Now that she finally happened to see herself clearly, she was shocked.
How come she looked like this now!
No, it must not be her!
Terrified, she tried to cover her face, but the reflection did the exact same thing as if reminding her that she could not deceive herself when the truth was right in front of her.
No… No! This couldn't go on! This must not continue like this!
Tears formed in her eyes.
When did it start to go wrong, when?!
Then an image of a woman's cold sneer appeared in her mind.
Xiong. Zhi.
That bitch.
It was the crazy bitch's fault!
She framed her father and set everything up!
In the past few days, she always thought of Xiong Zhi, the woman who ruined her and her father's life. She cursed her over and over. She thoughts of ways on how to torture that bitch and kill her in her mind many times.
Her eyes sharpened with a murderous light.
"Just you see… I will kill you soon! You'll go to hell! You s.l.u.t!"
However...
Despite the surging anger and madness in her mind, a question popped up.
To get her revenge, how could she do that?
She did not even have her father with her now...
How...
While feeling as if she had sunk into a bottomless abyss, her phone suddenly rang.
The cracked phone lit up.
Xiong Wuyue's empty eyes suddenly lit up as well.
She scrambled forward as fast as she could to get to her phone.
She did not even care when her feet got wounded by the shards she had kicked up.
"H-hello..?" Her hoarse voice sounded inside the room.
"Hello? Is this Miss Xiong Wuyue's number?"
She froze for a moment, worried that the paparazzi got hold of her phone number, but then relaxed when she recalled that this phone number was the personal line she gave for important calls and only a handful knew of this in the entertainment industry.
"Y-yes. Who are you?" Xiong Wuyue prayed at this moment that this person was one of her father's subordinate.
"Oh, good day, Miss Xiong Wuyue. I tried to call your manager but she is out of reach. I managed to get your number from a producer with much difficulty. I am K from the Public Relations Team of 'The Lone Star and its Night'. We want to inform you that three days from now, we will be announcing the leads in FC Hall of Q City after lunch, at one in the afternoon. "
"!!!" Xiong Wuyue's dark life suddenly saw the light.
"I-I'll be there!" She had never been this happy with getting a role!
Usually, only actors who get the role were invited to attend.
Due to her desperation, she failed to realize the unusualness of how the other person never told her that she got the role. Her unstable frame of mind was only thankful that there was a chance to redeem herself.
"Alright. We will confirm your attendance on the roster. We'll be expecting you. Good day."
The call ended right there.
Xiong Wuyue was still holding the phone against her ear.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/to-love-you-again_15549809506927505/little-by-little-(ii)_50977898944852951 for visiting.
She had thought that her life was gone for good, but who knew that this chance would come!
Like a light shimmering in the deep hole, this chance became her saving grace.
Her lifeless eyes shone with an unprecedented bright light, the corners of her eyes warming up with unshed tears.
If she became the 'Lone Star', took this movie, and got famous in Hollywood, opportunities would come flocking onto her! Even without the Xiong's banquet and her father's help, she could still live as the Queen of Entertainment World.
Many people would fawn over her again and crawl back to her. They would beg her to come back to the agency!
Furthermore, her muddy reputation would also be washed clean!
Yes! This was the chance!
Xiong Wuyue suddenly had a ray of hope in her life.
She would rise from the ashes and then... she would kill Xiong Zhi!
The sunken eyes on the mirror showed determination fueled by hatred. But realizing how she looked like a malnourished ghost right now, Xiong Wuyue decided to eat a lot today and prep herself up.
****
Three days passed by instantly.
Xiong Zhi was handling the doc.u.ments she needed to check inside IHZHI's office when she received a call from Xiao Mei.
"Zhi'er, are you still coming? I already reserved the seat you mentioned. It's about time to start."
Over the past years, Xiao Mei and Xiong Zhi had many chances to spend time together because IHZHI had begun expanding its scope in the entertainment industry, a subdivision which Xiao Mei was managing.
Due to this, the two became closer and now they called each other by their first name intimately.
"Um. I'll be coming. This is a very luxurious entertainment for me after all. It's too bad to waste it." Xiong Zhi began to wrap up the doc.u.ments on her table.
"...? Alright, then I'll be waiting here." Xiao Mei could not understand what Xiong Zhi was talking about, but since she was busy in her end, she quickly ended the call after exchanging a few more words.
"Will she come?" Seeing that Xiao Mei had finished the call, Song Xuantin, who had grown up into an embodiment of temptation, asked with amorous phoenix eyes.
"Yes. She might be late, but I am sure that she will come to support you."
"Hehe," Song Xuantin raised her brows and looked at her with pointed eyes. "Let me guess, she sounds happy from the other line, right?"
Xiao Mei was still confused. "Yes, she did sound happy. It should not be surprising. After all, it is your first debut in Hollywood and is likely going to bring positive results..."
Song Xuantin raised her hand to cut off whatever Xiao Mei was saying.
"Hehe, she must have mentioned that it is a pleasant thing to come here, right? To be precise, like a very nice entertainment or something?"
Xiao Mei was stunned. "Err… She really did." She tilted her head. "She said it's a luxurious entertainment." And she did not understand what Xiong Zhi meant by that.
Song Xuantin smirked. She confirmed it.
"That my friend, means that Zhi'er will come here not for me. Anyway, you will understand later. We're probably going to have a really~ nice show tonight. I'm kind of looking forward to it, hehe."
'Show?'
The clueless Xiao Mei just blinked her eyes, but there were still a lot of things she needed to do. "Anyway, I won't care about anything as long as you do well in your interview later!"
Xiao Mei lightly pinched Song Xuantin's waist.
"Ow! My flawless skin! I am going to be bruised! How can I go to work in the future? They will see my bruised skin…" Song Xuantin pretentiously cried.
"Stop exaggerating. With your recent shenanigans, be thankful I didn't beat you up."
"You're cruel!"
"Cruel? Do you want me to make your so-called bruises cover your whole body? Maybe you could try going back to your beloved boyfriend and complain then. If he wants you back."
Song Xuantin immediately quieted down, pouting.
'My manager is a total sadist!' she internally cried.
