Chapter 278: Disappointment
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Guan Yun threw away everything she could throw. After venting her emotions, she looked up and saw Hai Xi looking at her nervously. When she met her eyes, Hai Xi immediately looked away like a sneaky mouse.
Seeing Hai Xi like this, Guan Yun’s suppressed anger rose again.
Previously, when the company said that Ye Xuan wanted to spend some time and energy to take care of another female artist, although Guan Yun was dissatisfied, she did not take it too seriously. She knew that it was difficult for her to advance in the international film industry now. A capable manager like Ye Xuan could completely be in charge of another artist.
At that time, Guan Yun did not expect Ye Xuan to leave her one day.
In Guan Yun’s opinion, she was the company’s top female artist, and no matter how much potential that female celebrity called Lu Zhen in the country had, she could not be compared to her. The company would definitely still lean towards her, and Ye Xuan’s work would definitely always be dominated by her.
However, what shocked and angered Guan Yun was that a few days ago, the company actually let Ye Xuan be Lu Zhen’s full-time manager and sent her a manager who was far inferior to Ye Xuan in terms of business ability.
On the day Ye Xuan left, Guan Yun bought an exquisite gift for Ye Xuan and even personally sent her to the airport. She had always maintained an elegant and dignified temperament, showing her magnanimity and nonchalance.
It was not until Ye Xuan left that Guan Yun, who was standing in the hall, clenched her fists tightly. Her long nails almost pierced through her skin.
But even then, Guan Yun did not lose control. She knew that this was the cruelty of the industry. There would always be countless new people waiting to replace you. She was no longer young, so the company naturally had to nurture a new star.
Having been in the industry for so many years, Guan Yun understood these principles better than anyone else. She just did not expect to be abandoned so quickly. She had already reached this height, but it was actually not enough for everyone to look up to her and praise her.
However, these were not the reasons why Guan Yun was completely furious today.
What really angered her was that she only found out today that the company had actually given Lu Zhen the chance to fight for the role of an Asian in Samir’s new movie!
When she heard the news, Guan Yun felt her vision go dark and her blood almost stopped flowing. She was stunned for more than ten seconds and could not hear what the other party was saying on the phone.
It wasn’t until the company executive called her name a few times that she came back to her senses. With a trembling hand, she placed it on her knee and grabbed her dress fiercely, causing the smooth fabric of the dress to crease abruptly.
“Continue asking around. Tell me if there’s any news.” Guan Yun’s voice was tense and stiff.
“Okay, I understand. That’s probably what happened. I’m not too sure about the specifics. They keep it a secret very strictly. Yunyun, you know that I’ve always supported you.”
The other party’s tone was filled with a hint of flattery and ambiguity. Guan Yun frowned in disgust and said a few pleasant words to brush the other party off. Then, she quickly hung up.
Guan Yun was glad that she still had some connections in the company. Otherwise, she did not know when she would be able to get this news.
Perhaps when Lu Zhen joined Samir’s production team, she would be like a clown and find out that she was the pitiful person who had been abandoned by the company.
After hanging up, Guan Yun’s entire body turned cold, as if a snowstorm had poured in.
According to the higher-ups of the company, this matter was planned by Song Jia and Ye Xuan. They were also the ones who found out that Samir’s new role was in the casting. This made Guan Yun even more furious.
It was fine if it was Song Jia as she was not familiar with him. However, Ye Xuan actually hid this news. She actually completely changed from her camp to the camp of that female artist called Lu Zhen so quickly?
All these years, Ye Xuan and Guan Yun had worked hard together from the country to overseas. At the most difficult time, the two of them did not sleep for three to four days.
For a period of time, because Guan Yun was under too much pressure, she had psychological problems. It was Ye Xuan who accompanied her to see one psychiatrist after another, urging her to take medicine, do treatment, and encourage her.
Could it be that Ye Xuan had forgotten all of this? Had she betrayed her so quickly? Guan Yun thought that her heart was hard enough, but when she thought of the past, she still felt sad and heartbroken. Then, her heart was filled with intense hatred.
Guan Yun sat on the sofa and looked at the mess on the ground. She glanced at Hai Xi coldly.. “Have you finished watching the show? Are you waiting for me to clean up for you?”
