The Rebirth of a Diva

Episode 74

He stopped watching the news and focused on things himself.

That day, Sister Mai Na and her assistant, Wei Wei, accompanied her to the television station for a publicity photo shoot.

The beer-bellied responsible brewer politely spoke while rubbing his hands awkwardly. "I'm sorry, Sister Mai Na and Miss Ye. The shot has been cancelled, weren't you both informed by the staff member?"

"cancelled? Why?" sister Mai Na asked as she frowned.

"Yes ..." The person in charge glanced at Xia Ling as she pretended to be helpless. "The matter involving Miss Ye exploded. Given our reputation and audience, we've decided to find someone else for this, so …"

"Who is this?" Xia Ling cut it off coldly.

“Of course, this is Xiao Yu.” Covered in a suit and leather shoes, Chu Chen gracefully walked out of the recording studio confidently. She turned to the side, allowing a girl in a flower knitted dress to pass by, acting like a gentleman. Indeed, it was Xia Yu.

“We meet again, Ye Xingling.” Xia Yu was always meek and gentle in front of others, looking as pure as an angel. However, he could barely hide his arrogance and gloating as he let out a slight smile.

Xia Ling stepped forward.

At that moment, Xia Yu turned pale and retreated in fear, pulling Chu Chen's arm. Almost immediately, Chu Chen, his assistant, and his bodyguards formed a protective shield around Xia Yu, staring at Xia Ling coldly and threateningly, as if she was an enemy.

"Are you planning to hit him?" Chu Chen's cold voice rang throughout the corridor.

The passerby flashed a glance at Xia Ling, pointing a finger at her.

Once again, Xia Ling had underestimated the crafty slut and was placed in an unfortunate situation. He only wanted to settle matters calmly, yet Xia Yu could play the victim in a split second.

He almost lost his temper when Sister Mai Na protected him from the others.

"Chu Chen, publicly taking our photos after using underhanded means for publicity? I can sue you!"

"Please," Chu Chen replied politely.

"Let's go!" Sister Mai Na almost exploded in anger as she left with Xia Ling and Wei Wei in a hurry.

Back to the babysitter's van.

"Bettered, Sister Mai Na, holding your anger is not good for the body," Wei Wei said cautiously.

The anger faded from Sister Mai Na's face and was replaced with a cold, frozen look. “I'm not as angry as I see it, Wei Wei.” He sounded calm as he gazed towards the direction of the television station.

"What's? Then why are you …?" he asked, stunned.

“I behave like that so that we can be seen at the end of our rope, then they will lower their guard,” Sister Mai Na explained. "Only then can our follow-up plan run smoothly. But ..." He stopped and turned to Xia Ling. "Xiao Ling, what kind of anger did you just show? Why are you so easily hooked? What are you planning to do if I didn't just come in?"

"Slap her face," Xia Ling replied honestly.

Wei Wei was stunned. Why would Sister Xiao Ling dare to do that when she was already the talk in the city in such a bad way?

Troubled, Sister Mai Na rubbed her temples. Oh my God, who do you think this little girl is? It is one thing to be able to defend himself, but this nature. . . "You .. forget it, let's go to the next photo shoot," He stopped himself because he was too tired to continue.

Since Chu Chen had already taken a single shot from them, he would definitely not stop there. They were long-time partners in his previous life and he knew the way like the back of his palm. He is all or nothing. With that, he speculated that the other shoots had already been claimed by him. Given he is in the teeth of public criticism, public companies cannot wait to terminate their contracts with him.

"These people are too many! Even if Sister Xiao Ling did not support the public right now, which celebrity had not been criticized by the public? They can wait until the issue subsides, then release the footage. How could all of them leave him? How horrible they are! "

"What you say is true, but this time it's different. Diva, Xia Ling, get involved."

Xia Ling nodded in agreement. Not that she was narcissistic, but "Xia Ling" had been crowned as a goddess since her death. With his death, Xia Ling had become a legend and a representative of perfection. If anyone dared to speak ill of him, everyone would be behind them. Moreover, it seemed that this time he had hurt "the sickly sister of Xia Ling."

"Then, what should we do?" Wei Wei panicked.

"We have to go to the next place to see it," Xia Ling said. He had to personally confirm the situation even with speculation. He had planned to remember the people who had left him at the time he needed him. These people would not even get the slightest chance to work with him in the future when he gained popularity, even if they came to him crying and begging!

"Yes, let's go. I really want to know what they are going to say," Sister Mai Na said coldly.

Upon arrival at the second set, Sister Mai Na asked Xia Ling to remain in the car. She felt that Xia Ling, being a celebrity, should be treated with respect instead of being insulted and rejected by others and that it was the job of the manager and assistant for such miserable things.

Xia Ling watched silently, filled with gratitude.

Third company, fourth company. . .

A total of four companies, including two advertising agencies, have canceled the filming of "Ye Xingling". The two even went so far as to claim that they would go bankrupt because Ye Xingling was a failure of sales.

Sister Mai Na swallowed all the humiliation and returned to the nanny van as if nothing had happened. Smiling, he told Xia Ling that there would be more opportunities in the future. However, as a novice, Wei Wei could not hide her anger. His expression and slightly red eyes told Xia Ling what had happened.

Conscience, Xia Ling started to feel a little sad. It was one thing to suffer from the humiliation of others, but to involve others around him was another matter entirely.

When they arrived at Xia Ling's condo, Sister Mai Na remained unaffected by what had happened before. "I'm giving you a break. Rest well for a few days, things will get busier in the future" he said, smiling.

Xia Ling returned her smile and nodded before saying goodbye to her and Wei Wei.

When he reached his condo, he could no longer keep his facade. He became tired and filled with sadness.

Just as Xia Ling was about to turn on the lights, a deep and interesting sound gave her a surprise. "Hey, Beauty, it's only been a few days since I last saw you. It looks so different to you."

"Boss? What are you doing here?" he asked as he got a clear view of the man on the sofa.

Her tall and symmetrical body was leaning against the cloth sofa with Er Mao sleeping beside her feet. With her head tilted and a glass of red wine in her hands, she revealed her white and shiny teeth with a wide smile. "I've done my business in Manhattan, so I'm here to visit you. I brought you a bottle of red wine, some fruit and some small stuff."

In fact, he had deliberately shortened his journey after receiving Tan Ying's report. She was worried about him and wanted to be by his side during a difficult time. However, he did not tell the truth as it would be embarrassing to say those words.

“Bos, do whatever you want.” Li Lei had already treated his house as if it was his and he could not be bothered to complain anymore. "I'm going to go practice" he said as he walked past her confusedly towards the study.

He could no longer keep a happy face. All he wanted was to be alone and lick his wounds personally.

However, he said, "Come, I'll take you somewhere."
