Capítulo 1

Chapter 1

Inside a restroom stall at M TV station, Xiao Yan hung up the phone call from the magazine.

The magazine staff's perfunctory attitude and cold words kept replaying in Xiao Yan's mind, her face turned ashen, and anger simmered in her chest.

With only an hour left before the show was to be recorded, and unable to linger any longer, Xiao Yan could only suppress her anger for the time being.

She unlatched the door and was about to go out when she heard two TV station staff members walk in.

"Hey, did you know that Lin Leyao is going to record a show in the next studio today?"

"I know. I saw her in the lobby when she first came to the station. She's even more beautiful in person than on TV, and she has a great personality. It's a pity she has too many scandals."

"I just finished reading the 'third floor' post on the forum last week. She's amazing. She's a homewrecker. She was publicly criticized by Director Lu's wife on Weibo when she first debuted. Half a year ago, a staff member from Z TV revealed that she was having an ambiguous relationship with Lin Haishu on set. At the time, her company issued a statement denying it, but in the end, photos of the two of them entering a hotel together were still taken. With so much dirt on her, how come she still gets so many acting offers?"

"She must have a sugar daddy behind her, otherwise how could she have landed the lead role in a big-budget TV series with a 500 million yuan investment right after her debut?"

"Damn, I used to like her when she first debuted. She's disgusting!"

The phone suddenly rang in the restroom, startling the two staff members, whose faces turned deathly pale.

"There's someone here!"

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

The two staff members left in a hurry.

Inside the stall, Xiao Yan's fingers, gripping the door latch, had turned white. She hung up the phone, and the entire bathroom fell completely silent.

At the entrance to the lounge, looking at the large characters "Lin Leyao's Lounge" on the door, Xiao Yan took a few deep breaths, calmed herself down, and pushed the door open to go inside.

In front of the dressing mirror in the lounge, a woman in a silk robe was sitting with her back to Xiao Yan, having her hair styled by a stylist.

The woman, who had been keeping her eyes closed, opened them when she heard the door open and greeted me with a smile, "Sister Yan, you've been in the bathroom for so long! My makeup was already done."

Seeing the stylist there, Xiao Yan didn't mention what she had overheard in the bathroom. She glanced at Lin Leyao's face reflected in the mirror and absentmindedly praised, "This makeup looks pretty good today."

"Hmm. Isn't it because I'm good-looking?"

As the hairstyling was nearing completion, the stylist was spraying hairspray on Lin Leyao's hair. Hearing Lin Leyao's words, he couldn't help but laugh and say, "Teacher Leyao, your face is really beautiful. I've styled so many celebrities, but I'm always amazed when I see Teacher Leyao."

Hearing this, Lin Leyao joked, "Yu Yu, you're putting others down. If this gets out, other celebrities' fans will definitely tear you apart."

"Hurry up, hurry up, so I'll have a chance to stage an accident with you. Then, if no one else comes to me, I'll stick with you as my personal stylist."

Xiao Yan, who had been feeling quite down since returning from the restroom, was cheered up a bit by the cheerful atmosphere in the dressing room. Now she was in the mood to take a closer look at her artist's face.

Five years ago, Xiao Yan was certain that Lin Leyao would become famous after their first meeting. Lin Leyao's appearance was so striking and beautiful that even though she had been a manager for over ten years and had seen so many handsome men and beautiful women in the industry, she was still amazed when she first saw Lin Leyao.

At the time, Lin Leyao was only twenty years old, still a very young age. However, her appearance was stunningly beautiful, completely contrary to her age, and she was the kind of beautiful woman that the entertainment industry has been lacking in recent years.

She has naturally expressive eyes, with slightly upturned corners, a pert nose, and a delicate face; her features combine to create a unique charm. Her demeanor lacks the timidity of a typical newcomer; she exudes confidence and poise, possessing a far superior presence compared to the average newcomer.

At the time, more than one company in the industry wanted to sign Lin Leyao. In the end, Lin Leyao chose Xinghai Entertainment, and Xiao Yan became Lin Leyao's agent through the company's arrangement.

Five years passed in the blink of an eye. During these five years, the two of them spent most of their time together. After Xiao Yan fully experienced Lin Leyao's true personality for the first time, she realized that Lin Leyao would inevitably face many difficulties if she wanted to achieve her initial prediction of becoming a sensation.

The entertainment industry is a very social circle. After entering the entertainment industry, Lin Leyao never attended private drinking parties and rarely contacted other artists in private. As a result, she completely cut off many of her connections.

On the other hand, Lin Leyao has no background but has an attractive appearance, so naturally some people will have their eyes on her.

In fact, with Lin Leyao's looks, she could easily have a smooth career in the entertainment industry if she used a little cunning, and she would have no shortage of resources. However, she is not the type to resort to underhanded tactics. Moreover, if anyone in the industry tries to harm her, no matter how big a name they are, Lin Leyao is willing to confront them directly, and the consequence of such a confrontation would be that Lin Leyao would suffer a great setback.

