Everyone was confused. Mi Na’s mother urged Mi Na, “What exactly happened? Tell me now.”
However, Mi Na could not say it no matter what, so she could only escape by crying.
Bai Ting did not expect her to say anything. She directly asked someone to show a video of the banquet. It was recorded by someone who had attended the banquet.
“See for yourselves.” Bai Ting’s tone was very cold.
After the video ended, Mi Na’s mother slumped to the ground. Mi Na’s father rushed forward and slapped her hard. “How could you do such a thing and say those things in front of so many people? Don’t you feel ashamed?”
Bai Ting had no intention of watching this farce. She said, “Since you’ve already said these words, you probably don’t need my help.”
After saying that, she left the Mi family without looking back. She said to her assistant beside her, “Cut off all help to the Mi family and announce this matter to the public. Announce that the Bai family and the Mi family are irreconcilable in the future.”
“But this matter is a little embarrassing. Should we really send it out?” The assistant was a little hesitant.
Bai Ting’s tone was firm. “We must send it. Only then can the Bai family and the Mi family be completely cut off.”
Soon, Bai Ting was glad that she had acted quickly and posted the video and statement first.
In the afternoon, the entire Internet was filled with news about Mi Na’s drug use. Not only were there photos and facts, but there were also party videos.
The netizens were circulating the news. Mi Na was considered a rather famous actress. Many people liked her lively personality. They did not expect her to be such a person.
Mi Na almost fainted when she saw the news, but before she could, her father did. The whole family was in chaos.
She knew that she was finished. Not only would her career be terminated, but she would probably be arrested soon. It was illegal to take drugs in China, not to mention that she had a lot of drugs hidden in her room.
She didn’t care about anything else and quickly returned to her room. Then, she took all the hidden drugs out, wanting to flush them into the sewer to destroy the evidence.
However, just as she opened the door, the police rushed in and saw Mi Na pouring something into the toilet bowl. They handcuffed her and took her away.
At the same time, they found evidence of drug trafficking in her chat history. Drug use and possession were already crimes, and drug trafficking was a felony in China. The highest punishment was the death penalty.
The video of Mi Na being taken away went viral on the Internet. Everyone began to discuss the matter, saying that they did not expect Mi Na to be such a person.
Of course, Jiang An was also watching this news. Zou Bai asked, “Are you happy now?”
“She deserves it.” Jiang An snorted.
Zou Bai knew that she wasn’t angry anymore. After all, she was taken away by the police and handed over to the law for trial.
Jiang An put down her phone and leaned into Zou Bai’s arms. The two of them were enjoying a rare moment of peace. At this moment, Gu Sheng called. He was very excited. “Miss Jiang, ‘Legend of Gan Lan’ has already passed the review. It should be released in a week!”
“That’s good news. Do you need me to cooperate with the promotions now?” Jiang An smiled.
Gu Sheng said, “I’ve already discussed it with your manager. You’re going to go on that variety show. It has enough exposure to drive ‘Legend of Gan Lan’. Then, it’s enough if you can just participate in a few publicity activities afterwards.”
Jiang An naturally agreed. This television drama was her investment.
After hanging up, Zou Bai asked, “What variety show are you participating in?”
“A parent-children type,” Jiang An explained. “The agent said that it’s better to go with the flow than to keep trying to prevent it. Preventing the children from appearing will cause those reporters to follow them as closely as they can. If they go on a variety show, there won’t be any value in chasing after them. The children’s days in the future will be quieter.”
Zou Bai felt that it made sense and asked, “The two children are naughty sometimes. Bring Auntie Sang and Auntie Fang along.”
“We’re recording a live variety show. How can we bring Aunties along? However, Third Brother will be with me. It won’t be very tiring,” Jiang An said with a smile.
Zou Bai suddenly realized something. “So this variety show is about parents bringing their children along, right?”
“That’s right.” Jiang An nodded.
“Then why don’t you let me go?” Zou Bai questioned. “Is Jiang Huai more suitable than me?”
Of course, Jiang An knew that Zou Bai was the child’s father and was more suitable to be on the show than Jiang Huai. However, his relationship with the children could not be exposed at the moment. How could she explain it if he was on the show?
Jiang Huai was the children’s biological uncle after all, while Zou Bai had no other relations to them..
