Chapter 324: Chapter 324: Come Personally to Pick Up People

He was ruddy and healthy-looking, even healthier than a bull, hardly appearing to have a cold. But since he claimed to be completely unfazed, Rong Yan felt too embarrassed to expose the truth and was half-pushed out by the producer—

No sooner had she left when Fu Ya, not willing to give up, clutched at the director’s arm to continue her complaint, “Director Tang, it really was Rong Yan who deliberately snatched my phone and smashed it. If you don’t believe me, just look at the security cameras; they should have captured it. I didn’t provoke her at all, and she just took my phone. It’s really too bullying!”

Director Tang watched Rong Yan leave before he turned back and indifferently removed her hand, counter-questioning, “Why would she take your phone if nothing was wrong?”

Fu Ya didn’t even think before she looked up and said, “Isn’t it because of the news last night? Everyone saw the news. She must have thought I was playing with my phone, thinking that I was looking at the news about her, and in a fit of rage, snatched my phone.”

Qi Yue heard her blatantly lying and pinning all the blame on Rong Yan and was eager to speak up for Rong Yan.

But a fierce look from Fu Ya was already piercing her way, warning her to shut her mouth.

“Director Tang, Rong Yan has caused such a big scandal, and it’s affecting us all. A lot of the trainees are feeling uncomfortable…”

What she meant was that Rong Yan’s scandal during the competition should warrant some punishment from the show organizers, otherwise everyone else would definitely feel it’s unfair.

“Uncomfortable? What’s there to be uncomfortable about? Rong Yan’s news is her own affair, the reporters aren’t going to look for you. If you stay here and focus on the training camp, what’s there to feel uncomfortable about?” Director Tang asked her coolly.

The question made Fu Ya’s face alternate between green and red, and she opened her mouth to explain, “But her scandal could affect the competition.”

Director Tang, impatient with her scheming behind the scenes, turned back and gave her a warning look, saying, “If you feel affected, you can withdraw from the competition!”

“Director!” Besides Qi Yue and the others in the dorm, there were also people like Xia Xue who had come over after hearing the commotion. Fu Ya, the daughter of the director of a major company, had never been short of lording over the other trainees. When the director rebuked her in front of so many people, she felt both shamed and annoyed, “My father…”

Director Tang was not afraid of her at all and interrupted her before she could finish, “I don’t care who your father is; right now, you are just an AQ trainee. If you want to keep competing, stop causing trouble behind the scenes. If you want to make trouble here, pack your things and go home! We don’t need you!”

If he hadn’t seen that person come to pick her up, perhaps he would have given Fu Ya some face. But after seeing that person come personally, now no one could talk to him about having powerful backup. Here, who could have more clout than Rong Yan!

Fu Ya had been so scolded that her face was red and her ears glowed, her face swelling to the color of liver red, holding back her breath, she wished she could just throw her hands up and leave.

But the reality show had become very popular because of Rong Yan’s controversial presence, and many were focusing on the competition. She was waiting to debut in the center position and become famous; how could she willingly withdraw?

With gritted teeth, Fu Ya forcibly held back and, even though she was reluctant, she now apologized with a suffocatingly blue face, “I’m sorry, Director, I know I was wrong.”

Director Tang snorted, as if to say to her and to the others, “From now on I don’t want to hear anyone discussing last night’s news behind backs, nor bringing rumors from the outside into the training camp. Anyone who does will pack up and leave! Understand?”

In the crowd, both Fu Ya and Xia Xue had similarly ugly expressions, and they both lowered their heads, resentfully responding, “Understood.”
