Little Miss Witch: Revenge of the Tainted Angel

The next day, Li Xiuying followed her schedule and made up her mind to see the woman who caused this trouble in her marriage. She wanted to see with her own eyes what kind of woman Lin Meirong was for Mu Jianyu to decide to abandon her. 

Going into denial will only make matters worse for her. As traumatic as it was to find out that her husband had been cheating, Li Xiuying needed to face the reality of the situation. Ignoring his infidelity would only give him the go-ahead to continue his affair. Pretending it's not happening will make him think he's getting away with his cheating.

Hou Chen had warned her not to find the other woman and it's natural for her to be curious about the mistress, but she's not worth Li Xiuying's time and energy.

However, she, together with her bodyguards arrived at the set of the film 'To You With Love' under the guise of visiting Zheng Yue. Of course, when the producer and the new director heard about her arrival, the filming was immediately put on a halt and they gave everyone a break for an early lunch. 

Lan Jinyao, who was waiting for her turn to film her scenes in her dressing room, was taken by surprise when she heard that Li Xiuying paid them a visit. Li Xiuying had mentioned to her that she'll see her one of these days and wasn't expecting that her benefactor was, in fact, planning to see her and the mistress today. 

She couldn't help but be apprehensive about how Lin Meirong will act in Li Xiuying's presence. Will she cower in fear once she sees the legal wife of her lover or would she lift her head arrogantly like usual? 

It was Zheng Yue who first greeted Li Xiuying when the three arrived on the set with the producer and director standing behind her nervously. Ah, they couldn't afford to offend this Li princess, or else she might change her mind and pull out the Li family investment.

"Ying! Why didn't you tell me you're coming to visit today? I should've prepared something for you," Zheng Yue wrapped an arm on her niece's and led her inside. They were filming outdoors but she decided to bring Ying to the part where it was cool and shaded. 

Although she was chastising Li Xiuying, her tone was teasing. She really loved her nieces and treated them as her own daughters. At a time like this, she couldn't help but miss Li Chuntao who'd been staying abroad for years now. 

"How can I do that, Auntie? I was merely passing by. I have a meeting nearby and thought I should pay you a visit. After all, didn't Uncle say I'll be in charge of your filming commitments these days? "

The director cleared his throat while the producer laughed nervously. Ah, why was talking to any of the Big 5 families of the capital felt like subjecting themselves to a lie detector test? Thankfully, he heard that this young miss from the Li family was kind and gentle-hearted, so different from her twin sister and uncle who were known for their fierce and strict disposition in life. 

Li Xiuying looked around and let her aunt lead her. The two were surrounded by the core members of the filming crew, with the new director explaining to Li Xiuyiung the progress of the film even if she hadn't asked anything about it. 

Li Xiuying gestured for her bodyguards to bring in the packed lunches she ordered earlier. "I hope I am not too late for lunch and not disturbing your schedule," she said to the director. 

"Nonsense, Miss Li. You are welcome to visit us anytime you wish." The producer rubbed his hands together and motioned the crew to give Li Xiuying a seat which they did while the rest of the crew enjoyed the food and were left in awe at how the Li family pampered Zheng Yue that they would even treat the rest of the crew for lunch. 

True, the lunch provided by Li Xiuying was packed lunch but it couldn't compare to the food they usually had in the set. The packed lunches that were distributed to them came from a popular five-star restaurant owned by the Shen family nearby. 

Even the scent from the dishes presented to them was enough for the crew to salivate over their lunch. Ah, the producer really made a good choice by rejecting the second lead's sponsorship and chose the Li family instead. If he didn't they wouldn't be able to enjoy and experience the taste of these delicacies which they wouldn't be able to afford with their whole month's salary. 

It was at that moment that Lin Meirong came on the set looking annoyed. She was wearing a red dress that accentuated her feminine curves that made her more appealing in one's eyes. She didn't understand why the crew suddenly decided to delay recording her scenes. Behind her, Lan Jinyao appeared while grinning like a Cheshire cat. 

Everything for the next scene was prepared yet the shooting hadn't started without a word. 

"What's happening? Why's everyone on break now?" Lin Meirong asked her assistant but the poor woman couldn't give her any answers. 

"I heard someone important arrived for an inspection today. Sister Lin, aren't you curious who could it be?" Lan Jinyao chided in. She tried hard to suppress her laughter when she noticed what Li Xiuying was wearing. 

'Hahaha. No wonder she asked me what Lin Meirong was wearing today!' she grinned inwardly. Although the dress looked like what Lin Meirong was wearing, if one paid attention to details, they would see that it wasn't really the same dress. This dress was one of the rare dresses made by Flair Apparel years ago and only five dresses were made with the same design. 

Lin Meirong scoffed and turned her face away. She couldn't help but notice that Lan Jinyao wasn't wasting her chances to rub on her sore spots. 

"How should I know? Why are they doing an inspection on short notice anyway?" 

"Oh, Miss Lan! Miss Lan! Come here and greet Lady Li!" The director yelled in their direction. 

Lan Jinyao's smile widened seeing the shocked expression on Lin Meirong's face. 

Lin Meirong gasped and was stunned in her place. Did she hear it right? Did the director just say Lady Li? Was it Li Xiuying or another member from Zheng Yue's family? 

Her questions were answered when her gaze landed on Li Xiuying who was staring back at her with a blank expression in her face. 

Li Xiuying was sitting on the director's seat with crossed legs, a hand supporting her chin. She looked like a queen, looking down on her subject. She seemed expressionless throughout the ordeal and hadn't said anything when the director called them. 

What's more, Li Xiuying was wearing a dress that's seemingly the same dress she was donning. Her face paled in realization. Had Li Xiuying found out that she was the other woman? 

Damn it! Lin Meirong cursed her luck.. No wonder she was feeling nervous and kept having an ominous feeling since morning. This was what awaited her!
