Yang Lin grunted and walked past her. As she walked, she spoke in a voice that was particularly threatening but light, “Nice to meet you, senior Lin Che. Let’s wait and see.”
After that, Yang Lin strutted off in her high heels, looking very sultry. That young girl in the past was already long gone.
Lin Che watched and shook her head. She really did not expect this. However, she was extremely speechless at the same time. Was Yang Lin still thinking about taking revenge?
She scoffed coldly. At the side, Yu Minmin nudged her. “Are you shocked?”
Lin Che waved her hand dismissively. “There’s nothing to be shocked about. Every dog has its day and one day, it’ll be hers. It’s a small world after all. I’m just curious about what she went through.”
Yu Minmin said, “I only met her once previously backstage at an event. She also threatened me and said that we would wait and see. She even said that she was able to come back alive and she was no longer afraid of anything. I asked around and heard that she was locked up in prison. This dark history is of course known to many in this circle. However, she changed her image, name, and background to a completely different person. Thus, there isn’t really any proof of this dark past.”
Lin Che said, “It looks like her resentment is really deep.”
“Why? Are you afraid?” Yu Minmin asked.
Lin Che shook her head. “There’s nothing to be afraid of. There is always a solution to a problem. I’m not someone who would be easily shaken by her mere words.”
Yu Minmin said, “Alright. Actually, she hadn’t been having it easy and she barely made it out alive to be where she is now. She should also be treasuring everything she has now. She wouldn’t butt heads with you for no reason. Only someone who has nothing to lose would fight with their life. She’s starting to be on the rise. She wouldn’t do that to herself.”
“How many shows has she filmed?” Lin Che asked.
Yu Minmin said, “She just filmed two dramas. She was the second female in the first one. In the second one, she jumped to become the first. It’s a crossover drama and it’s rather popular. It’s being talked about a lot now and at the same time, she just had a rumor with a male singer. Now, she has yet another rumor with a young guy. She is constantly being talked about...”
Lin Che replied, “Alright... I haven’t been keeping up with the news.”
“Yeah, you haven’t updated your Weibo in a long time. Something is going on later. We’ll go to a cocktail party. You can show your face briefly and we’ll leave. Tomorrow, there will be news about you wanting to make a comeback. We’ll strike a pose and then find a chance to make a comeback properly.”
Lin Che said, “Yeah. We’ll stick to your arrangement then.”
At night, Lin Che did not go home. After signing the contract, she attended a big shot’s cocktail party with Yu Minmin.
The cocktail party was a post-conference event that took place during the day.
This international big shot always attracted lots of attention from celebrities every time he came to this country for a press conference.
Many celebrities who were invited would attend both the press conference and cocktail party.
This was the charm of a big shot. It was as if mingling with a big shot would naturally lead to a celebrity’s rise in value.
Actually, Lin Che believed that a celebrity’s rise in value had no relation to mingling with big shots.
Before Lin Che arrived, she received a demonstration.
At night, Peng Yu posted a selfie on his Weibo, saying that she was going to a cocktail party.
The clothes in his selfie were from the latest collection from Dior.
Everyone immediately understood what Peng Yu meant. She was officially invited. Thus, she could wear the latest products to attend the event. This is because every time Dior had a press conference, they would select a few celebrities from within the country to be ambassadors.
The media also received the announcement. The company released a statement that praised Peng Yu to high ends. It said that she was now the most popular star in the country and she was the absolute successor to Mu Feiran in her golden years. Nobody else would compare to Peng Yu. It was even hinted at the end that nobody should compare her with those other expired celebrities anymore.
Expired stars?
Wasn’t it Lin Che whom people kept comparing Peng Yu to?
Lin Che read the statement and was amused. She felt that she had not been completely famous yet and she was already categorized as an expired celebrity.
Yu Minmin looked at Lin Che. ” Ah well, who would have thought that Peng Yu would be invited to be an ambassador this year? I overlooked this and never heard about this.”
Lin Che looked at Yu Minmin. “It’s okay. Those who are capable have nothing to fear. It doesn’t mean that I can’t go anymore if she is going.”
She pressed Yu Minmin’s hand reassuringly, “Don’t worry. If I can’t even handle one Peng Yu, then I’m afraid I shouldn’t be making a comeback. I should go back home and look after my kid instead.”
Yu Minmin replied, “Of course, I have faith in you. A little starlet wants to compete with you when she has only just been popular for a few years? That’s impossible.”
At night, at the cocktail party.
Qin Wanwan was invited as a celebrity. However, she was no longer the same actor who could summon the winds and rain as she wanted. Nobody cared about her when she entered now. She could only chat with a few people she was familiar with. However, everybody already knew her character. She was two-faced and nobody made personal conversations with her anymore.
Someone saw Qin Wanwan and asked, “Did you see the news about Peng Yu today? How did she get selected as an ambassador this year?”
Qin Wanwan said, “Hmph. I wonder how much money she paid to be in. If I had to say, even Yang Lin would make a stronger contender than her.”
“No matter what you say, she can do that.”
“Hey, look. Peng Yu is here.”
Everyone looked over and indeed saw that Peng Yu had arrived. The car stopped outside and she just alighted. She was clad in Dior’s new clothes and the reporters swarmed towards her.
Qin Wanwan remembered that she used to be like that too, but now...
Peng Yu smiled at the reporters. “Hello.”
“Who picked the ambassador this time?”
“Is there going to be an endorsement contract?”
“Do you have anything to say regarding why you were selected?”
Peng Yu’s smile was sweet but hinted pride. She appeared like a big shot with a big shot’s temper. She looked as if she was very high and mighty. “The host contacted us and we then agreed. With regards to how they chose me, I think it might be because my poise and looks are better suited to their products and so on...”
However, just then, everyone suddenly saw another luxury car pull up behind.
Everyone saw the Maybach limousine stop at the entrance. It was a brand new car that looked extremely eye-catching. However, the person who stepped out of it left everyone more surprised.
Someone exclaimed, “Lin Che! Quick, look! It’s Lin Che!”
The people immediately rushed over in a frenzy.
Peng Yu, who had many reporters gathered around her previously, now had not even a single camera pointed at her.
Because everyone already began to surround Lin Che.
