Rekindled Hearts: The Tycoon's Reluctant Love-Chapter 51 - : Simply A God-Level Comeback
Chapter 51: Chapter 51: Simply A God-Level Comeback
Ming Yao finished her work for the morning, made an excuse to return to her rental to tidy up, asked Aunt Zhong for a leave of absence, and left Imperial Garden.
Back at her rented apartment, she removed her makeup, changed her clothes, and headed to Starlight Entertainment.
Just as she got out of the taxi, Zhong Ling rushed up to greet her.
“Sister Yao, you’re finally here. Director Jiang has been furious.”
Ming Yao had been trending on social media all along, and netizens had already lambasted her mercilessly.

Zhong Ling was beside herself with worry about Ming Yao’s emotions, fearing that she might do something rash.
Those who understood Ming Yao knew she was only a paper tiger, seemingly strong but hollow, sensitive and fragile inside. When faced with problems, she would hide away like an ostrich burying its head in the sand.
Zhong Ling looked into Ming Yao’s eyes, saw no swelling, and felt somewhat astonished.
After such a major incident, had Sister Yao really not cried in secret?
Zhong Ling was Ming Yao’s loyal assistant; she would rather have Ming Yao throw a fit and burst into tears than keep her emotions bottled up inside.
“Sister Yao, are you alright?”
Ming Yao curved her red lips into a lazy, enchanting smile, “What could possibly be wrong with me?”
Zhong Ling observed Ming Yao’s bewitching and cool demeanor and mentally exclaimed.
You haven’t seen Sister Yao for a while, and she seems like a completely different person.
Her aura seemed to have elevated countless notches.
Zhong Ling had no idea what had happened to her recently, but now was not the time to ask.
“Sister Yao, things are getting more serious. Earlier on, Xiao Yixuan’s fans came to the company with banners to block you. Security called the police, and they only left after that!”
“And the comments online are almost all blasting you!”
“That endorsement deal you worked so hard to secure has also sent a letter of termination.”
“Oh right, an hour ago, Ming Wan finished shooting an advertisement and even accepted an interview. She was crying as she apologized on your behalf, and she received a lot of sympathy from the media and netizens.”
What was the difference between Ming Wan’s actions and profiting from someone else’s tragedy?
Ming Yao was being cyberbullied, and there she was, taking advantage of the situation to promote her image as a good sister.
That was just too disgusting!
Ming Yao scoffed lightly, “However smug she is now, her face will hurt just as much later.”
Zhong Ling’s eyes immediately brightened.
“Sister Yao, do you, do you have a way to resolve this crisis?”
It wasn’t that Zhong Ling didn’t trust Ming Yao, but everyone in the company knew that Director Jiang only doted on Ming Wan, while Ming Yao truly was inferior to Ming Wan in every way.
Ming Yao took out a USB drive from her bag and handed it to Zhong Ling, “Take this to Reporter Zhu from the Entertainment Newspaper.”
Entertainment Newspaper.
Reporter Zhu was a veteran at the Entertainment Newspaper. He was originally going to be promoted to the position of editor-in-chief, but last month someone with connections to the boss parachuted in for the role.
Reporter Li, who had always seen Zhu as a competitor and sought to outdo him in performance, began to fawn over the new editor-in-chief as soon as he arrived.
Zhu, on the other hand, wasn’t good at currying favor with superiors, so his standing in the company gradually declined.
Fortunately, Zhu had good performance records. The night before, he received a tip-off and managed to capture the video of Xiao Yixuan and Director Feng being arrested.
But last night, in the dead of night, Reporter Li turned the tables with a tip-off he received, claiming that Xiao Yixuan and Director Feng’s arrest was a setup orchestrated by the insignificant star, Ming Yao.
The news went viral, becoming the focal point.
Quite a few colleagues began to side with Reporter Li, leaving Zhu at a loss, until he suddenly received a phone call.
He rushed to the downstairs of his building, where Ming Yao’s assistant handed him a USB drive.
“Reporter Zhu, Sister Yao asked me to give this to you.”
Reporter Zhu took the USB drive upstairs, plugged it into his computer, put on his headphones, and his eyes immediately lit up upon hearing its contents.
This freaking plot twist is epic!
