Chapter 144: Change of Opinion

Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Despite Wen Nian’s relative obliviousness, she couldn’t help but sense that something was amiss. They continued chatting for another half hour before bidding farewell.

Wen Nian and Zheng Mo found themselves walking in the same direction after parting ways with Bai Zheng. However, Bai Zheng took a different route, heading off in another direction as he bid them farewell.

Wen Nian nudged Zheng Mo with her elbow and asked curiously, “What’s going on between you and Bai Zheng?”

Zheng Mo snorted. “There’s nothing going on. He’s very elegant. How can he have anything to do with a violent person like me?”

Wen Nian chuckled. “Is this Bai Zheng’s impression of you?”

When Zheng Mo heard this, she raised her fist and gestured. “He wouldn’t dare!”

“I simply can’t tolerate his pretense of being noble and virtuous. What’s the big deal about his fame? He claims that 1 create works solely based on my personal preferences, but behind closed doors, isn’t it all about making profits? It would be better if he just admitted it outright; at least that would show some honesty. I would actually have more respect for him in that case.”

Wen Nian was perplexed by these words. While she didn’t have a particularly close relationship with Bai Zheng, her interactions with him had revealed a side of him that was both reserved and passionate.

Wen Nian spoke in a soft voice to defend Bai Zheng. “Is there a misunderstanding between the two of you? From what I’ve observed, Bai Zheng doesn’t strike me as someone who is two-faced.”

Zheng Mo placed her hand on Wen Nian’s shoulder, expressing a mix of concern and frankness. “You’re incredibly innocent and kind-hearted, which is why someone like Huang Yue was able to deceive you. 1 had the opportunity to meet Huang Yue at a gala before, and within just a few minutes, I could sense her adeptness at feigning vulnerability to manipulate others and achieve her own objectives.”

Drawing from her past life experiences, Wen Nian had developed a sense of trust in her own judgment in this life. Observing Zheng Mo’s strong bias against Bai Zheng, she realized that further discussion might be futile. She recognized that even individuals with good character might not necessarily get along well with one another.

Due to the late filming schedule, Xu Chang could only board the plane close to midnight. As a result, he could only arrange to meet Wen Nian at the hotel where the press conference was scheduled to take place, three hours prior to the event. The limited time frame left them with little opportunity for leisurely interaction before the press conference began.

At 9 a.m., the press conference commenced, and an impressive turnout of 50 to 60 media companies was present. For a student like Wen Nian, who had recently entered the entertainment industry, this level of attention and coverage was undoubtedly a significant milestone and an awe-inspiring experience.

Wen Nian made a deliberate choice not to dress up and instead attended the press conference in her usual student attire. This decision aligned with her current status and allowed people to perceive her as approachable and unassuming. By maintaining the image of a pure and harmless female student, she tapped into the inclination of people to sympathize with the vulnerable. It was a strategic move, as individuals tend to be more patient and tolerant towards those they like and empathize with.

In this day and age, there were no live broadcasts. Instead, they used traditional interview methods such as video recording and taking photos.

The press conference lasted for two hours, followed by the promised exclusive interview time.

By the time the press conference concluded, it was already noon. In an era where efficiency equated to valuable time, the latest news surrounding Wen Nian had rapidly spread across the internet by 5 p.m.

The combination of the press conference’s revelations and the release of the surveillance video footage from the previous night had propelled Wen Nian’s popularity to new heights.

[Some media outlets can be truly distasteful. Wen Nian expressed her belief in the significance of portraying the theme of anti-school bullying through her acting. The director recognized the suitability of her image and proactively approached her to play the lead role. However, when certain media outlets reported on it, they twisted her words, implying that Wen Nian found bullying entertaining and that the director approved of her acting as herself. It is truly remarkable how these outlets can distort facts with such skill. They make me, a student majoring in Mandarin Chinese, feel ashamed of my writing skills.]

[Hahaha, to the student majoring in Chinese language: One must lose their conscience before engaging in such acts of distorting the truth.]

[The most disgusting person is still that person called Huang Yue. She really stabbed Wen Nian in the back!]

[Some people are evil for no reason! They are born evil!]

[That’s right! My heart aches for Sister Wen Nian!]

[Wen Nian’s encounter with such a classmate was truly unfortunate. This individual led her astray for a whole year, but fortunately, she managed to find her way back. Otherwise, her entire life could have been irreparably ruined by the influence of that malicious woman!]

[As someone who was in the same class as Wen Nian, it’s surprising to discover such insider information. Back in our first year of school, 1 remember noticing that while Wen Nian had a slightly fiery temper, she was also a straightforward person. Reflecting on it now, 1 realize that Huang Yue subtly influenced our perception of Wen Nian, painting her as violent and unsociable.]

As soon as this insider news was released, everyone started to change their opinion of Wen Nian, the victim.

At this moment, Wen Nian and the others had already returned to the capital.

As Xu Chang checked the trending topics on his phone while on the way to the set, he couldn’t help but feel relieved by the positive response on the internet. A smile adorned his face as he turned to Wen Nian and commented, “It seems that everyone’s discerning eye has recognized the truth. Fortunately, this incident didn’t cause any harm, and it’s a pleasant bonus that you’ve gained some popularity in the process..”
