Looking at the lights passing by outside the car window, Ling Xiaoxiao said to Ling Yuhang, but she did not tell him about the things she and Shen Jue had discovered when they were young, because she felt that those were in the past, and they had only met a few times now.
Have we met four times? Ling Yuhang gripped the steering wheel, thinking as he drove, "Last time we met at the amusement park, this time here, and where were we the other two times?" He glanced at his younger sister cautiously, thinking it was better not to ask, otherwise she would think that she was too nosy. What if she didn't tell him anything in the future?
It was already ten o'clock when she got home. Although she didn't do anything today, Ling Xiaoxiao still felt very tired. After saying hello to her eldest brother, she went back to her villa.
Jue: Are you home yet?
After taking a shower, Ling Xiaoxiao was drying her hair when she heard the notification tone of her phone. She picked it up and saw that it was a WeChat message from Chen Jue. She tapped the screen lightly with her nails. This was a small habit of hers. If she received a WeChat message from an important person, she would want to tap it a few times to calm herself down.
It’s Xiaoxiao: I’m here. I’ve washed my hair and am getting ready for bed. Are you home?
Jue: Not yet. I still have some things to deal with at the company. I must blow dry my hair after washing it before going to bed, otherwise I will have a headache later!
Didn't he go home and work overtime at the company? Ling Xiaoxiao was speechless. It seemed that the rumors were true. Chen Jue was an overtime maniac!
It’s Xiaoxiao: I know, you shouldn’t work overtime for too long, you should go back and rest early!
The hand that was about to pick up the document put it down when he saw this sentence. Xiaoxiao actually cared about him! Then why was he still working overtime? Go back and rest early!
Thinking of this, Chen Jue stood up and left the office, then went to the assistant's office to inform him that he could leave work.
Assistant Wang was completely bewildered. He'd just about gone to bed when his boss called, asking him to work overtime tonight! Thinking his boss was meeting his sweetheart tonight, Assistant Wang's fantasy was instantly shattered. He scrambled out of bed and rushed to the office, only to be told to go home at 10:30?
But being able to leave work at 10:30 was already a blessing for him! The look in his boss's eyes just now made him think he would be working overtime until dawn! Fearing that his boss might change his mind, Assistant Wang quickly packed up his things and followed Chen Jue downstairs.

The temperature in City A is gradually dropping. The sky, which was sunny a few days ago, is now cloudy and rainy every day, and the sky looks gloomy.
"It has been raining every day recently, and the temperature has dropped. I have no passion for work and feel drowsy!" Jing Xiaojing yawned. She used to sleep until she woke up naturally at home, but now after coming to the company, she goes to work on time at nine o'clock every day. She is more diligent than when she was in school!
"City A is fine. Didn't you see on the news that people in City H are wrapping themselves in blankets before going to work? At least you have a car to drive, so you don't have to wrap yourself in blankets." Ling Xiaoxiao lay on the table. She played Landlord last night and played too late. She didn't want to come to work today, but today was the day Ma Weiya went to the crew to start filming, and she had to be there as the boss!
Going out wrapped in a blanket? Jing Xiaojing checked her phone, a bit puzzled. Is it really that cold? Then she saw people riding electric scooters wrapped in blankets, and some people traveling, shivering from the sudden drop in temperature!
"I suddenly feel a little relieved. I was planning to go out and have fun, otherwise I would have ended up like these people." Jing Xiaojing had originally planned to take a few days off to go out and have fun, but the company's first artist was about to hold a launch ceremony. How could she miss such a sacred moment? So she decided to go out next month!
In the three-bedroom apartment, Qin Xueyi had just gotten up and was lying on the sofa, applying a facial mask and turning on the TV.
"Director Wang's long-awaited film, 'Asking the Immortal,' finally held its opening ceremony today. The leading actress is Best Actress Kong Mingna. Miss Kong, who won the Best Actress title just last year, is collaborating with Director Wang again. I wonder if she'll win the Best Actress title again this year?"
"Hello everyone, I'm Kong Mingna. I'm really excited to be working with Director Wang again. I hope everyone will support 'Asking the Immortal'!"
Hearing this, Qin Xueyi sat up and took off the mask on her face. When she was playing the female lead, Kong Mingna was just a supporting role. It was just because she was lucky that she was not signed in China. Otherwise, how could she become the queen of the screen?
"This lady, does she look familiar to everyone? Yes, she is Miss Ma Weiya! She starred in a youth idol drama back then and was a household name. However, she later retired from the stage temporarily due to poor health. Now we can finally see her again!"
"Hello everyone, I don't know if you still remember me. Due to some reasons, I left my favorite entertainment industry, but now I am back! I will definitely give a better performance and not let down those who trust me!" Ma Weiya's eyes were firm. She originally thought that she would never have the chance to appear in front of the public again and would never be able to touch her favorite career again.
When Xingyao first approached her, she actually thought he was a liar. After all, many such companies had contacted her over the years, asking her to pay a lot of money, and then disappeared.
She really wanted to stand in the spotlight again, so when everyone around her thought that Xingyao was also a liar, she resolutely signed Xingyao, which gave her the opportunity to appear in the public eye again!
What?! Hua Xia is now pushing Ma Weiya? Qin Xueyi looked at the person on the TV and almost threw the remote control at him! Hua Xia did something so disgusting to her, and they're still okay with just paying her liquidated damages?! What a wishful thinking!
After changing her clothes, Qin Xueyi drove to China in a hurry. She wanted to know what was going to happen with the investment she made to China after she was promised to keep Ma Weiya hidden!
In the Huaxia CEO's office, he also saw the opening ceremony and saw Ma Weiya there! He was very impressed with Ma Weiya's acting skills. If it weren't for Qin Xueyi, they might have made Ma Weiya a movie queen long ago!
But it cannot be said that Qin Xueyi doesn’t like Ma Weiya. It should be said that Qin Xueyi doesn’t like those who have better acting skills than her, so she forced away many talented actors in China!
This is also the reason why China’s business was obviously thriving at the beginning, but is now in deficit!
"What you promised me before doesn't count anymore, right?" Qin Xueyi ignored the people outside and pushed open the door of the Huaxia president's house, staring at the person inside with a dark look.
