Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess

Chapter 266: Selena Tang (15) <2-in-1>

If there was one thing Jiang Li was not wrong about, it was that the woman could easily remember things and was to recall them with almost impossible clarity.

After the collision, her head then cleared. Selena Tang promptly realized that she had seen him for a few more times. At the entrance, at the staircase, in front of the large private room booked by the director shooting her script, and here, near his cousin's table. No, he seemed to be also with her and her assistant in the elevator!

As said, once is happenstance, twice is a coincidence, and thrice is enemy action. There was no fourth, or fifth In the woman's mind, the guy before her was her enemy! Starting that day!

What a shameless rogue!

His intention was obvious to her the moment she realized he had been tailing her since she arrived in the place.

Want to hit on her? Going as far as to collide with her so he could get her number? If so, then don't blame her for giving him a fake number! In her imagination, she was already anticipating him calling it countless times once he was at home or somewhere private.

But who would have thought the man would call the given digits right away? How paranoid was he? At that time, there were so many people around, spectating the matter between them.

'The worst part is how that shameless man announced it to the whole place and put the machine reply on a loudspeaker!' Selena gritted her teeth.

That day, the woman who became red-faced from shame and anger had no choice but give a hardly convincing reason why she inputted the wrong number on his phone. While she was changing everything in the saved contact, she claimed loudly that she only mistyped one digit.

It had been a very embarrassing scene. Especially since the whole time, she was desperately praying for the annoying man not to expose her again. How did her enemy respond?

Probably in her entire life, she wouldn't ever forget the kind of smile the weird blue-haired guy had on his face as he watched her performance. It got on her nerves so badly! It was that irritating!

She didn't know how she returned the damn phone to him. But she remembered lashing out on her cousin, giving Tang Jingyi a fierce glare and making him follow her back home just so she could divert the attention of the masses and march out of the place with a bit regained poise.

A day later

"Jiang Li. A popular online singer your cousin Tang Jingyi wants to pull under the Starlight's banner. He's really sought after by many companies and music labels. Even if he can't be a music artist, he can be a music producer or composer. A talent per se" reported the female assistant whose notable features were her short hair and mole under her chin.

The way the young woman spoke was quite monotonous, giving the impression that what she read was not that extraordinary.

Selena Tang's cold eyes went to her. She was silent for a long while as she contemplated something. After a full minute, she asked, "How about other details? Where did he come from? Background? Is he from a notable family?"

The short-haired woman shook her head. "Don't worry Miss Tang. Even though we have no information about where he comes from, it's evident that he's not from any affluent clan nor has strong backing. There's no upper-class family or anybody with influence and power with the last name Jiang"

"I see." Selena Tang slightly narrowed her eyes and tapped her fingers on the mahogany desk.

After watching her boss' expression for a couple of seconds, the assistant continued, "However, he seems to be in a good financial situation since he could travel around frequently and he has a bit of friendship with the CEO of Starlight who is also the best friend of your cousin. He is also seen frequently with the great contemporarily painter Jing who has founded a gallery of his own, and the male supermodel Dwight who has remained number one in the global male supermodel rankings for more than a year."

"There are also some others included in his circle of friends. While the rest are not worthy of being mentioned, one of them seems to be the man from the Fang family who is pursuing Tang Yu Yan."

The beautiful elite woman frowned at the mention of the name. Her gaze darkened and the air surrounding her became more spine-chilling. "Somebody pursuing Tang Yu Yan, huh?"

Tang family was an old aristocratic family with both wealth and history, thus making them one of the few great families in China. However, just like every family, theirs were also plagued with controversies and dramas. In the Tang family's case it was literally a drama.

Her parents, for an unclear reason, ended up in a public hospital in some remote place when her biological mother gave birth to her. There was another person who gave birth at the same time as her.

When this whoever saw that the two babies had been put near each other and that there was no nurse nearby, evil ideas got into her brain and exchanged the two babies. The result was also an exchange of lives between the two. One of them, the fake princess, grew up in a very affluent household. She was loved by her 'parents' and given all the riches in the world. On the other hand, the real princess lived with a poor family who treated her badly until she reached college.

Something happened which caused this fake princess to need some blood transfusion when she was eighteen years old. When the parents volunteered, they then found out the blood did not match.

It was unknown why it took so long for them to do this test and discover the truth, but at least it was finally revealed that the girl they raised for nineteen years was not their biological child.

The parents looked for their real princess. Yet when they found her, even though they took joy in discovering she was a genius and an accomplished woman, the poverty and harshness of life had already shaped her personality into being cold. She neither adored them or clung to them for love or pampering.  

