It was an ancient palace drama. Tang Yue stood before Wan Qingsi in a purple palace gown. The smile on her face froze when she saw Mei Jing.
"Ah! We were all wondering who replaced Tian Yiyi as the second female lead. So it's you, Mei Jing! " Everyone turned to look at Tang Yue. Tian Yiyi was glaring at Tang Yue angrily.
Asha raised her eyebrows. So no one knew about the replacement. Why? She glanced at Wan Qingsi. For a moment, she thought she saw a look of adoration in his eyes.
Tang Yue rubbed her eyes. She must have seen a ghost. When she looked again, she found that he was still as cold as ever.
"You still want to seduce the boss?" Tian Yiyi rushed over. "Don't think that I don't know what kind of tricks you used to sleep with men …"
"Shut up!" Wan Qingsi shouted coldly.
Everyone except Ah Sha shuddered. Wan Qingsi's entire being was exuding an aura of hostility. Beside him, Tang Yue clutched at her chest and stared at the man beside her in disbelief. As far as she could remember, Wan Qingsi would only get so worked up when something happened to that girl.
"The company has the final say on whether or not to replace you. There are so many reporters outside. Watch your mouth." Wan Qingsi looked at Tian Yiyi coldly. "You know better than anyone how you got your role. If you don't want it, then get out."
After that, Wan Qingsi left the set without even looking at Mei Jing. Tian Yiyi was led away by her assistant in a daze. Tang Yue breathed a sigh of relief. So it was all for the show. No wonder he was so angry.
After the opening ceremony, they began shooting the first scene. Mei Jing sat beside Tang Yue and watched the first meeting between Tang Yue and the emperor. The actor playing the emperor was a big shot. He was the award-winning actor, Chu Yi.
Asha's thoughts drifted back to two years ago when she was still studying at Caesar Academy.
Back then, the entire academy knew that the god-like president of the student council was actually an outsider who lived in the president's house. The girls were madly infatuated with him, while the boys mostly scoffed at him.
Tang Yue, on the other hand, had the opportunity to meet Xunxun because she was the vice president. Her family owned an advertising company, a very ordinary small company, but she had always been very popular in the academy. If she hadn't accidentally seen the video of her in bed with three men, Asha would have really thought that she was as refined as she appeared to be.
Many of the rich second generations in the academy were interested in her. As for Asha, because she was the daughter of the chairman, she was rarely harassed. Occasionally, there would be a few self-righteous ones, but they would all disappear the next day.
Over time, everyone in Caesar came to know that Asha was untouchable, except for the man who was by her side every day, Wan Qingsi.
"Brother Xunxun, why did that minister's son who wanted to treat me to dinner yesterday drop out of school?"
"Someone from his family died, so he went back to attend the funeral."
Xunxun would always give her the same answer every time someone disappeared. Later on, when she grew up and began to understand what was going on, she found it funny. Her Brother Xunxun was as domineering as ever!
Once, Tang Yue had used her usual tricks to set her up. Xunxun had kicked Tang Yue into the lake in front of everyone. After that, Tang Yue had been fired. But a few days later, Tang Yue had returned for some unknown reason. At that time, Xunxun had hugged her and said.
"The price is too small. It's not engraved in my heart."
At the time, she didn't understand what he meant, but …
Asha couldn't help but laugh. Now she understood.
"Miss Mei!" A voice interrupted her. Asha looked up and saw a young girl standing beside her, looking at her with a surprised expression.
"You are?"
"I'm Xiao Hua!" The young girl's eyes lit up when she heard her. "I'm the assistant assigned to you by the company. From now on, I'll be the one who will protect … take care of you!"
Asha stared at her for a long time. "Have I seen you somewhere before?" Why did she look so familiar?
"Impossible. I … I just joined Stars Entertainment." She touched her face. "I have a common face. Haha, haha!"
"Then I'll be in your care in the future," Asha said with a smile. Xiao Hua happily handed her a cup of iced coffee. "Heat it up. Here!"
Asha took the cup and nodded at Xiao Hua. Then, she looked at Tang Yue, who had walked to the side to rest. She lowered her head and smiled.
Half a month later, Asha acted with the male lead for the first time. In the movie, Tang Yue was pregnant. Asha, who played her maid, had to serve the emperor in her place. She had to hide in bed shyly and say a few flirtatious words. Then, the emperor would press on top of her, and … and then the lights would be turned off.
"Not bad!" Lin Dong shouted cut. "Next is the bed scene. We'll start shooting in five minutes." He watched the replay with satisfaction. He was very satisfied with this newcomer who played the second female lead. Mei Jing was the most talented actress he had ever seen. Lin Dong could guarantee with his head that she would become a star!
Also, it seemed that the boss of Stars Entertainment was interested in her.
Since the start of the shoot, Wan Qingsi had often come to the set. Everyone thought that he was there to see Tang Yue, which led to the crew fawning over her. But who was Lin Dong? How could he not know that he would only show up when Mei Jing was filming …
Not only Lin Dong, but Tang Yue, as the person involved, knew better. Of course, she knew that Wan Qingsi was not there for her. She knew better than anyone how she got into the cast. She also knew that Wan Qingsi had no interest in her at all. But it didn't matter, as long as others thought that they had something going on!
