Chapter 120: You just want to play with me, that’s all?
"It's delicious. I haven't eaten hot pot for a long time." Xu Yang's mouth was full of light and his fox eyes were sparkling.
She changed to a pair of serving chopsticks and put the meat in the pot into his bowl. "Thank you, I want to eat as much as I want to tonight."
Shen Xingye dipped the beef into the chili sauce dish and put it in his mouth. He frowned slightly but still said, "Not bad, it tastes very good."
Xu Yang smiled and continued to put meat into his bowl.
The harmonious atmosphere was disrupted by the phone call she received. Her agent said anxiously, "Yangyang, the photo of you going home with Mr. Shen tonight was taken! Now people on the Internet are saying that you have found a sponsor, and they are saying some very unpleasant things."
Xu Yang turned sideways, covered the phone receiver and said, "Sister Jing, let's stick to the old template. Lead any topic to me and don't involve him. Got it?"
Sister Jing thought this girl was stupid. Who in the entertainment industry doesn't have a backer? Some people can't even find one even if they try their best, but she doesn't want the one that's right at her doorstep.
"Are you sure? Are you with Mr. Shen now? Why don't you ask him how he wants to handle it? What if he wants to make it public? It's not impossible to make it public. I've checked the Shen Group. It's the most powerful family in Beijing. Those second-generations have to avoid it."
Xu Yang frowned slightly. Sister Jing had already found out everything about him privately. She whispered, "Sister Jing, please don't look into this kind of thing anymore. I want to keep things pure when it comes to relationships."
"Hang up, I'm still eating hot pot."
She put her phone upside down on the ground, took a deep breath, and continued eating.
Shen Xingye guessed the content of Xu Yang and Sister Jing's conversation, and he inadvertently said, "Yangyang, the entertainment industry is a very chaotic one. If you are willing, you can choose to let me be your backer."
Xu Yang bit the soft flesh between his lips and silently put down his chopsticks, "Backer?"
In her mind, "having a backer" means "selling" herself to a financial sponsor.
He nodded.
"I can help you realize all your wishes and reach the highest position."
Xu Yang silently put down his chopsticks and asked softly, "So, in Mr. Shen's eyes, do you also think that women in our entertainment industry all look for backers? And can't have pure feelings? So, from the beginning, you just wanted to play with me, that's all?"
Shen Xingye's Adam's apple moved, his throat felt dry, and there was a fire left by the chili pepper.
He immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing and explained in time, "Yangyang, you misunderstood me. I meant that you can do anything with me. You are just a backer."
Xu Yang stood up and looked down at the smoke rising from the pot. The billowing smoke made her eyes blur and her nose felt sore. "We have different values and philosophies. You can support anyone you want, but not me."
"Thank you for your help recently!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned and left.
Shen Xingye stood up and followed her, holding her wrist, "Yangyang, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean that. I just wanted to say that the entertainment industry is very chaotic. You can choose me as your backer. I don't mean anything else."
Xu Yang's face was calm. "I don't want to hear your explanation. I'll let my agent handle the online rumors about us being photographed walking home together. It won't have any impact on you. Let it go!"
He wanted to explain again, but was interrupted by Xu Yang, "Let's save each other's face. Mr. Shen?"
After the door closed, his assistant's phone kept ringing, detailing the online incident. He instructed, "Clear all the photos online, both solo and couple photos. Also, find out which media company is responsible and shut them down immediately."
Shen Xingye was in a very depressed mood. He stared at the tightly closed door and didn't dare to knock.

The next morning.
The snow in Beijing was getting heavier. Xu Yang had originally planned to rest at home for two days before and after Christmas. After what happened last night, she asked her agency to arrange an event for her.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw an elegant woman standing at the door, carrying a rare leather bag from Emma's house and wearing a cashmere coat. The door opened and the woman asked anxiously, "Aye, tell me, how come you don't know how to take care of yourself at such a age? You've had stomachaches since you were a child when you eat chili peppers, and you still eat Sichuan hot pot. Are you thinking too much?"
Shen Xingye held onto the door frame, a faint smile still on his pale face. "Mom, why are you still going out in such heavy snow? Go home quickly."
The woman walked sideways into the house and saw the leftover hot pot on the balcony. She examined it and suddenly asked, "Who did you eat with last night?"
"one person."
"Eating alone? Why are there two bowls?" Ji Yun didn't want to dwell on this topic anymore and took out his phone. "I'll have someone come to help you clean up the house."
"No! I'll clean it up myself later. Mom, you go home first."
Ji Yun didn't make the call, but he felt that his behavior was a little strange. "When I came in just now, I saw a woman living next door. Do you know her?"
Shen Xingye lowered his eyes and said nothing.
She hesitated and changed the subject, "When will the family doctor come?"
"Mom, you forget that I am a doctor myself."
Ji Yun had indeed forgotten about this matter. She put away her phone and said, "Can you be alone? I'm going home first. I have to catch up on the drama later."
Shen Xingye waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, you can go."
Ji Yun walked out of the house and closed the door. The elevator just closed. She quickly pressed the up and down buttons and walked into the elevator.
Xu Yang roughly guessed the relationship between her and Shen Xingye, but did not say anything.
When we got to the first floor, Chengzi was already waiting at the elevator door. She rushed forward worriedly, "Yangyang, didn't you say you wouldn't work? Hey, what's wrong with your eyes?"
Xu Yang lowered his eyelashes and whispered, "Let's talk about it after we get in the car."
"Um."
Ji Yun behind her heard the voice of "Yang Yang". Could this person be the actor "Xu Yang" from the drama she was following?
If it really is me, then we are truly destined to be together.
Unfortunately, that’s definitely not the case. I heard that celebrities live in very secluded places. Besides, having two households per elevator is not safe.
Inside the car.
Xu Yang took off his hat and mask and smoothed his hair.
There is also a layer under the eyelids.
Chengzi asked in disbelief, "Yangyang, what are you doing?"
"Nothing's wrong. Just tell Sister Jing to give me more notices. I want to make more money. Only the numbers in my bank account won't deceive me."
"Yangyang, I remember you were very happy when you came home last night. Why did something seem off after a night like that? Is it Mr. Shen?"
Xu Yang put on his eye mask and said in a muffled voice, "Don't mention him anymore. If you do, your salary will be deducted."
"Oh, then let me tell you about what happened last night. After that, I won't mention him anymore. He hired someone to clean up all those photos online, and that entertainment agency was also shut down."
Xu Yang was not surprised at all. In her opinion, this was just Shen Xingye's usual method. Maybe he was using this method to tell her that he was awesome.
"Well, how much is it? Let's split it."
Orange said cautiously, "The other party didn't want it and apologized very politely."
"Oh, forget it. Don't mention him anymore. Go make some money."
"Yangyang, don't think too much."
She said calmly, "I just want to make money..."
