Chapter 37: Being Scolded Again

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The person who had competed against her was a second-tier actress, Zhou Xiao, who was known for her lousy acting skills.

Both of their performances were comparable to the scene of a car accident. All of the judges, including Gu Li, gave Zhou Xiao five marks.

As for Qiu Yuxin, the other judges gave her six points, while Gu Li only gave her three.

The total score ended up to be 25 to 27, thus Qiu Yuxin won by a narrow margin.

Facing such an outcome, Qiu Yuxin was extremely angry. She couldn’t help but clench her fists and question, “Ms. Gu, please explain why you gave Zhou Xiao five points, while you gave me three when I clearly acted better than her?”

The moment she finished speaking, Gu Li immediately became the center of attention.

Seeing Gu Li become the target of public criticism, Cheng Ying gloated immensely at her misfortune.

When this scene is broadcasted, Gu Li will definitely be cursed by the entire internet. After all, Qiu Yuxin’s fans are famous for being vicious in the fandom.

Faced with Qiu Yuxin’s aggressiveness, Gu Li asked her calmly, “Then, are you satisfied with your performance just now?”

“I…”

Qiu Yuxin hesitated.

She knew very well how bad her acting was, and her answer would be inappropriate no matter how she answered this question.

Gu Li, this little slut. She actually dared to dig a hole for me to jump into?

“It seems like you’re not satisfied with it yourself.”

Gu Li smiled and said, “You’ve always had very high expectations of yourself. You once said in an interview that if you’re not satisfied with your performance, you’ll only give yourself a maximum of three points. And the role you chose this time just happened to be one that you’ve acted before. Then, shouldn’t you be assessed with a higher standard? Of course, if you think it’s unnecessary, I’ll apologize to you and change my score.”

“You—”

Her words were stuck in her throat, and Qiu Yuxin was so angry that she was speechless.

…

At the Mo Corporation…

Lu Yang knocked on the door of the president’s office and walked in lightly.

He placed the documents on the large office desk and reported carefully, “Young Master, this is the review and amendment proposal of the heads of the marketing, sales, and research and development departments. Please take a look.”

During the meeting just now, his young master had harshly criticized a few executives who had made mistakes.

Those people were scolded so harshly that they were scared and didn’t dare to go in front of Mo Shiting, so they could only entrust the task to him.

Lu Yang had been by Mo Shiting’s side for more than ten years. In my impression, Young Master has always restrained himself and he rarely loses control of his emotions. But today, he really is in a bad mood.

It must have something to do with Young Madam, right?

At the thought of this, Lu Yang adjusted his glasses on his nose bridge and asked tentatively, “Young Master, a staff member sent me a video about Young Madam. Do you want to see it?”

Mo Shiting was focused on the computer screen, and his long fingers flew across the keyboard as he ignored Lu Yang.

Seeing this, Lu Yang continued, “It’s a clip of Young Madam acting out a scene. It’s especially exciting.”

Mo Shiting paused in his typing slightly and looked up, a sharp glint flashing across his eyes. “Are you very free?”

Lu Yang braced himself and said, “I’m not, but it’s also my duty to care about you, Young Master.”

“Get out!”

Mo Shiting coldly chased him out.

“…Yes.”

Lu Yang could only leave as per his orders. Before he left, he reminded Mo Shiting dutifully, “I have already sent the video to you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he slipped away faster than a rabbit before Mo Shiting could even respond.

The door closed, and the large office instantly became extremely quiet and cold.

Mo Shiting closed his laptop and pressed his throbbing temples.

The screen of his phone, which was put aside, lit up, and attracted his attention.

Thinking of the video Lu Yang had just mentioned, Mo Shiting pursed his lips. In the end, he reached out his hand and took the phone.

He clicked on the play button and soon, the girl’s charming face appeared on the screen.

Mo Shiting’s heart immediately skipped a beat.

Realizing that his emotions were being influenced by her again, he furrowed his brows in annoyance.

Just as he was about to close the video, the girl’s gaze instantly changed. Her performance was full of layers and extremely touching, and it instantly dispelled his thoughts…

…

By the time the recording ended, it was already night.

After returning home, Gu Li laid on the sofa, not wanting to move even a single bit.

Thinking about how Mo Shiting was going to divorce her the next morning, she was extremely worried.

About an hour later, Da Ha called her. “Boss, have you taken a look at Weibo? You’re being scolded again.”

“Huh? Being scolded?”

Gu Li was dumbfounded. As she opened Weibo, she realized that a keyword with her name had become a trending topic again..
