Chapter 276: Does She Deserve To Be on a Variety Show?
“I know that a lot of people are concerned about the reason why the counselling and education platform that I have set up is only made available to Ginger Candies. What I want to explain to everyone here is that there is a limit to my abilities. I only have the capacity to help a certain number of people right now. Moreover, I do not wish to offer help to those with a malicious heart and evil intentions. You can also say that I am biased because I want to help these Ginger Candies who have given me strength and courage to move forward every day and likewise, I would like to give them strength and courage too. This is how the Ginger Candies can grow as a family and I promise that the education platform will always be available to them.”
“I am not an incredible or amazing person and I am not trying to use this platform as a means to change any of your perception of me. The only reason I have created this platform is to help and support the fans and followers who really like me.”
“Finally, Xiao Zhou, I hope that you will be a dignified person and make sure that you fulfill the promise that you made earlier today. I hope that you will not make your grandfather sad again, okay?”
After recording the video, Vera made an okay gesture. After editing the video slightly, Vera posted the video onto Jiang Yuning’s official fan page.
After watching the video, all of the pa.s.sers-by and the Ginger Candies felt that Jiang Yuning did not do anything wrong at all.
[This is really ridiculous. Why are people questioning Jiang Yuning for creating a counselling and education platform that is exclusive to her own fans? Is she supposed to start a charity then? How can all of you be so shameless? She already said that this is a fan benefit to thank her own fans and followers!]
[If I were in Jiang Yuning’s position, I would have done the same thing. Why would I create something that would benefit the people who are constantly insulting and attacking me? Why would I want to pay for your children’s counselling and education? I hope that you can work on your own intelligence!]
[I really wonder what is wrong with the people nowadays. Is nine years of education not enough?]
[If I was Jiang Yuning, I would have just shut down the education platform immediately. Jiang Yuning is really a very good person.]
Everything was just as Jiang Yuning had expected. There were indeed more righteous people in this world and right now, more than 90% of pa.s.sers-by were on Jiang Yuning’s side.
The matter involving Jiang Yuning’s education platform was finally resolved in the end. Moreover, the education platform was now not only known to Ginger Candies, but it was now known throughout the whole country. This incident also caused a rapid increase in the amount of people signing up to become an official Ginger Candy. This meant that Jiang Yuning would have to recruit more psychologists and education experts to run the platform.
…
“So, who was the one who sold that information to Star Entertainment?” Jiang Yuning asked Vera as they sat on the balcony after recording the video.
“Do you really need to ask me that question? It’s Hua Xin,” Vera replied immediately. “I also secretly found out from An Yiqing’s new agent that Hua Xin and An Yiqing are on very close terms. That is probably the reason why An Yiqing is trying so hard to get close to you.”
“Well, if that is the case, then let’s deal with them one by one. We can start by dealing with An Yiqing first,” Jiang Yuning replied with an indifferent expression on her face. “Do I really look like the type of person who gets bullied?”
“Probably…” Vera replied as she shrugged.
“Let’s make a trip to Guangying Media now.” Jiang Yuning then changed into a small black suit before she instructed Vera, “Tell Director Shen that I want to meet An Yiqing.”
“I will make the necessary arrangements.” Vera replied as she opened the door for Jiang Yuning.
…
At this time, An Yiqing was with Lin Xuan when she suddenly received a phone call from Shen Yichen, instructing her to go back to the company.
Both of them finally went their separate ways right before An Yiqing entered Shen Yichen’s office but all this was seen by Vera who was standing right behind Lin Xuan at this time. After An Yiqing entered Shen Yichen’s office, Vera patted Lin Xuan on his shoulder before saying, “Wow. An Yiqing is no longer an artiste under your management but you are still taking such good care of her. Shouldn’t you receive an award for being the best agent in the entertainment industry?”
Lin Xuan turned around and looked at Vera with a twisted expression on his face. “That is none of your business.”
“Yes, it is indeed none of my business but I have to tell you that the reason why An Yiqing is going to lose everything that she has today…is all because of you.”
