I completely fell out with the director.

He threatened to make me unable to stay on set.

I guessed why he came to pick on me.

He must have taken benefits from Cheng Taoxi or Cheng Muyuan, and thought I was just a lover of Jiang Du's, so he came to manipulate me.

That night, I called my dad.

My dad, who is also my adoptive father, Jiang Ling, exploded, "A small director dares to target my daughter?"

That night, there was big news on the set.

The biggest investor in the crew withdrew their investment.

The director panicked.

I saw him desperately calling the investors, but they hung up on him.

He went to their place to plead, but they refused to see him.

I know what's going on.

That investor is a partner of our Jiangs' company.

The director was in panic, and Cheng Taoxi was also very anxious. After all, she worked so hard to get the lead role, and hoped to gain more fans.

When the crew was in crisis, Jiang Du and I dealt it another blow.

We publicly announced our withdrawal from the set.

At the same time, we spread the news that the investor withdrew their investment because of the director's misconduct and the lead actress's poor acting skills.

The crew was in turmoil for a while.

However, I knew things wouldn't end like this.

Sure enough, not long after, Cheng's company announced that they would invest in the drama "Can't Face It."

And, all the clips of Jiang Du and me acting opposite with Cheng Taoxi disappeared from the internet, they should have been bought out at a high price by someone.

That night, I received a call.

Cheng Muyuan was very arrogant on the phone: "Jiang Qinwen, are you doing all this just to get my attention? Let go of that idea, I won't acknowledge you. You saw it yourself, Xiao Xi's role as the lead actress won't waver. Even without an investor, our Cheng family can support it on our own. As for you trying to use acting skills to outshine Xiao Xi, haha, how foolish. Do you think being popular in the entertainment industry relies on acting skills?"

He said arrogantly, and the recording interface on my phone kept running.

I said, "If it doesn't rely on acting skills, then what does it rely on? Explain?"

He sneered, "It relies on connections and resources in this industry. Even if you act like a flower, it's useless. Xiao Xi has the entire resources of our Cheng family as a backing, crushing you is as easy as crushing an ant."

"Oh," I asked him, "If acting skills are useless, why did you buy those videos at a high price and hide them?"

Cheng Muyuan hesitated for a moment, then became furious, "Whether it's useful or not, I can't allow you to have something that can harm Xiao Xi, or to defame her in front of the public, or let her lose her fans."

If I had been adopted by a poor and cruel family in the past, and never felt any affection since childhood.

Now, being found by my family, my real family was protecting the fake daughter and bullying me in every way, looking down on me.

In that situation, hearing those words, I really didn't know how sad and low I would feel.

For the ten thousandth time, I was grateful that my adoptive parents had adopted me, they loved me, filled my heart with love, and I didn't need to suffer from these hurts.

Hearing my silence, Cheng Muyuan thought his purpose had been achieved, and said again:

"Also, do you think you've hooked up with Jiang Du? Do you know who he is? He's surnamed Jiang, from the Jiang family in Lingnan. This kind of family even the Cheng family can't climb up to, let alone you?"

Oh, quite well-informed, even the Jiang family in Lingnan knows.

I said, "I'm also surnamed Jiang, why don't you guess that I'm also from the Jiang family?"

Cheng Muyuan was extremely contemptuous, "Jiang Du became the male lead as soon as he debuted, if you were from the Jiang family, would you still play a supporting role?"

Tsk tsk, can I not like to experience all kinds of life, and hone my acting skills?

Finally, he said, "It's good that you withdrew. This drama will definitely be a huge hit. When Xiao Xi becomes the top actress, you'll just wait to be played by Jiang Du, then be kicked out in disgrace from the entertainment industry."

Before hanging up the phone, I asked him:

"We're both sisters. Why do you hate me and fear me so much? You must push me to the bottom. What's your reason?"

He slammed the phone down.
