Chapter 724 - 724 You Are Not Worthy
Young Master Gu, Please Be Gentle
724 You Are Not Worthy
After Chen Tao insulted her, he stormed out.
The moment he stepped out he was stopped in his tracks. There was a huge group of people outside the door. Haining, the assistant director and the scriptwriter were at the forefront, followed closely by Bai Feifei, Han Xiaowan and a crowd of other actresses.
All these people had overheard what he had said just now.
Seeing them, Chen Tao was shocked. He promptly turned around and looked at Tang Moâer.
Tang Moâerâs bright eyes landed on his face. A faint sneer played on her red lips.
Chen Tao realized that he had been tricked!
âDirector Hai, I...â Chen Tao began to explain.
Haining stared at him with a piercing gaze. âYou kept hiding Moâerâs name during the audition. Itâs because you wanted to bed Moâer and use it to blackmail her?â
âI...â
Caught red-handed, Chen Tao was unable to offer any explanation. He had never imagined himself to be stuck in a situation like this.
Han Xiaowan was hiding in the crowd and her face went white, cursing at this lustful fellow in her heart. Couldnât he keep it in his pants? All because he had wanted to bed Tang Moâer so much, now his lust had done him in. All their efforts had come to naught.
Sh*t! Han Xiaowan looked around furtively. She needed to escape.
At this moment, Tang Moâer walked over. âYes, Director Hai. Producer Chen did ask me to go to the bar to drink with him.â With that, Tang Moâerâs gaze landed on Han Xiaowan, who was preparing to sneak away. âHe told me Han Xiaowan was already with him, and that she would definitely get Shangguan Manâerâs role. If I could learn from Han Xiaowan, I would be able to choose any role in âThe Concubineâ.
Upon hearing these words, the actresses started to whisper amongst themselves. Everyone looked at Han Xiaowanâ-
âGoodness, I didnât think that Producer Chen would be a wolf in sheepâs clothing. Itâs a good thing he didnât have designs on me.â
âDid you all hear that earlier? Han Xiaowan has slept with Chen Tao! Chen Tao even said that sheâs already been screwed rotten by men.â
âThatâs nothing new. Han Xiaowan is famous for this in the entertainment industry. Everyone knows that she liked to bed other men.â
âAt the audition, she even performed an inappropriately provocative scene. Itâs unbelievable that she still can take on the role of a servant. She must have slept with Chen Tao many times to be able to take on the role.â
âTo have such people in the acting cast of âThe Concubineâ is simply polluting the air.â
Just as Han Xiaowan was about to slip away, Tang Moâer directed everyoneâs attention onto her and she was unable to escape.
Hainingâs countenance looked dreadful. âWe canât have people like this in our acting cast of âThe Concubineâ. Han Xiaowan, scram and donât come back! You are officially off our production.â
With that, Haining looked at Chen Tao. âAs for Producer Chen, from now on, you are on your own!â
Chen Taoâs wife was a fatty. But the fattyâs father was the third largest stakeholder of Cathay Entertainment, and thus Chen Tao was assigned to be in the acting cast of âThe Concubineâ. Because of this connection, Haining did not have the authority to fire Chen Tao.
Stunned, Han Xiaowanâs mouth fell open. It was a dream. How could she be asked to leave? They had everything planned! Swallowing, she looked towards Chen Tao for help.
But Chen Tao evaded her gaze. It was evident that he was unable to save her now.
Chen Tao had abandoned her!
This was preposterous!
Han Xiaowan was filled with hatred. âDirector Hai, donât we have to settle another issue here? Tang Moâer tampered with Feifeiâs makeup base. Shouldnât you chase Tang Moâer out too?â
Hmph! Han Xiaowan looked at Tang Moâer with an evil smirk. Tang Moâer had used dirty tricks to chase her out. There was no way she was going to let her stay and get all the glory.
âDirector Hai, I will not let the matter rest regarding Tang Moâerâs actions on me!â Bai Feifei made her stand clear.
