“Jing Yun, I won’t believe that you have ever dated Gu Xie.” Lin Xiaojuan looked at her coldly. Even if she was terribly grossed out, she did not show it on her face. “Why would Gu Xie like someone like you with such a messed up personality? I won’t believe it. I won’t even believe the whole substitute thing either. We look nothing alike.”
Jing Yun chuckled as if she was superior. “Xiaojuan, you are always speaking for morals. Did you know how much I hated you when you were my manager back then? You wouldn’t allow me to do this and that. It was clearly a shortcut, yet you made me go the long way. Now that people have seen through you, you refused to back down. I know you too well. You know it yourself. You are of no match to Gu Xie.”
“Are you a good match then?”
It was as if Lin Xiaojuan had heard a big joke.
“Jing Yun, I have no interest in being calculative over something that has happened so many years ago. You know it better than anyone else on how you and Yang Po managed to hook up. Now that he is about to become the next mayor of City A, you have a strong pillar of support behind you. I cannot offend you. However, don’t forget that as an artiste manager, many things are within my control. I’m sure Yang Po doesn’t wish for any trouble either.”
Jing Yun’s face changed. Her heart was filled with spite.
“You… just can’t take it that I’m better than you!”
“In these past few years, you have been doing well, and you are already a Movie Diva. I had already looked past all the hatred and resentment we had in the past, and I avoid you at all costs in public. Don’t come here and provoke me to satisfy yourself. When you were beaten up by Qianshu on the ground then, it did not look good at all.” Lin Xiaojuan sneered.
Maybe the scene from years ago was too unforgettable.
Jing Yun frowned and clenched her fist.
“Jackals of the same lair. Other than violence, the two of you have nothing much left.”
“Better than you, two-faced big joke.” Lin Xiaojuan looked at her in despise, piercing through Jing Yun’s heart. They had such a similar face, yet their lives were so different. She was really displeased about that.
“What are you so happy about? No matter how much you hate me, you’re just my substitute. Do you think Gu Xie really loves you?” Jing Yun said arrogantly and turned around to leave.
Lin Xiaojuan took a deep breath and shut her eyes.
What a b*tch!
Jing Yun had always been number one on the list of women she hated.
Just thinking about her and Yang Po made Lin Xiaojuan feel really disgusted.
Gu Xie liked Jing Yun before?
Then he must have been like her. Blind. The people that he once loved are a mess.
She did not wish to be anyone’s substitute!
The auction started steadily.
The fashion editor helped Lin Xiaojuan to auction the bracelet for 500,000. The value of the bracelet was only 50,000, but they earned ten times the price. As Jing Yun had worn it before, many people wanted it. As a result, the price of it skyrocketed.
Anyway, this was meant for charity, so nobody really bothered about all that money.
“I’m donating all this money by the name of Tong Hua. I’ll pay afterward.”
“Great!” The fashion editor was very easygoing, and she did not ask further about the gossip between Jing Yun and Lin Xiaojuan.
The last object that was being auctioned on the charity event was the necklace that Tong Hua had put up.
The female stars fought over one another to bid for it. In the end, it went up to 2,500,000. Tong Hua looked confused. “250? What an auspicious number.”
Lin Xiaojuan laughed. “Be appreciative. The raw cost of this bracelet is not even 50,000.”
“Mommy’s designs are expensive.”
If it were not for the fact that this necklace was from years ago and it did not get the logo they applied for, it would not only be worth this amount.
“Oh right, I almost forgot.” Lin Xiaojuan looked at the bracelet that she got. Jing Yun wanted to cut off ties with them so badly. Back then, Qianshu gifted this bracelet to her, and she had put it up for auction now. This bracelet was something that Shen Qianshu had designed so that they each would get one.
Jing Yun, Qianshu, and her. They each had one of the bracelets.
