A Star Reborn: The Queen's Return - Chapter 1352
Chapter 1352: Gu Jinxiu Being Cold-Shouldered
During the crew’s rest period, Xia Yingluo was playing with her mobile phone when her eyes suddenly widened. She looked at the news report like she had seen a ghost and threw her mobile phone out.
Tan Ying, who was walking towards her, caught it.
“They’re too much!” Xia Yingluo held out a fair finger and pointed at the mobile phone. She was so angry her words were incoherent. “They actually reported that I was sticking to Wei Lingnan! Am I like that! I was obviously forced into the kiss! I curse all his eighteen generations of ancestors!”
Tan Ying rubbed his forehead silently. It seemed like Ms. Xia was really irritated this time.
Although Xia Yingluo usually looked like a lady, she had mixed with her father and brother in the underground world since she was a child. What kind of people has she not been in contact with? If she was provoked, the vocabulary she could use to curse them was indeed enriching and could go on for three days and nights. At this time, all the curse words that could be thought of were being used to scold Wei Lingnan. She cursed all his relatives and future generations and completely forgot that she was also scolding herself.
Tan Ying waited patiently beside her, and waved away a few staff members who were watching the bustle—
When else have those staff members seen such an abusive superstar? They were beyond stunned.
After a long time, Xia Yingluo was tired of scolding. She took a breath and drank water.
Tan Ying calmly returned her mobile phone. “Do your makeup, someone is looking for you outside.”
“Who? I won’t see whoever it is!” Xia Yingluo was still angry.
“Gu Jinxiu.”
Xia Yingluo raised her head and gritted her teeth. “Why is she here?”
“How would I know?” Tan Ying was particularly irresponsible. “She’s wearing the latest beaded embroidered jersey, a colored diamond necklace, and carrying an Hermès custom-made bag from the Paris Spring Fashion Week. She probably put on all the most expensive and showy items in her family to provoke you.”
Regardless of what she was here for, a beautiful woman just couldn’t tolerate the provocation of others.
Especially from a love rival.
Xia Yingluo looked down at herself. She had just finished her shoot and was wearing an old, ugly sweater, and the mud on her hands and feet had not been cleaned up. Necklace? No, bag? No, the most valuable thing on her whole body was the mobile phone in her hand, and there was even a stupid long-eared rabbit pasted on it. “Tell her I’m not seeing her!” Xia Yingluo was aggressive. Gu Jinxiu was here dressed up to the nines and she didn’t want to go out and be crushed by her like that. It would be even worse if she had also brought a reporter over and took a few photos of comparison to spread around.
Tan Ying shrugged and didn’t care if she saw her. Anyway, he could think with his knees what Gu Jinxiu was here for.
He turned around and was about to send someone back to Gu Jinxiu.
“Wait!” Xia Yingluo suddenly called him. “Let her wait.”
Tan Ying’s footsteps stopped and he gave her an admiring and satirical smile. “You didn’t learn the performing skills from your mom, but you really inherited her temperament.” It was such a subtle, marvelous move to make her wait. She could wait for a minute, or an hour, god knew how long? Many people always gave small characters the cold shoulder like that. If Gu Jinxiu really waited for her, it was clear that she was a class lower than Xia Yingluo.
This move was simply an effortless victory.
Xia Yingluo was unhappy and said as she walked to the dressing room. “Uncle Tan, you’re too biased. How did I not learn my mom’s skills? I’m so good at singing.”
Tan Ying smiled. “Your mother is the Phoenix.”
Those five words killed Xia Yingluo off.
Xia Yingluo looked up to the sky without saying a word. Fine, although she sang well, she was indeed inferior to her dear mother. Who told her mother to be the Phoenix? She naturally came with a bonus…
The darling of the planet was just different.
She suddenly thought that if she carefully used the resonance frequency of the Skatana Planet and added it to her singing, would it have a different effect? Maybe it was a very different song from the Nirvana Phoenix, but it would also very intoxicating.
With this in mind, she walked into the dressing room.
While simulating the feasibility of singing in her heart, she casually changed her clothes and put on makeup.
She forgot about time, the day darkened and the night clouds slowly spread on the horizon. Tan Ying finally couldn’t stand it and knocked on her door. “Miss, let’s go if you’re done changing. Even if you’re going to leave Gu Jinxiu hanging, don’t leave me hanging. I have something to do later.”
Xia Yingluo walked out of the dressing room, only to find that the crew had begun to leave.
She asked Tan Ying, “Is Gu Jinxiu gone?”
“No, she’s still waiting for you.” Tan Ying gloated. “Those who agitate us Skyart people won’t have a good ending. The staff didn’t even move a stool for her, so she stood in the wind and waited. She’s impressive for standing for so long, many people passed by and even pointed fingers at her.”
Xia Yingluo laughed and felt her anger dissipating.
She thought back to how Tan Ying had described Gu Jinxiu as wearing a flowery show. It was definitely eye-catching and was able to turn the heads of many people.
After hearing that she was standing in the wind, Xia Yingluo was also lazy to go out. She returned to the dressing room again. “Let her in.”
She gestured like a queen summoning her subject.
Tan Ying glanced at her again with a little bit of admiration and irony. No wonder they said that vile people and women were difficult to raise, and they would stare in hatred and take revenge if offended. However, this wasn’t his business. He walked out leisurely and got people to call Gu Jinxiu over.
Gu Jinxiu was boiling in rage.
She came to the studio to find Xia Yingluo. She thought she could make a compromise with her, but she didn’t expect her to have given her the cold shoulder. She had waited the entire afternoon, three hours, and Xia Yingluo didn’t even appear! Nobody even offered a sip of water to her!
She wanted to turn away in anger but found that she couldn’t do it at all.
In this love war, she was very clear that she was the weakest one—Wei Lingnan looked at her with no affection, only responsibility. In this regard, as a woman, she was very sensitive. And that man’s look at Xia Yingluo was a mix of love, reluctance, pain, and hopelessness.
This was particularly evident in the recent scandal photos.
She wasn’t reconciled.
She was too unwilling to watch Wei Lingnan go over to Xia Yingluo.
Therefore, she had to come here and negotiate with Xia Yingluo. The dressing room was very quiet. When she walked in, she saw that Xia Yingluo was drinking a cup of tea casually. The white teacup gently swirled between her equally white fingers, and a ray of light outside the window made her look like jade.
Some women were moving even if they looked casual.
Gu Jinxiu was jealous but realized that now was not the time. She clutched her custom-made bag and cleared her throat. “Ms. Xia.”
Xia Yingluo looked up at her. “I don’t want to see you. Tell me what you want quickly.”
A very impolite order.
Gu Jinxiu was also a young lady with pride and honor. Today, she had been humiliated again and again and was faintly angry. “Ms. Xia, do you think I really wanted to see you? We agreed that if I persuade Nan not to cause trouble for you, you will no longer pester Nan. But now? I did what I promised, but did you do what you promised?”
