Knowing that Ling Tianya and Cheng Chen still had things to discuss between them, Guan Meiyi stayed in the multimedia reception hall for a while before leaving. Cheng Chen and Ling Tianya hadn’t seen each other in a while so she gave them some space.
After leaving the multimedia reception hall, Guan Meiyi and Zhang Ke wandered around the building. Although Zhang Ke was the big boss’s assistant, she was not as familiar as Guan Meiyi with the inside of Zhi Ya Entertainment.
As they walked in the direction of Ms. Pan’s office, they saw her waiting there while looking around expectantly. When she saw Guan Meiyi, she enthusiastically rushed over.
“Aiya, Guan Meiyi. I knew you were no ordinary person and that sooner or later, you would shine.” Ms. Pan was aware of everything that occurred during the press conference. She knew that Ling Tianya was the big boss and knew that the female lead of Wonderland was definitely Guan Meiyi. She also knew that Guan Meiyi was Ling Tianya’s cousin.
Ms. Pan had Guan Meiyi, who was such a large tree, under her control. Wouldn’t she be successful as well in the future?
Guan Meiyi looked at Ms. Pan, whose attitude had taken a 180-degree turn, unsure of what to do.
Seeing Guan Meiyi’s indifferent attitude, Ms. Pan thought of how, in the past, she had often suppressed and isolated her. Therefore, she mockingly smiled, “Meiyi, I know that you feel that I didn’t treat you well in the past. However, it was all for the sake of polishing your emotions. Look at you now! Not only have your acting skills improved, but even your temperament has changed. Isn’t that all due to my efforts? Also, it was I who recommended for you to act in Director Li Meihong’s movie. At that time, you said that there was no way you would act the role of a prostitute. Wasn’t it me who patiently persuaded you to do it?”
Hearing Ms. Pan’s words, Guan Meiyi got a strange look on her face. Originally she had not intended to expose this woman. After all, the heavens were watching. In the company, she was simply a low-level manager. All of the artists she managed were newbies. Her dislike for an artist who had been blacklisted online and had no way of getting back up was a normal reaction from her.
However, Ms. Pan was now going overboard by selfishly proclaiming that all of Guan Meiyi’s successes were due to her efforts.
Therefore, Guan Meiyi’s face turned cold. “Ms. Pan, originally I didn’t intend to say this. Everyone is well aware of how you treated me in the past. Therefore, I have no need to clearly say it, as long as you understand. I understand that reason you treated me in such a way in the past. After all, the reason lies in me. It was I who failed to live up to your expectations. You have to manage many artists, therefore, you have no reason to worry about me.”
Hearing Guan Meiyi’s words, Ms. Pan’s face grew resentful. “It’s good that you can understand me. However, Meiyi, I really just wanted the best for you. They all say that a strict teacher trains a fine student. I was merely being strict towards you.”
Zhang Ke stood to the side, rolling her eyes and scoffing. How can this woman’s face remain neutral after spewing such false words?
“A strict teacher trains a fine student?” Guan Meiyi lost her smile. “That’s right. A strict teacher definitely trains a fine student. However, my strict teacher isn’t you, Ms. Pan.”
“This….Meiyi….I am your manager, you say…”
“Ms. Pan, stop talking. At that time, the reason why I accepted the role of the prostitute was not because of you, but because of Tianya. It was she who reminded me and told me what my problem was. Ask yourself honestly. At that time, when you gave me that role, what were you thinking?”
Ms. Pan stammered and didn’t say anything. Back then, she had forced Guan Meiyi to accept the role of a prostitute because she wanted to kick her out. At that time, she had been certain that Guan Meiyi would not accept the role and had planned to report her to the bosses if she refused to accept it. She had intended to tell them that Guan Meiyi refused to be disciplined and behaved like she was going to violate the contract. She was planning to use her refusal as a tool to kick her out of Zhi Ya Entertainment.
