After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage - Chapter 743
Chapter 743: Chapter 743: A bit… too calm
“If I stand up for him, wouldn’t that just prove the rumors that he’s been kept?” Yin Zhen said, “Who’s career has been all smooth sailing? What’s this little setback in comparison?”
Lin Gantang had to agree, “You make a lot of sense, but if we really do that, wouldn’t Lin Fan overthink it?”
“A real man can shoulder any burden; it’s not like he’s a little girl who needs coddling and comforting when she falls.” Yin Zhen declared.
At this moment, Wen Yanqing spoke up leisurely, “If a man and woman are unmarried, and you admit to a romantic relationship, how is spending money on your boyfriend’s investment considered keeping him?”
He tightened his grip on Lin Gantang, feeling sentimental, “Tangtang, has President Yin always been like this? A bit… excessively calm.”
Yin Zhen immediately glanced at Wen Yanqing, then looked back at Lin Gantang, “Why do I feel like your husband is implying something?”
“Is he?” Lin Gantang was puzzled, “I think what he said makes a lot of sense.”
Yin Zhen was at a loss for words.
She put on her sunglasses, “Work and emotions are two separate matters; I won’t let them affect my judgment. Emotions can change, but what you can truly hold in your hand, that’s what’s worth keeping.”
Wen Yanqing pulled Lin Gantang a little further away from her, not wanting his wife to pick up such thinking.
When it was Lin Fan’s turn to film, Yin Zhen watched calmly from the sidelines, only sending her assistant to the makeup room after the shoot to prepare for the next scene.
Lin Gantang, remembering Yin Zhen’s sapling project, paid attention to newcomers and extras around her during the shooting breaks, alongside Yin Zhen.
There were quite a few in the production team with ambitious dreams, and President Yin’s presence on set was a golden opportunity, so while Lin Gantang was evaluating people, some also set their sights on them.
However, this couple in matching outfits, constantly holding hands, clearly were not the right targets, so most shifted their attention to Yin Zhen.
After rejecting the third person that came up to talk, Yin Zhen, seeing the schadenfreude on Lin Gantang’s face next to her, grew even more annoyed, “Found anyone? If not, let’s head off. We can grab some food together later.”
“Not yet, but the few young ladies over there seem alright, quite distinctive looking.”
Yin Zhen looked in the direction she was pointing and shook her head, “I’m looking for someone with a celestial aura, to try out for the lead role in the new movie.”
“New movie?”
“Yes, we’ve already started auditioning actors, but the female lead hasn’t been finally decided.” Yin Zhen said, “At this point, Ling Luqing might be a better fit for the role.”
“Who?” Lin Gantang was afraid she had misheard.
“Ling Luqing, her image fits the character quite well, and she’s quite popular. If we don’t find anyone more suitable, we’ll finalize her.”
Lin Gantang immediately advised against it, “Don’t, don’t use her at all costs.”
Yin Zhen questioned, “Why can’t I use her?”
Lin Gantang looked around cautiously, then whispered into her ear, “Because she’s a tainted artist, sister. Once it blows up and she’s banned and taken down, your movie will be done for, all for nothing.”
Yin Zhen was shocked.
“How do you know?”
“To keep from others’ knowledge what you do, don’t do it at all. Do you think I invest blindly in all these shows and movies? Of course, I do my homework beforehand.” Lin Gantang spread her hands, “And with a little digging, well, now I know.”
Yin Zhen: How come my plan to have people investigate didn’t uncover this?
She always felt Lin Gantang wasn’t telling the whole truth, as if she was trying to sway her.
Seeing her deep in thought, Lin Gantang said, “Don’t you trust me? You really have to listen to me this time, really.”
“It’s not that I don’t believe you, it just seems a bit unbelievable.”
After all, Ling Luqing had managed her public persona very well over the years..
