Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Accidentally Captured Your Video of Mandarins Frolicking in the Water
Ye Xinyu clutched her hair roots, cursing while also tugging fiercely at Ou Linlin’s long hair.
“Who stole your stuff? Ou Linlin, why don’t you mention you’ve been toying around to the point your framework is almost falling apart, yet you still only land the role of the wicked second female lead! Look at me, I can easily secure the position of the leading lady. Ou Linlin, let me tell you, this is fate. You and Ye Shu are both of lowly fate like cheap bones!”
“Ye Xinyu, shut your mouth! How dare you, a cheap piece like you, even mention Ye Shu? If it wasn’t for Ye Shu’s support back then, would you be where you are today? You’re not even grateful, and you steal Ye Shu’s man. Do you dare rip out your heart to let everyone see if it’s black?”
Upon hearing Ye Xinyu mention Ye Shu, Ou Linlin immediately became infuriated, accidentally tripping over Ye Xinyu’s ankle.
Ye Xinyu lost her balance, falling backwards.
The hand gripping Ou Linlin’s long hair instinctively pulled harder, and Ou Linlin fell too.
Falling right on top of Ye Xinyu.
The scene was set next to a rockery in the Imperial Garden of the Forbidden City.
Ye Xinyu’s back was pressed against the rockery stones, the sharp edges immediately cutting her back.
Blood seeped through her translucent costume.
Ye Xinyu screamed in pain, shocking the crew members who were enjoying the spectacle.
They hurriedly came forward to separate the two.
Mi Taotao, Ye Xinyu’s assistant, turned pale with shock.
While rushing to support Ye Xinyu, she shouted, “Call an ambulance, quick!”
“What ambulance? Call the police! I’m going to sue Ou Linlin for intentional injury. I want her to rot in jail!” Ye Xinyu, holding her waist and gasping in pain, still held an unyielding demeanor as she pushed toward Ou Linlin.
Ye Shu finally squeezed next to Ou Linlin, barely touching her arm when someone pushed him away.
Unbalanced, Ye Shu instinctively grabbed Ye Xinyu’s hand to steady himself.
His other hand clamped on Ye Xinyu’s shoulder.
Having practiced Taekwondo during his school years and frequently lifting heavy objects as Ou Linlin’s assistant over the past six months, he had considerable strength.
He deliberately used significant force on Ye Xinyu’s shoulder.
Ye Xinyu winced in pain, unable to resist screaming, “Let go! Ou Linlin, make your dog unhand me, or I’ll sue her too!”
“Ye Xinyu, are you sure you want to call the police? You might not be able to handle the consequences!” Ye Shu added more pressure to his grip, his smile cold and fearless.
Ye Shu’s demeanor made Ye Xinyu feel a hint of fear.
Ye Xinyu shifted uneasily, defiantly saying, “Ye Shu, don’t scare me! Haven’t you heard the saying that barking dogs don’t bite? You’re just a lost dog. If you’re capable, bite me!”
Her voice was very low, low enough that only the two of them could hear.
Ye Shu, not angered but amused, slightly shifted his finger on Ye Xinyu’s shoulder.
To onlookers, it seemed a trivial gesture, but Ye Xinyu knew Ye Shu was applying tremendous force, almost crushing her shoulder bone.
“Ye Xinyu, do you remember our engagement party? I accidentally recorded a video of you and Gu Zuocheng playing in the water like Mandarins.”
“So what? Who in Jin City doesn’t know I’m Gu Zuocheng’s fiancée?”
