Chapter 262 - Who Is That Auntie

“Do you think I can’t teach you a lesson? You who have just joined the entertainment business?” Yu Yixian roared.

Ms. Liu and Ms. Zhao looked at each other, wondering if they really should try and grab Tan Mo. It was impossible to get past Zhou Jingan.

The moment they took a step forward to try and approach Tan Mo, Zhou Jingan glared at them, and they stopped immediately.

“You better take that makeup off or I’m going to get you today!” Yu Yixian barked as she rubbed her wrist that had been gripped tightly by Zhou Jingan earlier. “I’m going to make sure you won’t survive in this industry!”

“This industry?” Tan Mo looked at the actress with her big eyes. “What industry are you talking about?”

She was confused as they weren’t even working in the same industry.

Yu Yixian stared at Tan Mo, unable to believe that the little girl actually had the nerve to challenge her.

The staff had started to arrive after hearing all the commotion.

“Ms. Yu, what’s wrong?” a hotel employee asked as he tried to stand in between Tan Mo and Yu Yixian. “Maybe we can help you solve the problem?”

“Oh? Then take her and make her remove her makeup,” Yu Yixian ordered as she pointed at Tan Mo.

“How dare you?” Tan Jinqi scolded Yu Yixian immediately on his arrival. He was glad to see that Zhou Jingan was protecting Tan Mo by shielding her behind him.

Tan Mo even had the audacity to peek her head out from behind Zhou Jingan in order to challenge Yu Yixian.

It was then that Tan Jinqi realized he was starting to understand his little sister a little better.

Only his two little brothers were dumb enough to think that Tan Mo could get bullied because they hadn’t spent a lot of time with her.

After spending the whole winter break with Tan Mo, Tan Jinqi had gotten to see what Tan Mo was really like.

She was the type of person who would say nice things to people who were nice to her and mean things to people who were mean to her. Another of her traits was that she didn’t feel bad about dragging someone who had made her angry deep down into the mud.

Of course, that didn’t change Tan Jinqi’s image of his little sister, which was of a cute and gentle girl. She was still the most important member of the Tan family.

The only change was that he realized he didn’t have to worry about Tan Mo when she wasn’t with her family as much as he had thought he needed to previously.

He knew that she had the ability to protect herself.

No one tried to stop Yu Yixian as they knew that her offensive behavior would end in her own demise.

All they could do was take pity on the little girl who had become the actress’s target, especially after seeing her hiding behind Zhou Jingan with a pale expression.

They couldn’t help but wonder what kind of bad luck the little girl had to make the infamous Yu Yixian yell at her like this.

Seeing that Tan Mo was fine, Tan Jinqi let out a sigh of relief and approached his sister.

“Big brother!” Tan Mo exclaimed when she saw him.

Zhou Jingan also let out a sigh of relief. “She’s fine. No one has hurt her.”

“Thank you,” Tan Jinqi nodded as a sign of his gratitude.

He was able to leave Tan Mo and go find the two directors because he trusted Zhou Jingan’s ability to protect Tan Mo.

Yu Yixian was even angrier when she saw that no one was paying any attention to her order. It was the first time she had been embarrassed since she had become famous.

Not only had the organizer not prepared a suite for her at the hotel, but she also hadn’t been able to get the famous Liu Jingping to help with her makeup and had to employ a not-so-famous makeup artist instead.

Now, the three people in front of her were treating her like a nobody.

“Why shouldn’t I?” Yu Yixian scoffed. “I am very important. I don’t care what you do. You better get that makeup off her face… You know what? At first, I thought of letting her off the hook, but now I’m going to make sure she never survives in the entertainment business no matter what she does. If anyone tries to stop me, then I won’t participate in this event, and I’ll tell the press about how I was bullied here.”

By this time, the manager of the ceremony had arrived on scene. “Ms. Yu, we sincerely apologize for what happened today. Please find it in your heart to forgive everyone.”

“Forgive them? Like h*ll!” Yu Yixian yelled. “You heard what happened, right? You choose. Me or her? I’m not going to participate in this awards ceremony as long as she’s here, do you hear me? Are you sure you’re going to chose a nobody over me?”

“But…” The manager hesitated. He had a list of all the guests, but other than the famous ones, he couldn’t put faces to all the names on the list.

“Miss, you are?” The manager had no choice but to ask who Tan Mo was.

There was no way he could chase Tan Mo away. The ceremony wasn’t an event where Yu Yixian could do whatever she wanted or else they would become the biggest joke ever.

It was clear that Yu Yixian was causing a scene here, and the manager had no choice but to find a way to get the little girl to apologize to the actress.

“Oh? So it’s either you or her?” Director Liu and Director Hou had finally arrived.

Since they were both already well over 50, there was no way they could run as fast as Tan Jinqi.

Yu Yixian was immediately stunned when she saw them and couldn’t believe the two famous directors were going to take part in this.

“Directors, are you going to take her side?” Yu Yixian couldn’t hide her surprise because they were well known for never taking anyone’s side in any disputes.

If they really wanted to stop her, then she would have no choice but to back down as they were two of the best directors in the industry.

She would have to rely on them once she grew older and couldn’t act in trendy dramas anymore.

“I am. Is that enough to stop you?” Director Liu raised his eyebrows.

“Of course…I have a lot of respect for you.” Yu Yixian smiled and turned to Tan Mo. “All I want is for her to apologize. It’s not like I wanted her to attend the event without any makeup. I just want her to change it.”

She just could not stand to see Liu Jingping’s work on another person’s face.

“Originally, I wasn’t planning on letting her attend even if she removed her makeup, but since Director Liu has insisted, then we’ll just leave it like that.”

Yu Yixian was still confident because she thought that Director Liu wouldn’t side with Tan Mo all the way. There was no way she would let Tan Mo off the hook without gaining something in her favor, or else people would definitely make fun of her when they learned about the incident.

Now that Tan Mo was being protected by Tan Jinqi, Zhou Jingan, and even Director Liu and Director Hou, she didn’t have to pretend to be a weak young lady anymore.

The little girl turned to the manager of the hotel and asked, “Mister, who is that auntie?”, pointing at Yu Yixian.

Yu Yuxian almost exploded into anger on the spot. “Who the f*ck are you calling auntie?”

The manager kept his mouth shut and did not answer Tan Mo. If he had, it would mean that he agreed that Yu Yixian was already at the age for other people to address her as an auntie.

Tan Mo blinked innocently and said, “Since she looks almost the same age as my uncle, then I should call her auntie, right?”
