“How can some people be so thick-skinned?! She interfered in someone else’s marriage and still has the cheek to show off in front of the main wife. She even acts like she’s in a relationship in front of us. It made me really think that the heavens were blind just now and let her be so lucky to turn from a pheasant into a phoenix.”
“Hahaha, I think some people’s faces are about to swell from the slaps! But speaking of which, An’an is too low-key. I didn’t expect her to have such a big alias as the CEO’s wife!”
“The real big shots are all low-key. Only those who aren’t the real deal would want to shout so much so that the entire world knows! Unfortunately, in CEO Si’s eyes, the status of the main wife is not something that a mistress raised outside can shake. Some people just don’t know their own limits and have to get slapped back down hard for them to realize the reality!”
There was no direct mentioning of names in the noisy discussion, but as long as Tan Si was not mentally retarded, she would know that she had become the target of ridicule. Her face was ashen as she pretended that nothing had happened and left the set to return to her private car to rest.
As soon as she got into the car, Tan Si did not hide her anger anymore. She chased the driver out of the car. After sitting down, she found the glass of water by the table an eyesore. She reached out and swept it to the ground forcefully. “Ah! Tan Ming, that b*tch. Why can’t she be sensible enough to get out of my house immediately after I was born? Why does she have to stay at home to be an eyesore and snatch my things!”
From the corner of her eye, she saw Dong Ling standing at the side with her head lowered, as if she were a quail. Tan Si, filled with anger still not vented, stood up and raised her hand to slap her.
Dong Ling’s face was slapped to the side, and the tender flesh on her cheek instantly swelled up. Dong Ling covered her face aggrievedly and looked up at Tan Si timidly.
Tan Si stared fixedly at Dong Ling with a dark expression. She strained her voice and roared, “Why aren’t you saying anything?! Weren’t you quite good at talking just now? You even deliberately said it so loudly to mislead me! Now, everyone is laughing at me. Are you deliberately trying to sec me make a fool of myself?!”
Dong Ling’s eyes were filled with tears as she quickly shook her head. “Sister Si, I didn’t want to see you make a fool of yourself. It’s my fault. I should have figured out President Si’s intentions first.”
Even Tan Si, his girlfriend by name, couldn’t figure it out. What could Dong Ling, an assistant, know?
Dong Ling also knew that Tan Si was just finding an excuse to vent her anger on her. Other than admitting her mistake, what else could she do? This salary was the best she could get. Her family’s expenses were huge, and she could not lose this job.
Tan Si felt a little better when she saw how Dong Ling did not dare to resist. The corners of her lips curled up. “Low-class people should look like low-class people. A wise man submits to circumstances. There aren’t many people who know their limits like you.”
Dong Ling immediately revealed a fawning smile. “Isn’t that so? A person like Tan Ming who doesn’t know her own identity will be taught a lesson one day. She won’t be smug for long!”
Dong Ling had been by Tan Si’s side for a long time and knew what she liked to hear. She cursed Tan Ming a few times and said that Tan Si and Si Cheng were a match made in heaven. Tan Si’s expression clearly softened.
Tan Si glanced at Dong Ling’s red and swollen face and casually took out a limited edition lipstick from her bag. “I’ve only used it twice. This is for you.”
Dong Ling’s eyes lit up. She reached out to take it and quickly calculated how much it could be sold for on the second-hand net. Then, she said to Tan Si happily, “Thank you, Sister Si. I’m really glad to be able to follow such a good artist like you!”
Seeing how swollen Dong Ling’s eyelids were, Tan Si asked again, “What’s wrong with your face?”
Dong Ling was stunned for a moment before she immediately came back to her senses. “I was greedy just now and couldn’t help but eat peaches. I’m allergic!”
Tan Si nodded in satisfaction.
Tan Ming and Tan Si’s scenes were in the afternoon. Because of what happened in the afternoon, she always felt that the people around her were looking at her mockingly. Whenever she saw others chatting, she assumed that everyone was talking about how she was shameless and destroying other people’s families.
Although Tan Si only had three lines, she had too many distracting thoughts in her mind. In addition, she constantly wanted to suppress Tan Ming and crazily use her acting skills to get more scenes for herself. Under such circumstances, she acted completely unnaturally. Director Dong kept shouting for cuts.
This part was filmed with Tan Ming playing Shen Yi. At the time of the victim’s death, they happened to pass by the victim’s residence. Tan Si was acting as a passerby who accidentally collided with Shen Yi on the sidewalk. Not far away, a young couple witnessed this scene from the perspective of a bystander..
