Chapter 484: Chapter 484
Zuo Yuqing looked slightly stunned upon hearing Assistant Xiao’s words, then a faint smile appeared on her face. She spoke unhurriedly, "That’s true. I still carry the title of the National Goddess, and besides, matters of the heart are always unpredictable and can’t be forced upon anyone..." She stopped talking abruptly, glancing indifferently at Lu Jingchen, who had just opened the rear car door not far away. She veered away from the topic and said, "Let’s go. It’s almost time for my scene, and it wouldn’t be good to be late."
The assistant promptly responded with a sigh of relief upon hearing Zuo Yuqing’s words, worried that Yuqing might take it too hard.
However, while Zuo Yuqing didn’t wish to meddle further in Lu Jingchen and Song Qiao’s affairs, someone else couldn’t stand idly by. She had barely taken a few steps when someone blocked her path with a voice filled with mockery and tinged with a distinctly irritating edge due to jealousy, "Isn’t this Miss Zuo? Why the hurry? Didn’t Young Master Lu come to see you? Aren’t you going to say hello? It’s not very nice to leave , after all, everyone in the crew saw how grandly Young Master Lu watched you perform in front of his wife yesterday. Thanks to you, the entire crew got to enjoy the famous treats from Huaxiang Dessert..."
The voice that came through was actually pleasant to hear, but it was filled with sarcasm and distorted by envy, even containing a hint of gnashing of teeth, making it particularly grating to the ears.
Zuo Yuqing looked up only to see a young woman a few steps away, whom she had recognized from the moment she heard the voice. Now seeing her in person, Yuqing couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised. When had she ever offended her to the point where she would come looking for trouble?
The woman in front was named Su Yingxue, who also starred in this TV drama, albeit in a less significant supporting role. After all, since the TV drama was produced by Huayi Media, except for Song Xi and another male actor who were newcomers, most of the other characters were seasoned actors with television experience. This included lead roles and other important supporting characters -- truly big names in the entertainment industry.
Su Yingxue had previously starred in two TV dramas adapted from novels, which had enjoyed significant popularity before their adaptations, resulting in good ratings and reputation when broadcasted. Thus, Su Yingxue was considered a fairly famous rising star in the industry.
Su Yingxue’s personality, perhaps affected by her meteoric rise, seemed extremely arrogant and domineering. Just yesterday, she had caused trouble for Yuqing during filming. Her rude remarks were not a new experience for Yuqing, who had ignored her yesterday and vividly remembered Su Yingxue’s alternating pale and flushed face, which had been quite a spectacle.
What Zuo Yuqing hadn’t expected was that this woman would come to trouble her again today.
Frowning slightly, Zuo Yuqing didn’t immediately respond. Instead, Assistant Xiao, upon seeing Su Yingxue’s arrival, looked visibly upset, remembering how this woman had bullied their Yuqing just yesterday, even giving them coffee laced with something extra. Fortunately, they had discovered it early enough to avoid disaster.
Assistant Xiao initially wanted to lash out, but Yuqing tugged at her arm. Turning to look, she saw Yuqing shaking her head slightly, reminding her that Director He disliked infighting among the crew members, especially when it involved assistants trying to outdo each other.

Biting her teeth lightly, Assistant Xiao suppressed her anger, but her tone was none too pleasant, "Miss Su Yingxue, is there something you need? If not, please step aside."
Ever since that last incident, their Yuqing had been keeping a low profile, abstaining from all the overt and covert struggles. And yet, some people just had to pick fights with her. It was indeed very annoying.
