"Even so, you can't betray your dignity. Look at how arrogant that director is. Aren't you afraid that he will do something to you next time you're in the middle of filming with someone like him?" At first, Huo XIwen was beginning to understand Jiang Zhixin, but deep down, he still found it hard to accept.
Hearing this, Jiang Zhixin laughed bitterly, "Miss Huo, thank you for thinking so highly of me. In your eyes, you even think of me as a person with dignity. But do you know? People like me, who have nothing at all, don't even have dignity. Qingyun didn't tell you. I worked at a nightclub before, right? In order to eat and pay my debt, I can even sell my body. It can't let me eat my fill, nor can it let me pay off the debts my father owes me outside."
Huo XIwen never thought that Jiang Zhixin would encounter such a situation. Luo Qingyun never told her about it before. Looking at this thin and weak girl in front of her, her heart had already changed from her initial confusion to sympathy.
"Who would be willing to be a slave if they could be a high and mighty princess? I was the young lady of my family. Who would have thought that one day, God would be so cruel to me that he would push me into such an abyss? But I'm not afraid. I know that if I continue to be depressed and don't dare to struggle against fate, then my life will truly be over." After Jiang Zhixin finished speaking, she heaved a long sigh of relief, as if she had held back her words for a long time. Finally, she found someone she could confide in, allowing her to spit them out without reservation.
Huo XIwen finally understood why she was able to put her dignity and bottom line under her feet.
Just as she had said, there was no girl in this world who did not want to be a proud princess. However, fate was always so unfair. From birth until now, she had always lived under the care of her family, unaware of the human suffering.
Actually, with her current status and identity, she really didn't have the qualifications to ask Jiang Zhixin to follow the rules and act fearlessly.
She gradually came to understand that what Chen Zicheng had said to her earlier was all because she had imagined this world to be too beautiful and had overlooked the dark side that was hiding behind it.
"I've said so much to the two of you, I'm sorry for making a fool of myself." After finishing what she wanted to say, Jiang Zhixin laughed at herself a little. She held up the cup of coffee that the butler had given her and took a sip.
"Miss Jiang, I admire your tenacious personality that does not submit to fate, but I hope that you understand that sometimes, when people do things, they still need to have some bottom line. Your compromise today will probably be the reason for that director to hurt other girls tomorrow." Chen Zi Chen reminded her.
"Yes, I will remember Mr. Chen's words." Jiang Zhixin nodded.
"Then we'll just let that bastard off like this?" "Miss Jiang, you took the loss just like that?" When Huo Xiwen thought about how the bad guys had not been punished, she felt extremely displeased.
However, Jiang Zhixin shook her head, "I didn't suffer a loss for nothing. He agreed to let me be the female lead of this new movie."
"Really?" Huo XIwen was a bit surprised.
"Well, I used this opportunity to coerce him."I did it shamelessly, but at the very least, when he wants to do bad things to someone else, he'll have to think about the cost. I gave him a warning for other girls who need opportunities as much as I do." Jiang Zhi thought.
"No wonder Qingyun said that she misses the past you. It seems that you really aren't the sort of person who would be bullied for nothing." "I've felt sorry for you in vain." Huo XIwen thought back to his previous angry look, and once again felt that it was a bit funny.
"In the past, it was exactly because I loved to bully people that I became like this. I don't like the me of the past, but it's good to use the me of the past to deal with those bad people." Jiang Zhixin smiled as she said this.
"Alright, since the misunderstanding has been resolved, you don't have to be depressed anymore, Xi Wen." Chen Zi Chen said as he patted Huo Xi Wen's shoulder.
At this moment, Huo XIwen's face was full of joy.
Seeing the interaction between the two, Jiang Zhixin's eyes were filled with envy, "Alright, I've finished what I wanted to say, so I won't disturb the two of you anymore."Mr. Chen, Miss Huo, thank you again. I will take my leave first."
When Huo XIwen heard this, he knew that she had misunderstood their relationship. He quickly waved his hand, "No, you misunderstood me. It's not what you think."
"Take care, Miss Jiang. When there's a chance, I'll treat you to a meal." Chen Zicheng, on the other hand, was smilingly escorting her out of the room.
Huo Xiwen only stood to the side and stared blankly. After Jiang Zhixin left, she then looked at Chen Zichen angrily, "What happened to you?" "Why not explain our relationship to Miss Jiang?"
"Xi Wen, actually, why are you so concerned about whether others have misunderstood our relationship? Could it be that others have misunderstood, and we are really able to be together? " Chen Zi Chen looked back at her, his voice gentle but tinged with a hint of disappointment.
"I..." Huo XIwen also noticed that he seemed to particularly mind being tied up with Chen Zicheng.
"Alright, it's getting late. You should go upstairs and rest, I'll go to my room as well." As he spoke, he turned around and walked back to his room. Huo XIwen looked at his retreating back and felt a little embarrassed in his heart. She knew that her refusal had hurt him, but what could he do?
It would be more irresponsible not to refuse.
Chen Zicheng, Chen Zicheng, I can only blame you for coming too late. She already has Fu Muyun, it's impossible for her to fall in love with another man.
Resort, 1st Building, business suite.
When Jiang Zhixin returned to her room, the light in her room was turned on, and she suddenly saw a person sitting on the sofa. At first, she was shocked by that person's figure, but when she saw him clearly, she immediately calmed down.
She ignored the man sitting on the sofa and turned to go into the bedroom.
"Congratulations, you got the female lead." The man opened his mouth to congratulate her, but there was no warmth in his tone. His voice was terrifyingly cold.
"Thanks to Director Zhou." Jiang Zhi replied silently in her heart.
"Jiang Zhixin!" As he shouted her name, he suddenly stood up from the sofa and rushed to her back. She reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling her body directly in front of him, forcing her to stand facing him.
"Director Zhou, what do you have to say?" Jiang Zhixin raised her eyes and looked at him. There was not a single trace of fear in her eyes. On the contrary, she was as calm as still water without the slightest ripple.
"Advice?" How could I dare to instruct you? You have so many tricks." Zhou Yi's tone was a bit exasperated.
"Director Zhou is overpraising me. It's all thanks to Director Zhou's willingness to give me the chance." Jiang Zhixin said as she looked at him with an expressionless face.