At this juncture, Tang Moâer walked over. âBai Feifei, listen carefully. I did not tamper with your makeup base.â
Bai Feifei snorted coldly. âWill a thief admit that sheâs a thief?â
A curve graced Tang Moâer red lips. âThere needs to be a motive when committing bad acts. Why would I attack you?â
âBecause you are jealous of mã¼â
Tang Moâer gave a cold laugh before Bai Feifei could complete her sentence. âWhat a joke!â
Bai Feifeiâs expression changed.
âIâm jealous of you? You may now be considered the top beauty of the âFour Beautiesâ, but do not forget that this is a position that was left vacant by me. If I was still around, do you think you would be here at all?
âAnd to think you still have the cheek to say Iâm jealous of your face. You dare to boast about your face in front of me? I donât want to put you down, but you are not worthy enough for me to do something to your face!â Tang Moâerâs soft voice was composed yet forceful.
Hearing the provocative words, Bai Feifei was so furious that she nearly vomited blood. This Tang Moâer was indeed sharp-tongued and could humiliate anyone with merely a few words.
Just then, she heard peals of laughter. The actresses were laughing at her secretly.
There was nothing she could do. It was true that she did not have any acting skills to speak of, and in terms of looks, although she was pretty, she paled in comparison to Tang Moâerâs ravishing looks.
Bai Feifei clenched her fists. âTang Moâer, donât you dare to deny it. You said it wasnât done by you? Do you have any evidence? Whatâs the use of having a sharp mouth?â
âOf course I have evidence,â Tang Moâer said.
Bai Feifei froze.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Tang Moâer walked ahead and picked up the bottle of makeup base, which had rose petals in it, from the floor. âBai Feifei, this makeup base belongs to a famous international brand. You were the spokesperson for this company and did a commercial for them recently, and so they gave you this makeup base. The company even engraved your English name on the bottle, right?â
âThatâs right.â
Tang Moâer turned the bottle around. âBut your name is not on this bottle of makeup base.â
What?
Bai Feifei was stunned. She promptly glanced at her manager.
The manager was also shocked. This incident had happened suddenly, and she had only thought of looking at the makeup base, but not the bottle.
Who would have known that this bottle of makeup base was fake?
âAnd so, this matter is very simple. As long as we find out where your real makeup base is, we will know who the culprit is.â Tang Moâer smiled.
This sudden turn of events left the actresses engaged in a fresh wave of vicious chattering. Just then, Haining spoke up, âEveryone open your bags now. We are going to check everyoneâs bags, one at a time.â
âAh!â At this moment, someone gave a cry. âItâs in Han Xiaowanâs bag!â
What?! Han Xiaowan was shocked. Someone had dashed over, tugged her bag down, and opened her bag to see. Low and behold, there was the bottle of makeup base with Bai Feifeiâs English name engraved on it.
âHan Xiaowan, itâs actually you!â
âHan Xiaowan, you tampered with Feifeiâs makeup base! Not only that, you tried to make Moâer the scapegoat and then watch them tussle with each other. You are so unbelievably evil!â...
âNo, I didnât, I really didnât. I was framed!â Han Xiaowan had not even made sense of what was happening, and she was already viewed as the villain by everyone. She tried to explain in a flustered state.
Slap!
Bai Feifei was so incensed at being tricked that she quickly dashed ahead and slapped Han Xiaowan. Han Xiaowanâs face was thrown to the side.
âHan Xiaowan, you actually treated me like a fool and lied to me! Just wait until Iâm finished with you!â Bai Feifei forcefully squeezed and pinched Han Xiaowan a couple of times.
It hurt! Han Xiaowan was in so much pain she teared.
As she watched the scene unfold in front of her eyes, Tang Moâer simply stood at the side. Her pristine eyes gleamed coldly in derision. She had not been in the entertainment industry these three years. Since they wanted to play with her, she would accept the challenge!
