Chapter 522: Conflict

The assistant did not know what had happened either. They were still talking nicely just now, but Chen Xiang suddenly became like this.

“Sister Ye, I was just here with Sister Chen Xiang to discuss the actors in the country. I don’t know what I said wrong, but she was stunned.” When the assistant said these words, she sounded like she was crying.

Ye Ying, Chen Xiang’s manager, had traveled extensively and was someone who had seen much of the world. She did not panic and quickly walked over to check on the situation.

“Chen Xiang, Chen Xiang!” Ye Ying called her name.

Fortunately, Chen Xiang was not completely immersed in this matter. She quickly recovered and looked at Ye Ying. “Sister Ye, I’m fine.”

With that, she lifted her skirt and left. She looked very calm, but Ye Ying could tell that she was flustered, as if she was hiding something.

Ye Ying turned to look at the assistant. “Who were you discussing just now?”

“It’s an actress called Jiang An.” The assistant was a little afraid of Ye Ying.

Ye Ying searched through her mind, but she did not have any impression of this name. She should be a new generation actor in the country. At least, when Chen Xiang left the country, there was no such actor.

That was even stranger. It was impossible for an unknown actress to affect Chen Xiang. Her emotions had always been stable.

Ye Ying felt that there must be something she didn’t notice, so she continued to ask, “What else did you say? Tell me in detail.”

The assistant could only repeat it word by word. When the name Zou Bai was mentioned, Ye Ying understood everything.

She did not blame the assistant. After all, the other party did not know anything.

In the lounge, Chen Xiang took off her gown and changed into her usual clothes.

She had been working overseas for so many years and had long gained a certain level of fame. Many media outlets had secretly followed her to take photos, wanting to obtain some explosive news.

However, other than working, Chen Xiang only went home. When she went out, she also exercised alone. Every day, she went out without makeup, as if she was just an ordinary person.

The media followed her for a month and did not manage to capture anything. They wrote a piece that mocked Chen Xiang for not having any friends.

However, this made Chen Xiang even more popular. Nowadays, many celebrities did not have any acting skills, but they still used all kinds of scandals to hype themselves up. They increased their exposure and gave them the chance to act. This made other capable actors have no dramas to film.

The audience became less and less fond of watching movies and television dramas. They did not want poor acting skills to poison their eyes. The entire film industry was declining day by day. Now that they finally had an actor who focused on acting and did not cut corners to hype themselves up, yet the media still took the time to write an article to mock them. It was simply ridiculous.

Chen Xiang’s reputation immediately reached a new height. Many directors wanted to invite her to film, so she was extremely busy. This was also the hype that Ye Ying was most proud of.

She used the public’s rebellious mentality to make Chen Xiang, who originally only had a good reputation and no popularity, a popular celebrity.

This was the work she was most satisfied with. She would never allow anything to go wrong.

Ye Ying pushed open the lounge door and walked in. “Are you still thinking about Zou Bai?”

“Sister Ye, you should know that I haven’t forgotten him,” Chen Xiang said as she hugged her knees and sat on the sofa.

Ye Ying sighed. “You’re an international superstar now. You can have any man you want. Many rich young masters are pursuing you. Why can’t you forget Zou Bai?”

“Because I really love him.” Chen Xiang’s tone was desolate.

Ye Ying felt a headache coming on. “Love is the most useless thing. Back in the country, he didn’t ask you to stay. Now that he’s the head of the family, he hasn’t come to look for you. He even has an ambiguous relationship with a female celebrity. Only you’re still thinking about the past.”

“Sister Ye, don’t say that. He had no choice.” Chen Xiang shook his head.

Ye Ying was really angry. Chen Xiang was still speaking up for Zou Bai. When she first became Chen Xiang’s manager, the Zou family was at their worst.

Chen Xiang was suppressed to the point that she had almost no job. She could only stay at home every day and wait for Zou Bai’s news.

She sat with Chen Xiang and waited, but no one came. Instead, the Zou family’s conditions arrived first. They promised to give Chen Xiang the best resources as long as she left the country.

Ye Ying could tell that Zou Bai was unreliable, so she agreed immediately and dragged the unwilling Chen Xiang overseas immediately to protect her artiste.

If she stayed in the country and continued to pester the Zou family, Chen Xiang would be banned from acting for the rest of her life..
