Sweet Wife in My Arms Chapter 198

Chapter 198: Acting Against

With a slap, she placed the cup firmly on the table, her anger evident.

At that moment, her stature was full of anger. Together with her outfit, no one would have guessed that she was a newbie in her 20s.

Even actresses who have acted for most of their lives might not have her aura.

“Concubine Mi, are you dissatisfied with me?”

Her gaze turned from indifference to harshness in an instant.

“Empress, I do not dare.” Concubine Mi straightened her back, her expression was still as unruly as before.

“Do not dare? I think you have a lot of guts.” The Empress stood up and walked in front of her. She suddenly extended her hand and held her chin in her hands. She stared deep within Concubine Mi’s eyes.

That eyes were filled with an unspeakable silent hatred, almost as if she had her life in her hands, one that had no regard for any human’s life.

After that, she lifted Concubine Mi’s head and in an instant, the elegance in her eyes turned into a cold smile. “What a pretty face, it is no wonder the emperor is so attached to you. Tell me, who gave you such rights to talk to me like this?”

“The emperor has always called me mother. Even he has to bow to me. But your back is so straight, are you going against me or showing your dissatisfaction?”

She gripped even tighter and Xiao Rongrong’s body trembled. She felt as if she had let her guard down. At this moment, she felt as if Yan Huan had brought her into the scene and in this scene, she had no means to fight back.

Her lips trembled and disorientation flashed past her eyes.

It was at this moment that she had forgotten her lines.

Of course, Yan Huan realised that Director Zheng hadn’t cut the scene and she wasn’t about to be nice to help her continue. She slowly held onto Concubine Mi’s soft face. In actual fact, it wasn’t that soft. After all, Xiao Rongrong was already 28 years old, how could her skin compare to a young lady who is 20. Even though Xiao Rongrong’s face had been carefully made-up, if one looked closely, they could see the roughness on her face and feel the pores too.

Even if that was so, she had to go against her conscience as she talked softly.

“What beautiful skin, what a young face. When I was as young as you, I didn’t have this much guts. In this palace, we do not lack beauties nor smart people.”

“Concubine Mi, don’t play games in front of me. I have gone through way more than you. Also…” She narrowed her eyes and the corner of her eyes changed rapidly. After so many years, she had given up her power and became more amicable. But at the same time, she was harsher too.

“I do not want to hear a single word from you, not a single word.”

Xiao Rongrong was still seated upright, and her movements were somewhat stiff intentionally. She could understand why Yan Huan had changed her lines at the last minute. If she couldn’t continue smoothly, the entire scene might need a reshoot and if that happened, her legs were about to go numb from kneeling.

She was ashamed and angry at the same time now.

She had wanted to practice on this new actress. Instead, she didn’t have the chance to practice properly before losing out to her directly. This was an embarrassing loss through and through and she realised that Yan Huan was even better than what she had heard. Her face, her eyes, her entire body. They were all an act, she was acting.
