The male reporter was scheming as well. He first said that Zhang Kaiwei was hospitalized for pneumonia and that his condition was serious. Then, he took out the disc and whetted everyone's appetite.
Under such circumstances, the audience would usually sympathize with the weak. Since he had evidence to back up his claims, he was able to gain the upper hand in an instant.
"What kind of evidence is it? Why don't we show it to everyone!"
Immediately, someone began to shout noisily, and the echoes also became continuous.
Abbess Yun Miao had been standing quietly at the side of the venue. She thought that the matter had settled down, and she was even happy that her granddaughter had grown up. She didn't expect a clown to jump out and mess things up!
For a moment, Abbess Yun Miao was furious. She turned around and signaled to the head of the security team. The head of the security team understood and ordered two security guards to chase the troublemaking reporter away.
But before the two security guards could get close, the male reporter pointed at them and shouted, "Everyone, did you see that?! They're asking the security guards to chase me out! That's what a guilty conscience looks like! "
At that moment, all the reporters were filled with righteous indignation. The scene was chaotic.
Abbess Yun Miao's face darkened. She didn't expect the matter to be so difficult to solve. She didn't know what to do even if she was anxious.
Hui Lin stood up and raised her voice. "Everyone, please be quiet. I'm willing to look at the evidence on the disc. I guarantee that if it's real, I won't lie in front of so many people. After all, there were many witnesses at the scene."
The reporters finally quietened down. The male reporter sneered and walked up with a righteous expression. He inserted the disc into the broadcasting equipment and turned on the projector.
Soon, a video appeared on the big screen. It was Zhang Kaiwei, sitting on the hospital bed with an IV drip. His face was pale as a sheet.
Zhang Kaiwei's voice was extremely weak, but everyone could still hear him clearly.
During the interview, the male reporter asked, "Mr. Zhang, can you reconstruct the real situation at the filming site?"
"Yes." Zhang Kaiwei nodded weakly. "That day, our filming was going smoothly. However, there was a dispute over whether or not we should have an actor perform a kissing scene. In my opinion, if a stunt double were to be used in that scene, it would lose the beauty of the scene. That's why I suggested to perform with Miss Lin Hui in the spirit of professionalism …
I am a professional actor. I am disgusted by people acting with personal emotions. I feel that since we have chosen to act in a film, we should give ourselves to the film and the director. We shouldn't ruin a film for personal reasons... "
Zhang Kaiwei spoke to the point that glistening tears started to form in his eyes, and he seemed to be extremely indignant.
Many reporters at the scene also showed sympathetic and appreciative expressions. After all, they were also in the entertainment industry and knew that it was not easy for actors.
"I didn't expect Miss Lin Hui to refuse to film just because I objected to the filming. What angered me even more was that a man who claimed to be the director of Yu Lei Entertainment came to visit Lin Hui with gifts. When he found out that we were arguing about the kissing scene, he used violence to beat me up …
I am just an artist without a powerful background. They ganged up on me and threatened to beat me up on the spot if I didn't do as they asked and record a fake video to frame them …
I only found out later that this man was not only the director of Yu Lei Entertainment, but also the husband of Yu Lei's CEO, Lin Ruoxi. At that time, I was very confused as to why he would visit Lin Hui alone. Moreover, the two of them were very close. How could he use violence against me because of Lin Hui? I really didn't expect … "
…
In front of the television in Zhonghai, Lin Ruoxi's face turned pale when she saw the scene.
Yang Cheng frowned. He wanted to send the video to Yan Jin immediately and destroy the venue. However, he couldn't do that. If he used violence, it would only cause a huge uproar.
He was not afraid of anyone in the world. He could do whatever he wanted regardless of whether he was innocent or not. However, that didn't mean that Hui Lin or his family could do the same.
"Is what he said … true?" Lin Ruoxi asked with a trembling voice.
