Chapter 392: Chapter 393: Kindness Must Have Some Edge

Gu Qichen spoke coldly, “You don’t need to interfere anymore. She must pay for it.”

Xia Yangyang really didn’t want to get involved.

She couldn’t continue to endure Xia Weiwei’s malicious actions.

Xia Weiwei was an adult. She had to pay for her actions.

Yangyang truly didn’t interfere in the matter.

But when she returned to the crew, everyone was discussing it.

Xia Weiwei was arrested as soon as she got off the plane back to the city.

Huang Mao had sold her out.

Gu Qichen had sued her for intentional assault.

Until now, she was still detained at the police station.

The media was making a big fuss about Xia Weiwei’s crime.

Jealous of her sister, hiring a thug to inflict harm, including her previous malicious acts in school, were all exposed by the media.

Xia Weiwei’s name was instantly smeared with infamy.

After this incident, the film academy Xia Weiwei was attending instantly expelled her.

The small advertisements and web dramas that Liu Ruyan had previously set up for Weiwei also disassociated with her.

The situation was still escalating.

People could hardly imagine that a girl not even 20 years old could be so malicious.

Gu Qichen’s lawyer, a nationally renowned figure named He Bin, had her sentenced to three years imprisonment after the first trial.

Yangyang didn’t expect Gu Qichen to be so ruthless.

He made everything public.

Xia Weiwei originally wanted to mix in the entertainment circle.

Now, her entire acting career was utterly ruined.

Not to mention, she was also expelled from the school.

Liu Ruyan had made countless calls.

Yangyang didn’t answer any of them.

But a month after the incident, Yangyang had been staying at the set every day.

Xia Liangdong had not even called once.

Today, all of Yangyang’s scenes were completed.

The crew set up a wrap-up feast for her.

In the evening, Yangyang said goodbye to everyone one by one.

When parting, Shen Manbing gave Xia Yangyang a diamond brooch.

Shen Manbing said, “This was a congratulatory gift from Ah Chen when I first won an award. I’ve been keeping it, but now it’s yours. I have completely let go of Ah Chen, I bless you, but Yangyang, you’re too kind. You were bullied by me in the past, and now you’re being violated and insulted by your malicious sister. You’re returning now, facing all of this, remember my words, do not be soft­hearted. This world is like this, especially the entertainment circle. People must have some edge to their kindness, otherwise, it becomes weakness and you will be trampled on. Of course, I also believe that Ah Chen will definitely protect you well, but in this world, many things eventually rely on oneself.”

Yangyang was deeply moved: “Sister Bingbing, thank you. I’m also very sorry.”

Yangyang always wanted to apologize.

It was because Weiwei had drugged someone on the set before to frame her, but ended up injuring Shen Manbing instead.

It led to Shen Manbing having relations with Shen Shichuan.

From that moment, Yangyang noticed that the relationship between Shen Manbing and Shen Shichuan had utterly changed.

Now, the two of them were almost like secret lovers.

However, sometimes Yangyang could see that both of them were suffering, trapped in the bondage of ethics and societal taboos.

They had the chains of being siblings, never able to openly be like normal lovers.

Shen Manbing just smiled, “You don’t have to blame yourself for this. It’s not your fault. Besides, I should thank her for breaking this layer of gauze. Otherwise, I would never have taken that step in my entire life.”
