The fashionably dressed woman took off her sunglasses. She had on a lot of eye makeup, but it still couldn’t hide the long scar at the corner of her right eye. Smiling in amusement, she said, “Ye Qing, you can’t be naive enough to think good things will just fall into your lap, right?
The person sitting next to this woman was indeed Ye Qing, who had entered the entertainment circle a while ago.
“Older Sister Li, what... What do you mean by this? You took my money. You promised me.”
“Yes, I promised you that I would find a path to riches and fame for you.” Older Sister Li lazily played with her sunglasses. “That’s why I’m giving you the opportunity to choose the one you want. If it was someone else, they wouldn’t even have the chance to choose. In the entertainment world, you’re already fortunate if a financial backer will be interested in you.”
Older Sister Li glanced at her from the side. “Don’t be so reserved. You’re already someone that’s entered the entertainment world. Didn’t you check the situation before stepping foot into this world? How can you get ahead without paying anything?”
“But...”
“No buts. Don’t you know that you’re a rare commodity right now? It’s your luck to have the same face as your younger sister.”
Ye Qing froze when she heard the words “younger sister”. A strong feeling of embarrassment rose up in her heart.
“Why are you bringing her up?”
“Don’t pretend. Everyone knows that you and Ye Zhen are identical twins. It’s a pity though. You’re not as lucky as your sister, who was able to marry Lu Beichuan.” Older Sister Li smiled. “You two have the same starting conditions, but different fates. You can only accept your lot in life. Do you have any idea how many people in our industry are publicly and covertly approaching me to arrange for a hook up with you?”
Ye Qing’s complexion was extremely ugly. She tightened her grip on the folder of documents.
“I don’t want to know.”
Older Sister Li glanced at her and suddenly tried using kind words to persuade her, “Okay, I’m sure you find this situation unfair. I won’t mention it anymore, okay? However, there is one thing I have to make clear to you. You want resources. That’s no problem. With your face and figure, as long you’re willing to risk everything and spread your legs, you can have any resource that you want. I’ve told you from the beginning that this industry isn’t easy.
The connections and paths to what you want aren’t easy to get. A rich family background isn’t enough. I’ve carefully selected the people that I chose for you. Don’t worry. They’re all generous spenders. They won’t treat you badly.”
Ye Qing took a deep breath and returned the folder with profiles of old men to Older Sister Li.
“No need. Thank you Older Sister Li for your kind intentions.”
“I didn’t think you would be so stubborn. Alright then, since you’re not willing, there’s nothing I can do about that. Although...” Her tone changed. She looked at Ye Qing with a smile. “I can’t just take your money and do nothing. How about this, I’ll point out another path for you. It’ll be up to you if you can succeed.”
“What path?”
After Ye Qing saw that Older Sister Li wanted to introduce her to old men, she was unwilling to trust her again.
However, succeeding in the entertainment industry truly wasn’t as easy as she thought it would. In the past year or so, other than getting a few small endorsement deals and acting in a few supporting character roles in minor shows, she hadn’t gotten any other jobs.
At the same time, she had tasted plenty of indifference and bitterness in the entertainment world. She knew full well that if she couldn’t advance, then she would be destined to be trampled by others.
Older Sister Li was an old timer in the entertainment world. She had a thorough understanding of the rules and ways in the entertainment world.
Ye Qing had thought she only needed to spend money and Older Sister Li would find a path for her. She hadn’t expected that it would be a path of no return.
