Chapter 249 - NEVER SATISFIED



Song Lili was frustrated and angry. Since she had come back to the country and joined the entertainment industry, her life had been sailing on without a hitch. She had been the queen, and everyone wanted to curry favour with her.

Her confidence in acting freely had come from the support of Madam Zhong.

In the beginning, the woman had done everything to make sure that she was comfortable, and no one was bullying her. It was no secret that the entertainment industry could be a dirty place with a lot of people demanding special favours in exchange for roles.

She could not escape the hidden rules without backing. She had been a model overseas for a long time, but the local industry was different. She did not have enough connections to guarantee her protection against the powerful people in the city.

Moreover, she was a little older, and the market was tough for her as a beginner.

However, with Chu Ling's help, she had not experienced any obstacles when starting as an actress, despite her inexperience and age. She had signed a good contract under a subsidiary of Zhong Industries and gotten a role in a movie almost right away.

Besides, the company had arranged for her to appear in some variety shows to increase face recognition.

She had planned on laying low for a while and then making her counterattack by pursuing Zhong Feng with dignity. As long as he understood who she had become since they last met, he would not ignore her for that girl.

She still remembered what Chu Ling had told her.

But how could she give up on him?

In the initial days after joining the industry, she did not do anything outrageous. Her attitude had been that of a dignified but humble lady. She had complied with the company's arrangements.

However, some of the management level people in the entertainment company had seen her with Chu Ling a little while later. They had also learned that Chu Ling was the one who had contacted the senior executives and asked her to sign on Song Lili.

Even though Chu Ling no longer thought of her as a potential daughter-in-law, she treated her well for the sake of old feelings. When they met, she would ask about her progress and even invite her for coffee.

After that incident, some misunderstandings had occurred, and everyone assumed that she was the future daughter-in-law of the Zhong family.

She did not feel that there was anything wrong with that because she believed that it would happen sooner or later. If there was anything that Song Lili never lacked, it was self-confidence.

In the beginning, she was cautious about using the Zhong name to get better resources and live a more comfortable life in the entertainment industry. However, humans are never satisfied with just having a little comfort. When you give them an inch, they will want a mile.

It was the same with Song Lili.

She was okay with people treating her a little better at first. But after staying in Supreme City for a while, she had understood that the power of the Zhong family was beyond her imagination. They were not a simple aristocratic family.

Zhong Feng was like an emperor. A word from him was like a decree, and everyone would follow without question.

Perhaps it was the delusion of being with Zhong Feng which had caused Song Lili to become a lot more daring.

In her mind, she thought: if I am the future wife of the emperor, why shouldn't I enjoy the rights of being an empress?

With that thought, she had become a little more capricious. She had begun demanding more resources while subtly threatening the managers in the company. Also, when she participated in any event, she would insist on getting the best treatment from the staff.

Additionally, she had bought a few hot searches and trending topics about her relationship with Zhong Feng, portraying them as childhood sweethearts with an undeniable destiny.

Her agent had been afraid for her because she had seen what had happened to those who exploited that man's name.

However, the retribution never came.

For a short time, everything was perfect.

She had felt that everything was as it should be.

The lack of retaliation from Zhong Feng and his people confirmed the rumours in the industry. Song Lili was the future daughter-in-law of the Zhong family. Even her agent who had never seen any interaction between the emperor and the entertainer was drawn into the delusion.

If Zhong Feng did not mind the link between them, he, at least, had some interest in her. That's exactly what she had told her artiste with relish at the time.

Song Lili was uncomfortable because she knew the truth: he did not pay enough attention to her to know and care about her actions.
