Chapter 446 - A Joke
There was a mont of confusion as the crowd looked alternately at the two won who stood up at the sa ti.
It took them a mont before they finally settled their gazes at the nad person.
"Err..." The host was also taken aback for a mont and forgot what to say, but she quickly recovered and continued as if nothing happened. "May we invite Miss Song Xuantin to the stage, please?"
As if soone had pressed on the resu button, everyone continued with what they were doing.
The videographers and photographers took videos and pictures of Song Xuantin while the journalists continued jotting on their notes to write their draft.
Song Xuantin threw a glance at Xiong Wuyue then at Xiong Zhi and finally went up to the stage with a graceful bearing.
No one gave attention to the woman who stood up abruptly.
They thought that perhaps the woman was a fan who was too excited for Miss Song Xuantin that she inadvertently stood up as well. Of course, she might also be simply trying to go to the comfort room at the coincidental ti.
Everyone simply took it as a coincidence.
As everyone continued with what they were doing, the forgotten woman who only took at most two seconds of their attention seed to have her ti paused infinitely.
'What… What is going on?'
'Why is my na not called?'
'Why are all these people ignoring ?'
'Why… Why is it very different from what I expected?'
She was Xiong Wuyue...
She was the Queen of Entertainnt!
She should clearly be the one who gets the role!
Yet Xiong Wuyue was too stunned that she could not move.
As if on slow motion, she stared in disbelief and denial at the person who walked up the stage in front of her.
The world was playing a joke on her.
She probably heard it wrong, and was seeing it wrong!
"I..." She whispered in a trembling voice.
The person closest to her just glanced at her, thinking that she was strange for remaining on a standing position for a long ti. Although at the side, her seat was in front and was also near the stairs to the stage, so standing rooted on the spot was quite noticeable.
However, since it was the main female lead Song Xuantin on the stage, everyone focused their eyes and ears on the dazzling actress instead.
"I... am... Xiong Wuyue..." she continued tremblingly.
Her dull eyes hazily reflected the woman who was briefly being interviewed on the stage regarding her understanding of the role.
"I am honored to be chosen by the directors and the author for the role of the 'Lone Star'. I have read and really loved the book, which is why I auditioned for the role. I can only say, kudos to Mr. Write, it is truly a fascinating novel. As the main female lead, there is a lot complicated emotions in the novel that I read. I will do my best to live up to…"
Xiong Wuyue raged at the word 'chosen' and no longer heard the rest of the speech.
What a joke!
That diocre woman was chosen and yet she, Xiong Wuyue, wasn't?!
'Don't make laugh!'
"It is mine..." She gritted her teeth.
Why else did she co here for? What about her? What about the promised role? What about getting back to the people who bullied her?! Her revenge?!
A person who had fallen too deep into a hellhole and was given one ray of light would cling to that light. It would beco their only hope in desperation.
However, if that person found out that the ray of light was actually just another empty illusion leading to another hellhole, it would break their hope and their reason.
Why?!
For what reason should that woman stand there and not her?!
She was the entertainnt queen! The role was supposed to be hers! She would not accept it! She couldn't!
Her mind was already in a very fragile state and this provocation caused her whole ntal state to collapse.
Her unwillingness, anger, and grievances turned into a familiar blanket of madness that overwheld her mind.
"...I am... Xiong Wuyue!" She yelled loudly.
The yell was so sudden, but because of the sound reverberating from the central speakers, only the people sitting on the front rows, the host, Song Xuantin as well as a few nearby actors on the stage heard her.
After all, she was near the stage.
They all montarily stopped and looked at her in surprise.
Even the person sitting closest Xiong Wuyue, a manager of another star, was stunned.
What did he just hear? Xiong Wuyue? She was almost unrecognizable.
Who did not know her?
With the resounding scandal of the Xiong family and with her reputation as the forr rising Queen of Entertainnt, everyone in this industry naturally knew her.
But what was she doing here causing trouble?
"It isn't hers! The role is mine! It's mine!"
Xiong Wuyue once more angrily yelled as she pointed to herself.
