They clearly liked each other, but they couldn't be together for a long time.
Shi Xi lowered her eyes.
She wanted to respond to Xie Yunzhou's confession, but she was also afraid that Xie Yunzhou would suddenly leave.
It looks like she's trying to hook Xie Yunzhou.
But wasn't Xie Yunzhou also trying to hook her?
Both of them harbored secrets.
They wanted to get closer to each other, but a chasm separated them.
Back on set, everyone's gaze towards Shi Xi changed.
Lu Wancheng deliberately asked, "Shi Xi, what's your relationship with President Xie?"
Shi Xi looked up. "A friend."
"It's not your boyfriend, is it?" Lu Wancheng pressed.
“Not yet.” Shi Xi smiled faintly, holding a small note between her fingers and handing it to Lu Wancheng. “However, he’s not interested in you, so you should keep your WeChat account to yourself.”
Lu Wancheng was both embarrassed and ashamed, her face turning red and bruised.
Shi Xi put the note back into Lu Wancheng's pocket and walked past her.
An Zhilan sidled up to Shi Xi and handed her a bottle of hot coffee. "I didn't expect you to be so capable! Did you used to have to put up with her attitude?"
Shi Xi pursed her lips, "I was too lazy to care before."
Lu Wancheng is a newcomer, and she doesn't mind promoting other newcomers in the same production team.
But those who want to climb over her to get ahead.
Shi Xi will show no mercy.
An Zhilan reached out and massaged Shi Xi's shoulders, saying, "Ahem, if I have offended you in the past, please forgive me."
Shi Xi turned away helplessly, avoiding her hand. "What do you want to say?"
"It's nothing, I just came to bring you a bottle of coffee." An Zhilan thought of Shi Xi's personality and then added, "Her acting is bad and it's slowing things down. Why don't you talk to the director and ask him to reduce her scenes a bit?"
With Lu Wancheng's screen time reduced, An Zhilan's screen time will increase.
"I can't make that decision," Shi Xi refused decisively. "If you want to fight for it, you should talk to the director yourself."
An Zhilan: ...Okay.
I knew that currying favor with people wasn't such an easy task.
Looking at her schedule, Shi Xi invited Xie Yunzhou to go to the amusement park together in a few days.
She rejected Xie Yunzhou in front of others just now because she genuinely didn't have time.
After setting the time, Shi Xi was already thinking about what clothes to wear that day.
I think I should buy some new clothes.
If you buy new clothes, you should also buy new jewelry.
Shi Xi's thinking is divergent.
Just then, Sheng Yan called.
Shi Xi found it somewhat strange.
To be honest, she and Sheng Yan weren't very close.
Our previous conversations were all work-related.
You've got a new job?
Thinking of Shengshi Jewelry owned by the Sheng family, Shi Xi's eyes lit up, and she answered the phone.
"Do you know what Ning Yu is doing?" Sheng Yan asked without mincing words, getting straight to the point.
"Ning Yu?" Shi Xi asked in confusion, then, remembering that the two were a couple, she drawled out her question, "Why are you asking about my sister?"
Sheng Yan ignored Shi Xi's question and said, "I've seen her a few times, and she's always doing dangerous things."
Shi Xi thought of Ning Yu, a powerful figure, and wasn't surprised at all. "So?"
Sheng Yan paused for a moment, then said, "I want to know, who is Ning Yu working for?"
Is it for the sake of the Shi family?
Shi Xi thought of Ning Yu's identity; she vaguely remembered him as a songwriting genius, the captain of Team Zero, a gaming master, a miracle doctor, and a hacker...
She works for the country and earns money for herself.
Shi Xi retorted, "Why don't you go ask Ning Yu yourself?"
“She won’t say.” Sheng Yan’s answer was simple and blunt.
"Back to the original question—" Shi Xi asked, "Why are you so concerned about my sister?"
