“Ah! You old fella! I’m asking you to introduce her to me for a drama! What were you thinking?! Can’t you see that she’s born to be an actress? If she becomes my drama’s female lead, I guarantee that she’ll be famous!” “That’s true, she’s probably from the studio that F.K’s from, I’ll help you ask later,” Director Wang replied after deliberating as he felt that Gu Xi was indeed charming. Gu Xue’er, who was standing near them, turned green with anger upon hearing their conversation! ‘It’s Gu Xi’s again, it’s her again! Why is she better than me in everything! ‘Dad and I went through a lot of trouble and paid so much money to secure this role, but it might be slipping out of my hands now because of Gu Xi. ‘I’m not willing to accept this, I’m not willing to! ‘I won’t allow that to happen no matter what.’ Gu Xue’er clenched her fists and looked at Gu Xi hatefully. On the other hand, after the directors were done with their catch-up, Director Wang hurried over to wave and sm
‘She’s so young, yet someone called her a chief!’ Director Wang said to himself. “That’s not it.” The employee shook his head. Director Wang figured that he heard it wrong after hearing the reply. ‘I knew it. ‘Judging from her age, she’s at most a university student.’ However, what the employee said next almost caused Director Wang to jump! “She’s our company’s big boss! We’re able to rise so quickly because she took over the company,” the employee mentioned proudly. “Wh-what?” Director Wang was in a daze. * “Hey, did you get it done? Did you?” Seeing as the people around Director Wang left, Director Li took the opportunity to run over and asked excitedly. “Uh…” Director Wang shook his head embarrassedly. “What is it? You didn’t get it done? Did you poach her for yourself instead?” Director Li suddenly widened his eyes angrily. “Hey, hey, hey, you can’t sabotage me like this!” Director Wang rolled his eyes. “What nonsense are you talking about! She said that she’s n
“Gu Xi!” Gu Xue’er was not pretending this time, it was obvious that she wanted to have a showdown with Gu Xi. “What is it this time?” Gu Xi was impatient. “Hmph! I’m telling you, don’t be so proud just because you snatched the Gu Family Group away and helped an outsider confront us. Do you know that you’ll be hit by bad karma for doing that?” Gu Xue’er mentioned angrily. “I don’t know if I’ll be hit by bad karma, but I wonder if someone else will.” Gu Xi scoffed. “Oh right, Elder Sister Xue’er, you’re not doing a good job as the female lead. Your director’s planning to replace you with me, tell me… Should I accept the offer?” She smiled faintly at Gu Xue’er. “You! Don’t be so full of yourself, that’s impossible. We signed a contract, and I’m officially recognized as the female lead, do you think that the director can swap me out just because he wants to?” Gu Xue’er mocked. “Do you want to be the female lead? In your dreams!” Gu Xi played with her nails as she replied cas
‘I heard that you look like Xing Beiyan’s first love the most. Oh right, she used to be a campus beauty as she’s extremely beautiful. Although you’re pretty too, a replacement is just a replacement, so you’ll never become the legal wife. Even if you do, you’ll end up like your mom one day… Hehe…” Gu Xi suddenly stood up to slap Gu Xue’er. As a result, Gu Xue’er’s face was hit to the side as she could not avoid in time. Just as she was about to rage, someone shouted, “Golden Age’s CEO and Best Actress Hua are here!” The hideous look on her face instantly turned into a delicate one, and she fell on the floor while shouting dramatically, “Ah!” She drew everyone’s attention right away. “What’s… Going on!” Director Li, who was welcoming the guests smilingly, was startled. Xing Beiyan and the frail yet lovable lady, who seemed pale, looked over as well. Gu Xi was stunned on the spot too when she heard the voice, and she looked up stiffly at the two people. That lady wore an ele
Gu Xi could not take it anymore when she witnessed the scene. She was in no place to question who that lady was, and could not blame him for treating her as another lady’s replacement, hence she could only leave. She would go far away, and perhaps her heart would not ache so much anymore if she could not see them. Gu Xi dared not stay there any longer as she was afraid of seeing something else that would cause her to break down. “Xixi!” Xing Beiyan saw Gu Xi running away in a flash, and a flustered look was seen on his cold face. It was something that Hua Feifei had never seen before because back when they were still together, he was extremely indifferent toward her, and would only treat her gently once in a while. This time, Hua Feifei actually saw an emotion other than indifference on the man’s face. ‘Isn’t that lady just my replacement?’ She wondered. Her face also darkened because she figured that something must have happened while she was gone. “Yan!” She clung to Xi
Gu Xi and Ye Xinhan stood in the same spot for a long time. One was expressionless while the other looked helpless. In actual fact, Ye Xinhan could simply leave without bothering about Gu Xi anymore, but he was afraid that she would take things too hard again and run out to the road. Ye Xinhan had just saved Gu Xi earlier, and she had not repaid him for saving her, so would he not suffer a loss if she died? As a businessman, Ye Xinhan never did business without benefit. He smirked as an evil idea crossed his mind. However, Gu Xi did not notice it as she lowered her head. * At the shooting venue in the university. The teen campus drama’s first supporting role had just shown up, who used to be well-known by the nation as the best actress. Since she came with the Golden Age Group’s CEO, many people crowded around them, and the cheers for them were louder than the ones for the two leads. Gu Xue’er, who was pleased because she had cast Gu Xi away, finally woke up from the joy
All in all, it would be disadvantageous toward Hua Feifei’s future. That said, she dared not disobey Xing Beiyan. Hence, Hua Feifei and Gu Xue’er acted the scene again. This time, a real slap was given. Perhaps because Xing Beiyan was watching both actresses, they performed stiffly. He questioned unhappily after the slap was done, “Did you not eat?” Everyone else was speechless. ‘Judging from the slap, it was quite painful for someone with tender skin on the face.’ ‘How could he say that the slap wasn’t hard enough? Please, it can’t be measured with a man’s strength, okay?’ Following that, the scene was interrupted by Xing Beiyan five times consecutively. Gu Xue’er’s face was swollen, Hua Feifei’s palm reddened, and the other people were afraid. Even though there were many stoppages, nobody dared to say a thing such that even Director Li, an extremely reputable director, lowered his head without saying a word as though he did not see anything. Therefore, how could
Everyone shivered out of fear. “Continue the shoot, and send me a copy of the video once it’s done!” After giving his order, Xing Beiyan left the venue without looking back. The crowd sighed. ‘He’s really cruel!’ On the other hand, Luo Yang and the others had returned after finishing their shoot. Since they were focusing on the shoot that took place a distance away, they did not notice that Gu Xi had left. Seeing as the female assistant was standing in a daze, Luo Yang walked over and asked strangely, “Eh? Where’s Xixi?” The female assistant was still in awe from seeing the Golden Age Group’s CEO, and she finally regained her senses when someone asked her a question, so she explained everything that happened. In actual fact, the assistant had no idea what Gu Xue’er told Chief Gu, she only knew the latter slapped the former out of extreme anger. Afterward, she was distracted because someone announced that Golden Age’s CEO and the best actress had arrived, and when she tu
