Later that evening, Ning Ran and members of the Star Entertainment’s crew had a meeting.

This was Ning Ran’s first meeting with them but it was conducted under very awkward circumstances.

“I’m sorry that my personal problems have caused all of you trouble,” Ning Ran apologized while bowing deeply to everyone.

The core members of the crew had gloomy expressions on, especially the head of public relations, Kai Li.

She was one of the senior heads in Star Entertainment where she held the position of head of event planning on top of being the head of public relations. Therefore, she was extremely powerful and influential in the company.

Kai Li didn’t know Ning Ran on a personal level other than the fact the company planned to promote her to be their next star. The only thing she knew about Ning Ran was what she read online, which was mostly negative news.

Therefore, she was unhappy with the fact that Ning Ran was invited by the Deputy CEO to join the meeting.

“Ms. Ding, how long have you signed with the company?” Kai Li shot a glance at Ning Ran while crossing her legs.

“Not very long,” Ning Ran replied meekly.

“How much money have you made for the company?” Kai Li asked again.

“Nothing much so far…” Ning Ran again answered softly.

“She’s someone new who hasn’t done much for the company. And yet created a crisis because of her unresolved personal problems. Why doesn’t she solve them first instead of dragging all of us here for a meeting at this ungodly hour?” Kai Li fumed.

No one dared to answer her due to her status in the company.

As for Ning Ran, she was even more terrified as it was indeed her problem, although it wasn’t her doing.

“Ms. Ding, do you need us to resolve your personal matters for you next time? Why don’t we just move the office into your home? If you have a broken light bulb or a leak in the toilet, we can help fix them for you,” Kai Li mocked.

Despite how rude Kai Li was, Ning Ran chose to endure the humiliation.

“Ms. Ding, we are having a meeting now. If you don’t say anything, what’s the point of us being here?” Kai Li continued to press on.
