Chapter 444: This press conference would be her last.
The old madam watched Chi Lian going upstairs slowly and looking sad and exhausted like a wounded animal.
"Hurry up and come for something to eat, I am sure that you have not had a bite since morning."
"Yes grandma." she replied without looking back.
The old madam sighed and felt pity for her granddaughter-in-law that was being tossed up and down because of her involvement in the entertainment industry.
"Matriarch," the old madam’s personal maid and assistant approached her and said, "That singer is giving a press conference right now."
"Show me." the old madam said.
The maid Ai Wan showed old madam the press conference which was being shown live online. Du Moxi was sitting in a café somewhere because of the baristas and snacks behind her. On the table in front of Du Moxi was a cup of tea or coffee that she was sipping as elegantly as she could.
"Moxi, how do you feel after the first trial?" a reporter asked.
She put the cup down and smiled, "Confident, my lawyer is doing a wonderful job." she replied.
"Why did you refuse to perform for Phoenix Tv?" another reporter asked.
"They asked me to perform but there was no legal contract binding me to them. Singing is my job, it’s how I make a living. Pearl Tv approached me with a contract and they offered a higher pay. I would have been a fool to turn it down. Anybody in my shoes would have done the same."
The photographers snapped pictures eagerly.
"But you had already agreed to perform for Phoenix television and you even went for rehearsals. You could have informed them when you changed your mind, why didn’t you do that? Don’t you think that your actions were irresponsible? If you could do this once then how can other televisions trust you not to do the same to them?" a different female reporter asked.
Du Moxi faced down and the corners of her mouth curled up.
"This reporter, you must be working for phoenix Tv, your tone is a but accusatory." Moxi said.
"Yes," the reporter replied boldly. It was not news that she Mo Pingfan reported for Phoenix Tv news. Even if they accused her of being biased she did not care, none of them paid her salary.
"I said one question per reporter and you have asked like five of the simultaneously. I am afraid that I have run out of time and I have to run. If you have any more questions please address them to my lawyer." she smiled politely, looking innocent and friendly. "Oh, I do have some good news to share I have been invited to be the face of Venus sweets. As you can see things are looking up for me." she giggled shyly and held her small face in both hands. She blew kisses to the reporters and left.
"Wait, Moxi wait." the reporters called loudly doing their best to go after her but her bodyguards had showed up and they stopped the reporters from getting to her.
Chi Lian watched this press conference and she stopped as soon as the lawyer started talking.
"I think I have been too lenient with her T4, I am tempted to do something really bad."
As for the old madam, she too stopped watching the press conference as soon as Moxi’s lawyer came on. Her eyes were angry and frosty, she got her phone and called Ringo.
"Ringo, that musician that is giving your sister-in-law a hard time, make sure that this press conference is her last."
She had given her order and it would be done as she wished. Rarely did the old madam give out orders but when she did she expected results.
Venus sweets was owned by someone that she knew, one of the women in her high tea society.
"Ai Wan, send word to all the madams in the high tea society. Tell them that all those that involve themselves with her in any way will be going against me."
"Yes matriarch."
"Contact every television that has a sponsorship of Jun corporation and tell them that if we see any positive news on that wretched woman we will pull our sponsorships."
"Yes matriarch."
The old madam sat down in the chair where Chi Lian had been and she called Muyang.
"Old madam, the young master is teaching a class right now." Wenzhe that answered the phone explained.
"Put him on." the old madam replied sternly.
Twenty seconds later Jun Muyang was on the phone with his grandmother. "That singer witch your wife pitied and gave a chance is going around causing trouble for her. What are you waiting for to pull some strings and shut her up? I know that Chi-Chi likes to be a strong woman but things did not go so well in court today and someone threw an egg at her. She has been in a bad mood since she came home, do something about this." The old madam hung up, she had said all there was to say.
Upstairs, Chi Lian was changing into simpler clothes.
"I know something that will make you feel better." T4 said. "Spin the wheel."
Silently, she did as he suggested without much expectation.
"Congratulations you get a weather monitoring device."
"Hooray." she said dryly.
She spun it again.
"Congratulations you get a universal news scanner."
"What the heck is that?" she mumbled.
She spun it again.
"Congratulations you get one dozen full health capsules and instant wound sealing fluid."
She spun it again.
"Congratulations you get a dozen loaves of honey bread."
She was about to spin again when she realized that she actually spun more than she was meant.
"T4, what’s going on?"
"Well, your reward for satisfying your pet is two bonus spins of the wheel per week. If you make your pet happier then it will become three spins. Someday you will be able to use points to buy as many chances to spin the wheel as possible."
"I am leaving for the American empire in two days, it would be great if I got something that might be useful."
"You have one more spin." T4 told her.
Using her last chance she spun again.
"Congratulations, you get transmittable knowledge on how to pilot a space craft."
