Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife

Chapter 295 - If You Can’t Stand The Heat, Get Out Of The Kitchen (3)

"Then does CEO Mo expect me to feel guilty about it? At the time, we had already cut off our ties to each other. As my mother's only daughter, how can I just watch her struggle if I knew I could help her? Please don't take it personally, CEO Mo. Your series's poor performance has nothing to do with Bluemedia." She retorted with a smile, as if telling him that she wasn't afraid of him at all.

Mo Yuchen became extremely angry with her. His gaze was so sharp, it was almost as if he couldn't wait to tear her up himself. One reason why the board wasn't fully in support of him succeeding Golden Star was because he was the one responsible for Bai Qingyue's failed TV drama.

He didn't think that he would fail as he spent most of his time perfecting the cast, making sure that he only casted popular stars such as Bai Qingyue so they could effectively entice their audience to watch the TV drama. However, he didn't anticipate that Bluemedia would easily choose to replace Bai Qingyue as "The Poisonous Concubine" with the former queen, Tang Liyan.

The Poisonous Concubine became a huge hit and had effectively propelled Tang Liyan back to her previous spot as a queen, on the same level as Bai Qingyue. It was such a success that it became a huge slap for Mo Yuchen, leaving a stain on the perfect record he'd been maintaining for years.

Because of his failure, he was heavily criticized not only by his father, but also the board of directors at Golden Star. So how could he simply let Su Xiaofei off after knowing that she was directly involved with the production of The Poisonous Concubine?

Mo Yuchen had to admit that he didn't expect that Su Xiaofei would do such a thing to get even with him. What kind of sin did he commit for her to view him as her enemy? Was it because he couldn't return her affection, so it made her feel hateful towards him?

"It has been years, Su Xiaofei. You said that we owe each other nothing, but it seems like you can't let go of me yet." He accused her. He would have confronted her earlier, but his pride wouldn't allow him to make a scene and give his critics a reason to go after him.

It wasn't the first time Su Xiaofei had caused him trouble, anyway. She always tried getting his attention by angering him.

Su Xiaofei stared at him for a moment, before bursting into a fit of laughter, making Mo Yuchen feel like she had taken his words as a joke. This woman really knew how to get on his nerves!

"Does CEO Mo mean to say that because you are releasing a TV series, we shouldn't have done the same? Do you mean to imply that it was our fault that your project failed, and not because of your incompetency? Our families are running businesses, not charities. While collaboration is possible, competition is unavoidable." She reminded him.

If that was the case, what was the point of competition between their companies? Should Bluemedia give way just because Mo Yuchen was her former fiancé? They were separated and had broken their engagement amicably. Although in reality, that didn't mean that Su Xiaofei would not exact revenge on him.

"Golden Star also has so much resources compared to Bluemedia and since it wasn't the first time your company has released a TV series, wouldn't that mean that you had a head start way before us? It seems to me that CEO Mo still hasn't realized where you went wrong. If you are really that confident and capable, you wouldn't have to push the blame on me just because you failed."

Mo Yuchen was astonished and wondered how to retort. Every word Su Xiaofei said felt like a knife that was stabbing on his ego. The more he looked at Su Xiaofei, the more he could feel his anger rising. She even mocked him with a smile on her face.

Su Xiaofei pushed a strand of her hair behind her ear and looked at Mo Yuchen mockingly. Obstructing his way was just a small punishment, because if she could, she would have killed him the same way he and Ye Mingyu did to her in her previous life!

"Both series have nothing to do with us. If you cannot stand the heat, get out of the kitchen, CEO Mo." She commented, further angering Mo Yuchen in the process.

"Do you really think by angering me like this would make me want you back, Su Xiaofei? I thought you were done with your silly thoughts about me, but you proved me wrong again." He sneered at her.

"You are young and ignorant. You should be careful with your words now that I am the CEO of Golden Star. Aren't you afraid of making me your enemy? Showbiz isn't as simple as you think!" He added with a dark expression. His resentment for Su Xiaofei was like a thorny vine, twining around his heart, gripping it as tightly as possible.

Because of Su Xiaofei, his clean record was now being doubted by his father and the board of directors.

"CEO Mo, what do you want my Feifei to be careful of?"

Mo Yuchen was slightly startled, hearing a deep, baritone voice behind Su Xiaofei.

Meanwhile, Su Xiaofei's heartbeat spiked up the moment she heard that familiar voice she'd been longing to hear now. The urge to burst into tears was so strong, she couldn't stop the tears stinging her eyes.

In the end, she decided to shut her eyes and took a deep breath to calm down. She didn't dare raise her hopes up in fear that this was yet again another figment of her imagination, tricking her with her deepest desire to see Lu Qingfeng finally coming home.

"I dare you to repeat those words again, CEO Mo.." The voice continued.
