*Chapter 59: Stop Pretending

Do you have it?

Bai Ruoruo didn’t believe it.

Many netizens didn’t believe it either.

After all, if Jiang Mi really had evidence, why not file a lawsuit directly instead of using mental distress compensation to coerce and threaten?

But, looking at Jiang Mi’s stunning face, they couldn’t help but hold out some hope…

In the next moment, Jiang Mi’s cold and composed voice rang out.

“The company forced me to drink with investors, secretly drugged my drink at the dinner table, and provided hotel room keys to the investors, helping them attempt to assault me. Is that enough?”

When Jiang Mi made this statement, everyone present and the netizens watching were stunned.

In reality, these kinds of drinking and sleeping arrangements were well-known in the industry and had gradually become an unspoken rule.

Some people were willing to accept these unspoken rules for resources or career advancement, and as long as both parties were willing, no laws were broken.

But there were many who didn’t want to compromise but were still coerced and threatened. Is this unspoken rule still legal?

[It’s not just about “enough” – it should be about criminality!]

[A girl suffering through this must endure immense psychological pain. Those scumbags deserve to die, and Bai Ruoruo deserves to die too for forcing Mimi to publicly reveal her wounds.]

[Jiang Mi has evidence to take the company to court, making the disgusting pimp company serve jail time!]

[Oh my, the entertainment industry is so dark. Even a rich young lady like Mimi faces such injustice. It’s unimaginable how much worse those without any background must suffer.]

[Previously, I only heard about these unspoken rules from gossip accounts. I didn’t expect the reality to be more disgusting. If an artist doesn’t agree, they are still coerced – isn’t this equivalent to assault?!]

[Is this just a scare tactic? There’s probably no real evidence. Otherwise, how could someone as ‘brave’ as Jiang Mi not call the police?]

Bai Ruoruo hadn’t expected Jiang Mi to actually have evidence, and her face turned pale with fear.

She couldn’t believe that Jiang Mi would dare to openly speak about these unspoken rules of the industry. Was she done with her career?!

Although Jiang Mi had a big financial group backing her, Jiang’s company was not involved in the entertainment industry and didn’t have much influence there.

If Jiang Mi dared to openly reveal the rules about drinking and sleeping today, would she dare to reveal more tomorrow? An artist who might ‘explode’ with such revelations—who would dare to use her in the future!

Realizing this, Bai Ruoruo calmed down and even felt a bit gleeful. She glanced around, trying to provoke Jiang Mi into saying more, and take the chance to tarnish her reputation further.

“Mimi, I didn’t expect you to have gone through such embarrassing experiences. I really feel so sorry for you. Boohoo.”

Bai Ruoruo pretended to cry.

In reality, every word subtly implied that Jiang Mi had been tainted by someone.

But suddenly, a cold, terrifying gaze landed on her, bringing back the feeling of imminent death.

Bai Ruoruo trembled in fear, unable to make a sound halfway through her fake crying.

Gu Chuan, arms crossed, leaned against the makeup room doorframe. His face remained handsome and stern, but his eyes were dark and cold, exuding an overwhelming aura of intimidation.

Jiang Mi also sensed the chilling presence from Gu Chuan and felt a faint sweetness in her heart.

Her gaze turned back to Bai Ruoruo, and she suddenly became a bit impatient.

Tearing apart the White Lotus was no fun compared to being in love!

Jiang Mi strode over with long legs, her peach blossom eyes narrowing into a sharp and cold gaze.

“Stop pretending. Your fake crying is just a way to subtly mislead everyone into thinking that I’ve been violated by the investors.”
