At this point, Lin Mier seemed overwhelmed by sorrow and couldn’t continue speaking.
She turned away, wiping her tears incessantly.
Once she had composed herself, she continued to face the camera.
“But I never expected that Senior Xia would actually…
Yesterday, when I saw her being ostracized and even Director Xu rejected her for a stunt double role, I felt pity for her and went out of my way to help her secure the role.
I sincerely wanted to help Senior Xia, but who knew… who could have known…”
Now that’s a skilled way to put it!
Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.
On one hand, she’s proclaiming her trust in Xia Weibao; on the other, she’s dragging up all her past scandals!
Not only is she playing up her own innocent persona, but she’s also ruthlessly stepping on Xia Weibao!
Suggesting that Xia Weibao has a history of sketchy behavior and that sleeping with Xu Jiayang is nothing out of the ordinary for her!
The reporters latched onto the story immediately.
Instantly, they were abuzz with excitement!
“Miss Lin, are you suggesting that Xia Weibao was ungrateful? That you helped her get the stunt double role, and she ended up stealing your lead role?”
“Miss Lin, according to what you’ve said, Xia Weibao only managed to connect with Xu Jiayang because of you, but now she’s used you as a stepping stone, hasn’t she?”
“Miss Lin…”
Lin Mier lifted her head, her eyes brimming with tears, her expression a mix of defiance and disappointment, as if she was frustrated with herself for not being tougher.
“Because of my remarkable looks, ever since my debut, I’ve been called ‘Xiao Weibao,’ and I used to take pride in that title, because she was my idol!
But now, Senior Xia has truly let me down, and I am ashamed of it!
This kind of person, who rises through the ranks on her body and doesn’t value proper morals, is not worth my emulation!
From now on, I won’t be anyone else’s shadow; I am my own person, the unique Lin Mier!”
Her resounding declaration won a round of applause.
Soon enough, the topic #XiaWeibaoUngrateful went viral, racing to the top of the trending list.
Sitting in the nanny van, Lin Mier browsed through a heap of sympathetic comments on her Weibo. Then, looking at Xia Weibao’s account flooded with scathing comments, she felt somewhat relieved.
“Dare to take my role? See how you die!”
Her expression was sinister, filled with the thrill of revenge.
Thinking she could turn the tables just by snatching my role?
No chance!
“Mier, your performance just now was good, preemptive. If the media found out your role was stolen because you were inferior to Xia Weibao, all your years of hard work would be in vain.
Now, by biting back first, it’s Xia Weibao who’s in a reactive position.”
Lin Mier sneered, “What is Xia Weibao, anyway? A has-been queen of film, still dreaming of a comeback? Watch how I play her to her end!”
“Although we’re currently in the lead, you can’t afford to be negligent. You need to act the part of the wronged party these next few days well, using fan outrage to drive Xia Weibao out of the industry!”
Lin Mier glanced at him sidelong, “As if I need you to tell me that.”
Xu Jiayang silently pulled a bottle of essential balm out of the drawer, needing to calm down first.
Lv Gang and Sister Tong remained silent; with the situation as it was, there was no way to clear Xia Weibao’s name.
The smear against Xia Weibao was too severe, and when added to Xu Jiayang’s own dark past, any explanation would be seen as a desperate cover-up.
It would backfire.
While everyone else remained silent, Xia Weibao suddenly spoke up.
“Since we can’t clear the name, then let’s not clear it. Let them talk.”
Instantly, several pairs of eyes shot toward her.
Leng Yan was irate, tugging at his tie, “Not clear your name? Do you have any idea what kind of impact this is having on our company?”
