Sir, How About A Marriage?

Chapter 268: Seeing the Truth

She grew prouder of herself as the number of her fans increased. As a celebrity, she knew the importance of staying relevant. The company did not care what methods were used as long as she was talked about.

Although Yang Li disagreed, the company’s higher-ups were very satisfied. It was also for this reason that she grew dissatisfied with Yang Li.

If it were not for the fact that Yang Li had worked with Ning Xia before and could help her with imitating Ning Xia to win over Ning Xia’s fans, she would not have kept such a dull person by her side.

After some time had passed, the trouble Yang Li was worried about did not appear.

In fact, she was very worried Mu Chen would be displeased with her. Therefore, she had acted coquettishly with her brother after the incident and asked him to bring her to the Mu family to apologize. Although she said she was going there to apologize, the truth was she wanted to test the water and also to stage a scene. She had specially arranged for the paparazzi to take pictures of her visiting the Mu family house.

At that time, Mu Chen was not home so spent more than half a day there eating and chatting with Jiang Jin.

Jiang Jin did not keep up with entertainment news so she was unaware of the matter between Ye Xin and Mu Chen. She only mentioned Mu Chen’s mother when Ye Xin told her that she was an actress.

Ye Xin recalled at that time, Jiang Jin had said to Sister Yu in a regretful tone, “Liang Zhen won so many awards back then. If her daughter-in-law wins the best actress award, wouldn’t it be perfect?”

Ye Xin remembered that Sister Yu had looked at her with a smile before she said to Jiang Jin, “What’s so difficult about that? Isn’t what you’re looking for right in front of you?”

At that time, her heart had thumped wildly in her chest, and she quickly changed the topic.

When she returned, she immediately asked Yang Li to tell the company that she wanted to submit her film for the best actress award. She was determined to win.

She discovered that she had always been lax when chasing fame and fortune because she did not lack those things. However, she was greatly motivated when she thought about how the Mu family wanted a daughter-in-law who’s famous and influential. At that time, she felt as though she had been injected with stimulants; she felt as though she had found a direction in life.

After she told the company about her intentions, the higher-ups had told her to be at ease. They had said they had spoken to the judges and that the award would definitely go to her. She was elated when she heard those words.

However, Yang Li told her to double-confirm the higher-ups’ words. She had said that there would be last-minute changes at award shows every year.

Unlike Yang Li, Ye Xin and the company were very confident.

At that time, Ye Xin felt like she was ready to set sail; she only needed the wind. As long as she won the award for best actress, she would have everything she ever wanted.

With that award, even if Mu Chen was slightly unhappy with her, he would still tolerate it. After all, he would definitely accept her, even if it was for his mother’s sake. As long as he accepted her, she was confident she would be able to change his heart. For so many years, there had never been another woman beside Mu Chen other than herself. Therefore, she made countless plans for their future, and no matter which angle she looked at it from, the outcome would be the same: they would be together.

However, who knew Song Ning would suddenly appear out of nowhere?

At this time, fire began to rise in Song Ning’s heart again. She slowly rose to her feet and walked to the wall and back to calm down so she could think again.

Why did she not win the award when everyone told her she would win? What if she was never considered for the award at all? What if it was all just a ploy to harm her?

Ye Xin closed her eyes, enduring the piercing pain in her heart as she finally came to her senses. She had been too naive and ostentatious. Everything she thought she had at her fingertips was just an illusion!
