Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife
Chapter 385 No Different From Her (1)While her father was still in shock after finding out about her identity, Su Xiaofei was seated inside a conference room, discussing the possible collaboration project yet again with Bai Qingyue and Golden Star. It annoyed her that Mo Yuchen, after being so cold and indifferent towards her for so many years, would be interested to work with her now.
'What game is he trying to play this time?' She pondered. Mo Yuchen surely had a motive for forcing her to cooperate with his company, but what could it possibly be?
If he's still after Bluemedia, then Mo Yuchen must be dreaming if he thought that she would easily yield and hand over her mother's company to him, like she had foolishly done in her previous life. She wasn't the same love fool who would believe every word he uttered.
Now that she was also married to Lu Qingfeng, even if Mo Yuchen wanted to get back with her, it would be impossible as she couldn't even stand being in the same place as him. It wasn't like she wasn't aware of the advantages this collaboration could offer for Tang Liyan and Bluemedia, but she didn't trust Mo Yuchen or Bai Qingyue at all.

She had been so stupid to interpret his words differently. She thought that he really cared about her and her career, and was willing to share her burden by taking over the management of Bluemedia after her mother's passing. To think that she felt moved by his words… Su Xiaofei wanted to berate herself even more.
"President Su, the proposal Golden Star sent to you doesn't look so bad after all. You have to consider accepting it for Miss Tang's sake. You can't be trapped in the past and refuse to be civil with CEO Mo." One of the elders of Bluemedia told Su Xiaofei bluntly, while the others agreed with him.
Su Xiaofei remained silent while Tang Liyan, who was seated on her right, gave her a worried look. The actress was aware that the only reason her manager was hesitating to accept the offer was because of her. It had nothing to do with Su Xiaofei's prior engagement with Mo Yuchen.
Unfortunately, what happened during the photoshoot was kept a secret, not only from the public, but also from the higher ups of Bluemedia. Tang Liyan thought that they wouldn't have opinions like this towards President Su if they were aware of what happened.
"What about you, Miss Tang? Would you like to work with Miss Bai again?"
It was Fang Yi who questioned her this time. Fang Yi knew that Su Xiaofei didn't want to have anything to do with Mo Yuchen after the annulment of their engagement. The two hadn't parted ways amicably, and he had no doubt that Su Xiaofei wouldn't want to get involved with Mo Yuchen, especially now that she was a married woman.
Tang Liyan glanced at him, then to her manager, deciding that she needed to grow some backbone and not to bring any more trouble to Su Xiaofei.
"I have no qualms about working with her, as long as their camp is professional enough and would not cause us any trouble." She said with a straight face.New chapters are published on (f)ir(e).net
"If that's the case, then I see no problem why we shouldn't accept Golden Star's offer to produce a film with them." Fang Yi gave Su Xiaofei a knowing look, reminding her that she cannot avoid Mo Yuchen this time.

The rest of the team was confused as to why Su Xiaofei was insisting on it, but they simply assumed that she was only trying to protect the queen Bluemedia currently had. Bluemedia had yet to produce their own queen, and it might take some time to groom one of their talents to become one.
The meeting was adjourned, leaving Su Xiaofei in a foul mood, along with Tang Liyan and her bodyguards. Neither of the Zhang sisters dared to question what was going on and allowed Su Xiaofei to have a moment to herself while they resumed their respective tasks.
"President Su, it's really fine. I don't think they will try to pull the same scheme to sully my reputation." Tang Liyan said after a long silence between them.
"Miss Tang is being too kind. It still surprises me how you are able to stay this long in the industry, knowing how wretched it could be." Su Xiaofei said in return.
Tang Liyan fell silent, not having any idea how to explain it to her manager. So many times she had asked herself if it was still worth it to stay in the industry when it was filled with schemes and backstabbing greedy individuals.
"However, since you have decided, then I won't stop you." Su Xiaofei continued. "If anything happens during the production and filming, you have to give me a call at once. I won't let any of the people from Golden Star think that they can bully my people so easily without facing the consequences."
"I understand. I won't disappoint you this time, President Su." The actress yielded easily, knowing that she cannot ask Su Xiaofei for more. She didn't want her to be the reason why her manager would be heavily criticized by others.
"Don't worry, Miss Tang. I will make sure that the incident during the last photoshoot won't happen again. If anything, CEO Mo should know by now that I won't sit idly doing nothing if the same thing happens again. But it doesn't mean that you can be lenient and lower your guard. You have to understand that your reputation isn't the only one at stake, there's also the life of your companions."
