It was night in Yang City.

Ye Shengge had already gotten drunk early in the night, so she decided to go back to her office to spend the night.

It was the award ceremony of Prime Prize tomorrow, and as the major shareholder and agent of the company, she had a lot of errands to run, so she had to wake up early.

Ye Shengge was awakened by some noises outside shortly after she fell asleep.

She opened her eyes and saw light coming from outside.

Someone’s out there?

Ye Shengge was alerted. Just as she was pondering whether she should call the police or not, she heard a bang of the door as if someone had kicked it.

“When can we officially be together, Yanhuai?” She heard a melodious female voice.

Ye Shengge was dazed.

Isn’t that the voice of Mu Xiaoya?

Mu Xiaoya was an artist managed by Ye Shengge, and Yanhuai was the fiancé of Ye Shengge.

Three years ago, Ye Shengge and Mu Yanhuai had founded Star Brilliance Entertainment Company together. Mu Yanhuai was in charge of the operation whilst she managed the artists, and together they made Mu Xiaoya the queen of television ratings.

And besides, Mu Yanhuai and Mu Xiaoya were siblings!

How could they be together?

She reckoned she was hallucinating as she was very drunk.

Ye Shengge couldn’t help shaking her head.

“Come on, it’s not the time yet.”

The man’s voice was hoarse. It was Mu Yanhuai.

“The company has just started to prosper. We still need her.”

“I’m already queen of the annual television ratings, and the Queen of Television of Prime Prize is destined to be mine. Isn’t that enough?” The woman said with a whiny pout. “Can’t you break up with her? Just seeing you two together disgusts me.”

“Come on, Xiaoya, just bear with it for a bit longer,” said the man. “I’ll find a chance to tell her, but it’s not the time yet. I’m the only person she has. I fear that she might not be able to handle it.”

“I didn’t expect you to actually care about her, Yanhuai,” Mu Xiaoya said enviously.

“Silly girl.” Mu Yanhuai chuckled. “Why would she actually help us wholeheartedly if I don’t show her some actual concern?”

Mu Xiaoya smirked, “There’s no way she realizes that I’m not your sister.”

...

Their conversation pounded Ye Shengge’s brain like a hammer, making her dizzy.

She went blank for a long while after hearing the conversation, and she could hear the continuous humming sound.

After she had finally calmed herself down, the people outside stopped talking. All she could hear was constant moaning that reminded her what was really happening.

It wasn’t a dream or hallucination. Everything she had just heard was real.

One of them was her fiancé while the other one was an artist she had devoted all her energy to. She trusted them completely, yet they’d been deceiving her the whole time.

Ye Shengge couldn’t help shivering because of the humiliation and indignation. She wanted to rush out and confront them directly, but she knew she shouldn’t.

She couldn’t let them get away with it that easily!

She kept biting her lips so that she wouldn’t cry out, but she still couldn’t stop tearing up.

It took a long time for the two people to leave.

Ye Shengge took a deep breath, thinking about all the feelings and time she had wasted in the past three years. She wiped away her tears and rushed to her desk, turning on her computer.

Mu Yanhuai and Mu Xiaoya would never have guessed that Ye Shengge had set up a CCTV in the public area outside, and she had set it up because of Mu Xiaoya, but she had never realized that it would come into use so soon.

Perhaps even fate didn’t want her to be fooled like this anymore.

Soon, Mu Xiaoya’s face showed up on the screen. Her eyes were closed, and her face was blushing. Mu Yanhuai was kissing Mu Xiaoya’s neck, and they were both half-naked already.

She was surprisingly calm watching that scene, probably because she had numbed herself after being hurt like this.

Ye Shengge immediately cut out that section of the video and copied it onto her hard drive.

It was already dawn after she was finished.

She then went to the bathroom, washed her face and washed away her tears.

Her pale yet exquisite face was reflected in the mirror when she raised her head.

