Chapter 801 Firm stance
A storm hit the next day. Not a tsunami along the sea shore or a violent cyclone in the sea but a hurricane-like deadly force that was wildly tearing through its way in the social media.
A woman in her late thirties walked with her high heels clicking against the floor as she made her way towards the office. Whispers, murmurs and gossip reached her ears but she looked unfazed to all of them.
Opening the door, she came face to face with the President of the Stellar Entertainment Agency. He wasn't the only one in the office. A man of a similar age as her had taken a seat opposite him. Sun Jiang took the other seat.
"Yes, President Ye," she calmly said. "I am here."
President Ye's mouth twitched. "You are looking as if the storm has hit somewhere else and has nothing to do with the actor you are managing."
"It doesn't."
The other man, Qiao Kang, looked stunned. "Have you seen the photos circling around?"
"Yes, I have."
"And?"
"And what?"
"Oh come on, Sun Jiang. You cannot act so ignorant!"
Frustrated, he opened all the pictures on his tab that were going viral more and more every passing second. Sun Jiang didn't look at it because she already knew what was in them.
"Zhu Chyou has been seen on a date with the heir of the Gu Corps, Gu Yating," he pointed at the pictures. "First, they were in the club. Then they went to an ice cream parlor and from there, they enjoyed the scenic beauty of the fireworks on a lakeside. Just look at this last picture when they are facing each other."
"Are you seriously judging my actor's capabilities?"
"I am just pointing out the mindset. Chyou never had any problems with Cheng Yin's friendships nor was he ever accused of anything by any side of fans. So people shouldn't be too quick to judge Chyou either."
Qiao Kang looked helplessly at President Ye. "Only you can bring some sense into this woman, President. She isn't understanding the gravity of this situation."
President Ye said, "Sun Jiang. Your points make valid sense but unfortunately, that's not how the world is looking at things."
"Then we need to change that. My artist, Zhu Chyou, won't be giving any press conference."
Qiao Kang was beyond outraged. "This concerns Stellar and Yin's reputation! Of course, Zhu Chyou will have to come forward and clarify the misunderstandings. Deny all the twisted meanings that everybody is thinking."
Sun Jiang kept her stance firm. "Chyou isn't guilty of anything so there won't be any press conference. If we are forced to do that then Chyou and I will quit the agency. And no way Stellar company can afford to let go of the Queen," she jeered.
"You...-"
"In fact, it would be so heartwarming if Cheng Yin comes forward and denies all the allegations. It's his fans that are causing chaos and ruckus so it only makes sense if he shuts them up."
"You cannot be serious."
"I dead am."
"Why should Yin scramble over the mess that Zhu Chyou has created?" His expression twisted.
Her eyes narrowed and she let out a cold smile. She unlocked her phone and displayed a picture to them, keeping her phone at the center.
"If Chyou can be such a wonderful girlfriend to accept her drug addict boyfriend and to be even helping him in every possible way for getting him out of his addiction then certainly, Cheng Yin can be equally a wonderful boyfriend who shows a stellar trust in his girlfriend, right? Or is it that the responsibility of their relationship lies only with Chyou?"
