Chapter 1857: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (61)

The attendant in the yacht’s private room was a friend that Bai Tong used to know.

She secretly took a video and sent it to Bai Tong.

Bai Tong never expected Director Chen to hold an audition for the female lead again.

What surprised her even more was that Huo Third Master had spoken up for that unknown girl.

Bai Tong carefully looked at that girl. She really was beautiful. In the entertainment industry, where there were countless beauties, her beauty was still unique.

However, no matter how beautiful she was, it was impossible for her to replace the female lead.

Yet, Huo Third Master had spoken.

After seeing the girl’s appearance, Bai Tong understood that she looked more like Xia Tang than her.

Therefore, Huo Third Master was attracted to her at first sight.

It wasn’t because he liked her, but because he saw Xia Tang in her.

Xia Tang, Xia Tang… That woman was dead, but she was still so attractive!

Bai Tong forcefully flung the cosmetics on the dressing table onto the floor.

No, she was the female lead. She couldn’t let that imposter snatch that away.

Bai Tong picked up her phone and made a call.

Soon, the call went through.

“Ms. Bai.”

Xia Furong answered the call.

Although Xia Furong had become famous in the past two years, she didn’t pose any threat to Bai Tong.

“Furong, didn’t you like the diamond necklace I was wearing a while ago? I asked my friend to buy you a necklace overseas. I’ll get my friend to send it to your apartment in a few days.”

Xia Furong was flattered. Bai Tong was usually very cold and aloof in the company. Even if Xia Furong wanted to curry favor with her, she couldn’t.

A few days ago, the two of them had met in the elevator. Xia Furong couldn’t find a topic to talk about, so she said that Bai Tong’s necklace was beautiful. She didn’t expect that a casual sentence from her would actually make Bai Tong spend money.

“Miss Bai, you’re too kind.”

“It’s okay. We’re all from the same company.” Bai Tong exchanged a few pleasantries with Xia Furong. She seemed to have thought of something and suddenly changed the topic. “Furong, I got a piece of news. There’s a girl called Xia Cha who will replace me as the female lead. Actually, whether I act as the female lead or not doesn’t affect me. Director Chen thinks highly of me. Even if I can’t be the female lead, I’ll be the second female lead.”

“The second female lead in this drama is also a very likable character. If she acts well, she won’t lose out to the second female lead. As far as I know, you’ve already been selected for the second female lead role in the audition!”

“It looks like you won’t be able to be the second female lead.” Bai Tong sighed. “What a pity. Originally, you could have entered the film industry with this drama.”

When Xia Furong heard what Bai Tong said, she was instantly agitated and angry. “Miss Bai, are you talking about Xia Cha?”

Wasn’t Xia Cha still in Wenfeng County? Why would she come to Harbor City?

In Xia Furong’s heart, Xia Cha was just a bumpkin who had never seen the world. She was on a completely different level from her.

But now, not only did she want to replace Bai Tong as the female lead, but she also wanted to replace her as the second female lead.

This was intolerable!

“Miss Bai, has she already passed the audition?”

“I heard that she will be auditioning at Director Chen’s studio tomorrow morning at 10am. However, with our company’s big boss as her guarantor, I think she’ll probably be chosen.”

What???!

Xia Cha could actually make Huo Third Master speak up for her?

Xia Furong had been in the company for two years and she had met the big boss not more than five times. She had only seen him once from afar during the annual meeting.

It was impossible for her to go up and greet him.

And Xia Cha actually made him speak up for her!

Xia Furong’s eyes instantly turned red from anger. She clenched her fists so tightly that the veins on the back of her hands popped out.

No, she couldn’t allow that to happen!

The role of the second female lead that she had fought so hard for could not be given away just like that!

Xia Furong walked around the room twice. Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind and she thought of someone.

That person was a rich second-generation heir who had chased after her crazily for a while. After his family went bankrupt and he came to look for her again, she ignored him.

Xia Furong picked up her phone and made a call.

…

Late at night, Xia Cha got off the yacht and went to the hotel.

After taking a shower, she lay on the bed. She was obviously tired, but she could not fall asleep.

When she arrived at Harbor City, she wasn’t unfamiliar with the environment here. When she saw Mr. Huo, she also felt that he looked familiar.

Why?

Xia Cha tried hard to remember something, but she could not remember anything.

She closed her eyes and forced herself to sleep.

The next morning, she woke up.

She looked up some new shows for Director Chen’s casting online and watched the shows he had filmed in the past.

Once she was ready, she left the house.

Qi Ran was busy at work today and couldn’t pick Xia Cha up, so she took a taxi there.

After leaving the hotel, Xia Cha saw a taxi parked there.

She got into the taxi without thinking too much about it.

After giving him the address, Xia Cha sent a message to Qi Ran. “Senior, I’m going to Director Chen’s place now. Don’t worry.”

After the taxi drove for a distance, Xia Cha looked out of the window.

She took out her phone and used the GPS to find Director Chen’s office.

“Sir, are you going in the wrong direction?”

The driver said nothing.

Xia Cha sensed that something was wrong. She frowned and said coldly, “Stop the car. I want to get off!”

Instead of stopping the car, the driver sped up.

“Who are you?”

Xia Cha looked at the driver through the rearview mirror and realized that the driver was wearing a cap and mask. She could not see his face clearly. Only his eyes could be seen, and his eyes were filled with ruthlessness.

Xia Cha’s heart beat faster. She hit the car window hard, but as she did so, her hand felt weak and her mind gradually became blurry.

She closed her eyes as she fainted.

The man drove the taxi to the beach. No one could be seen here. He lifted Xia Cha out of the car.

There was an old speedboat parked at the beach. The man tossed Xia Cha onto the speedboat, then he jumped off the speedboat. He pressed the remote control, and the speedboat immediately sprang into motion, heading deeper into the ocean.

…

After some time, Xia Cha slowly woke up.

Her head was still heavy. She pushed herself up and stood up.

Her body swayed a little and she felt that something was wrong. Xia Cha walked to the railing with trembling legs.

She was surprised to find herself in a speeding speedboat.

Had the driver thrown her onto the speedboat?

Xia Cha looked around and realized that there was no one else on the speedboat except her. Her heart jumped to her throat.

She went to the driver’s side and tried to stop the speedboat, but she couldn’t.

Xia Cha looked at the vast sea, panic showing in her usually calm eyes.

If she could not stop the speedboat, she might run into danger and die in this deep sea.

…

On an undeveloped island.

Huo Heng got onto the speedboat and prepared to leave.

This island had been bought when he was still Huo Ze for Xia Tang. But before he could develop it, something happened to him and Xia Tang!
