Chapter 394 - Forced By You All (2/2)
“If I don’t repay you this way, what other ways could I do it then?” Xu Xiyan put on a spurious smile and said in a half-joking tone, “Oh, are you saying that the way I’ve repaid them was wrong? Well, why don’t I beat you up too next time? Or how about I directly set fire to your house?”
“Xu Xiyan! You are simply unreasonable!”
Xu Xinrou’s heart tensed up tightly. She did not expect Xu Xiyan to have a violent mind, and she couldn’t believe that she was even willing to commit murder and arson.
“That’s right, I’m being unreasonable. The reason why I am who I am today was that I was forced by you all to become so!” Xu Xiyan crossed her arms and warned coldly, “Now, let’s be honest with each other. From now on, we’ll have nothing to do with each other. If you dare to come and harm me again, I’ll fight it out until we all perish together. Don’t even think about gaining anything good from this.”
Xu Xinrou saw a glint of absolute hatred in Xu Xiyan’s eyes and it was daunting.
She believed what Xu Xiyan had said. A demoralized person like her would do anything if pushed to desperation.
In order to keep up the pretense that they were on good terms, Xu Xinrou changed the topic and said, “Yanyan, you’re being too extreme! After all, you’re a member of the Xu family. How could we harm you? Just think about it, there are so many negative scandals about you. How many production crews are willing to hire you? The reason you were able to rejoin the “Red Sleeved Beauty” production was that I put in a good word for you with the director. Otherwise, do you think Director Huang would hire you again? Furthermore, Dad got two roles for you, and he did it for your own good so you will have a safer career in the entertainment circle. But in the end, you refused them. Don’t you think that you’re a fool?”
On the surface, Xu Xinrou’s words were quite touching to hear. She had made her words sound as if Xu Xiyan was really repaying kindness with ingrat.i.tude and was being ungrateful.
The truth was, this was all part of Xu Xinrou’s scheme.
She did not want Xu Xiyan to win the “Root of Evil” new lead actress poll because that show could win an award, thus she did not want her to partic.i.p.ate in it.
In order to stop Xu Xiyan, she had already spent some money and bribed someone to secretly tamper with the vote count of the first-place candidate. As long as the first-place candidate had a higher vote count than Xu Xiyan’s in the end, Xu Xiyan was destined to fall out.
Put in a good word for her in front of the director?
Heh… Xu Xiyan would never believe that Xu Xinrou was that kind hearted. As long as Xu Xinrou did not sabotage her, she would thank her ancestors for eighteen generations.
