Capítulo 613: 391 Mighty: Confronted, scolded, and even resorted to hitting! (2 more updates)
“Feng Que” filming set
You Congrong had always been overbearing on the set, often causing trouble for the crew members. This was not the first time she had clashed with Ruan Mengxi, who usually stepped back, but this time, facing her baseless provocation, Ruan Mengxi simply raised her hand to unbutton her collar, a scornful smile tugging at the corner of her lips.
“…you think you’re fit to mediate?”
She was accustomed to bossing people around and was holding back her frustrations, taking it all out on Ruan Mengxi.
“You and Tang Wan are indeed friends, both dirty, one a plagiarist, and the other riding on relationships.”
“Everyone knows that your position as Qi Zeyan’s assistant is all thanks to Tang Wan’s influence. Otherwise, with your capabilities, do you think you could have climbed so high?”
Qi Zeyan’s sudden personnel change would surely stir much discussion. Tang Wan had now married Jiang Jinsang, and people in the crew knew she was Tang Wan’s close friend; they seemed to have figured out some reasons.
Ruan Mengxi smiled coldly.
“What are you laughing at!”
You Congrong was like a ticking time bomb, ready to explode with the slightest provocation, interpreting too much from even a mere glance from others. The contempt in Ruan Mengxi’s eyes…
“I just never thought some people could have the audacity.”
“You…” You Congrong had often troubled Ruan Mengxi before, and Ruan Mengxi always just smiled, never daring to confront her. And now, suddenly calling her shameless? You Congrong was stunned.
“Even if I became the boss’s assistant because of Wanwan, what of it?”
“Are you any cleaner than me?”
“How you got stuffed into this drama, shall I tell everyone? As someone riding on relationships, I am much cleaner than you. At the very least, I would not serve old men for resources.”
“Ha—” Some people couldn’t help but laugh aloud.
Which drama doesn’t have someone pushed into it through connections? You Congrong really had been forced in, but the character she played, domineering and overbearing, matched her personality well, and the audition went fairly okay, so the director agreed.
The entertainment industry was never a clean place; some dirty activities just hadn’t been exposed yet.
“Ruan Mengxi?” You Congrong’s pupils shrank, clearly not expecting her to talk back .
“Just now when Wanwan was here, why didn’t you rush at her, bully the makeup artist, or come humiliate me? Picking on the weak and fearing the strong, looking for comfort from us?”
“I’m fully aware that there are shortcomings in my ability since it’s my first time working on a film crew. I accept your criticism…”
“Just because I call you ‘sister’ doesn’t mean you can point fingers and curse at me!”
“Without fans, no sponsors, no backers, or…”
Ruan Mengxi walked over, swiftly raised her hand and knocked off her hair accessory, which was fixed with a hairpin. Her movements were quick, pulling it down, tugging at her hair, and breaking strands, causing You Congrong to cry out in pain, reaching to protect the hairpiece.

But Ruan Mengxi’s force was too strong, pulling it down in one go.
Everyone around gasped.
These things were hard to remove even under normal circumstances, let alone being yanked off violently—it was like ripping her scalp off.
“Or let’s say, without these fancy decorations, you’re nothing!”
You Congrong’s scalp was numb with pain, and the next second, the entire hairpiece was slapped onto her face…
The crew was dumbfounded.
Tang Wan had left, and Ruan Mengxi had exploded…
Even fiercer than her, not even a few words in and she had already resorted to physical action!
“Ruan Mengxi!” No female artist doesn’t care about her image. She would still have to face Qi Zeyan later, and one could imagine how messy her hair looked now. You Congrong trembled, touching her hair, glaring at Ruan Mengxi…
Her expression was ferocious, as if she wanted to devour her alive.
Ruan Mengxi flicked her hand, “I’m like a dog by Qi Zeyan’s side, to describe people like you as ‘dogs’ would be an insult to them.”
“But I’ve always been aware of my own deficiencies, so I strive to learn and work earnestly. I know what I am, and I hope you can see that too…”
“People tolerate you because they are patient, don’t get too full of yourself.”
You Congrong’s scalp was throbbing with pain, “I’m going to tell Mr. Qi just how you treated me!”
“Go ahead! Since I did it today, I’m not afraid of him knowing. If he protects you, I’ll throw my resignation right in his face…”
“Leaving Qi Corporation, I can still support myself! But you can’t.”