When Lin Leyao first signed with the company, the company did not arrange for her to act in movies or TV series. Instead, they promoted her photos and videos on various platforms to leave an impression on netizens. Later, they arranged for her to appear on variety shows to increase her visibility.

In a variety show that tests acting skills, Lin Leyao appeared as a guest star, playing a minor role for a senior colleague from her own company. Unexpectedly, one of the directors and judges on the show took a liking to Lin Leyao and handed her a business card backstage.

Lin Leyao turned around and threw the business card into the trash can. Unexpectedly, the director did not give up. Two months later, he contacted the company directly through a person and wanted to invite Lin Leyao to dinner.

The president of Xinghai Entertainment is named Li Na, and she is in her early forties. She used to be a well-known agent in the industry before switching careers and starting her own film and television agency. Li Na is not the type of person who would force her artists to accompany others to meals and drinks. Of course, if her artists have a way to use this method to gain resources, she will not stop them.

When the director wanted to contact Lin Leyao, Li Na didn't interfere, and Xiao Yan found a way to deal with it.

Later, the company arranged for Lin Leyao to join the film crew. On the day of the opening banquet, Lin Leyao encountered the director who had been eyeing her for a long time at the restroom door, and the two had a conflict at the restroom door. The director's wife happened to come over and saw the director and Lin Leyao holding hands intimately, and was very angry.

No argument occurred at the time; the director was pulled away from the scene by his wife. Xiao Yan was unaware of this, but little did she know that a major event would occur three months later.

Three months later, the director's wife suddenly tagged Lin Leyao on Weibo, denouncing her as a mistress who seduced a married man.

Lin Leyao was young and impetuous at the time, and of course she was unwilling to be slandered, so she directly retorted.

As a result, while Xiao Yan learned what had happened in the restroom on the day of the filming opening ceremony, Lin Leyao, who had been filming for three months, was replaced and had to reshoot her scenes. Although it was a supporting role, this meant that Lin Leyao's first role in the entertainment industry ended in failure.

Offending a director is tantamount to offending his entire network of cronies in the industry, making Lin Leyao's path in the entertainment circle much more difficult. Fortunately, Xinghai Entertainment is not only a talent agency but also a film and television production company. After a six-month hiatus, Lin Leyao began playing the lead role in a TV series produced by the company itself.

Many people say that Lin Leyao's first film was a big-budget production with an investment of 500 million, but in fact, there was another role that was replaced and reshot by someone else and no one has paid attention to it.

Despite Lin Leyao's radiant beauty and captivating charm on television, no one knows that she is actually a quiet and reserved person in private, the complete opposite of her flamboyant and alluring personality.

Over the years, Xiao Yan hadn't had any detailed private conversations with Lin Leyao, but she felt that being replaced in a role right after her debut must have left a very serious impact on Lin Leyao.

Lin Leyao's principles remained unchanged, but Xiao Yan felt that after being taught a lesson by reality, she not only stopped interacting with people in the industry, but also became more withdrawn. It wasn't until the last two years that Xiao Yan felt she had gradually moved on from the experience and become much more outgoing.

Lin Leyao is beautiful, a film school student, and has good acting skills. After her first ancient costume fantasy drama aired, Lin Leyao gained many fans. However, the incident of "the director's wife scolding the mistress" gave Lin Leyao a lot of negative press and turned many people away.

Meanwhile, because Lin Leyao gained popularity, fans of other actresses in the same period felt threatened, and the stars' teams also mobilized a lot of online trolls to fabricate and spread negative information about Lin Leyao on various platforms, attempting to ruin her career completely.

Lin Leyao has risen to her current status as a popular actress, thriving in both film and television and commercial ventures, thanks to a series of scandals.

However, six months ago, for some unknown reason, the company turned down the film and television projects that Lin Leyao was in talks with. Later, her business resources were intercepted by others, and some business opportunities that came to her were also assigned to other artists in the company.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but recall the words she had overheard in the bathroom earlier, and her face turned pale and then red.

The stylist left the dressing room, leaving only the two of them. Lin Leyao sized up her manager several times and asked, "Why are you in such a bad mood after just going to the restroom?"

"Zen magazine just called and said that the sponsoring brand wants to put someone else on the magazine, and you've been replaced."

This situation has happened several times in the past six months, but Lin Leyao's expression remained indifferent. "If they've changed it, they've changed it. It's good for me to take a break."

"Miss!" Xiao Yan finally couldn't help but sigh, her face full of distress. "You're only twenty-five years old. You're not young, but you're not old either! You're so indifferent to losing business deals and film roles! If this continues, you'll disappear from the entertainment industry!"

