Chapter 153 - My Sister, She... (2)
Chapter 153: My Sister, She... (2)
After the filming had ended, Gu Manxi came back from the studio and bumped into her sister who was in a dangerous situation. Gu Manxi conveniently saved her from the wheel of the rickshaw and left without saying much. She did not expect Zhao Manshi to still catch up to her.
What kind of trick is she going to play again?
She saw a shocked expression on Zhao Manshi’s delicate face. She stared at Gu Manxi in disbelief. Her worldview was toppled, and all kinds of emotions were boiling in her heart like hotpot.
“You…”
“You…”
After a long time, she still could not say a complete string of words.
“Ah, right-” it was the assistant director, Wang Fugui, who reacted. He patted his head and laughed loudly. “I remember! Today, Miss Manxi has a scene in men’s clothing. Miss Zhao, the person you are looking for should be Manxi. Haha, it’s really fate!”
Gu Manxi was puzzled. “You’re looking for me?”
Zhao Manshi was stunned on the spot for a full minute.
Her almond-shaped eyes suddenly turned red, and her heels fiercely stomped on the floor. “How could it be you! You… you… Gu Manxi, you’ve really gone too far! How dare you lie to me?!”
Gu Manxi tilted her head and was puzzled. “Explain yourself. I don’t understand.”
She had yet to completely break away from the state where she was disguised as a man. Although she was in a woman’s body, she had a charm that surpassed that of a man.
Zhao Manshi’s eyes reddened. She wanted to curse, but she couldn’t get it out.
The ups and downs of life happened in a short period of time. The person she loved the most and hated the most was actually the same person!
“I… I don’t want to see you anymore!” The young lady ran out of the room sobbing, leaving behind a dumbfounded Gu Manxi and a crowd full of questions.
Zhao Manshi ran all the way out of the studio, feeling extremely wronged.
Why was it Gu Manxi, this b- oh no, this annoying woman?!
Why was she so handsome in men’s clothing?!
I actually fell in love with her in men’s clothing at first sight. If this were to be known, wouldn’t I be laughed at by others?
The dignified young miss of the Zhao family was infatuated with her own sister…
She felt wronged, bitter, and sullen.
Hengdian occupied a large area, and there were people coming and going everywhere. Zhao Manshi found a bench and sat down, looking like she had nothing to live for.
Underneath the blue sky, white cloud, and feeling the light breeze, Zhao Manshi could not help but reflect on herself after she calmed down. She hated Gu Manxi, why did she hate her?
Do I hate her because she’s prettier than me? Or do I hate her because she got pregnant before marriage? Or do I hate the fact that she had so many rich people around her?
At the end of the day… it was just ‘jealousy’.
“Is director Lu crazy?” Two female actresses were sitting on the bench. They started to gossip when they had nothing better to do. “He doesn’t want the best actress to be the lead. He wants an insignificant C-list actress who has been out of the industry for five years to be the female lead.”
Zhao Manshi’s ears twitched slightly as she turned her head to look.
One of the female actresses shrugged and said with disdain, “What do you know? I sneaked a look at Director Lu’s crew before. Oh, that female lead is as beautiful as a vixen. Her butt is so flirtatious. Director Lu is a man, you know that.”
“Sigh, another female star who climbed into the director’s bed with her body. The entertainment industry is really dirty,” the female actresses echoed.
Zhao Manshi suddenly became furious!
I’m jealous of Gu Manxi, so I can scold her!
Who are you two? How dare you gossip behind my back!
