It was an unusual afternoon, at least for Zhao Manshi.
She would remember this unexpected afternoon many years later. It was an indelible memory in her life, the light of her life, the place where love was born and destroyed.
This afternoon, Zhao Manshi put on her beautiful makeup and asked the driver to take her to Hengdian (a large studio base).
“Mom, I’m going to visit my dear sister.” Before she left, Zhao Manshi tidied up her dress. “Do you have anything you want to tell her? I can pass it on.”
Tang Chunxiu was arranging flowers with the nanny, holding a beautiful rose in her hand, there was not much emotion on her face. “She’s now climbing up the social ladder and becoming a big star. I can’t afford to provoke her.?Tell her to take good care of her body. Don’t ruin herself on a man.”
There was a hidden meaning in her words.
Tang Chunxiu did not expect that her cheap second daughter had actually been in the entertainment industry before and had quite a reputation. No wonder when Director Li saw Gu Manxi’s photo, he immediately said that he wanted to marry her. It turned out that Director Li was also a fan of Gu Manxi.
But now Gu Manxi had completely drawn the line between her and the Zhao family, and they had no contact at all. Tang Chunxiu also did not fancy this daughter who relied on sleeping with a director to get to the top. She only hoped that she would behave herself and not tarnish the Zhao family’s reputation.
“Big Sister is really capable. She got Director Lu without saying a word.” Zhao Manshi could not hide her jealousy. “After all, I’m her blood-related younger sister. She clearly knows that I also want to be an actress, but she still refused to give me a chance.”
Tang Chunxiu smiled and said, “Shishi, why are you arguing with an actress? We’re aristocrats. She’s a artisan. We’re not the same type of people.”
Zhao Manshi snorted lightly. After saying goodbye to her mother, she took a car to Hengdian.
She had two goals when she went to visit her big sister. First, she wanted to meet her and scold her big sister to suppress her aura. Second, she heard that Song Group’s president, Mr. Song Chen, was very interested in Director Lu’s movies and often went to check on the progress of the movies.
This was a good opportunity for her to get close to Song Chen!
Her goal was to become Song Group’s lady boss and truly enter the upper-class society.
As for whether she loved Song Chen or not? To be honest, Zhao Manshi did not love Song Chen. It was because Tang Chunxiu’s words that caused her to have the idea of marrying Song Chen.
Between noble families, there was only profit and no love.
In the afternoon, the sky was blue and the sun was bright. Zhao Manshi arrived at the Hengdian photography base. Hengdian was the largest film and television base in the country. There were all kinds of buildings inside, including the palace, attic, brothel, long streets, and the streets of the Republic of China. Many TV series and movies were shot here, and there were still many empty spaces for the film crew to build their own backgrounds freely.
“Miss, in front is the photography area rented by Director Lu,” the driver said respectfully.
Zhao Manshi nodded slightly, and her white high heels landed on the ground. Her custom-made white dress spread out a beautiful curve in the wind, and her fluffy and slightly curly long hair spread over her shoulders. The slim and graceful beauty immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Zhao Manshi raised her chin arrogantly, tidied up the hair that fell off her snow-white neck, and slowly walked in.
Zhao Manshi’s older brother was Zhao Yan, and Zhao Yan also had investments in this movie. Zhao Manshi said her older brother’s name, and the staff did not dare to offend her. They gave Zhao Manshi a card and let her in.
The filming area had been transformed into the style of the Republic of China. Once one entered this place, it was as if one was in the misty rain of the last century. The staff were busy, and the extras were rushing back and forth. Zhao Manshi casually glanced at the center. The second female lead, Cao Yuezhi, was filming a solo scene.
Zhao Manshi was not interested in the second female lead.. She only wanted to find her sister and scold her according to the method her mother had taught her.
