Chapter 297 Steamed Buns
Xie Yan looked at Tang Wan's confused expression, remembered Leng Yurou's eyes and actions when she looked at Shen Yan, and roughly understood what she meant.
However, Xie Yan did not tell Shen Yan that he liked her, but spoke slowly.
"Maybe she thinks you're easy to bully, and thinks that even if you know she did it, you won't dare to tell the truth to the public."
"After all... you did look pretty good in the early stages..."
Xie Yan glanced at her, turned his head and looked away without finishing his words.
Tang Wan immediately understood what he meant. It was because she was too timid in the early stages of the show that Leng Yurou thought she was an easy person to talk to.
After all, Tang Wan had no backing and no strength in the early stage, and she had the lowest status among the four female guests.
And because of Leng Yurou's identity as the heroine, Tang Wan has always been too lazy to get into conflict with her and the hero, so he looks particularly... timid.
Tang Wan was almost laughing at her own guess. Could she be bullied just because she was a dumpling? The heroine was a little too arrogant. Did she have to step on others because they were not as famous as her?
Fortunately, Leng Yurou was reborn. She was always trampled under the feet of others in the past, so after her rebirth, she wanted to trample on others. She is truly a believer in social Darwinism, where the strong prey on the weak.
Tang Wan sneered in her heart, but she still couldn't figure out one thing, that is, what was the heroine's motive for targeting her? She didn't have a direct conflict with Leng Yurou, and she didn't pick on the hero every day like in the novel, so why did the heroine start to hate her?
Bai Ruiheng explained this question very clearly on the phone.
"Tang Wan, didn't you realize that you got much more benefits from this show than Leng Yurou? You are unique in your popularity and have the most fans."
"Even because of this variety show, your popularity is almost catching up with Leng Yurou. You have to know that the couple that this show originally wanted to focus on was Shen Yan and Leng Yurou, and no one among the female guests would be more famous than Leng Yurou. But now..."
"You are about to overshadow the two of them. Shen Yan doesn't need to rely on variety shows to increase his popularity, but Leng Yurou does. Even if you don't pose a threat to Leng Yurou now, you will definitely be a powerful snatcher of her resources in the future."
After hearing Bai Ruiheng's explanation, Tang Wan still found it a little unbelievable. After all, in her mind, the heroine dared to love and hate, and always sought revenge only on those against whom she had a grudge.
Hearing Tang Wan's silence, Bai Ruiheng sighed and continued, "There are only so many resources in this circle. If you eat more, she will get less."
"What's more, to some extent, you became famous by stepping on her limelight. It's normal for her to feel unhappy and want to push you down."
"In this circle, you have to realize this as early as possible. Anyone can be your potential opponent."
"It's not wrong that you only want to film, but there are many people who don't like you. Just like this time, you didn't steal Leng Yurou's role at all, but she was secretly plotting against you."
Tang Wan didn't know what to say, so she could only reply hesitantly, "I understand, Brother Bai."
"We have already clarified it in the organization. You and Leng Yurou are still in the same circle. It's not good to be too extreme, but Sheng Heng will go out to save your face."
"Don't worry, you can attend the promotion in two days as usual. This is your first play, and you have a lot to learn in the future."
Bai Ruiheng spoke in a relaxed tone, but Tang Wan could sense the severity of the impending storm.
"Also," Bai Ruiheng hesitated, "We have already discussed with the production team about you giving money to the production team of 'Face to Face with Love' and they will deny it."
"When the time comes, just say you don't know, and our public relations team will handle the rest."
Bai Ruiheng was very accustomed to Tang Wan giving money to the program team in order to get on the show. There were many such things in the circle.
Not to mention Tang Wan, some outdated stars who want to become popular again have to find a group of people to make connections in order to appear in their favorite movies. Generally, the producers turn a blind eye to some insignificant small roles, as long as they don't play the leading role, everything is fine.
No matter what Tang Wan's mentality was at the time, the program team finally left a seat for her for her 100,000 yuan. On the one hand, the program team itself wanted to use her as a foil to set off Leng Yurou. After all, anyone with a little bit of status would not be a clown in the show to set off others.
On the other hand, the program team really couldn't find a suitable candidate at the time, so they decided on Tang Wan.
Bai Ruiheng's arrangements were so professional that Tang Wan couldn't find any place to interrupt for a moment. She could only hold her phone obediently and say yes.
Xie Yan, who was sitting next to Tang Wan, heard their conversation and looked at the coffee table, wondering what he was thinking.
After Tang Wan hung up the phone, Xie Yan brought up the topic casually.
"Why did you pay to get into this show? I heard Director Wang say that you joined the show because of Shen Yan? He said you seemed to like him?"
Tang Wan had originally felt a little relaxed because of Brother Bai's arrangement, but when she heard Xie Yan's words, she immediately felt that the hairs on her body were about to stand up.
It's over. Why did Director Wang tell everything to others? Does he have no control over his mouth? Why did he just expose this matter so openly?
This matter is not really Director Wang's fault. It was the staff of the program crew who did not mention the door when asking about it.
It just so happened that Xie Yan was next to Xu Bei at the time and heard their conversation clearly.
And the staff member’s words were not certain, he just said that maybe he came to this show because he liked Shen Yan.
"How is that possible?" Tang Wan gave an awkward but polite smile, "I was on the show just to increase my exposure. It had absolutely nothing to do with Shen Yan."
Xie Yan must not be allowed to know about this matter. This was done by Tang Wan in the past and has nothing to do with me.
She absolutely won't take the blame.
"Really?" Xie Yan's voice was cold, "Is that really the case?"
"Really, really, realer than real gold." Tang Wan nodded vigorously.
"I only like you now."
"now?"
The smile on Tang Wan's lips was about to break. Even though she had already slammed Xie Yan as a villain a hundred times in her heart, she still spoke timidly.
"I'll like you too in the future."
