140: A b*tch is coy.

A b*tch is coy.

Thus, with no other choice and without any rescuer, Yun Na remained standing there, her heart full of grievances, and listened to them endlessly humiliate her.1

Wait and see. Just wait and see, all of you! I'll remember tonight's humiliation; you'll pay for this one by one.

When I become famous one day, I'll exact vengeance a hundred—no, a thousand times to you all!

The entertainment reporters beside her were sympathetic.

This newbie has offended many seniors in the field even before she steps into the venue. Pitiful, indeed. However, as a newbie in the entertainment industry, one needs to know how to keep a low profile, or they risk stepping on the wrong toes.

Hence, no one came to her rescue.

Yang Mi held the highest status among those present. She was at the peak of her career after eight years in the entertainment industry, and no one dared to offend her.

"What's happening? Why is everyone crowding at the entrance?"

A male voice, husky and crisp, was heard from nearby.

Everyone turned to look and was surprised to see Li Jiuxian standing behind. He was wearing a handcrafted suit, with fine tailoring details, that made him look outstanding. His handsome face garnered many screams the moment he entered the venue.

Li Jiuxian was Huanyu's latest idol. He was highly popular with his intellectual persona and exceptional appearance. His outstanding qualities had landed him two big commercials and five teen drama series. Highly productive and resourceful, he was a teen idol greatly valued and promoted by Huanyu Entertainment.

Yun Na saw him looking at her pitifully humiliated self and looked at him imploringly, telling him with her puppy eyes that he was her last chance at getting out of this shameful situation; she looked adorable with her red-rimmed eyes.

He could not help but take pity on her. Looking at Yang Mi, he asked, "Sister Yang, why aren't you going in?"

He was on good terms with her. Both were from the same company and co-acted in a TV drama series with a high viewership. Rumors that both fell in love with each other afterward circulated and even became the hottest news in the capital for many months.

She replied, "This little b*tch is blocking my way. An ambitious newbie who is out to grab attention."

He gently smiled at her. "Sister Yang is so pretty tonight; all the attention will definitely be on you."

She liked what she heard and blushed at his compliment. She gushed, "Jiuxian, you look so smart tonight; you'll definitely be in the news tomorrow."

"Thank you for the compliment, Sister Yang! You know that the media is already waiting inside the venue. Don't pick a fight with a newcomer, or you'll be labeled as a bully if this leaks out. You'll lose more than you gain," he advised.

"Er, you are right," she agreed. As he smiled, she took his arm. Both then walked into the dining hall.

Yun Na watched with pounding heart as they walked away.

Seeing that the two had left, Tang Yu decided to leave as well. She snorted, gave the newcomer a warning look, and followed the pair into the hall.

Shortly after, He Lingxiang arrived.

Yun Na, who was waiting for him at the entrance, immediately approached him and hooked her arm through his as she coquettishly moaned, "Director He, you are finally here! I almost assumed you are going in without me!"
