Chapter 928: 676 Entertainment is a Circle (Second Update)

After getting injured and returning to the hotel early, Yin Dailan hadn’t left her room again, having all her meals delivered inside.

The next day when she appeared in front of everyone, she already looked radiant and glowing.

"Dailan, how’s your injury?"

The young idol was very good at socializing, showing concern right away.

"It’s nothing, I can’t let myself delay everyone’s filming."

Yin Dailan was quite dedicated to her work.

"Is Zhong Shuo here?"

Wu Long, who was also a regular guest, came over and quietly asked, "I saw his car."

Seeing the two seniors chatting, the young idol tactfully left.

Wu Long was probably the guest with the highest status in the entire show, a big brother figure with a strong variety sense, more popular than Yin Dailan, and his wife was a major star and leading actress in the industry.

"Mm."

Yin Dailan nodded sweetly, her face showing no signs of the hit after a night of rest and makeup application.

Wu Long glanced around.

The recording hadn’t started yet, the director hadn’t arrived, and everyone was chatting casually.

"Dailan, your sister-in-law called me yesterday, saying someone exposed a lot of dirt on you..."

He said this tactfully.

Sister-in-law, meaning his actress wife.

Yin Dailan’s expression became a bit unnatural in an instant, "It’s all fabricated."

Being in the same industry, Wu Long understood what was going on without needing to point it out. He probed, "Did Zhong Shuo come because of this?"

Yin Dailan wanted to deny it, but then she thought about how shrewd the other party was, not so easy to fool, and so she nodded, "I’ve already explained everything to him."

"That’s good then."

Wu Long seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "I was worried you guys might have had a fight."

Although the two of them seemed like siblings on the show, in the bizarre entertainment industry, there’s hardly such thing as real friendship.

Forget about so-called friends, even among couples, faces could be turned in an instant.

When there’s no trouble, everyone gets along joyously, but once something goes wrong, not kicking someone when they’re down was already considered righteousness.

Yin Dailan knew he had come to sound her out, perhaps also for gossip.

After all, Wu Long was known for his curiosity.

"Don’t worry, Long, we’re doing great."

Yin Dailan smiled as if nothing was amiss.

Wu Long nodded, about to speak, when suddenly he heard, "Director Lu is here."

He turned his head and saw that it was the head director of the crew who had personally approached the scene.

For a large-scale outdoor variety show, the crew could include up to a hundred people, and there were several directors.

The head director wouldn’t always be present.

The guests greeted him warmly, quite amiable.

After all, the head director of a hugely popular show like Returning to the Garden held quite a significant status.

"Director Lu."

Jin Zhuxuan, who always worked hard in the crew, clasped her hands in front of her and bowed slightly.

Her overly polite behavior might also be one reason she was sidelined.

In Goryeo, artists were of low status, and all artists acted this way, but in Shenzhou, such behavior could be perceived as "fake" or "pretentious" by others.

Head Director Lu nodded slightly, then headed straight towards Yin Dailan, his facial expression looking a bit troubled.

"Director Lu, are you overseeing the work yourself today?"

Because he was the main star of the show, Wu Long joked around easily with the other party. He had joined the first season of "Returning to the Garden" and had been with it ever since, having contributed greatly to the show’s success, so he was very familiar with him.

Director Lu’s attitude towards him was also different from that of others. Even if he was not in a good mood, he still managed a slight smile, "I have something to discuss with Dailan."

Wu Long, who was quite adept at reading the room, had two children but still dyed his hair a trendy silver. He immediately raised both hands, "Okay!"

Wu Long walked away.

"Director Lu."

Yin Dailan greeted without a smile, apparently already sensing something.

"Dailan, there’s been a lot of news about you recently. So the station manager sent me to ask you what exactly is going on."

The private morals of a celebrity, it seemed, had nothing to do with the show. But once they became a major public issue, things were different.

As a regular guest of the show, if Yin Dailan collapsed, the show would inevitably be affected; at the very least, its reputation would suffer.

"Director Lu, those things are completely unfounded, purely fabricated."

Yin Dailan denied it decisively.

Director Lu’s gaze remained stern.

He didn’t care if it was false or not; what he cared about was the show "Returning to the Garden."

"Dailan, we approached you for this collaboration with great sincerity, which you are well aware of. To get you a satisfying salary, I even got criticized by the station manager for breaking the rules. Dailan, don’t make things difficult for me."

"Director Lu, don’t worry, I will resolve these issues as soon as possible and will not cause any trouble for the show."

Yin Dailan quickly assured him, her expression very sincere.

Director Lu looked at her face and said nothing.

"Zhong Suo rushed to Xiao Shan yesterday just to discuss these matters with me. He’s already thinking of solutions."

Yin Dailan understood that her own assurances might not be very convincing, so she brought up her boyfriend.

As expected, upon hearing this, Director Lu’s expression relaxed somewhat.

Yin Dailan might be able to command an eight-figure fee but was still just an artist without much influence.

But her boyfriend, Huang Zhongshuo, was different.

"Zhong Shuo is here?"

Yin Dailan nodded.

"Alright, since you’ve already discussed it, then there’s no problem. It has been a tough journey for the show, and I hope you understand that."

Director Lu’s tone quickly softened.

Yin Dailan smiled and teased, "Director Lu, I want the show to keep booming more than anyone, after all, there are few as generous as Director Lu in the country."

Director Lu laughed along.

"That’s right, it’s good for everyone if the show continues to run smoothly."

"I’m going to get ready then."

Director Lu nodded and watched as Yin Dailan effortlessly walked away, feeling somewhat reflective.

Having a good man really keeps the mind at ease; faced with such an incident, she acted as if nothing had happened.

He also had great admiration for Huang Zhongshuo’s magnanimity.

Although he was also part of the industry, he found it hard to understand the mentality of some male and female celebrities.

"Sister Dailan."

Jin Zhuxuan rushed over to greet Yin Dailan with a bow, as if the previous incident of her falling into the water was truly an accident she had inadvertently caused.

In Goryeo, the hierarchy was incredibly strict, even one day seniority in debut meant reverence was due, with no room for disrespect.

"Zhuxuan, you’re still young. You shouldn’t focus your energy on researching these things. Just concentrate on the show, it’s better than anything else."

Yin Dailan seemingly took it as a deliberate flattering gesture from the other party and, after kindly pointing that out, walked past Jin Zhuxuan with her head held high and chest out.