However, anyone would have felt pity when they saw her appearance.

It was because there was a birthmark that was at the size of the palm of a baby on Ye Shengge’s face.

And it was because of that birthmark that she trusted all the sweet things Mu Yanhuai said.

And because of that birthmark, she could never get on stage even if she was incredibly talented.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have devoted all her energy and time to Mu Xiaoya to help her get roles, to write scripts and role assessments, and to even get alcohol poisoning.

However, all of her devotion to Mu Yanhuai and Mu Xiaoya was a joke now!

She had only realized just then why Mu Xiaoya was always weirdly hostile toward her and she was always clingy over Mu Yanhuai. She even saw Mu Yanhuai and Mu Xiaoya hug each other intimately.

But Ye Shengge had always understood that as the sibling love between them.

Damn so-called siblings!

Ye Shengge clenched her fist as she felt that there was something burning in her eyes.

And then, the phone she had put beside the sink started to ring.

She saw the name ‘Mu Yanhuai’ on the screen, and she bit her lips.

She calmed herself down and picked it up.

“Where are you?” Mu Yanhuai said impolitely. “Are you in contact with the direction, Xu Xiangjie from ‘Xue Ning’? Has he agreed to let Xiaoya be the lead actress?”

The investor of ‘Xue Ning’ was Corporation T.S, which was one of the leading corporations nationwide. It had connections with finance, telecommunications, real estate and e-commerce.

Mu Yanhuai had been wanting to know the heir of Corporation T.S, Ji Shiting, however, Ji Shiting was always a low-key person, so even if Mu Yanhuai was the boss of Star Brilliance, he wasn’t important enough to know Ji Shiting yet.

He had to make connections with Corporation T.S using the show ‘Xue Ning’, so he valued the show a lot.

Ye Shengge knew exactly what he was planning to do, which was why she’d been making appointments with the direction Xu Xiangjie lately, and last night, he had finally agreed to give Mu Xiaoya a second chance.

She was originally almost certain that she could help Mu Xiaoya get the part, but now...

“Direction Xu isn’t satisfied with Xiaoya’s performance in the audition yet,” she tried to say calmly so that Mu Yanhuai wouldn’t notice anything different.

“Damn Xu Xiangjie!” Mu Yanhuai said. “Then everything must go perfectly in the ceremony of Prime Prize tonight. If Xiaoya can be crowned the best actress, I bet that Xu Xiangjie will change his mind. Go check what the host and judges think.”

Ye Shengge hadn’t realized until just then that Mu Yanhuai was always so overbearing when he was talking to her on the phone.

She clenched her fist again, looked at the mirror and smiled, “Sure.”

...

The carpet session started at five in the afternoon.

There were many famous actors and actresses on that night, but because of her fame, Mu Xiaoya was one of the last people who walked onto the carpet.

Ye Shengge showed up in the audience area beside the carpet. She was wearing a mask, trying not to draw any attention.

After a while, Mu Xiaoya showed up. She was wrapping her arms around Mu Yanhuai’s arms with a big smile on her face.

The audience started to bustle as Mu Xiaoya was the most important rising star this year.

“Wow! Isn’t that Mu Xiaoya with her brother Mu Yanhuai?” Some of the audience yelled. “How lucky! Her brother is the boss of her company, so he devoted all the good resources to her. No wonder she became such a star in such a short period of time.”

Ye Shengge heard everything the audience said as they were correct, Star Brilliance had given the best resources to Mu Xiaoya, and she, as her agent, had devoted all her time to Mu Xiaoya.

She had hand-picked every single show Mu Xiao starred in, and to leave a good impression on the directors, Ye Shengge would help Mu Xiaoya rehearse over and over again so that she would be considered a great actress.

Even so, Mu Xiaoya would sometimes flaunt her temper, and Ye Shengge would just comfort her as she had thought of her as a baby sister.

