Free Web NovelChapter 80: Chapter 90: One Day, You Will Be As Popular As Her
Jun Liangye was puzzled. Just as he leaned in closer, Gong Ye stepped directly in front of him.
Jun Liangye was reminded of that day when he thought he saw Ye Ning getting into a Rolls-Royce.
Could it be... that car belonged to Gong Ye?
A sense of unease gripped Jun Liangye’s heart.
Standing next to Gong Ye, Ye Ning immediately felt the complex gazes from the surroundings.
Some people were envious, but most were filled with jealousy.
A newbie like her surrounded by staring gazes...
She cast an annoyed glance at Gong Ye.
"Second senior brother, can you keep some distance from me?"
Gong Ye kept staring at Ye Ning’s face, "Oh, I must say, you look even prettier now than before. If I don’t protect you a bit, in no time you will be devoured. Look at the way people are watching you! Men and women both, incessantly. You should hide behind me so I can protect you properly!"
"..."
Clearly, they were all watching because an international superstar like you keeps hanging around a newbie. That’s why they can’t take their gaze off this place.
Ye Ning said, "Never mind, I’m going to the restroom."
Considering it was a press conference and there was nothing much for a newbie like her, she thought it was best to make herself scarce.
"Hey, why are you running? I won’t eat you!"
Gong Ye called from behind, watching Ye Ning flee in panic, feeling extremely delighted.
The haughty Ye Ning had met with such a day, he thought, amusing, very amusing.
And Ye Ning, after she had left, bumped into Jun Liangye.
He looked at her deeply, his expression extremely complicated. After a long pause, he finally asked, "What’s the relationship between you and Gong Ye?" freewёbnoνel.com
Ye Ning looked up at him, "No relation... wait, no, whatever my relationship with Gong Ye, it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you."
Upon completing her statement, Ye Ning turned to leave.
"Ye Ning, Gong Ye isn’t exactly well-thought-of in the circle. You better stay away from him. Despite being a national treasure level actor, his connections mostly lie overseas. He can’t help you much domestically. You shouldn’t be hasty in seeking quick success; it’s important to take the right path!"
Ye Ning didn’t bother to answer, and quickly left the room.
He Yahui had been waiting at the door for Ye Ning.
"Sister He, I’m ready, let’s go."
Standing at the door, He Yahui peered inside. Upon seeing the situation, she froze for a moment, then led Ye Ning out of the room.
Observing the situation inside, He Yahui took a deep look at Ye Ning.
Ye Ning heaved a sigh, "Such bad luck."
He Yahui smiled and shook her head, "This kind of ’bad luck’ is something many others can’t even dream of having."
Ye Ning thought silently, "Let them take it if they want it."
He Yahui said, "Beautiful women are always fortunate. You might not understand that now."
At this point, the press conference that was being live-streamed on the internet and television had gone crazy because Gong Ye had appeared. The entire event revolved around Gong Ye. The male lead, Jun Liangye, was reasonably sidelined, receiving no media attention.
But, Ye Zi still being the female lead, the media coverage revolved around her.
On television, Ye Zi completely disregarded Jun Liangye, stating directly, "I’m very much looking forward to working with Gong Ye."
The media immediately ran a headline about Ye Zi collaborating with Gong Ye. It was clearly a pre-arranged press release by Ye Zi’s team, but it couldn’t be denied that anyone associated with Gong Ye would immediately appear much more impressive.
Ye Ning watched Ye Zi basking in glory on-screen, her eyes squinted.
He Yahui looked at Ye Ning and chuckled, "Work hard and you could be the next Ye Zi."
Ye Ning had no interest in becoming the next Ye Zi.
"Let it be."
He Yahui laughed softly, thinking to herself that it wasn’t something Ye Ning could just let go of easily. With such luck, she was signed by Gai Ben right from the beginning and got so much attention in the industry. Her fortune was just beginning.
