Out of control and sinking

Chapter 137 Oh, isn't this Li Xin?
Hearing Li Xin's sarcastic remarks, the assistant's expression immediately changed.

Turning to look at Jiang Ruan, I saw her calmly scrolling through her phone screen, completely unaffected by Li Xin's words.

Jiang Ruan swiped her phone a few more times before turning it off. She smiled brightly at Li Xin and mimicked her tone, "Oh, isn't this Li Xin?"

"I really didn't expect to see you here. What's wrong with a public dressing room? No matter where you are, isn't the whole point to put on makeup?"

He directly and bluntly retorted with his words.

Looking at Li Xin's dress, Jiang Ruan rested her chin on her wrist, clicked her tongue twice, and gave her an ambiguous look.

“Dressed so conservatively, Li Xin, this is not like your usual style.”

As she was being scrutinized, Li Xin suddenly felt nervous. She retorted defiantly, "What do you know? This is the most popular style this year, French style, don't you understand?"

"Oh~" Jiang Ruan smiled and said, "I see."

She pinched the exposed shoulder, as if deliberately trying to disgust Li Xin, and said, "If you hadn't said anything, I would have thought you were injured and dressed like this because you were embarrassed to let people see. You know, when I saw you before, you were always showing your waist, your legs, or everything."

Jiang Ruan said with surprise, "I'm not used to seeing you dressed so conservatively all of a sudden."

Li Xin was so angry that she almost vomited up her leftover dinner from last night.

She gritted her teeth, suppressing her anger: "I never expected you to care about me so much, even about my outfits. I'm truly flattered."

Li Xin walked over and, in a low voice only the two of them could hear, pressed Jiang Ruan, "Where did Fang Cui go? Did you deliberately hide her?"

Jiang Ruan raised an eyebrow and scoffed, "That's hilarious. How would I know where she went? I'm not even close to her."

"Why would I hide her for no reason?"

Li Xin said coldly, "You know it in your heart."

"Jiang Ruan, you're just afraid, aren't you? Afraid that she'll ruin everything you've worked so hard to build. Don't let me find any fault with you, or I won't let you off the hook."

Faced with the aggressive questioning, Jiang Ruan's tone turned cold: "I am indeed afraid, especially afraid of someone like you who says one thing to someone's face and another behind their back."

"Li Xin, I don't think I've ever offended you in any way, so why do you keep hurting me?" "When did I ever hurt you?"

"Jiang Ruan, don't make false accusations."

Li Xin was panicking inside, but she remained stubbornly defiant, saying, "If you're so capable, produce the evidence. Otherwise, you have no right to accuse me of harming you."

"Besides, isn't that how the entertainment industry is supposed to be?"

"Jiang Ruan, I just don't accept it. How did you, a country girl from the countryside, manage to climb to this position?"

"Your fans must be blind."

Hearing the resentment and hatred in her tone, Jiang Ruan calmed down.

A bright smile appeared on her face.

"Yeah, so what, are you jealous?"

"They'd rather be blind and like me than someone like you, do you know why?"

"Because the eyes of the masses are discerning, and because you have bad character."

"Li Xin, do you know why I've been able to climb to where I am today?"

"It's because I've met too many people like you with vicious hearts, always thinking of harming others for their own benefit, that I've come to understand a principle: you shouldn't be soft-hearted towards people like you. The more jealous you are of me and the more you want to harm me, the more I will try my best to trample you under my feet."

"I'll make sure that someone as despicable and unscrupulous as you stays under my wing for the rest of your life."

"What people do is seen by Heaven; retribution may be delayed, but it will come sooner."

"Li Xin, you've done so many bad things, aren't you afraid of retribution?"
