Song Lili looked at her agent, who was pulling two large suitcases, with impatience as they left the airport. She had not had a good night's sleep since leaving Supreme City, and it made it impossible for her to be in a good mood.

How had she fallen so far? She was even rejected by a small-time director.

To the outside world, she was still revered as the beautiful model turned actress who would become a member of the Zhong family.

However, inside the entertainment company, the managerial team and executives looked at her with contempt.

She had thought that threatening Zhong Feng would be enough to let her keep living her lie. However, things were not simple. She could prevent him from exposing everything, but she could never control him.

Her heart filled with bitterness as she remembered the only reason that he had compromised with her. It was to protect that woman with a dark past and a messy head. And she could only imagine how crazy she was. It had only taken her a day to get a video of her out of her mind.

Song Lili clutched her bag tightly. Inside the bag was a small pouch. And inside that pouch was a card with a video that could destroy her nemesis.

When she arrived at the place where the nanny van was parked, she felt disgusted. The vehicle was an old model of a common brand, and she had not been the first person to use it in the company.

Why did she have to bear these conditions?

"Hurry up!" She snapped at the agent.

The other woman looked at her with annoyance. She had long realised that something was not right when the managerial staff had stopped treating her artiste well and giving them resources.

However, she needed this job. Her only hope was that she would find another good artiste and develop them. She had seen a lot in her time in the entertainment industry, and she knew that it was a matter of time before Song Lili was banned.

The driver of the minivan stepped outside and helped her put the heavy suitcases into the trunk. She smiled gratefully. She could not see his face clearly because he had facial hair and a hat. But she felt that the driver was handsome, even though he had some rough edges.

It was strange that she had never seen him before. Maybe he was a new hire.

Her eyes sparkled. Maybe…

Before she could make a pitch, he had walked to the driver's seat and started the engine. The agent could only get in the car with Song Lili. They would talk after they dropped off Song Lili. Maybe she could discover and develop an idol…

Song Lili did not know the thoughts of her agent, but her eyes were filled with a sharp and cruel glint. It was like there was a monster in her, surfacing. She seemed to hesitate for a while before she made a decision.

She took out her phone and dialled a number.

"Auntie Ling!" She said in a soft voice that did not match the cruelty in her eyes.

Chu Ling was not as warm as she used to be. "Song Lili, why are you calling?"

The words were cold and dismissive, but Chu Ling was an aristocratic lady who had learnt the greatest levels of etiquette. These words did not sound as objectionable when coming from her.

Still, Song Lili felt uncomfortable. The older woman had always treated her with affection and love. It felt strange that she was putting distance between them.

It had begun some time ago after the hot searches about her Zhong Feng. She had explained that she had nothing to do with them, but Chu Ling did not seem to believe her.

Following that, the distance had grown. When she called Chu Ling, she would always say that she was busy with one thing or another. Then, a few weeks ago, she had become completely cold. She had told her that it was not right for them to keep in close contact.

After all, Zhong Feng and Hu Lei were married. It would be easy for people to misunderstand.

"Auntie Ling, there is something I have to show you." Song Lili said.

"I am busy in this period. I cannot leave the house easily. There are many matters to handle."

Song Lili knew that Chu Ling was brushing her off. As the Madam of the Zhong family, she did not need to do anything. Since when could she be tied to the house?

"I can come by today if you don't mind." She said in an affable manner.

Chu Ling was ready to brush her off again.

"It concerns Feng'er's safety." She added quickly. "I would not bother you if it was not important."

Chu Ling loved her son fiercely. In the end, she could only accept and allow Song Lili to come to the house.

"Song Lili, do you know what you are doing?" The agent had overhead the conversation.

"You should mind your own business." Song Lili retorted.

"You should know that Zhong Feng is not someone that you can mess with. I don't know how you came to know him, but he is clearly not interested in you." The agent said cruelly.

"How dare you?"

Song Lili wanted to raise her hand to slap the agent, but she felt like her body had no strength. Within moments, both people collapsed. They did not have a moment to understand what had happened.
