Chapter 136: Chapter 136 A Conspiracy Waiting to Unfold
Sun Nanjue looked utterly confused as he picked up the phone, glanced at it, and then jumped up angrily, “Who’s so daring to spread such rumors?” He handed the phone back to Sheng Shaochen.
He stood up, pulled out his own phone, and dialed a number, “Ah Chen, don’t worry, I’ll have those guys pull the rumors immediately!”
Sheng Shaochen’s cold eyes narrowed fiercely as his slender fingers punched in Ye Shu’s number.
This time, it rang just once before the other end picked up.
“Mr. Sheng, shouldn’t you be keeping company with your future Mrs. Sheng instead of calling me?” Ye Shu’s voice came through, sardonic and carrying a drunken slur.
“Where are you?” Sheng Shaochen’s voice grew icy.
This damn girl, she still has the mood to drink?
Doesn’t she know she’s been headlined in the news alerts again?
With her current situation, how was he supposed to introduce her to the Sheng Family’s elders?
Sheng Shaochen felt a surge of fury, his expression darkening to the color of charcoal.
“Does Mr. Sheng still care about my well-being? Didn’t you already open a door for Ye Xinyu to bully me whenever she pleases?”
Ye Shu laughed scornfully, her voice a bit too loud, and soon enough, noisy music could be heard.
It appeared she was at some entertainment venue.
“Ye Shu, forget about those rumor-mongers, come on, let’s sing! The sound system at Interstellar Entertainment City is famously good…” A man’s voice came through the receiver.
“Get lost! Shameless scoundrel!” Ye Shu’s voice followed, and then her uniquely desolate voice was heard singing softly.
Sheng Shaochen hung up, grabbed his car keys, and walked out the door.
“Ah Chen, Ah Chen, where are you going? Wait for me!” Sun Nanjue was midway through his call when he saw Sheng Shaochen with a darkened face heading out, hastily following after him.
“Interstellar Entertainment City!” Sheng Shaochen stated coldly.
That damned girl, just thinking about a man flirting with her while she was drunk made his right eyelid twitch uncontrollably, and his steps quickened.
Interstellar Entertainment City!
Ye Shu, her head aching slightly, slumped into a couch, humming a song.
Ou Linlin frowned beside her, massaging her temples, “Ye Shu, let’s go back.”
Ever since Ye Shu joined the “Nine Lives Demon Phoenix” cast, Ou Linlin had prepared for Ye Xinyu to make trouble for them.
But she never expected Ye Xinyu to be so shameless as to snap compromising photos of He Jingxuan and leak them to the media, sparking sudden rumors.
It seemed like Ye Xinyu, that bitch, wouldn’t be content until she completely blackened Ye Shu’s name!
By now, everyone in the crew was probably discussing the matter, yet Ye Shu, stubborn as ever, refused to leave and insisted on staying put.
Ou Linlin really didn’t know what was going through that girl’s head.
Ye Shu pushed Ou Linlin away and grabbed the bottle on the table, downing one glass after another.
The burning sensation in her throat only made her consciousness clearer.
She had braced herself to face all sorts of tribulations the moment she entered this circle.
But the clearer her mind, the more she thought of Sheng Shaochen, and thinking of Sheng Shaochen reminded her how he had become Ye Xinyu’s backer!

Irrationally, deep down, she felt this was all condoned by Sheng Shaochen!
“Ye Shu, you really don’t have to be so unhappy. In this industry, rumors are inevitable. Besides, rumors aren’t necessarily a bad thing. Plenty of people beg the media to create them some buzz for more exposure, more topics…”
The assistant director tried to console Ye Shu, only to be silenced by her suddenly sly and chilling smile.
Still smiling charmingly, Ye Shu picked up the bottle and held it out to him, “So, how about creating a scandal with the assistant director too?”
“Well… that’s not entirely out of the question…” Before the assistant director could finish his sentence, Ye Shu poured the drink over his head.
As she poured, she laughed, “How about this headline: ‘Assistant Director Hits on Actress While Drunk, Ends Up Disfigured’?”
After speaking, Ye Shu slammed the now-empty glass onto the table, shattering it and grabbing a broken edge. Suddenly, she thrust the jagged piece toward the assistant director’s face…
Terrified, the assistant director scrambled away in panic.
Others, too, shifted away, keeping their distance from Ye Shu.
In the corner, He Jingxuan, pale with fear, tapped out a few trembling words on his phone screen—Sister Xinyu, maybe we should just call it quits? I don’t want to continue this…
