Chapter 72 – Why couldn’t she gain Lu Ting’s Favor? (3)
Qin Xue couldn’t sleep that night. After seeing D’s official blog, it felt like they were being hostile towards her. Her assistant, Tang Haoran, frowned and scolded them, “THat’s too much. It’s just a dress! They want us to pay 9.8 million for it?! Isn’t this clear-cut case of robbery? Hah, now that the dress is ruined, they can say whatever they want, huh? That’s too much.”
When she thought of how much she embarrassed herself tonight, Qin Xue’s head burst out in pain. And, with Tang Haoran blabbering on at the side, her head was hurting more and more. “I don’t care what tricks you use, but get rid of all those pictures and videos on the net.”
Tang Haoran paused for a while and gulped before looking at her. “Ah Xue, I don’t know if I should tell you this, but…”
“What?”
Tang Haoran said, “As far as I know, Li Xing’s company has already called Lin Yueqi and said they wanted to sign with her, but they were rejected by Lin Yueqi. Not only did she turn him down, she even specially came over to offer herself as your supporting character in that movie as the third supporting female. And, with how she’s been trying to ruin her own image on the net, her moves have been completely unpredictable…I suspect that—”
“Are you suspecting that she’s deliberately taking that role to ruin her own reputation?” Qin Xue massaged her brow bone and looked up at him. “But why would she do such a thing? Does she gain anything from this? Is she trying to completely break down her character and take a different route instead?”
“There is that possibility. But things could backfire if she completely degrades herself,” Tang Haoran said.
Qin Xue thought about Tuantuan, then at Lin Yueqi’s recent rise in positive energy. What her assistant says makes sense.
If she was determined to go this route, then she wouldn’t be affected at all if anyone else tried to ruin her reputation.
Qin Xue finally understood and snorted. “In that case, I can’t let her succeed. Here, why don’t you go talk to the director and tell him to change Lin Yueqi out? Kick her out of the cast. She wants to be the third supporting female, but I don’t want to let her do it.”
Tang Haoran nodded and said, “Then, you should go rest. I’ll go call the director.”
She rested against the sofa for a while. She was completely exhausted, but she couldn’t sleep.
She found her mental state growing worse and worse, and her emotions were getting harder and harder to control. As soon as she thought about the energy in her “Flourishing Beauty” system that was going to deplete, she became even more burnt out. Just thinking about Lin Yueqi’s springtime happiness made her feel like a flame was burning inside of her.
She had the golden finger, “Flourishing Beauty”, so why couldn’t she gain Lu Ting’s favor?
She was convinced that the problem lied in that fat little girl.
As Qin Xue was thinking about this, Tang Haoran who had finished his call with the director rushed back to the living room panting and told her, “Ah Xue, bad news.”
“What? Does D’s want more than 9.8 million? It’s not like I can’t afford it. Moreover, I’m not paying them back that easily either. Help me find a good lawyer. We’re going to deal with this in court.”
Qin Xue said to him after taking some sleeping pills.
Tang Haoran said, “It’s not that, it’s the crew. They suddenly said they want to change the female lead. They’re…swapping you out! They said they want you to be the second supporting female, and they want Lin Yueqi as the leading actress.”
“What did you say?” Qin Xue thought she had misheard and frowned. She was so angry that her voice turned into a low growl, “Say that one more time!”
Tang Haoran explained, “The largest sponsor for the movie is the Qiancheng Group. I heard the investors are trying to push their own actresses in. With the relationship between Lin Yueqi and the investors, I’m sure there’s an 80% chance that Lin Yueqi is the one behind this. Seems like Lin Yueqi isn’t going that route after all. She picked the third supporting female on purpose so you could laugh at her before she swapped you out when you’re feeling most pleased, and crushing your confidence. Just like how you stole her role before. She’s trying to get revenge.”
Qin Xue understood as well. Lin Yueqi pulled all these tricks out of her sleeve all so she could toss her back into the bottom.
What a good play. She really is rock bottom now.
