Chapter 2639: Ji Lin's Rare Display of GentlenessChapter 2639: Ji Lin’s Rare Display of Gentleness
“Things will only get worse if this goes on.”
“I know,” said the actress, feeling troubled, “but I don’t know what I should do or how I should explain things to the public when I did none of the things they’re accusing me of. It’s ridiculous how they want an innocent party to come up with evidence to prove their innocence.”
“Fans can be very blind at times because they judge only with what they hear or see. Now that they’ve formed an opinion, they’ll think you’re just making excuses no matter how hard you try to explain yourself; it’ll be hard for them to believe your words again. Your pretty face is your advantage as well as your flaw. Women make up the majority of the fanbase, so they’ll instinctively find faults or flaws in beautiful ladies like you; do you understand what I’m saying?”
She nodded and hummed in acknowledgment. “Yes.”

“I didn’t expect things to become so serious, though.”
“You didn’t expect it at all?”
The producer proceeded to open a drawer, pull out a stack of letters, and spread them in front of her.
She was surprised to see all the letters. “What are these?”
“These are your fan mails—rather your anti-fan mails. They contain dead rats, knife blades, and other disgusting stuff.”
Right from the start, Ji Yan hired the most top-notch PR team to work on this scandal. One must admit that the PR team really had got some brilliant moves. Not only did they portray her as a victim of love, who tried to commit suicide by slitting her wrist, they also managed to smear Yun Shishi’s reputation and drag her to the mud.
Yun Shishi stared at the letters; some of which were still sealed. Despite so, she needed not imagine far to know the sort of malicious words these letters contained.
The fans must be hating me to the core and are terribly disappointed in me.
She initially thought of taking this chance to step down from acting and leave this industry, but in hindsight, she could not help thinking, Won’t it be too cowardly of me?
I did nothing wrong, but if I announce my retirement from the industry, it’ll be as good as owning up to the matter as if I have something on my conscience.
Why should I quit showbiz when I didn’t do anything wrong?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe one who’s done wrong is Ji Yan. If anything, it should be her who ought to leave the industry.
It was because of this ball of anger that she had managed to hold out for so long amid all the slanders.
She had never once told her husband about her feelings, but since he had told her that he would settle everything, she chose to bear with all the insults and patiently wait for the day the truth finally came out.
Upon seeing this stack of hate letters, however, her walls finally crumbled. The grievances she had endured for days all turned into tears, but she stubbornly bit her bottom lip and refused to let them flow.
“I’m so sorry for all the trouble I’ve caused the company.” The actress offered her most sincere apologies to the head producer. She felt that she had caused the company to bear such a huge burden due to her not handling private affairs properly.
A rare look of helplessness and heartache surfaced on Ji Lin’s aloof visage when he noticed the artist’s remorseful expression. He could not help thinking if he had been a tad too strict and impatient with the young lady.
To the actress, he was a strict teacher and a fatherly figure, who rarely smiled and had strict as well as high expectations of her, while to him, she was the most well-behaved and sincerest artist the company had, executing his orders well despite her being a magnet for trouble.
