Top Star: Journey To Become A Global Star 61 Chapter 61. Scandal

Chapter 61. Scandal

Chen Mei's scandal was not just a simple dating scandal. It was a scandal with a reputable and famous actor, Yang Kun.

It was not simple because at that time, Yang Kun was already married and have a wife and kids. He was a man in his 40s while Chen Mei was still in her 30s at that time.

The scandal became way too big because Chen Mei was dating a married man who was not even a divorcee.

Because of that, she was even termed as a lousy woman and a mistress by the media but that was just the start of the scandal.

Many rumours surfaced about Yang Kun and Chen Mei on the internet. There were rumours about how Yang Kun's wife is about to divorce him or how Chen Mei and Yang Kun are going to marry.

But the change happened when suddenly, Chen Mei was caught with drugs in her house. She had not taken any drugs but the drugs were found in her house, that's why she was detained.

After that, h.e.l.l broke out for her, several media articles and tabloids about her kept surfacing. The media have already spiced up her incident and made it look like Chen Mei was a drug accidct.

It only got worse for her from then. Yang Kun who was rumoured to be in a relations.h.i.+p with her came forward and admitted that he knew that she was taking drugs.

He also admitted that he was swayed by her but he also said that he broke all of his ties with her when he found out that Chen Mei was taking drugs.

He even announced that he was not divorcing his wife and they are very happy. Because of his statement, Chen Mei reputation became much more worse than it was.

She retorted that she had never taken any drugs and it was Yang Kun who had framed her but there was no one who will listen to her at that time.

Her career was over after that and despite her pleadings, no one helped her. No one knows what she did after that.

'It was a fishy scandal.'

Ren felt that as he recalled the scandal about Chen Mei. That was the feeling he was getting when he thought of that scandal.

There were many controversies regarding that scandal but the result was that Chen Mei's soaring career was destroyed and Yang Kun was termed as the victim. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Although Ren felt that something was wrong with the scandal, he knew he can't do anything about it.

First, that scandal had happened later in the future. Second, he hasn't even met Chen Mei yet, he don't know anything about her and he doesn't even know the inside story of the scandal.

The most logical choice here would be to let things go their way and not interfere with it. If he really felt like interfering in it, he can do so in the future.

For now, he should only focus on his drama.

"Hey, are you listening to what I am saying?"

As Ren was in daze, Jiang Wan who was sitting in front of him said.

"Yeah, Chief, what happened?"

"You really are not listening to me."

Jiang Wan sighed as he continued.

"Go to Xiao Rin and tell her about the audition. The production wanted to cast the role quickly, so there is not much time to practice."

"Is it fine for me to tell her?"

"Yeah, it is. You are the one who had the guts to directly talk to the CEO about it. You earned it for her and now go."

Jiang Wan said as he tapped the table in frustration and Ren left the room with quick steps.

"Is it really true?"

Xiao Rin was at loss for words for a while then showed off a perplexed expression that Ren was seeing for the first time when she heard the news.

She even asked Ren if it was true several times just because she was in disbelief that she was going to take an audition.

It seems like she was really excited as her ears and face were red as she was even holding herself from jumping in excitement.

Ren was surprised as he was seeing her look like this for the first time. Since the time he had met her for the first time, he had seen many emotions on her face but this was the first time she was this excited.

"Why are you that much surprised? Didn't I told you that I will get it done."

"No, no, it's not that. It's just that I am too excited."

"It's okay, don't worry about it."

Ren said as he smiled and Xiao Rin suddenly bowed her head as she said in a grateful voice.

"Thank you, I will surely work very hard to repay you."

"You don't have to do that. Just pa.s.s the audition."

"I will. I will practice nonstop."

"Are you going to take the audition on IVs?"

Ren said as he smiled and glanced at her. She was practising even when there is no cla.s.ses, he felt that she would die because of exhaustion if she worked more.

"Don't worry about it."

Xiao Rin said as she smiled. It looks like she had become calm from the excitement.

"Either way, it looks like you have worked hard understating the character."

Ren said as he glanced at the screenplay that was in her hands. There were many notes written on it and it was seriously looking messy.

"Ah, I was just memorising the lines and doing what I can but….."

"But?"

"I think I am having some problems in playing the role."

Xiao Rin said as she glanced at Ren with a worried expression and Ren asked in doubt.

"What kind of problems?"

"Actually, when I am playing the part of Yiren, I am not able to think about the other characters expression."

'Oh, that was the problem.'

Ren signed in relief when he heard that. He was thinking of some major problems like she can't adapt to the character or something but it was just a minor problem.

Actors or actress would sometimes have these problems and Yiren was a character who have most of her scenes with other characters, especially her brother.

It can be solved by simply having someone play a counterpart. It was not a hard problem to solve.

"How about I play your counterpart, I am playing the male lead, so it would also be helpful to me."

"Sure, let's do it."

Xiao Rin replied in a second when she heard that. Ren even felt that she was more excited than she was when, he had told her about the audition.

He could even see enthusiasm in her eyes and a bright smile on her face.
