Lin Zhiyi was deep in thought and jumped in surprise, almost dropping her phone.
She turned to look at Liao Yi.
Liao Yi was staring at the paused image on the TV screen.
"This is infuriating!"
"What’s happening? Why did you pause at the male lead’s scene?" Lin Zhiyi asked curiously.
"This should have been the female lead’s first highlight moment, yet they gave it to the male lead. It’s almost thirty minutes into the first episode, and they’re still showing how many women admire him. The screenwriter of this adaptation has lost it!"
Liao Yi was eager to dive into the TV and thrash the male lead.
Lin Zhiyi glanced at the TV, perhaps because she hadn’t watched dramas in a long time.
She didn’t realize that TV dramas could now swap male and female plots.
Seeing Liao Yi ready to hammer the TV, Lin Zhiyi quickly held her back.
"Wait, don’t be impulsive; didn’t we come up with a plan?"
Liao Yi calmed down.
"Zhiyi, what’s your plan?"
Lin Zhiyi shook her phone and dialed Chu Yin’s number.
As soon as the call connected, Chu Yin immediately said, "Zhiyi, did you see the news online? Don’t believe it, it’s just a publicity stunt."
"You still want to keep it from me? I’m here to offer a suggestion," Lin Zhiyi smiled.
"What do you mean?"
"Your friend, me, has gained a bit of fame recently. It just so happens that I’m releasing a new product today, so I was wondering if I could borrow your spotlight."
"I understand, mutual support, let’s do as you say."
Chu Yin understood what Lin Zhiyi meant.
The two of them discussed and quickly determined the next step.
Lin Zhiyi turned to Liao Yi: "Help create an illustration for Chu Yin and my new jewelry design."
Liao Yi gestured OK with her hand.
"No problem."
Drawing was Liao Yi’s strength, and as soon as she saw Lin Zhiyi’s new product, she knew exactly how to design it.
Shortly after, Liao Yi handed over a satisfying illustration.
In the picture, Chu Yin was very minimalist, wearing Lin Zhiyi’s new jewelry, lying among flowers.
The whole person was light and youthful.
The assistant’s eyes lit up after seeing it.
"No wonder you said Miss Chu is destined to be popular; she truly embodies every role she takes, her face alone commands authority."
"Publish it along with the new product, and send the new jewelry to Chu Yin; she knows how to cooperate." Lin Zhiyi instructed.
"Okay, no problem."
The assistant turned and went to work.
Half of the problem was solved; the other half was what Lin Zhiyi was most concerned about.
She looked up at Liao Yi: "You’re part of Chu Yin’s support team, you’re well aware of her recent situation. She’s always reporting good news and not the bad, can you tell me?"
"Of course I can." Liao Yi started talking about Chu Yin’s recent condition.
Although Chu Yin calmed down to film in the mountains.
The situation wasn’t any less troubling than being in the city.
"Constant minor troubles, I’ll spare you the details, but fortunately Chu Yin doesn’t panic, so she’s able to resolve them. But I don’t know why people always bother her; she doesn’t say it, but it really affects her a lot, just at this moment..."
"Mr. Sang showed up?" Lin Zhiyi smiled.
"Yep, someone in the group saw a man’s silhouette during a visit; they didn’t know who it was. I recognized him instantly, but rest assured, I’ve never mentioned it," Liao Yi said. "Anyway, with Mr. Sang around, Chu Yin has avoided calamity."
After listening, Lin Zhiyi had a thought.
Maybe someone could protect Chu Yin.
"Alright, I understand. You go ahead and get busy."
"Okay."
After Liao Yi left, Lin Zhiyi called Gong Chen.
"Third Young Master, what are you busy with?"
"Playing on the computer," Gong Chen said.
"Hmm?"
Gong Chen still played computer games?
Gong Chen continued, "Something up?"
Lin Zhiyi cautiously said, "Do you know... what Mr. Sang has been up to recently?"
"Lin Zhiyi, it’s only my first day after being dismissed, and you’re already planning to cozy up with someone else?" Gong Chen said in a low voice.
"I’ve seen my brother offline; he’s really attractive, some women should stay away."
"The makeup in the drama on brother was to fit the original story’s depiction of the male lead; since he’s supposed to be alluring, some makeup is necessary. It shows brother’s deep study of the script."
Everyone has their points, and no one yields.
The two newcomers quickly garnered attention.
This was precisely the effect Lin Zhiyi and Chu Yin wanted.
Online debates don’t have winners; it’s the attention that counts.
The male lead likes to provoke; they used this to increase their traffic.
By the time the male lead realizes, he’ll probably regret it to death.
He just needed to market himself as a pretty boy, but no, he had to provoke others.
Serves him right.
Lin Zhiyi casually flipped through the comments just as she received a text from Chu Yin.
"Zhiyi, see you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
Just as Lin Zhiyi looked at the emoji Chu Yin sent, ready to smile, a voice message from Gong Chen turned her face pale.
"Zhiyi, Siyi drowned and is in the hospital. I’m on my way there."
Drowned?
Lin Zhiyi felt like an invisible hand had gripped her throat, making it hard to breathe.
The sound of her phone dropping pulled her back to reality.
She immediately pulled herself together.
It seemed Xia Wan guessed correctly; those closely associated with her were in danger.
But she couldn’t just go kill the Bai Family now.
She could only wait for the sentencing.
The culprits were sure to die.
Lin Zhiyi took a deep breath and quickly walked out of the office.
The assistant came over, "Boss, is there an urgent matter?"
"Take me to the hospital."
