Director Du's face was etched with grim determination as he pieced together the events leading to Xia Lihua's near accident. He had no doubt that a bribe was involved and the video taken by Ling Feiyi pointed squarely at Yue Mei.
Within minutes, Yue Mei and her manager were summoned to the backstage lounge.
Yue Mei entered, her demeanor a mix of nervousness and defiance. Her manager followed closely behind.
Both were quite stunned to see Yang Lingyun in the room who radiated a noble aura. Their trance was broken by Director Du's blunt voice.
"Did you pay a technician to tamper with the stage light?"
Director Du's question was very direct and it caught Yue Mei off guard.
"What? I don't know what you're talking about..." She feigned innocence and stepped behind her manager, using him as a shield.
