Ling Yuqing straight out named Guan Meiyi in the video, which led to a subtle mood change in the room. When people turned to look at Guan Meiyi again, their sympathy from earlier was replaced by astonishment and doubt.
Guan Meiyi was getting antsy in her seat. From the moment the video started, she realized that things had gone awry. What she didn’t expect was that Ling Yuqing would actually say her name.
People were not dumb. The dialogue in the video was so obvious that everyone got the idea that she and Ling Yuqing combined forces in smearing Ling Tianya.
Now, not only the Ruans were there to witness everything, the video was streamed online, which meant that everyone on the Internet had seen it and heard it…
There were also all the reporters, and Ruan Zeyan himself!
Guan Meiyi really panicked. For the first time in her life, she was completely at a loss. She subconsciously glanced at w.a.n.g Yazhi and Ruan Qishan who were sitting next to her.
w.a.n.g Yazhi obviously grasped what was going on. She looked back at Guan Meiyi with a complicated expression which comprised of shock, disappointment, and pity…
Ruan Qishan didn’t even look at Guan Meiyi. Instead, his eyes fell on Ling Tianya and he looked like he was pondered some things.
Guan Meiyi’s head was splitting. She glared at Ling Yuqing with rage and regret.
Ling Yuqing no longer cared about Guan Meiyi’s hateful look. Inside her head, there were only three words, “I am finished.” She didn’t even dare to look at Ling Tao. She didn’t have to look to know that Ling Tao was shocked and angry.
Ling Yuqing looked at Ling Tianya again, who finally opened her eyes and stared back at her with coldness and cynicism.
On the big screen, the video continued to play. Ling Yuqing pa.s.sed a USB drive to Zhang Ke and said, “Take this with you when the time comes.” It was the same USB drive that was playing right then, only the content was different.
Guan Jianlin and Ling Qi couldn’t take it anymore. They came there to accuse the b.i.t.c.h Ling Tianya, but what was happening instead?! The two stood up angrily and tried to stop the video from playing. They only took a few steps before getting blocked by Ruan Zeyan’s men.
Guan Jianlin’s face was gray. Despite the presence of Ruan Qishan, he shouted angrily at Ruan Zeyan, “Ruan Zeyan! Tell them to go away! I am your elder!”
Guan Jianlin’s voice hurt Ruan Zeyan’s ears like some squealing noise. He had been sitting leisurely that whole time, but finally stood up and said to Guan Jianlin, “Who did you say you were?”
Ruan Zeyan’s casual voice still managed to give Guan Jianlin a huge chill. Lips flapping, Guan Jianlin dared not to repeat what he said. All he could do was turn his head to look at Ruan Qishan, who was sitting like a mountain. “Qishan, say something!”
At that moment, Ruan Qishan had nothing to say. Originally, Guan Meiyi invited him and w.a.n.g Yazhi to attend the press conference and told them she would expose the true nature of Ling Tianya. They thought after seeing what kind of woman Ling Tianya actually was, Ruan Zeyan would give up the idea of marrying her.
Things had done a one-eighty instead. Ling Tianya not only proved that she was nothing like what the Internet had described, but also showcased her outstanding intelligence. In contrast, Guan Meiyi was exposed as someone who was plotting against Ling Tianya. In Ruan Qishan and w.a.n.g Yazhi’s minds, Guan Meiyi had always been elegant, kind, considerate, gentle, generous, graceful…A woman who was worthy of all those flattering words. That no longer seemed to be the case. At the very least, Guan Meiyi was not as smart as Ling Tianya, otherwise things would have turned out differently. Obviously, Ling Tianya had been in control of the whole situation from beginning to end. When everyone thought Ling Tianya’s fate was sealed, she effortlessly turned the whole thing around.
Having a brain was a good thing, but it seemed like Guan Meiyi forgot to grow one. No wonder Madam Ruan always called Guan Meiyi a faker; the old lady knew what she was talking about.
Faced with Ruan Qishan’s silence, Guan Jianlin couldn’t bear to stay another minute. Just as he was about to run off, the reporters besieged him. Was he kidding? They were not going to let go such an explosive story! It could be the end of the lovely image of movie star Guan Meiyi!