The person closest to her finally realized that she did not seem to be in a sound state of mind.
At this ti around, the dia located at the back finally noticed that there was sothing wrong.
The noise inside the hall ceased.
When Xiong Wuyue finally got all the attention, she suddenly felt a distorted sense of satisfaction.
Yes. Just look at ! I will not let anyone who wronged go unscathed!
Like a wounded animal in her last fight, she bared her teeth.
"That Song Xuantin, she getting the role is unacceptable! Where did you base it from! It's clear that this whole things is unfair! She is just a rookie who doesn't have much fa. If you plan to give the role to soone experienced and well known, I will understand. But not her! The role is more likely to be mine!" Her loud voice echoed.
Xiong Wuyue was a very willful person who did whatever she wanted.
She could hold in her emotions for a short while, but she needed to be hidden away once she neared the tipping point, because she would definitely explode.
She had always had this anger managent issue and unstable control on her emotions since childhood. This was why Xiong De always made sure to hire the best people to guide and coax her from doing extre things in public.
Sadly, because Xiong Wuyue's manager, personal assistant, and her father were no longer here, no one was present to tell her to calm down and think things through. If they were here, they would do their best to drag Xiong Wuyue away before she had reached her tipping point in order to not hurt her na any further in public.
But unfortunately for her, no one was on her back this ti.
The crowd was taken aback.
The host frowned and looked at the staff stationed at one corner, dissatisfied.
How could she make up for this scene? What was the security doing? She had to step in.
"…To clear up everyone's doubts, I believe for this highly significant film, the directors' decisions were ticulously analyzed considering various factors and also the original author's opinions. As Mr. Write had ntioned earlier, he participated in the audition process to ensure that the candidates who got the roles will match the characters in his book. The author treasures his novel deeply and will naturally choose the best for his creation. I hope everyone understand. This is a fair ga."
The host spoke generously with a magnanimous smile, but inwardly, she was thinking, 'Being the host of this event is really difficult, ah!'
However, the woman below did not appreciate her painstaking efforts.
"Ha! Really? Then why am I called here? It's clear that the role is supposedly mine, yet this woman used underhanded thods to get it in the last minute! What did you do in three days? Sleep with the investors and producers?" The last two sentences were directed to Song Xuantin.
Wah, unbelievable!
The crowd gasped at her rude and shrewish words.
On the other hand, the dia's eyes beca bright after a bit of confusion like a pack of starving wolves spotting a prey.
This was a great material! A very huge bomb! They can already imagine the headlines.
Shocking! Xiong Wuyue's Real Face Exposed! Rising Star Xiong Wuyue Accuses Goddess Song Xuantin of Sleeping Around! Hidden Rules: The Dark Side of Dazzling Show Business!
Amidst the crowd's uproar, Song Xuantin frowned.
She didn't like this Xiong Wuyue's mouth.
However, she did not reply as she knew that soone in the shadows would make this girl's life like a living hell. She could only pity her for now, ah.
Song Xuantin had a magnanimous and helpless smile on her face, but inwardly… 'Seriously, you stiff-faced, plastic bestie! If you're not my best friend, I will break it off with you!'
"What? You cannot spare us the details?" Xiong Wuyue taunted. Her eyes were red. She clearly lost her reason.
"Who is this deranged woman? Security, where are they?" It was Su Lin who got angry, but in front of the caras, she could only control her face and her deanor, quietly asking and signaling at her assistant below.
Any frown, yell, or dissatisfaction in front of public could be distorted into sothing terrible by the dia.
The host already signaled for backup. She also saw the crazed eyes of this woman.
Who knew what this unreasonable woman would do?
*****
Little Stage:
Xiong Zhi watching at the side: Hehe, common' make so scene.
Song Xuantin: You traitor! How dare you use without my consent!
A little later:
Song Xuantin: I bet five bucks that soone will get slapped!
Xiong Zhi: Heh, I bet my whole estate that soone will suffer until they wish they were dead.
Xiao i: No gambling here, please!
