“The only way is to start being invisible right now. Everyone’s attention is on Ming Jing; as long as you don’t jump around, no one will remember you. Let’s wait until this wave of attention passes.” The agent felt exasperated, as it was these impulsive newcomers who ruined the atmosphere in the entertainment industry.

“Why should I…?” Xiao Wenwen tried to argue, but her agent answered a phone call, and her face changed dramatically.

Xiao Wenwen instinctively felt that something bad was about to happen.

Indeed, her agent played a voice recording on WeChat. The voice was very familiar—it was from the night when Xiao Wenwen talked to her agent on the phone.

As for the content—it was about her being a bragging mistress and cursing the main wife for not giving up her position, saying that she would be torn apart by the public.

Xiao Wenwen lunged forward to snatch her agent’s phone, but her agent didn’t let her succeed, stepping back to avoid her, “What are you doing?”

“Delete it! Delete it! What’s wrong with the crew? How dare they edit my words out of context! I’m going to find the director, the producer! Are they not afraid of retribution in this industry for daring to offend me like this?”

“I told you before that your mouth is going to get you in trouble one day, but you wouldn’t listen. You’re just Zhou Nan’s mistress. There are plenty of young and beautiful girls out there for him to choose from. Don’t think you’re anything special. Moreover, Zhou Nan is not some big tycoon. There are plenty of more powerful people than him. Don’t think that being with him guarantees your safety. Only someone like Shen Zhou can protect you, but he has to be interested in you first.”

“This recording was sent to the company’s email by an anonymous person. It’s a warning. If you keep jumping around, they’ll expose the recording which won’t be as simple as just apologizing. As for Zhou Nan, he’s only a mud Buddha crossing the river, he can hardly protect himself. Can’t you understand that now?” The agent said, frustrated.

“They’re still being gentle with you, giving you a chance. Otherwise, the recording would’ve already been exposed. Do you know what the consequences would be then?”

The agent knew very well in her heart that this was giving face to the crew. After all, if Xiao Wenwen was involved in a scandal and boycott by the audience, her scenes would have to be cut entirely, causing significant problems for the crew.

Thus, the other party only warned her for now, not wanting to break off all contact just yet.

Xiao Wenwen collapsed onto the sofa, unwilling to let this go, “I’m just supposed to swallow my pride?”

“What else can you do? Is something wrong with your brain? Why do you have to pick on Ming Jing? Some people are born to be dazzling. Your jealousy and resentment won’t hurt them, only yourself.”

The agent didn’t want to waste her time educating her any longer. She had basically given up on Xiao Wenwen, who had no future prospects.

“Think about it yourself, don’t go online, get some sleep, and figure out what to do.” She left after saying that.

Xiao Wenwen opened her phone, it was two o’clock in the morning, but the internet was still buzzing.

—Ming Jing’s background exposed.

This headline caught Xiao Wenwen’s attention. Her agent had mentioned that Ming Jing was from a wealthy family in Jiangnan. She wanted to see if it was true.

Netizens had uncovered that Ming Jing was from Zhu Group, a publicly traded company in Jiangzhou. Its stock code, annual net profit, and corporate structure were all publicly available information. Zhu Group was a real estate company. Not long ago, Zhu Wentao, the president of Zhu Group, was caught in a debt crisis, causing huge losses to many stock investors and homeowners. During that time, Zhu Group was facing bankruptcy. It was the recently-returned heiress, Ming Jing, who took charge of the situation, appeasing the stockholders and signing cooperation agreements with Shen Zhou and Ye Group, eventually leading Zhu Group out of the crisis.

Photos surfaced online of Ming Jing and Shen Zhou signing the agreement together. In these photos, Ming Jing, a 16-year-old girl, appeared composed and confident as she faced the magnates.

This was no ordinary wealthy heiress. Being able to sit and talk with Shen Zhou meant that she was a heavyweight herself.

Now, Zhu Group had overcome the crisis brought on by Zhu Wentao and its stock price was steadily rising. With Ming Jing’s recent surge in popularity, the company’s entire stock line was flourishing, boasting a market value of over ten billion yuan.

In other words, as the chairman of Zhu Group, Ming Jing’s net worth was now over ten billion yuan.
