Bai Qianmo had already guessed the general idea from the three of them, but she didn't expect that Yu Qianqian would approach Xia Wei as her best friend and then steal Xia Wei's boyfriend step by step.
As the saying goes, it's not the thief you should fear, but the one who has designs on you. Especially when the thief is scheming to gain your trust, that kind of harm is truly devastating.
"Judging from what Yu Qianqian just said, is Hesong deliberately trying to suppress you?"
Xia Wei chuckled self-deprecatingly: "Yang Caiwen, the vice president of Hesong, is Yu Qianqian's aunt. After Yu Qianqian and I fell out because of Li Jiangyuan, the company basically ignored me. So I was too lazy to go to the company this year. I usually took on small roles on my own. Since the company didn't help me, most of the roles I got were maids or similar characters."
Bai Qianmo suddenly understood. This explained why Xia Wei, despite having excellent qualities in all aspects, had never received the company's attention.
Yu Qianqian was venting her personal anger because the vice president of Hesong was her own aunt. With just a little manipulation, Xia Wei would find it impossible to move an inch in Hesong.
Currently, Hesong is ignoring Xia Wei, but the exorbitant breach of contract fee prevents Xia Wei from resigning easily, resulting in a waste of her youth.
Newcomer contracts typically start at five years. Xia Wei has been with Hesong for two years, and she still has three more years to go. Xia Wei is already 24 years old, and in three years she will be 27. The entertainment industry changes rapidly, and the chances of making it big by then will be extremely slim.
Yu Qianqian clearly wanted to ensure that Xia Wei would never have a chance to rise in the world.
"Isn't Li Jiangyuan his stage name?" She had searched online for Hesong's artists and found no one named Li Jiangyuan.
Xia Wei nodded gently: "His stage name is Li Anbei, and Li Jiangyuan is his real name."
Bai Qianmo raised an eyebrow knowingly: "The most popular leading man under Hesong Entertainment right now."
No wonder Li Jiangyuan was so heavily disguised when he appeared here. He is now a key artist promoted by Hesong, with a constant stream of film and advertising contracts. For artists like him who rely on their looks, their fans are basically female fans from the fandom, and the thing they are most afraid of is dating.
Therefore, Li Jiangyuan and Yu Qianqian's relationship needs to be kept secret. Thinking of this, a glint of wisdom flashed in Bai Qianmo's eyes.
Xia Wei gave a nonchalant chuckle: "Yes, in just one year, he has become the most popular artist under Hesong. Perhaps this is what he wanted. He has indeed succeeded."

The auditions for "Green Fruit" were divided into four groups.
It just so happens that the second and fourth female leads were in two different groups. Yu Qianqian and Mu Sirou signed up together, so their numbers were next to each other.
The two entered audition rooms number two and number three one after the other. Li Jiangyuan sat in the rest area and waited, his gaze involuntarily drifting toward Xia Wei in the corner.
After hesitating for a while, I got up and walked over.
"Xia Wei, can we talk alone?"
Xia Wei looked up at the man in front of her, her voice indifferent: "We're not familiar with each other, there's nothing to talk about. Qianmo, let's go, it'll be our turn soon."
Li Jiangyuan looked helpless and stood in front of Xia Wei, lowering his voice to say, "Xia Wei, can you get along with Qianqian properly? She feels very sorry for you because of you. I know I'm a jerk and I don't expect you to forgive me. If you have any complaints, come at me. But Qianqian is innocent. Can you please stop giving her attitude?"
Xia Wei tensed up involuntarily, one hand gripping the bag of her crossbody bag tightly, her face pale and bloodless.
She had long seen through Li Jiangyuan's scumbag nature, but she never expected him to be so utterly despicable.
Suppressing her surging anger, Xia Wei forced a cold smile: "Li Jiangyuan, you can treat Yu Qianqian like a treasure, but please don't put on a show of being a devoted lover in front of your ex-girlfriend, okay? I'm the only one in the world who has the right to say what kind of scumbag you are. As for whether I give Yu Qianqian a good look or not, that's none of your business. She may be your little fairy, but others may not necessarily think so."
Bai Qianmo, remembering that Gu Jueye had recently taken to calling her "little fairy," couldn't help but say, "Don't insult the little fairy."
Originally, she only wanted to protect the reputation of "Little Fairy," but she completely angered Li Jiangyuan.
Li Jiangyuan glared coldly at Bai Qianmo: "Xia Wei, have you really stooped to making friends with such ill-mannered people?"
Xia Wei's face immediately turned cold: "No manners? Does someone like you deserve respect? If you had any self-awareness, you wouldn't have come here to show off your intelligence. We reserve our manners for those who deserve respect, not for scum like you!"
Xia Weiqi's chest heaved with anger, and Li Jiangyuan felt a sharp pang in his heart as he looked at the girl with a cold and sharp expression.
He stared at her in astonishment: "Xia Wei, what happened to you? You used to be so gentle and considerate. No matter what I said or did, you would always support and understand me. Now you've really become... you've become unreasonable!"
Thinking of her former self, Xia Wei's expression was full of mockery: "I'm glad that the stupid and naive Xia Wei of the past is completely dead, otherwise, I might never have understood that there are shameless people like you and Yu Qianqian in this world."
"Xia Wei, why are you saying such hurtful things? You can say whatever you want, but don't talk about Qianqian. She really didn't mean to hurt you. It's all my fault. You can hit me or scold me, but you absolutely can't talk about Qianqian!"
Xia Wei was silent for a while, then suddenly chuckled twice as if she had heard something very funny.
"Li Jiangyuan, no wonder you got together with Yu Qianqian. You two are really a perfect match. I sincerely wish you two bitches and dogs a long and happy life together, forever bound together. Just don't go out and harm other people."
