Chapter 249 - NEVER SATISFIED (1/2)

Song Lili was frustrated and angry. Since she had come back to the country and joined the entertainment industry, her life had been sailing on without a hitch. She had been the queen, and everyone wanted to curry favour with her.

Her confidence in acting freely had come from the support of Madam Zhong. ​​

In the beginning, the woman had done everything to make sure that she was comfortable, and no one was bullying her. It was no secret that the entertainment industry could be a dirty place with a lot of people demanding special favours in exchange for roles.

She could not escape the hidden rules without backing. She had been a model overseas for a long time, but the local industry was different. She did not have enough connections to guarantee her protection against the powerful people in the city.

Moreover, she was a little older, and the market was tough for her as a beginner.

However, with Chu Ling's help, she had not experienced any obstacles when starting as an actress, despite her inexperience and age. She had signed a good contract under a subsidiary of Zhong Industries and gotten a role in a movie almost right away.

Besides, the company had arranged for her to appear in some variety shows to increase face recognition.

She had planned on laying low for a while and then making her counterattack by pursuing Zhong Feng with dignity. As long as he understood who she had become since they last met, he would not ignore her for that girl.

She still remembered what Chu Ling had told her.

But how could she give up on him?

In the initial days after joining the industry, she did not do anything outrageous. Her attitude had been that of a dignified but humble lady. She had complied with the company's arrangements.

However, some of the management level people in the entertainment company had seen her with Chu Ling a little while later. They had also learned that Chu Ling was the one who had contacted the senior executives and asked her to sign on Song Lili.

Even though Chu Ling no longer thought of her as a potential daughter-in-law, she treated her well for the sake of old feelings. When they met, she would ask about her progress and even invite her for coffee.

After that incident, some misunderstandings had occurred, and everyone ȧssumed that she was the future daughter-in-law of the Zhong family.
