And thus began the fall of a supermodel...
But, from the looks of it, Tangning's story did not end there.
In all honesty, Tangning had never realized she was so brave - she had actually married a stranger! But, what was done was done, she would never regret her decision.
Tangning returned to her car. Just as she was about to start the engine and head home, she received a phone call from Han Yufan.
"Tangning...where are you right now?"
"In front of the Civil Affairs Office, about to go home," Tangning replied casually, hiding her emotions.
"Yurou has a very important show...I need you to substitute her immediately. I'll tell the makeup artist to provide you with a mask - no one will be able to tell it is you," Han Yufan ordered with the tone of a superior. "Since Yurou is injured, you will have to suffer a little..."
"Didn't you say Miss Mo got hurt on stage? In that case, the media should already know she is at the hospital..."
"But, I have already asked someone to let it slip that she will still be attending even with her injuries. I told you to go, so go!"
He was so shameless. In the past, Tangning had already done stupid things like this for Mo Yurou.
As it seems, she was being used. However, she wasn't going to continue this way!
Tangning stayed calm and nodded, "OK, let me know the time and address, I'll head over there now."
"Tangning, we are about to get married. Help give Yurou a bit of a boost, her career is currently on the rise."
"I'll give her a boost for sure..." Tangning responded with a hidden meaning.
"I'll hang up then. Let's have dinner later."
Han Yufan had no idea the tables had turned, presumably now, he would be sitting by Mo Yurou's bedside, watching over his lover tenderly...Tangning hung up the phone before giving her manager a call. Her manager immediately responded in anger:
"President Han wants you to step in for that B-Grade model? Is he joking? If you didn't decide to retreat from the spotlight, she would not even survive in the industry."
"Long Jie, I've already agreed..." Tangning replied calmly. "Do you really have to go?" Her manager was about to spew blood in disbelief. Tangning and Mo Yurou were both models signed under Tianyi Entertainment, but because of Tangning's decision to retreat, her manager was dragged down with her and ridiculed.
Tangning knew her manager wanted to stick up for her injustice. Reassuringly she responded, "I won't be that stupid anymore, I will not let them use me!"
After hearing those words from Tangning, her manager's face lit up, "So, are you saying you have a plan?"
"Long Jie, from now on I can only trust in you, can you help me do something?"
"Speak." Her manager was loyal to her. After all, they shared the same objective.
"Mo Yurou is so desperate to convince the media that she is attending the show even with her injuries because she doesn't want it to impact her eligibility for the 'Top Ten Model Awards'. Help me pay a visit to Tian He Hospital."
"I see what you're getting at. Obtain evidence that she was still at the hospital during the show and reveal it to the public!" the manager smiled excitedly.
"No, I have bigger news. She's pregnant! and the child is Han Yufan's. Also, help me prepare a statement stating that Han Yufan has used me multiple times to substitute Mo Yurou during her shows. As for which shows? I will need you to help me find evidence for that." The manager was surprised at first, but quickly understood why Tangning's attitude had changed.
Such a shameless cheating couple! Not only did they cheat, but they also used Tangning - ordering her around like a puppet.
