"Sister? I wouldn’t dare! I think very soon, I’ll have to start calling you Sister Tong." Wendy stared at her, speaking coldly.

"Sister Wendy is joking." Jian Liangtong replied.

"Joking? I’m not joking! Haven’t you heard? You’re now the company’s number one sister. Soon, I think even Director Zhang’s position will be yours to take." Wendy snorted coldly.

Jian Liangtong squinted slightly, still smiling, "Such words from Sister Wendy are not good to say. You and I know it’s a joke, it’s not serious, but if someone who doesn’t know hears it, they might misunderstand."

"Enough, stop pretending." Wendy’s voice suddenly deepened, her face turned even colder as she stared into Jian Liangtong’s eyes, sharp enough to seem like she wanted to cut her!

Jian Liangtong took a slight breath, the smile on her face disappeared without a trace, her brows lightly furrowed as she looked at Wendy.

"Now everyone in the company is saying, among the artists you and I have brought out at the same time, your artists generally develop better than mine.

The whole company is secretly discussing, saying I’m old and can’t keep up with the times. And you, Jian Liangtong, are beautiful and young, plus you’re quite skilled. Your artists are developing better than mine, which is reasonable."

Wendy lightly bit her teeth, with a few degrees of resentment in her tone, "You’ve probably heard such words quite a lot, haven’t you? Do you feel a sense of accomplishment? In GR company, you’ve already surpassed me as the most capable manager!"

Jian Liangtong listened without interrupting. Finally, she looked at Wendy calmly and said, "Sister Wendy, as a manager for artists at GR company, everything I do is solely for the better development of the company and my artists. What others say isn’t something I can control.

I haven’t used despicable means to grab resources, nor do I participate in any activities other than official work. To be honest, Sister Wendy, I don’t think doing my job well should cause you any misunderstanding."

"Stop talking so high and mighty! Pretending to be so innocent in front of me, yet who knows what you’re doing behind my back!

Last time I asked you about the female lead in Director Chen’s movie, you told me Director Chen hadn’t mentioned anything about the female lead casting to you.

But today I just went to meet Director Chen, and he told me his lead has already been decided, it’s your artist, Zhang Le Yi! Your hypocritical face is truly disgusting."

Wendy sneered.

The pride in her heart wouldn’t allow herself to lose to a newly started small agent!

But she also knew she was ultimately a veteran manager in the entertainment industry, wasting words with such a small agent, if it got out, would inevitably make people laugh.

So after saying these words, Wendy took her assistant and left.

Jian Liangtong frowned tightly, watching Wendy and her assistant leave.

She didn’t really feel anything from the words of scolding.

Just shock!

Director Chen’s new movie wants to use her artist as the female lead, how did she not know?

Chen Zhenglin hadn’t contacted her, and Jian Liangtong didn’t feel it was appropriate to actively seek him out, to confirm what Wendy had just told her.

If it’s true, then fine.

If it wasn’t the case at all, it would feel a bit ridiculous to call and ask!

Film set.

Jian Liangtong bought some drinks and snacks to visit Zhang Le Yi.

But as soon as she arrived at the set, Jian Liangtong sensed something was wrong.

Because despite offering drinks and snacks, not a single person was willing to accept them.

Either ignoring, or with a strange face, refusing.

Jian Liangtong bought so many drinks and snacks, and not one was given out.

Makeup room.

Zhang Le Yi was sitting at the makeup table, applying makeup.

Jian Liangtong placed the drinks and snacks on the table, pulled over a stool to sit beside Zhang Le Yi, took out a bottle of drink from the bag, opened it, and handed it to Zhang Le Yi, "Want a drink?"

Zhang Le Yi, perhaps because she was applying makeup, glanced sideways at Jian Liangtong, neither accepting nor speaking.

Jian Liangtong paused for a moment, retrieved the drink, and placed it back on the table.

She noticed the makeup artist was looking at her.

Jian Liangtong blinked and looked up.

The makeup artist shrugged at Jian Liangtong, applied blush to Zhang Le Yi, then left the makeup room with the makeup bag.

Jian Liangtong watched the makeup artist leave, feeling strange inside.

She pursed her lips and looked again at Zhang Le Yi, "Was everything smooth in the crew today?"

"Mm."

Zhang Le Yi replied coolly, speaking without even looking at Jian Liangtong, applying lipstick to the mirror.

Jian Liangtong squinted slightly, stared at Zhang Le Yi for a few seconds, said nothing, picked up a box of drinks and snacks, and got up to leave the makeup room.

"Director Tan." Jian Liangtong saw the director, seemingly discussing the script with the writer, and stood there for a while. Waiting for the writer to leave, she smiled and walked over.

Tan Chao looked at Jian Liangtong upon hearing.

Jian Liangtong wasn’t sure whether it was her illusion, but Tan Chao frowned as soon as he saw her.

Jian Liangtong lowered her eyes slightly, the curve of her lips deepening, walked over and held out the drinks and snacks to Tan Chao, "Thank you for your hard work, director."

Tan Chao looked at the drinks and snacks in Jian Liangtong’s hands without taking them, and then looked at Jian Liangtong and smiled. But the smile had a bit of a sarcastic meaning, "How would I be working hard? The hardest one is Xiao Zhang. It’s a big thing for her, a future big star, to act in a small role in a small director’s film."

Upon hearing this, Jian Liangtong felt something was amiss.

