Chapter 1307 - 1308: There’s Always Someone Who Ruins the Mood
Chapter 1307: Chapter 1308: There’s Always Someone Who Ruins the Mood
Jiang Chenyue herself liked Rong Yan and Little Baby, and upon beginning to suspect Rong Yan’s background, her gaze couldn’t help but show a bit more pity, making their conversation surprisingly lively with plenty of topics to discuss.
However, there’s always someone tactless who loves to spoil the mood.
"Hey, isn’t that what’s-her-name?"
A domineering voice abruptly intervened.
Jiang Chenyue seldom gets interrupted when she speaks; she and Rong Yan were chatting happily when suddenly someone rudely cut in, and her brows furrowed as she looked toward the woman by the corridor.
Clad in a bright crimson dress, she looked fine, but the frivolous air beneath her eyes betrayed her class.
Two lackeys seemed to follow at her side.
"Miss Yan Hong, do you know the people at this table?"
One was a middle-aged man in a suits uniform, with hardly any hair left on his head, his corpulent body prone to sweating, continuously wiping himself with a handkerchief. His appearance was unremarkable, but from his behavior, he seemed very wary of the domineering woman who interrupted the conversation, his words carrying a tone of obsequiousness.
Next to the middle-aged man stood a young girl with an innocent look, her eyes frequently darting towards their table, mostly focused on Rong Yan with eyes full of jealousy and hatred, yet she didn’t dare to show it too obviously, her timid demeanor actually making her even less likeable.
Jiang Chenyue raised her eyebrow, not recalling any notable figure called Yan Hong on Capital City’s list.
Before she could express her stance, the woman named Yan Hong sneered preemptively, covering her mouth, and mockingly taunted Rong Yan, "Can’t say I know her, just seen her once, but some people sure left a strong impression on me. Xia Xue, should I say I know her?"
Xia Xue?
Jiang Chenyue wasn’t one to usually remember names, but she had heard this name not long before, prompting her to take a second look.
The young girl suddenly named looked complexly towards Rong Yan, pursed her lips, and said resentfully, "The senior is a top-tier singer in the industry; what is she in comparison, worthy of the senior’s recognition!"
"Haha!" Yan Hong enjoyed the flattery and laughed uproariously, then looked down disdainfully at Rong Yan, "Your rank isn’t high, but you sure are bold. No matter how lesser you are compared to me, at least by hyping yourself you’ve reached nearly the second tier, while you are just an eighteenth-tier tiny star. It’d be so easy for her to deal with you. I remember she just took you down; aren’t you afraid of being taken down a second time?"
Xia Xue certainly didn’t want to recall the humiliation she suffered on the night of the AQ finals; she clenched her teeth and strained her face trying not to lose her composure, forcing herself to say, "I’m just stating the truth. If she doesn’t like hearing it, she doesn’t have to listen! I’m not afraid of her retaliation. So what if she’s almost a second-tier, you’re still a top-tier! I’m not scared of her!"
Being a top-tier sounds so grand, at least stepping on a nearly second-tier should be no issue.
Yan Hong’s eyes flickered, covering her mouth while laughing charmingly, but the smile did not reach her eyes—she was hiding deep jealousy. As if carelessly she said, "She’s different. She might be nearly a second-tier, but she has not just one sugar daddy behind her. I dare not provoke her. Didn’t you see Rong Weiwei, Fu Ya, and even Jiang Xinyue got handled by her? I hear Jiang Xinyue even fell into her hands once. I’m just a top-tier, while Jiang Xinyue is the magnificent Magnolia-winning Actress, almost a goddess in our circle. Even she got her face slapped. Unmessable, unmessable. I definitely cannot mess with her~"
