“What?”
“There is going to be an announcement about Ruan Zeyan and Guan Meiyi’s engagement tonight at the Yuan Teng Corporation annual reception?”
The whole crew was imploded by what Ling Yuqing had just said. In no time at all, the news reached everyone, and some sophisticated younger actors already started to congratulate Guan Meiyi.
Everyone was aware that the title of ‘young Mrs. Ruan’ was way more powerful than the title of best actress. That was the ultimate status in so many women’s dreams.
Guan Meiyi only pretended to give Ling Yuqing the stink eye in protest, but immediately she was smiling and accepting all the congratulations, “You all worked so hard lately. Let me buy everyone desserts.”
People who already tried to lick Guan Meiyi’s boots, threw even more praises to her.
Zhang Heng’s face didn’t look amused, “Okay, everyone back to work!”
Guan Meiyi turned around and said to him, “Director Zhang, don’t worry, I have desserts for you as well.”
Guan Meiyi found Zhang Heng’s attitude annoying and said those words to him on purpose. Ever since the shooting started, Zhang Heng had been hard on Guan Meiyi on countless occasions. She was going to get engaged to Ruan Zeyan, so she dared Zhang Heng to treat her badly again!
Ling Tianya didn’t look pleased either. She remembered the night before when Ruan Zeyan promised her that things were not too late and handed her an invitation to the reception. Was this what he meant by ‘not too late’? Having her witness his engagement to another woman?
Ling Yuqing thought what bothered Ling Tianya was the fact that Ling Tao didn’t choose to bring her to the reception. She slowly walked over and spoke in an innocent voice, “Tianya Sister, don’t be mad at daddy. He was only thinking about the big picture. After all, your reputation before was not so good, plus the plagiarism scandal you are in right now is all over the news…”
People looked over curiously when they heard Ling Tianya and plagiarism. Even Guan Meiyi had some anger in her eyes.
Ling Tianya’s day didn’t start well, and then Ling Yuqing was really getting on her nerves.
“Where is the sixty-chapter script that I asked you to write? Let me see.” Ling Tianya crossed her arms in front of her body and looked at Ling Yuqing interrogatively.
Ling Yuqing had focused all her attention on the Yuan Teng reception in the past a few days and completely forgot about the script. In her mind, Ling Tianya would be too bogged down by the plagiarism scandal to remember the script. Apparently, she still remembered!
Ling Tianya put on a sad face, “Sister Tianya, you only gave me two days, how could I finish it…? You are the top screenwriter with tons of experience, not me…”
“Top screenwriter?” Ling Tianya sneered, “Didn’t you just say that I plagiarized? If someone like me who plagiarizes could produce a draft in two days, why can’t you?”
“I –” Ling Yuqing’s face twitched, “I didn’t say that you plagiarized. You misunderstood me, Sister Tianya. It’s just I was really busy with other things these past two days, so…”
“Busy with what things? Making sure you look perfect and really stand out at the Yuan Teng reception?” Ling Tianya chuckled, “Don’t overdo it, and don’t forget Meiyi is taking the center stage tonight.”
After saying that, Ling Tianya stopped bothering with Ling Yuqing and walked straight back to her lounge.
Ling Yuqing stood there as hatred formed in her eyes. She knew that Ling Tianya was trying to drive a wedge between her and Guan Meiyi! Unsurprisingly, the expression on Guan Meiyi’s face started to change.
