Chapter 261 - What If She Falls for You



Chapter 261: What If She Falls for You

“Wow! That’s intense! Luckily for me, I don’t really want to become a celebrity,” Tan Mo exclaimed happily. She could eat whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted.

Xu Miaotong pouted jealously. She wanted to pinch the young lady’s face but couldn’t do so because she was afraid that she could ruin her makeup. Instead, she gently poked Tan Mo’s leg through her dress.

“Ah!” Tan Mo gasped.

“So, you’re Tan Mo?” Yu Yixian suddenly appeared behind them after hearing Xu Miaotong calling the young lady Tan Mo.

After hearing how unfriendly her tone was, Tan Mo did not react to the actress the way she interacted with Xu Miaotong and replied, “I am. And you are?”

She didn’t address the actress in a friendly manner as she was afraid the actress might hate it and respond with something like, Who do you think you are? We aren’t that close.

Xu Miaotong was glad to see how Tan Mo responded to Yu Yixian, as it was proof that the little girl was still picky when it came to who she liked or disliked.

It was also proof that Tan Mo meant what she said, that she was fond of Xu Miaotong from the moment they met.

Another thing that Xu Miaotong was proud of was the fact that Tan Mo did not recognize Yu Yixian, but had recognized her the moment they’d first met.

“Don’t you know who I am?” Yu Yixian asked while gawking at Tan Mo in shock. “Don’t you watch TV or surf the net?”

Tan Mo blinked as she really could not spare any extra time to waste on these pursuits. “Hm…I don’t really have the time for that.”

“You!” Yu Yixian thought that Tan Mo had done that on purpose just to embarrass her. “Who the heck are you anyway?”

Since Tan Mo was shorter than Yu Yixian, and the former was also wearing a shorter pair of high heels, the latter had to lower her head to glare at the little girl.

“I am…” Judging from Yu Yixian’s expression, Tan Mo could tell that she had no intention of hearing the answer. That was why she slowed her sentence down and stared at the actress with a cute expression.

Um…hurry up and interrupt me! Tan Mo yelled inside of her head.

Just as the little girl had expected, Yu Yixian interrupted her. “Well, who you are isn’t really that important. You just joined the entertainment business, right?”

It was clear that she didn’t know what Tan Mo had done to participate in the event, but seeing how gorgeous Tan Mo was, she guessed that the little girl was an actress who had just started.

Yu Yixian guessed that she had some connections for her to be able to get invited to the awards ceremony and get Liu Jingping to do her makeup.

However, the actress could tell that the person backing Tan Mo up wasn’t all that powerful because if they were, she would’ve heard of her name already, as they would have done all they could to boost Tan Mo’s popularity.

Since acting rashly could result in a huge problem in this business, that was why Yu Yixian carefully read the situation before making any decisions.

She had already gotten the list of the people who had tried to employ Liu Jingping on this day, and all of them were people that were as famous as she was.

Since these were people who were in a friendly rivalry with her and had worked with Liu Jingping before, they were close.

Yu Yixian didn’t have to ask her colleagues to know that they also had tried to find out who had been able to employ Liu Jingping in the end, and they would keep an eye out for the person.

After seeing that Liu Jingping had chosen to work for Tan Mo, they thought that he had made the decision because no matter who he chose, he would’ve offended the other actresses.

If that was the case, then he would rather work for a new actress and let her become the target for these famous actresses instead.

That was the conclusion they came to.

Unfortunately for Tan Mo, Yu Yixian was the type of person who wasn’t afraid to get on someone’s bad side.

She had the confidence that the people behind her would calm any problems that she had stirred up.

Being as famous as she was, fighting among her peers was common, and cases where they brought the fights into the public eye weren’t uncommon either.

These were celebrities who had already established themselves as some of the best, and they weren’t worried about quarreling with another celebrity.

And Yu Yixian was one of these famous celebrities. With how successful her dramas were, she already had a couple of shares of some big companies, resulting in a lot of sponsors begging her to be part of their dramas.

There was nothing for her to be afraid of, especially not Tan Mo, a new celebrity who had no one to back her up.

It was evident that the elegant makeup on Tan Mo’s face had been done by Liu Jingping, and it angered Yu Yixian.

How dare he decide to work for a nobody and not me! Who is she to be prettier than I am?

The main reason Yu Yixian was angry was that she was confident that she would win the Best Actress Award that night, and she would never allow anyone else to look prettier than her.

The moment she noticed Tan Mo wasn’t paying attention, she reached her arm out to try and smudge the makeup on the little girl’s face and scratch her.

However, no matter how sudden Yu Yixian’s action was, her movement was basically slower than a turtle in Tan Mo’s eyes.

Before Yu Yixian realized it, Tan Mo was already hiding behind Zhou Jingan. The man was swift with his hands as well, and he quickly caught Yu Yixian’s reaching arm by the wrist tightly.

“What the heck are you doing?” Yu Yixian scolded in a high-pitched voice.

“That’s my question! Would you care to explain why you are trying to scratch the young lady’s face?” Zhou Jingan roared back.

Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Xu Miaotong looked around, trying to find Director Liu and Tan Jinqi.

Unfortunately, Director Liu was nowhere to be seen.

Xu Miaotong quickly noticed that Yu Yixian wasn’t paying attention to her and left to find her assistant. “Hurry up and help me find Director Liu!”

The assistant quickly ran into the crowd while Xu Miaotong ran the other way.

After a couple of minutes, she finally found Director Liu with Director Hou and Tan Jinqi.

“Director Liu! Director Hou! Director Tan!” Xu Miaotong gasped for air as she jogged toward them. “T…Tan Mo is being bullied! You guys have to hurry up!”

Xu Miaotong knew how important Tan Mo was to Director Liu, so important that the director would be willing to leave his career behind for her. He was the person who would do anything to stop Yu Yixian from hurting Tan Mo and had the authority to do so.

“What?” The moment Director Liu reacted, Tan Jinqi had already run toward where Xu Miaotong had come from. The two directors were stunned for a second and then started chasing after the young man.

“Yu Yixian is the one bullying her!” Xu Miaotong yelled as the distance between her and the men was getting wider. She couldn’t run as fast because she was wearing high heels.

“Let go of me! What do you think you are doing grabbing my hand?” Yu Yixian scolded. “Are you trying to molest me?”

Tan Mo quickly tugged Zhou Jingan’s tuxedo from behind and whispered in a voice that she thought was low but was still loud enough for the other people to hear. “Brother Jingan, hurry up and let her go. What if she fell for you because of this?”

“You’re right!” Zhou Jingan gasped with a disgusted expression as if he was seriously afraid that Yu Yixian would fall in love with him and suddenly let go of his grip.

Yu Yixian stumbled backward and was about to fall when her assistants stopped it.

Even if she didn’t fall, it was still an embarrassing sight.

After she’d stabilized herself, Yu Yixian looked around and couldn’t believe the disgust she was seeing on Zhou Jingan’s face. It was as if she was a virus to him.

“What the h*ll? How dare a greenhorn like you insult me!” Yu Yixian scolded when she spotted Tan Mo poking her head out from behind Zhou Jingan.

It was as if Tan Mo was making fun of her.

The actress quickly turned to her assistants and ordered, “Get her!”
