Regret That Didn't Love You Earlier

0Chen Xi said, "Why did this investor want you to be the director of this web series? It was because he saw your short video. Do you know how popular your short video is on the Internet? Maybe this time someone will come and ask you to film. It's just a good start. Later, people will come looking for you to film because of the short video."    

    

"Xingxuan, you are showing off your skills in this industry because of a short video. This is something that even rookies in the industry cannot envy."    

    

"You don't have to worry that you will not be able to film this movie well. Just do as you wish. If you don't try, how will you know whether you will be able to do it or not?"    

    

This was the first time Xia Xingxuan had accepted to film an online drama. Because of her lack of experience, Xia Xingxuan did not have any leads or confidence in filming this movie.    

    

She carefully thought about what Chen Xi had said. If she did not feel at ease and did it, how would she know if she would be able to do it or not?    

    

Xia Xingxuan very quickly agreed to film this movie. This was only the first step to forming a partnership. Next, Xia Xingxuan still had to meet the investor of this movie and also get the script of this online movie.    

    

Chen Xi said that the investor would meet Xia Xingxuan tomorrow to discuss the relevant matters with Xia Xingxuan. Chen Xi was worried that this was Xia Xingxuan's first time discussing work with the investor and would not be good at business, so she accompanied Xia Xingxuan to meet the other party.    

    

Xia Xingxuan defeated Chiang Yuyan in the promotion exam and snatched the position that Chiang Yuyan thought should belong to her. She never thought that she would be worse than Xia Xingxuan, but it was Xia Xingxuan who became assistant director. Chiang Yuyan thought that Xia Xingxuan had Fu Jinchen as her backer. If it was not for Fu Jinchen, Xia Xingxuan was nothing.    

    

Xia Xingxuan only knew how to fight with her. First it was Fu Jinchen. Then it was assistant director's position. He had only been in assistant director's position for less than a day. Investors came to look for Xia Xingxuan to film. They saw that Xia Xingxuan could guide the show. Chiang Yuyan was not willing to let herself be assistant director's assistant.    

    

Coincidentally, the two of them met in the corridor outside the director's studio. Xia Xingxuan was lowering her head and looking at a document. She did not notice that the person walking over was Chiang Yuyan.    

    

When the two brushed past each other, Chiang Yuyan said sarcastically, "Yo, after becoming assistant director, it will be different. You don't even look at people when walking."    

    

"That's true. Assistant Director Xia is in this company. Who else does he need to look at? Other than assistant director's position, he was also the real boss of the company. When everyone sees you, besides avoiding you, they also have to respectfully call you the CEO's wife. "    

    

Xia Xingxuan's footsteps stopped. She closed the documents in her hands and turned around to see Chiang Yuyan's disdainful expression.    

    

"Since you have already said so, then why don't you call me the CEO's wife?"    

    

Chiang Yuyan asked, "Are you worthy?"    

    

"In your eyes, of course I am not worthy. Since you think I am not worthy, then why are you mocking me in front of me? Jealous that I am living a better life than you?"    

    

"Xia Xingxuan, don't think that you are superior just because you are assistant director. You know how you got the position of assistant director!"    

    

" Of course I know. After all, I got the position by relying on my strength. I sat with a clear conscience. I don't want some people who can't get it themselves, so I came to make others jealous. "    

    

Xia Xingxuan's words made Chiang Yuyan completely furious!    

    

"You can be proud of yourself now!"    

    

"It will be better if you don't fall into a crushing defeat!"    

    

After saying these two words, Chiang Yuyan angrily walked back to the studio.    

    

-    

    

The next day, accompanied by Chen Xi, Xia Xingxuan saw the investor who wanted to cooperate with her in filming.    

    

It was a lady who was about the same age as Chen Xi. From her dressing, it could be seen that she was a very good woman.    

    

When both parties met, they looked at each other and smiled.    

    

"Hello, my name is Anna. You can call me by my Mandarin name, Anna."    

    

This was Xia Xingxuan's first time seeing Anna but she had a very strange feeling towards Anna.    

    

Finally, she felt that she seemed to have seen this woman somewhere before.    

    

"Hello Madam Anna. My name is Xia Xingxuan and this is Director Chen Xi."    

    

Chen Xi politely nodded to Anna. When she met Anna's face, her eyes paused on Anna's face for a few seconds as if she was observing something.    

