Chapter 12 What is the Grudge

And the final result was, she slipped and fell from the rooftop, dead.

She wasn't sure what had caused her to slip and fall at that time.

But she had reason to suspect that Han Ming had wanted her dead from the start.

So, where exactly had she offended Han Ming?

Thinking that Mu Lingyun was considering, after a moment, Han Ming pressed, "Have you made up your mind?"

Mu Lingyun still did not answer, of course, she also couldn't figure out why exactly Han Ming wanted her dead.

"What on earth are you thinking, Mu Lingyun?" seeing that Mu Lingyun was continually not answering, Han Ming spoke with some displeasure.

Mu Lingyun raised her eyes to glance at Han Ming, the corners of her mouth hooked into a sneer, and she said coldly, "I'm wondering, between you and me, what grievances do we have?"

Han Ming looked at Mu Lingyun in surprise, asking with some disbelief, "What did you say?"

"I'm asking, did I dig up your family's ancestral grave, or did I cut off your 'life root'? What makes you go to such lengths to deal with me?" Mu Lingyun said word by word.

Han Ming was astonished that the Mu Lingyun, who had always been at his mercy, could say such things, but he still had to suppress the surprise in his heart, trying to appear sincere, "I buy things for you, offer you contracts with excellent conditions, give you the chance to play the female lead, and you say I'm dealing with you? Yunyun, we have no grudges, why would I deal with you? Did you listen to others talking nonsense?"

Mu Lingyun scoffed, "If there are no grudges, why treat me like a fool?"

"What are you talking about, Yunyun? I really don't understand," Han Ming said, frowning, for he didn't believe that Mu Lingyun had such intelligence.

"What's Lai Yuan? Does he own a mine at home? Is he a famous director who has made some good works? Is he a celebrated scholar with high integrity? None of the above, he's nothing. Such a nobody, daring to confront three hundred million capital, to drive me away? And still you say you haven't treated me like a fool?" Mu Lingyun looked at Han Ming with a cold smile hanging on her lips.

After hearing this, Han Ming was at a loss for words for a moment.

Indeed, without his instructions, even with ten times the courage, Lai Yuan wouldn't dare to drive Mu Lingyun away.

"Han Ming, why not speak straightforwardly, and stop beating around the bush, can you?" Mu Lingyun continued, "The moment you met me, it was all set up, right? You deliberately treated me well, tricked me into signing a contract, gave me the female lead in 'Thousand Faces', then instructed Lai Yuan and Song Jiao to deliberately make me NG a scene 10 times, to spread that I have poor acting skills and bad character, just to have me reviled by everyone, and then to freeze my career, right? And all these actions, leading me to the rooftop, were you trying to make me fall from there and make it look like suicide? I have nothing, having been raised in an orphanage since I was young, even my tuition was sponsored by kind people. What have I done to deserve you going to such lengths?"

Han Ming's expression turned ugly, he had not expected Mu Lingyun to guess correctly to such an extent.

Why had the person who used to be so foolish suddenly become perceptive?

He had no personal grievances with Mu Lingyun, but the person he liked hated Mu Lingyun, wishing her dead.

All he did was for the person he liked.

But of course, he couldn't tell Mu Lingyun that.

"If you won't tell me, then forget it. Whatever your reason, I don't care. Let's terminate the contract," Mu Lingyun said lightly.

What she wanted next was to break the contract, and then make Han Ming pay the price. As for the past, it didn't matter.
