Seeing that Chi Yaoxi was silent, Mo Yuzhen assumed that Chi Yaoxi was starting to worry about the financial backer behind her. Her tone returned to its usual arrogant state. “Miss Chi Yaoxi, you’re already past your prime, so you can only be my supporting actress this time. You’d better see the truth. Not everyone can act as the female lead straight away.”

Her acting skills were not good, yet she still dared to speak so firmly. Chi Yaoxi glanced at her disdainfully. Chi Yaoxi understood Mo Yuzhen’s character. After thinking a few times, she came up with an idea.

She deliberately lowered her head and pretended to be talking to herself to raise the topic. “For a normal actress to directly become the female lead, she really does have a backer.”

After seeing Chi Yaoxi’s appearance, Mo Yuzhen thought that she was suppressed by her own aura. She looked at Chi Yaoxi with a mocking smile and continued, “To tell you the truth, the backer I found is definitely more powerful than yours!”

As expected, this stupid woman fell for it. Chi Yaoxi pretended to look envious and deliberately continued to ask, “Could it be that you have a powerful and influential financial backer?”

Mo Yuzhen was so pleased with herself that she immediately nodded and admitted, “That’s right, so Chi Yaoxi, don’t worry. There’s no way you could fight with me!”

After hearing this, Chi Yaoxi calmly took out her phone from her pocket and pressed the key. With a confident smile on her face, she waved at Mo Yuzhen and said, “OK.”

What? Mo Yu Zhen instantly felt that something was amiss. She was shocked and frightened, her eyes widening in disbelief. When did Chi Yaoxi switch on her phone? Did she record everything she said just now? Oh no, oh no…

“How dare you record this? You’re playing dirty tricks?”

“This is called giving others a taste of their own medicine. Isn’t this your usual trick? In the future, if you dare to deliberately cause trouble again, these recordings will be posted on various media websites. At that time, not only will you become famous, but you will also become so popular that you’ll become infamous. Do you believe me?” Chi Yaoxi raised her phone and warned Mo Yuzhen in the manner of a victor.

Mo Yuzhen was dumbfounded. What else could she do with such a huge weakness in her hands?

As expected of an actress, Mo Yuzhen instantly put on a fawning smile and began to put in a good word. “Yaoxi, it’s all my fault. I was too petty and shouldn’t have said that about you. I beg you, a great man will not remember the faults of a petty man. Please don’t put the recording on the Internet. In the future, I promise to be a good person and not find trouble with you, okay?”

Chi Yaoxi looked down on the current Mo Yuzhen the most. One moment, she was arrogant and domineering, the next moment, she was subservient. She likes bullying the weak and afraid of the strong and is useless. She glanced at her in disdain and left the dressing room without saying a word.

As she watched Chi Yaoxi walk out, Mo Yuzhen’s expression immediately changed. She was so angry that her face turned green. She gritted her teeth as she watched Chi Yaoxi leave. She swore fiercely in her heart. She actually dared to go against me. I must make Chi Yaoxi pay a painful price!

Mo Yuzhen took out her phone and made a call without hesitation. Instantly, her tone became gentle and pleasant. “President Chen, what are you busy with? Are you free tonight? Do you want to treat me to dinner?”

President Chen agreed readily.

Hearing his quick agreement, Mo Yu Zhen said sweetly, “Alright, President Chen is such a straightforward person. How about I accompany you for another night? Can you do something for me?”

This was the first time Mo Yuzhen was so glad that she knew President Chen, who was in both the black and white ways. When it came to important matters, such people were still useful.

This President Chen was already over 50 years old. He was fat and short, and he had a big belly. His small eyes were filled with evil intentions.

When her friend introduced Mo Yuzhen to President Chen for the first time, Mo Yuzhen did not take this old and ugly man seriously at all.

In the end, only the two of them were left to eat and drink. President Chen went straight to the point and suggested she accompany him for a night to fulfill one of her wishes. Only then did Mo Yu Zhen realize that she might have met a big shot.

Sure enough, Mo Yuzhen’s wish was fulfilled. She accompanied this old man for a night and let him enjoy himself to his heart’s content. Although the process was unpleasant, it gave her a chance to play the role of the female lead in a blockbuster movie.

This made Mo Yuzhen even more certain of her outlook on life. Handsome men? Feelings? They were all nonsense. The most important thing was to be useful.

When they returned to the hotel, Mo Yuzhen changed into a sleeveless, backless flowery dress. She then carefully put on some makeup in front of the mirror before picking up her handbag and taking a taxi to the clubhouse.

When Mo Yuzhen alighted from the car, she took note of her surroundings. It was still very early, and the surroundings of the clubhouse were very quiet. No one entered or left. She wore a large sun hat that covered most of her face. She got out of the car and hurried towards the elevator in the lobby.

At this moment, Chi Yaoxi happened to pass by this clubhouse in a car.
