"I asked you to take photos of who Yao Meling is meeting, and instead, you bring me these!" Editor Tao slammed the table in frustration as he received the photos from Wang Yushan.
These were candid shots taken during yesterday's parade.
Wang Yushan was indignant and argued back, "This is the reality that the people should see! Why can't we publish this news?"
"Miss, even the government is afraid to offend foreigners now. Who would dare to write about strikes and protests in the newspapers? Sooner or later, someone will publish it, but we can't be the first. The nail that sticks out gets hammered down, do you understand?" Editor Tao glared at her as he reprimanded her.
Seeing her displeased expression, he softened his tone to comfort her. "Honestly, with your background, it would be better for you to find a suitable match and settle down. Why take such risks?"
"Being a journalist is my dream," Wang Yushan replied stubbornly.
"Yes, yes, but you need to know your limits. If something happens to you, I won’t know how to explain it to your brother-in-law."
Editor Tao forced a smile. "I heard that Yao Meling will be at Bai Le Men tonight. Just get a photo of her. It’s said she has a new benefactor and plans to retire from this life. If you go tonight, you might even catch a glimpse of that man."
At night, the glass lighthouse atop Bai Le Men continued to radiate colorful lights, dazzling and bright, while the neon signs flickered vibrantly. Cars flowed in and out as elegantly dressed gentlemen and ladies, along with fashionable young men and women, entered one after another.
Wang Yushan stood at the entrance, peeking inside and faintly hearing the melodious voice of a singer performing "Ye Lai Xiang" like a yellow oriole emerging from the valley.
She couldn't help but sigh: In these turbulent times with chaos everywhere, this place remained a scene of revelry and indulgence.
Called here by the editor to secretly photograph Yao Meling, Wang Yushan felt a surge of frustration. What was there to capture about a socialite who only knew how to seduce men?
She stood at the door, peering inside. Soon enough, she spotted Yao Meling, affectionately linked arm in arm with a refined-looking man as they walked out.
Wang Yushan was just about to raise her camera when she took a closer look and was instantly filled with rage. She stormed up to the couple and shouted, “Chung Yuyang!”
Chung Yuyang, who had been joking with Yao Meling, turned at the sound of the familiar voice and saw the furious Wang Yushan. His expression changed slightly, but he feigned indifference and asked, “What are you doing here?”
“What are you doing here, and why are you with her?” Wang Yushan pointed at Yao Meling. “Wasn’t it that movie star last month? Why have you switched to her? Are you always this fickle?”
The alluring Yao Meling tilted her almond-shaped eyes and glanced at the camera in Wang Yushan's hand. Leaning against Chung Yuyang with a mocking tone, she said, “Now Chung Yuyang is mine. Oh, aren’t you holding a camera? Come on, take a picture of us. If it makes it to the newspaper, then Chung Yuyang won’t have to marry that annoying fiancée of his.”
Wang Yushan shouted angrily, “Pah! You’re shameless!”
Yao Meling’s expression shifted as she retorted, “How dare you call me shameless? You’re the one who’s shameless!”
As she spoke, she reached out to slap Wang Yushan. Little did she expect that this socialite would turn out to be such a shrew.
Just as Wang Yushan was taken aback, a figure stepped in front of her, forcefully pushing Yao Meling’s hand away. “You’ve got some nerve to bully my woman here,” Xu Ziyao said.
As soon as Xu Ziyao finished speaking, two voices rang out simultaneously: “Your woman?” Wang Yushan and Chung Yuyang exclaimed in unison, exchanging bewildered glances.
Xu Ziyao pulled Wang Yushan into his embrace and said, “Yao Meling, you’ve gone too far today.”
Yao Meling forced a smile that didn’t reach her eyes and replied, “Master Xu, I’m sorry for not recognizing your status! But since when did you take an interest in reporters?”
"I am not his woman! Xu Ziyao, what nonsense are you talking about?" Wang Yushan exclaimed as she broke free from Xu Ziyao's grasp.
Chung Yuyang glanced at the two of them and sneered, "Wang Yushan, you think you're so great? You accuse me of being promiscuous, but you're not any better!"
"Hey, Chang, it's not what you think!" Wang Yushan tried to defend herself, but Chung Yuyang ignored her explanation and pulled Yao Meling towards his car.
