Chapter 423 - Why Hurt His Self-Esteem?
Su Jinhang pushed the other party away and shook his head as he said in a clear and sharp tone, “I want to be a clean artiste.”
“Dude, are you kidding me right now? Do you really think that there are any clean artistes in the entertainment industry?” the other party asked in disbelief.
“Yes!” Su Jinhang replied firmly as he held onto his own beliefs.
“Alright then, since you think you can do it, then just go ahead and do it on your own. Stop wasting time. The chairman and the artiste director have no time to waste on you,” the other party replied as he waved his hand at Su Jinhang, beckoning him to leave.
He had a very impatient look in his eyes, as though he was looking at some disgusting bug.
Su Jinhang clenched his fists tightly together but as he was about to leave the company, he was stopped by the security guard in front of the reception desk. “The young lady wants to see you.”
Su Jinhang ignored what the security guard had just said and he continued walking towards the exit but the security guard grabbed hold of him and refused to let him go. After that, Su Jinhang was escorted directly to the young lady’s office on the fourth floor. This was the office that made Su Jinhang feel extremely sick.
“Jinhang, you seem to be misbehaving lately.” A woman in her early thirties got up from her office chair before she walked towards Su Jinhang. “Do you really think that you can leave the company just because you have recently gotten the lead role in a drama and a spot as a regular guest in a variety program?”
Su Jinhang did not reply, but he simply looked away, refusing to face the woman who was standing before him.
“So, are you going to continue paving a way for yourself by relying on Jiang Yuning’s popularity? Are you crazy? Do you know how many people are waiting to see Jiang Yuning fall from the pedestal? Did you really think that you can turn your career around simply by joining forces with Jiang Yuning?” the woman spoke as she reached out her hands and touched Su Jinhang’s collar gently. “You are only making yourself a target and the public enemy by getting so close to Jiang Yuning. Don’t you care about your own career anymore?”
Su Jinhang pushed the other party’s hand away out of frustration before he took a deep breath.
“Jinhang, Jinhang, the whole world is now so disgusted at you and scolding you for being so ugly in the past.”
Su Jinhang looked up at the other party with disgust in his eyes before he opened the office door to leave the office immediately. However, before stepping out of the office, Su Jinhang turned around to say one last sentence to the woman in the office. “I think what disgusts and bothers me the most is you, and not everyone else who is scolding me.”
The expression on the woman’s face changed as soon as she heard Su Jinhang’s words.
However, she could not do anything because Su Jinhang had already walked away.
Su Jinhang was indeed placed in a very difficult situation and he was already feeling very desperate at this point. However, this did not mean that he should just compromise and give in to the young lady’s request. If he refused to comply to the young lady’s command, then the worse thing that could happen would be for him to leave the entertainment industry and live an ordinary life. However, once he compromises and gives in to the young lady, then he would be bound and indebted to her for the rest of his life.
That way, he would never be able to see the sunlight again.
He would rather give up on his career then.
As soon as he thought about this, Su Jinhang felt a little more relaxed and calm.
Jiang Yuning would be having a photo shoot for the drama <Yan Huasu> later in the afternoon. At this time, Su Jinhang thought that he would perhaps be able to get all the answers that he needed from Jiang Yuning.
This was because it seemed as though Jiang Yuning was a ray of sunshine amidst the darkness.
Therefore, after leaving the company, Su Jinhang put on a cap and a mask before he took a taxi to the studio where Jiang Yuning was going to have her photo shoot for the day.
Since it was still early, Jiang Yuning had not arrived at the studio yet.
Su Jinhang bought a lunchbox nearby before he sat down at a secluded place to eat his lunch.
No one knew that he was a celebrity because no celebrity or artiste would sit at such places to eat lunch when they had no activities scheduled for the day.
…
“Young paparazzo…is that Su Jinhang?” At this time, Jiang Yuning’s car had just arrived at the entrance of the studio. When she saw the young man who was wearing a cap and sitting down at a corner all by himself, she felt that he looked really familiar.
The young paparazzo stopped in his tracks before taking a serious look at the young man who was seated at the corner. After that, he nodded his head before he said, “Sister Yuning, it seems as though it is really Su Jinhang. Do you want me to call him?”
“No.” Jiang Yuning replied as she shook her head. “Why hurt his self-esteem?”
“But don’t you think that he is really pitiful?”
