Chapter 567: Chapter 567: She Got It by Relying on the Backing of Powerful Figures
The backstage staff were all looking this way, and Estelle’s face had gone pale with anger.
Rong Weiwei’s smile secretly curled upward, masking the triumphant look in her eyes, pretending as if she couldn’t see that this whole scene had erupted because of her, as if it were none of her business.
Rong Yan coldly watched the director standing on Rong Weiwei’s side, subtly stepping in front of Estelle, who was shaking with anger yet afraid her rash actions might affect her burgeoning career. Rong Yan met the director’s scornful gaze with a cruel coldness in her beauty, her red lips touched lightly, “Fine.”
Gao Yang frowned, “What do you mean?”
He was sure that Rong Yan didn’t dare to offend him, that even if he had slighted her, she wouldn’t dare to retaliate.
But now, he was somewhat unable to grasp what Rong Yan’s response meant.
In response to his questioning, Rong Yan said indifferently, “Didn’t Director Gao say he didn’t want me to attend the movie premiere and the subsequent celebration party? Fine, I won’t attend.”
“From now on, I won’t participate in any promotions for ‘The Three Kingdoms’. That way, Director Gao won’t have to prepare a special seat for the mystery guest. Just let her take my place and attend directly.”
Gao Yang had never expected Rong Yan to be so defiant. He was so taken aback by her sarcasm that he couldn’t recover for a long while. When he finally did, his face darkened, and he warned through gritted teeth, “What kind of attitude is this? Do you think I wouldn’t dare cut your scenes just because the movie is about to be released?”
“I’m telling you, today is just the premiere for the media. If you insist on making a scene here, I have the right to ‘reasonably’ reduce your parts after the release!”
Rong Yan was about to laugh, standing tall with a spine like a pen, her beautiful eyes coldly watching him, “Please do as you wish if Director Gao can manage that!”
This movie was originally something she had snatched from Rong Weiwei by turning to Li Shengxiao in deliberate interference, after Rong Weiwei had nearly drowned Little Baby in the lake.
All the other resources she had were fought for with her own efforts, except for this one, which she had obtained openly by relying on her sugar daddy.
She truly wasn’t afraid of others playing the game of bullying using their status against her!
After speaking her piece, Rong Yan did not care about the director’s face turning green in an instant. Instead, she turned to Rong Weiwei, who was enjoying the drama, with a mocking look on her face, “You don’t have to hint overtly and covertly to everyone that this role is yours. You know very well whether the role was unavailable to you or you were replaced. You love self-deception, and I don’t mind that, but it’s wrong to irritate others. If you really can’t accept it, you could ask the director to use you as my replacement. After all, you’re already making a mysterious appearance, and you’re so worried I won’t perform well. Why don’t you take over? That way, your fans on the internet won’t feel regret at not seeing you in the role. You’re so considerate; you wouldn’t want to leave the media and your fans feeling disappointed, would you?”
“…”
Rong Weiwei’s meticulously made-up face turned shades of green and white. If not for the thick makeup, her changing complexion would have been obvious to all.
Damn it, what did she mean by that?
Wasn’t that just a blatant way of saying she didn’t have the ability to take the role and could only jealously criticize from the sidelines?
Rong Weiwei’s fingernails dug deeply into her flesh, her ears ringing with agitation, wishing she could lash back immediately. But she didn’t dare to speak up.
Maybe others didn’t know who the ‘boyfriend’ behind Rong Yan was, but she knew very well now.
The Three Kingdoms was a major investment by the Li Group, which explained why Rong Yan was able to snatch the role from her. It was all because she relied on that man behind the scenes!
Yet even though she was filled with jealousy, anger, and resentment, she knew that she couldn’t wrestle the movie back with her scheming.
