The girlfriend pouted: "I think you're just jealous of how handsome he is. That guy just said he'd let his girlfriend eat her fill, and you, you criticize me as soon as I gain a little weight. He's handsome and treats his girlfriend so well. And look at you, hmph!"

The girlfriend snorted and stormed into the elevator. Seeing that his girlfriend was angry, the man quickly followed her in.

Bai Qianmo and Xia Wei, who had walked away, couldn't help but laugh when they heard the two arguing.

Wansheng Group

Guo Qiheng had just finished a meeting, his face cold and stern, his eyes behind his silver-rimmed glasses deep and unfathomable.

The assistant followed cautiously behind: "Boss, the relocation funds for Dongyang City have been distributed in batches, but there are still some holdouts who refuse to agree to the demolition."

"Have Vice President Zhang contact the local land administration bureau. If those holdouts are really throwing a tantrum, just bypass them. The construction start time cannot be delayed."

"Bypass them?" The assistant paused slightly, looking puzzled.

Guo Qiheng scoffed and glanced back at his assistant: "Since we can't reason with them, we don't need to pay them any attention. Except for the construction site, all other areas will have their water and electricity cut off. If they want to keep going, let them keep going. Once Dongyang Tiancheng Plaza is completed, other residential buildings will have no trouble selling. Sooner or later, the housing prices in that area will be so high that they won't be able to afford them. They'll have their day."

"I'll contact the Dongyang branch right away."

Entering the office

The assistant glanced at Guo Qiheng and quietly placed a stack of photos from the folder on the table.

"This is a photo taken during Miss Xia Wei's audition today."

Guo Qize shifted his deep gaze from the computer screen and slowly glanced at the photos on the desktop.

A dozen or so photos were laid out, showing a young couple holding hands. The girl looked shy, while the boy was handsome and bright. They were about the same age, and the two seemed very well-matched.

Staring silently at the photo, Guo Qiheng's cold face revealed little emotion.

The assistant secretly observed his boss's expression. Although the boss didn't seem to have any expression, he could clearly feel the temperature around him drop sharply.

"Ms. Xia and this person left the audition venue at Haiyue Hotel together, then went to a nearby Chinese restaurant for dinner, and afterwards the two of them... even strolled around the streets together for a while, until they parted ways half an hour ago."

Guo Qiheng's gaze fell on one of the photos. The girl's body was naturally leaning against the boy's side, hooking her arm around his. Her movements were natural and without any awkwardness.

His cold, stern eyes gradually deepened.

"How did her audition go today?"

"The fourth female lead has already been decided internally. Miss Xia Wei's audition this time is just a formality."

Which actor?

"She's an artist from Hesong Entertainment, and she has some personal grudges with Ms. Xia Wei."

Guo Qiheng remained silent for a long time, so long that his assistant thought his boss didn't intend to pay attention to the matter.

The assistant reached out to put the photos away, but the man said in a deep voice, "Go and contact the producer of the 'Green Fruit' production team later. Even if it's the fourth female lead, the most suitable actress should be chosen. If this drama relies entirely on those who bring their own funding, Wansheng's investment of 30 million will be withdrawn at any time."

The assistant's hand trembled as he picked up the photos, and he glanced at his boss.

The boss really pays close attention to Miss Xia. Ever since Miss Xia was almost bullied by Wu Zouyang last time, he has secretly sent people to protect her.

Now, for a minor role, the big boss has personally intervened?

He really can't understand his boss's actions anymore!
