Ye Lan was certainly vengeful. Although she had deliberately provoked Jiang Yue first last time, she had indeed been slapped twice and the video of her having her hair pulled had spread all over the internet.

He gained sympathy, but also lost face within the industry.

She's going to get her revenge this time.

The reason Ye Lan dared to be so unscrupulous today was that she had heard that the head of the Zhou family had a new lover and was already going through legal procedures to prepare for a divorce.

Secondly, the cultural relics she brought to the program today are extremely precious.

Over the years, there have been so many people offering to buy it that ten hands wouldn't be enough.

This was once the dowry of the most esteemed princess, and every jade stone inlaid in it is a rare treasure that is only seen once in a hundred years.

Her grandfather had also bought it from someone else at a high price.

"I'm putting my words here: it's either her or me, it's either her or me."

Ye Lan sat lazily on the sofa in the rest room, determined to teach Jiang Yue a lesson today.

He humiliated her severely, letting her taste the bitterness of being insulted.

The producer was truly troubled; he couldn't afford to offend either of them. However, compared to them, Ye Lan's temper was nothing, and her actions were understandable.

If Jiang Yue hadn't hit her backstage last time, she wouldn't have been so disrespectful today.

Jiang Yue, on the other hand, has a much worse temper.

They attack without warning, without any reason.

The producer was also in a dilemma, as today's episode had already been promoted well in advance.

This piece was brought from the dowry of the noble and favored princess of the prosperous Jiang Kingdom thousands of years ago. When it was passed down, its exquisite beauty amazed people throughout history and across the world.

"Teacher Ye, please calm down. We can discuss this together."

Ye Lan remained silent.

The producer felt there was still room for maneuver, so he continued, "You and Jiang Yue have a misunderstanding. I'll call her over so you can clear things up face to face."

Ye Lan's silence signified her agreement.

The producer thought things were going well and quickly had someone call Jiang Yue over.

Jiang Yue had just finished her makeup, and her hair was tied up with a simple jade hairpin. Her long hair flowed like silk, and her face, with just a touch of color, was already a beauty of unparalleled grace.

She was called in front of Ye Lan, and the producer winked at her, constantly hinting, "Jiang Yue, take this opportunity to clear up any misunderstandings you have with Teacher Ye."

Jiang Yue's gaze fell on the wooden box next to Ye Lan. The fake was placed in the box properly, as if they all thought it was the real thing.

A bunch of blind fools.

Jiang Yue said calmly, "Is there a misunderstanding? I don't remember."

Even without her deliberately looking down on others, her indifferent gaze can inexplicably make people feel that she is inherently inferior to them.

It's very annoying.

Ye Lan sneered and looked at the producer, "You've seen it too, there's nothing to discuss with her attitude."

The producer awkwardly stepped in to smooth things over, then glared at Jiang Yue, saying, "Speak properly."

Seeing that Jiang Yue was staring intently at the wooden box in her hand, Ye Lan assumed that she was coveting the treasure in her arms. Indeed, a lowly person who had climbed up from the slums by any means necessary was naturally a short-sighted country bumpkin.

Ye Lan was so smug she was practically wagging her tail. She smiled at Jiang Yue with ill intent and said, "I'm not an unreasonable person."

She continued, "How about this, you have Jiang Yue apologize to me sincerely, and then we'll record today's program as scheduled."

After hearing the terms, the producer felt that they were not unreasonable at all.

A simple apology can resolve the issue and make everything fine.

He pushed Jiang Yue hard and whispered urgently in her ear, "You should apologize to Teacher Ye right away."

Jiang Yue chuckled, looking at Ye Lan as if she were watching a joke.

She has never apologized to anyone in this life, nor in her past life.

Asking her to bow down and apologize to this person in front of her would be worse than killing herself; why should she put up with such humiliation?

Ye Lan was furious: "What are you laughing at?!"

How can she still laugh?

What are you pretending for?

Jiang Yue spoke casually: "You mean it's either me or you?"

“Yes.” Ye Lan’s lips curled into a cold smile: “See if they choose you or me.”

Jiang Yue originally didn't want to go on stage at all, but she just had a knack for picking fights with others.

If she quits now, people might think she's incompetent and running away.

Jiang Yue nodded. "Then you can get out of here now."

Ye Lan's face was a fascinating mix of emotions, turning red and white as she became furious, like a chameleon.

The producer standing nearby was practically begging to die. He yanked her hard, yelling, "Shut up! Behave yourself!"

The producer is now kicking himself.

If I had known this would happen, I would not have let Jiang Yue participate in this program, no matter who her husband was.

Now look what's happened, a whole mess to clean up.

The producer pulled the person aside and lowered his voice, saying, "Do you know how many people our production team sent and how many times we begged before we finally got Ye Lan's grandfather to agree to lend us this precious collection for our program?"

"Your willful behavior will ruin all our hard work!"

The producer was clearly furious. He had worked diligently for the past few years, focusing solely on making this program a success, and he didn't want his reputation to be ruined by someone like Jiang Yue.

Jiang Yue found it really strange. It was just a piece of jewelry that she kept hidden away, so why did they consider it so precious?

In fact, Her Highness the Princess's treasury contains hundreds more pieces of jewelry that are even more precious than this.

Most of them were the betrothal gifts given when the regent tried to force her to marry him.

Jiang Yue responded with an "oh".

The producer's expression softened, assuming she had come to a realization.

"Apologizing to her is no big deal."

"Go ahead, but be sincere and lower your head."

The producer brought her back to Ye Lan.

Ye Lan looked at Jiang Yue smugly, already having a plan in mind.

Even if Jiang Yue apologizes, she will continue to make things difficult for her, forcing her to apologize a hundred times.

Let's see if Jiang Yue will dare to be so arrogant in front of her again.

Ye Lan did not receive the apology she had imagined.

Jiang Yue remained calm and composed as she slowly spoke, addressing the producer: "But she brought a counterfeit. It's only when she brings fakes onto a show that she'll be ridiculed by the audience."

Ye Lan's eyes widened in disbelief. She stood up angrily and shouted, "What nonsense are you spouting!"

The producer was completely confused. He wasn't stupid, so of course he couldn't believe what Jiang Yue was saying. She barely knew any words, so how could she understand these things?

Ye Lan was truly enraged this time. "You were staring longingly at the wooden box next to me, you were so envious! You can't have it, so you resort to slander, what a joke!"

Jiang Yue's nonchalant attitude was infuriating: "Fake things can't become real. Using counterfeit goods is not a good habit."

The producer wanted Jiang Yue to shut up, but he was so angry he was about to faint.

The other staff members present couldn't stand it either and spoke up for Ye Lan, saying, "Jiang Yue, you've gone too far."

"Yes, they just blurt it out."

"We really put in a lot of effort to show our sincerity before we finally got them to come on the show. Please don't ruin our chances."

The hushed discussions in the lounge were all condemning her for disregarding the hard work of others in order to save face.

They thought she was ignorant.

And they are selfish.

Since Jiang Yue dared to ask this question, she must have been completely confident.

Ye Lan spoke first, her face cold, "I remember you invited the vice president of the provincial museum. He's an authoritative expert in this field. Have him come and see if it's true or not."

"Our Ye family will not tolerate this humiliation!"

"If it's true, Jiang Yue, you have to kowtow and apologize to me, or I will never let this go."

There was not a trace of panic in Jiang Yue's eyes: "Okay."

She smiled casually and said, "Let the experts take a look."
