156 Chapter 156. Vicious Woman
The cameraman looked as if he was facing a great enemy. He held the hem of the dress in his hands and was extremely flustered. He anxiously patted the mark on the hem. With a face full of self-blame, he said, “It’s all my fault for not holding it properly! What should I do now? Sister Zhao, I didn’t do it on purpose!”
Xiao Zhao’s expression was as if she had eaten a dead fly. She glared at Chen Tong, then hurriedly squatted down and snatched the hem of the dress from the cameraman’s hands to scrutinize it.
She had taken every precaution, but he had not been able to prevent this vicious woman from making a move on the gown. It was the first day they had met, and she could not wait to do these little tricks. She looked like a B*tch. How unlucky!
Xiao Zhao’s heart ached as he looked at the skirt. The silk fabric was initially delicate, so when Chen Tong stepped on it, there was a stain that could not be removed, no matter how hard she tried.
Xiao Zhao stood up in a huff. She said to Chen Tong rudely, “Miss Chen, isn’t your carelessness a little too much of a coincidence? Our Sister Shan hasn’t yet moved, and you’re about to fall head first. Those who don’t know might think someone has done something to you. Now that the dress is dirty, we have the right to ask Miss Chen to compensate us.”
Xiao Zhao was furious. This Chen Tong had been dishonest before she came. She had sent out many articles to smear her sister, Shan. It was sister Shan who had advised her to try her best to maintain peace for the sake of the big picture.
However, Chen Tong was too much. She had ruined Sister Shan’s benevolence and kindness!
Xiao Zhao looked at Chen Tong with some unyielding attitude. She acted like a manager and stood before Ding Shan, seeking an explanation.
Xiao Liu also walked forward and looked at Chen Tong with a sad expression. “Miss Chen’s carelessness is not cheap. This is a limited edition design master’s new model. You can’t buy it even if you want to.”
Chen Tong pretended to be surprised and covered her mouth. “I messed up big time!” Then, she apologized to Ding Shan, “But sister Shan, I didn’t do it on purpose. I’m not used to wearing these high heels. I sprained my ankle, and that’s why I dirtied your dress. How about… Do you change into another one? Are there any other ones that fit?”
Chen Tong seemed considerate and caring, but she kept cursing Ding Shan in her heart. It would be best if she had no other clothes to wear! Let’s see how she can show off! Ding Shan could forget about wearing it if she could not wear it!
Ding Shan stood calmly on the spot from the beginning to the end, watching Chen Tong’s performance with a faint smile.
Seeing how shameless Chen Tong was acting coquettishly at her, Ding Shan was speechless.
This acting skill was a little unacceptable. Chen Tong was short of writing “Evil second female lead” on her face. Unfortunately, she could continue to perform such a low-end trick.
Chen Tong was talking to herself, “But I don’t think sister Shan will be angry with me over a dress, right? At worst, I’ll pay for it. After all, I was the one who lost my footing. It’s my responsibility. I don’t know if I can afford to pay.”
Chen Tong smiled apologetically at Ding Shan. “Sister Shan, my resources have not been excellent, and I don’t have much money. You are a generous person. Don’t make me go bankrupt!”
Xiao Zhao’s eyes widened as she glared at Chen Tong like a tiger staring at its prey. She wanted nothing more than to go up and tear her face apart.
She still had the nerve to say that? She stepped on the dress, saying she would pay for it one moment and that she didn’t have any money the next. If sister Shan refused to give up and insisted that she pay for it, wouldn’t that leave her with an unreasonable image of forcing others to go bankrupt? How could there be such a reason?
However, there was nothing they could do. As the commotion on Ding Shan’s side grew larger and larger, many staff members had already cast their curious gazes over here.
No matter what, Xiao Zhao could not have a heated argument with another female artiste on such an occasion. That would not have a good impact on Ding Shan.
Xiao Zhao furrowed her brows tightly and said to Chen Tong, “Miss Chen, please don’t be a moral kidnapper. We are not interested in the remuneration for your work. I only know that the current situation is caused by you alone. You have caused trouble for my artiste. It is no use trying to evade responsibility. We need to discuss a solution.”
Chen Tong was so pitiful that she looked like she was about to cry. “I know. I will accept whatever solution you guys want.” After she said that, she turned around and faced the direction where the most onlookers were. She pretended to wipe away her nonexistent tears.
When Ding Shan saw this scene, she could not help but laugh out loud. “Miss Chen, you should have handled this part of your relationship better. You should at least appear a little more sincere with some remorse.”
