Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 165 Desperate



———-

Ning Mei was angry. Despite all the makeup on her face, one can see the color of her skin turning red. She spoke through her clenched teeth.

"Senior Han, how can you do this to me? I always looked up to you, how can you take something that belongs to me?"

Yue Ling arch a brow at Ning Mei. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Not saying a word, she just shook her head.

Ning Mei: "What is so good about you that you get to do this shoot and not me? Why?"

Wu Jing heard Ning Mei's words and he wanted to puke blood. He stare at the little rookie model like she was an idiot.

Even David was speechless. Before the shoot, he did tell Director Yuen from CNJ Entertainment about Beauty's shoot. However, he didn't think they'd send a rookie.

"Why, you asked? Well, that's easy." Yue Ling spoke calmly as she takes a step forward to Ning Mei. Looking at the small girl, she smiles, "I'm not desperate."

She made sure the word 'desperate' was stretched out for Ning Mei to hear. Which was the truth, because Yue Ling had never been desperate on anything in her life. In the modeling world, when she first started, she was also a rookie. A rookie, who no one cares about and didn't want her to model for them. Even so, she wasn't so desperate to sleep around and go begging just to have a shot at modeling.

She had worked hard to get her name out and become the supermodel she is today. It was her own strength that got her here. Taking steady steps, she stops in front of Ning Mei. Her bluish green eyes stayed lock on Ning Mei. Like a deep abyss, seeing right through one's soul.

Ning Mei couldn't help but take a gulp. She could even feel cold sweat forming on her forehead. How she wished she could have left when Chen Limei did.

Looking at how Ning Mei suddenly became a coward, Yue Ling's lip curl upwards. Slightly leaning forward, she whispers to Ning Mei.

"Walls have ears."

Not waiting for a response, Yue Ling turns around and walks towards the set. She had said her piece. If Ning Mei doesn't understand, then so be it. Yue Ling still has hundreds of ways to get the message clear.

Ning Mei was rooted to the ground. She could not believe her ears. Even if the words were short, the message was loud and clear. Ning Mei swallow her saliva. She looks at Yue Ling's tall and graceful

figure walk away. Her mouth open and closed wanting to say something, but her words were stuck at her throat.

'Does that mean Yue Ling knows about the drug incident? No... does she know that I'm trying to outrank her...?'

From the side, Wu Jing shook his head. He's known Yue Ling for a while now, and he knowls that she is not one to be messed with. Turning around, he wave his hand, "Miss Ning, if you don't mind, please leave."

David took one last look at Ning Mei. He also shakes his head. When he first saw Ning Mei when she walked in, she was very pretty and sweet. However, he never knew that the cover of the book would be so different from the pages. Quickly turning his head, he follows after Wu Jing and Yue Ling.

Dumbfounded and not knowing what to say, Ning Mei watched as the three figures walk towards the set. She clench her fists tightly and her eyes turn murderous and Yue Ling.

She swore inside, she will definitely get Yue Ling for humiliating her like this. Turning her head, she walks out of the studio.

"Ning Mei, what happened?"

The moment she stepped out, a woman's voice sounds from the side. Ning Mei looks in the direction of the woman. Her murderous aura strips off and her eyes turned watery.

"Manager Tang...."

Ning Mei let tears fall down her cheeks and runs to her manager. Her arms quickly wraps around the woman's waist.

"Wuuu. Tang Wei, I've been humiliated by that slut."

Tang Wei sighs at Ning Mei. She wraps her arms around the girl and soothe her back.

"Ning Mei, tell me what happened? You just went inside, how can you come back out already? And who humiliated you?"

Moving her head, Ning Mei looks at Tang Wei, she wipes her tears away. With a sad expression, she tells what happened.

—————

Outside in the streets of Imperial. A white Mercedes leisure cruised. In the back seat was Ning Mei and Tang Wei, while the assistant drove the car.

"How dare that Han Yue Ling treat you this way?! Isn't she your senior? The least she could have done is make way for you. She's not even a model anymore!"

Tang Wei was in rage. She's been Ning Mei's Manager for five years and she's seen all the hard work the model has put in. Not only that, even she as a manager has put everything she got.

She knows Han Yue Ling isn't someone easy to deal with, but how can she allow her model to be humiliated like this.

"Ning Mei, don't worry. I will call COO Lin and have him fix this. If he can't then we still have CEO Wang."

Hearing her managers words, Ning Mei pursed her lips. She knew exactly what her manager meant, but.... Ning Mei looks at Tang Wei.

"Tang Wei, you want to sleep with—"

"Of course not. I won't let you sleep with that old bastard Lin."

Tang Wei smiles warmly at Ning Mei. She holds Ning Mei hands and looks attentively at the model.

"I will. If it means getting you to the top, then I'd do anything."

Hearing this, Ning Mei's eyes turn watery and she embraces Tang Wei. Tears falling from her eyes.

"Tang Wei, I know you care about me the best! When I get to the top, I will definitely give you a big figure."

"Mm."

Tang Wei smiles faintly as she pats Ning Mei's head. Her eyes held thousands of emotions. She's been an A list manager for many models and actors. Ever since Han Yue Ling came in the picture, everything's been going downhills. Now she can't let Ning Mei fall behind too. Even if it meant using her body.

As Tang Wei was in her own thoughts, Ning Mei sneered evilly. She was lucky to have a stupid manager she can easily use. Even if her manager didn't get the job done, she could of done it herself. Ning Mei is already one of CNJ Entertainment's COO Lin's mistresses. However, since COO Lin is interested in Tang Wei, why not let the old man have a taste. Besides it will let Ning Mei know if her Manager is truly loyal or not.

Back inside Beauty's company, Yue Ling proceeded with her photoshoot. Her moves were natural and graceful. Everything was perfect and makes one want to keep watching.

From behind the camera, Wu Jing often glance at Yue Ling then onto the computer screen where the pictures transfer to from the camera. He couldn't help but be even more mesmerized by Han Yue Ling.

Whether it was the young woman from back then or the woman now, she was always captivating.

Straightening himself up, he put both his hands in his pockets and gaze at the beautiful model. His lip curl upwards into a soft smile. It was a smile that no one has ever seen before.

Like one of a man watching his first love from a distance.

However, that smile didn't last for long. As quickly as it came, it also disappeared.
