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

Chapter 616 First Love (2)

When the lead role ended up in the hands of the junior who Xiao Rufeng was accompanying earlier, it shocked not only the actress, but also the public. The young actress was neither a popular star nor did she have an outstanding background. Ye Mingyu was practically beaten by a newbie and it would surely hurt her pride more than being beaten by Xiao Rufeng.

Before Su Xiaofei had given birth and was admitted to the hospital, she had already arranged a few plans for Xiao Rufeng and the Zhang sisters to follow. Xiao Rufeng didn't even know how Su Xiaofei knew that Ye Mingyu would audition for the lead role of this TV series.

Su Xiaofei purposely asked her to bring this newly signed actress of Bluemedia here to audition instead of her. Her manager said that the role doesn't fit her, but it still left Xiao Rufeng confused in the end.

However, as soon as she saw Ye Mingyu, she understood her manager's motive clearly. Xiao Rufeng then knew that Su Xiaofei was giving her a chance to humiliate Ye Mingyu and get back at the woman for her past misdeeds against her. If she hadn't fallen for Ye Mingyu's lies back then, she wouldn't have ended up being kidnapped by her sister and sent to Yan Xiuchen's bed.

"Great job, Rufeng. President Su would surely be pleased with the news once she wakes up. Ye Mingyu would surely lose her cool once again because of this." Zhang Ling said as she drove her to Bluemedia.

Being reminded of her friend-slash-manager's current condition, Xiao Rufeng couldn't help but feel sad. It's been a week since Su Xiaofei had given birth to her twins and slipped into a medically induced coma, but it wasn't clear when she would be able to wake up and hold her daughters for the first time.

"Did Feifei know that Ye Mingyu will audition too? Why didn't she ask me to audition instead?" She asked her manager's assistant.

"We've been keeping an eye on Ye Mingyu and her lover. It's normal for President Su to take advantage of it. Do you know a certain Huo Yuxin, Rufeng?" Zhang Ling asked in return.

"I do. Didn't she used to be an actress before? But she suddenly left the limelight when she was about to reach the peak of her career."

"Huo Yuxin is the cousin of Huang Jingjing, Mo Yuchen's fiancée. Huang Jingjing wanted her cousin to sign under Golden Star upon her return, but President Su convinced Huo Yuxin to join Bluemedia instead. Do you know why she easily accepted President Su's invitation?"

Xiao Rufeng shook her head.

"I have no idea. What does it have to do with Ye Mingyu anyway?"

She then remembered seeing Mo Yuchen and Huang Jingjing having a meal together when she went out with Yan Xiuchen that day. Xiao Rufeng surmised that Huang Jingjing was trying to convince Mo Yuchen back then.

"Well, you see. President Su dug into the skeletons in Han Yize's closet and we found out that he was once involved with Huo Yuxin. They used to be childhood lovers. She is his first love but he lost for good. They didn't break up because they fell out of love, but because Huo Yuxin's family went bankrupt. Han Yize's family refused to agree to their marriage and criticized her for being a mere actress. She left the country when it was clear that he couldn't stand up for her and cut off ties with him for good."

Xiao Rufeng stared at Zhang Ling for a moment. She didn't know what to say at all. She'd never thought that Huo Yuxin had lost everything because of her love for Han Yize.

"Since then, Han Yize has gotten involved with several actresses, as you know. One even went missing, but the truth was Han Yize killed her and threw her remains in the sea, so no one would be able to find her."

Horror washed through Xiao Rufeng upon hearing that. So that young actress, Lin Zihan was already dead and killed by none other than Han Yize himself? She made a mental note not to argue with Yan Xiuchen anymore when it comes to her security.

"Although the two broke up years ago, it's quite obvious that Han Yize hasn't gotten over her. He chose those actresses, along with Ye Mingyu, because they somewhat resembled her."

"But does Miss Huo feel the same? I mean, does she still love Han Yize?" Xiao Rufeng asked curiously.

Zhang Ling shrugged as she turned the steering wheel on the right, entering the Bluemedia's premises.

"Does it matter? Even if she still loves him, Huo Yuxin's resentment towards him runs deeper than her love. Han Yize's family is the one responsible for making her family bankrupt, because they disagreed with the idea of her as their daughter-in-law. Her parents' health took a toll and they both fell sick and lost their lives shortly after. Huo Yuxin would never be able to forgive him in this lifetime. She decided to sign with Bluemedia in exchange for President Su's help to avenge her family's misfortune in the hands of Han Yize and his family."

"Wouldn't that mean that she would also deal with Ye Mingyu?" Everything was starting to make sense now to Xiao Rufeng. However, she was astonished to find out that Su Xiaofei was taking advantage of Han Yize's attachment towards Huo Yuxin.

Zhang Ling pulled the car to a stop in their designated parking space. She then alighted the car and Xiao Rufeng followed her lead.

"There's no need for Miss Huo to deal with Ye Mingyu. Her mere presence is enough to shake Ye Mingyu's small world and push her to a corner. You should know what kind of person Ye Mingyu is by now. She's a selfish little bitch who doesn't like sharing her toy. Once she threw a fit and tried to assault Huo Yuxin, the person who would immediately come to Miss Huo's defense would be Han Yize."
