30 The White Lotus Card

'Bai Jiawei stood up from the couch and frowned

”He Xinyan!”'

'He Xinyan stopped in her tracks and she slowly turned around

”Yes dad. What happened?”'

'Bai Jiawei scoffed

”What happened? Is this how a younger sister should treat her older sister?”'

'He Xinyan furrowed her eyebrows together

”What do you mean?”'

'”You clearly knew that Yuyan was auditioning for a role and she worked very hard for it! So why would you steal the role from her?!”'

'He Xinyan scrunched her face up

unsure of how to react. These three people were actually stupid. . .'

'”Excuse me

” He Xinyan said sarcastically. ”I didn't steal her role

because it is only called stealing if it already belongs to someone else. Dad

it's an audition

meaning everyone is fighting for the same thing. It's not Li Yuyan's role

so I didn't steal it from her. I'm just more skilled and got the role.”'

'Li Yuyan's face turned red from anger when she heard He Xinyan say she was more skilled than her. Although she didn't want to

Li Yuyan had to admit that it was true. She wasn't as talented

but the role was still hers!'

'”Don't talk to your dad like that!” Li Huiran stepped forward. Bai Jiawei's expression also turned a little ugly after He Xinyan spoke.'

'”But still. Yuyan wanted the role

and you are her sister. So why should you fight for something she wants?”'

'He Xinyan almost wanted to scream

'I am your legit and original daughter

okay?!'

but she stopped herself.'

'Instead

she put on a pitiful expression. If Li Yuyan and Li Huiran can play the white lotus card

why couldn't she do the same?'

'”Dad

how can you be so partial? I am your daughter too and I also want the role. Why don't you ask Li Yuyan why she is fighting with her younger sister? I worked hard for the role too. . . And you know

ever since I joined the entertainment industry

I never got any opportunities. Sister Yuyan always got the opportunities

and today

I finally got something from my own hard work. . . And now she is accusing me of stealing it from her!” He Xinyan could look very cool and confident when she wanted to

but she could also pull off the pitiful and cute look.'

'At the moment

He Xinyan widened her eyes

making her look like a lost puppy. Her eyes were slightly red as she complained to her father

and she bit her lips shakily.'

'Li Huiran and Li Yuyan watched He Xinyan's act angrily

and Li Yuyan's body was shaking from fury by now. He Xinyan looked up at the mother and daughter with a sly smile that Bai Jiawei couldn't see

and it only made them more angry.'

'Bai Jiawei had calmed down a little and he was moved by his daughter's act. Plus

what He Xinyan was saying also made sense.'

'He turned to Li Yuyan and said

”Yuyan

your younger sister is right. You should be happy for your younger sister right now

yet you are acting all petty and jealous. That is not a good trait to have. If you want a role
