Chapter 5: Chapter 5 Even More Interesting
And those who weren't satisfied with just cursing here were led by the paid trolls to immediately go and spew venom under Luo Ning's Weibo.
In addition to these, there were plenty of curses that sounded very nasty.
For example, "I heard Luo Ning has several sugar daddies backing her up, such a rotten woman shouldn't keep defiling our top-tier fresh meat."
"Just look at Luo Ning's demeanor, clearly a restless vixen. If you want to seduce someone, go find your sugar daddies, don't harm our Star baby."
"Luo Ning, go die..."
Some of Luo Ning's fans rebutted by saying there was absolutely no evidence, telling them not to dump all the filth on her, but these comments were quickly drowned out by Ji Xinghang's fans' curses.
Having been blacklisted by the entire internet, all her resources canceled, truly boycotted by the entire network, and having been kicked out of the entertainment circle, what were a little blackening and bashing to her? Luo Ning didn't care at all.
She was no more surprised by this news; it was all within her expectations.
She laughed and patted Xi Shu on the shoulder, "Don't be angry. Bo Xiangxiang originally set a trap for me, and since I didn't fall for it before, she definitely wouldn't sit still and let things be."
"So what do we do now? If we go out and clarify our stand, and Yan Qiuping and Ji Xinghang don't respond, we will be ridiculed even more," Xi Shu was at a loss for what to do.
Those two were definitely on Bo Xiangxiang's side and would definitely not stand out to clarify; so frustrating.
This kind of thing was very hard to explain clearly unless concrete proof was presented — otherwise, those black trolls and paid commenters would never let Ningning off.
Luo Ning said calmly and confidently, "I have a way to deal with it. For now, there's no need to worry. Let them continue to lead the rhythm and blacken my name; it actually increases my popularity."
"The bigger the uproar, the more interesting it will be when the tables turn, and I will be able to completely tear apart the label of using Ji Xinghang for popularity and bundling consumption with him."
Seeing her relaxed and calm demeanor, Xi Shu felt reassured, "Is there anything you need me to do?"
"I plan to change agents. If Yan Qiuping looks for me in the next few days, keep him on hold on the pretext of me being in a bad mood," Luo Ning didn't want Yan Qiuping to know about this and interfere.
Xi Shu nodded, "No problem."
At her darkest times, it was Luo Ning who gave her a helping hand, so she would always stand by her and walk with her on this journey.
The next day, Luo Ning returned to the company on her own.
She didn't go to her own workspace, but directly to the president's office.
The current head of Star Emperor Entertainment was the Fu Family's eldest son, Fu Ci; only he could help her change her agent quickly and without hassle.
When she arrived at the door, Fu Ci's secretary came out.
"Miss Luo, what brings you here?"
Luo Ning didn't beat around the bush, "I'd like to see President Fu."
The secretary asked, "Do you have an appointment?"
Luo Ning shook her head, "No."
"I'm sorry then, President Fu's schedule is fully booked today," the secretary declined politely.
He thought to himself, is this another actress trying to find a shortcut up the ladder? Their President Fu was not the kind of playboy who engaged in under-the-table dealings with his artists.
"Please pass this note to President Fu; I believe he will want to see me." Luo Ning took out a pre-written note from her bag and handed it over.
"The contents of this note are of significant consequence to President Fu, and it would be a substantial loss to him if delayed," she added with a slight smile as she saw the secretary hesitating to accept it.
Secretary Wei initially wanted to refuse but, after hearing the latter part, thought better of it and took the note, "I'll go in and see what President Fu thinks."
This woman better not be lying to him, or she would be done for.
Secretary Wei knocked and entered, and Fu Ci looked up, "What is it?"
"President Fu, an actress from our company named Luo Ning has given me a note to pass on to you, saying that it's significantly related to you, and I thought it best to bring it in case it's important," Secretary Wei relayed.
Fu Ci's brows furrowed, "What could a female star possibly know about my affairs?"
"Then I'll go out and reject her," said Secretary Wei.
Just as he was about to turn away, Fu Ci thought for a moment and said, "Never mind, bring the note over to me and let's see what kind of game she's playing."
As the CEO of an entertainment company, there were no shortage of women who constantly sought to catch his attention or even seduce him, but receiving a note was a first.
Secretary Wei handed over the note, and after Fu Ci opened it and read through, his eyes narrowed.
"Let her in," he said, tearing the note into pieces and tossing them into the trash bin.
Secretary Wei was surprised for a moment, "Alright!"
Soon, he brought Luo Ning into the office.
Looking at Luo Ning, who was without makeup yet still stunningly beautiful, Fu Ci revealed a faint smile, "Miss Luo, please take a seat. What would you like to drink?"
"Tea will be good!" Luo Ning sat down with an easy grace.
Fu Ci nodded at Secretary Wei, who immediately left to make the tea.
"Miss Luo, how do you know about my sister's situation?" Fu Ci asked directly.
The note he had just received read, "I can help your sister return to normal."
The matter of his sister was such that, let alone outsiders, even very few people within their circle were aware of it.
Luo Ning looked back at him and said, "I saw it on your face."
"The tail of your eyebrow spreads out, and there's a slight break in the middle, indicating a problem with the health of your siblings, and I can also tell from your face that you only have one sister."
Fu Ci raised his eyebrows, "Miss Luo, you can read faces?"
Luo Ning nodded, "Yes, I'm quite proficient in this area."
"And how do you plan to help my sister recover? Surely you're not claiming to be a medical doctor?" Fu Ci clearly did not believe her words, thinking this was just a ploy to attract his attention.
Luo Ning could easily grasp what he was implying. She took a folded, triangular talisman out of her bag and passed it to him.
"Your sister's condition isn't a normal sickness. This is a talisman I've drawn. You can take it back and let her try it to see if it makes any difference."
In her past life, she had unintentionally encountered Fu Ci's sister and noticed an evil spirit lingering on her, which caused her ill health and was often accompanied by various accidents.
Originally intending to help, at that time her ability to draw talismans wasn't as advanced as it is now, and by the time she had finished the talisman, the sister had unfortunately passed away in an accident.
Fu Ci took the talisman offered by Luo Ning with a frown, "You mean to say that by wearing this talisman, my sister will be cured?"
After his sister got sick, he had consulted the best hospitals in the world and found no major issues. Some even suggested that she might be cursed, so they had also invited experts in that field to visit, but in the end, nothing changed.
Just a talisman would cure his sister? What a joke.
Luo Ning replied, "It will not completely cure her, but it will improve her condition."
"Given that it's already the worst-case scenario, why not give it a shot as a last resort?" She could tell that Fu Ci did not believe her.
Initially prepared to throw away the talisman after Luo Ning left, Fu Ci paused, then seemingly moved by a whim, slipped the talisman into his pocket.
"Fine, I'll take it back and let her try it," he then added meaningfully, "I hope this isn't simply a gimmick you've employed to gain my attention. Otherwise, you should know the consequences of offending me."
With just a word, he could banish Luo Ning from the company.
Luo Ning nodded with confidence, "Of course I'm aware, which is why this talisman will definitely work."
"What do you want in return? Don't tell me you're just doing a good deed out of pure intentions." Fu Ci was somewhat curious about Luo Ning's motives.
