Chapter 190
She was still ranting and cursing downstairs when Older Brother Sun finally couldn't sit still upstairs anymore. He had initially intended to call security to remove this woman, but unexpectedly, her bodyguards were not to be trifled with. In an instant, the scene descended into chaos.
Until Older Brother Sun came down.
The moment the actress saw Older Brother Sun, she seemed to go mad, rushing towards him at lightning speed. "Sun Ming, you bastard, how dare you steal my resources! Do you have a death wish?!"
Older Brother Sun looked at the woman in front of him, who appeared completely unhinged, and rolled his eyes without hesitation. "I didn't steal anything from you. The director decided to change the role himself."
"Stop lying to me! Do you think I'm stupid? Don't pretend you don't know. It's all because of that Zhi Yao. She's having an affair with Pei Chiyao! She's just a woman who slept her way to the top!"
Zhi Yao: "???"
How could she be dragged into this while minding her own business?
Zhi Yao had absolutely no idea what this actress was talking about.
What stolen resources? What opportunities? She was completely in the dark!
"Tian Ruoyi, watch your mouth," Older Brother Sun said coldly. "If you want to know why you were replaced, go ask your agent. In any case, this has nothing to do with me or Zhi Yao."
Older Brother Sun's expression was ice-cold. Zhi Yao had never seen him like this before. In her impression, Older Brother Sun had always been smiling, the picture of a nice guy. She had never seen him so severe.
Tian Ruoyi was stunned by Older Brother Sun's words. Ask her agent?
Seeing her dazed expression, Older Brother Sun couldn't be bothered to deal with her anymore and turned to go back upstairs.
But unexpectedly...
Tian Ruoyi suddenly laughed. "Sun Ming, don't try to change the subject. You really think I don't know? It's all because that bastard Pei Chiyao used his connections to boost his little girlfriend Zhi Yao's career, stealing my opportunity and making me lose that role under Director Wang."
She sneered, "He's nothing but an unwanted child of the Pei Family. How dare he cross me?"
Tian Ruoyi had always been used to throwing her weight around in the entertainment industry. Her behavior clearly showed what kind of person she was. The reason she dared to act this way was entirely due to the Tian Family's influence.
The Tian Family and the Pei Family were of similar status. She knew Pei Chiyao's background fairly well.
Therefore, Tian Ruoyi was well aware of Pei Chiyao's family history and his treatment within the Pei Family.
"Hah! He's nothing but a bastard, an illegitimate child not recognized by the Pei Family ancestors. How dare he provoke me? It's laughable!"
She continued her scathing remarks, "I absolutely won't let this go. Pei Chiyao, you just wait. And you, Zhi Yao, you wait too! And you, Sun Ming! All of you, just you wait!"
She spat out these words venomously, completely disregarding Older Brother Sun's face, which had turned from ashen to nearly black with anger. She turned on her heel, ready to leave.
But... Just as she turned, taking a few haughty steps, suddenly an intense pain shot through her scalp. "Ahh—"
Tian Ruoyi couldn't help but cry out. She whirled around, fighting through the searing pain in her scalp, and looked behind her to see an unfamiliar face.
It was Zhi Yao.
The young woman was gripping Tian Ruoyi's hair tightly. She was using so much force that Tian Ruoyi felt as if a large chunk of her hair was about to be ripped out.
Burning with rage, she couldn't believe this woman dared to treat her like this. At the same time, she recognized Zhi Yao at a glance.
"You bitch! You shameless woman! Let go of me!!!"
She screamed in fury, but Zhi Yao wouldn't release her grip.
Tian Ruoyi suddenly looked up and met Zhi Yao's golden eyes. Those eyes, usually sparkling with life, were now devoid of their usual shimmer. Instead, they were filled with a chilling stillness that unsettled anyone who gazed into them.
Tian Ruoyi felt this unease acutely. She couldn't even bring herself to look into Zhi Yao's eyes. For some inexplicable reason, the moment she met Zhi Yao's gaze, an overwhelming sense of fear washed over her, terrifying her beyond measure.
Zhi Yao stared coldly at Tian Ruoyi and asked, "What did you say just now?"
Tian Ruoyi repeated blankly, "I said, let go of me."
"Not that!" Zhi Yao was extremely dissatisfied. "Before that... what did you say about Pei Chiyao!? Say it again."
Tian Ruoyi was confused, her gaze becoming increasingly unfocused. She repeated mechanically, "I said he's a bastard, an illegitimate child..."
"You're talking nonsense!!" Zhi Yao abruptly cut off Tian Ruoyi's words. "I want you to apologize to Pei Chiyao right now!"
"Why should I?!"
For some reason, the anger in Tian Ruoyi's heart spread like wildfire, jolting her back to her senses. Her brain, which had been like a jumbled mess moments ago, suddenly cleared. "You... you're Zhi Yao?! You slut who relies on men! You dare to steal my resources?!"
She shrieked at her bodyguards, "You useless idiots, what are you standing around for?! Get her now!"
The bodyguards finally reacted and moved forward. However, before their hands could reach Zhi Yao, she suddenly felt another wave of nausea.
She didn't know what was wrong with her today. It was as if she had eaten something bad and kept feeling like throwing up.
Earlier, when facing Xie Qinzhou, Zhi Yao had managed to hold it in. But now... she felt like... she really couldn't hold it back anymore.
Just as Zhi Yao made a retching sound, Tian Ruoyi panicked completely.
"Shit!! You're not going to throw up, are you?! Ahhhh! Don't you dare puke on me! I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I'll apologize, okay?!"
But it was too late.
Zhi Yao couldn't hold it in any longer.
She bent over, and with a "blegh" sound, she vomited all over Tian Ruoyi, even splattering her face.
"Ahhhh—"
A ear-piercing scream echoed through the entire building.
Zhi Yao was also out of strength. She felt even worse now and looked for a place to throw up some more. But just as she crouched down, the nauseating feeling in her stomach vanished without a trace.
Zhi Yao: "?"
What the hell was that all about?!
She couldn't understand at all!
This was the second time, wasn't it!?
She looked up at Tian Ruoyi with confusion.
She had originally intended to fight Tian Ruoyi, but unexpectedly... she ended up vomiting all over her, even... on her face.
It felt like this method was even more upsetting to her than if she had killed Tian Ruoyi.
Just as the entire building was filled with Tian Ruoyi's curses and shouts, the main door opened again, and Pei Chiyao quickly strode in from outside!
