Magic City.
The press conference is about to begin, and Xu Mei is making final preparations in the dressing room.
Cao Bo and Gong Sheng were staring at each other in the lounge nearby.
After the breakup, Cao Bo had not seen Xu Mei yet. Thinking about the meeting soon, Cao Bo was a little nervous.
"Will Fang Ping really come?"
Cao Bo was trying to make conversation, but Gong Sheng remained calm and composed. "Of course she'll come. Our CEO Jiang personally went to the train station to pick her up, and she's on her way to the venue... Mr. Cao, if I remember correctly, this is the fourth time I've answered the same question."
Cao Bo choked, "I just don't want to make this trip in vain!"
The round-trip airfare from Hunan Province to Shanghai was not expensive for Cao Bo, but he was indeed under pressure to make this trip.
Pressure from home and pressure from Mr. Guan.
Because of Zhao Dong's actions, Xu Mei and Cao Bo's past relationship was dug up and reported every day. The public sympathized with Cao Bo for being cuckolded, and said that the two were in a contractual relationship. Recently, the Cao family has to endure other people's strange looks when they go out.
Cao Bo's parents have always looked down on Xu Mei, and now they hate her even more. They forbid Cao Bo to have any involvement with Xu Mei!
Not to mention Mr. Guan. Mr. Guan can understand that Cao Bo is unwilling to admit that he is cuckolded, but Cao Bo still has to cooperate with Jiaxin to clarify for Xu Mei, which will make Mr. Guan very unhappy.
Allies in the same camp must advance and retreat together. If Cao Bo insists on helping Xu Mei, President Guan should doubt Cao Bo's position!
So Cao Bo came here without telling his family or allies, and left Hunan Province secretly like a thief.
If today's press conference fails to achieve the expected results because Fang Ping fails to arrive on time, Cao Bo feels that he would be at a great disadvantage!
Thinking of this, Cao Bo immediately felt justified and urged Gong Sheng: "No, no, make another call. What if there's a traffic jam?"
Gong Sheng actually made a phone call.
In order to clarify for Xu Mei, Cao Bo was a key figure and this man with the surname Cao was still useful, Gong Sheng made a concession very tactfully.
Why is Cao Bo so anxious?
There is only one answer.
Xu Mei is in a very good condition now and is not suitable for a relationship for the time being, at least she cannot rekindle her old relationship with this guy named Cao... So Gong Sheng knows the answer but cannot point it out.
"Are you at the door? Okay, okay, I'll come out to meet you."
Gong Sheng hung up the phone, and Cao Bo rushed out in one quick step.
It seems that Cao Bo will never feel at ease unless he sees Fang Ping in person.
Jiang Youjia accompanied Fang Ping into the venue.
Cao Bo almost didn't recognize Fang Ping.
"Professor Fang?"
Fang Ping smiled at Cao Bo and said, "I'm not a professor anymore. You can call me by my name or Teacher Fang."
Fang Ping used to be a person who paid great attention to details. She usually wore branded clothes. She was not ostentatious, but her style was definitely worthy of her professor status.
After becoming a judge on a talent show and a manager, Fang Ping's dress became more particular.
Fang Ping, standing in front of Cao Bo, had short hair, wore khaki casual pants, a white shirt and a beige wool cardigan. She looked so ordinary and plain.
Fang Ping didn’t even wear makeup!
I heard that Fang Ping got a large sum of money when she divorced. How did she become so destitute?
Not only did Fang Ping not wear any makeup, she was also tanned.
At first glance she looks very shabby, but only after looking closely can you see Fang Ping's composure.
Being interviewed at a press conference and facing so many media is such a big deal. If it were the old Fang Ping, she would have taken it very seriously.
Fang Ping doesn't dress up specially now. She looks the same as she does at press conferences.
Because Fang Ping already understood that Xu Mei was the only protagonist of this press conference. Fang Ping came to clarify for Xu Mei, and after saying what needed to be said, Fang Ping left. Xu Mei was a big star in the entertainment industry, and Fang Ping was just a teacher in a rural primary school!
The assistant came running over to say that all the media reporters had arrived.
Cao Bo specifically asked, "Has the reporter I beat up come yet?"
"Here he comes. His seat is in the first row."
Cao Bo rubbed his hands together, thinking that if the reporter still didn't behave today, he would beat him up again.
Gong Sheng gave Jiang Youjia a look, and Jiang Youjia followed Cao Bo like a personal bodyguard.
After leaving the venue, it doesn’t matter if Cao Bo beats that reporter 20 times, but he must never do that at the press conference!
No matter what the occasion, once a fight occurs, everyone's attention will be diverted. Wouldn't today's press conference be in vain?
Only after everything was ready did Xu Mei come out of the dressing room.
Fang Ping is simple and Xu Mei is also low-key.
As a victim, Xu Mei would not be aggressive in her makeup and appearance.
When he saw Xu Mei, Cao Bo avoided her gaze and didn't dare to meet her eyes. Instead, Xu Mei was very calm and generous: "Cao Bo, thank you for making this trip."
Cao Bo feigned composure, "It's a small matter. Mr. Gong even generously reimbursed my travel expenses. I'm not coming here specifically to clarify things for you. I'm mainly embarrassed to admit it myself."
Cao's duck was cooked, but its mouth was still stiff.
No one exposed Cao Bo.
Xu Mei thanked Fang Ping, but Fang Ping waved her hands repeatedly: "Don't thank me, this is something I owed you before, and I should have come here today. After I clear things up for you, these things in the entertainment industry will have nothing to do with me anymore. If you encounter any trouble in the future, I won't be able to help you."
Although Xu Mei did not study music, she does have a good voice.
After signing the contract with Guan General Company, Xu Mei won the championship.
But even if Xu Mei didn't sign the contract, she would at least be the third runner-up in that talent show. She relied on her own strength to make it into the top three.
Good voice, talented.
During the competition, Fang Ping was actually very optimistic about Xu Mei.
If those things had not happened later, Fang Ping would not have insisted on being Xu Mei's agent, but would have just been Xu Mei's professional teacher. Many years later, they would definitely have become a great story of master and apprentice in the entertainment industry.
It’s too late to say these things now. Fang Ping recalls the past with a lot of emotion.
Xu Mei didn't say anything else.
At this press conference, Xu Mei, Cao Bo and Fang Ping, the three parties involved, each had their own concerns.
When the three men appeared together, the portal reporter who had been beaten by Cao Bo was dumbfounded.
Forget about Cao Bo, but why is Fang Ping here? Didn't Mr. Zhao say that no one could find Fang Ping?!
The reporter from the portal website felt a dull pain in his body and wanted to slip out of the venue to inform Zhao Dong. Gong Sheng, accompanied by two security guards, stood in front of the reporter with a smile.
"The press conference has just begun. Where do you want to go, Reporter Cheng?"
Reporter Cheng hesitated.
Gong Sheng asked two security guards to guard the man on both sides.
"Reporter Cheng, you're reporting without any evidence. You know our company can sue you, right? You spread rumors with just your mouth, but we're working ourselves to the bone to refute them!"
Gong Sheng didn't know how Xie Qian found Fang Ping.
It is really not easy to find a teacher who teaches in a rural primary school and doesn’t even watch TV in such a short time!
