"Why her?" Lin Chen frowned, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.
"Isn't it because she's close to Liu Tiantian?" Su Yanan sneered, a cold glint in her eyes. "You have no idea how many people are eyeing Tiantian. I only found a scapegoat to protect her. Ding Jiaying is pretty and has a great figure, perfect for the job! Director Si and I both think highly of her! Boss, you should be thanking me!"
"You... what did you say? Director Si, the director of 'The School Beauty's Bedside Master,' he... he also made a move on Ding Jiaying?" Upon hearing this, Lin Chen was shocked, and his face instantly turned pale.
"Hmph, what do you think?" Su Yanan smiled contemptuously. "Director Si has long been tired of Ding Jiaying and has even filmed at least 20 GB of action videos. This time, he made her film so many sex scenes just to hold that leverage over her. Moreover, this time, handing Ding Jiaying over to the Jin family is also for the benefit of our company."
Su Yanan spoke of it casually, as if it were nothing out of the ordinary. However, Lin Chen felt a chill run down his spine. Although he knew about the darkness and sordidness of the entertainment industry, he never imagined such a thing would happen to someone so close to him, especially his own woman!
"Ya Nan, how could you do such a thing..." Lin Chen opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
"Lin Chen, since you've entrusted the company entirely to me, then you don't need to worry about these little things!" Su Yanan interrupted him, her tone filled with unwavering resolve. "I know what I'm doing, so don't ask any more questions."
"I won't ask any questions?! Am I just going to stand by and watch my company's female artists be treated like playthings and sent away to be toyed with?! Su Yanan, what are you thinking?"
"Hehe, boss, you seem to care a lot about Ding Jiaying, could it be that you've taken a liking to her?"
Su Yanan asked a dismissive question, leaving Lin Chen speechless.
"Boss, don't blame me for not warning you, that girl has been with countless men. You may not mind, but I certainly do! What if you use her and then come after me, and pass on all those disgusting diseases to me..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Chen couldn't hold back any longer and slapped him hard across the face!
Su Yanan was knocked to the ground, and blood immediately streamed from the corner of her mouth.
"Well done! Lin Chen, I knew you men were all the same! Come on, keep hitting me. Anyway, you're my boss, and I'm your woman. Go ahead and kill me if you dare! Just like Kikutaro did back then. Come on, step on me and beat me! Come on!"
Despite her face being nearly disfigured, Su Yanan continued yelling at Lin Chen. Because this was a high-end restaurant, Lin Chen's actions had already attracted a lot of attention. At this moment, a restaurant waiter immediately came over to check on the situation.
Lin Chen took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. He knew this wasn't the time to argue with Su Yanan; he'd just consider that slap for Ding Jiaying. Just then, his phone rang. It was a message from Ding Jiaying saying she was alright and they didn't need to wait for her.
Lin Chen stared at his phone screen, his brow furrowed slightly. He had a feeling things weren't so simple; Ding Jiaying's tone seemed off. So, he decided to go and see for himself.
"Stop talking nonsense and come with me!" Lin Chen grabbed Su Yanan and strode towards the hotel. He had a vague premonition of what was going on and knew he had to find Ding Jiaying as soon as possible.
The two arrived at the hotel, and Lin Chen quickly found room 4101. Liu Tiantian had already arrived first. However, when the door was pushed open, the room was full of strangers, none of whom they recognized. Lin Chen took out his phone and dialed Ding Jiaying's number, but it was switched off.
At that moment, Su Yanan sneered, while Liu Tiantian was completely flustered and stood there helplessly.
"It's over, it's over, Jiaying has been sold!" Liu Tiantian said, tears streaming down her face, her voice trembling. "Sister Ya Nan, what happened to your face? Who beat you up like this?"
"It's nothing, my man hit me, I don't blame him, I'm actually quite happy!" Su Yanan looked at Lin Chen beside her with a cold smile.
Lin Chen ignored Su Yanan's sneer and activated his perception ability. His gaze swept through the crowd, trying to find Ding Jiaying's whereabouts. However, there were too many people and the auras were too chaotic, so he couldn't accurately detect Ding Jiaying's presence.
Just then, Lin Chen noticed a detail. He took Liu Tiantian's hand and headed towards the elevator. He already had a bold guess in his mind: Ding Jiaying had likely been taken to a higher floor of the hotel, because that was the most luxurious place in the entire hotel.
...
Meanwhile, in a presidential suite on the 45th floor of the hotel, numerous high-definition cameras were set up. Director Si stood obsequiously to one side, saying to the young man leisurely sipping red wine on the sofa, "Young Master Jin, everything is ready." His eyes kept glancing at the girl on the large bed, a greedy glint in them.
The young man, dressed in a snow-white bathrobe, with professionally dyed and permed hair, looked stylish and handsome. He smiled and nodded, expressing his satisfaction with Director Si's performance: "Director Si is very capable. We will definitely have more opportunities to cooperate in the future."
Kikutaro, standing nearby, patted the young man on the shoulder as encouragement.
"Oh, Ms. Ju, you're too kind." Director Si smiled broadly, his tone full of flattery. "We're old acquaintances. Now that you've allied yourself with Young Master Jin, and I'm still working for you inside the company, this is a win-win situation for us!"
"By the way, where's that bitch Su Yanan?" Kikutaro suddenly asked, a hint of displeasure in his tone.
"Oh dear, Ms. Ju, please don't mention it." Director Si waved his hand, feigning helplessness, and said, "This little wench was sent here by Su Yanan. She's our boss's woman now, how could I dare to touch her? And Tian Tian is also under strict protection. I have no choice with these two women, so you can only play with Ding Jiaying for now. We'll figure out a way to deal with the other two later."
"Alright, let's start with this woman!" the young man said casually, but a greedy glint flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, yes, it's my honor to be able to help Young Master Jin." Director Si nodded and bowed, looking extremely obsequious. "Then we'll be going now, you should get some rest."
After saying that, Director Si led Kikutaro away from the presidential suite.
The young man watched the two figures disappear into the distance, a cold smile playing on his lips. He downed his glass of red wine in one gulp, then stood up and walked to the bedside.
