"Have you forgotten how to speak? Who are you to her?"
Facing Ruan's questioning, Lisa looked down and said nothing. Still, her shoulders were pulled back and she was standing straight; she was not ashamed.
She was always like this. Ruan really hated it, and there was a trace of disgust in her eyes.
Even when she didn't have any backing, she would look proud and tall without exception. It was as if there were mud below her feet, and if she looked down it would stain her icy clear eyes.
Technically, Ruan was Lisa's agent, and now that Lisa had received the title of Best Actress, her value had increased even more. Ruan shouldn't have had such an attitude, but she couldn't help being angry when she saw Lisa.
She, who had sold herself, who knew how she was getting toyed with in private.
What kind of person was she to pretend to be clear as ice and pure as jade in front of her?
"You are so reluctant to part, do you miss Jennie's skills in bed that much?" She stood up, walked over, and leaned close to Lisa's ears, breathing coldly like a poisonous snake.
Said viciously, "It was great, wasn't it?"
Lisa suddenly clenched her fists with both hands and looked up at her angrily, with her jaw clenched shut.
"Mad at what I said?" Ruan smiled lightly, she extended her hand to caress Lisa's face, but Lisa evaded her advances, and Ruan ended up petting nothing.
"You--" Ruan was furious. She raised her hand high, but it fell halfway, unable to move.
A white hand was firmly grasping her wrist.
Lisa looked thin, but because she was diligent in fitness, her hands were by no means weak.
Not to mention that Ruan was already over forty and spent most of her days sitting in an office. Her limbs were not working, and the difference in strength between the two women was clear.
Ruan tried to twist her wrist free, but she could not. She glared at her, "Let go!"
Lisa gazed at her coldly. This expression again.
Ruan remembered back when she first signed Lisa, there was a social event, and other newcomers were attending, not just the ones from their company.
At the wine table were men with big flopping stomachs, for whom the shrewd managers all ordered their own artists to pour wine.
Fighting their way into this industry, who doesn't have two faces?
No matter how disgusting these men are, the artists still have to pretend to humor them.
At the banquet table, the artists just waved, conversed, and coaxed those fat, ugly men to laugh.
Lisa was born with a beautiful face and appearance, considered especially gorgeous even within the entertainment circle. Beyond that, she also had an innate noble temperament.
On this special occasion, she was like a princess fallen from grace, which particularly roused other people's urge to meddle with her.
There was a round man with hot eyes, who, ignoring the two beautiful female entertainers beside him, had only been staring at Lisa.
To this Lisa turned a blind eye. The man smiled and called Ruan over, asking for Lisa's name. He had implied something along the lines of--if Lisa was willing to go home with him, everything would be easy to negotiate.
