216 Chapter 216. Do as You Please
Chen Tong understood that unless something happened that made her boss tired of her and the company abandoned her, she would be asking for trouble if she wanted to be independent.
But if that was the case, even if she went solo, she might still be able to stay in the industry if she was lucky. She would not be treated like she was now. And if she was unlucky and her boss thought of it, she could be banned just like that.
While enjoying the convenience of taking the shortcut, she had also blocked her way out.
So how could Chen Tong not be angry? Even jealous! Why was Ding Shan so lucky to have money and to open her studio? She was sitting here and mocking her so freely!
Chen Tong’s eyes turned red as she simultaneously felt sad for herself and hated Ding Shan.
Xiao Zhao was still angry and continued to add, “And miss Chen’s memory can’t be that bad, right? Our sister Shan had just joined the program, and a dress brand already came to sponsor her. Your eyes were sharp. Miss Chen might have a lot of endorsements, but she’s always wanted to exchange dresses with our sister Shan. Obviously, endorsements and sponsorships are not about the number of endorsements, but the value of the sponsorship.”
Chen Tong was utterly at a disadvantage. She was so embarrassed by Ding Shan and Xiao Zhao’s words that she couldn’t even show her face. Initially, she just wanted to walk around Ding Shan’s place, show off a little, and inquire about Ding Shan’s situation.
She did not expect that she would have a bad start. As soon as she reached the door, she could vaguely hear Ding Shan’s voice. However, the sound insulation of the door was not inadequate, and Chen Tong only heard Wen Xiu’s name. She said something about prevention before a disaster happened. Xiao Zhao opened the door just as she was about to get closer.
After that, she was repeatedly mocked by Ding Shan and her sharp-tongued assistant. Every word was directed at Chen Tong’s sore spot, and Chen Tong almost couldn’t help but cry.
But how could Chen Tong allow herself to be so embarrassed?
She gritted her teeth and pretended to be nonchalant. She continued to act coquettishly toward Ding Shan. “You’re right, sister Shan. Everyone knows that you’re beautiful. You don’t need so many external things to be radiant. Also, sister Shan doesn’t seem to care about these external things. Then, let me have your room. I’m not as natural as you, sister Shan. I can only bring more things to dress myself up.”
Chen Tong was able to get to where she was today at such a young age. It wasn’t just that she was stupid enough to lose her temper and offend people. It was all a bad habit that she developed after receiving protection.
Before this, she was intelligent and good at showing weakness and analyzing people’s thoughts. She had a little trickery: she knew how to use her own advantages to quickly stand on the weak side and raise the other party up high. In the end, she unwillingly falls into her trap for the sake of her face.
To put it bluntly, it was moral kidnapping.
But she had forgotten that Ding Shan didn’t like to be threatened by others. After her rebirth, she became even more rebellious and free-spirited.
It was not going to work in front of Ding Shan.
Ding Shan’s expression didn’t change as she asked matter-of-factly, “I don’t care about worldly possessions. Then what’s the point of being a star? Wouldn’t it be easier to go to the mountain and become a Daoist nun? Miss Chen, you’ve misjudged me. I’m the one who loves pleasure the most, and I’m also very eager to win. If I participate in the competition, I’ll believe in winning. Miss Chen, you have to be careful.”
She stood up and stretched before continuing, “As for the room, I am fine with it, but I can not disappoint President Yin’s good intentions. He specially arranged a room for me, and I can only accept it. I’m also tired, so I’ll go back to the bedroom to catch up on my sleep. Miss Chen, please help yourself.”
After that, Ding Shan ignored Chen Tong and opened the bedroom door on the side.
As the bedroom door closed with a “click,” Chen Tong’s face was hideous.
Every time, Ding Shan would use the method of ‘lifting a thousand catties with little effort,’ using an attitude of disdain to lower herself to her level, ignoring her, mocking her; this was even more unbearable than scolding her in her face or hitting her!
Xiao Zhao chuckled at the side. When dealing with people like Chen Tong, it was useless to use force. She would only be more unreasonable than you and make a scene. It would be better to play dumb and let her ask to be snubbed, preventing her from complaining and acting pitiful.
There was nothing wrong with sister Shan’s words, but her attitude was enough to make Chen Tong feel uncomfortable for a long time.
