Chapter 354 - There’s Nothing Between Us (2)
The more Su Xiaofei had an encounter like this with Ye Mingyu, the more disappointed she became. Why was it that the scheming little bitch that caused her death before was this dumb? Was it because she was more foolish than Ye Mingyu before?
Ye Mingyu's face blanched as she started hearing whispers around them. As she glanced around her, she noticed the ridicule in everyone's eyes. Su Xiaofei's words reminded everyone of the recent news about Mo Yuchen's personal life.
Wasn't it obvious that Su Xiaofei was the one who started it? So why were they ganging up against her now? Because of Su Xiaofei, she had become a laughingstock in public. The hatred she had for Su Xiaofei twined painfully in her heart.
"President Su, I have nothing against you. Didn't you say that you can't accept me as your sister? I respected your decision, but you don't have to bully me like this." As if on cue, Ye Mingyu's tears roll down her face, giving her a pitiful look in front of everyone.
Those who overheard what she had just said couldn't help but blurt out in surprise. This was a sudden plot twist they hadn't anticipated between the new president of Bluemedia and the newbie actress, Ye Mingyu. It was massive news that would suddenly spread in the news in just a span of one hour.
Su Xiaofei arched a slender brow at Ye Mingyu's answer, thinking that it took Ye Mingyu a long time to use this card against her. Was she keeping it as a triumph card she could use in the future instead?
She found it ridiculous that Ye Mingyu was still trying to provoke her using this information. In her previous life, she used to hate it whenever Ye Mingyu acknowledged her as her sister in front of everyone, leading to them being compared to each other.
"Then, does Miss Ye think that I'm being unreasonable for doing so? I've been trying to keep my distance from you for your own sake. Miss Ye, do you really want everyone to know who you are in my family's life? You and your mother came out of the blue, asking my Mama to take you in the family because your mother is dying? I heard she's already dead. It must have been hard not being able to come home to bury her remains."
As she said these, many speculation started to arise from it, questioning Ye Mingyu's morals and why Su Xiaofei refused to acknowledge her as her sibling. However, considering the rumors circulating around about Ye Mingyu being Mo Yuchen's new lover, it shouldn't be surprising that President Su didn't want anything to do with her.
What kind of daughter was Ye Mingyu if she couldn't even bother to come home to see her own mother during the remaining days of her life?
At Su Xiaofei's words, Ye Mingyu's eyes flashed with hatred. She clenched her fists on her sides, nails digging painfully into her palm.
How dare Su Xiaofei throw such insensitive words in her face?! The resentment in her grew and all of this was because of Su Xiaofei. If there was no Su Xiaofei in her life, perhaps she would be happier.
She wouldn't lose her mother three years ago, had her previous plans worked out. While it was true that her mother was able to get treatments early, the financial burden it left on their family was enough to send her mother into depression.
Of course, Su Xiaofei was aware of this. However, she also knew that the real reason Ye Xing passed away, despite her recovery, was because Ye Mingyu had abandoned her. With Su Haoran being convicted and sent behind bars, Ye Xing was left to fend on her own while her only daughter left the country to pursue her studies.
Su Xiaofei could never understand how Ye Mingyu was able to do it to her own mother, when the thought of her being parted with Yun Qingrong in the future was enough to twist her guts painfully.
She lowered her gaze, realizing that her viciousness and arrogance were no match against Ye Mingyu at all. Thankfully, she was able to wake from her mistakes and was given a chance to rectify it.
"Anyway, I didn't come here to argue with you. We came here for the audition. Now, if you'll excuse us." Su Xiaofei said as she walked past Ye Mingyu, leaving the latter in a trance.
Since things had turned out this way between them, Su Xiaofei decided to see how it would end this time. She would make sure that the one who would be left with nothing wasn't her, but Ye Mingyu instead.
It was pointless to reason out with someone who turned a deaf ear to her explanation. Actually, it would have been better for Ye Mingyu to stay away from her rather than continuously trying to provoke her like this.
Su Xiaofei would have considered letting go of her resentment had Ye Mingyu not constantly tried to undermine her every time they met. If she had a good head over her shoulder, Ye Mingyu should have realized it by now.
Were all of these really necessary for Ye Mingyu? Couldn't she rely on her own talent and skills to attain her goals, without stepping on someone else to make herself look better?
Xiao Rufeng glanced at Ye Mingyu, thinking how foolish the latter was for even trying to provoke Su Xiaofei in public. She now understood why Su Xiaofei kept reminding her that not all battles were worth fighting. One needed to know when to stop, lest one would end up ruining oneself.
Seeing Ye Mingyu reminded Xiao Rufeng of her own younger sister, who had also been trying to get on her nerves for the past years. Maybe she should follow Su Xiaofei's ways and ignore Xiao Yunyao's provocation.
If she could be at least as confident and as fierce as her manager, perhaps her own father wouldn't look down on her chosen profession.
