“President Jiang? I didn’t dare to recognize you just now. So it’s really you! Why are you free to attend such a film banquet today? Yo! Isn’t this Xia Wei? Why do you look so angry? Don’t tell me you don’t know President Jiang? You saved his life on the show last time?”
Chen Yuan took a few steps forward with Xin Xin beside him and interrupted Jiang Xiao’s apology to Xia Wei.
The smile on his face did not reach his eyes. On the surface, he looked like he was helping others out, but only he knew what he was thinking!
Xin Xin’s gaze darted back and forth between Xia Wei and Jiang Xiao. A very sinister idea slowly formed in her heart. She had a gentle smile on her face, but she didn’t speak kindly. “Previously, I saw that you kept sticking to Brother Jian Tan the entire night. I thought you more or less knew to restrain yourself. 1 didn’t expect that your character of seducing men wouldn’t change!”
As Xin Xin spoke, she let go of Chen Yuan’s hand. The smile on her lips turned into sarcasm. She continued without any pause, “Why are you pretending not to know Mr. Jiang? You saved his life on the show previously and even kissed him without any sense of propriety. Isn’t it a little too hypocritical to pretend not to know him now? Let me think. Don’t tell me this is another tactic of you playing hard to get to manipulate men? Is this how you treat Teacher Jian Tan too? Good tactic, Xia Wei. Impressive!”
After Xin Xin finished speaking, Xia Wei slowly let go of her wrist and frowned. Xia Wei lowered her head and looked at her. “Does speaking up for President Jiang make you look like a saint? Let’s not talk about whether I really didn’t recognize him. May I ask if this matter has anything to do with you, Xin Xin, and you, Chen Yuan?”
“The two of you are so nosy. Why don’t I see the upper echelons of City A distributing medals for good people and good deeds to you? So what if I stick to Jian Tan? Are you jealous? Then you can be envious. He isn’t willing to pay attention to you even if you want to stick to him!”
As Xia Wei spoke, she glanced at Chen Yuan and sneered speechlessly. “Forget it. You can’t even control your mouth. I don’t expect you to control your nosy ‘little princess’. Hurry up and get lost with her. Don’t embarrass yourself here!”
After listening to Xia Wei’s warning, Chen Yuan first raised his hand to stop Xin Xin in case she did something wrong on impulse. Then, he looked at Xia Wei with a mocking smile and retorted, “We just can’t stand you playing with President Jiang like this. Why did you say that she likes to meddle in other people’s business? If everyone is as unreasonable as you and tramples on other people’s kindness as trash, how can this society still function?”
“Besides, Xin Xin is right. Didn’t you want to tie Jian Tan up while casting a net everywhere to find yourself a new target? Isn’t this your style all along? Why don’t you dare to admit what you should do? Anyway, everyone here knows your character very well. You don’t have to act!”
“Jian Tan is really devoted to you. To think that I said so much to him ‘sincerely’ previously, but it was useless! Heh, how interesting!”
Xia Wei treated Chen Yuan’s words as nonsense. However, when she heard his last two sentences, Xia Wei quickly thought of something and immediately looked up at him.
“What did you say?” Xia Wei asked coldly.
Chen Yuan naturally wouldn’t let her have her way. After glancing at Xia Wei disdainfully, he turned to look at Jiang Xiao, who had been silent and listening to them. “President Jiang, I’ll tell you the truth now. Please don’t take offense!”
“Xia Wei used to be a signed artist under Starlight. Our company canceled our contract with her because of some of her bad habits in her private life. She also bears a grudge and keeps attacking our company and some of the artists under us in her daily life. Previously, on [Heartthrob TA], she worked with Jian Tan to plot to eliminate us. That is a powerful proof!”
“The reason why I’m telling you this is because I don’t want you to follow in Jian Tan’s footsteps.. After all, it’s enough for Jian Tan to be the only one who has lost his rationality after being bewitched by her! A woman with such a bad character and no moral standards really doesn’t deserve your sincere gratitude!”
