Tang Yaoyao glanced at her, and narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly.
In her memory, this eldest sister had always treated her very well without the slightest neglect. However, she knew that Tang Yujiao had never been sincere.
Her sixth sense told her that Tang Yujiao was behind the scandal that had caused her career to plummet.
"Xiao Yao, follow your sister inside first."
Tang Yaoyao turned to her father with a sincere look in her eyes. She said in a low voice, "Dad, I know Mom did it for my own good. But… Can I not get married?"
Tang Shengze felt a stab of pain after hearing this.
Xiao Yao was too innocent. It was obvious that Lin Hui wanted to use her to get some benefits.
Could it be that it had something to do with Yujiao's audition tomorrow?
At the thought of this, his expression worsened.
However, he didn't want to get angry in front of his daughter. He glanced at Tang Yujiao, and said in a lowered, displeased voice, "Don't you have an audition tomorrow? Go and rest first."
Tang Yujiao shook her head, and said without a hint of unhappiness, "I've given up. My manager said I can only have a chance of joining the group with capital investment. I don't have to waste my time trying. Dad, what happened to Yao'er?"
Tang Yaoyao's eyes exuded a cold light.
Tang Yujiao didn't seem as stupid as she thought.
She should have noticed that something was wrong, and did not hesitate to give up the opportunity to audition. If she had confessed to Father first, this matter of sacrificing Tang Yaoyao to Fourth Master Xiao would have nothing to do with her.
She was so good at avoiding danger.
"Gave up?!" Lin Hui exclaimed. "How could you give up? You had high chances of turning over your career because of this drama, Jiaojiao."
As soon as she finished speaking, she received a cold stare from Tang Shengze. "Lin Hui, look at the good things you've done. Jiaojiao knows the severity of this matter. How could you do such a thing? Is Fourth Master Xiao someone you can afford to provoke?"
"I just wanted Xiao Yao to have a home—"
"Mom, say no more," Tang Yujiao interrupted her, her tone carrying a little bit of blame. "Fortunately, Xiao Yao came back safely. That's the most important thing. Mom, I think I'm going on a business trip tomorrow. Can you come with me?"
"Yes." Lin Hui nodded.
Tang Shengze only felt like what hadn't happened couldn't hurt, so he didn't stop them.
From beginning to end, Tang Yaoyao didn't say a word.
Whatever she said would be useless. After all, Lin Hui was Father's wife. Even if she cried again, Lin Hui would only fall out of favor for a short while.
And she only wanted the chance to audition for Fox Fairy.
Wouldn't it be the most satisfying revenge by winning the role they dreamed of?
Thus, she followed along. "Dad, I'm okay. Mom was just watching out for me, it was just that her idea was a little too extreme. I think I wouldn't have let you worry if I had been stronger."
Tang Yujiao glanced at her.
But Lin Hui had a bad premonition instinctively.
"Sister has always wanted the female lead of Fox Fairy. She has a business trip and can't go for the audition, but I can."
She looked at Tang Yujiao with sparkling eyes, and said in a somewhat innocent voice, "Sister, if I won the role, it would be an honor to the Tang Family, right?"
Tang Yujiao clenched her fists inadvertently. Her heart surged and her lips slightly curled. "Yes, but artists need to go for the interview with capital investment. Sister, our Tang Family has limited funds. I'm afraid you'll only suffer from such a tough blow after such a turmoil in your career."
At this moment, the most agitated person was Tang Shengze. Now that his depressed daughter had finally found her footing, he fully supported her. "Tell me, do you really want to take the role? I can sell 20% of the company's shares to help you obtain it."
