Rebirth in Showbiz: How to Win the Showbiz Emperor's Heart?

Chapter 701: Chapter 701: Director Wang in Tears Every Day

When Bo Si was mentioned so blatantly, not only was Tong Yan impatient, but Director Wang was also quite displeased.

He hadn’t figured out how to announce this to the public yet. After all, a sudden cast change is very sensitive, and mishandling it could greatly affect the program.

Even with legitimate reasons, a foolproof plan needs to be in place.

So, the matter was kept tightly under wraps, and even the slightest rumor online was suppressed by Director Wang.

Now that Zhu Xiaoxiao brought it up in front of so many fans, didn’t she just stir up a hornet’s nest!

Director Wang was in a foul mood, resulting in many of Zhu Xiaoxiao’s scenes being cut, so by the time the show aired, she barely appeared, and Qi Yan was affected by proxy.

One might say Zhu Xiaoxiao was a fool; this matter had escalated to involve the entire program team, yet she still dared to mention it casually.

Tong Yan wasn’t affected; she could even understand why Xiaoxiao brought it up—just to get under her skin. And the follow-up was predictable, with accusations of it being her fault that Xiaoxiao was replaced.

Zhu Xiaoxiao noticed Tong Yan wasn’t responding, feeling a bit pleased, thinking she was at a loss for words. She took this as an opportunity to add more fuel to the fire, saying, "After all, the bleeding didn’t stop that night, and the next morning..."

╮(╯▽╰)╭, See, she wasn’t wrong.

She had seen through the hypocritical act.

The only way to deal with such people is to outdo them at their own game.

Tong Yan furrowed her brow, eyes full of drama, "Sisi’s foremost priority should be to recover her health. Can a role really be more important than her health?"

Zhu Xiaoxiao was left speechless. There’s no way she could say a role was more important. Eventually, she had to concede, "Of course, health is more important."

Tong Yan sighed, "That’s right. Sisi hasn’t been well since childhood, and this incident was an accident. Once she recovers, with her capabilities, what roles can’t she get, right, Xiao Xiao?"

This woman was cunning, subtly shifting all the blame onto Bo Si’s health with just a few words while completely distancing herself from the situation.

And Zhu Xiaoxiao had no choice but to respond.

Zhu Xiaoxiao nodded stiffly, "Yes."

Being forced to answer a question one doesn’t want to answer, what kind of experience is that?

Answer: A fate worse than death.

Tong Yan lamented for a while, "Because the role was suddenly changed, Director Wang has been heartbroken, crying every day. It’s been hard for him, and we’ve been constantly consoling him. He’s the soul of this variety show, handling many things we don’t even know about..."

Director Wang wore a wooden expression, saying nothing.

Damn, I’m glad you’re speaking on my behalf, but can you do it properly!

Crying every day? Are you sure you’re talking about me!

From wearing wigs to crying every day, thanks a lot.

By this time, Zhu Xiaoxiao didn’t know what else to say.

She had just said a few sentences, and there Tong Yan was, prattling on with a barrage of words. Knowing full well that Tong Yan was incorrect, she was at a loss for how to refute it.

Zhu Xiaoxiao felt utterly stifled!

Tong Yan glanced at her watch, exclaiming, "Oh, it’s so late. I should go buy groceries now. I won’t disturb the two of you. Come over for dinner if you’re free tonight; I’ll cook."

Originally, Tong Yan was just making a casual remark, but unexpectedly, when she opened the door and saw Zhu Xiaoxiao and Qi Yan standing outside, a torrent of emotions surged within her.

It was just damn unbelievable; she was just saying it in passing, but Xiaoxiao actually took it seriously.

Where’s your dignity?
