Chapter 51: Should be Yours
As Jiang Yao did Mo Li’s make-up, she realized how big of a liar Qiao Qing was. Mo Li didn’t have a big temper, if anything, she was extremely pleasant. Mo Li praised her for her skill and was very graceful. She thanked her for her service. Jiang Yao was surprised that the young miss of the Mo Family would be so appreciative of her work. And to think she almost fell for Qiao Qing’s trick and misjudged Miss Mo Li!
Qin Lu and Sister Ya who were in the dressing room looked at Qiao Qing strangely. The girl’s face must be stinging from the face slap. Qiao Qing’s face was white and red. She wanted to stand up and shout at these people,?Weren’t you all talking behind Mo Li’s back as well earlier? How fake can you people be! Have you forgotten how happy you were when you were mocking her? Who gave you the right to point and gossip about me now?!
Itching to see the world burn, Qin Lu said, “Haven’t Mo Li always been your big sister? Why would you suddenly think she has a bad temper now?” Qiao Qing was stumped, anything she said would be wrong.
Mo Li was done with her make-up and she turned to Qiao Qing, “She probably misunderstood me. It’s hardly her fault, as sisters, we communicate too rarely, we should talk more often in the future.” But what to discuss and when to discuss, that was for Mo Li to decide.
Everyone was impressed by how pretty Mo Li was after the make-up was done. Mo Li had a good foundation and Jiang Yao’s skill was really good!
Qin Lu thought to herself,?This Mo Li does look pretty, I’ll give her that. A simple make-up can enhance her natural beauty. She is such a bitch internally but the stylist has made her into this innocent-looking youth.
Liu Fan led Mo Li and another girl to go through the script. The rest of them waited patiently in the dressing room.
Qin Lu caught Qiao Qing’s expression and she chuckled, “What’s wrong, is someone feeling wronged? Please check your identity first. No matter how trashy Mo Li might be, she is the biological daughter of the Mo Family, you think you can ruin her relationship with others with just a few clever words? You must have overestimated yourself.”
“That’s right.” Sister Ya was annoyed that she was rejected by Mo Li. Since she couldn’t take it out on Mo Li, the next best thing was Mo Li’s sister, Qiao Qing. “I’m here today because of Mo Family. Unfortunately Miss Mo Li decided to give the chance to a newcomer, I admire her grace and kindness.”
“Furthermore, unlike someone’s claim, Miss Mo Li has no temper at all. Thankfully Miss Mo Li was not offended. If she decided to swap us out for a new group of stylists…”
Qiao Qing had misspoken today. Normally she was extremely cautious to build her gentle and kind character. She never had conflict with anyone in school. But this time she miscalculated. Thinking back, she wondered what went wrong. In the past, she would act according to her instinct. And her instinct would always help her to achieve the result she wanted but this time, for some reason, her instinct misfired.
Even though she was still the adopted daughter, after years of preparation, she was slowly inching her way into earning the Mo Family’s favor. She was just missing an important opportunity to squeeze into the core of the Mo Family.
However, she also knew that her success hinges on Mo Li’s failure. And the inverse was also true.
Therefore, when she saw Mo Li earlier, that fear of losing everything appeared in her mind. There was a voice telling her!?This is the person who has taken everything that should be yours. Her status, her family, her wealth, everything she has should be yours to begin with!
Her instinct kicked in and she dropped the comment, which was also a reflection of her real thought.
Qiao Qing calmed down and thought about it. With Mo Li’s explosive temper, she should have been riled up by that comment and berated her. Then everything would fall into place, she would be the hapless victim again. To Qiao Qing’s consternation though, things didn’t turn out the way she expected.
Ignoring the snide comments, Qiao Qing picked up her phone and went online. Then Liu Fan returned to call them. She put away her phone and left with the rest.
…
Back in the other classrooms, the students gathered together and discussed heatedly, “How did this Mo Li get selected for the school’s recruitment video? How is her reputation going to help our school? Has the board lost their mind?”
“It’s because her parents are rich and sit on the board.” Another girl said softly, “I heard that ever since Mo Li agreed to the shoot, Director Liu has not stopped smiling.”
“Eh, come and look. There’s another expose on the school forum! Someone said Mo Li is bullying people in the dressing room, causing everyone to be unhappy, thus delaying the shooting’s progress!”
