Falling in Love With My Arranged-Marriage Husband-Chapter 316 - 290: What Will She Do in the Future?

After returning home, it was then that Lian Yun received a call from her agent.

There was no concern, no apology, just a relentless scolding, thinking her incompetent and having brought significant trouble for both her and the company.

Hearing those harsh words, Lian Yun could almost see the agent’s malevolent and domineering face. This agent’s reputation in the circle was just so-so, her abilities not matching up to her arrogance. Therefore, she could only vent her frustrations on the artists under her charge.

But, Lian Yun was the most profitable one among her roster of artists, perhaps only a step away from stardom. Yet because the agent only saw immediate gains and was short-sighted, she had the thought of making Lian Yun accompany Director Zhao for drinks.

Now Lian Yun thought about it, she feared the agent had secretly taken some kickbacks.

Lian Yun placed her phone on the coffee table, herself slumped into the small sofa, and only after the other party finished speaking did she lazily open her mouth.

"I want to hold a press conference tomorrow."

In the past, with Lian Yun’s status, hardly any media would bother to attend her press conference. But not now, this issue involved Su Ge.

The agent’s plan was to capitalize on the current heat and, of course, meant to use Su Ge’s name.

Naturally, the issue of Director Zhao wouldn’t be mentioned.

"Little Yun, I’ve already found a reason for you to give for going to the police station. I’ve sent it to your phone. Memorize it, and say that at tomorrow morning’s press conference."

Lian Yun picked up her phone and after reading the message, snorted coldly.

They really can make up anything. She’s been an only child for twenty years, how could she not know she suddenly had a brother?

Other marketing campaigns were too pricey for her, yet this cheap tactic they did pick up smoothly. Although Lian Yun was young, it didn’t mean she understood nothing. She viewed some things very lightly.

She probably won’t be able to stay at this company much longer.

Lian Yun glanced at her savings in the bank account, cupped her face, and sighed helplessly.

It was a blessing the company was small, a blessing that she had been cautious when signing the contract; the penalty for breaking it was something she could afford.

But it seemed that her salary over the past two years, along with her investment income, was going to be for naught.

After hanging up the phone, Lian Yun’s mind was made up.

She no longer wanted to stay at this company, where the upper management lacked vision, the company didn’t have good resources, the agent’s business capabilities were poor, and moreover... it was riddled with deceitful practices.

That night, Lian Yun barely slept.

What consequences would this decision bring? Arguing with the company, breaching the contract, paying the penalty – perhaps because of this incident, the shows that were broadcasting and awaiting release might spark some interest, but who knows what the comments will be?

Perhaps this was the end of her acting career.

Well, so be it. She entered this circle just to make money. If she had to leave it behind, then she would just focus on her studies.

In the early morning, looking at the trending searches, Lian Yun’s heart filled with guilt.

It was all because of her that Ling Yuxuan and Su Ge were dragged into this.

Su Ge...

Wait, the media and the paparazzi supposedly didn’t expose anything yet last night when she returned home, so how did the agent know that Su Ge was at the police station too?

She was too exhausted yesterday to notice anything strange.

She knew all too well the circle’s obsession with sensational news; being spotted at the police station would definitely cause a lot of speculation, especially with so many people at the bar.

With so many people around, who knows?

Deep down, she had resigned herself to the fact that she was going to take a fall this time, which is why when the agent called, she was ready for a storm.

She didn’t dwell on why the agent had so readily agreed to the press conference.

It was clear she already knew what would happen this morning.

Lian Yun snorted coldly, look, this Black Water Company, Black Water Agent, scheming even against their own artist.

With this thought, Lian Yun’s resolve was even more firm.

All she hoped now was that the scandal she would release might draw enough attention to overshadow Su Ge’s trending topic.

....

So that’s why Ling Yuxuan is now seeing these messages on his phone.

"Lian Yun exposes a certain director’s casting couch practices"

"Lian Yun goes head-to-head with the company"

"Lian Yun breaches contract"

"How does the company see its artists for the sake of profit?"

"How dark and deep are the waters of the entertainment industry?"

...

Lian Yun didn’t offer any so-called explanations at the press conference; the message that her agent sent her, she read and then deleted. Among people her age in the industry, Lian Yun is one of the few who are clear-headed.

Last night when she went to the bar, she left behind a saying, and placed a recording pen in her bag. Of course, if she thought to use a recording pen this time, she would have used it at other times as well.

What she holds in her hands is not just evidence of last night’s despicable act.

She also has the company’s dark secrets.

However, Lian Yun didn’t expose these things right from the start, but rather accused the company’s inaction and took the initiative to terminate the contract instead.

Evidently, this turn of events was unexpected by her agent, her company, and even more so by the journalists, who had never anticipated such a huge scoop.

The scene immediately became chaotic. After she had spoken, Lian Yun nodded to thank everyone, didn’t answer the reporters’ questions, and even before her agent could react, she had already run off the stage.

You see, this company’s vigilance in handling affairs is just this much, actually letting Lian Yun speak her mind and then letting her get away.

Almost within ten minutes of Lian Yun ending the press conference, this event hit the trending search list, and by the time Ling Yuxuan saw it, it was already half an hour later.

There were videos of the press conference online, actually quite short, just a few minutes.

But Ling Yuxuan found it exceptionally hard to watch.

The young girl was calm, her face showing no trace of confusion, revealing Director Zhao’s ugly behavior last night with each word, speaking as if she were a bystander.

So that’s how her company treated her.

How much did such a young girl endure behind the scenes all by herself?

The more Ling Yuxuan watched, the more silent he became, which was completely unlike his own temperament.

Ji Sang was frightened by Ling Yuxuan’s demeanor.

"What’s wrong? What exactly happened?"

Why would Lian Yun show up out of the blue?

And for what reason?

"She exposed the incident from last night and has broken with the company."

Ji Sang furrowed his brows.

"Why would she do that?"

But right after asking, a thought crossed Ji Sang’s mind.

By placing herself under the public eye like this, could Lian Yun be trying to suppress Su Ge’s trending search?

The gossip in the entertainment industry is far juicier than in the modeling or fashion industries.

And once Han City takes measures, it would be much harder for Netizens to dig up Su Ge’s affairs. Now that there is ready-made gossip available, they would not let it go uneaten.

But by doing this, isn’t Lian Yun completely falling out with the company?

What is she going to do next?

What about her acting career?

Thinking about this, Ji Sang’s brows were already deeply furrowed.

Ling Yuxuan started to call Lian Yun’s phone, only to receive a message that the phone was switched off.
