Yan Wen inhaled deeply. With Xia's help, half the battle was already won.
"Actually Jiang Lingyun not only wants me to audition for her. She's probably planning to monopolize the company's acting resources with Bai Zhexuan's help. Clearly this isn't the first time, so we need to find evidence."-
Not waiting for Xia's reply, Yan Wen continued. "Also, she's pregnant and the child is Bai Zhexuan's."
Xia let out an angry huff. "They're really made for each other!"
Cheating was bad enough. Getting Yan Wen to stand-in as Jiang Lingyun was just shameless.
Yan Wen understood everything clearly now. She was not going to suffer alone after what they did to her. In fact she was going to get her revenge twofold.
A few hours later, lightly made-up and wearing both a face mask and a hat, Yan Wen showed up punctually at the hotel where the audition would take place.
As she entered the lobby, Jiang Lingyun's manager Hui walked up to greet her, loudly exclaiming, "Oh my, Lingyun, how did you get so ill? Hurry up and get ready. Don't let Director Chen wait too long!"
Who would have thought that while Jiang Lingyun's acting was so bad, her manager's was pretty good?
His words were entirely for the benefit of anyone listening. This way everyone would know that the woman in the mask and hat was Jiang Lingyun.
The good part was yet to come and Yan Wen was in no hurry to spoil the plot.
The moment the lift door closed, Hui shot a glance at Yan Wen and grumbled, "What time do you think it is? Do you think you're some sort of big shot, that you can just stroll in on the dot?"
His arrogant tone was the same as Jiang Lingyun's, treating her like a slave to be ordered around. If she had not been blinded by Bai Zhexuan's hypocrisy or if she had not retired behind the scenes but remained active, small fry like Hui would not even dare to look her in the eye, much less order her about.
Yan Wen looked down. In their eyes, her life was a joke.
