The Movie Queen's Mouth is Blessed - Chapter 47

After some thought, Jiang Xiaobai finally remembered something.

“Oh, I heard about you at Wei Bo’s birthday celebration. You mentioned Wei Shaoye…”

Jiang Xiaobai said, looking Li Wei over.

Li Wei felt a headache coming on. “Just heard about me?? I was there that day with the Liu and Zhang family daughters!”

Jiang Xiaobai blinked. “Oh, is that so.”

She said it, but she clearly had no memory of it.

The original owner’s memories didn’t include much about that day because her focus was elsewhere, and she hadn’t paid attention to who was at the birthday banquet.

Li Wei felt she might die of frustration if they continued discussing this topic. She took a deep breath, trying to regain her composure, and changed the subject. “You still have the nerve to mention Shaoye! You hurt him so badly. Don’t you feel guilty at all?”

Wei Shaoye…

Mentioning this name, Jiang Xiaobai felt a sense of regret.

This was a debt from the original owner’s past.

“I never toyed with his feelings. I always refused him clearly and never gave him false hope. Besides, our engagement is no longer valid. Isn’t this your chance? Why are you so angry?”

Jiang Xiaobai asked.

Wei Shaoye was once the original owner’s fiancé, a verbal engagement set by their parents when they were young. They grew up together, and Wei Shaoye always saw the original owner as his future wife. However, the original owner had no feelings for him.

She had always wanted to break the engagement and told Wei Shaoye outright. Still, he believed she was cold and would eventually see his worth. He was willing to wait.

The original owner insisted, “I’m sorry, but I don’t want you to wait. No matter how long you wait, I will never like you.”

Wei Shaoye never gave up, but the original owner was resilient. Finally, on his father’s birthday, she clarified everything in front of the elders, leaving no room for reversal.

The parents of both families were helpless but knew they couldn’t force such a matter, so they canceled the engagement.

However, Wei Shaoye was profoundly hurt and went abroad to heal and clear his mind. He even fell ill at one point.

“Of course, I’m angry! I genuinely like him, and seeing him in pain makes me miserable!”

Li Wei was angry and felt a bit wronged.

What was wrong with her? In terms of background, she was the daughter of Hongye Film & TV. In terms of appearance, she was top-notch. In terms of education and knowledge, she was excellent. She had been caring and attentive to Wei Shaoye for years, far gentler than the ice-cold Jiang Xiaobai. Yet, Wei Shaoye, the blind fool, only had eyes for Jiang Xiaobai!

It infuriated her!

“If you like him, go for it. Cheer up, I support you!” Jiang Xiaobai clenched her fist to encourage her. “The more vulnerable he is now, the better your chances. Don’t be afraid, go for it! If it doesn’t work, you can always cook the rice before it’s done or force your way in. He and his parents are very responsible; if you get pregnant, they’ll definitely make you marry!”

Li Wei tilted her head, thinking about it, and actually felt—

That’s a good point!

Yes, since the birthday, Wei Shaoye had been very depressed, often drinking alone. If she found a good opportunity to offer herself and successfully got pregnant…

Wait, stop!

Li Wei returned to reality, her face red with embarrassment and indignation. “Jiang Xiaobai, what are you saying!”

She was a dignified daughter of the Li family; she couldn’t just throw herself at someone like that!

No, absolutely not. If she had to get pregnant, it would have to be because Wei Shaoye took the initiative…

“I’m serious. You know him best. Now that he’s given up on me, he’ll gradually see your good qualities. So, stay strong and keep going!”

Jiang Xiaobai encouraged her again.

Li Wei listened and found it very reasonable. She nodded thoughtfully and said, “If I succeed, I’ll treat you to a meal!”

“I want the Platinum Feast at Drunken Beauty Manor.” Jiang Xiaobai immediately set her condition.

The Platinum Feast cost six figures and was a limited, reservation-only event.

“No problem.”

Li Wei waved her hand generously.

They talked naturally, then looked at each other, feeling the atmosphere was a bit…

Strange.

Wait, didn’t she come to confront Jiang Xiaobai? How did she end up promising a meal?

But now that the friendly conversation was over, it seemed out of place to get angry.

“That, do you really have no interest in Wei Shaoye?”

Li Wei cleared her throat and looked at Jiang Xiaobai doubtfully.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled faintly.!!)

“If we were officially engaged, and I had any interest in him, why would I break the engagement?”

“That’s true… But what if you realize you still like him and want to return after leaving him?”

“No, I only want to become a major star. Men are just passing clouds.”

Jiang Xiaobai said confidently.

She really wasn’t interested in romance. In her past life, she loved studying talismans. She found the vast world within them captivating, earning her the nickname “Talisman Freak.”

In this life, while the lack of spiritual energy prevented her from using most talismans, the original owner’s sole wish was to become famous. Jiang Xiaobai found the entertainment industry intriguing and was willing to work hard to achieve the original owner’s dream.

Romance was too complicated and time-consuming. She preferred to avoid it.

Li Wei felt reassured by this.

Indeed, Jiang Xiaobai had an inexplicable obsession with the entertainment industry. Despite the Jiang family’s wealth and business, she defied her family to enter this chaotic world.

Li Wei had heard that the Jiang family was furious about her entering the entertainment industry and breaking the engagement with Wei Shaoye. They were in a cold war, and the Jiang family had even told their acquaintances not to help her.

Otherwise, with the influence of the Jiang family, many people would be willing to support Jiang Xiaobai, and she wouldn’t have remained a minor actress for years.

“Alright, I believe you. Don’t lie to me, or I’ll have Tangming blacklist and bury you!” Li Wei said threateningly.

“Oh, if I can’t enter the industry, I might get discouraged and want to go home and get married. To whom… thinking about it, Wei Shaoye seems the most familiar. How about it…”

Jiang Xiaobai rubbed her chin thoughtfully.

Li Wei immediately became agitated. “No, you can’t!”

“Still planning to blacklist me?”

“No, no, I was just joking. You work so hard; how could I bear to do that? Hehe…”

Li Wei laughed awkwardly.