Ye Shengge would also act as a stunt double for Mu Xiaoya while shooting a scene if it was dangerous, but nobody outside the show knew about it, which was why the audience considered Mu “professional” and “willing to make sacrifices for the role.”

If it weren’t for any of this, Mu Xiaoya wouldn’t have garnered such popularity in only three years.

Unfortunately, it was difficult to build a reputation and gain the public’s recognition, but it was so easy to destroy everything. Sometimes, all it needed was a tape...

The ceremony began at seven in the evening.

Mu Xiaoya was still hyped walking on the carpet. She whispered to the man standing beside her, “Yanhuai, the audience cheered the loudest when I showed up.”

“That’s right, my super star.” Mu Yanhuai smiled. He looked around and said, “So strange. Where’s Ye Shengge? She hasn’t been picking up her phone.”

Mu Xiaoya looked a bit disdainful after hearing that what he said, “Could you not mention her name, Yanhuai?”

“She went to ask whether the judges chose you or not.” Mu Yanhuai frowned.

“Who else are they going to choose?” Mu Xiaoya sneered. “I really don’t think she’s that big of a deal. I could’ve become famous even without her.”

Mu Yanhuai smiled and looked to the stage.

Time passed until finally it was the time to reveal who the best lead actress was.

The selected videos of the candidates were shown on the screen, but it blinked twice when it came to the final candidate, Mu Xiaoya.

And then, Mu Xiaoya’s blushing face showed up on the screen.

Everyone was shocked, and the hall sank into silence. Some people even started to wonder when Mu Xiaoya had starred in such a sexual show as she always played innocent roles.

Even Mu Xiaoya didn’t realize what had happened at first. She was surprised to see her face on the screen. Although that video was soundless, her face had already manifested everything that she was doing.

And then, the man at her side also showed up on the screen. Only his profile was shown, yet Mu Yanhuai immediately recognized that face.

It was... himself!

“Turn it off!” Mu Yanhuai stood up abruptly and shouted, “Turn it off now!”

Mu Xiaoya also realized what had happened, and her face turned pale.

All the celebrities, journalists and audience also realized what was happening on the screen, and countless people took out their phones or cameras to capture them.

It was a sex tape!

It was Mu Xiaoya’s sex tape, the sex of tape of the rising star and the candidate for the best actress!

As for the guy in the video, nobody had known who he was, but when they saw Mu Yanhuai yell in a heart-wrenching way, they all realized that the man in the video could be the ‘sibling’ of Mu Xiaoya, Mu Yanhuai!

Incest?

Gosh!

...

The video was on for more than ten seconds as Mu Yanhuai rushed backstage to find out what was going on with the system.

Ye Shengge sat in the audience and chuckled seeing Mu Yanhuai lose his mind.

It was too easy for her to switch the video of Mu Yanhuai using the network.

However, it was only the start.

Ye Shengge had left with a pack of beers and gone to the river shore while the hall was in chaos.

She had a very high tolerance for alcohol, however, she had gotten tipsy after drinking only a little bit.

She took out her phone, and it was a bomb on Weibo. The sex tape of Mu Xiaoya was reposted tens of thousands of time within a few minutes by countless accounts. Everything went viral quickly in the internet era.

She felt great having her revenge, but her heart still ached as she was thinking about the emotions and energy she had wasted.

She thought that Mu Yanhuai would give her a home, but she was wrong. In the end, she was still all alone.

Because of the birthmark on her face, she could never realize her dream, and there was no way she could find another Mu Yanhuai and Mu Xiaoya.

Ye Shengge turned off her phone, forcing a smile.

She didn’t want to talk to anyone, especially Mu Yanhuai.

Which meant she couldn’t go back to her apartment tonight.

She then decided to take a taxi to an intercontinental hotel.

She couldn’t even walk straight as she was walking into the elevator.

The alcohol hit her very fast on that night.

Ye Shengge pressed the button for her floor, closed her eyes and rubbed her temple.
