"You don't recognize me?" the old lady asked with a smile.
Everyone was confused.
I looked at Huo Yubai.
Huo Yubai smiled.
"You're not the chairman of the Meihe Group, are you?" I asked.
"Young lady, I'm so sorry, I've dragged you into this." The old lady smiled and said, "Let me introduce myself, I am Wang Qingshan, the chairman of Meihe Group." Wang Qingshan smiled.
Everyone was stunned.
Is she the chairperson of the Meihe Group?
Isn't the chairman of Meihe Group a man?
What exactly is going on?
"You're not a fake, are you?" Shang Xiaoting asked in shock.
“Watch your words.” One of Wang Qingshan’s staff members said seriously, “If you don’t believe me, I can take you to the police station to prove it.”
Shang Xiaoting was embarrassed.
Everyone came to their senses; since they had said so, it must be true.
Otherwise, who would dare to go to the police station to prove their identity? What if there's a problem? Wouldn't that be like exposing themselves?
Gu Heng smiled and said, "It seems there was a misunderstanding. Even I thought you were a man."
Actually, he was still not quite sure.
Gu Haoran did mention that the chairman of Meihe Group is a man.
As for her age and appearance, I'm not sure.
But he was also afraid that Gu Haoran had made a mistake.
Wang Qingshan smiled faintly: "You're not mistaken, it's your father. He always thought it was my assistant who contacted him, so he assumed it was me. In Xinjing City, the only person I can have any contact with is your father. For such a rumor to spread, it probably isn't your father, is it?"
Gu Heng's expression darkened slightly.
Only someone of Wang Qingshan's status would dare to say such a thing.
Gu Heng cracked his knuckles: "It has nothing to do with my father. I've already sent someone to call over the people from the president's office."
The words have not yet fallen.
A man rushed over, sweating profusely: "President, you wanted to see me?"
"How did these rumors about Shen Yan start?" Gu Heng asked coldly.
The man paused, then stammered, "President, it's my fault. That day, when I went to your office to deliver some documents, I accidentally pressed the intercom. When Professor Shen went in, the intercom was on, and that's how your conversation was heard."
Gu Heng scolded, "Why didn't your people in the president's office remind you?"
"President, we already know we were wrong. The entire president's office has apologized to Professor Shen on Weibo. Please forgive us, Professor Shen," the man said nervously.
Gu Heng looked at me and said, "I'm sorry, I've wronged you. I really didn't expect them to be so good at making baseless accusations."
"Gu Heng, you were the one who first slandered my relationship with the chairman of Meihe Group!" I gritted my teeth.
How dare those people in his president's office spread rumors about me so openly?
"Professor Shen, we are so sorry, it was our group that had such foul mouths." The man apologized cautiously, "Please forgive us."
“I will never forgive you.” I looked at him coldly. “I don’t care if you did it on your own or if you were taking the blame for someone else. I will make you pay the price. Otherwise, how will you understand the cost of spreading rumors?”
The man froze.
"Shen Yan, it's best to be forgiving," Shang Xiaoting said quietly. "They didn't do it on purpose."
"As a celebrity, isn't it ridiculous for you to say something like that?" I said sarcastically. "How do you know to hold up your ID card to delete those posts spreading rumors about you online?"
Shang Xiaoting said, "I just think that it's not easy for him as a working person. If you sue him and cause him to lose his job and life, wouldn't that be too vicious?"
"Is it malicious for me to defend my legal rights?" I scoffed. "He's the one who did wrong, yet you're labeling me and assigning me values. Whose values are skewed? Are you really suited to be a celebrity? You're setting a bad example for so many people."
"I just felt sorry for him," Shang Xiaoting explained.
“It’s despicable that he spreads rumors,” I said coldly.
Shang Xiaoting swallowed her words.
"Don't get angry with someone whose values are warped." Huo Yubai held my hand. "I've always believed in you. I'll help you get justice!"
“I can do it myself.” I looked at the man and said, “You’d better wait for your court summons.”
The man glanced furtively at Gu Heng.
Gu Heng remained expressionless.
He lowered his head and remained silent.
I looked coldly at Zhao Baixue: "It seems I shouldn't have let you go last time."
"What, what did you say?" Zhao Baixue looked embarrassed.
"You'll find out soon enough." My eyes held a hint of sarcasm.
After I finished speaking, I looked at Wang Qingshan and said, "Chairwoman Wang, thank you so much for your help today."
Wang Qingshan smiled and said, "I'm here to see an old friend today, so I won't bother you any longer."
They left as a group.
At this moment, the host's powerful voice came from the stage: "The next award we will be presenting is the Best Actress Award. Please welcome our presenter, Shen Yan."
It's my turn.
"I'll be waiting for you backstage," Huo Yubai said to me.
He held out his arm: "Give me the coat."
I nodded, took off my black wool coat, revealing a deep red halter-neck dress underneath. The back was open, and a belt studded with rhinestones cinched at the waist, sparkling as I walked.
Waiting to go on stage.
I stood in front of the microphone.
Huo Yubai was already seated in the audience.
Zhao Baixue and the others returned to their seats.
"Next, I'll be presenting tonight's hottest award, the Most Popular Actress Award." I said with a slight smile, "Please look at the big screen."
There were four candidates in total, and Zhao Baixue was one of them.
Over the years, Gu Heng has spent a lot of money promoting her, and her resources are far ahead of her peers. It is precisely because of this that she is able to compete with those very experienced middle-aged and young actresses.
The camera panned across the four actresses, finally settling on Zhao Baixue.
"Let's congratulate Zhao Baixue and invite her to the stage to accept the award." The host's tone became excited.
Zhao Baixue was still feigning shock.
The people around him all looked inscrutable, and some even had expressions of disgust, as if they had swallowed a fly.
She got up and walked towards the stage.
The hostess walked over carrying the trophy.
Zhao Baixue stood in front of me, her smile revealing a hint of smugness.
I picked up the trophy, smiled, and said, "Zhao Baixue, do you deserve this trophy?"
Everyone was stunned.
"What did you say?" Zhao Baixue frowned.
"Do you even deserve it?" I said firmly. "You won Best Actress for this film. I want to ask you, how do you explain yourself to the actress who was disfigured and left with a permanent disability because of you?"
"Shen Yan, do you know what you're saying?" Zhao Baixue's face turned pale.
Gu Heng had already stood up from the stage.
"Gu Heng, Zhao Baixue, what happened just now was something you deliberately did to provoke me. In return, I'm exposing your true colors so everyone can see!" I said angrily. "The actress you disfigured and disabled is named Qiu Ya. She was burned in a fire during the first scene. According to the police investigation, the fire was arson."
