Damn it! She'd been tricked!
Although the contract she signed clearly stated that the role she played was Yan Yu'er, it did not specify that Yan Yu'er was the second female lead.
So her current role remains the same, but they've changed Xia Shiwen's role to the second female lead.
Correspondingly, her role was changed to the third female lead, and her scenes were naturally cut.
hateful!
Being in the same group as Xia Shiwen is one thing, but how can her role be worse than Xia Shiwen's?!
Jiang Xinrou looked up at the producer with resentment, her chest heaving violently, looking extremely angry.
How can this producer just stay silent?
He clearly accepted gifts from his father and made it explicit that this drama was intended to promote her.
What does he mean now?
Xia Shiwen covered her mouth and laughed brightly, like a mouse secretly enjoying itself.
She coughed lightly, a half-smile on her face, and said, "Miss Jiang, what are you doing? Why aren't you going on stage yet? The director has called you twice already. Are you trying to act like a diva?"
Jiang Xinrou clenched her fists tightly; she was now at a loss for what to do with her anger.
With so many people present and paparazzi around, if she were to walk away now, it would surely be seen as disrespecting the director and acting like a diva.
She's currently on the rise, and she won't allow any negative comments to get out.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Xinrou went on stage with a dark expression.
But Xia Shiwen had no intention of letting her off so easily, and still said with a mocking smile, "Miss Jiang, why is your face so pale? Should I be kind enough to take you to the hospital?"
Jiang Xinrou had a sullen face. Although her face was expressionless, she was already furious inside.
Xia Shiwen watched with a smile as she watched her suppress her anger, quite pleased with herself.
"Miss Jiang probably never imagined that the second female lead role she got through connections would be snatched away by someone else, right?"
Jiang Xinrou gritted her teeth and started using her best trick again.
She bit her lower lip with a wronged expression, her eyes filled with tears: "So it really is you who stole the second female lead's spot. Why are you targeting me like this? Is it because the boy you like likes me? But... matters of the heart are hard to explain."
Xia Shiwen wasn't buying it, and her gaze became even more mocking: "I can't stand your pretentious act! What are you pretending for? Do you want everyone to think I'm bullying you?"
Jiang Xinrou looked meek and submissive, her voice soft and trembling, as if she were very frightened.
"You've misunderstood...it's not what you think..."
"I don't care what you're like!" Xia Shiwen interrupted her sharply: "So what if I'm deliberately bullying you? If you're so capable, why don't you take back the second female lead role? Anyway, you got this role through connections. Everyone has connections, it's just that your connections aren't as strong as mine. Instead of pretending to be weak, you should complain about your bad birth and why you didn't have a father who is the richest man in City A like me."
Finally, Xia Shiwen still didn't feel relieved and added a few more words.
"Oh, by the way, you're just a child switched at birth by the Jiang family. You're not even the Jiang family's daughter. I don't know where this bastard came from. Times have really changed. Someone like you dares to compete with me for a role? You can't afford a mirror, can you?"
"You—!" Jiang Xinrou's eyes reddened with anger.
"What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what did I do'? I was just telling the truth and you're already upset? I think you should go look in the mirror and see yourself. You don't even know who your parents are. You were just lucky enough to be switched at birth by the Jiang family and have been the Jiang family's daughter for over ten years. Now that the real daughter has returned, you shamelessly refuse to leave the Jiang family."
Jiang Xinrou felt like her lungs were about to explode with anger, but she didn't know how to retort.
Since Shen Qingwan revealed Jiang Ran's true identity at her birthday party, everyone has known that she is a fake heiress.
But... I am also my father's biological daughter.
But she dared not reveal this matter, for if she did, she would be a despised illegitimate child.
It's all that damned, despicable woman Shen Qingwan's fault!
She's so heartless! I've been her daughter for so many years, and she didn't even consider my feelings before revealing her fake heiress identity.
How awful!
She will remember the humiliation she suffered today, and one day she will get it back from Shen Qingwan and Jiang Ran.
However, she wouldn't let today's events go unresolved.
Today, paparazzi are everywhere. I'm sure someone filmed the scene of me being bullied by Xia Shiwen.
Xia Shiwen, just wait for the netizens' insults!
What happened today was quite unexpected, and the crew members couldn't help but discuss it privately.
"Sigh, what a mess! We've only just turned on the computer and this is already happening. We're going to have a lot to argue about later."
"This is none of our business. We just need to do our jobs well."
"I think this Miss Xia is really too arrogant... Miss Jiang was bullied by her to the point of crying, it's so pitiful."
"Her father is the richest man in City A. What can you say if she brings her own investment to the production team?"
"I don't think so. Both of them got in through connections. Does one of them have more noble status than the other?"
"......"
Jiang Xinrou returned to her RV and splashed the hot water her assistant had just handed her all over her agent, Jiang Xue.
She had been holding back her anger outside, and now that she was back in the RV, she had to let it all out.
"How did you handle this? Wasn't it supposed to be a secret that I was joining the cast of 'Bloodstained Tower'? How did Xia Shiwen find out?"
Jiang Xue wiped the water from her face with her sleeve: "This...I don't know either, it might have been leaked by the producer..."
"What do I need you for if you don't know anything? I really don't know why Dad made you my manager, you're completely useless!" Jiang Xinrou was still not satisfied, and threw the socks she had taken off at her head again.
Jiang Xue felt bitter inside. It was obvious that the producer and Xia Shiwen had reached some kind of agreement. One was the producer, and the other was a young lady with a billionaire father. What could she, a mere agent, do with what they had decided?
"I've been busy lately meeting with the producer of 'Asking About Love,' and I'll definitely do my best to help you get the role..."
"What's the use of hard work? What I want is certainty!"
"Yes, yes, I will definitely do my best." Jiang Xue nodded heavily, then carefully observed Jiang Xinrou's expression and tentatively asked, "I...can I ask for half a day off today? My daughter is sick and hospitalized..."
"What does her hospitalization have to do with me? She's not going to die! I can give you leave after she dies!"
"......yes."
Inside an incredibly luxurious RV, Xia Shiwen was leisurely lying on the sofa, talking to her phone.
"Thank you for telling me the truth about what happened back then, otherwise I would still be in the dark."
Jiang Ran's clear voice came from the other end of the phone: "Miss Xia, you don't need to be so polite. There's something else I think you'd be more interested in."
