Lin Jingyu called Li Duo, but Li Duo hung up on her and blocked her.
Lin Jingyu was trembling with anger. She was unwilling to be ignored by Li Duo like this, so she managed to get Wen Shu's phone number from Su Ying and called Wen Shu's phone.
Wen Shu didn't answer at first. She saw an unfamiliar number and assumed it was a sales call, so she hung up immediately.
Unexpectedly, the same number called twice. Wen Shu thought the other party had something important to say, so she reached out and answered.
As soon as the call connected, Lin Jingyu's voice came through, "Wen Shu, right? I've finally found your number!"
Wen Shu was taken aback. "Who are you?"
Lin Jingyu couldn't help but laugh out loud in anger, "Can't you tell who I am? I'm Lin Jingyu! Do you know why I called you?"
Wen Shu frowned. What could possibly be between her and Lin Jingyu? It was obvious—it was because of Li Duo, wasn't it?
Thinking of this, Wen Shu calmed down. What did she have to be afraid of? What right did Lin Jingyu have to yell at her?
You should know that she and Li Duo are now legally married and protected by law!
So Wen Shu spoke up, "Miss Lin? I didn't recognize your voice at first. After all, I don't think Miss Lin and I have anything to discuss, nor do I think we have anything to talk about. As for why you called me, that's your question."
Lin Jingyu sneered, "Wen Shu, stop pretending! Have you no shame? Who do you think you are? What right do you have to marry Li Duo? What makes you think you can marry Li Duo?"
"Don't you know who you are and what your status is? You really have the courage to marry Li Duo!"
Wen Shu listened calmly to Lin Jingyu's furious voice on the phone, her brows furrowed, a surge of anger welling up inside her. Lin Jingyu thought, "Who is she?"
She said, "Miss Lin, what right do you have to say these things to me? Do I need to tell you who I am? And who are you? I think you're the one who doesn't know yourself!"
Wen Shu meant that Lin Jingyu, an outsider, had no right to interfere in her relationship with Li Duo.
However, Lin Jingyu interpreted it as Wen Shu implying that she was not a daughter of the Lin family.
Lin Jingyu gritted her teeth and said, "Don't you know who I am? I'm the victim whose man you stole, you shameless bastard!"
"You only have one child. You're using your child to blackmail Li Duo. Do you really think Li Duo likes you? Have some shame! If it weren't for your child, Li Duo would never have broken off our engagement!"
"Don't deny it! You're a shameless homewrecker who ruins other people's relationships!"
Lin Jingyu screamed hoarsely, utterly devastated by the news of Wen Shu and Li Duo's marriage.
She felt like a victim, that Wen Shu had stolen Li Duo away from her.
But Wen Shu immediately retorted, "Miss Lin, I think your memory is faulty. Why don't you think back to why Lido broke off the engagement with you?"
"You don't think that just because you've forgotten, everyone else has forgotten what you did, do you? Wasn't the reason Li Duo broke off the engagement with you because the Li family discovered those videos you made with other men?"
"You're talking nonsense!" Lin Jingyu's body was trembling.
"If you've forgotten, do you want me to help you remember? Do you really think that just because you don't remember, everyone else has forgotten too? I was there at the time. Who's shameless? Who's shameless? Don't you have any self-awareness?"
"Lin Jingyu, how can you, having had that kind of experience yourself, still criticize and humiliate other victims? Is it my upbringing and humility towards you that have caused you to misunderstand and think I'm afraid of you?"
Lin Jingyu: "You..."
"Finally, let me tell you, Li Duo is my husband and the father of my child. Please, as a soon-to-be bride, do not harass me and my husband, and do not act as if you know my husband very well and harass me."
"You're a public figure, you should have more self-respect than me. I never expected you to be so shameless."
"Like I said, I have nothing more to say to you. I hope you won't call me again. That's all!"
After Wen Shu finished speaking, she hung up the phone immediately.
Seeing the phone suddenly disconnected, Lin Jingyu was so angry that she smashed the phone and screamed "Ah, ah!" while clutching her head.
Thinking about the series of disgusting things that happened to her today, Lin Jingyu felt that today was her unlucky day.
But soon, Lin Jingyu discovered that her bad luck didn't end there, because her agent suddenly called to say that the female lead for the big movie that had been agreed upon had been changed.
The reason is that the investor put his young girlfriend into the production team and insisted that she be the female lead, directly replacing Lin Jingyu's role.
Lin Jingyu originally had high hopes for this film, hoping to use this opportunity to make a comeback in China.
She now only has the reputation of a returned actress, but Lin Jingyu knows that this is just hype from her agency. In reality, her current market value is not recognized at all, and she doesn't have many resources.
It's rare for a big movie to cast her as the female lead, but unexpectedly, she was replaced by someone else in the end.
Lin Jingyu said angrily, "They're bullying us too much! They signed a contract and then just breached it like that!"
The agent sighed and said, "Everyone understands the logic, but the other party said that if we don't agree, the project will be canceled."
“Jingyu, we just returned to China. You're still young, and you'll have plenty of opportunities in the future. If we go to court now because of this breach of contract, which production team will dare to work with us in the future? I think we won't return the initial payment, and the cooperation should end here. Let's leave it at that!”
Lin Jingyu said angrily, "But how long do I have to wait? I've been back in the country for so long, and I still haven't released a single proper film. The film I shot before still hasn't passed censorship, and I don't know when it will be released!"
The agent said, "Jingyu, calm down, these things can't be rushed..."
"I don't want to live a half-dead existence in the domestic entertainment industry! My family never agreed to me entering the entertainment industry in the first place. They are unwilling to give me any help or support. If I do worse and worse, what opportunities will I have in the future?"
"And another thing, that round-faced girl who was only eighteen years old just half a month ago, became a top-tier actress with just one poorly made period drama. How am I supposed to stay calm?"
"If you had just given me a role in a hit drama, I wouldn't be sitting on the sidelines like this now!"
