The next morning, Tang Lin was getting ready to go see the filming of the new advertisement for her jewelry shop, Lin's Grace. The concept of the advertisement was Midnight Stars. The diamond necklaces reflected the light and it was like staring at a night sky full of diamond-like stars. The diamonds on the rings were big and shiny. They were very high-quality and suitable choices for men who want to propose.
The two presenters that were going to be in the advertisement for their jewelry brand were celebrities that were very famous currently. Lin had just signed a contract with the two of them and this was the first advertisement they would do for Lin's Grace. They had dating rumors together because they would hang out after work in public. They recently acted together in a TV drama, so many people shipped them together. This would help Lin's shop gain more fame and popularity.
"Hello, I'm Tang Lin, the owner of Lin's Grace. I'm sorry that I was unable to be there when you guys signed the contract with my manager. I was busy with some matters yesterday. However, I am very glad that you guys agreed to our offer. I can guarantee that this will boost your popularity. Shall we begin with the filming? My scriptwriter will explain to you guys about the concept and how you are supposed to act. I will just be watching over and making sure that there won't be any problems. If you guys need anything, I'll be sitting here."
The two presenters had a good impression of Lin because usually, the owners of brands wouldn't care about their presenters and they would only care about the sales of their products. They just wanted the presenters to do their jobs and to not cause any problems. However, Lin told them that they should ask her if they needed anything and she assured them that their fame would boost if they presented her brand.
The actor and actress were supposed to act as a couple and lay next to each other under the midnight sky and point at the stars. They would go there at night to escape the real world and to be in a fantasy where there is only you and your loved one. Every midnight, they would give each other a present. They would give things like diamond necklaces and vintage watches. Finally, on the fifth night, they both bought rings for each other because they both wanted to propose. They put the rings on each other and laid next to each other. They admired the engagement rings as the star lights reflected off of the diamond rings. Then, the advertisement would end.
There was a green background in the big studio. The couple had to lay down on fake grass and pretend to look at stars, when all they were doing was pointing at a green wall.
Once they finished filming, the actors and Lin went to watch the advertisement. The special effects were very realistic and they were satisfied with it. The actors changed into their original clothes and the crew were putting the equipment away. It was already night time.
Tang Lin's phone started to ring. A caller ID with the name of "Stubborn Bastard" popped up on the screen. She picked it up.
"Hello? Why are you calling me? Aren't you at work?" Lin asked.
"I finished my work early. Are you at home?" Shen asked.
"No. I'm at a filming studio. We were filming an advertisement for my jewelry brand. I'm about to go home right now though," she said.
"Hold on. I'm nearby, so I'll pick you up. Stay there," he demanded.
"Okay. Hurry up, I want to go home."
"Okay. I'll be there soon." He hung up and went to a floral shop. He bought the biggest bouquet in the store.
Meanwhile, at the studio, a familiar woman came in and started to yell at everyone.
"Where is Tang Lin?! I'm going to kill her!!!" Wu Ying yelled.
Lin turned her head towards the woman. She had just finished talking to Shen ten minutes ago when she heard a person making a ruckus.
The staff remained silent as the woman demanded for Lin's location.
"I'm right here. Stop pestering my staff or I'll ask the security to escort you outside," Tang Lin said coldly. She did not care if people bothered and tried to bully her, but when they tried to bully her people, she would not tolerate it.
"Ha! There you are in your comfy chair, while my family is at the edge of bankruptcy! Are you satisfied now?! My family hates me now because of you! It's all your fault! All I did was mistake a real necklace for a fake necklace, but you have to go to an extent to make my family bankrupt?! Look at your boss, everyone! Behind her innocent face is a cruel woman who uses her fiancée's power to bully others! Oh, and on top of that, she sued me for a misunderstanding!! This woman should be slapped across the face, so she could acknowledge her wrongdoings!"
Wu Ying's hand raised up and she was about to slam it across Lin's face.
Tang Lin was about to block her face from the hit, but she felt someone come in front of her and she heard a loud slap sound.
A tall man in a business suit stood in front of her and took the hit.
When Wu Ying realized who she hit, her eyes widened and she wanted to hit herself over and over again for making her family be in more trouble.
The man turned around and looked at Lin, "Honey, are you alright? She didn't hurt you right?"
'Honey'? Everyone was shocked. They never knew that Ms. Tang had a boyfriend! Also, her boyfriend was Lu Shen, the CEO of the well-known company, Lu Group! They knew that Wu Ying and her whole family was now screwed for messing with the Tang and Lu families. If it was just one family, her family's company would definitely collapse, but Wu Ying had offended two! The Wu family would probably have to live on the streets now!
"I'm alright. She didn't hit me. But she hit you! Does it hurt?" Lin said as she raised her hand to touch the red mark on her fiancée's face.
When she saw the mark that the evil witch made on her fiancée's face, she wanted to beat up Wu Ying to a pulp.
"How dare you slap my fiancée's face?!! Do you have a death wish??!!"
She got up from her seat and slapped the woman. Her slap was so powerful that Wu Ying fell to the floor. A big red hand mark was printed on her face. Wu Ying already knew that she was screwed, so she decided to bring Lin down with her.
The fake woman started to cry and act pitiful.
"Tang Lin, why do you keep targeting me? What did I do to you? Even if I did something wrong, you shouldn't beat me up like this."
Some of the people in the studio were about to change to Wu Ying's side when they heard what she said. However, most of them didn't believe this woman's lies.
"Stop being fake, Wu Ying! Why do you keep trying to force out tears?! You look like a big hippo crying and sitting on the floor like a little kid! I don't give a crap that your family is going bankrupt! That's what you get for offending the wrong people! Stop acting like the world revolves around you! Your conceitedness is what causes your downfall!" Lin couldn't stand this fake woman blabbering fake lies from her big mouth around the people she cared about.
