1330 I'm Going to Reason

After thanking them, Lu Man quickly called Yan Zhiqing to tell her not to speak up for her.

Given that fiery temper of Yan Zhiqing, she was not someone who would care about this and that, much less whether she would be targeted if she stood up for someone.

She had never been scared of it.

Yan Zhiqing was prepared to take out her phone to start scolding people online. Her manager, Mou Danqiong, understood her really well. She immediately rushed up to Yan Zhiqing and snatched her phone away.

"Are you going to scold other people online again?" Mou Danqiong managed to ask after running some distance away.

"…" Yan Zhiqing was so stunned that she kept silent for a few seconds before she said, "Look at what you're saying. I'm not going to scold other people, I'm going to reason with them."

"Oh, is that so? You think I don't know how you're like? What reason? Look at that fiery temper of yours, you're obviously going to scold someone." Mou Danqiong would not believe her words. "Let me tell you, you're not allowed to do that! Or else, there will surely be a huge bunch of people who are going to say you're arrogant."

"It won't be the first time they'll say such things about me. Just let them say it, then. What can they do to me?" Yan Zhiqing ran over and was about to snatch her phone back.

"My dear lord, can you please stop for a moment? Now that Lu Man and Young Master Han's relationship is out in the open, everyone also knows that the Yan Family has solid ties with the Han Family. The moment you come out to speak, there will definitely be people who will link your good relationship with Lu Man to your status as a judge at the film festival. Would you have cast a vote for Lu Man out of personal ties for her Best Newcomer Award rather than out of impartial judgment?" Mou Danqiong analyzed it very logically.

"I didn't do it because of personal relationships. My judgment is entirely based on the production and the skills of the actor or actress. If they're good, they're good. If they're bad, they're just bad. I won't choose whoever just because I have a good personal relationship with them," Yan Zhiqing said. "In this aspect, I think I am very impartial and fair. I have a clear conscience."

Mou Danqiong sighed. Yan Zhiqing's character of abhorring evil and being clear on what she hated and loved had not changed a single bit after so many years.

When she saw someone she did not like, she would turn her face away immediately. She did not care about who that person was.

It was also because she had the Yan Family backing her up that, no matter how arrogant she was, no one dared to do anything to her.

Or else, given this temper of Yan Zhiqing's, how would she have been able to survive in the entertainment industry?

In the entertainment industry, there were only Yan Zhiqing and Lu Man who were like that.

One of them would go up to you and scold you.

The other would just play you out.

Yet the backgrounds of these two people had to be so strong that it made everyone choke speechless, unable to do anything to them.

In the whole entertainment industry, Lu Man and Yan Zhiqing were the only two people who were like that.

"Yeah, I know your temper. Those who know you understand it as well. But what about those who don't understand you?" Mou Danqiong sighed. "Don't even talk about those people who are smearing Lu Man's name. They don't care about the truth at all. They can twist the facts however they like. Why would they care whether what you said is true or not?

"If you suddenly go online and talk like that, you might not even be able to help Lu Man. Worse still, those people will seize the chance to slander you for voting for Lu Man based on personal relations and prove that Lu Man really relied on underhanded means. Besides not being able to help Lu Man, you will also be bringing trouble upon yourself," Mou Danqiong explained.

Yan Zhiqing pursed her lips. After a moment, she said, "Even if I don't come out to speak, they will still make an issue of the judges sooner or later and talk about me."

"Yes, there is such a possibility. That's why I am going to contact the public relations department right now to prepare for and preempt such a situation. If it really happens, we can immediately respond. So please, my dear Miss Yan, you still have a huge pile of matters waiting to be settled, so don't worry about Lu Man for now," Mou Danqiong persuaded her earnestly.
