Chapter 13
013. Wants to be my Stepmother
The makeup artist had never seen her manager dare to confront an artiste like this before. She stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do. She was afraid that she would be banned if she heard something she shouldn’t.
Ding Shan gently patted the makeup artist’s hand and said softly, “Auntie Hua might be in a bad mood. Let’s talk. Can you wait for me outside for a while?”
The makeup artist felt relieved and nodded gratefully at Ding Shan. She then looked at Yang Hua. In the makeup artist’s eyes, Ding Shan was a gentle and lovely little white rabbit at this moment. She was worried that this manager would bully her goddess, however, she could not help much and could only leave the room gently.
Once the outsider left, Yang Hua became even more unscrupulous. “Did you forget to teach me a lesson again? If you don’t listen, you won’t have to eat for the next two nights!”
Ding Shan frowned. “Aunt Hua, do you still think I’m a three-year-old kid? You’re using this to scare me?”
Yang Hua thought that Ding Shan was afraid and smiled proudly. “I’ve been taking care of you since you were young. Why are you rebelling now? The resources are all in my hands. No matter what kind of rich person you get, don’t you still have to rely on me?”
Ding Shan turned her head and asked calmly, “But, why are my resources and career getting worse and worse? Aunt Hua, have you put it in your heart to help me?”
Yang Hua flew into a rage out of humiliation. “What do you know? Do you think that work is so easy to accept? Didn’t you get to where you are today all because of me? Without me, your whole family would be in the storm!”
Ding Shan slowly guided her, “But usually, Mom and Dad are also concerned a lot. It’s all thanks to them.”
Yang Hua snorted disdainfully. “Your Dad is quite capable. That Mom of yours is stupid. What does it have to do with her? Just listen to your father and me from now on. Don’t talk too much in front of your mother. We’ve been together for so many years. Don’t overestimate yourself.”
Ding Shan couldn’t take it anymore, she said excitedly, “Don’t you dare talk about my mother like that! You know how you’ve been together with her for so many years. Do you want me to listen to you, or do you want me to replace her with you as my stepmother? Do you need me to say more about what happened between you and Dad? You’ve stolen a lot of money over the years. Can you please let our family go?”
Yang Hua did not expect Ding Shan to say this out loud. She had always thought that Ding Shan was stupid, so she had never been guarded against her. She thought that even if she knew, she would not dare to say it out loud. This made her angry, she slapped Ding Shan in the face. “What are you saying? I don’t want you to talk nonsense again!”
Ding Shan stubbornly held back her tears. “Am I spouting nonsense or are you feeling guilty?”
Yang Hua saw that she could not scare Ding Shan, so she could only coax her. “Let me tell you, your father and your mother no longer have any feelings for each other. Your mother is stupid and unreasonable. She is as fat as a pig. She only knows how to squander and spend money every day. Your father is not a fool. He will naturally choose me! Keep your mouth shut. In the future, listen to your father and me. We can still make money and spend it in peace.”
Deep down, Yang Hua still did not believe that Ding Shan had the guts to expose her to Wang Chun. She continued, “Think about it carefully. Does your mother usually like you? Even if you tell her, she will not believe it. Your Father’s heart is with me now. He will also help me.”
Ding Shan cried silently. It seemed that she was frightened by Yang Hua’s words.
Yang Hua pushed Ding Shan, and she fell on the chair.
Yang Hua said fiercely, “Be smart. Think about who is in charge. Be careful not to be kicked out together with your stupid mother!”
After saying that, Yang Hua no longer minded Ding Shan. She rushed out of the door.
Ding Shan lowered her head and sat on the chair in a daze. She looked very lonely and desperate. However, beneath her hair, there was a hint of craftiness in her eyes. Yang Hua really couldn’t stand being probed. She had started the conversation and told her everything she needed to know.
The makeup artist pushed the door open and walked in. When she saw Ding Shan, she was shocked. “Your… Your Face?”
Ding Shan carelessly touched her face and looked at the makeup artist apologetically. “I’m sorry, I might need you to help me touch up my makeup again.”
The makeup artist’s heart ached so much that her eyes almost turned red. Such a good goddess, how could that old witch do it? In the past, she didn’t know much about Ding Shan. Now, she only felt that celebrities had so many disappointments. She had already become a movie queen, so how could she still be beaten by her manager?
Ding Shan looked at the makeup artist gently. “Today was an accident. Can you keep it a secret for me?”
The makeup artist nodded helplessly and hurriedly dealt with the marks on Ding Shan’s face.
