“Mr. Mu is currently the biggest investor for ‘Yongle Gate’, let me introduce you to everyone.” Immediately, a man beside Mu Beiting explained.

Su Xiangwan froze, her small mouth was slightly opened.

No way… the investor was this bastard?

There really are enemies on a narrow road.

When Mu Beiting saw her reaction, there was a slight arc in the corner of his lips.

In reality, he wasn’t even an investor for ‘Yongle Gate’ up until a few minutes ago. But then again it didn’t really matter much, what was important for these people was that he was their biggest investor, that was enough for them. 

The director quickly warmly introduced him to everyone, “Xiangwan, let me introduce to you to him… this is…”

“There’s no need,” Mu Beiting interrupted with a deep voice.

The director paused, unable to interpret the situation unfolding right now.

“Ms. Su and I are very close.”

Su Xiangwan also froze for a moment. Were they close? How come she didn’t know about this?

What was he actually planning? Couldn’t he see that if gazes could kill, Zhao Xinning would’ve already cut her down seven or eight hundred times already?

Both the director and screenwriter were also stunned for a moment. But in the end, they gathered themselves as they were, in fact, people who had already seen much of the world, they quickly livened up the atmosphere so it wouldn’t feel awkward.

Su Xiangwan unavoidably drank a few glasses of alcohol and got up to go to the bathroom.

However, when she came out of the bathroom, she saw Zhao Xinning block the door with an unsightly expression all over her face.

“Oh, isn’t this the future Mrs. Mu?” Su Xiangwan wiped her hands and smiled.

Zhao Xinning hated the word ‘future’, but she didn’t know whether or not Su Xiangwan was doing it on purpose, she placed emphasis on that word every time they met.

“Su Xiangwan, I know what you’re planning. But I advise you to know your place, otherwise don’t blame me if I retaliate.”

Su Xiangwan raised an eyebrow. “How does Miss Zhao plan to retaliate?”

“I know that you have just entered this circle, and it’s not easy to get a role to your liking. Too bad, I’m also really interested in the role of Begonia. I wonder if I’ll tell Beiting that I also want to take part in this film, will there even be a place for you by then?”

Su Xiangwan narrowed her eyes, her eyes flashed with coldness. She threw the tissue in the bin. “So, Ms. Zhao wants to fight me for this role?”

Zhao Xinning was about to speak when Su Xiangwan suddenly approached her step by step.

Her eyes were cold and filled with a wisp of chill that made her uncomfortable. She subconsciously took a few steps back.

However, as the latter got closer and closer, her high heels made clear and crisp steps on the clean marble floor. “Su Xiangwan, you…”

“There’s nothing wrong with Ms. Zhao wanting to steal my role, however, you have to see whether or not you have the skills to do so!”

Frightened by her imposing manner, Zhao Xinning’s heart felt so tight that she couldn’t speak, it was as if there was a thousand-ton boulder pressing down on her chest.

Su Xiangwan sneered at her and brushed past.

Speaking from the heart, Zhao Xinning’s acting skills in the previous life were pretty good. But those who become famous too quickly, or had a very smooth path laid down for them, tend to find it difficult to calm down and refine their acting skills.

So although she was indeed brought up to the position of a popular award-winning actress, her acting skills were just so-so, the difference between their acting skills was in fact, quite big.

Besides, now, she’s younger and tender since she had only just stepped into the entertainment industry.

This is why she was confident enough to be able to crush her completely in terms of acting skills.

While watching the woman who was walking away, Zhao Xinning gathered back her senses. After thinking back to when she was actually suppressed so much to the point she couldn’t speak, her face turned green.

“Su Xiangwan!”

Su Xiangwan gradually stopped her steps, but didn’t turn around.

“You better stop thinking about seducing Beiting, he’s not someone that women like you can long for! If you refuse a toast and only drink a forfeit, then don’t blame me for being cruel!”

Su Xiangwan sneered. “Oh, really? Then Ms. Zhao might as well give it a try.”
