Xiao Rufeng didn't want to party tonight, but since the rest of the crew of "Demonvile" was here to celebrate, she supposed she wouldn't be able to decline the invitation. She stared at her drink and tuned out the conversations around her.
Knowing that her manager was also here, she wasn't as nervous as she was when she arrived earlier. She was the female lead of the series, yet Ye Mingyu was taking the limelight and being friendly with the rest of the staff.
'Such a two-faced woman.' Xiao Rufeng thought.
Seeing Ye Mingyu reminded her of her younger half-sister who could easily win the hearts of those people around her. Xiao Rufeng was the first miss of the Xiao family, but her status meant nothing as everything was already in Xiao Yunyao's hands.
Her father's love, everyone's recognition, her first love's affection... Xiao Rufeng found it funny that she had to fight with Xiao Yunyao for the things she wanted.
Before coming here, she paid her family a visit. Everyone deemed her as the unwanted daughter, the black sheep of the family. Her father vehemently disagreed with her decision to become an actress, but Xiao Rufeng knew she wouldn't be able to live the life her father wanted her to.
Once she was out of their family mansion, it was only then she received an invitation from the rest of the crew to celebrate. Xiao Rufeng wanted to retire early for the night, but seeing how excited the rest of the crew was, she found herself agreeing to meet them tonight.
However, upon arrival, she was surprised to hear that it was Ye Mingyu who suggested the idea. Xiao Rufeng stared at Ye Mingyu for a moment, feeling that something was wrong with the other woman.
Ye Mingyu was extra friendly towards her lately, as if she wanted to establish that she and Xiao Rufeng got along really well. Xiao Rufeng didn't know what Ye Mingyu was up to, but she refused to be played by her.
Her phone beeped indicating a new message. Xiao Rufeng read it at once and froze.
"Don't drink and eat anything that Ye Mingyu gives you. Drink less if possible."
Her eyes widened in shock. She didn't know her manager was also here in Shenjing with her. While Bluemedia's headquarters was in Guangshang, Xiao Rufeng heard that their company just opened a regional branch here in Shenjing.
She then sighed in relief. It seemed that she wasn't the only one thinking that something was off with Ye Mingyu tonight. Since Ye Mingyu wasn't able to kick her out of the cast, Xiao Rufeng had been extra careful during her scenes with her.
"Sister Xiao, why aren't you partying with us? Are you unwell? Here, drink this. It's a concoction I made at the bar just for you."
Xiao Rufeng lifted her gaze and saw Ye Mingyu looking down at her worriedly, but her eyes couldn't hide the glint of mischief in them.
"I'm fine.Thank you, but I would rather not drink that." She eyed the cocktail drink Ye Mingyu was trying to give to her. "I'm allergic to certain drinks, so why don't Sister Ye drink for me instead? It must be amazing."
