Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

All kinds of negative news about ‘4:30 P.M.’ were flying around once again and quickly overshadowed Yun Nan and Fang Xi’s live on-the-scene question-and-answer broadcast. Who wanted to listen to normal, boring news in this day and age?

People tend to have a novelty-seeking mentality, and everyone only wanted to know if Yun Nan was a heartless ingrate and was the original lead actress of ‘4:30 P.M.’ a lovestruck fool. Did she suddenly quit the movie because Yun Nan bullied her? Did the new lead actress get the role by sleeping with Mika—the most highly regarded executive director in Yun Nan’s studio?

Yun Entertainment—which had fallen into a slump recently—was perceived as the ‘innocent victim’ of the current circumstances. The public couldn’t get any exciting news from Yun Nan, so they turned their attention to Yun Entertainment.

And thus, ‘coincidentally,’ everyone discovered a huge secret: they found that

Miss Yun Liu was wearing a ring in her recent photo shoot. It shared a striking resemblance to the one designed by Xiang Yang, which had caused a sensation some time ago. Most importantly, Yun Liu’s hairstyle was the same as the hairstyle of Shi Nian’s female partner in the advert!

Aha! Mystery solved! Gee, they really should’ve known! Rumors that Yun Liu and Shi Nian were childhood sweethearts had been around for years! Although Shi Nian had once clarified in a private event that they had nothing to do with each other, Shi Nian did admit that he was married and stated he didn’t disclose his wife’s identity because it would inconvenience her!

Wasn’t that secretly—or rather, clearly—pointing toward Yun Liu? Yun Liu had debuted not long ago and wasn’t very well-known. If she announced that she was married, it would definitely be detrimental to her career! All the signs were obvious—Yun Liu was Shi Nian’s mysterious wife!

Miss Ding’s phone nearly exploded with calls, and the woman smugly smiled as she looked at the vibrating phone on the sofa. She only chose to answer one out of ten calls.

She picked up a call and listened before replying, “Oh! I’m sorry, but Yun Liu has been busy with work recently and has no time for an exclusive interview. Oh, you’re asking about her relationship with Shi Nian? Hehehe, forgive me, but I’m not allowed to say anything without permission. Really, I can’t!”

“Come now, you must understand! It’s best not to talk too much about an artiste’s private life to avoid spreading rumors. Our Yun Liu has always insisted on keeping her work and personal life separate, so please be understanding,” she continued.

Miss Ding then hung up the phone and happily gushed, “Yun Liu, you’ve been in the top ten trending searches for ten consecutive days! Three magazines have come with intentions of working with us in these past two days alone! I hope Yun Nan will spend more time shooting her film and keep her mouth shut longer. It’s awesome that we didn’t even have to spend a single cent to make you a trending search topic.”

Yun Liu frowned and asked, “Do we still not know who their new lead actress

With their current success, Miss Ding didn’t care about that substitute actress anymore and commented, “It doesn’t matter who the female lead is now. They’re keeping her a secret right now, but they can’t continue to do so when the movie is released, can they? When the time comes, we’ll dig up dirt on her or create some if we can’t find any! But, hey, who doesn’t have a dirty secret or two? Why would she join the entertainment industry if she’s truly such a clean and honest girl?”

Yun Liu’s frown deepened as she replied, “I don’t want her to complete her movie. Do you understand?”

Miss Ding quickly stopped smiling at Yun Liu’s serious expression and offered, “Then I’ll work something out. I’ll send some people to that movie’s filming locations and have them mingle with the people there.” Yun Liu didn’t say anything, but Miss Ding knew she had acquiesced to her plan, so she added, “The rumors about you and Chairman Shi have spread far and wide. It’ll be much easier for us to promote our new show riding this wave of popularity.”

“Why isn’t the script ready yet?” Yun Liu groused, her mood inexplicably irritable.

“It’ll be ready soon! Very soon! It’s going through its final revision. This script is tailor-made for you! Our ace scriptwriter and director—Director Zhang—will personally direct it so you just sit and wait to receive your award. We’re going to use the entire company’s resources to make you into a top actress!” Miss Ding cheerily assured.

Yun Liu’s temper eased, and she inquired, “Where’s my brother? Why haven’t I seen him recently? What’s he so busy with?” She hadn’t seen Yun Zhang at home recently.

“Oh, he’s probably busy finding funds. It took a lot out of the company to Day Yun Nan’s compensation fee, so Mr. Yun is pitching our company to investors. Speaking of which, Mr. Yun certainly dotes on you twenty-four-seven. I wish I had an elder brother like that, though I doubt anyone can measure up to him.” Everyone knew how well Yun Zhang treated Yun Liu.

Yun Liu didn’t know why, but she suddenly felt uneasy.. The company, their family, and Yun Nan were involved in such a big public commotion, so why didn’t Yun Zhang react to it at all? With that foolish kindness of his, he couldn’t be indifferent to everything that was happening now!
