Yi Tian tried to look super pitiful, and she made sure everyone saw her grievances. In contrast, Ling Tianya seemed rather aggressive and cold.
In order to properly play one of Ling Tianya’s fans, Yi Tian must have flipped through all of her books and learned the important plots and dialogues. She did everything she possibly could, given the time limit.
“I only ever have 2,000 hardcover copies of each of my books. Since I was still abroad when they came out, all the hardcover books are in English and they never made it to China.”
Having said that, Ling Tianya smiled. “I think Miss Yi still underestimated the popularity of my books overseas. There were only 2,000 hardcovers. I wouldn’t say they were sold within seconds, but it was close.” Ling Tianya slowly sipped on some hot water. “I saw you carrying my books around recently. At first, I thought you were really a fan. Then, I accidentally discovered that all those hardcover books you had were in Chinese.”
Yi Tian’s face went stiff,and she started to look around with a guilty conscience. She was afraid that Ling Tianya’s words were heard by others.
Ling Tianya chuckled. “The contract on hardcover Chinese editions has just been signed. It is estimated that it will take at least a month before the books are printed, packaged, and put on sale. You, Miss Yi, already have your hands on them. That is really amazing.”
“Miss Ling, there’s nothing amazing about it. It is called piracy!” Zhang Ke said sarcastically.
Yi Tian’s expression completely froze. The way she looked at Ling Tianya was no longer pitiful like before. Yi Tian couldn’t remain calm regardless of how strong she was inside. Being publicly debunked by the book author as a fake fan like that was a shock.
Li Fei couldn’t even handle such an easy task! She got her pirated books and she was exposed by Ling Tianya herself!
Yi Tian’s mind was racing rapidly, as she tried to salvage her image.
“Miss Yi Tian is a fake fan?” The small bodyguard looked at Yi Tian in disbelief. The admiration and concern she showed toward Ling Tianya didn’t seem fake. It must be that Miss Yi’s was poor and couldn’t afford the genuine books, or that she was cheated.
“Miss Ling, it’s a misunderstanding. The books I brought with me were indeed pirated. That’s because my English is not very good, and I can’t read the English books entirely. I really have your genuine books, and I have them all at home, never opened. I valued each one of your books very much, and it took me a lot of effort to get them in the first place!” Yi Tian’s face looked sincere and honest, and her eyes sparkled as she looked at Ling Tian with great devotion.
Hearing Yi Tian’s explanation, the small bodyguard relaxed his brows. He knew that Miss Yi was not the kind of woman that would lie.
The big bodyguard noticed the change in his brother’s expression and quietly sighed. His prejudice against Miss Ling was so deep that it would become problematic sooner or later.
“You must believe me, I really admire your work. I can even recite the passages. Would you like to hear…?”
“No need.” Ling Tianya coldly interrupted Yi Tian’s enthusiasm.
Suddenly, Yi Tian stood up from the chair, and without any notice, dropped down to her knees in front of Ling Tianya.
The series of actions happened too fast. The people there all stared at Yi Tian in astonishment. What was she doing?
Even Zhang Heng stopped filming and looked over there. Earlier on, he already sensed that Ling Tianya seemed to have a prejudice against Yi Tian. He had no clue what happened to make Yi Tian kneel in front of Ling Tianya.
