Chapter 209: Kneel and Apologize
The matter spread very quickly. Everyone was waiting for Mo Rao to come out and clarify. Lin Xing was very unpopular, so most people still believed Mo Rao.
Fu Ying had spoken up for Mo Rao, and his words were very convincing.
In less than half a day, Mo Yuan had already finished investigating the truth. The edited video was restored and clearly showed Lin Xing bullying Mo Rao.
Lin Xing didn’t expect the tables to turn so quickly. Her account had already been bombarded by all kinds of mean comments.
“Why are you so disgusting? You made yourself look like a victim, but you were the one who started the trouble!”
“Please leave the industry. Thank you and your family.”
“The entertainment industry is being ruined by people like you, who like to play tricks, steal the limelight, and pretend to be pitiful.”
“Everyone knows about how she bullied people in the past, right? She’ll never change.”
“As your former fan, I can only say that I was blind. In the past, I didn’t believe it when others said that you were a scheming person.”
Looking at the comments that were scolding her, Lin Xing was so frightened that she hid in a lounge and didn’t dare to go out. She still had a scene to film tonight, but she didn’t dare to go out and film.
Lin Xing’s manager also called and scolded, “Lin Xing, are you crazy? Who gave you the guts to provoke Mo Rao? If you don’t want to work in this industry anymore, just say it. Don’t drag me down with you!”
“Sister Sisi, you…” Lin Xing didn’t expect her manager, who usually treated her quite well, to scold her so fiercely. In a moment of desperation, she decided to continue lying.” How did I provoke Mo Rao? Is there any evidence to prove that I posted that video online? Perhaps someone with ulterior motives did it on purpose to sow discord! ”
“Then go investigate yourself and see who in the production team hates you so much. The company doesn’t want to handle your public relations anymore. Take care!”
After hanging up, Lin Xing was dumbfounded and started to regret making things difficult for Mo Rao!
Wasn’t Mo Rao just slightly prettier than her? Didn’t Mo Rao just have a few high-caliber men pursuing her? The jealousy in Lin Xing’s heart had never disappeared, but now that it threatened her acting career, she was afraid.
Now, she could only hope that the paparazzo she had bribed wouldn’t expose her. Thinking of this, she immediately dialed the paparazzo’s number and tried to bribe the paparazzo into being her scapegoat.
“Three million!” The paparazzi demanded an exorbitant price.
“Three million?! Why don’t you go rob someone?!” Lin Xing was shocked.
The paparazzi refused to compromise. Lin Xing could only grit her teeth and agree. Three million yuan. She would be able to earn it back if she continued to film in the future.
With the paparazzi backing her, Lin Xing immediately felt more assured. Coincidentally, someone came to call her, so she went out.
Everyone in the production team looked at Lin Xing strangely. Lin Xing pretended to be calm as she went straight to Mo Rao.
Mo Rao was memorizing her lines. When she saw Lin Xing, she only glanced at her coldly, then Mo Rao ignored her and continued to memorize her lines.
“Sister Rao Rao, I’m sorry.” Lin Xing pretended to cry as she admitted her mistake. “I saw the news online. I don’t know who deliberately tried to drive a wedge between us, but I definitely didn’t do it. Don’t blame me, okay?”
With that, she knelt down to Mo Rao.
This shocked everyone. Mo Rao was also a little surprised. Lin Xing was really going all out in order to clear her name.
“Since you said you didn’t do it, why are you kneeling? Why should I blame you?” Mo Rao looked at Lin Xing calmly. Her current expression actually resembled Fu Ying’s usual aloof look.
Perhaps after living together for a long time, she had unknowingly started to imitate Fu Ying’s mannerisms towards others.
Fu Ying watched from afar. He wanted to approach, but he was afraid that Mo Rao would leave.
Just now, he had been guarding the entrance of the lounge. However, Mo Rao called to tell Director Wang that she would only continue filming after Fu Ying left.
Fu Ying didn’t want to delay the filming or make Mo Rao unhappy, so he walked away.
Only then did Mo Rao come out.
“I-I was afraid that you would be misled by someone with ulterior motives.” Lin Xing wiped her tears as she said in a choked voice.
“Lin Xing, if you don’t want anyone to know, don’t do it. If it really has nothing to do with you, you don’t have to be so afraid and nervous. If you did it, it’s useless even if you kneel.” Mo Rao didn’t want her mood to be ruined by Lin Xing, so she stood up and said to Director Wang, “Director Wang, can we start filming?”
Director Wang was completely subservient to Fu Ying now, since Fu Ying was the main investor of this movie.
