However, it did not turn out the way she wanted it to.
Tang Li did not appear at the birthday party in the dress she prepared for her. She did not even wear the brooch she had wanted her to. On the other hand, she was a mess when she appeared in the garden and she had even made a scene with Yuan'er. Yuan'er had fallen into the swimming pool because of her.
It was a mess too but it was different from what she had planned.
If the guests knew of her identity as Li Wenyan's illegitimate daughter, they would not side with Ou Yangqian given that Tang Li was wearing a washed-out white shirt and her hands were covered with green and blue bruises. They would think that Ou Yangqian was a wicked stepmother who always treated Tang Li unfairly.
So, she suppressed her emotions and bit her lower lip lightly. "Yuan'er is still young so she's not that sensible. Thus, I hope that you won't be angry with her if she has done anything wrong."
Ou Yangqian sounded so gentle in front of Tang Li. It made Tang Li smiled softly.
"Aunt, you don't have to speak nicely to me here. You're the president of Tian Yi. I'm just nobody who stays with you. If Yuan'er saw this, surely she will have another misunderstanding. She might come at me again!"
Then, Tang Li looked at the clock tower ahead in the distance. "It's past noon now. The dishes at the canteen might not suit your palate so, I won't ask you to stay for lunch."
Ou Yangqian was speechless.
She returned to her office that afternoon, dismissed her secretary, and closed the office door behind her. She grabbed a coffee cup from the desk and threw it onto the floor, smashing it into pieces.
She was nothing but an illegitimate daughter! How dare she be that arrogant?
Ou Yangqian closed her eyes for a while. Then, she picked up the phone on the desk after she had calmed down and called her secretary. "Call up President Zhang from Ning Mang for me."
By the time Tang Li reached the canteen, Wu Xuehan had bought two meals and was now waiting obediently for her.
During their meal, Wu Xuehan peeked at Tang Li. She could not suppress her curiosity. She raised her doubt. "Ah Li, is that beautiful lady your relative?"
Tang Li looked up when she heard that question.
"She seems to be quite rich. You asked me to leave first and I saw a Rolls-Royce by the road."
"She's not my relative," Tang Li replied. "In fact, she's my enemy."
Wu Xuehan looked at Tang Li suspiciously.
Tang Li smiled when she saw Wu Xuehan's facial expression. "I'm joking. But, it's true that her family has some kind of problem with me. She came to meet me today about her daughter."
Wu Xuehan approached her. "Did you bully her daughter?"
"Maybe."
Suddenly, Tang Li asked Wu Xuehan, "Do you know who Ou Yanghua is?"
"Who is Ou Yanghua?" Wu Xuehan was puzzled.
She did not seem to be lying. Tang Li felt that she had thought too much.
Wu Xuehan was just a country girl from a cheap art college now. Ou Yanghua would never notice her.
What about Ou Yanghua?
He was just a bastard!
Tang Li took a look at Wu Xuehan. Wu Xuehan's eyes were clear and beautiful. If Tang Li was allowed to live again, for sure Wu Xuehan deserved a better life. She should not go down the same road and die a terrible death.
The video about Tang Li's audition was spread through the entire arts college before evening that day.
Wu Xuehan realized now that the little blue hair monster was Tang Li. Wu Xuehan was so shocked that her eyes almost fell out. Everyone was stunned too including their classmates. No one could believe that the peculiar and withdrawn Tang Li would be so daring to go for the audition.
Multiple comments were posted regarding the video in the following days. All of them were praises for Tang Li but somehow there were opposing comments too.
[She's a girl whose hair is dyed blue. Clearly, she's not a nice girl!]
[What is there to be surprised about? I just don't know how many guys she has slept with to get that chance! All of you are just stupid bastards who are enjoying yourselves there without knowing the truth!]
