In fact, Jiang Yi didn't even realize that he had let Zheng Xinyao get her way when he came out after their conversation.
After getting into the car, Jiang Yi's pupils constricted, and with a cold sneer, she questioned him on the phone: "Did you have someone take photos?"
Zheng Xinyao said on the other end of the phone, "I didn't contact anyone, but as a top star, Brother Jiang has a lot of paparazzi around him all year round. If Brother Jiang doesn't want people to misunderstand, I can come out and explain."
"Hmph, you'd better watch your mouth."
"Don't worry, I always know my own limitations, but Brother Jiang, just don't forget your promise."
Jiang Yi angrily hung up the phone and said to Qin Liang, "Give the lead role in that period drama that the company invested in to Zheng Xinyao."
Qin Liang said, "Ayi, are you really going to give it to her?"
Qin Liang was there, but outside the private room, and had no idea what Zheng Xinyao had threatened Jiang Yi about that made her want to give her such a good production.
"The paparazzi just caught her linking arms with you. I'm worried it'll get leaked. Should I take care of it?"
Jiang Yi was about to nod, but then she remembered the document Zheng Xinyao had given her, and suddenly snorted, "No need."
Qin Liang had no idea what he was up to this time: "Aren't you afraid Ji Meng will misunderstand?"
"What does her misunderstanding have to do with me?"
Well, it seems the two of them are having a disagreement.
But we can't be so willful; what needs to be dealt with must be dealt with.
Unfortunately, Qin Liang underestimated Jiang Yi's popularity, and she made it into the top three trending topics in less than half an hour.
People who should have seen it and those who shouldn't have seen it have all seen it, so Qin Liang simply issued a statement saying that it was just a discussion about cooperation.
Meanwhile, Shen Jimeng, who was far away on set, felt extremely jealous after seeing the news. She tossed and turned all night, waiting for Jiang Yi to call and explain, but she didn't receive a single message.
As a result, she went to the set the next day with a dull face and was completely out of sorts.
The director asked her to adjust twice but she couldn't get it right, so he gave her the afternoon off and rescheduled her scenes with other actors.
Shen Jimeng couldn't resist any longer and took advantage of the time to drive directly to the city where Jiang Yi was filming.
Jiang Yi wasn't doing much better today either, frequently turning off his phone and clearly not in the right frame of mind.
Everyone saw the trending topics last night and thought it was because of Zheng Xinyao.
As it was getting dark, Shen Jimeng suddenly appeared on set.
Jiang Yi even asked the director for leave at this time, and everyone looked at each other.
I roughly understand why Jiang Yi did it.
But everyone kept quiet about it and no one said anything.
Back at the hotel, Jiang Yi sat on the sofa with a cold face, while Shen Jimeng looked at him with red eyes and finally said after a long while, "Aren't you going to explain?"
Jiang Yi then looked up at her, his face cold, and said, "What's there to explain? Do I need to report to you even if I have a meal with a female friend now?"
Shen Jimeng was still unaware of Jiang Yi's unusual emotions: "You know perfectly well that Zheng Xinyao and I don't get along, so why are you so intimate with her when you eat together? You're afraid your fans will boycott us, but now you're not afraid your fans will boycott her? Why can we only hide things from outsiders? Jiang Yi, how much sincerity do you really have in your heart?"
"Sincere?" Jiang Yi suddenly gave her a disdainful look, his gaze filled with hatred.
This made Shen Jimeng pause in surprise: "What do you mean?"
