. First of all, our current chairman is Mr. Jiang Zhitong, who is none other than Miss Jiang Yuning’s biological father. Our chairman and his daughter have faced many difficulties and obstacles in the past few years and it is only recently that they have finally had the opportunity to acknowledge one another. Therefore, we would like to clarify that Miss Jiang Yuning definitely does not have any godfathers, gold sponsors, or any inappropriate relationships with anyone in Xiya Hotel. Secondly, our hotel has always maintained the highest levels of professionalism in all of our business dealings, with this professionalism and business integrity also maintained in this case even though we are one of the gold sponsors for <Hilarious Artistes>. I hope that all netizens will not believe the rumours on the internet stating that Xiya Hotel has interfered with the selection of the artistes participating in the program. Thirdly, Miss Jiang Yuning is one of the major shareholders of Xiya Hotel and therefore would not need to be involved in any inappropriate relationships to gain any favors.”
A video recording taken by Jiang Zhitong at the airport was attached directly beneath the official statement.
In the video, Jiang Zhitong was wearing a face mask, but his face was still faintly visible.
“Hello, everyone. I am Jiang Zhitong. Yes, I did not die in the car accident five years ago but in order to recuperate and recover from the injuries that I had suffered in the accident, I did not have the chance to contact my daughter in the past five years. I have only had the opportunity to finally meet and acknowledge my precious daughter recently, but I have never expected this to turn into such a big matter.”
“Initially, Yuning did not want me to stand up and rectify the truth on her behalf as she does not want me to get dragged into the problems in the entertainment industry. However, as a father, it saddens me to see my own daughter being so defenseless while she is getting blamed and accused of doing something that she had not done.”
“Therefore, after knowing the truth regarding this matter, I hope that the netizens and the public will not suffocate my daughter any further, but continue to give her positive encouragements and support instead. I will be very grateful towards all of you.”
“Last but not least, if anyone continues to be malicious and continues defaming Xiya Hotel, we will be taking the appropriate legal measures to punish these offenders. Thank you.”
Everyone was shocked upon watching the video.
Jiang Zhitong was not dead! Jiang Yuning’s biological father was still alive!
