Chapter 73: Zhong Yi is Trying to look like a Kind, Innocent Little Girl

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Zhong Yi wasn't angry, but she upturned her red lips and looked at Luosang from head to toe while clicking her tongue. "Luosang, look at you. You're the princess of the Xu Family, yet you're wearing cheap clothes, and you didn't even dare use your real name. You're like a rat passing a street that disgusts everyone. You're so pathetic."

Luosang felt like a sharp sword had pierced through her heart. Her face paled.

What embarrassed her the most wasn't the comedown of her family, but was the fact that she couldn't use her own last name.

She lost everything a year ago, but today, she didn't want to lose everything again.

"Yes, my clothes are cheap, indeed. It only cost me a hundred yuan." Luosang coldly and proudly tucked her hair behind her ear and said, "But I'm prettier than you, so I look better in these cheap clothes than you do in those expensive ones. Plus, I don't even need to wear makeup."

The look in Zhong Yi's face changed immediately. She had been jealous of Luosang her whole life, because Luosang was better than her in terms of both appearance and learning abilities.

"You're so shameless," said Jian Fei. "How dare you compare yourself with our Zhong Yi? Didn't you see the ranking list this year? Our Zhong Yi is in the list of top-ten beauties."

"Sorry, I haven't been paying attention to the current entertainment industry. The girls in that circle all look the same nowadays. I can't even tell the difference between them unless I look very carefully. And to be honest, every woman can be beautiful with makeup. Even a manager with tiny eyes and buck teeth like you could become as pretty as a phoenix with some work." Luosang twisted her lips and said, "You could only become a fake phoenix though. After all, you may change your appearance, but you can't ever change your nature."

"Shut up!" Jian Fei was so angry that she even tried to slap Luosang.

Luosang grabbed her hand and pushed her away, then stared at her with an icy-cold look and said, "You better be careful. This place is surrounded by surveillance cameras. Your Zhong Yi is trying to make herself look like a kind and innocent little girl, so please don't let others see her throw her weight about." 

After saying that, Luosang turned and left.

She worried that she might get drowned in anger if she took another glance at Zhong Yi and her people.

Jian Fei attempted to stop Luosang from leaving, but Zhong didn't let her.

Zhong Yi laughed and said, "Luosang, we'll see each other again soon."

Luosang quivered slightly, then walked quickly away.

"Zhong Yi…" Jian Fei stomped her foot against the ground in anger.

"Don't worry, we'll have a chance to make her pay for what she said. Since she's here to look for a job, this company must have her files. She won't be able to escape from me, unless she changes her name and leaves this city again," Zhong Yi sneered and said.

After leaving Sky Pictures, Luosang regretted what she said.

Because she was no match for Zhong Yi at the moment, she shouldn't have brought about conflict because the narrow-minded Zhong Yi would probably try to bring her trouble.

However, she then recalled that Yi Jingxi was looking for her as well. Even if she hadn't argued with Jian Fei, Zhong Yi and Yi Jingxi would still come after her.

What worried her the most was that if Yi Jingxi knew about what had happened, she might not be able to continue using the name 'Luo Sang'; or worse, she might need another fresh start.

Once she thought of Yi Jingxi's name, she felt like she had a fire burning inside her heart. She wanted to die with him, but she didn't know how.

For the next few days, Luosang didn't go out to find other jobs. When she thought that Zhong Yi, who was a big star busying around at all kinds of activities, might have forgotten about seeing her, she suddenly got a call from Supervisor Yuan.

"Luo Sang, what is wrong with you? My online series has been scheduled to play on a video site before, and the trailer is already on air. But today, I suddenly got a message that said the series isn't approved, and we can't air it. That doesn't make any sense. I used my connections and got some inside info, then learned that it's because we hired you as a voice actor. Did you offend someone? You must've gotten me in some serious trouble."


Chapter 74: Since You Want So Much to be a Phoenix, How About I Admit that You’re A Genuine one?

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Luosang's heart missed a beat.

What she feared would happen just did. However, she didn't think that would affect Supervisor Yuan.

"Can you air the series if you replace my voice?" she asked.

"Air my ass!" Supervisor Yuan's angry voice was heard as he continued yelling, "you think I haven't thought about that? I asked them but got no response. That means no! And it's because of you. Luosang, I kindly helped you for Professor Ma's sake, and I recommended you to Director Hong. You need to fix this."

Luosang rubbed her forehead, and didn't know what to say.

Hearing no response from her, Supervisor Yuan continued with a begging tone, "Luosang, I haven't known you for a long time, but I know you're a good girl. I don't want to bring you troubles, but my team put so much effort in for this online series. Our director and I have mortgaged all our properties and invested all our money in it. If it can't be aired, then we'll lose everything. We both have parents and children who need our support. Can you please think of us? And think of the leading actresses have just started their careers. They all put their hearts and souls into this series. We can't afford to lose it, or else some of us might even die."

"…Alright, I'll try to fix the problem. Don't worry," said Luosang with a dry voice.

She hadn't known Supervisor Yuan for long, but both he and the director were quite nice to her when she worked together with them. They never pulled ranks on her, and helped her a lot. So, she couldn't let herself bring them into troubles.

Zhong Yi was so cruel. She knew how to target Luosang's weakness.

"I'm sorry," sighed Supervisor Yuan.

"I'm the one who should be sorry," said Luosang.

After hanging up the phone, she sat in her dorm in confusion.

She spent a long time thinking, then tried to dial Zhong Yi's old number. Surprisingly, her call was answered.

"…Zhong Yi, it's me," said Luosang.

"Ah, you," Zhong Yi's careless voice was heard from the phone, "What do you want? Make it quick. I'm busy."

"Supervisor Yuan's online series…" Luosang closed her eyes to calm herself down, then said, "Just tell me, what can I do to make you stop troubling him?"

"You were quite arrogant earlier, weren't you?" said Zhong Yi scornfully, "and you implied that I'm a fake phoenix."

"Since you want so much to be a phoenix, how about I admit that you're a genuine phoenix? But phoenix is an animal, so are you sure you want to be one?" said Luosang.

For some reason, Zhong Yi didn't know how to continue this conversation. "Enough, I don't have time to play word games with you. But since we were good friends, I don't want to go too far. Earlier, I saw that you were shamelessly looking for a job. So how about this, I'm in need of an assistant. As long as you take this job offer, I won't make trouble for Supervisor Yuan," she said.

"You want me to be your assistant so you can laugh at me and insult me as much as you want, right?" said Luosang. She figured out what Zhong Yi wanted.

Zhong Yi didn't try to hide her real purpose and said, "It'll feel great to see the proud Luosang follow my orders. If Jingxi sees it, he'll be happy too."

Luosang clenched her teeth. She remained silent for a while, then said, "Do you two need to see shrinks? Zhong Yi, have I ever done anything that hurt you? Have I ever pulled rank on you or insulted you in some way? Why do you have to take delight in humiliating me? You two have everything now. You're a big star, he took my family business, and you both became billionaires. What else do you want? Why can't you just leave me alone? I should be coming after you."

Zhong Yi chuckled and said, "Yeah sure, you can think that way. We want to make fun of you because it's fun. I'm filming a movie in Xia City right now, so you can come work the day after tomorrow. Jian Fei will contact you. If you don't show up, I think your college will soon find out that you're Xu Zhengxuan's daughter. I doubt you'll be able to continue studying then."
