Gu Chengyu pressed his thin lips tightly, refusing to utter a single word.
"Chen Beini, you were the one who spread the rumors, did I add romantic scenes for myself?" Shi Lan, seeing that Gu Chengyu remained silent, turned her accusation toward the leading actress.
Chen Beini's mind went blank, simply because she had never imagined Shi Lan would really dare to be so confrontational, completely breaking the industry norms, paying no heed to hierarchy.
"No... no." With the scripts laid out before everyone, with facts staring them in the face, what else could they say?
"Then have you apologized?" Shi Lan challenged Chen Beini.
"I..."
"I've been cyber-bullied by half a million critical comments; does that not warrant an 'I'm sorry' from you?"
Chen Beini, the female lead, was completely humiliated by Shi Lan's rebuke.