Yang Cheng let out a deep sigh and shook his head. "Half of it. He was the one who started it. He insisted on kissing Hui Lin. However, didn't we agree before that we weren't allowed to act in intimate scenes? He was being unreasonable with me at that time, so I beat him up. I didn't expect him to say anything when he was seriously ill. "
Lin Ruoxi didn't doubt his words. After all, she remembered that when they signed the contract, it was stated that Hui Lin was not allowed to act in intimate scenes.
As for suspecting that Yang Cheng and Hui Lin were having an affair, she knew it very well. Naturally, she wouldn't think too much about it. She was the one who mentioned it when Yang Cheng visited her at the set.
"What should we do now? The situation over there is very disadvantageous for Hui Lin," Lin Ruoxi said worriedly.
Yang Cheng furrowed his brows. He couldn't come up with a solution.
"I don't know. No matter what I say now, the situation is against Hui Lin. No one will believe me …"
…
At the press conference in Beijing, Hui Lin's face darkened. Facing the questioning gazes of the reporters and the flashing lights, her eyes were filled with complex emotions.
After playing the video, the male reporter said proudly, "Alright, Miss Lin Hui. Everyone here is an expert in distinguishing the authenticity of my evidence. I'm sure you all know very well that my evidence is authentic.
I'm really curious. Is this really the only relationship between you and your 'brother-in-law'? Why did he visit you at the set alone? Why did he abuse a famous artist in broad daylight just because of your kissing scene?!
From what I know, you were the one who accompanied your 'brother-in-law' out of the set that day. There were quite a number of people in the set as witnesses. Your relationship must be really good. "
The male reporter fanned the flames, causing the atmosphere to reach its climax. The other entertainment media couldn't be bothered to care whether it was true or not. In short, the more explosive the news, the more popular it would be!
Abbess Yun Miao, who was standing at the side, had a murderous look in her eyes. She had made up her mind. Once the press conference was over, even if she had to be suspected by the public, she would still kill this male reporter with her own hands!
Seeing her only precious granddaughter receiving so many mocking gazes, Abbess Yun Miao could even feel her heart bleeding.
…
In front of the television, Yang Cheng clenched his fists.
"Ruoxi, I have to go to Beijing. If this goes on, Hui Lin won't be able to take it. This started because of me, I should be the one to solve it," Yang Cheng said.
Before Yang Cheng could leave, Lin Ruoxi grabbed him forcefully and said anxiously, "You want to go to the scene? Are you crazy? If you go now, not only will everyone suspect how you got to Beijing in an instant, you'll only add fuel to the fire! Can you shut everyone's mouths? Will they believe your explanation? "
Yang Cheng was stunned. It wasn't that he didn't know that his efforts would be in vain if he went. But looking at Hui Lin facing all the media alone on the television, his heart couldn't help but twitch.
She didn't get anything from him. All she got was silent rejection. All he did was make her fall into heartache.
But now, because of him, she was going to be scolded and mocked by so many people.
Yang Cheng suddenly felt lost. Was his attitude towards Hui Lin right or wrong? Was it for her own good or did it harm her?
…
Before Yang Chen could sort out the thoughts in his head, Hui Lin stood up in silence at the scene of the press conference.
In front of all the cameras and entertainment media, Hui Lin looked as though she was facing rows of gun muzzles. She revealed a faint and shy smile.
The press conference quietened down. Everyone was confused and amazed by the girl's sudden and elegant smile.
Hui Lin heaved a sigh of relief, pursed his thin lips, and bowed slightly to everyone.
"I'm sorry that I've caused trouble to those who support me. I know that after today, I might not be able to be active on the stage and on the television anymore.
But I hope that everyone can listen to me quietly. I'll explain my relationship with my sister and brother-in-law. This way, everyone can understand why this happened. "
After a short pause, Hui Lin seemed to have mustered all her courage. She faced everyone and said in a clear voice, "Yes, I like my brother-in-law."
