Rebirth of the Villainess: Young Master Lu’s Wicked Wife

Tang Liyan was visibly angry, and she was having a hard time keeping her emotions in check, seeing how upset Zhao Jingmei was. She didn't need to ask that the younger woman was worried about how this would impact her work as her assistant and the trouble it would cause for Tang Liyan. However, Tang Liyan was more concerned about their safety.

The rest of the crew were murmuring just outside her tent, gossiping with each other, and not even one had stepped forward to ask if they were okay. Tang Liyan hated that she had to expose Zhao Jingmei to this nasty side of the showbiz industry, where schemes and malice were rampant. She didn't think that a kind-hearted girl like Zhao Jingmei deserved to get entangled with these problems.

Su Xiaofei entered the tent with Zhang Ling following behind her, but Zhang Lan nowhere in sight. Her eyes swept around, taking in the mess within the tent as if a storm had passed, destroying everything in its wake. Her face remained expressionless as she looked at Tang Liyan and her young assistant.

"Miss Su, please don't blame Xiao Mei. If anything, please allow me to settle the tab on her behalf." Tang Liyan pleaded to Su Xiaofei. She knew that it would cost an arm and a leg for Zhao Jingmei if the production team and Su Xiaofei held the young woman accountable for the damage.

Even before Su Xiaofei could respond, Liao Yang and the rest of the crew decided to enter and witnessed the mess inside the tent themselves. Some of them gasped upon seeing the damage, while the others couldn't contain the snicker on their faces.

"What happened here?" Liao Yang frowned upon seeing the mess on Tang Liyan's tent. "What's going on?"

Since he was practically the head of the production team, something like this would give him a headache. Bellissima might also hold him accountable, as this happened under his watch.

"Miss Tang, your clothes are in tatters. It's impossible to use it now." Zhao Jingmei held the clothes Tang Liyan was wearing earlier before she changed into her costume and the skirt was torn as if someone had ruined it out of anger.

"There's no need for that, Miss Tang. We only needed to catch the culprit and let him or her settle the bill. I refuse to believe that one of our people would dare to inflict such a thing on one of us, especially Miss Zhao."

Su Xiaofei blatantly ignored Liao Yang's question, her eyes narrowing as she thought how annoying these petty schemes could be. However, since it was a usual thing that happened within the industry, one can only learn how to adapt.

Liao Yang shot Su Xiaofei a glare, sensing that this young woman was ignoring him. He was the one who called the shots here, so how dare she ignore his question and refuse to answer him?

Meanwhile, Zhao Jingmei's eyes stung with tears upon hearing Su Xiaofei's words. Initially, she was wary and afraid of Director Su as their boss was a little intimidating in her opinion. However, she hadn't thought that she would stand up for her today, refusing to push the blame on her.

"Go. See if you are missing anything. I will make sure to get to the bottom of this." Su Xiaofei told the two women before pulling a chair for herself to take a seat. The more damage the culprit left, the better. She would make sure that whoever it was, they would regret crossing the line.

Liao Yang was startled hearing her words, but the more he looked at her, the more Su Xiaofei looked enticing in his eyes. He shamelessly stared at her beautiful face, down to her ample chest, his tongue wetting his lips as he noticed her small waist and wide hips.

How could he not notice this beauty earlier? He thought. Liao Yang thought that Su Xiaofei was a kind of domineering woman that could pose a challenge to men if they dream of conquering her.

Zhao Jingmei ceased her tears and did as she was told, wanting nothing more but to help Tang Liyan. If what Su Xiaofei said was true, then someone must be holding a grudge against Tang Liyan and was giving them a hard time on purpose.

Tang Liyan took pity on her and decided to assist her by checking her own belongings and found out that her keys and her wallet were missing. Thankfully, her phone was being kept by Zhao Jingmei during their photoshoot, so she didn't need to worry if someone would snoop through her phone records and messages.

Once she was certain that those were the only things missing, she reported to Su Xiaofei at once. Since Su Xiaofei had decided to get involved, Tang Liyan's uneasiness was somewhat dispelled with the young woman's presence. After working with Su Xiaofei for years now, she knew that she had a fiery temper when provoked.

Su Xiaofei raised a slender brow and scoffed.

"My, my. Miss Tang, just what kind of people did you offend for you to be bullied like this? Today, they dared to ruin your clothes and stole your things. Tomorrow, they might go an extra mile and harm you physically. I dare to say that I'm really disappointed at how lax the security is on this production." She sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose.

Some crew members lowered their heads, wanting to leave at once, but as they turned to step out of Tang Liyan's tent, they were left flabbergasted as they saw men in black uniforms stationed outside, forbidding anyone of them to leave.

"Miss Su, what do you think you are doing?!" Liao Yang roared, snapping out of his lustful fantasies about Su Xiaofei, his anger returning at once.

"Zhang Ling, can you please do me a favor? Please summon the hotel security and call the local police.. Today, I will make sure that justice prevails."
