Chapter 2017 - 2027: Dog Eat Dog
A bucket of water followed by another bucket of water, pouring down incessantly.
Lisa and the Director standing in the center of the scene are in a mess with nowhere to escape.
The staff on-site only see the two being washed away into a shadow in the ice water rain curtain, looking miserable, completely different from their arrogant demeanor just now.
The Director finally couldn’t hold on first, admitting defeat in the ice water, "Young Master Si, I was wrong, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have treated Miss Lin that way just now."
"Young Master Si, I admit I was wrong, I won’t dare anymore, please let me go, I can’t take it anymore."
He truly couldn’t take it anymore; if he continued standing there being drenched, he suspected his muscles would soon become necrotic.
"I was wrong, Young Master Si, it wasn’t intentional. It was Lisa, she threatened me with President Zhou to help her. I was forced."
"I was wrong, I won’t dare anymore, I won’t dare ever again in the future."
"Young Master Si, Young Master Si..." Every word the Director said got ice water poured into his mouth, forcing him to swallow several mouthfuls, leaving his face bruised by the ice cubes.
Si Chen finally responded to him.
Making a gesture to pause, the ice water stopped.
The Director’s legs became weak, almost sitting on the ground, he whispered hoarsely with a pale face, "Young Master Si, I was wrong, I really was wrong. Please, let me go just this once. I didn’t know, it was this woman, she said you were already tired of Miss Lin. She even threatened me with President Zhou, saying if I didn’t help, she would make it impossible for me to stay in the entertainment circle. I had no choice, I’m just an up-and-coming director, finally getting this chance to shoot an advertisement, I didn’t dare offend her. She’s President Zhou’s lover, if she really asks President Zhou to replace me, I’d lose this opportunity to shoot the advertisement. I agreed to help her design against Miss Lin to not lose this chance."
"I didn’t know at first that she would add ice cubes into the bucket, I thought she just wanted to drench Miss Lin with some cold water. She called later for me to add ice cubes, only then did I."
The Director now, to protect himself, pushed everything onto Lisa’s shoulders, racking his brain, "Right. Young Master Si, she just said in the makeup room she wanted to ban Miss Lin."
"Why don’t you say you also wanted to impose hidden rules on Lin Anxin?" Lisa wasn’t someone to be trifled with, she immediately retaliated against him.
The moment the hidden rule was mentioned, the Director noticeably felt a chill down his neck.
He immediately leaped forward, slapped Lisa, and said, "You are slandering me! I never said that! It was you who said it! You wanted to force Miss Lin to the point of having no choice but to take the hidden rule route, I said nothing!"
"I have no personal grudge against Miss Lin, unlike you, always feeling that the Best Actress Award Miss Lin won before was stolen from you. If it wasn’t for Miss Lin, that Best Actress Award would have been yours. Did you or did you not say that yourself?"
"I didn’t say that, I only said that I was also nominated for the Best Actress Award at that time."
"You just feel Miss Lin stole your award, hence the grudge, thinking Miss Lin and Young Master Si broke up, looking for an opportunity to set Miss Lin up."
The Director and Lisa went back and forth, neither willing to take the blame for the mistakes themselves.
When men start to gossip, they are far more relentless than women.
One sentence after another, spilling all of Lisa’s untold secrets.
Like how Lisa made it step by step to today’s position, who she was involved with, everything was revealed!
