Chapter 415: Suicide of a Child Star
The reporters immediately jumped into action. All of them picked up their cameras excitedly. As the cameras flashed, some of the newer stars gathered around Song Xin, they wanted to get featured too.
“I can’t believe Song Xin would do something like this. Why would she target Mo Li?”
“Song Xin is the senior but she is acting so arrogantly!”
“Poor Mo Li. I heard that it was Song Xin who stole Mo Li’s contract from LSS.”
“Song Xin is doing all these because Tang Ze has started to promote Mo Li. Song Xin is mad.”
…
A wave of discussion broke out. Everyone focused their attention on Song Xin. She was at a loss for words.
“Mo Li… You!” Song Xin gritted her teeth as she glared at Mo Li.?This girl did it on purpose. She knew what I was about to do.
However, Song Xin was an internationally renowned actor. She quickly controlled her emotions and turned to the press. “I was too careless. I lost my footing and accidentally bumped into your glass. Sister Mo Li, I did not mean to hurt your feelings.” That was all Song Xin said because she knew if she said more, it would make her look less sincere.
Han Xu, who was the victim, had not said anything. He glanced at Song Xin and then uttered plainly, “Miss Song, please stop being so juvenile. Mo Li is your junior. You should not do this to her.”
Technically, he should not get involved in a woman’s matter. However, since Han Xu had stood up to speak up for her, Mo Li decided to play along. Mo Li blinked innocently at Song Xin.?Looks like I’ve picked up quite a few tricks from Qiao Qing too. This is not that hard to do.
Song Xin was furious looking at Mo Li. She could not figure out what was so good about Mo Li that Tang Ze would hold nothing back to help her. Tang Ze even allowed Mo Li to join the crew for the New Year’s blockbuster, Like a Willow. Song Xin had been eyeing this movie for a long time. Song Xin’s company gave her a live-action comedy for the New Year but Song Xin did not think it would be popular. However, Song Xin believed Tang Ze’s Like a Willow would be a hit because it had the traditional Chinese element that the populace today gravitated to.
Song Xin thought that even if she could not get the role of Liu Rushi, she could still play Kou Baimen. The costume designer for this film was internationally renowned. Kou Baimen was seductive while Liu Rushi was beautiful and innocent.
However, Tang Ze had chosen Mo Li for Liu Rushi and An Wan for Kou Baimen. Song Xin was rejected over a woman who had been shelved for years.
Song Xin smiled as she approached Mo Li. Song Xin whispered, “Stop acting in front of me. I can tell the kind of person you are with one glance.”
Mo Li smiled. Mo Li knew when to stop. She turned to the press and said, “This is my fault for ruining Sister Song Xin’s night. I think I will excuse myself from this event then…”
“I’ll drive you.” Han Xu offered in front of all the reporters.
The reporters looked at each other in shock. They did not expect Mo Li and Han Xu to share such a good relationship. They quickly picked up their cameras to take pictures.
Nie Li’s face darkened. Since when did this little girl have such a good relationship with the illegitimate son of the Han family. Han Xu was not an easy character to deal with, even Nie Li had a hard time reading him. Han Xu only used a month to send the narcissist Han Shang into prison and took over the ownership of Jing Nan Entertainment.
“If you were to use your acting skills in your job, you’d won many awards by now.” Song Xin glared at Mo Li. She did not expect Mo Li to be so cunning. Nie Li must have taught her these things.
…
Just as Mo Li was about to leave, she heard a scream from the venue. Mo Li rushed back and saw a dead body on the ground. A 12 years old child actor had jumped from the building!
Soon, Xiao Rui arrived with his team. The reporters were on a high. First, there was the argument between the Gaos; and then there was the drama between Song Xin and Mo Li; Finally, there was a suicide of a child actor. The night was a feast for them.
Mo Li saw Qin Xuan and Lu Xuan move the body. The little girl’s body was stiff. Rigor had set in. That meant that she was already dead when she was pushed from the building.
The woman, who screamed earlier, looked extremely sad. She had a close relationship with the girl. “She said her life was extremely painful and she wanted to die. I saw her suicide note… But I thought she was only joking.”
