Chapter 528 Immoral
After Nan Xing left, Tang Jing went to look for Ouyang Qing at once. At that moment, Ouyang Qing was drinking as
she was feeling frustrated.
When she saw Tang Jing, it was as if her lifesaver had arrived. “How did it go?” Tang Jing was secretly gloating at the
other woman’s state of anxiety.
“While we were chatting, he suddenly received a call and left right after that. The person who called seemed to be
a woman,” Tang Jing replied seriously.
“A woman?”
“Yup. Nan Xing is an heir of the Nan family, after all. Given his good looks and wealth, I’m sure there are plenty of
women going after him, so it’s pretty normal that there are women calling him.”
As she spoke, Tang Jing carefully observed Ouyang Qing’s expression and noticed that other than frustration, there
was no sign of jealousy on the other woman’s face.
That meant that Ouyang Qing was only interested in Nan Chen, and Nan Xing was just a backup.
“In other words, nothing came out of your discussion?” Ouyang Qing’s temper sparked.
“I tried to sound him out a little. I think Nan Xing is quite fond of you.”
Hearing that, Ouyang Qing felt her confidence grow. “I don’t need you to tell me that. I’ve known it all along that he
likes me. He has even confessed to me before.”
Tang Jing sneered silently, wondering where the woman got her confidence from.
“So you should just meet him and have a good chat. Who knows, the two of you might make a great pair.”
Ouyang Qing took a deep breath and replied, “I want him to publicly declare his intention to pursue me. Only then
will I stop feeling awkward about what had happened previously and gain my reputation back.”
“Yup, I think he should do that too,” Tang Jing agreed. “He should hold a press conference to state his intention to
woo you. That will show his sincerity toward you.”
“Do you think he’ll agree to that?”
“That’s why you need to be firm in your stance. The more assertive you are, the more he will give in to you. In the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfuture, you should take the lead and let him attend to your needs.”
“All right, I understand. Ask him out for me. I can’t be bothered to call him. If he agrees, he can buy me a meal
tomorrow, and I’ll consider accepting his apology. As long as I start dating Nan Xing, I would have completed my
dad’s task for me. If that’s the case, I wouldn’t have to go overseas anymore.”
As her words fell, Ouyang Qing was in a visibly good mood. Lifting her glass of wine, she took another sip.
“Is your dad forcing you to go abroad?” Tang Jing asked.
“Yeah. He thinks I’m an embarrassment and wants me to go overseas and lie low after all that has happened. I
didn’t want to go and insisted on staying. However, if I don’t settle the matter properly, it’s just a matter of days
before I have to leave. Haven’t I told you about it? Have you already forgotten? Did you even pay attention to my
words?” Ouyang Qing snarled.
For the past two days, Tang Jing had been focusing on thinking of a way to make use of that incident to her own
advantage. As such, she had indeed forgotten all about it.
“Of course I paid attention to what you told me. Don’t worry, I’ll try my best to help you settle it. I’m sure you won’t
need to go overseas.”
“Fine. Ask Nan Xing out for me then.”
“Sure, I’ll keep you updated, then.”
“All right. You should go first. Remember to keep everything we’ve discussed private. Don’t tell anyone about me,”
Ouyang Qing uttered before dismissing Tang Jing with a wave of a hand.
“Understood.”
Just when Tang Jing was about to step out of the door, Ouyang Qing stopped her. “Wait.”
“Is there anything else?”
“I just received news from the production team that the filming of the movie will continue. The male lead has also
arrived. It’s Huang Zichao.”
“Huang Zichao?” Tang Jing got a shock when she heard that.
“Yup. It’s unexpected, huh?”
“Very! Hasn’t Huang Zichao already shifted his focus to Hollywood? He even won the ‘Best Actor Award’ last year.
Why would he agree to take part in this film? Besides, this film tells the story of the female lead, and there aren’t
many scenes for the male lead. Why would he be willing to take it up?” Tang Jing wondered aloud.
“Even though he is an award-winning actor, acting is still his job. He can’t just survive on the award alone. With his
participation, the scenes for the male lead will definitely increase. I’m sure there’ll be some romantic scenes
between him and the female lead. If that b*tch, Ding Mi, gets to act alongside him, she’ll definitely gain a new bout
of popularity. That’s why you need to do everything in your power to prevent that situation from happening.
Otherwise, you’ll have no chance of surpassing her, ever,” Ouyang Qing said, fixing her gaze on Tang Jing.
“Who’s the one who hired Huang Zichao? Is it Nan Chen again?”
“Nope. It’s me and the other investors. These days, there has to be some sort of romantic element in any film
genre. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be popular among the youngsters. In order to prevent losses and make sure that the
movie will be a hit, we got him on board. As you know, Huang Zichao was voted as the second most attractive Asian
male star last year, just one rank behind Zheng Lunlun. With a gorgeous male lead like him, success will be
guaranteed for our film!” Ouyang Qing explained.
“But wouldn’t this benefit Ding Mi?” Tang Jing grew anxious upon hearing that.
“That’s why we can’t let that happen. If she’s the female lead, she’ll be able to act alongside Huang Zichao. But if
she’s not, there won’t be any benefits for her, right?” Ouyang Qing threw the question back.
“But she’s the current female lead!”
Hearing that, Ouyang Qing grew impatient and stood up. Pointing at Tang Jing, she scolded, “Why are you so dense?
That means your job is to kick her out of the production team! Of course, that wouldn’t be easy with Nan Chen
protecting her. However, her weakness is her two children. If something happens to her kids, do you think she’ll still
be able to concentrate on acting?”
“What do you mean exactly?” Tang Jing was terrified at the woman’s suggestion.
“There are no hidden meanings behind my words. It’s only because of her children that she’s able to enjoy her
current status. Without them, she is simply nothing. Go ahead and deal with it. Remember to act discreetly and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdon’t leave any traces. As long as you get this matter settled, you’ll be the female lead. With the opportunity to act
alongside Huang Zichao, the ‘Best Actress Award’ will be yours in no time! This is a golden opportunity for you.
Don’t let it slip by.”
Tang Jing felt a prickle of fear.
She had met those two kids previously and knew how adorable and good-looking they were.
She could easily imagine how precious they were to the Nan family.
The woman could hardly believe that Ouyang Qing was that immoral to actually suggest hurting those two children.
Murder was a crime punishable by death. Besides, how could anyone bear to harm such adorable kids?
Tang Jing felt children should never be dragged into conflicts between adults.
Sensing Tang Jing’s apprehension, Ouyang Qing asked, “Are you scared? Or can you not bring yourself to do it?”
“I just don’t think there’s a need for that. It’s too cruel to lay our hands on kids. I don’t think I can do that,” Tang Jing
rejected.
“Ha! Why are you pretending to be a Samaritan in front of me? Sure then. You can just wait to get eliminated and
see that b*tch, Ding Mi, win the ‘Best Actress Award,” remarked Ouyang Qing, obviously raging.
“I—”
“What else do you have to say? I’m willing to support you because I believe in you. Without my help, you’re nothing!
If you want something that doesn’t belong to you, you have to be ruthless! Otherwise, you’ll just remain a loser for
the rest of your life! Tang Jing, let me tell you. Even if I don’t get to marry Nan Chen or invest in that film, I’m still
Ouyang Qing, heiress of the Ouyang family! However, if you don’t succeed, you’ll always remain at the bottom.
There are countless newbies joining the industry every day who are young and attractive. I’m sure you know that
the old is constantly replaced by the new, and you’ll be ousted in no time. Think carefully about this. You don’t really
have a choice.”
