Chapter 213 - 213: I Am Rich
"None of the kids of the Zhao family are good people.
" Tang Chunxiu gritted her teeth.
Tang Chunxiu looked at her large and luxurious bedroom. It was resplendent and luxurious with expensive furniture. She had the latest fashion jewelry and long dresses. She was living the life of an ideal rich lady, but this place was as cold as an ice cellar.
Her husband, Zhao Jing, had not returned home for a long time.
He was outside hugging eighteen or nineteen-year-old young models and sleeping around all night.
Tang Chunxiu sat on the gorgeous quilt. Her fingers caressed the red peony embroidery patterns on the quilt. The patterns were exquisite, and her fingertips were itchy. Once again, she was alone in the empty room.
She had lived like this for more than ten years, and she was gradually getting used to it. How could a noble family have true love? She had complained, cried, and laughed all these years. In the end, she finally understood that only the money in her arms and the power in her hands were powerful bargaining chips for a woman.
"Zhao Jing, just you wait. I will make your life a living hell...
"
"I will let Manshi marry a first-class noble in the capital. Manshi is my greatest asset and my greatest support.
"
"This is what you owe me...
"
"Let Manshi become famous and attract the nobles in the capital. Song Chen, Cheng Kaiyuan, CEO Lu, and CEO Wang are all suitable candidates...
"
The night was quiet. Tang Chunxiu fell asleep, dreaming of her aspirations.
...
The next day, Zhao Manshi once again went to Hengdian. She spent the whole night meticulously preparing, memorizing lines, and honing her acting skills.
She had studied acting, drama, and screenwriting in university, and her skills were not bad.
The unruly young lady in Lu Shanhe's movie was practically tailor-made for Zhao Manshi, so the audition went very smoothly. Lu Shanhe was beaming with joy when he saw it, and he was in a good mood.
The matter of the second female lead was soon settled.
The production team started to prepare again. They started to work immediately to make up for the delays in filming.
However, Lu Shanhe's official announcement of the second female lead on Weibo still caused a small disturbance. The fans who were the angriest were Cao Yuezhi's fans. Their idol's role had been snatched away, and it was even snatched away by an unknown newcomer. This infuriated these fans.
There was another round of roasting and bullying.
Some fans dug out Zhao Manshi's background, saying that she went through the back door and that she had the same connections as Gu Manxi.
Zhao Manshi wasn't like Gu Manxi, who had to swallow her anger. She was a rich lady after all. How dare these brainless fans who were hiding behind the keyboard offend her?
Without saying anything, Zhao Manshi spent money to hire a large group of internet trolls and roasted Cao Yuezhi's fans throughout the night.
She even opened a social media account, hinting that she was rich, that she was more suitable for the second female role than Cao Yuezhi, that she was younger and prettier than her, and that her education was higher than hers. Too bad, so sad.
It was said that there was a rich kid in the capital who had a crush on Zhao Manshi. When this rich kid saw that his admirer was being attacked, he was so angry that he used his connections to directly block a group of Cao Yuezhi's fan accounts.
In short, with the power of money, Cao Yuezhi's fans, who had always been able to overcome all obstacles, actually showed a slight weakness under the Manshi's attacks.
Zhao Manshi also reaped a small wave of popularity in this battle.
...
Zhao Manshi officially entered the production team.
Faced with this sister who had once hurt her, Gu Manxi's heart always felt a little uncomfortable. She didn't know what kind of conspiracy she was planning this time.
After being hurt many times, Gu Manxi was on guard. She carefully interacted with Zhao Manshi, keeping an eye on everything. Gu Chu was also worried. From time to time, she would pull out the surveillance and eavesdropping equipment in the crew, keeping an eye on Zhao Manshi's movements.
After a few days, everything was peaceful.
