Chapter 124 - Chapter 124: Hotel Meetup
“Of course not. You have my endless gratitude. But how did you know that two of them tried to pull one on me?” Luo Ying was a little puzzled. She had not asked Xiao Ting to tell Lu Zhao about this.
“Xiao Ting works for me. It’s a given for him to report every single thing to me.” Lu Zhao reached out and ruffled Luo Ying’s hair. “Don’t keep things to yourself in the future. You’ll only keep me worried.”
“I got it.” Luo Ying buried her face in Lu Zhao’s arms.
Lin Su’s career as he knew it should be finished.
Because of this scandal, all the employees of Lin Su’s company were called back for an emergency meeting. The artistes were also present.
When Luo Ying and Chi Tong arrived at the meeting room, they saw Su Ran’s ashen face.
Su Ran glared at Luo Ying with hatred.
Luo Ying looked away and ignored Su Ran’s gaze.
Su Ran had never once stopped being suspicious of her. Now that this had happened, she knew that words would be impossible to reach the other woman. On top of that, Su Ran’s reputation and career had also taken a hit.
Su Ran walked over to Luo Ying, determined to get her attention.
Before she could say anything to Luo Ying, Luo Ying had already stood up and walked to the other side.
At that moment, the door of the meeting room was opened. Lin Su stood outside.
The dark circles under Lin Su’s eyes almost reached his mouth. It looked like he had not slept all night to deal with this matter.
In their world, the netizens formed a hive-mind entity. Their voice was their gods. When those gods lose their faith in you, there was no place left to run to.
The public relations team had spent an entire night trying to remove the stains on the internet, but there was no end to it.
The entire nation already had their eyes on him and his company.
“Something has happened recently. I’m sure everyone has seen the trending news. I will try my best to protect the interests of all my artistes and friends, but I hope that no one will think anv less of the company because of this.” Lin Su’s voice was slow and sounded a little old.
“What right do you have to say that? Do you know that the two endorsements I’ve taken on recently have been canceled because of you? How could you have the gall to say that?” An older and more experienced artiste, Mei Lu, spoke up.
In the short term, they would not encounter any major problems.
However, this scandal would soon be synonymous with his company’s name. Advertisers and investors would all have opinions about the artistes because of this issue.
The artists of such companies were also at greater risk. Many advertisers would try to avoid working with artists from such companies.
Lin Su rubbed his tightly furrowed brows. “I will pay out of my own pocket to protect everyone’s interests. This incident is purely a misunderstanding. I will speak with Luo Wan later to prove my innocence.”
“How are you going to prove your innocence? I think you might as well marry Luo Wan. That way, your relationship with her can be considered legitimate. We’ve seen how you treated Ms. Su Ran and how you created a scandal with her,” Mei Lu said sarcastically.
She had not planned to renew the contract this year, and Lin Su’s incident gave her a good reason.
“It’s written in the contract that we have to end our cooperation if there are any scandals involving either party. What’s wrong? Are you going to pretend such a clause doesn’t exist?” Mei Lu asked aggressively.
“That’s right, Mr. Lin. Your scandal might get more people caught up in this. I think you should stop struggling and just pay the compensation and terminate the contract,” said another artist.
“I’m sure you all remember how the Lin Group treated you in the past. Is a single scandal all that it takes to expose your disloyalty? After all, the resources that the Lin Group gave you were the best in the industry.” Su Ran spoke up. She could not bear to see Lin Su being put in a difficult position.
“Besides, I won’t leave. I’ll stay here and help the Lin Family solve their crisis.” Su Ran looked very determined, and her eyes were shining. “Lin Su has done no wrong.”
“Sure, you can say that. Do you have any evidence? Didn’t something happen between him and Luo Wan at the hotel yesterday? Was it just a simple social call at the hotel?” Luo Ying said coldly..
