Reborn! Caught Up by the Critically Obsessed Actress - Chapter 4

The car interior fell into a brief silence.

Song Qingxing: …

Good, very good!

Is Xie Jingcheng looking down on her beauty?

Playing the underground lover game with someone else, yet not even requiring a roll in the hay, just a kiss—what kind of strange fetish is this?

Well, at least it’s not a job that pays little and causes a lot of trouble.

When she played the wicked stepmother, the director complained her expression wasn’t ferocious or terrifying enough, insisting Song Qingxing act like a vicious tigress, claiming that’s what audiences would buy and that it would make them sympathize with the female lead’s plight.

But in reality, true wealthy socialites wouldn’t be like that; they are always dignified and elegant, conducting business worth hundreds of millions with every gesture.

How could they constantly be baring their teeth?

Like a blue-faced, long-fanged she-demon.

But since the sugar daddy had spoken, Song Qingxing had no choice but to respond, so she forced a smile.

“Whatever.”

“Whenever you want, I’m at your service.”

Song Qingxing just couldn’t stand Xie Jingcheng’s constantly composed demeanor. Except for the brief awkwardness in the room earlier, she had now fully adopted the aura of a superstar film empress.

Song Qingxing suddenly moved closer. Xie Jingcheng had nowhere to retreat, her shoulder pressing against the car door.

Placing one hand on the car door, Song Qingxing delivered a “dominant CEO” style wall-pin.

She reached out with a slender finger to cup Xie Jingcheng’s smooth, delicate chin.

Inside, she couldn’t help but feel smug.

You think you can challenge me?

I’ve lived a few years longer than you, and I am no longer the naive Song Qingxing I once was.

After falling from the top tier, Song Qingxing endured countless insults. Well-known directors would place their greasy hands on her leg.

They would verbally provoke her.

Accompanied by the foul stench of alcohol spewing from their teeth and mouth.

“Qingxing, this is a big investment, a big production. If you really want this role, why don’t you come to my room tonight? I’ll discuss the script with you. If you fit the role in our show, I can find the most suitable one for you.”

Are you kidding me?

That sounds nice, but he actually wants to proposition me.

Song Qingxing couldn’t take it anymore. She slapped the director across the face, then covered her stinging palm and left the noisy restaurant gathering.

The law of action and reaction is mutual.

Song Qingxing’s own palm hurt terribly, and she could only gently massage it.

The slap felt good, but in its place came a prolonged ban from the industry.

“Xie Jingcheng, you better kiss my mouth raw, but don’t even think about taking it a step further.”

After saying the provocative words, Song Qingxing let go and reclined back into the luxurious leather seat of the sedan.

How many years had it been?

It had been a long time since she had ridden in such a high-end luxury car.

It was truly comfortable and pleasant.

Indeed, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to do the reverse.

This time, she could not repeat the stupid mistakes of her previous life.

She closed her eyes to rest.

She was unaware that Xie Jingcheng’s earlobes beside her had quietly turned red.

Had Song Qingxing changed from before?

She had become more passionate and daring.

If she was a thorny red rose before, now Song Qingxing was a fiercely blooming red camellia.

…

The movie they were filming was an art film. When a person is at the peak of their popularity, they should also challenge a career transformation.

Song Qingxing took on this movie to prove her terrible reputation for acting skills, but the outcome, naturally, was not what she expected.

Not only did Song Qingxing fail to prove herself, but she was also ridiculed by netizens, who said she was completely overshadowed by Xie Jingcheng, the film empress.

This enraged Song Qingxing, who simultaneously bit her handkerchief and frantically used her burner account to like comments insulting Xie Jingcheng.

The movie was already nearing its end.

Xie Jingcheng finished the remaining filming ahead of schedule to attend her variety show recordings and promotional activities.

Only Song Qingxing was left alone on set for her scenes.

When Xie Jingcheng dropped Song Qingxing off at the set, she didn’t go inside.

“You go ahead.”

“I’ll probably see you tonight after I finish my promotional activities.”

Being a celebrity is like this: one moment they are in City A, the next they are in City B, thousands of miles away.

Song Qingxing nodded.

After thinking about it, she felt it wasn’t right to keep taking advantage of her.

Since she had decided to become Xie Jingcheng’s secret lover, she should make some kind of contribution.

The two of them were currently leaning against each other outside the filming location. This was a large film studio, and because the art film mainly depicted scenes in the slums,

The film studio had also constructed a very congested and dilapidated slum area here.

Song Qingxing truly admired the director for finding such a place. If it weren’t for her eagerness to film an art house movie to reverse her reputation, Song Qingxing would never have come to this God-forsaken place where she’d get mosquito bites all over her butt just by going to the toilet.

Song Qingxing extended her finger.

Because filming an art film required removing all nail polish, she had taken off all her manicures. Song Qingxing’s nails were pink, with only a small area of a milky white crescent.

Her nails were neatly and roundly trimmed.

“Xie Jingcheng, come here.”

Her words sounded like she was playfully calling a puppy with a “tsk tsk tsk,” but Xie Jingcheng actually listened obediently and leaned over.

Her chin was pinched, and Song Qingxing, who had been fiercely against kissing scenes, now actively leaned in.

It was her first time making a move, and her heart was naturally pounding like a drum, but she couldn’t show weakness. If she backed down, she would be completely manipulated by the sugar daddy.

Song Qingxing’s pink lips puckered slightly.

And kissed Xie Jingcheng’s ear.

Xie Jingcheng’s heart raced, and her neck and cheeks quickly flushed with warmth.

But she didn’t step back; instead, she closed her eyes and enjoyed the moment.

Her fingers trembled, and finally, she slowly wrapped her arms around Song Qingxing’s waist, pulling her forcefully into her embrace.

Xie Jingcheng opened her eyes.

“Song Qingxing, you’ve changed.”

“You were clearly very resistant to me just a few days ago.”

Strange, this is not right.

However, Xie Jingcheng was a staunch materialist and wouldn’t believe in anything supernatural, only assuming that the other party had thought things through.

After all, ever since she was a child,

Just because her surname was Xie, countless people were willing to bow and scrape.

Xie Jingcheng had understood since childhood.

Even if she was just a child, due to the status of her grandfather, father, and mother, there were adults who were willing to flatter and fawn over her.

“Have I?”

“I’ve always been this way.”

Song Qingxing released her, looking at the lipstick mark she had left on the other’s ear, feeling very satisfied.

Only then did she let go and leave.

Now that she had marked her territory, Xie Jingcheng shouldn’t be flirting with anyone else for the time being.

She had only this one major sugar daddy.

She had to hold on tightly to her, because…

Others were either fat-headed and large-eared, or already married. Reality is not as good as in novels, where sugar daddies are all slender-waisted and long-legged,

And deeply in love with you.

Ridiculous.

After the two parted ways, Song Qingxing took her assistant to the set.

The director was not present because Song Qingxing had not cooperated with the filming a few days ago, and the two had a huge argument. Now, it was the assistant director in charge.

The assistant director was shifty-eyed.

His eyes were always lewdly directed at Song Qingxing’s chest, making Song Qingxing want to kick him away.
