Chapter 614: What Makes Her More Compatible Than Me
"I knew it!"
Ni Ni, who had deliberately hidden far away to spy, discovered that her "bestie" had indeed been intercepted by that "hyper-aggressive" Sister Tian Tian.
She immediately struck a boxer's stance, looking as though her own judgment was beyond question.
Although as today's leading lady, sneaking around and hiding in the back was a bit embarrassing, she now felt she had truly made the most correct decision.
She had discovered that Bai Liang, this guy, was toxic—not only was he himself bizarre, but the girls who frequently appeared around him were also not quite right.
Originally, after the entertainment circle's era of the "Four Dan and Double Bing" gradually passed, even when female stars tore into each other, they did it with grace.
Unless pushed to the wall, basically none of them wanted anyone to know they were "pushed."
But in the past two years, the wind had started to feel increasingly off. Ni Ni did a little digging and found that the core of it all was that demon Bai Liang.
A lot of bizarre, huge blowouts were all caused by him.
The most massive one was, of course, the years-long crossfire between the two beauties of Xinjiang; the other contenders also actively rallied without falling behind.
It single-handedly created a feeling of "Renaissance" in the entertainment circle!
As if with "getting Bai Liang" as the goal, a grand catfighting era had begun.
When Bai Liang hadn't appeared yet, Ni Ni had interacted with Sister Tian Tian before too—the old her never had this kind of initiative and aggression.
Regardless of how her attack power was, her subjective initiative had been pulled up.
The current "rich and noble flower of the human world" was like a rose that had grown thorns.
See, Yang Tianbao had been pricked until she bled.
She could use her seniority and status to pressure Dodo and the others with no way out, but that set had zero use against Sister Tian Tian.
Sister Tian Tian could even counter-pressure her!
When you debuted you were just a young model, but when sister here debuted, Zhang Yadong was producing her album and Ning Hao was directing her title-track music video! What level are you to come swaggering over here?!
Scram!
Don't look at how Yang Tianbao is already a divorced mother—her actual age is still a few months younger than Sister Tian Tian.
So after coming over and meeting Sister Tian Tian, her very first line was to call out "Tian Tian jie."
That line nearly made the originally happy-go-lucky Sister Tian Tian explode!
Who's she calling jie? Who's she calling jie?!
Although she liked making Bai Liang call her jie, she didn't like same-age female stars—especially Yang Tianbao, who had married, had a kid, and then divorced—calling her jie; it made her seem not young either, as if she'd had children.
Wasn't that just implying she was old?
The retreat step was directly banned, the probing step was outright abandoned—she flipped her face on the spot.
In fact, Sister Tian Tian's judgment wasn't really off; Yang Tianbao wasn't exactly wronged either. She had come precisely with the goal of shoving the roadblock out of the way.
Yang Tianbao was also holding in her anger—hell, with my looks, I'm just flirting with a man! How is it this much trouble?!
Before, when Gulina Zha jumped up and pointed at her nose cursing her, she endured it; last time, when that evil little kitty made snide remarks at her, she also endured it.
On one hand, she was used to enduring—on the show she never gave anyone a cold face, habitually keeping a smile on; on the other hand, it was also because Bai Liang was standing right there poking around, and she didn't really want to show an overly outrageous side.
But she discovered that if she didn't stir up trouble, others would brazenly give her attitude.
Once and again, twice and thrice?
Hey! She's a top-tier female star!
Gulina Zha bullied her, and Li Yitong dared to join in the fun—then bring it on!
She had climbed up by doing exactly this back in the day—who's afraid of whom?!
Sister Tian Tian: I'm not afraid either!
She's just a divorced bad woman! She'd "beat up" one before!
Some battles start just a little bit absurdly.
A signal, a form of address, a glance.
Just like how a Northeastern bro can start a fight with just one "What're you looking at?"
The fuses on Sister Tian Tian and Yang Tianbao burned extremely fast too—the two were like each holding an instant-detonation mine, exploding on the spot!
Although she felt Sister Tian Tian was a bit off at this moment, Yang Tianbao said she didn't care anymore~
With a slight smile she said: "Tian Tian jie, I saw your news online before and wanted to share some experience with you, but what a pity~"
Yang Tianbao's original intent was naturally to mock Sister Tian Tian for having no official status at all, yet the pregnancy scandal had come out first.
Almost ended up with an unwed pregnancy~
But Sister Tian Tian's clever little brain spun and she thought of what her most "trending" topic online recently was.
She immediately got even angrier: how dare you rub salt in the wound?!
She wanted to get pregnant too!
"Melon-head!" Sister Tian Tian first muttered softly, as if the word could grant her the power to fight while keeping her head clear.
She had to remind herself this was someone else's turf, she absolutely couldn't embarrass herself.
So she first quickly organized her words in dialect in her head, then "translated" them out:
"Baby jie, you do have experience—faster than anyone at everything, and faster at divorce too."
Yang Tianbao's face immediately darkened, but she quickly suppressed it: "Tian Tian jie, can't be helped~ I got married very early, and my relationship announcement was pretty early too."
"And then you divorced."
"…It's all just a part of life. Starting over is also to meet better scenery—experience it early, meet it early. Some things, if you wait until you're over thirty to do, that's late!"
"Then experience it again and meet again, right? You're quite something~"
"…"
One Seeing Meng Meng going all-out with firepower, one twisting words into all sorts of snide shapes.
But Sister Tian Tian was at a bit of a disadvantage, because she spoke relatively slowly and didn't have many words.
Of course, her advantage was that her endless variations never strayed from the core—she seized on the divorce and attacked hard.
The news that Yang Tianbao was no longer Madam Huang's man had already spread through the circle recently.
And Sister Tian Tian was quite skilled at attacking the mother of her rival's child. Many of the lines she'd used to go after Big Mi Mi at the *The Wandering Earth* celebration banquet could simply be recycled.
But Yang Tianbao naturally had her weak spot too—she couldn't bring herself to openly mention the relationship between Sister Tian Tian and Bai Liang.
So she couldn't be as blunt as her opponent.
Otherwise, one line like "What's your relationship with Bai Liang? Does he acknowledge it? When's the official announcement?" might have ended the match on the spot.
But a smart woman would never do that, because it would hand the other side a perfect excuse for a "palace coup."
If she really said it, Sister Tian Tian might even have to thank her.
Some things are hard to say yourself, limited by all sorts of reasons, but when someone else says them for you—well, that's just wonderful.
Some Misses are just waiting for exactly that kind of person.
And a player like Yang Tianbao naturally wouldn't do that favor~
So she was doomed to fight an unfair battle. Bai Liang stood a few meters away, making small talk with people—even without saying a single word, he was already helping Sister Tian Tian play favorites.
Having gathered all the conditions—playing favorites, the complete form of her dialect, observing catfights, and hard-won experience—Sister Tian Tian actually managed to gain the upper hand in her "trash-talk duel" with Yang Tianbao.
Especially those occasional lines in a Shaanxi accent—they broke through people's defenses in no time!
Just as the two of them finished matching up and pulled a "Duel Space," Unlike Ni Ni finally seized her chance and quietly slipped up behind Bai Liang.
Bai Liang's tall frame and broad shoulders easily shielded her.
