Sweet Beauty

Liang Zixuan looked at Jiang Ning with a trace of mockery in her eyes. She suddenly stretched out her hand to press down on the eyeshadow box, then forcefully pulled it out.

Jiang Ning's heels were embedded in the box and when Liang Zixuan forcefully pulled it out, her body fell backward onto the ground.

*Putong!*

Liang Zixuan half squatted, looked at Jiang Ning's miserable appearance, bared her teeth, and then sneered. "You should at least spend tens of thousands on your shoes, right? What's wrong? Expensive stuff like that can't even help you stand strong?"

A few sneers came from the side.

Jiang Ning's face turned red as she held her waist, feeling that her waist was about to break. She was so angry that she wanted to tear Liang Zixuan apart, but her waist hurt so much that she couldn't even stand up.

Out of the corner of her eye, Jiang Ning saw her assistant standing in the crowd, looking at her with a smile. "What are you standing there for! Hurry up and help me!"

The two who were being stared at by Jiang Ning could only shrink their necks and squeeze out of the crowd, reluctantly helping her up.

Just as she was helped, she threw away the assistant's hand and slapped Liang Zixuan's face.

Liang Zixuan had just finished packing her bag. Seeing Jiang Ning's hand swing over, she easily blocked the incoming hand with her bag.

Jiang Ning's hand happened to hit the stuff in the bag. Her hand immediately became numb. It hurt so much that her tears fell.

Liang Zixuan looked up. "Yo, why are you crying? Who is bullying you? Jiang Ning, tell me, I'll help you take care of her!"

Jiang Ning looked at her angrily. She was so angry that she almost went crazy.

Why was every time she did something to Liang Zixuan, the one who always suffers was her?!

Why?

Why?!

Liang Zixuan patted her bag as if nothing had happened. She didn't seem to put the Jiang Ning in her eyes. She picked up the bag and stood up, returning to her seat with a full view.

Zhu Sheng entered from outside. He glanced at Jiang Ning, who was squatting on the ground and crying in grief before clapping towards the scattered crowd. "Everyone, come here. I have something to announce!"

The people who had just taken a few steps away gathered again. Liang Zixuan also walked closer.

Zhu Sheng smiled and said, "It's a pleasure to see three people from our department nominated for the Best Sound Award for the Venice Film Festival!"

Jiang Ning listened to the important part and stopped crying. She stood up from the ground with a grunt and looked at Zhu Sheng with bright eyes. "Three people? Which three people?"

Zhu Sheng didn't keep her in suspense and immediately answered, "He Zimu for 'Stolen Beauty', Jiang Ning for 'Yes, Maybe, No' and Liang Zixuan for 'Girl of The Rose'."

Jiang Ning was so happy that she almost went crazy when she heard that she had been nominated. However, when she heard that Liang Zixuan had also been nominated, her face darkened.

"Director Zhu, are you sure you're not wrong? Liang Zixuan also be nominated?"

Zhu Sheng looked at her unhappily. "How can I mistakenly remember something like that? Liang Zixuan deserves it!"

"That's impossible!" Jiang Ning shook her head in disbelief. "I don't believe that Liang Zixuan can be nominated. This is the Venice Film Festival! The film festival with the longest history in the country and is also the most authoritative. As a newcomer, how does she qualify?"

It was as if she wasn't a newbie herself.

Zhu Sheng's face changed more and more unsightly. He ignored Jiang Ning and immediately said, "If you doubt Liang Zixuan's ability, go and talk to the judge! Why are you looking at me? It was as if I opened the back door to let her in. Don't just stand there. He Zimu and Liang Zixuan, be ready."

Jiang Ning glared at Zhu Sheng before she turned to Liang Zixuan. "Don't assume you won, the judges are all fair, and it's not something you can get just because you have a backer."

Liang Zixuan patted her chest exaggeratedly and said with lingering fear. "I can be sure now that you said it. I'm afraid that they deliberately threw away that water for your father's sake and gave you an automatic win. As long as it's fair and just, that's great!"

"Liang Zixuan!" Jiang Ning exploded. She no longer cared about her image and scolded like a madwoman. "What are you saying, you bitch! I graduated from Curtis Music Academy! It fitted for me to win the award. The judges are not blind. Don't think that you can be on the same level as me just because you are nominated. Let me tell you, you are still far from the same level as me!"

Liang Zixuan gave a faint smile, which formed a stark contrast with Jiang Ning's gnashing teeth. "It doesn't matter if the judges are blind. The Best Sound Award is something we rely on our ears to listen to. Don't worry, it will be fair."

"You…You …!" Jiang Ning was so angry that her chest went up and down as if about to explode.

Zhu Sheng frowned and said impatiently, "What are you arguing about? It's a good thing you guys made it. Jiang Ning, don't find trouble with Liang Zixuan every time you have nothing to do. You are spouting nonsense now. If you don't get the prize by then, you will lose face!"

"I'm looking for trouble with her?" Jiang Ning was so angry with Zhu Sheng's words that she cried. She had never suffered so much in her life.

"It was obviously her who caused this trouble for me! At the press conference, she had used some dirty tricks to attract the netizens' attention. She had really treated everyone like idiots and publicly said how good her music was! Those people couldn't even recognize the musical notes, so they would believe whatever she said! This film festival, how could she be qualified based on her level? I really can't believe that the domestic entertainment industry is at this level!"

Whatever she said, Zhu Sheng could hold it back. But in the last sentence, he really can't. It was like she looked down on him too by saying that.

"Jiang Ning, why are you forcing yourself to come back here? Go back to your Hollywood! Let me tell you, if you lose to Liang Zixuan at this film festival, you will lose all your face! You keep saying that if other people don't have diplomas or qualifications, they won't even be able to win against you. If you lose, don't show up at Han Group in the future!"

Jiang Ning stomped her foot in hatred. "I can't beat her? You just wait and see! This award will definitely be mine!"

She turned around, gritted her teeth, and said Liang Zixuan. "Just you'll see!"

Liang Zixuan smirked. "Alright. Whoever loses gets lost!"

Zhu Sheng watched Jiang Ning's figure left angrily. He then smiled at Liang Zixuan. "Don't take her words to heart. Her princess attitude is so overbearing, there's no need to get angry with her."

Liang Zixuan smiled indifferently. "I'm not angry. I'm really not angry at all. With her around, my life became more joyful. Watching her being slapped in the face has been a joy in my daily life."

Zhu Sheng was stunned for a moment. He didn't think Liang Zixuan's words were so poisonous. He then laughed out loud.. "Your attitude is pretty good! Liang Zixuan, based on your attitude, I think you can beat her."