The awkwardness at finding that the real princess made the parents decide to keep the fake. Anyway, in their eyes, this fake, Tang Yu Yan, was still somebody they raised and loved for years and was as good as a biological daughter. The two girls could simply get along and treat each other like real siblings. That shouldn't be hard, no? They also heard the other family was very bad. How could they be willing to leave her in their hands?

And so began the weird state of things in the Tang Household. Tang Yue became disgruntled at the fact that the daughter of the people who mistreated her and gave her a bad childhood and teenage years, could live good days in her biological parents' mansion. It was hard for her to accept that all these years, what she should get went to this Tang Yu Yan. But even when she returned, what should solely belong to her still had to be split in half with this other girl.

The Tangs did not pursue the Hai family because they were the fake's original household?

The sufferings she went through could be dismissed just like that?

Hah... Tang Yu Yan was not even innocent and was somebody always framing her and painting her black to everyone in and out of the mansion. She was sure the other did so to highlight how good, nice, and well-bred she was. Was the fake that afraid of leaving the riches of the Tangs? Why should she tolerate her?

The reply given to her by her parents was quite heartbreaking. Tang Yu Yan, no matter how one turns the world around, was still a daughter who grew up with them. It was a very eccentric answer.

The woman's heart turned cold, realizing her biological parents were not people she should rely on. Hence she chose to distance herself from her parents who seemed to have some pits in their brains.

By using her wits and resources, she managed to send herself abroad where she studied everything related to writing and succeeded in being a notable script and drama writer. That was also where he got the name Selena, which was synonymous with her real first name yue, the moon.

Yesterday was the first day she was back in the country. As expected, the people who luckily got the chance to direct the script of a multi-awarded young writer received her warmly in an audition held near the airport where she first landed.  However, the good things ended with the usual pleasantries and compliments received. The rest of the day had not been a very pleasant experience.

The twenty-seven-year-old woman grunted. Whether it be the annoying man or that fake, the mention of their names could easily make her mood so low.

"Miss Tang, I've just confirmed that Tang Yu Yan's pursuer is Wen Hui, the son of the city mayor, Wen De."

After taking a few sips of water and then placing down the tumbler on the table in her office, she asked the assistant, "Isn't that fake sister of mine already in a relationship with that actor Liu De? I heard of the news just a week ago."

"It's not officially confirmed."

Selena boredly scanned the page in front of her. It was a part of the earliest act in her script. "Continue telling about that annoying singer then."

The other girl obeyed. However, the amount of information about the man was just too little, maybe because he was not truly one of the most popular people in the country. Heck, he did not even have a wiki or Baidu page.

In the end, the woman lost interest and simply said, "I heard enough. I decided. Tell my cousin, he can forget about signing Jiang Li."

" Are we going to block him?" The girl's question was because the Tang heiress had the power and the means to do this. Yet for some reason, although the younger lady thought the man was not someone good, it was still excessive to kill his career for a simple grudge.

"No. Why would I?" Selena Tang emotionlessly replied. "Stop asking questions and just do what I said. Also, the script needs somebody with mature stature and face and bluish hair, right? Call that Jiang Li on my behalf and tell him the role is his."

As the creator of the story who was quite acclaimed in the industry due to her accomplishment abroad, Selena naturally had the right to select some of the screenplay's characters. The short-haired woman naturally knew this. However, she expressed disapproval. "Miss that will be inappropriate!"

"I simply want to reciprocate the favor. I don't think dry-cleaning will be enough." The frost in her tone and eyes were subtly hidden when the woman replied.

The assistant's voice trailed off weakly, " But he is a singer and hasn't done any acting related things He has not been in the audition. If he gets that role that easily wouldn't that be too easy"

"Hmmm."

Selena lowered her head and went back to reading her work to double-check what should be improved. Her free hand subconsciously reached out to the cup on her right side. The other girl despite feeling uneasy, she professionally and wordlessly poured tea into it.

"That man called this morning so you should still have his logs. Inform him of my decision."

"Miss"

'Earlier her question about blocking him has a hint of disapproval. And now that I want to include him in my film, she's still showing disapproval. It must be tiring having a contradictory brain.' She rolled her eyes. 

She knew what the other wanted to say, concerned that the film would have an imperfect element due to this Jiang Li.

But without the assistant's knowledge, that was actually what the woman was aiming for.

Like said earlier, the man was now her enemy. And should be taught some lessons for embarrassing her yesterday.

So she placidly raised her sight at the young lady and said authoritatively, "Do it now."
