Reborn to enter the entertainment industry, the licking dog ex-husband rolls aside

"I eat Zihaiguo for midnight snacks, and I eat Zihaiguo when I work overtime... Zihaiguo, Zihaiguo, I eat Zihaiguo when I'm alone..."

The weird advertisement instantly interrupted the exciting plot, which made the family of three at the dining table come back to their senses.

Xia Wan'er's hand holding the chopsticks was trembling slightly, and her breathing was a little short.

She had never watched any of Xia Qingluo's dramas, and she was disdainful of watching them, but in just fifteen minutes, she accidentally became fascinated by them.

Xia Wan'er picked up the ribs on the table and stuffed them into her mouth, only to find that the dish was already cold.

Xia Pei's hands gradually clenched, his knuckles turned white due to the force, and the chopsticks seemed like they would break in his hands at any time.

In her spare time, Xia Pei also pays attention to the developments in the entertainment industry and looks at hot searches.

He knew that Lin Bingyan in "Prosperity If Dream" had great acting skills, and the whole network was guessing Lin Bingyan's identity.

This role should have originally belonged to Xia Wan'er, and Xia Pei was unhappy that Xia Wan'er missed this opportunity to become famous.

If Lin Bingyan was played by someone else, he might not have been so annoyed.

But the role of the second female lead was given to Xia Qingluo.

With a crisp "pa" sound, Xia Pei put down his chopsticks and glared at Xia Wan'er, "Why did you quit the crew? Why did you give up such a good role?"

Xia Wan'er's voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum. "The crew was about to go bankrupt at that time... and Li Zhi was a big director..."

But before she could finish her words, Xia Pei's slap had already landed hard on her face.

Before Xia Wan'er finished speaking, Xia Pei slapped her in the face and shouted coldly:

"But Xia Qingluo's acting is better than yours. 'Prosperity Like a Dream' is more exciting than 'The Flower Shadow Plan'. Before you choose a play, don't you know to read the script?"

"I worked so hard to raise you. I provided you with so many resources in the entertainment industry. I even asked your company to help suppress Xia Qingluo. But you can't even beat Xia Qingluo?"

Xia Wan'er was knocked to the ground by the sudden blow. She covered her swollen cheeks with her hands, tears flashing in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let the tears fall.

She gritted her teeth, her face full of dissatisfaction, "Xia Qingluo climbed up the career ladder by clinging to Young Master Lu. I don't want to be the kind of person who relies on men. You don't want me to seduce men like Xia Qingluo, do you?"

Xia Pei's face turned red with anger. After hearing this, he felt a little better. He finally saw that Xia Wan'er was better than Xia Qingluo.

My father always emphasized that as a family with a history of a hundred years, the Xia family had its own integrity. What were those so-called wealthy families? The Xia family had always disdained to cling to others.

Xia Pei sat down slowly, tried to calm down, and changed the subject, "I heard from your agent that you auditioned for the movie directed by Shang Jiaqi today. Did you get the leading role?"

Xia Wan'er trembled and said, "No...no."

"Director Shang's actions are unique. No one can guess what he wants to do. Even well-known first-line actresses may not be able to get the role of his heroine. I have tried my best."

Xia Pei took a deep breath, trying his best to suppress the anger that was rising in his heart again, and asked again: "Who got the role in the end?"

Xia Wan'er didn't dare to lie, because after the role was decided, the final makeup photos would probably be released in a few days. She could only answer tremblingly, "Xia...Xia Qingluo."

"Pa!" Xia Pei slapped Xia Wan'er on the other half of her face again.

Xia Wan'er was beaten so hard that her brain went blank, as if the whole world was spinning.

Xia Wan'er's mother, Kong **, knelt on the ground, holding Xia Pei's clothes tightly with both hands, "Wan'er has worked hard enough, but who knew that Xia Qingluo's acting skills would suddenly become so good..."

"Acting, acting, acting!" Xia Pei's eyes widened as he shouted, "Xia Wan'er's only advantage before was that her acting was better than Xia Qingluo's. Now this only advantage has been surpassed!"

Xia Pei glanced fiercely at Xia Wan'er again, "Your grandfather is always talking about wanting your eldest brother to return home. Maybe he wants to hand over the Xia family's assets to them."

"At this critical moment, you still don't show some excellence and make grandpa happy, but you are suppressed by Xia Qingluo!"

Kong** continued cautiously: "It's okay, we can just find a heroine role for Wan'er later, she will become famous..."

Xia Pei said coldly, "How can the heroines of other dramas be as good as those in the movies directed by Shang Jiaqi? Xia Qingluo only made one good drama and successfully squeezed into the film industry. Xia Wan'er hasn't even made a movie yet. If anyone knows about this, it will bring shame to our family!"

While Kong ** was persuading her in a low voice, he quickly gave Xia Wan'er a look that told her to leave quickly.

Xia Wan'er's face was covered with tears. She turned around and ran back to her room, then locked the door with a bang.

However, the thick wooden door could not block out the sounds from outside.

The sounds of things being thrown, crying, and begging for mercy kept coming through the door.

Xia Pei grabbed Kong **'s hair and slammed her head against the wall, cursing how useless her daughter was.

The TV commercials had ended, and the TV series "Prosperity Like a Dream" started playing again. The plot was originally very exciting, but now no one was paying attention to it.

The sound from the TV contrasted sharply with the scenes full of violence and pain.

Kong **'s crying and pleading seemed so weak amid Xia Pei's roar, and her body trembled helplessly under Xia Pei's hands.

In the room, Xia Wan'er's tears were like beads that had broken off the string, sliding down her cheeks continuously and wetting her clothes like beads that had broken off the string.

When did the change begin?

Why have things come to this point now?

In the past, she was a popular young actress, a talented actress, and a heroine who would never follow unspoken rules.

Xia Qingluo is just an unknown actor with poor acting skills. He got all the roles by relying on financial sponsors. Whenever Xia Qingluo is mentioned on the Internet, people all look disgusted and disdainful.

But now the situation has reversed.

Although she was not ridiculed by the crowd and did not become an unknown celebrity, Xia Qingluo's brilliance had completely overshadowed her.

She and Xia Qingluo are artists from the same company. People on the Internet often compare them. As long as Xia Qingluo is better than her, she will never get ahead.

Xia Wan'er couldn't help but start to miss the old Xia Qingluo.

How good Xia Qingluo was at that time. If she was a little bit nice to Xia Qingluo, Xia Qingluo would give her whole heart to her. He was a real naive and innocent girl.

Why has Xia Qingluo become like this now?

Xia Wan'er crawled weakly to the desk and took out a black business card from the drawer.

The business card was a beautiful black and gold thing with no words on it except a phone number.

It represents an opportunity, but also a huge gamble.

Xia Wan'er knew that the big man behind this phone number had the power to change her fate, but the price would be much greater than sleeping with those investors and directors.

This is a deal with the devil, there is no turning back.

Xia Wan'er didn't know what she had to offer, but now, she had no choice.

She wants to become a movie queen and shine brightly in the entertainment industry.

She has to rely on herself to leave this long-deserted Xia family.

She also wanted to take her mother away from her violent father.

Xia Wan'er clenched her fists tightly, then relaxed them, repeating this for ten minutes. After a fierce inner struggle, she finally made up her mind.

She tapped the screen of her phone, opened the dial-up page, and entered the number digit by digit.

Suddenly, a message popped up on the phone.

[Li Zhi: There is a party tonight, at the Mei Ye Bar.]
