His breath, hot and teasing, lightly spilled over her ear as he spoke—ticklish, seductive in an unspoken way.
Without waiting for Xiyan’s reaction, Ou Jue opened the car door and stepped out. The usual composed and unfazed deanor he carried seed to crumble in that mont.
Could it be that this guy is feeling shy after saying all that?
Ahaha, what an adorable tsundere!
Xiyan blinked and broke into a silly grin.
Ou Jue, you better finish things up over there quickly and co back soon!
I’ll be waiting for you obediently, promise!
-
Arica, Los Angeles, a renowned international hotel.
Wearing oversized sunglasses, Xia Shiyi stood beside her assistant, who was handling her luggage and arranging the check-in process.
anwhile, she was busy conversing with her agent.
Annoyed, Xia Shiyi said, "It’s just so minor role for a female character in the movie. Do I really need to fly all the way to Los Angeles for a re audition? I’m so famous now—be it movie resources or TV drama opportunities—there are tons of roles waiting for to choose from!"
"Young lady, what’s the matter with your brain? It’s not about whether the role is big or small—it’s about the prestige of this movie series. Do you even realize that the box office for this franchise is top-notch worldwide, not just dostically? Even if you land a marginal supporting role, it’ll elevate your status by leaps and bounds!"
The agent, sporting a stern face, said, "Take this seriously. Don’t you want more than just dostic success? Rember how your half-sister dominated over you back then? The tables have turned now—don’t you want to leave her far behind in the dust?"
This agent, famously known in worldly society as Brother Li, was actually a woman.
In her thirties, she was one of the top agents at Huayi Entertainnt.
Most of the artists under her guidance had carved out impressive careers in the entertainnt industry.
A major reason Xia Shiyi succeeded in rehabilitating her image and making a phenonal coback recently was largely thanks to Brother Li’s efforts.
As soon as "Sumr" was ntioned, Xia Shiyi’s fighting spirit ignited. "I get it. And another thing, Brother Li, stop bringing up that half-sister of mine. She’s nothing but worthless trash now. How is she even qualified to compare to ? Sure, she used to be famous—and so what? These days, I’ve outpaced her by miles. Crushed her completely!"
Just as she finished speaking, Xia Shiyi’s gaze locked onto a familiar figure in the distant crowd. That defiant aura—it couldn’t be mistaken.
Stunned, she removed her sunglasses for a clearer look.
Ou Jue!
Why is Ou Jue here?!
Under the guidance of a hotel staff mber, Ou Jue took the nearby VIP elevator, his expression calm and indifferent.
Excitedly, Xia Shiyi exclaid, "Brother Li, look! That’s Young Master Ou! He’s staying at the sa hotel as us—oh my god!"
Ou Jue’s na carried weight, commanding awe and respect no matter the social circle.
Brother Li glanced at Ou Jue’s retreating figure. "I heard that Young Master Ou is here to negotiate a significant international collaboration and is planning to stay in Los Angeles for quite so ti. Truly remarkable, such youthful accomplishnt."
Long-term stay?
Xia Shiyi’s eyes instantly lit up.
She knew it! Xia Xiyan had been bluffing all along!
Clearly, Young Master Ou had lost his mory and forgotten about Xia Xiyan. Just a few days ago, while at the police station, Xia Xiyan shalessly bragged that Ou Jue would co to confront her enemies on her behalf.
And what happened now? Turns out, Young Master Ou ca to Arica instead—how ridiculous!
Haha, lucky that I didn’t fall for her lies.
Xia Xiyan sure knows how to bluff!
She’s probably hiding sowhere in the country and crying her eyes out at this very mont!
A sly smirk curled across Xia Shiyi’s lips.
This chance encounter in Los Angeles was clearly a gift from above—an opportunity she had to seize.
She had to use this golden chance to captivate Young Master Ou completely.
And then, arm in arm with Young Master Ou, she’d show Xia Xiyan exactly who’s on top!
