The Secret of Second Marriage

Shen Xing and I got into a taxi together.

I told him about my experiences on set recently, how yesterday I was inexplicably almost replaced by Xia Weiwei, and how I was targeted by the female lead in the TV series, and how I got several slaps on the face yesterday...

Shen Xing turned on her phone's flashlight and examined my face closely. A wave of heartache and pain washed over her. She said to me, a little angrily, "You can still see the handprint on your face, and it's still a bit swollen. Why didn't you tell me yesterday?"

"I've gotten used to it over the years; I have to shoulder my own burdens."

I remained silent for a long time before speaking.

Before I could finish speaking, Shen Xing was already sobbing uncontrollably, wiping his tears with his back to me. His heart ached as if it were being stabbed, as if he didn't want me to see him so upset.

He said, "Man, do you regret entering the entertainment industry?"

No regrets

I said, "No industry is easy to succeed in. I'm just a newcomer who hasn't been in the entertainment industry for long, so it's normal for me to be bullied. Shen Xing, you don't need to worry about me!"

"I hate myself for not being able to protect you at the most crucial moment."

Shen Xing said, "However, I already warned Tang Xueyan in front of Zhuo San today. If she still doesn't know what's good for her and continues to target you, I will tell Zhuo San's father about her affair with him."

You should know that his father is very strict with family rules. If he found out that he was messing around outside, he would definitely beat him to death.

Tang Xueyan is probably scared; she won't dare to play tricks on you again.

"Shen Xing, thank you!"

I said softly.

"Man, you need to take good care of yourself."

Shen Xing suddenly spoke very seriously.

I looked at the boy's features, which were still so handsome, with a hint of sadness, but it did not affect his stunning good looks and clean-cut demeanor at all.

I said, "Shen Xing, I don't feel like I've been wronged at all. On the contrary, I cherish the opportunity to act even more. Her hitting me will only make me work harder. I will definitely act well and go further and higher than her in the future!"

"Man, you can do it!"

Shen Xing said.

Competition exists in both the workplace and the entertainment industry. Once competition arises between people, pure friendship is no longer possible.

I have to learn to be patient and compromise, because as a newbie at the very bottom, what's the use of making a huge fuss? Tang Xueyan still found a sugar daddy to mess with me behind my back.

This is perhaps reality.

The taxi stopped in front of the Hengdian Hotel. Across the street from the hotel was the entertainment department, where many film crews shoot every day, and many artists get their makeup done.

I stood at the hotel entrance and said to Shen Xing, "It's late, you should go home and get some rest."

A handsome young man in a white shirt waved to me and said, "Goodnight, Jiang Man. You'll always have me in this world!"

His loud voice attracted the attention of people on the street at night.

A few drunkards who had just come out after drinking started teasing us, saying, "Wow, is someone confessing their love?"

I shook my head and said, "Let's drop you off here and go back."

Shen Xing said, "My sister is so mean! I helped her so much today, she should treat me to a meal... Can't she even afford a meal? She's sending me home so quickly!"

"I'll treat you to dinner when you have time in a few days."

I say.

"Okay, I'm so tired of the boxed lunches on set. Sis, you promised to treat me to a big meal, don't go back on your word!"

Shen Xing smiled.

……

The spring night wind was blowing gently, bringing a touch of warmth.

I watched Shen Xing get into the car and leave.

I suddenly made up my mind that I must treat Shen Xing to a big meal in a few days.

I went back to the hotel to rest.

When I arrived at the film set early the next morning, I saw several bright red finger marks on Tang Xueyan's face.

She asked her assistant to prepare ice cubes for her to apply to her face to reduce the swelling, and she also put on makeup to cover up the slap mark with powder.

I only found out then that yesterday, Shen Xing made Tang Xueyan slap herself more than a dozen times in order to get revenge for me. I heard the slapping sounds in the private room, and they were all Tang Xueyan being slapped.

Tang Xueyan became more polite when she saw me, no longer as arrogant and haughty as before.

I suddenly wondered, who exactly is Shen Xing's incredibly powerful father? Why does the entire entertainment industry seem to give his father so much face?

Even award-winning actress Tang Xueyan dared not provoke him.