Xiao Yan has said this more than once in the past six months, and every time Lin Leyao does, she purses her lips and remains silent, and this time is no exception.

Xiao Yan, who had been holding back her anger for a long time, complained non-stop, "Do you know what those TV station staff were saying about you behind your back when I went to the bathroom! You always think that facts speak louder than words, and that the innocent will clear themselves, and you don't care about those scandals, but this is the information society. Public opinion can bring a person fame and fortune, but it can also destroy a person."

Your haters are more rabid than the average actress. In this industry, if you have resources and are more famous than others, no matter how much they dislike you, they'll only dare to criticize you behind your back; in person, they'll fawn over you. But if you flop and your fans leave, those haters will skin you alive! People in the industry will always side with the famous; at that point, you won't even have a private dressing room, and they'll make sarcastic remarks to your face. Some will even use you to create buzz and generate hype for themselves. They don't care about your feelings if you're a flop!

After uttering a string of words, Xiao Yan paused to catch her breath. Seeing Lin Leyao's slender figure huddled alone in the chair, she softened her tone, "I'm not a pimp. I'm not saying all this to get you to go out and drink with people to get resources. I just hope you can talk to President Li. I heard from people at the company that your resources were downgraded after you talked back to President Li. If that's true, go apologize, okay?"

You know President Li's character. If she weren't genuinely promoting you, she wouldn't have let you act in those big-budget TV dramas with hundreds of millions in investment over the years. An apology would have been enough. If you don't film or attend events, do you really think your fans will wait that long? Also, the company has already arranged new talent for me, so I probably won't be able to accompany you to work as often anymore.”

A knock suddenly sounded at the door, and Assistant Xiaomi pushed the door open and came in. "Sister Yan, Sister Leyao, I'm back."

The conversation was interrupted, and Xiao Yan waved her hand dejectedly, "Forget it, think about it again."

Obsessive Romance vs. Gentle Possessiveness

Chapter 2

Holding several cups of milk tea, Xiaomi, completely unaware of the conversation between the two people inside, said with a smile, "Sister Leyao, the milk tea you ordered has been delivered. It's all placed in the corridor outside the control room, with notes on the wall. The staff have been picking it up one after another, and everyone is thanking you for the milk tea!"

Hearing Xiaomi's words, Xiao Yan thought of the complaints her staff had made behind her back, crossed her arms, and snorted coldly.

Xiaomi didn't notice Xiao Yan's unusual mood, nor did she notice any difference in her artist's demeanor compared to before. She placed the milk tea on the table and asked, "The director said we're going to the studio in half an hour. Sister Le Yao, do you want to change your clothes first?"

"Let's change it."

After Lin Leyao went into the dressing room and came out, she had changed out of her bathrobe into a silver sequined bodycon slip dress.

For this recording, each guest had to perform an opening dance with a host. Lin Leyao was assigned to dance a Latin dance with the male host. Her tight-fitting halter dress accentuated her perfect curves, revealing her fair skin, square shoulders, delicate collarbones, and graceful neck. Standing in front of the mirror, illuminated by the bright indoor lights, she resembled a proud and alluring white swan.

Looking at her artist's beautiful figure, Xiao Yan sighed. Such a promising talent, if she were to be ruined by those trashy people online, no matter how indifferent Lin Leyao was, she would tear those people apart.

The stylist returned quickly, and Lin Leyao stood in front of the mirror while the stylist carefully adjusted the details of her dress.

Suddenly, her phone on the table beeped. Lin Leyao opened her phone and was stunned when she saw who sent the message.

[Ms. Lin, this is the finished product made according to the design drawings you and Mr. Xin previously selected. Could you please take a look and see if there are any aspects that need modification?]

The other party sent me four pictures, showing four different styles of wedding dresses.

Lin Leyao's fingertips lingered on the phone's keyboard for a long time before she slowly exhaled and tapped the screen to reply.

Let me discuss it with Mr. Xin before making a decision.

【OK.】

The chat ended there. Lin Leyao clicked on a picture, and a high-end wedding dress designed by a famous designer appeared before her eyes. Lin Leyao's mind went blank for a while. At this moment, seeing the wedding dress, she finally had the real feeling that she was about to get married.

Lin Leyao tapped the screen to select a few photos and clicked "forward." Just as she was about to click on the recipient, she suddenly realized something and frantically clicked "back," exiting the chat with the designer.

This WeChat account belongs to Lin Leyao. She has very few WeChat friends on it. After exiting the chat page, you can immediately see Xin Ying at the top of the contact list.

It's been over three months since they added each other on WeChat, and they've never chatted. Their chat window is completely empty. It's hard to believe that two people who have had no private communication are about to get married.

Even Lin Leyao herself didn't expect that Xin Ying would agree to a marriage alliance with her.

Three months ago, my grandfather fell seriously ill and was admitted to the ICU that night.
