Ning Yan also wanted to drink; not to celebrate, but to vent. Although she does not like the lead actress of the TV series, she likes her subject—it is very inspiring despite being a teen idol drama. He was really reluctant to give up.

"Who are you going to drink to?" Ning Yan thought that the Xiao Family should be busy at the moment.

Something suddenly appeared to Ning Yan and he asked, "Are you reading the news? About the Xiao brothers being branded by the reporters when they accompanied Xiao Rou to watch the movie last night?”

He Wanyi shook his head. He had recorded the scene last night and had no idea Xiao Yao was branded by the reporters. "What's going on?" He hurriedly pulled out his phone and searched for news.

But he did not find anything related to this matter. "No news of that."

Ning Yan looked at He Wanyi and said flatly, "Of course there is nothing right now. I happened to see it when I was looking for online news—just three minutes passed and no more news about them going to the movies on the internet. Also, it is reported that Hongguang Entertainment has been closed by the court due to bribery and tax evasion.”

"Is it about the Xiao brothers reported by Hongguang Entertainment?" He Wanyi was surprised.

Ning Yan nodded and replied, “Yes, so you should be able to find out how well the Xiao brothers are protecting Xiao Rou. You better not ask them out for a drink now. They should be under the watchful eye of journalists. In addition, you are also a famous star who is always followed by a swarm of paparazzi. If you were photographed staying with Xiao Rou, it would be the headlines. Maybe you'll get caught up in the big show of the Xiao.” Family

He Wanyi thinks he's right. Xiao Rou and her brother were probably hiding from the reporters. It was better that he did not ask Xiao Rou to come out until this matter was over.

Ning Yan said, "But I'm not in the mood to celebrate with you today. I have decided to stop being a director and become an actor instead.”

With raised eyebrows, He Wanyi asked, "Director Ning will take my job?"

"Take your job?" Ning Yan snorted arrogantly. "I can't be an actress, okay?" She pulled her hair back and walked out.

Looking at the noisy studio, He Wanyi realized for the first time that this was not a set but a source of gossip and crime. He smiled and thought this might be the last day he would be here.

As soon as Ning Yan exited the film studio, a large number of cameras were directed towards him.

“Director Ning, what do you think about the scandal about the lead actress of your drama series? Will you continue to let Miss Xiao Jinning become the lead actress?”

“Director Ning, it is said that you did not like Xiao Jinning from the beginning. Do you know about what happened between Xiao Jinning and the Xiao Family before it was reported?"

"Can you say something to us, Director Ning?"

"Director Ning, is Xiao Jinning here today?"

Listening to their questions, Ning Yan raised his hand and the journalists instantly fell silent. Ning Yan said, “I won't answer any questions about Xiao Jinning, and I don't know if the producer will fire Xiao Jinning or not. What I want to say is that Xiao Jinning is still the lead actress of this drama right now, but I, Ning Yan, will resign from it.”

The crowd immediately became an uproar. The journalists exchanged glances before they all rushed over to Ning Yan. "Director Ning, is it because of Xiao Jinning?"

"Director Ning, you mean you gave up on the drama?"

"Director Ning, 'When We Were Young' is your first TV series since you recorded the last two years ago. Are you really going to give up?"

"Director Ning, are you still going to be filming a TV series in the future?"

"Director Ning, if the producer replaces the lead actress, will you be returning to direct this TV series?"

Ning Yan frowned and replied, "As for my company."

That's why he. After all, He Wanzhou had made her do it, so it was only natural that she would answer these questions for him.

A journalist with a sharp perception immediately came over and asked him, "Director Ning, you mean your company's decision to stop this TV series?"

Ning Yan raised his eyebrows. “When did I say that? I'm just saying it's up to my company whether I can go back.” Then when he started walking, he said, “OK, here's my answer. Excuse me."

Ning Yan's receding figure looked resolute. The other cast members hated Xiao Jinning so much. Did he know how hard they tried to get the chance to cooperate with Director Ning? Now their efforts are being destroyed by him. "Why didn't Director Ning fire Xiao Jinning instead of quitting?”

As soon as Ning Yan left, the journalists swarmed the studio and started interviewing the crew ...

The crew told them that there was no scene of Xiao Jinning being directed by Ning Yan himself and they were not surprised that Ning Yan chose to retreat, either, because Ning Yan considered Xiao Jinning's acting skills to be lame from the start. Ning Yan did not even look at her when she was filming the scene.

He Wanyi, who had escaped through the back door, looked at the crazy journalists by shaking his head and said to his little assistant, "These journalists work too hard."

Xiao Jinning, who was all wrapped up and standing in the middle of the crowd, stared at the big screen on the street and clenched her hands. 'Fuck! This was all because of Xiao Rou. It was all because of that little bastard that Chengyu did this to me and Mom and Dad kicked me out!'

'Xiao Rou! Xiao Rou's! Why do you keep fighting me, pushing me to this point!'

He was no longer a dazzling star, but a street rat. He even had to wrap himself up every time he came out!

Xiao Jinning could not help but tremble as she listened to Ning Yan's reply to the reporters' questions. "I'll make you pay for what you did to me!"

On the other hand, Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing found Tang Xi in the park not far from her school. The two brothers' faces were still bruised black and blue, but they had applied medicine, so they wore pecis and masks. Looking at the car parked on the road, they exchanged glances and exclaimed together, "This girl is driving without a SIM!" How dare he!

Tang Xi did not know what they were thinking. Seeing them coming, he rushed to greet them. “There are too many journalists at the school gate. Are there many reporters outside our home?”
