Chapter 849: The Group of Stars Along the Corridor

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Manager Li smiled bitterly in his heart. How could Xia Yu compare with the late Xia Ling?

At that time, Xia Ling was favored by Imperial Entertainment’s Big Boss Pei Ziheng and everyone in the industry knew that. There was no cap on the public relations fees spent on Xia Ling, and on financial reports, Big Boss Pei did not even mind at all. However, Xia Yu? Now, Xia Yu had already lost all of her special privileges and had the same budget as other artistes in the company. If her public relations fees were too high, she would be held accountable!

He smiled back at Reporter Wu and said, “Brother Wu, please be the bigger person and help me out. How can Xia Yu compare to the late Miss Xia Ling? How about you let her off today and when she becomes famous, you will definitely be heavily rewarded! How about... Ten thousand? No, twenty thousand?”

Compared to the price of Xia Ling’s photo, the price of Xia Yu’s photo was seriously dismal. But he knew that it couldn’t be any higher.

Reporter Wu pretended to sigh. “Twenty thousand... It’s still too...”

“Brother Wu, how about you do me a favor. Please?” Manager Li tried to coax him.

Not far away, behind Manager Li’s back, Reporter Wu’s colleagues appeared again and gave Reporter Wu the “ok” signal.

Thus, Reporter Wu smiled. “Since you are so sincere, Xiao Li, forget it. I will be a good person for once and sell the photo to you. I will call my agency now and make them delete the photo.”

“Thank you! Thank you!” Manager Li was extremely grateful.

Reporter Wu really made a call in front of him. “Lili, can you please go to our entertainment department’s email inbox, find the email I sent, and help me delete... What? You already published the photo? Why did you do it so fast? Ok... I understand.”

He hung up the phone and shrugged his shoulders. “Xiao Li, it’s unfortunate. I also don’t know why my agency was so fast, but they’ve already sent the photo to the newspaper. I can’t sell this photo to you anymore. I’m really sorry about that.”

Manager Li looked as if he were hit by lightning. He burst out. “How is that possible?”

Reporter Wu irresponsibly said, “It’s too bad. Perhaps the competition is too fierce nowadays and the editors who work overtime are more dedicated... It’s really a pity that I can’t help you.” After that, he patted Manager Li’s shoulder and walked away.

What a joke... How could he sell the photo to Manager Li?

Reporter Wu had been in the entertainment scene for many years and had stopped caring about hush money long ago. His priority was to compete against the chief correspondent and take his position to the next level! Every time he encountered valuable news, it was more meaningful to him than ten thousand yuan!

He was not that stupid.

Just now, when he heard Manager Li’s request, he immediately gave his colleagues a look and his colleagues immediately sent the news. It was a done deal.

Reporter Wu happily whistled.

Manager Li’s face turned ashen. With shaking hands, he opened the latest news page. Sure enough, he saw a real-time report on the Nebula Music Festival on the Internet with a picture of Xia Yu wearing a long dress and standing in the messy ground. The reporters and staff were talking amongst themselves and no one took notice of her.

Next to it there was also a striking title—

“Xia Yu was deliberately late to steal the limelight on the red carpet but it was an epic fail.”

The article described in detail about how pathetic Xia Yu was and even compared her to how dazzling Xia Ling was. On the news page, many fans criticized Xia Yu for being scheming and shameless. She was unaware of her limitations and wanted to take advantage of Xiao Ling. In the end, she turned herself into a joke.

The public loved gossip and was just gloating over her misfortune.

After a short few minutes, pages of replies under the post appeared, all degrading Xia Yu.

Finished. Everything was finished...

Manager Li was dejected. He could already imagine how angry Xia Yu would be when she saw this report. He did not dare to go back to Xia Yu’s side immediately. Gritting his teeth, he called her assistant and told her to serve Xia Yu well while he hid in a secluded place to smoke a cigarette.

Inside the Nebula Music Festival TV station.

Xia Ling arrived late. With the help of the staff, she slid off her red dress in the nick of time and changed into a shiny dress. Her hair was restyled, complimentary makeup was applied, and she stepped onto the live stage with crystal stilettos.

Along the corridor, she bumped into Xia Yu who had just entered.

Enemies were indeed bound to meet on a narrow road.

Xia Yu looked pathetic. As she did not have her manager’s protection, her initially gorgeous dress was now ruined after she squeezed out of the messy crowd. Several places were wrinkled and it looked really dirty. On the other hand, Xia Ling had an elegant makeover and was surrounded by celebrities, looking flawless.

Xia Yu’s eyes were filled with resentment, but very soon, she suppressed her emotions.

Lin Yunan was making way for Xia Ling. Curtly, he said to Xia Yu, “Please make way. We are in a hurry.” Before Xia Yu could move, Lin Yunan already quickly squeezed her to the side ruthlessly and the other staff members followed behind and carefully waited after Xia Ling.

“Miss Ling, please slow down. Let me help you carry your silk dress.”

“Miss Ling, be careful. Your crystal shoes have very thin heels.”

“Miss Ling, don’t move. This hair accessory is very fragile. You have to walk slowly...”

Everyone was showing concern for Xia Ling as if they were protecting a national treasure. In reality, this was also natural. Several makeup artists and stylist contributed to Xia Ling’s look today, and she was also a very important opening guest, so there was no room for mistakes. They all counted on her to make a living.

As they were focused on Xia Ling, no one noticed Xia Yu who was squeezed to the side.

However, Xia Ling suddenly stopped when she passed by Xia Yu. She glanced at Xia Yu and smiled faintly. “You were really late and didn’t even make it to steal my limelight, huh?”

Hearing the sarcasm in her voice, Xia Yu slightly bit her lip and lowered her head.

She hated Xia Ling, but on the surface, she had to resist showing it. Now, everyone around her was protecting Xia Ling, and if she showed even a little disrespect, she would be caught and severely dealt with.

She had just made a comeback and needed to think of a way to enter the Xia Family again. A little impatience would spoil great plans.

Xia Ling’s entourage did not stop for long and went in the direction of the live stage.

The live stage was brilliantly lit. According to custom, Nebula Music Festival always had the best male and female singers as guests to make a speech and sing during the opening ceremony every year.

The open guests this time were Xia Ling and Imperial Entertainment’s Zheng Chenhao.
