Chapter 130: 130 Not even a shred of sentimental attachment is left

Chen Beini’s team caused a commotion at Tianwang Entertainment, only to realize they had been played, because the contract only stated that An Lan had to cooperate with an apology, but it did not specifically mention that the ultimate goal was for An Lan to help Chen Beini clear her name. Moreover, An Lan did indeed cooperate, only apologizing to herself, which hardly constituted a breach of contract.

Chen Beini’s team not only lost face but also suffered a setback, and in the end, they only received a “goodwill suggestion” from Tianwang, which was considered a little compensation for their “losses”.

After finishing the call, Tang Ze gave Shi Lan a thumbs up, and after putting away his phone, he continued, “Although the company has decided not to pursue your willfulness this time, we want you to re-engage with your fans now that you’ve regained your popularity. After all, what kind of star doesn’t need the support of their fans?”

Shi Lan still shook her head, “I’ve already said, I only want to clear the name of a green tea bitch and a brown-noser.”

“Why are you so resistant?”

“Because I understand fan culture better than you do,” Shi Lan countered Tang Ze’s momentum, “Tang Ze, I’ve told you before that essentially, I’m not a good person, nor do I have much positive energy to spread. I don’t want to be anyone’s role model, and I dislike people labeling me. Can you let me live a bit more comfortably?”

...

Tang Ze looked deeply at Shi Lan and finally, as if making a concession, nodded, “I won’t force you, but the company might.”

“We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it,” Shi Lan replied calmly, planning to settle accounts with the company later, as for now, it was just about handling Chen Beini, and there was still Gu Chengyu to deal with.

“By the way, Glory has a ribbon-cutting event in a few days, and we’ve been invited,” Tang Ze changed the subject.

“Leave that sort of thing to you,” Shi Lan said.

…

After the debacle at Gu Chengyu’s birthday party, the afternoon filming on set was actually impacted—not because any actors took leave, but because when the main actors arrived on set, there was almost no communication among them. While Director Tang was used to this, it made acting the scenes together very challenging.

Shi Lan’s performance was as stable as ever, and Gu Chengyu managed to keep up with the pace, but Chen Beini was emotionally down all afternoon, hardly present. Director Tang kept sighing. It wasn’t a good time to kick someone when they were down, so he had Chen Beini’s assistant help her leave to cool off for the night.

As for Gu Chengyu, it must have been the worst birthday in history.

The Anti-Chen Alliance continued their efforts until the evening to ensure they covered all of Chen Beini’s business resources.

After careful consideration of the suggestion from Tianwang, Chen Beini’s team decided to cut their losses. The first step was to sever ties with their fan groups, expelling the combative fans; the second, to actively admit their mistakes and issue sincere apologies to each artist, especially focusing on placating An Lan; the third step, to keep an eye on the Combat Group stirring trouble, and then have Chen Beini lay low until the dust settled.

Chen Beini’s team planned to mull over it tonight and start fervent marketing tomorrow morning, but they did not know that every step they were about to take was already laid with traps by Shi Lan…

After wrapping up filming, Shi Lan took Sun Ling back to the hotel to remove makeup. On the way, they encountered Gu Chengyu and his assistant carrying a heap of birthday presents, but Shi Lan did not engage and breezed past them.

“Chengyu, it’s your birthday today, no matter what, An Lan went too far,” Gu Chengyu’s assistant complained.

Watching Shi Lan’s retreating figure, Gu Chengyu let out a cold laugh followed by a deep breath, “Yeah, she did not leave even a trace of affection.”

“She even insulted your acting…”

“She spoke the truth, my acting is indeed second-rate,” Gu Chengyu said as he entered the elevator, “Let’s go to the fourth floor first, to see that woman who’s about to ruin herself. I’ve had enough as well. Take this opportunity to discuss breaking up.”