Therefore, when she saw Wan Qingsi appear, she once again greeted him with a sweet smile, as if she had seen her sweetheart.
Wan Qingsi stood aside expressionlessly. He ignored her, but he didn't ask her to leave either. That was already a huge honor for him. Just as everyone was feeling envious, they heard Wan Qingsi's voice. "We're not shooting today."
Everyone stared blankly at the big boss, including Asha, who was waiting on the bed with her hand still in midair.
The next day, when the shoot began, everyone was shocked to find that the scene from yesterday had been changed. It was changed to Tian Yiyi playing a harem who was caught by Tang Yue and went to serve the emperor.
What was going on? Everyone looked at the director. Lin Dong smiled bitterly and announced the start of the shoot. Now he was completely sure that Wan Qingsi had taken a liking to Mei Jing, and seemed to care about her very much. Otherwise, he would not have refused to let any man touch her.
Tang Yue glanced at Mei Jing's face, then got into the nanny van with a sullen face. Asha, on the other hand, looked up at the sky.
The weather was getting colder. Today was Asha's last scene. She disobeyed Tang Yue's orders and was slapped. Originally, the slap would be staged, but who knew that the whole studio heard it.
"Slap!" A crisp slap landed on Asha's face.
Then came Tang Yue's scream. "Mei Jing! I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I … I couldn't control myself. "
Lin Dong rubbed his forehead and looked at Tang Yue with dissatisfaction. He thought she was a smart woman, but who knew? Haha!
Asha covered her face with her hand. She could feel that half of her face was swollen. It was obvious that the woman had used a lot of strength.
"It's okay." She slowly turned to look at the director. "I'm afraid I can't shoot with my face like this. Let's redo this scene later. I'll go back first." After saying that, she walked straight into the dressing room. Xiao Hua followed her with a sullen face.
Tang Yue bit her lip and hurried into the dressing room.
"Are you okay?" Tang Yue asked. Only Asha and Xiao Hua were in the dressing room. Tang Yue walked to her side and sat down. "I didn't do it on purpose. Do you want me to let you hit me back?"
As soon as Tang Yue finished speaking, she saw Asha raise her hand and give her a hard slap across the face.
"You …" Tang Yue covered her face in horror. She didn't expect Asha to really hit her.
Ah Sha grinned. Half of her swollen face looked hideous. "Everyone has to pay the price for their actions. Since you've done this, how can I not take it?" After that, she stood up and walked towards the door. But when she reached the door, she turned around and walked away.
"Don't kill yourself too early. It'll be boring if you do!"
Tang Yue froze. For a moment, she thought she saw Wan Qingsi. How was that possible? How could a little girl have that kind of aura?
Flowery picked up Ah Sha's backpack. Somehow, she managed to topple the stool Tang Yue was sitting on. Before Tang Yue could react, she was already sprawled on the floor. Her hairpin had fallen out of her hair and was now in a mess.
Tang Yue stood up with a cold expression and glared at the door. Then, she looked into the mirror and saw her swollen face. A calculating smile appeared on her face. Then, with red eyes, she covered her face and ran out of the dressing room.
"What did you say?" Wan Qingsi stood up from behind his desk. His eyes were like those of a demon who had just crawled out of hell. Xiao Hua pinched her own arm hard to keep herself from passing out.
"It's … It's … It was … It was too sudden. I didn't think that woman would really hit me." Xiao Hua was on the verge of tears. Sob sob sob. Why did her young master become even scarier?
Xunxun's entire body was radiating anger. His entire body was tense. He sneered. "Good … Very good. Our Asha has never been touched by anyone since she was a child. But now she's been slapped. Haha!"
Xiao Hua swallowed. "I … I'll go kill her tonight."
"Kill her?" Xunxun's eyes clouded over. "That's too easy. Go ruin her face and throw her into the red-light district."
Xiao Hua's head was pounding like garlic. "Yes, I'll go right away!" Then, she ran away.
Xunxun smashed the wine cabinet beside him with a punch. For a moment, tenderness flashed across his eyes. "Baby, you actually hurt yourself. Then this game is over …"
In the dead of night, a figure suddenly appeared on the balcony. The figure quickly walked to the bed. Just as the figure was about to make a move, someone behind her spoke.
"What are you doing?"
Xiao Hua froze. She turned around and saw a slim figure walking in.
A woman? And her face was covered, just like Xiao Hua.
"Who are you?"
The person laughed. "Then who are you?"
"If you're here for the woman on the bed, then I advise you to leave. She's offended someone you can't afford to offend." Xiao Hua was surprised. The woman on the bed didn't wake up even though the two of them were talking so loudly.
Xiao Hua was about to bend down to take a look when the woman waved her hand. The alarm outside the window suddenly went off.
"Damn it!" Xiao Hua cursed under her breath. The woman had already flipped over and jumped down from the balcony. Xiao Hua couldn't care less about the woman on the bed. She rushed out after the woman and soon disappeared into the night.
