"Plus, I can't step out to counterattack Quan Ye since it would degrade Mo Ting's style. Mo Ting and I are one unit, I can't act like I'm on my own against the jerk."
"So, what can I do? All I can do is trust in him!"
Long Jie rubbed her chin and thought for a moment before suddenly saying in an excited tone, "I heard from Lu Che that internally at Star King thereis a power struggle happening. The more Quan Ye does stupid things, the more the Quan family's standing in the agency will be at risk."
"A power struggle means there will be a movement of shares. Long Jie, go find out how the shares are currently split."
"You're also interested in seizing Star King?" Long Jie asked. "Even though you did quite well this quarter, buying out Star King's shares will be very tiring."
"I just want to understand where they're at. Where has your mind wandered off to?" Tangning looked at Long Jie and shook her head. "Perhaps, someday, Ting will have use for it even though he may not need us to investigate for him."
"Don't underestimate me. In reality, lots of important information started spreading from small channels like myself." After speaking, Long Jie stood up from the sofa. After confirming that Tangning didn't need anyone to keep her company, she swiftly left Hyatt Regency; she needed to put her strengths to good use...

10am. The super IP drama that was adapted from the web novel, 'Evil Child', was holding its press release.
This web novel that had accumulated a huge following online was to be adapted into one of the most anticipated dramas of the year. It was to be directed by a top local director, produced by Hai Rui's subsidiary company and brought together A-lister actors and actresses.
Mo Ting's attendance at this press release obviously received as much attention as the author of the story.
As a few of the actors/actresses came from Hai Rui, they couldn't avoid being questioned about Tangning and Mo Ting. Of course, this all happened for a few hours in the backstage.
Although they were asked questions that were unrelated to the drama or themselves, they still responded calmly, "We trust in President Mo."
"And do you also trust in your junior sister??"
At this moment, Mo Ting exited the press release with a few of the drama's important people. His footsteps were deliberately slower than usual; it seemed he wanted to give the reporters time to surround him as he faced them calmly.
Meanwhile, the few people that were walking with him stood to one side and waited for him as they acted serious.
"President Mo, can you answer the current hot topic question?"
"Which hot topic question?" Mo Ting wasn't pleased with the reporter's cowardice, so he pushed him to continue.
The questioning reporter analyzed Mo Ting's expression and realized he had the desire to answer, so he gathered his courage and asked, "The...the question about the love triangle between yourself, Tangning and the heir of Star King."
"I'm afraid I can't give you an answer regarding this, because it's not something I partake in," Mo Ting said directly into the cameras.
The reporter was stunned for a moment before realizing Mo Ting's response was a form of clarification, so he took the opportunity to continue, "In that case, how is Tangning doing? What was her reaction when she found out about this matter?"
"She is fine. As for her reaction, she did not have much of a reaction. After all, she's not very familiar with Star King's heir."
Apart from the time he protected Tangning at the awards ceremony, this was the first time he talked about Tangning in the open.
The couple were both not people to give explanations. Even when rumors of their relationship were spreading like wildfire, Mo Ting did not mention a single word about Tangning. And even when the two people didn't seem to leave each other's side, at least at events like today's, Mo Ting never mentioned Tangning.
But today, Mo Ting had finally opened his mouth.
He wanted to let them know that Tangning and Quan Ye weren't familiar.
This was a clarification in disguise.
He didn't say much, he simply said they weren't familiar.
But, it was enough to draw a clear line between Tangning and Quan Ye...
