Ellaine's head throbbed when she heard Ran Xueyi's explanation. What was she thinking? Could she have considered her condition and decided to not use any paint to not irritate her symptoms any further? Even though she was pleased by the concerns that Ran Xueyi showed to her despite the years they were separated and after being rejected, Ellaine did not want her to hide her talent which could even shock the world!
"Ran Xueyi..." she murmured in a voice that she could only hear.
Ran Xueyi continued to say, "I created such a hilarious scene. I hope everyone will not judge me because I can't paint."
The smile on her lips were sincere and genuinely beautiful. There was no flaw in it and in an instant, nobody made a fuss or mess with her.
The viewers who initially intended to mock and insult her for wasting everyone's time for painting nothing, could not say anything. Even if they wanted, they could not afford to insult that smile that seemed too bright and overwhelmed the insults that they were about to throw at her.
Mr. Liu also found ways to maneuver the attention to the next guest's painting next to Ran Xueyi.
"It's okay, Ran Xueyi. You're still a good actress even if you don't know how to paint," one model who sat to her right said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"That's right. You don't have to feel bothered with what those haters would say to you. You're still prettier than most and talented in acting!" another woman joined in.
Ran Xueyi felt warmed by their words of comfort. They weren't even friends and just practically strangers who met in an event, yet there they are trying to comfort her like they really cared.
She didn't want to think of their other intentions of trying to do this. Ran Xueyi was too tired to think of them being so petty and shallow of befriending her for benefits. She's so tired guarding up against everyone just because she wanted to be safe.
Maybe she could at least have fun first before worrying about the consequences of her actions?
After everyone finished showing their paintings, the fatigue and surge of excitement finally brought some bit of tiring feeling in their soul. Almost everyone left to go back to their rooms. When Ran Xueyi was about to leave, some of the girls in the group suddenly stopped her and invited her to have a drink with them.
"Don't worry, it's an only girls' drinking party. "We'll stay in Mary's room and have some fun!" the one who said this was Gina Jing, a beautiful young lady with a short bob haircut. She was the bubbly one in the group.
Mary, whom Gina had just mentioned, also nodded with her dark eyes. "My room is a little bit messy, but it should be alright for the five of us to party inside. My manager also gave permission to me for as long as no male joins in with us."
Ran Xueyi had a choice to go with them or not, but since she had to pretend she's tied to a contract to her unknown company, she glanced over at Adelle, who sighed.
Adelle then said, "It should be okay for you to have fun. But you have to ask the Boss first."
"You have to ask your company president for permission first before you can go out?" someone suddenly asked.
Ran Xueyi recognized who it was at a glance. It turned out to be one of the woman who got into a fight at the cafeteria. Her name was Xuan Yi.
"It's nothing like that. But I don't want to worry the whole company after what happened last night..." Ran Xueyi's words made them remember why the outing trip was canceled.
Xuan Yi let out a frustrated sigh, "It's those idiots who can't keep their hands off themselves who are to blame. Thankfully, the CK show was able to cover it up quickly before we got into a bigger mess. Who wants to do an orgy? Disgusting!"
Ran Xueyi and the other girls laughed when they heard her. Xuan Yi's personality was slightly different from what she showed at the cafeteria. She's actually more likable than they thought.
Adelle decided to step in before the girls went into their gossip mode and said, "Alright, I'll send Ran Xueyi to Mary's room later. For now, we shouldn't crowd and talk in an open space."
The girls agreed with her suggestion and scattered.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAdelle was worried and asked, "I heard from Guo Yun that someone took pictures of you. Are everything alright with you? Do you want me to ask some of my friends in the paparazzi guild to look out for any pictures of yours?"
In every country, a guild set up for paparazzies was built. But only a selected paparazzies gained a pass and joined that guild. These paparazzies gained their own identity and did not become nomadic paparazzies who just sprouted out of nowhere. They have their own principles and boundaries when they gather personal information and scandals.
Adelle coincidentally once became a paparazzi herself in the past before she became an official manager. And during her stay at the guild, she made a lot of friends and connections so she has a way to get to Ran Xueyi's scandals before they could be released.
Another reason why Ran Xueyi liked Adelle being by her side.
Ran Xueyi shook her head, "There's no need to. I let them take pictures of me."
"What?" Adelle thought she heard it wrong. "You let them?"
"That's right. Song Yu Han noticed someone was spying on me when I met Brother Xie in his room last night. I had my expectations that someone might want to create a scandal of me cheating on my mystery man, but I didn't expect it to come sooner," Ran Xueyi's finger touched her lips. "Anyway, Song Yu Han and I decided to play along with their game and let them take pictures of us together. If you come across them, don't intercept it and let your friends in that guild benefit from it instead."
Adelle still didn't get to comprehend what's happening. But Ran Xueyi served her with details she forgot to mention to her, the manager! What was she supposed to do if Ran Xueyi does something without telling her beforehand?
Wait, did she just say she went to the director's room? The Big Boss let her enter another man's room? Not only that, the Big Boss actually played along with Ran Xueyi's games? Adelle's head was surging with pain.
