Chu Liuying was stunned for a second; Fu Jinyan's implication was too obvious.
She has enjoyed the glory and benefits brought to her by Fu Jinyan and Xingyao Film and Television, so she should give back.
“President Fu, I’m not an ungrateful person. I know my success is inseparable from Xingyao and you, but…”
Before she could finish speaking, Fu Jinyan interrupted her coldly, "Since you know, why did you barge into my office shouting? Before today, how much criticism did Xingyao and I suffer? You only want to enjoy the good things Xingyao brings you, but you don't want to think about what you'll do when it's gone. Besides, Chu Liuying, so what if you're a top star?"
"Without my support back then, all your talent and ability would have been nothing but a pile of rotten weeds! Now, I'm releasing the songs you wrote under my name, which is just using my resources and advantages to help promote your work! So what if I get your hard work into my hands? They became popular because of me, not because of you, Chu Liuying!"
Chu Liuying's eyes reddened slightly; of course she knew that Xingyao couldn't fall!
However, she was devoted to Fu Jinyan not only because Fu Jinyan had been kind to her, but also because Fu Jinyan had promised to help her songs become hits, allowing her talent to be displayed to the world in its most beautiful form.
It's important to know that although she is now a top star in the entertainment industry, all of her current works are composed by other people; she is merely the singer.
But her childhood dream was to become an excellent composer so that the songs she poured her soul into could be carried on!
But now, things have turned out this way. Her childhood dreams and hard work have been taken away, and the benefactor who once promised her those dreams has become the plagiarist of her dreams. How can she accept this?!
"President Fu, I understand you, but I absolutely cannot accept you plagiarizing my work!" Chu Liuying cried, tears streaming down her face. "Those works are my hard work and sweat! Do you know how many nights I stayed up and how much effort I poured into them?!"
"To compose each piece perfectly, I stayed up until two or three in the morning almost every night. While others were eating, I was composing; while others were traveling, I was consulting with professional teachers; while others were reaping the rewards, I was still working hard and pouring my heart and soul into it! I followed you wholeheartedly to realize my dream, but why did you plagiarize my work?!"
Fu Jinyan's delicate face fell, revealing a hint of murderous intent: "Then what do you want to do?"
"I want you to issue a statement clarifying that I am the original author of these songs!"
Fu Jinyan gripped the coffee cup tighter and tighter, and the air was thick with tension.
After a while, she smiled slightly, walked to Chu Liuying's side, and patted her on the shoulder: "Liuying, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. Since you're unwilling to release these works, then I'll grant your wish. I'll arrange for them to be released tomorrow."
Chu Liuying was completely taken aback when Fu Jinyan agreed so easily.
Overjoyed, he felt even more grateful to her: "President Fu! Thank you, President Fu!"
She knew that President Fu wouldn't abandon her like this; after all, he had been her benefactor for many years...
"Don't be so polite. I trained you myself, so of course I won't treat you unfairly. What's yours is yours." Fu Jinyan lowered her head to drink water. "Alright, go back and wait for news."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Fu!"
The moment Chu Liuying left the room, Fu Jinyan's friendly and elegant smile froze on her lips.
With her left hand, she picked up the original manuscript that Chu Liuying had left behind, and with her right hand, she dialed a phone number.
"Get rid of her! I, Fu Jinyan, will not tolerate anyone who threatens me!"
"Yes, Miss!"
...
When Chu Liuying came out of Xingyao Yingyu, it was dusk. The sky was covered with dark clouds, and a strong wind was blowing. It looked like a rainstorm was about to break out.
Just then, a taxi passed by, and she quickly waved it down: "Driver, please take me to Nanshan Apartment."
The car had barely started moving when a torrential downpour began, raindrops pounding against the windows, quickly obscuring the view outside.
The driver turned on the air conditioning, and Chu Liuying hugged her arms and fell asleep. A little while later, the driver woke her up.
"Miss, we've arrived. Please get off the bus."
Chu Liuying paid the fare and had just opened the car door when she was grabbed by the arms and dragged out of the car.
Raindrops pelted her face, and when she came to her senses, she realized that this was not Nanshan Apartment at all, but a secluded mountain path.
Immediately afterwards, she felt a figure appear in front of her, and the next second, it felt as if something was pressing against her head.
Upon closer inspection, she realized it was a man wearing a baseball cap and a mask, pointing a gun with a silencer at her head.
"Who...who are you?" Chu Liuying stammered in fright, her whole body trembling uncontrollably.
"Of course, they're here to take your life. Don't blame me, blame yourself for offending President Fu."
"President Fu? Did Fu Jinyan send you?" Chu Liuying couldn't believe it. She couldn't help but scream, "Why did she want to kill me! I just told her in the office that she would issue a statement tomorrow to return my work to me!"
"Hahaha!" The assassin couldn't help but burst into wild laughter. "You're really naive. You think Mr. Fu would give back the meat that's practically in your mouth? You're dreaming! You should go to the underworld and listen to Yama sing!"
In that instant, Chu Liuying felt as if her heart had been hollowed out by a hoe, her heart filled with resentment and bitterness.
She has always believed in and respected Fu Jinyan. Even after Fu Jinyan was expelled from the Fu family and suffered a complete loss of reputation, she never thought of leaving Fu Jinyan because she regarded Fu Jinyan as her life!
But at this moment she realized just how ridiculous her perceived loyalty was!
She saw Fu Jinyan as her hope for realizing her life's dreams, but Fu Jinyan became the executioner who destroyed her dreams!
"Come on, shoot if you want!" Tears of resentment welled in Chu Liuying's crystalline eyes. She gripped the assassin's gun tightly against her forehead, her voice filled with a desperate, soul-crushing scream:
"But go back and tell Fu Jinyan that I'll haunt her like a ghost!"
"Even if I, Chu Liuying, go to hell, I'll drag her down with me!!!"
A mournful cry echoed through the torrential rain, like the final wails and struggles of a person's life.
It also seemed to herald the end of the tragic fate of a generation of actresses.
Bang! A gunshot rang out!
However, the imagined pain did not come.
Chu Liuying opened her eyes in surprise.
But she found that the man who had pointed a gun at her was now lying in a pool of blood, clutching his arm in pain.
She opened her bright, pearl-like eyes in astonishment, but clearly saw a familiar voice in the downpour.
In that instant, Chu Liuying felt as if her acupoints had been struck, and she began to question the meaning of life.
Did she see it correctly?
It's Gu Momo...
