I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 87

Following the surface of the news on the Internet, Shi Wei was attacked by netizens and keyboard warriors. Her fans were disappointed with what she had done and the fans of her victims were upset that Shi Wei had sabotaged their idols.

With regard to the few film producers and directors who were involved in the scandal of Shi Wei, they kept silent. Although the media and reporters attempted to contact them, they were denied access with all kinds of excuses. Such action instantly put Shi Wei into the spotlight of beratement.

The entertainment industry had always been hard to navigate. The successful celebrities on top would be glorified while the unsuccessful ones would be ignored. In dealing with this matter, Shi Wei’s talent management agency had issued an emergency press release to explain the matter to the public and stating that she was framed.

Once the press release was out, sexy photographs of Shi Wei were released by a small magazine publisher. The photographs seemed to be taken when Shi Wei was seventeen or eighteen years old. At that time, Shi Wei had just entered the entertainment industry.

Once the photographs were published, all the efforts to curb the impact on her image became futile. The talent management agency of Shi Wei requested her to rest at home straightaway and avoid all work in the near future. All the product endorsement work of Shi Wei got withdrawn one after another. Most of them wanted to terminate their contract with Shi Wei.

“Sigh. Sigh!”

 

At this time, the Shi family was like being covered in dark clouds. Shi Wei was extremely furious and she felt nothing was right around her, including the way her maid looked at her.

Shi Wei had been staying at home for two full days. During this period, she did not dare to go out as she was worried of being disturbed by paparazzies.

 

The distraught Shi Wei smashed and broke many things at home, including both fragile items and durable items.

Jiang Yu knew that Shi Wei’s mood was terrible and she instructed the people at her family on purpose to be more alert. However, doing so did not brighten up Shi Wei’s day or alleviate the pain in her heart.

She did not know who the person behind the sabotage was.

It was just too common to see people getting sabotaged in the entertainment industry. Those who were popular would give those who were not popular a hard time and it was not unusual for rivals to find ways to diss each other. Most of the time, people would just throw others under the bus but they would never expose information in such a blatant manner.

This incident had totally caught Shi Wei off guard and she was not prepared to face such an issue. It was obvious that the mastermind was well prepared as more negative news of her were published once a damage control press release was made by her public relations team.

She would definitely want the saboteurs to pay the price if she knew who they were.

“Wei, you have to eat something!”

Jiang Yu was heartbroken when she saw Shi Wei getting thinner as time went by. “Come, I’ve made you your favorite dishes. Please give it a try!”

“No, I don’t want to eat!” Shi Wei pushed Jiang Yu’s hand away furiously. The food then fell on the ground.

“Wei!” Jiang Yu gritted her teeth and said, “When do you plan to stop all these nonsense? Look at how miserable you are now.” Jiang Yu was heartbroken when she saw Shi Wei giving up on herself and at the same time feeling hopeless at her. “Look at yourself! You haven’t been eating for the past two days. What’s the point of you smashing the food served by the maid?”

“But mother, what can I do? I feel that I’m doomed.” Shi Wei had lost weight and she felt really helpless about the situation. She then continued, “My agency had asked me to rest at home but I know that they are giving up on me. Those product sponsors are also demanding to change their product spokesperson. Mommy, who would sabotage me so badly?”

Shi Wei sought a hug from Jiang Yu and said, “I’ve worked so hard all these while before becoming a star. I really don’t want my celebrity career to end here. Mommy, could you please help me?”

Shi Wei tugged on Jiang Yu’s sleeves and asked, “Mommy, aren’t you the nicest person to me? You have a solution, right?”

Jiang Yu frowned as there was nothing much she could do. She was neither powerful nor influential. All she could rely on was the Shi family.

If this matter was brought up within the family, everyone in the family would start criticizing Shi Wei. This issue was indeed a tough one.

Shi Wei was a little disappointed when she saw Jiang Yu’s face fall. She said, “Mommy, do you still love me? How could you see me being sabotaged by others?”

“How is it possible that mommy doesn’t love you?” Jiang Yu patted Shi Wei on her shoulder while hugging her. She continued, “You are my only daughter and I love you dearly. There may be a way out but…”

“But what?” Shi Wei quickly grabbed Jiang Yu’s hand and pursed her lips. “Mommy, you do have a solution, don’t you? I knew you would have a way to resolve this problem.”
