After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity

Chapter 436: Chapter 431: Let’s See What Bai Zhong Can Do for Shen Ning

“I’m your boyfriend, and it’s only right that I do these things. Don’t you want to get justice for your brother? I can help you with that too,” Bai Zhong said eagerly, wanting to prove that he could also be of help to the Shen Family.

But Shen Ning furrowed her brows, “Bai Zhong, don’t get involved, it won’t be good for the Bai Family. Promise me, don’t let Shen City do anything to her. The Bai Family won’t be able to withstand the consequences. If you still consider me your girlfriend, then don’t do anything.”

Bai Zhong tightened his grip, “Okay, I’ll listen to you, but you also can’t hurt yourself trying to get justice. Otherwise, I’d risk everything of the Bai Family to demand justice from Shen Yan.”

Shen Ning tried to force a strained smile, “I won’t get hurt. My parents will protect me; they won’t let me be harmed.”

She was dearly loved by her parents.

The day after meeting with Bai Zhong, Director Du suddenly called to say that someone else was given the role. As he spoke, Director Du hesitated and sounded very apologetic.

Detecting Director Du’s difficulty, Liu Su’s face fell. He didn’t blame Director Du; he just wanted to know who was stealing resources from Shen Yan behind the scenes.

Anyone bold enough to snatch resources from Shen Yan was certainly not a simple character.

Upon hearing that the role had gone to Zhang Yu, Liu Su’s expression darkened further.

Zhang Yu was friends with Shen Yan, and yet someone deliberately handed the role to Zhang Yu. The meaning was clear, even to a three-year-old child.

It was an attempt to create discord!

Director Du didn’t say it outright, but his helplessness was apparent.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Su thought of Shen Yan, who was still unaware of the situation, and with a dark face, he asked his staff to follow the little clue provided by Director Du and investigate.

Liu Su did not pick up Shen Yan from school today.

When Shen Yan got home, Liu Su told her the news.

“Director Du initially chose you as the female lead, but this role was suddenly given to Zhang Yu, who didn’t even audition – that’s highly unusual. There’s significant malice behind it, intending to drive a wedge between you.”

“How has Sister Zhang Yu responded?” asked Shen Yan.

“Word is that Zhang Yu has refused, but she hasn’t outright rejected it yet,” meaning someone was pressuring Zhang Yu, forcing her to take the role.

“Considering this, there’s no need to fight for it any longer. The role also suits Sister Zhang Yu,” Shen Yan commented.

“But we can’t just let this go.”

“The competition in the entertainment industry has always been like this. Uncle Liu, don’t be too obstinate. This way, I can also take a break and focus on my studies.”

Shen Yan did not mind at all that the unofficial role had been taken away.

Of course, she would have minded if someone else had taken the role.

Liu Su heard this and didn’t say much further, “We have looked into it, and it’s the Bai Family pulling the strings.”

Yesterday, Bai Zhong was inviting Shen Yan, and today he’s stealing her resources – what does the Bai Family mean by this?

When Shen Yan heard this answer, she wasn’t very surprised.

Then she remembered what Bai Zhong had said and reminded Liu Su, “Uncle Liu, we should still be prepared for the release of this movie.”

“Are you worried that the Bai Family will take this opportunity to suppress and smear you?” Liu Su’s brows furrowed tightly, “What benefit would that have for them? It’s their own investment in the movie; the Bai Family wouldn’t be that foolish, would they?”

Shen Yan’s smile was somewhat chill, “Maybe, but the Bai Family is willing to take this loss. That amount of money is but a drop in the bucket for them.”

For Shen Ning’s sake, Bai Zhong was willing to go to such lengths, enough to show how deeply he loved Shen Ning.

But whether the other members of the Bai Family were willing to go that far for a Shen Ning was another matter.

Shen Yan’s eyes grew colder.

Zhang Yu called Shen Yan to mention the matter of Director Du inviting her to play the female lead in that movie.

“Shen Yan, I didn’t…” steal your resources.

Before she could finish speaking, Shen Yan smiled and said, “Sister Zhang Yu, go ahead and take it. I think that role suits you very well.”

“You’re not angry?”

“What’s there to be angry about? Director Du’s replacement means I wasn’t really suitable, and, moreover, the role wasn’t formally offered to me. Sister Zhang Yu isn’t stealing it from me, so don’t feel pressured, just be yourself. It’s a good opportunity for me to take time to catch up on my school work.”

It was clear that Shen Yan truly didn’t mind, but Zhang Yu herself felt it was rather underhanded.

“Are you in Shen City? Can we find a chance to meet up?” asked Zhang Yu.

“That’s fine, but you don’t need to come over just for that, Sister Zhang Yu. I genuinely hope you can take on this drama.”

“Shen Yan, is someone behind this trying to…”

“They think they can create a rift between us, but we mustn’t fall for it.”

Zhang Yu took a deep breath, “Okay, I understand. Shen Yan, we’re good friends, no one can pull us apart. Such tactics are just despicable.”

“With those words from Sister Zhang Yu, I can rest easy,” Shen Yan smiled. “When you come over, I’ll treat you to a meal.”

Only then did Zhang Yu remember something and asked, “What about your husband?”

“No need for him to step in, I can handle it,” Shen Yan knew what Zhang Yu was hinting at.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yu called her own agent to discuss the situation.

Her agent took on the drama.

Zhang Yu, worried about Shen Yan being continuously targeted, contacted Su Huai and others to discuss how to handle this situation.

Following the removal of her role, Shen Yan lost several advertising deals.

Liu Su laughed in frustration, “Does the Bai Family not realize your connection with your husband? Yet they dare to trip you up so blatantly.”

“It’s just child’s play, not worth fussing over. I’m not taking any appearances lately,” Shen Yan paused before adding to Liu Su, “Let’s not take any action for now, let’s just wait and see.”

Wait and see what?

They had gone this far, and if Star Language Media didn’t retaliate, the Bai Family would think they were pushovers.

Liu Su could hardly contain his anger, but Shen Yan remained as steady as an old dog.

Shen Yan wanted to see just how far Bai Zhong could go.

These tricks were really nothing to her.

*

Bai Zhong’s family couldn’t understand why Bai Zhong insisted on doing this. Suppressing Shen Yan brought no benefits to the Bai Family.

The variety shows and advertisements previously brought substantial profits to the Bai Family, and now Bai Zhong was here sabotaging their interests – it was madness.

Bai Zhong couldn’t explain it to them.

Saying it was for Shen Ning would definitely lower Shen Ning’s standing in their eyes and prompt blame towards her.

So, to protect Shen Ning, Bai Zhong simply said that Shen Yan had offended him.

The Bai Family members were incredulous.

In their eyes, Bai Zhong was not someone petty.

It was inconceivable that he would do something so childish over a trivial matter.

Liu Su might have held off from doing anything to the Bai Family, but he could lodge a complaint!

He reported it to Qi Si, and by that same evening, the Bai Family suffered a blow in their business dealings, shocking them to their core. They couldn’t understand who would dare to target them so boldly, forcing the Bai Family to convene an emergency meeting overnight to avert a business crisis!

Bai Zhong, sensing what had occurred, felt his face darken.
