Chapter 2645: Sudden Wedding Announcement (6)

Sitting at one side, Ji Yan’s face turned pale and she looked incredulously at Ji Lin. She initially reckoned that the conference was Huanyu’s way of bending over backward—apologizing to her—to minimize their artist’s loss of reputation and popularity.

She also thought that the company would compromise with her.

Instead, her anticipation was dashed!

She was at a loss for a brief moment, but it was inaccurate to say that she had wholly been caught off guard. What of Yun Shishi not admitting her involvement? Everybody, including the press and fans, had long formed a preconceived notion that the actress was a mistress. On top of this, Huanyu’s nonchalance over this matter had been interpreted by the public as a silent admission; hence, it did not really matter whether the actress admitted to anything or not.

The public was already gnashing their teeth over her ‘mistress’ image; there was no way for her to shed that negative reputation.

Ji Yan machinated maliciously inside her head while she tried to maintain calmness composure. Concurrently, before the cameras, she put on a look of incomparable aggravation as if she were a victim and had been gravely wronged.

The head producer added, “Tonight, in this conference, Huanyu and Ms. Yun Shishi will fully clarify the matter. In addition, we sincerely apologize to the public and fans for the negative influence brought upon by this personal affair.”

The press people exchanged dumbfounded looks, then questions started rolling in one after another. The journalists sitting in the front row could not hold back their surprise and hurriedly scrambled to pitch in their questions. The scene became rowdy in a split second.

These media personnel had been to many celebrity’s press conferences. Stars getting embroiled in scandals was a common occurrence in the industry of entertainment, so such conferences to clarify the truth were held every now and then. In reality, were the reporters after the truth?

The truth was not important to them at all; they did not care about the facts of a matter. What they actually wanted was exploitative topics, which would draw the public’s interest and generate traffic to their news portals.

Ji Lin quickly tried to take control of the situation by saying in a serious tone, “Everyone, please maintain order, alright? We’ll go into the Q&A portion soon, so please stick to the rules and raise your hands if you want to ask questions.”

Some reporters immediately raised their hands high.

“Okay, the reporter from Phoenix Media can pose his question.”

The reporter jumped up from his seat, and after pointing the microphone to his target, he asked, “Miss Ji Yan, putting aside what Huanyu has just said, do you agree that the news surrounding Miss Yun Shishi is untrue?”

As soon as he finished posing that query, the actress pursed her lips and a crystal-clear tear immediately fell from her eye and formed a line down her cheek. She covered her mouth for a while, looking choked. It was not until she got a hang of her emotions that she picked up the microphone and spoke to the press, with red, moist eyes. “Thank you to the reporter for the friendly question. What can I say except that it’s okay to be ignorant but definitely not shameless! The reason I showed up for this conference is that I thought Huanyu would issue a formal apology for the bad behavior of their artists, but I didn’t expect that they’d be shameless to the point of ignoring their conscience just to cover up for their artists! They claimed that all those rumors are false, so isn’t that accusing me of fabricating these reports? I originally intended to be magnanimous and extend Yun Shishi an olive branch if she’s sincere enough with her apology and in asking for my forgiveness, but with her accusing me of rumor-mongering, I’d rather fight back!”

After her long speech, she put down the microphone and wiped her now tear-soaked face with great disappointment. She truly looked pitiful!
