The Beautiful Wife of the Whirlwind Marriage

Inside, Song Shuhai was wearing a long, purple dress that must have been from a major sponsor. She looked extremely gracious and elegant, highlighting her status.

Lin Che then carried her skirt and walked in. She walked one round before finding her seat which had a number on it. She quickly sat down and the company’s staff came over to pour water. She smiled and said thanks.

The company’s staff had a rather good impression of her and smiled politely at her.

Lin Che was sipping her water when she heard a small actress looking at her and calling out, “Lin Che, wow! Are we sitting at the same table?”

Lin Che almost spat out her water. She looked at the side and realized there were a few actors from her company. She was confused at how they could attend this annual meeting. One of the small actors named Xiao Qinglang smiled and said, “I just knew that Sister Lin Che would be at this year’s annual meeting. People like us don’t deserve to come but we still had to beg our agents to get the chance for us to come and see. Sister Lin Che, you’re very pretty up close.”

“Yes. You’re not only pretty but you have a specially elegant air about you.”

“Sister Lin Che, your roles are especially likable. I think you’ll be able to enter the frontlines tomorrow and become a big star.”

Lin Che hurriedly said, “No way! How can that be? I’m still far from it.”

“Sister Lin Che, you’re too modest,” someone at the side came over and the whole table began chatting enthusiastically.

Just then, a dark, tutting sound came from behind and suddenly interrupted the group of them.

“Hey, who’s that at the front? Aren’t you going to make way for Sister Xiaoyuan?”

They turned back to see Xin Xiaoyuan come in. She wore a long, white dress that was a completely different style from Song Shuhai. But as a major star for so many years, she also had an extraordinary aura. Without squinting, her eyes swept across the group of young ladies. She raised her head and continued walking forward.

Lin Che saw that the person who looked like Xin Xiaoyuan’s assistant seemed to be full of himself. Her seat just so happened to be blocking Xin Xiaoyuan’s way.

The surrounding actors who were just chatting there immediately shut up. They looked at Xin Xiaoyuan and quickly went to greet her as Sister Xiaoyuan.

Lin Che looked at her own dress and could only stand up too.

Xin Xiaoyuan looked over and asked her assistant in a boring manner, “Why is it so noisy here?”

The assistant scoffed beside her and said, “Some stray dogs and cats from who-knows-where.”

“Really? This annual meeting really invites everybody now.”

“Exactly. We shall talk to President Zhang later. We’d better not come here anymore.”

Xin Xiaoyuan didn’t even look but the assistant glanced at Lin Che before continuing their way. He turned his head away and snorted with his nose.

Lin Che turned back to glare at her. When they finally left, she said to Yu Minmin beside her, “I didn’t expect her to be so proud.”

Yu Minmin said, “She’s jealous of you and is acting like this on purpose for you to see.”

“What? What’s there to be jealous of me…”

“Jealous of your fame. Although her position is high, she didn’t have as much coverage as you this year.”

“Okay…” It was because there were a lot of gossips about her.

While Xin Xiaoyuan was walking, she turned her head to squint her eyes at Lin Che. She didn’t talk to anyone else and went straight to Song Shuhai’s side. She huffed and asked, “Did you see that newcomer when you came in?”

“Oh, you’re talking about that one?” The two of them never had a good relationship. They had been fighting for many years but as their positions were about the same, they still had some common topics.

Looking in that direction, Song Shuhai also huffed, “Lower your voice. She’s been rather viral recently. If someone hears, the fans will come after us. You won’t even know how you died if you offend someone else. Hmph.”

“Ah, to let such a little brat’s film be the death of me. All my years of hard work will go to waste. It’s not because of anything else either; it’s just that she looks too arrogant and I feel unjust for you. Like just now when I went over, she was being surrounded and praised by an entire group of people. I don’t know how she faces all this praising. She climbed up from gossip and she still had the cheek to get praised.”

Song Shuhai said, “Alright, you don’t have to be so angry too. She’s young after all. Times have changed and there’s no longer the tradition that we had of respecting our seniors. They don’t even know how to come over and greet us, seriously.” Song Shuhai fought with her for a whole lifetime, so she knew that Xin Xiaoyuan was trying to agitate her into doing something to Lin Che. She was not that stupid. Thus, she only laughed and avoided the topic.

Xin Xiaoyuan looked in Lin Che’s direction and got angry at the sight of her. It was just a little brat’s film and she was unknown the entire time. This year, she actually became famous out of a sudden.

Of course, the pinnacle was still far away, but it was inevitable.

Furthermore, when she looked at Lin Che’s inviting, petite face, it wasn’t amazing at first sight. However, she did have a unique aura. Her face was also very recognizable and people felt that she looked good.

She disliked that petite face when she saw it, so she wanted to persuade Song Shuhai into dealing with her.

The annual meeting soon began.

Lin Che and Yu Minmin went to make a toast to the president first.

Once they toasted, they went over to the main table. A few big shots were seated there and their expressions were cold when they saw Lin Che walking over.

Seeing Lin Che come over, some bosses were naturally still delighted. They patted Lin Che’s shoulder and said, “Your future is bright. Work well here with us. The future still belongs to you young people.”

Xin Xiaoyuan heard this and got angrier. Seeing Lin Che approach, she couldn’t resist sticking her leg out…

Lin Che almost fell. She stumbled two steps forward and then stopped.

She glared in Xin Xiaoyuan’s direction and angrily looked at this trouble maker.

She always thought that Xin Xiaoyuan was a respectable person because she was a senior, but she never thought that she would be so unreasonable.

Yu Minmin quickly pulled Lin Che backward and looked at Xin Xiaoyuan, “Sister Xiaoyuan, aren’t you stretching your leg a bit too far?”

Xin Xiaoyuan huffed and looked at her, “Sorry, I didn’t notice. It’s not like she fell. My leg has always been this long. President Zhang never said anything about it, so who are you to talk?”

The bosses have seen plenty of such tricks. They looked from the side and quickly tried to resolve the situation, “Alright, Xiaoyuan. Alright, Lin Che. We are all one family; there’s no need to quarrel. Xiaoyuan, she’s considered your junior sister.”

Xin Xiaoyuan saw that the bosses actually sided with Lin Che and didn’t help her. She faintly stood up, “President Zhang, what do you mean by this? That she’s my junior sister and I’m bullying her? Sorry, I really don’t know her and where she came from. She relied on gossips to climb up and that’s very shameful. A person who relied on her own abilities like me has nothing to teach this kind of person. Don’t call me a senior sister. I can’t afford to be one. Hmph, relying on a big star and stirring up some gossip with him from the start. I will never do such a shameless thing in my whole life.”

Xin Xiaoyuan scoffed and looked at Yu Minmin, “What kind of agent are you for bringing up artists like this? Unscrupulous people like you better not ruin the reputation of your company’s celebrities.”