After hearing Vera’s words, Lin Xuan looked at An Yiqing, who was standing on the opposite side of the gla.s.s door, but Vera stopped him immediately. “I would advise you to think properly before you act. If you go in now, both you and An Yiqing would be dismissed from Guangying Media together! Are you sure that you will be willing to give up your own future just because of An Yiqing?”
Lin Xuan was silent as he pondered for a moment.
After that, he glared at Vera with a furious expression on his face.
“You are so vicious.”
“No matter what it is, I could never be as vicious as you. Lin Xuan, do you know why you career progression is still stagnant though you have already been in this industry for so many years? Even if you continued working hard for another hundred years, you will still be in the same place because of your character and personality.”
After that, Vera made a gesture at Lin Xuan before she walked away.
“Let’s wait and see then!” Lin Xuan snorted coldly before disappearing from Shen Yichen’s office.
In fact, Shen Yichen was not in the office at the moment and the person sitting on the sofa was none other than Jiang Yuning. However, An Yiqing did not know this because her view was blocked by the bookshelf at this time.
“Director Shen?” An Yiqing whispered softly when she did not see anyone inside the office. Jiang Yuning replied from behind the bookshelf at this time.
“Here.”
An Yiqing did not know that it was Jiang Yuning’s voice and she walked briskly to the sofa with a smile on her face.
However, as soon as An Yiqing turned around and was about to sit down, she realized that Jiang Yuning was the person waiting for her in Shen Yichen’s office. An Yiqing’s whole body turned stiff immediately.
“Sister Yuning.”
“Sit down.” Jiang Yuning nudged towards the sofa directly opposite her before she put down the book that she had in her hand.
“Isn’t…Director Shen looking for me?” An Yiqing asked Jiang Yuning as she carefully sat at the edge of the sofa. “Since Director Shen is not here right now, I think I will come back and meet him later.”
After she was done speaking, An Yiqing stood up and was just about to leave, but Jiang Yuning caught hold of her arm and stopped her immediately.
“Did I say that you can leave?”
“Sister Yuning…”
“Haven’t I been nice and gracious enough to you?” Jiang Yuning asked as she looked up at An Yiqing with an indifferent and cold expression on her face. It looked as though Jiang Yuning could kill An Yiqing with her eyes at any moment now. “I thought that you were very shameless and brave when you used my name to gain attention for all your propaganda? Why are you so afraid to face me now?”
Jiang Yuning was extremely harsh with her words.
At this time, An Yiqing could not help but reply, “I offended Sister Hua Xin because of you, but what have you done for me?”
“Did you offend Sister Hua Xin because of me, or did you deliberately offend her just because you wanted to get closer to me?” Jiang Yuning questioned An Yiqing immediately.
An Yiqing was stunned and she hesitated for a moment because she did not expect Jiang Yuning to see right through her actions.
“So what if I have done it on purpose? You are still extremely cold and ruthless! I lost so many resources because of you but in the end, Sister Hua Xin was the one who helped me…”
“Hua Xin helped you?”
“Yes. Sister Hua Xin is more generous than you are. She even gave up partic.i.p.ating in a variety program and offered it to me as a form of compensation for stealing my resources in the first place. What about you?”
Jiang Yuning could not help but laugh out loud when she heard An Yiqing’s words. “You are really one of the dumbest people I have ever met in my life. An Yiqing, do you know how stupid you sound right now? Hua Xin compensated you? Let me ask you a question. Do you think that Xiya Hotel’s sponsors.h.i.+p or Hua Xin’s reputation is going to be a bigger factor in giving you a spot in the variety program? Or do you really think that my ident.i.ty as a major shareholder of Xiya Hotel has not played any part in this matter at all?”
An Yiqing was shocked and her eyes widened immediately as soon as she heard Jiang Yuning’s words. She started shaking her head as she mumbled, “No…this is impossible…”
“You know the truth but you just refuse to admit your own stupidity.” After that, Jiang Yuning sent Vera a text message and then, Vera entered the office immediately.
After Vera came in, Jiang Yuning instructed Vera, “Make a trip to Xiya Hotel and tell them to remove An Yiqing from the variety program. Does she deserve to be on a variety show?”
