Chapter 424: Cold-faced Beauty

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Even when they returned to the company, Huang Yue was still thinking about Wen Nian and Wang Bing’s departing backs.

Suddenly, her phone rang. She was shocked. When she saw that it was Director Wu, she composed herself and picked up the phone gently.

“Yue Yue, have you gotten off the plane?” Wu Gang’s voice seemed to have a hint of gentleness. “There’s a social event tonight. You and Hao Ting come over.”

At the thought of the disgusting middle-aged men at the table every time she went to socialize, Huang Yue felt a little uncomfortable. However, when she thought of how Wen Nian had come to the capital today, she raised her eyebrows.

“No problem. Director Wu will definitely go with me. I’ll bring Hao Ting too. Don’t worry.”

After hanging up the phone, Huang Yue walked straight to the dressing room in a corner on the third floor of the company. This was a public dressing room. Almost all celebrities who were not famous used this dressing room.

Xia Tian had a lot of work to do in the summer, and there were many people coming and going here. No one noticed the expressionless Hao Ting in the corner.

When Huang Yue walked in, the staff greeted her warmly. When Hao Ting saw her, she cowered and looked a little panicked.

Huang Yue said to her gently, “Haoting, come out with me for a while. We have a job.”

Hao Ting instinctively shook her head, but when she saw Huang Yue frowning, she quickly followed her out.

“W-why are you looking for me?” Hao Ting’s body was trembling, and her voice was trembling.

“Director Wu has a social event tonight and wants you there. Dress up properly and don’t act like a dead person!” Huang Yue pointed at her forehead impatiently.

Hearing Director Wu call her, Hao Ting’s body trembled even more, and the color on her face faded. “I… I’m not feeling well today. Today… Can I not go?” “Do you think you can?” Huang Yue smiled and said, “Hao Ting, do you still think you’re the eldest daughter of the Hao family? If it weren’t for Director Wu, your parents would have gone to jail. How dare you disobey Director Wu?” Hao Ting’s tears flowed down. She kept shaking her head, but she could not say a word.

The Hao family is completely finished; there’s no more Hao family in the capital.

The company of the Hao family was found to have numerous financial issues, including tax evasion, bribery, and other crimes. The incident where Hao Ting falsely accused Wen Nian was also brought to light, and the talent agency had no intention of protecting her.

However, at this critical moment, Wu Gang intervened. Although he couldn’t save the Hao family, he coerced and tempted Hao Ting’s assistant to take the blame, ensuring that Hao Ting herself escaped unscathed.

Unfortunately, in exchange for her safety, Hao Ting became Wu Gang’s plaything. To be precise, she became Wu Gang’s commodity—having a bit of fame, a bit of allure, but most importantly, being young and submissive, regardless of the situation.

With disdain, Huang Yue gave a few instructions and then left to change her clothes.

When they arrived at the private room, there were already a few small celebrities and a few pot-bellied CEOs inside.

“Yue Yue, come over quickly.” Wu Gang was already hugging a small celebrity. “If you’re late, you’ll have to drink three glasses as punishment.”

Huang Yue skillfully walked to the group of CEOs and began to toast. Hao Ting sat stiffly beside Wu Gang, drinking expressionlessly.

Wu Gang didn’t bother with her either; he found her interesting initially, with a bit of resistance adding flavor. However, as time went on, she became more apathetic, so Wu Gang handed her over to others, treating her as a plaything. Meanwhile, Huang Yue, with skillful movements, began mentioning Wen Nian, “I came on the plane with Wen Nian today. Oh my, she’s not favored in the company, still flying economy class.”

Hearing that Wen Nian had also come to the capital, Wu Gang paused for a moment. Of course, he knew that he had offended Young Master Shen, who was behind Wen Nian last time, which caused the project in his hands to be delayed.

He held the wine glass angrily and tightened his grip on Hao Ting’s waist. When Hao Ting heard that Wen Nian had come to the capital, she thought of what her father had said. She felt resentful, but she also had a faint hope. Seeing that Wu Gang remained silent, Huang Yue whispered again, “She came alone this time, and Shen Jun isn’t with her. Wang Bing came to pick her up.” “Wang Bing?” Wu Gang suddenly narrowed his eyes, thinking of Wang Bing’s beautiful face and enticing figure. He swallowed hard, “Is she related to Wen Nian?”

At this point, a slightly drunk executive beside them hugged Huang Yue’s waist, “Don’t you remember? Wang Bing is the female lead in Director Xu’s new movie. Oh, she has charm; I love her poker-faced expression! Didn’t Director Wu also have high expectations for her?”

Huang Yue leaned directly into the executive’s embrace and softly asked, “Director Wu, do you know Wang Bing? I saw her today; she truly is a cold beauty!”
