Chapter 1419: I Am Du Lingyang
Yang Weiyi was stunned, feeling like something was stuck in her throat.
Su Manman spoke so casually. “She said she was afraid that her daughter would worry, so she always told her she has a sumptuous meal at the hospital! This mother had found out what kind of life her daughter has been leading in order to pay for her medical fees and said she would rather die than drag her daughter down at such a beautiful age. Therefore, she wanted to give up on the treatment...”
Upon hearing this, Yang Weiyi burst into tears. She didn’t know that her mother actually knew about her situation.
“Yang Weiyi, this is the reason I hired you as my makeup artist and why I’m paying you thrice as high a salary as the others in your profession. This way, you’d have more time to accompany your mother and be able to pay for her medical expenses!” Su Manman gave Yang Weiyi a serious look. “Do you think anyone would pay you this kind of salary just because you had worked for a former movie queen?”
Yang Weiyi bit her lower lip and couldn’t deny that she had really thought that way.
Yang Weiyi shook her head.
“What I want to know now is when did you get together with Meng Yuqiao?” Su Manman asked again. “What kind of things have you done for her? Tell me only if you want to tell me. I won’t force you if you don’t! Don’t worry... because of your mother’s situation, I won’t fire you!”
Yang Weiyi’s throat was choked up. After a long while, she calmed down and said, “Just once. I met Meng Yuqiao just once. She came to me and asked me to make things difficult for you. She said you were imitating Sister Mingzhu’s habits and asked me to write these things into an online post for her, and I don’t have to care about the rest! When I asked why she wanted to harm you, she said because she couldn’t stand you. That was how we came to an agreement...”
“Were you conspiring with Meng Yuqiao because she was Jiang Mingzhu’s friend?”
Yang Weiyi shook her head vigorously. “No, she was never Sister Mingzhu’s friend! She was just using Sister Mingzhu’s name to climb up the social ladder!”
Yang Weiyi’s words were sincere when she said this, so Su Manman believed what Yang Weiyi said previously.
After looking at Yang Weiyi for a long time, Su Manman said, “Remove my makeup!”
Yang Weiyi carefully removed Su Manman’s makeup.
“Thud thud thud—”
After knocking on the door, Dong Dong came inside. “Manman... Du Lingyang wants to see you and asks if it’s convenient for him to come in now.”
Du Lingyang was Jiang Mingzhu’s ex-boyfriend. Yang Weiyi disliked Du Lingyang very much, but after what happened earlier, she didn’t dare to say anything to Su Manman.
“No, not convenient!” Su Manman rejected without hesitation.
“Alright!” Dong Dong closed the dressing room door and went to pass on the message to Du Lingyang.
However, Du Lingyang was persistent. After Su Manman removed her makeup, applied sunscreen on her skin, and was about to leave the filming set, her phone vibrated. She received a message from an unknown number.
[186xxxxxx3349: Hello, Manman. I’m Du Lingyang. I’m very sorry for the damage that Meng Yuqiao caused you. I want to treat you to a meal and formally apologize to you. Is that okay?]
Su Manman’s brows twitched. After a moment of silence, she prepared to reply.
Yang Weiyi stopped looked down to pack her things.
[Su Manman: There’s no need for that. I was only revealing the truth, so I won’t accept any apologies! One more thing, I don’t like you investigating my phone number in private. This offends me!]
After replying to Du Lingyang’s message, Su Manman changed her slippers into her high heels, put on her bag and sunglasses, and walked to the door. She then said to Yang Weiyi, “Go to the hospital and accompany your mother. After I finish auditioning for the new script, I’ll contact you to assist me in the new production!”
Yang Weiyi didn’t expect Su Manman would really keep her after what she had done. She stood rooted to the ground with the makeup remover in her hand, not moving at all.
Dong Dong was already waiting for Su Manman outside. When she saw her come out, she said to her, “I’ve already made an appointment with the beauty salon. After that, we’ll be going home in the afternoon to eat with Grandma!”
“Did you record the thing with Meng Yuqiao just now?” Su Manman asked.
“Yes. I’ve already sent the recording to Brother Jie!” Dong dong said.
Su Manman nodded in approval. Given how smart Tu Jie was, he should know what to do after receiving the recording.
“But Manman!” Dong Dong hesitated for a moment before saying, “I also recorded your conversation with Yang Weiyi. But I’m not sure if I should give it to Brother Jie too!”
Su Manman was stunned. “Who told you to record it?”
“I just overheard your question to Yang Weiyi... and I felt that this person was too much! So I wanted to expose her too. But in the end, I felt that Yang Weiyi was too pitiful, so I didn’t send the recording to Brother Jie. I wanted you to decide!”
“Then don’t send it!” Su Manman said without hesitation.
Dong Dong nodded. She liked her boss even more because her boss was so cool and considerate.
Perhaps it was Meng Yuqiao who had arranged for reporters to wait at the entrance of the filming set to ambush Su Manman...
She just hadn’t expected that Su Manman would have an army of bodyguards at the filming location today. It was too late for those reporters to disperse. After all, the reporters had already caught wind of what was going on online. They all wanted to be the one reporting the story and increase their viewership rating.
The moment Su Manman emerged from the door, all the entertainment reporters rushed up to her like a swarm of flies upon smelling meat. Thankfully, Su Manman’s bodyguards were by her side all along, protecting and keeping her away from the reporters.
“Miss Su Manman, there is a detailed post about you imitating the late Jiang Mingzhu. Do you have anything to say about this?”
Su Manman didn’t respond and only walked into the car with her bodyguards protecting her.
“Miss Su Manman, I heard that you disrespected your senior on the set. What do you have to say to Meng Yuqiao?”
Upon hearing this, Su Manman, who was about to get into the car, paused in her steps and turned around to face the reporter. She took off her sunglasses and smiled as she said, “What do you mean by saying I disrespected Senior Meng Yuqiao? I merely told the truth and exposed her many fake accounts when she infiltrated Jiang Mingzhu’s fan club and incited Jiang Mingzhu’s fans to attack me. I don’t respect a senior just because they’re older and have been in the industry longer. When I respect a senior, it’s because they are worthy of my respect. Senior Meng Yuqiao, I hope that you will take time to learn the meaning behind the saying, ‘the dead are the greatest’ when suppressing the newbies!”
Su Manman then smiled and added, “Sorry, I’m quite straightforward...”
“Also, since I’m already answering your question, I’ll also answer the other reporter, who asked whether I’m imitating Senior Jiang Mingzhu...” Su Manman repeated her words to Yang Weiyi before. “Firstly, I respect Senior Jiang Mingzhu. Everyone in the entertainment industry knows how Senior Jiang Mingzhu’s fans dislike others who imitate Senior Jiang Mingzhu. A while ago, two female celebrities were accused of imitating Senior Jiang Mingzhu, and as reporters, you guys should know what happened to them.”