Jian Liangtong squinted her eyes, forcing a smile as she sat next to Tan Chao, "Director, you shouldn’t belittle yourself. Look at the entire entertainment industry, who doesn’t know you, Director Tan Chao? You’re an artist!"

The sarcastic smile didn’t diminish from Tan Chao’s lips at all.

Jian Liangtong looked at Tan Chao, who only smirked without speaking. Ignoring her own awkwardness, she continued with a smile, "Director, did our Le Yi do something immature to upset you?"

The smile on Tan Chao’s lips lessened, replaced by a coldness, "It’s my temple that’s too small, incapable of accommodating this big Buddha!"

After saying this, Tan Chao coldly stood up and left.

Jian Liangtong’s eyelashes fluttered as she pursed her lips, watching Tan Chao leave in a huff. She kind of grasped the situation in her mind.

Returning to the dressing room.

There was still only Zhang Le Yi in the dressing room. She sat in front of the vanity mirror, looking at her phone.

Upon hearing footsteps from behind, Zhang Le Yi lightly raised her head to glance back.

Seeing that it was Jian Liangtong, Zhang Le Yi turned her head disinterestedly, lowering it again to continue looking at her phone.

Jian Liangtong, without much expression, walked over, took the phone from Zhang Le Yi’s hand, and glanced at it.

Zhang Le Yi frowned impatiently, looking at Jian Liangtong, "Sister Tong, what’s the matter?"

Jian Liangtong tossed the phone on the table, looking at Zhang Le Yi, "What do you think?"

"How would I know?" Zhang Le Yi muttered, reaching out to grab her phone again.

"Le Yi, today I don’t intend to beat around the bush with you."

Jian Liangtong’s tone was calm, and her gaze towards Zhang Le Yi was equally steady, "You’re not suited for the entertainment industry, best to exit early and find something else to do."

Zhang Le Yi’s hand froze mid-air, her brows knitted tightly as she looked up at Jian Liangtong, "Sister Tong, what do you mean?"

"You’re still young; it’s not too late to do anything yet," Jian Liangtong said.

Zhang Le Yi inhaled, retracting her hand, "Sister Tong, did you hear some gossip?"

Jian Liangtong looked at her without speaking.

Zhang Le Yi clenched her fist, looking indignant, "These people are just snobs. They ignore me because I’m not famous, and aren’t serious when acting with me, deliberately making things difficult during scenes. Even the director, though I’ve been acting diligently, keeps saying ’cut’ and that he’s unsatisfied, making us redo it!

Yet other actors, who aren’t even as good as me, get it in one take. They’re targeting me on purpose. Why should I put up with them? Snobby bastards! Sooner or later, I’ll show them I won’t be a minor actor forever!"

Jian Liangtong frowned, "So? What did you do?"

"I, I didn’t do anything," Zhang Le Yi’s voice lowered, with noticeably less conviction than before.

"Didn’t do anything? What did you do?" Jian Liangtong’s eyes turned slightly severe, staring at her.

Zhang Le Yi clenched her fingers, her pupils darting around, not daring to meet Jian Liangtong’s eyes, "I accidentally saw the lead actress sneaking into the director’s room at night and not coming out for two or three hours..."

Jian Liangtong’s eyebrows twitched intensely, furrowing deeply, "Did you talk about it?"

"Yes."

Zhang Le Yi lowered her head, speaking sulkily, "The lead actress’s acting is really nothing to brag about. Every time we had scenes together, I felt like gouging my eyes out. What kind of acting was that? If she didn’t have something going on with the director, how could she be the lead actress?"

"Zhang Le Yi!" Jian Liangtong’s forehead veins bulged.

Zhang Le Yi was startled and looked fearfully at Jian Liangtong.

Jian Liangtong’s face was dark, "I used to think you just had low emotional intelligence. Now I realize, I really underestimated you. Not only is your EQ low, but your IQ too! Do you know that if I were the director, I’d kick you off the set immediately!"

"Sister Tong..."

"There’s only one road in front of you now. If you want to continue surviving in the entertainment industry, go with me right now and apologize to the director!"

"..." Zhang Le Yi’s face turned pale, biting her lip, she said to Jian Liangtong, "I won’t go. I’m not wrong, why should I apologize!"

"You’re not wrong? Without getting your facts straight, you ranted in front of the whole crew, and you still dare to say you’re not wrong!"

Jian Liangtong never tried communicating with someone as clueless as Zhang Le Yi before; having tried, she now knew how exasperating it was!

"I’m really not wrong! The lead actress and the director do have an unspeakable relationship, I..."

"Are you an idiot! The director and the lead actress are a couple, they’ve been together for five years! It’s an open secret in the entire entertainment industry!!"

Jian Liangtong was really so angry she lost her mind.

She used to only think Zhang Le Yi had low emotional intelligence, and now she really thought she was dumb!

Not just ordinarily dumb!

No matter what had been advised to her, she would promise nicely but didn’t take it to heart at all.

She acted entirely based on her mood.

No brains!

Initially, Jian Liangtong was just provoking her, claiming she wasn’t suited for the entertainment industry.

Now, she truly believed that with such a personality, she could never develop in the entertainment industry.

Sooner or later, she’d be smeared with no chance of turning things around!

Jian Liangtong took a deep breath, reaching out to press on her throbbing temple, "You decide yourself whether to apologize or not!"

"..."
