Chapter 49: Bewitching

Jiang Lu limped to her rest tent. She was extremely angry!

An assistant hugged the ice pack and wanted to help her apply cold compress on her swollen ankle. However, Jiang Lu waved her hand and knocked it off. She felt a faint pain in her affected area and frowned as she said in dissatisfaction, “Idiot! You’re hurting me! You can’t do anything right. Get out and stop loitering in front of me. It’s annoying!”

Jiang Lu used some medicine to relieve the pain. The assistant picked up the ice pack and did not dare make a sound.

Jiang Lu narrowed her eyes. She could not do anything to Lu Mian, so she might as well think of a way to kick Yu Wan out of the production team!

Yu Wan was a timid person. As long as something happened to her, it would prove that Jiang Zhi was not capable of bringing out a newbie!

What of Star Glory? What of its sole manager?

She wanted to prove that Jiang Zhi would not be able to do anything after the divorce!

Jiang Lu narrowed her eyes and looked at her assistant. She said in a slightly friendly manner, “Don’t pick it up. Have you heard anything new in the crew recently? Anything about Jiang Zhi or Yu Wan is fine.”

The gossip in the crew spread between the assistants and the staff.

“The new actress in the crew, Yin Yue, seems to have some background, but she had a fight with Jiang Zhi…”

The little assistant recalled Jiang Lu fiddling with her nails and thought of some ideas. She instructed the little assistant to sneak into the makeup room of the extras, to deliberately cut off a piece Yin Yue’s costume, and leave a “Star glory” staff pass nearby to wait for the show to begin!

..

“Jiang Zhi! Come out!”

“If you have the ability to reason with me face to face, what’s the point of doing something behind my back?!”

Yin Yue threw the tattered costume in front of Jiang Zhi. She was so angry that her head was about to burst out with white smoke. She had already been reduced to a minor role, and even so, Jiang Zhi was still unwilling to let her go!

How could she continue to act with a torn wardrobe?

Jiang Zhi looked at her angry appearance and glanced at the clothes on the ground. She said in confusion, “Even if you want to point fingers at me, you have to have evidence.”

Yin Yue seemed to have guessed that she would say that. She threw the pass in front of her and asked, “How’s this?”

Jiang Zhi raised her eyes and stared at Jiang Lu’s tent.

The production team had made such a big commotion, but she had not even come out to take a look. It was really abnormal!

Jiang Zhi bent down and picked up the pass. Her fingers rubbed the stamp and left a mark. She raised it in front of Yin Yue and said, “If you want such a simple imitation, I can make countless copies and throw them into your room. Use your brain a little.”

“If I sent someone to do it, how could I leave such direct evidence for you!?”

“Don’t always let others use you.”

Jiang Zhi said lightly. Director Zheng heard the news and rushed over to help her out.

He looked at Yin Yue and said, “We won’t be filming your scenes today. I’ll ask the costume team to prepare two more sets of clothes for you. Who knows who might have left this pass behind. We’re all amiable, so let’s just forget about it!

“Miss Jiang, I still want to discuss the new script with you. Let’s go over there and talk?”

Director Zheng took Jiang Zhi away, leaving Yin Yue standing on the spot, looking absolutely disheveled!

She kicked the costume on the ground angrily, but Jiang Lu had appeared beside her at some point, pretending to be concerned.

“Are you okay? My sister’s position in the crew is very high. The director and the crew all listen to sister. You can’t beat her.”

Jiang Lu picked up the clothes and dusted them off. Looking at Yin Yue’s vigilant eyes, she shrugged and explained, “I’m not here to help Jiang Zhi bully you. On the contrary, I sympathize with you. My sister… Won’t show my any mercy! Look, my foot injury was caused by her!”

Yin Yue looked at her ankle and slightly let down her guard.

Seeing her relaxed attitude, Jiang Lu held her hand intimately and moved closer to Yin Yue like a devil whispering, bewitching her.

“In the end, it’s because our status isn’t important enough that the director looks down on us. If Yu Wan’s clothes were damaged, Director Zheng will definitely investigate it to the end and appease her! If Yu Wan isn’t on set, with your experience, experience, and acting skills, the third female lead will definitely be yours.”

Jiang Lu saw the fluctuations in Yin Yue’s eyes and continued to add, “You used to be an artist of Star Glory. If anything happened to Yu Wan, Director Zheng would definitely choose you as a substitute. I owe you this much!”

“If you hadn’t left Star Glory, this role would have been yours, to begin with! Wouldn’t it?”

Jiang Lu was good at reading people’s minds and every word she said made Yin Yue inwardly excited. She silently clutched her tattered costume and brewed some thoughts!
