77 A Framing Attempt
The entire place fell silent.
Drugged?
She was an artiste from Lin Entertainment, and she had extremely powerful backers. Making a move on Su Ran was the same as making a move on Lin Su, and the entire group would retaliate.
Who could be so bold?
Everyone turned to look at the person who spoke.
That person was none other than Lin Su’s second sister, Lin Jin.
Lin Jin looked at the crowd, her eyes sweeping across everyone.
Her sharp gaze sent chills down one’s spine.
Even the ones in charge of the live feed forgot their duties. Everything was still being streamed.
The chatroom had long run wild.
[Who is this woman? She’s so confident.]
[She seems to be the Second Miss of the Lin Group. Her words carry a lot of weight.]
[Oh my God, this is so dramatic. I didn’t expect this matter to involve so many people!]
The crowd was watching the commotion, and the guests in the banquet hall were also nervously waiting for Lin Jin to speak.
For some reason, Lin Jin’s eyes settled on Luo Ying.
Luo Ying frowned and looked at Lin Jin. She had an ominous premonition that she was about to be blamed for this.
“Everyone, a moment please. I’ll call someone over,” Lin Jin said to the security guard beside her.
The security guards escorted a woman in. The woman looked haggard. The moment she saw Luo Ying, she wanted to pounce on her.
“Luo Ying, you’ll die a horrible death. I’ve done so many horrible things for you, but you locked me out of the entire industry. You’re shameless!”
The security guard seemed to have deliberately let Xia Lan go. Xia Lan pounced at her like a wild tigress.
Luo Ying frowned and grabbed Xia Lan’s wrist, holding her in place.
She reminded herself to stay calm. It was not the time to retaliate.
Xia Lan was not willing to give up just yet. She reached out with her other hand and tried to hit Luo Ying.
Luo Ying pinned her to the ground with her self-defense training.
[Isn’t this woman Luo Ying’s previous manager? Why are they fighting?]
[Luo Ying’s so skilled.]
[Putting two and two together, we can see that Luo Ying is the perpetrator.]
Xia Lan’s face was twisted as she looked at Su Ran. “Su Ran, Luo Ying was the one who ordered me to set you up. She was the one who drugged you. She asked me to find out your schedule. She planned all this!
“She gave me a branded bag and said that she would give me a sum of money after it was done so that I could go back to my hometown and start a small business.” Xia Lan raised the bag in her hand.
Luo Ying looked at Xia Lan. The original Luo Ying had indeed gifted her this bag, but it was not for this purpose.
“You used to be my manager. It wouldn’t be odd for me to gift you a bag. But this was not a recent gift, right? Well then, Ms. Su Ran, when did this happen?”
Su Ran’s eyes were red, and she stared at Luo Ying with hatred.
“You did this, Luo Ying. You did this!” As she spoke, she rushed up and grabbed Luo Ying’s arm, shaking her. “I knew you’ve always had a crush on Lin Su. I can’t believe you would resort to such means!”
This sentence was like a sudden clap of thunder, causing the entire place to blow up.
Everyone knew about Luo Ying’s feelings for Lin Su. Lin Su had also been vocal about his support for Su Ran recently. They had not expected this to have taken place behind the scenes.
[I’m really shocked. Is the entertainment industry always so chaotic?]
[Luo Ying is vile. She actually used such a disgusting tactic. Isn’t she afraid of retribution?]
[You guys shouldn’t be so quick to judge. After all, that manager did not exactly have a stellar reputation for her treatment of her artistes either.]
Everyone’s eyes turned to Luo Ying. Luo Ying pulled Su Ran’s hand off her body. “You shouldn’t be in such a hurry to question me, it’s almost like you guys are jumping ahead of the script.
“Tell me then, Xia Lan, do you have any direct evidence that I was the one who drugged her?” Luo Ying asked Xia Lan.
Xia Lan seemed to be looking in Lin Jin’s direction.
Luo Ying sneered in her heart. This group of people was indeed in cahoots.
“Xia Lan gave me a video that can prove that you were the one who drugged her. Why don’t we play it now?”
