Chapter 58 - A setup

Just as the glass was about to touch her lips, it slipped from Zhao Liying hands, hit the floor and smashed into pieces. Luckily the place where they were standing, was not crowded and the music was still on in the background so no one noticed.

"I’m so sorry" Zhao Liying stepped back with wide eyes.

Yang Mi looked like she was about to cry. She had used up all the drug given by Su Lanfen manager and put it on that glass. With a face full of helplessness and despair, she walked away without even looking at Zhao Liying. Under the desperation, she shed the mask of kindness.

"You could have just declined the drink."

"That would have been impolite." Zhao Liying grinned and followed behind Yang Mi. With an amused face, Jing Lihua’s also followed her out of the Hall. At a distance, Zhao Liying caught up Yang Mi.

"Yang Mi, you made the right decision" Zhao Liying stopped her.

"Huh...?"

"I know they have been hard on you. But trust me I’ll never let Su Lanfen company hurt you. You have proven your worth to us to put your safety aside for the sake of me and my company and went into their territory. Our company will never forget your sacrifice and provide you with the best compensation." With sheer sincerity in her eyes, Zhao Liying said those words and left Yang Mi befuddled. Her acting was top notch. Yang Mi, who was already at the brink of a nervous breakdown, could not possibly understand Zhao Liying’s intentions.

But standing at a distance, Jing Lihua understood all. Because not far from them was one of the Su Lanfen company spies. He quickly conveyed those words to Su Lanfen’s manager. Su Lanfen’s manager went red with anger. "Yang Mi!" She roared, gathered a few men and marched to catch Yang Mi.

Yang Mi was was on her way to flee after realizing there was no way she could stop Zhao Liying. Yang Mi was paid well as Zhao Liying makeup artist. But when she saw Zhao Liying rolling in money and enjoying such a famed status, she could not stop the envy from appearing in her heart. Over the years, this envy acc.u.mulated into deep hatred and resentment. So when Su Lanfen had contacted her with such a glorious offer, her heart was filled with joy.

At first, she didn’t want to betray Zhao Liying. After all, Zhao Liying always treated her like a sister. But later, her greed won. So what if Zhao Lying treated her good? She could never be in the same status as her. She was just a mere artist. So she accepted. First, they asked to do small things. In fact, Zhao Liying’s scandal was also made possible with her help.

Later they asked for big things. Yang Mi was afraid that she might get caught so she refused. But they started to blackmail her. So after increasing the amount of money for the dirt jobs, she started to provide inside information on Zhao Liying.

"F.u.c.k it. Open up!" With trembling fingers, Yang Mi tried to pen up her car door. But just the next moment, she was surrounded by a group of men.

"Yang Mi I’ve to admit. I admire you. To be able to have fooled me for so long. So you have been with them all the time. But in the end, you made a mistake... You assumed you could keep fooling me forever. And the bigger mistake to think that they could protect you from us."

"W-What..."

"Grab her."

A couple of men put a black cloth over her mouth and put her into a black van.

"W-Wait! Listen to me. I didn’t know. W-Wait..." She was reminded of Zhao Liying’s words that she couldn’t understand at first. Now she understood. She set her up. F.u.c.k that bitch!

She was over.

...

Zhao Liying walked back to Jing Lihua. Her best friend was evil.

"When did you know?" Zhao Liying followed her back into the Hall.

"After you warned my manager, he ran an investigation. We have already been suspicious of her." Zhao Liying looked a little sad. But it was replaced with anger and evilness. Zhao Liying wasn’t the one to spare her enemies. "She was not the only one they bought up. Thankfully after your warning, my manager - he dealt with them all."

"You sound very proud of him"

"You must have mistaken. Why would I sound proud of that old man?" Thought Zhao Liying said that there were sparks of admiration in her eyes.

When they re-entered the Hall, the host was on the stage vehemently introducing the chief guest of the fashion show. Everyone was as quiet as an inanimate statue and an overwhelming coldness dominated the surroundings. All the heads were turned towards the stage to get a glimpse of the rumored ’Devil’ of Hong Kong.

Jing Lihua raised her head to look up at the stage.
