Yun Mengshi wanted to make a call but realized that she didn’t have Yun Bixue’s number. Therefore, she couldn’t vent the anger that she harbored within her.
Her security guard and manager waited in the lobby for her. They were men arranged by her backer, so she couldn’t unleash her fury on the two of them.
Yun Mengshi truly endured her anger for a long time and almost lost her mind.
After waiting for the entire morning, Yun Mengshi finally met Yun Bixue during lunch. She put on her heels and stumbled over to Yun Bixue, intending to interrogate her.
However, before Yun Mengshi could say a word, Yun Bixue stood up excitedly and hugged her. “Lin Xi, you’re finally here! I didn’t see you the past few days, so I was worried about you!”
Seeing how concerned Yun Bixue was, Yun Mengshi instantly swallowed her anger. She couldn’t decide whether she should flare up or not.
She could only lower her voice and ask, “Yun Bixue, you’re doing this on purpose, right? Why are you doing this to me?”
“Lin Xi, what do you mean? I just came to the company not long ago. What’s wrong?” Yun Bixue pretended to be innocent.
Yun Mengshi almost passed out from shock. She didn’t know that Yun Bixue could be so pretentious. Why hadn’t she realized this before?
“I have my own manager and guard, so why do you have to assign a new manager and guard for me?”
“Huh? I don’t know about that. Those were arranged by the HR department. If you’re unhappy with that, I can speak to the HR in-charge. After all, the roles are clearly divided in the company, so they must have been instructed to do so. Don’t be anxious, alright? Also, this arrangement has been made in consideration of your safety.” Yun Bixue’s words sounded as though everything had been done for Yun Mengshi’s sake. In reality, she simply wanted to place her own manager and guard by Yun Mengshi’s side to monitor her.
Yun Mengshi pinched the corners of her shirt and emphasized, “Yun Bixue, what if I want to have only my manager and guard by my side?” She wasn’t one to blindly listen to Yun Bixue’s instructions now.
Yun Bixue laughed and shrugged before answering, “Then there’s nothing I can do. I heard that the paparazzi are very interested in your past recently. Oh, right, one of the clauses on the contract states that if you break the agreement, the compensation you have to pay isn’t a small sum. You’re still too inexperienced in the entertainment scene. If you don’t want to be a celebrity, I can’t stop you either. I urge you to take a closer look at the contract.”
When she looked at the unreasonable clauses on the contract, Yun Mengshi almost coughed out blood in shock. She immediately took a break for two days and admitted herself to the hospital to rest.
Yun Bixue didn’t mind. After all, the female lead was Li Guile, and the male lead was Li Xu. Yun Mengshi was merely a chess piece in her game, a tool she’s using against Chu Fei’er.
After ending work that night, Xie Limo personally went to pick Yun Bixue up.
Yun Bixue answered the call and was so happy that she couldn’t work anymore. When she saw that Xie Limo had arrived downstairs, she immediately rushed down.
A few ladies were discussing at the entrance of her office.
“Wow! That man is too perfect. He’s so handsome!”
“I can’t even find a word to describe him. It’s a pity he looks rather poor. He’d be very worthy if he were an heir.”
“He can be our company’s next celebrity trainee. That way, he’ll be rich. He’s so perfect. I wonder if he has a girlfriend?”
When Yun Bixue heard those people discussing behind his back, her lips curled up slightly despite still feeling jealous.
She ran towards Xie Limo, who reached out his hands elegantly and wrapped them around her shoulders. “Why? Aren’t you happy to see me?”