    

"Ms. Chen, may I ask what is on my face? Do you need to stare at me like that?"    

    

"Sorry, Ms. Anna. I was just... thinking about something. I didn't mean to offend you." Chen Xi retracted the pair of eyes on Anna's face and picked up the teacup on the table to drink water. Hiding it. The suspicion in her eyes.    

    

This Anna gave her a very familiar and unfamiliar feeling.    

    

In some places, Anna really looked like her sister-in-law, Mo Yafu, who had died.    

    

Anna turned the eyes on Chen Xi's face to Xia Xingxuan's face and said to Xia Xingxuan, "Miss Xia is really young and promising. At such a young age, she became the subject of everyone's attention because of a small piece of work."    

    

"After I saw the video of your director, I wanted to find you to cooperate."    

    

"I am a businessman in clothing and cosmetics. I want to enter the film industry to invest in the film industry. Although this is my first time working with someone, I don't think my standards will be that bad. I will not make a mistake. I believe Miss Xia will not let me down. "    

    

Anna's eyes stared unblinkingly at Xia Xingxuan which made Xia Xingxuan feel very uncomfortable.    

    

Every gaze Anna gave her was very strange. Xia Xingxuan swore that this was not because she misunderstood Anna but Anna's eyes gave her a very scary feeling.    

    

Although this lady seemed very approachable, Xia Xingxuan felt uncomfortable when she looked into her eyes. She could not help but feel uncomfortable.    

    

"Lady Anna, I want to discuss the script before we work together."    

    

"At present, I only have plans to accept modern dramas. If it is an ancient dramas or other dramas, then you have to look for Director Chen Xi."    

    

Chen Xi smiled gracefully and said, "Lady Anna, let's talk about the script. What is the theme of this online dramas that you have invested in?"    

    

Anna's left hand stirred the coffee in the cup and she looked up. The moment her cold eyes glanced at Xia Xingxuan, it made Xia Xingxuan recall four years ago. The woman who was hit to death fell on the front of the car and was on her last breath through the windshield. Her face was covered in blood, and she was still looking at her with eyes that were stained with blood.    

    

Xia Xingxuan's body seemed to have been hit by something and her body trembled. Her hand accidentally knocked down the teacup by her hand and poured out the tea from the teacup, wetting Xia Xingxuan's sleeves.    

    

"Aiya, why are you so careless." Chen Xi hurriedly put the poured tea cup away and asked Xia Xingxuan if it was hot.    

    

"I'm fine. This tea is warm." Xia Xingxuan took two tissues from the table and wiped her wet sleeves.    

    

"Lady Anna, I'm really sorry. I was rude."    

    

Anna drank a mouthful of coffee and did not care about the accident that just happened. She said expressionlessly, "It's good that Miss Xia is fine."    

    

"Let us officially start discussing the matter of cooperation."

"This online drama that I invested in Jia Hua is a modern revenge drama."    

    

Xia Xingxuan was stunned. "Modern revenge drama?"    

    

"Yes."    

    

"What about the script? Can I take a look?"    

    

"Of course."    

    

Anna took out a book from her bag.    

    

Xia Xingxuan asked, "What about the script?"    

    

"Isn't that it?" Anna placed her hand on the cover of the book and handed the book to Xia Xingxuan.    

    

Xia Xingxuan looked down and saw the name of the book Their Vengeance Game written on the cover. The pen name was Anna.    

    

Xia Xingxuan and Chen Xi looked at each other and understood that Anna's so-called script was referring to this book.    

    

Chen Xi said, "Lady Anna, we want the script. What do you mean by giving this book to us?"    

    

Anna said, "The inspiration for this online drama came from this book. This book was written by me when I was overseas and it was very popular overseas."    

    

"After I returned to the country, a publishing company found me and wanted to collaborate with me, so they published it in Chinese. It was only recently sold in China."    

    

"Lady Anna is not only a female entrepreneur, but also a female writer? Your interests and hobbies are really extensive." Chen Xi said.    

    

"So, Ms. Anna, you are paying your own money to invest in your novel and change it into an online drama?"    

    

Anna replied, "Yes."    

    

"Then take out a real book and say that this is the script. Does that mean that you want me to finish reading this book and then write the script?" Xia Xingxuan asked her.
