A few days later.
Xiyan finally finished the filming she had been working on with Ji Yanche.
Ji Yanche exaggeratedly stretched his hand forward, saying, "Sister-in-law, I’ll really miss you... Parting with you now, who knows when we’ll et again..."
"...Next week, thank you."
Next week, Mango TV would be recording a brand-new television program.
Both Xiyan and Ji Yanche were confird guests for the show; the contracts were already signed.
So what’s this guy going on about? Drama king, much?
Suddenly, Xiyan’s phone rang.
She glanced at the screen, then walked to the side to answer, "Miss Susan..."
A few days ago, she had turned down Miss Susan’s request, which she honestly felt a bit guilty about.
Now that her schedule was finally cleared, she could pay a proper visit to Miss Susan.
Thinking of this, Xiyan brightened her expression with a radiant smile, "Miss Susan, I’ll contact Ou Jue right away, and we’ll co visit you together."
Susan’s tone was indifferent. "I have sothing important to discuss with you. et at the Left Bank Café at 2 p.m."
What?
Miss Susan has sothing important to discuss with ?
I an... I’ve only t her once before, haven’t I?
What important matter could she possibly have?
Xiyan hesitated for a mont, then suggested, "I should still contact Ou Jue—"
"Xia Xiyan!" Susan’s voice sharpened with displeasure. "Do you even realize who I am? My words carry weight in the Ou Family! If you keep defying again and again, there will be consequences! If I firmly oppose you being with Xiao Jue... well, you better think carefully about that!"
These words hit Xiyan right in her weak spot.
She had worked so hard to gain Ou Jue’s mother’s approval and affection.
The last thing she wanted was soone else stepping in to ruin her relationship with Ou Jue.
Thinking of this, Xiyan gripped her phone tightly. "Alright, I understand."
-
At 2 p.m.
Xiyan arrived at the Left Bank Café as promised.
The café was quite crowded.
As soon as she entered, she saw Miss Susan already seated at a table by the window.
On reflex, Xiyan adjusted her sunglasses, then strode over.
"You’re here?" Miss Susan said indifferently. "Order sothing to drink."
Not suspecting anything, Xiyan took a sip of her ice water before asking, "Miss Susan, what do you want to talk to about?"
Susan took a sip from her own glass and sneered, "You think you’re really popular, don’t you? Do you really need sunglasses just to step outside? Who are you trying to impress?"
Xiyan froze for a mont before taking off her sunglasses. "I don’t think I’m that popular. Wearing sunglasses has nothing to do with putting on a show."
Susan let out a cold laugh. "Your level of popularity is nothing compared to Qiao Qianmo’s! Don’t flatter yourself!"
...Xiyan thought this was utterly baffling. Was she even competing with Qiao Qianmo?
"Miss Susan, what exactly do you want to discuss?"
Without mincing words, Susan said bluntly, "I want you to leave the entertainnt industry."
What?!
Xiyan was completely stunned. "Why?!"
Why? Obviously, it was for Qiao Qianmo!
Who told you to steal all her spotlight?
Susan replied, "Quit the entertainnt industry imdiately, or I’ll oppose you being with Xiao Jue."
Xiyan was about to respond when an unexpected dizziness suddenly ca over her.
Crap, crap!
