Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Fear She Dares Not Upload
“There’s no need for anyone to make decisions for you anymore,” Mu Lingyun said, picking up the cup beside her and slowly standing up, enunciating each word, “You want evidence, I’ll give you evidence. Why trouble others?”
As Mu Lingyun spoke, she filled the cup in her hand with water.
“Evidence? What evidence do you have? Bring it out,” Li Xianghong said, convinced that Mu Lingyun had no evidence, so she tilted her head up slightly with an air of arrogance.
“Whoosh—” Mu Lingyun flicked the cup in her hand, dousing Li Xianghong’s face with the water and soaking her clothes in front of her as well.
“You—” Li Xianghong’s mouth hung open in disbelief, “You dare—”
“Smack—” Mu Lingyun lifted her hand and slammed the cup onto Li Xianghong’s face.
“See that? This is what I splashed. This is the evidence, the real deal, understand?” Mu Lingyun said, one word at a time.
“Ah—” Li Xianghong screamed again, “I will definitely upload this video to the internet, I will make sure you have nowhere to bury your body.”
“Go ahead!” Mu Lingyun said with a faint smile, “If you have the guts, upload it.”
Having said this, Mu Lingyun walked out, heels clicking.
This office was originally fine, but now it was filled with a foul atmosphere, and she didn’t want to stay a moment longer.
“Rong Shaofeng, Guo Zongbao, how can you let her leave so easily?” Seeing Mu Lingyun leaving, Li Xianghong shrieked, “I said I don’t agree with the company signing her; if you don’t terminate her contract, I’m going to terminate mine!”
Rong Shaofeng glanced at Li Xianghong and curved his lips into a mocking smile.
“If Movie Queen Li wants to terminate the contract, don’t tell me, just discuss it with the legal department!”
Having finished speaking, Rong Shaofeng also followed Mu Lingyun out.
“Guo Zongbao!” Seeing Rong Shaofeng leave, Li Xianghong was fuming, her only option to turn to Guo Zongbao and shout.
“I will consider your opinion, but don’t act impulsively; we can discuss it later,” Guo Zongbao said, then turned and walked away.
Lai Hezhi, who had been silent until now, looked at Li Xianghong and shook his head.
Some people, he thought, always overestimate themselves.
He figured that if Rong Shaofeng himself didn’t dare to provoke her, why would Li Xianghong, thinking she’s some Movie Queen, go and provoke her? She’s really asking for trouble until she sees her own downfall.
“Bro,” Lai Hezhi patted Lin Shuo’s shoulder and said, “I’d advise you not to court death. You might as well tell your Movie Queen to stop seeking it. Otherwise, no one can save her.”
After Lai Hezhi left, Lin Shuo watched his retreating figure with slightly furrowed brows.
Lai Hezhi’s words seemed to have an underlying meaning—could it be that Mu Lingyun had some formidable backing they couldn’t afford to offend?
However, at that moment, Li Xianghong’s rationality had been completely overtaken by anger as she clenched her teeth and said, “Lin, I must make Mu Lingyun roll out of the company, and you must help me!”
Lin Shuo’s brows furrowed, neither agreeing to help nor refusing outright.

When Rong Shaofeng caught up with Mu Lingyun, he asked, “You’re just leaving like this?”
“What else?” Mu Lingyun asked, raising an eyebrow, “Should I stay and have a meal with them?”
Rong Shaofeng: …
“What I mean is, aren’t you going to destroy the video Lin Shuo shot? Aren’t you afraid they’ll actually upload that video to the internet? If netizens take it out of context, you’d be doomed,” Rong Shaofeng explained.
“I’m a bit scared, but I’m actually afraid she won’t dare to upload it,” Mu Lingyun said, her eyes chill with cold light, “How can I make her life utterly miserable if she doesn’t upload it? How can I avenge my manager?”
