Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star
chapter-76

Qiao Xin said suddenly, “You are using juice to toast Director Ye? Do you know how that looks? Everyone uses Maotai or at least red wine. You only brought a glass of juice, you don’t have respect for Director Ye. “

Tang Tu, who was standing on one side, frowned as he spoke up to rebut Qiao Xin, “Liu Man’s a girl, so it’s normal for her not to have a big liquor capacity. Be more forgiving.”

Tang Tu’s rebuttal was exactly what Qiao Xin wanted. He looked at Tang Tu with a malevolent expression, “Isn’t Producer Qiu a woman? Aren’t Qingyu and Huayue women? Isn’t Coco a girl? Why could they drink wine, and Liu Man can’t? Did you mean Liu Man’s different from other women in your mind? Didn’t everyone start with a small liquor capacity? Since you know Liu Man so much, why don’t you purpose this toast for her?”

Tang Tu immediately realized Qiao Xin was directly challenging him on purpose.

When did he turn Qiao Xin into his enemy?

Qiu Jing and Yang Huayue, who were both mentioned, were stunned. They soon realized Qiao Xin was challenging both Liu man and tang Tu. If Tang Tu toasted Ye Zian for Liu Man under everyone’s watch, then people would start suspecting his relationship with Liu Man.

Qiu Jing was just about to say something to ease the situation when Qiao Xin continued, “Producer Qiu, you’ve drunk so much tonight and is getting a bit drunk. We all know you graduated from the same school Tang Tu and Liu Man are in, and you led them both into the circle. Their future depends on themselves, and you can’t always be there for them. How tired would you be if you help them with everything? That way, they will never grow up.”

No wonder Qiao Xin was an experienced member of this circle. His words were smooth, and there were no loopholes to be found. He stopped Qiu Jing from trying to save Tang Tu. Qiu Jing sighed silently, How did Tang Tu manage to turn Qiao Xin into an enemy?

Qiao Xin picked up a clean glass and poured some Maotai. He then handed the glass to Liu Man and used a tone that could coax underage girls, “Toasting Director Ye with this would seem more respectful. Everyone’s done this. It’s just one glass, and it’ll be all right if you drink a bit less.”

This glass of wine was a trap.

If Liu Man toasted Ye Zian with this glass of Maotai, then she had to toast Qiu Jing, Gao Jindong, and everyone else with Maotai. Or else she wouldn’t be giving them face.

Coco was getting very anxious as she stood outside the crowd. Unfortunately, she wasn’t part of the cast and did not have a background, which meant she had no influence whatsoever. She was already grateful enough just because Xue Yunfei invited her over. If she helped Liu Man here, God knew how many enemies she would gain.

Xue Yunfei was helpless, too. He was an independent music businessman and was only a partner to this cast. He had no right to order or stop anyone. Besides, he was allergic to wine and couldn’t even touch it, which was another reason why he could say nothing. Or else people like Qiao Xin would make him drink wine.

Tang Tu was already becoming angry. His hand had formed a fist, and he was just about to grab the glass away from Qiao Xin in the next second.

A slim arm reached over from one side and grabbed onto Qiao Xin’s glass of wine tightly. The owner of this arm was, unexpectedly, Yang Huayue.

“Brother Qiao, it’s not that nice to give a girl a hard time. Liu Man’s even younger than me and hasn’t graduated from college. Liu Man’s just a child! I will toast Director Ye for her. I’m a girl, so that should be no problem, right?”

Qiao Xin had never expected Yang Huayue, someone who had nothing to do with the current situation, to save Liu Man. Yang Huayue stared into his eyes dauntlessly. It was clear what she meant. She was going to help Liu Man this time.

The crowds who were onlookers thought Yang Huayue was being stupid again and was going to turn into a target like last time.

Gao Jindong, who was smiling before, had suddenly changed his expression. He was now staring at Yang Huayue coldly and was about to berate this stupidly fearless girl.

Feng Qingyu, who had been an onlooker until now, said with a faint smile,

“I didn’t know until now that this young girl who played Ji Ning is someone impressive! You all seem to like her,” As she said this, Feng Qingyu directly looked at Yang Huayue and said softly, “Huayue,” Her voice was gentle,

“Just now, when I toasted you, didn’t you say you didn’t have a good liquor capacity? I remember that you only took a small sip. Why are you suddenly drinking an entire glass for this girl? You can adjust your liquor capacity based on whom you’re toasting? Or, is your attitude towards Director Ye and me different?”

Feng Qingyu mercilessly challenged Yang Huayue.

Yang Huayue was not expecting this at all. At this moment, she couldn’t find anything to respond with.

Yes, she purposely refused to toast Feng Qingyu just now and perfunctorily took a sip. Although the traces of the conflict and arguments were deleted from Wei Bo, Yang Huayue was still not exactly friends with Feng Qingyu. Of course, Feng Qingyu acted like everything was normal when she partnered with Yang Huayue in the scenes, but it didn’t represent Feng Qingyu didn’t hate Yang Huayue for what she did. Feng Qingyu was the scariest type of person. She hid everything in her mind and would stab you in the back when you least expect it.

Everyone quieted down as Feng Qingyu abruptly challenged Yang Huayue.

Everyone knew about the farce that happened between Yang Huayue and Feng Qingyu a few days ago. They thought Feng Qingyu already forgave her, but nobody expected her to suddenly declare war against Yang Huayue. This was very impressive, this war going from Wei Bo to reality. Everyone was only able to gawk on Wei Bo, so now they could, once again, only be an onlooker.

“Huayue, this is your fault. Why don’t you apologize by toasting Qingyu first with this glass of wine?

It was her fault?

How was it her fault?

Why did she have to apologize to Feng Qingyu?

Yang Huayue felt very unfair and mistreated, but under Gao Jindong’s glare, she could only rant in her mind and not say anything out loud. Gao Jindong was her beam in the entertainment circle. Without Gao Jindong, she would be nothing.

Yang Huayue looked at Liu Man with an apologetic expression as she said in her mind, “Sorry, I can’t help you.”

How cruel was this world? Just two days ago, Yang Huayue was still complaining about everyone in the cast being indifferent and merciless.

But at this moment, she turned into one of them. Someone who would give up on another for her benefits. She gave up the only person who provided her mental support when she was the most helpless.

Yang Huayue held that glass from Qiao Xin as she walked up to Feng Qingyu. She smiled but couldn’t look Feng Qingyu in the eye as she said, “Qingyu, sis, it was my fault. I apologize to you. This is my toast to you.”

Then, without waiting for Feng Qingyu’s reactions, she closed her eyes and finished the glass of wine in one mouthful. Maybe it was because she drank too fast, but Yang Huayue even coughed a little. She then walked silently back to her seat without saying anything else.

Feng Qingyu glared at her through the corner of her eye. At this moment, her eyes were like the ones of a poisonous snake.
