Chapter 150 - Secret Love

The next day, as soon as Jiang Zhi arrived at the set, she realized that there was something wrong with everyone’s eyes.

The discussion had been quite lively when they were gathered together, but as soon as they saw her, they all shut their mouths. As soon as she left, the discussion became lively again.

Jiang Zhi had a hunch that the subject of the discussion was herself, and she inadvertently overheard the content of their discussion.

“That’s her, that’s her. Under the guise of her managerial position, she’s actually having an affair with her own actor!”

“AH? No Way… That shady? Her manager and actress? That’s so shady!”

“I don’t know how long they’ve been together. I never thought that the two of them would have such a relationship! It’s just not right!”

Jiang Zhi frowned as she listened to others talk about her and Lu Mian. She could not help but raise her suspicions.

She and Lu Mian had already kept a low profile, so why were there so many rumors?

At this moment, the director’s voice interrupted her thoughts.

“Jiang Zhi, do you have time now?” Director Zheng stood in front of her and rubbed his hands with a complicated expression.

Jiang Zhi nodded at director Zheng. “Of course I do. Director Zheng, what do you need?”

“This… You’ve heard about what happened outside.” Director Zheng saw Jiang Zhi’s calm expression and suddenly felt that it was a little difficult to deal with. He thought for a moment and said, “I was young too, right… but we all know how complicated this can get. Although I know that you can handle yourself well, we still have to keep a low profile…”

Director Zheng understood Jiang Zhi. He knew that Jiang Zhi was unwilling to make it public, and he also believed that Jiang Zhi was not the kind of person who would ruin things for the sake of a relationship. However, if the film’s reputation was ruined before it was released, then all their hard work would be wasted.

Jiang Zhi nodded and smiled at Director Zheng. “Director Zheng, I will take care of this matter.”

“Okay, okay… you are always so sure of yourself. How can I not believe you?”

The two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while before Jiang Zhi used the excuse to leave.

She frowned and pursed her thin lips,

She and Lu Mian had never acted oddly in front of others. How could there be such a sudden scandal?

It was as if… it had erupted overnight. It was very strange.

As Jiang Zhi was thinking, she bumped into Jiang Xue who had just been discharged from the hospital.

“Jiang Xue, are you feeling better?” Jiang Zhi’s eyes softened. When she saw that Jiang Xue was still looking pretty good, she heaved a sigh of relief. “I’ve asked a nutritionist to prepare a diet for you. Remember to eat on time.”

“Yes, Director Jiang, I will.” Jiang Xue saw that Jiang Zhi’s expression was a little erratic. She thought for a moment and asked, “Director Jiang, did something happen?”

Jiang Zhi looked at Jiang Xue’s concerned expression and nodded with a helpless smile. “Have I been too high-profile recently? Have you noticed that I’ve been acting out of line?”

Jiang Xue shook her head and frowned. “How could that be?”

As soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to have thought of something and gently clasped her palms together. “I remember. When I came back from the hospital yesterday, I saw Lu Xuan something about you and Lu Mian with the crew.”

“Her again?” Jiang Zhi remembered what happened yesterday afternoon and pursed her lips to signal for Jiang Xue to continue.

“She sounded very confident. She said that you and Lu Mian were already together and that you were having an affair…” Jiang Xue recalled yesterday. Lu Xuan had said a lot of things.

“Okay, I got it.”

Jiang Zhi’s face turned cold as she went to Lu Xuan’s lounge.

When Lu Xuan saw Jiang Zhi, she immediately asked the other staff to leave.

“Sister Jiang, what’s wrong?”Lu Xuan asked innocently.

Jiang Zhi looked at Lu Xuan and smiled, but her smile did not reach her eyes. “Did you say that? That I’m with Lu Mian?”

“Ah? Sister Jiang, no, I… I was just curious, so I asked if anyone in the crew knew.” Lu Xuan pretended to be regretful.

As expected of an actress, tears immediately accumulated in her eyes.

Lu Xuan bit her lips with reddened eyes, as if she would cry in the next second. “Sister Jiang, I simply asked them out of curiosity, I really didn’t mean to…

“Sister Jiang, I’m sorry. I was wrong. Since you don’t like it, I’ll explain it to them right now! I’ll clarify it right now!”

As Lu Xuan spoke, she was about to open the door and leave.

Jiang Zhi pressed on the door and sneered, “No need! If you say something, it’s already out there. You can’t take them back!”
