After asking about his basic situation, Xia Xingcheng was more optimistic about Gu Xingxi. He had good potential, like an uncut diamond.

Then Xia Xingcheng asked about Gu Xingxi's schedule for recent days. Speaking of this issue, Gu Xingxi was obviously indignant.

"I have nothing to do recently. Zhou Daiwei hasn't let me take any jobs in recent years."

Speaking of this, Gu Xingxi became more furious at Zhou Daiwei. If it weren't for Zhou Daiwei, he wouldn't be fallen like this.

Xia Xingcheng was surprised for a moment. Then she couldn't help but feel angry. She didn't expect Gu Xingxi to be buried like this.

"What about your living expenses?" Xia Xingcheng could not help but ask.

Gu Xingxi clenched his fist and released it, as if he was trying to suppress some emotions. He gnashed his teeth and said, "I've been working part-time jobs to make ends meet."

Xia Xingcheng could not help but frown when she heard this: “What happened? Didn’t the company give you basic salary? This is in the contract!"

Gu Xingxi did not respond, but his face sank. Xia Xingcheng immediately understood that Zhou Daiwei was planning to force Gu Xingxi to cave. No work, and even the basic salary was deducted. Zhou Daiwei really didn’t give Gu Xingxi a way to live!

"This is outrageous! Wait, I'll sort this out for you."

Xia Xingcheng gnashed her teeth and said. Then she took out her phone and called Zhou Daiwei directly.

Zhou Daiwei at the other end of the call didn't know Xia Xingcheng's phone number, so he didn't know it was her while he was picking up. Then he heard Xia Xingcheng’s voice. "Zhou Daiwei, you'd better send back the salary you deducted from Gu Xingxi this year, or I'll report you directly to the superior that you embezzled the actor's salary!"

Zhou Daiwei was still angry at this moment, and was even more annoyed by Xia Xingcheng's threat. He shouted angrily to the phone: "Who the fxxk are you to meddle with my business. Don't push it, fxxk off!"

Xia Xingcheng laughed angrily: "Well, don't you regret this."

Then she hung up the phone and called the manager directly.

About ten minutes later, Zhou Daiwei's phone call came in, and his tone seemed to be very angry. Zhou Daiwei gnashed his teeth and said to her, "Xia Xingcheng, remember this, you screw with me, I will make you suffer later."

"Whatever you say!"

Xia Xingcheng didn't care at all. After hanging up the phone, she waved to Gu Xingxi and said, "It's done. Your basic salary for the past year will be given to you in a few days."

Gu Xingxi froze in shock. His sister was seriously ill and needed a lot of money to cover the medical expenses. Although one year’s salary was less than 30,000 yuan, it could at least temporarily alleviate the pressing needs.

Gu Xingxi was touched, but he was used to being cold. Even now, he just said softly to Xia Xingcheng, "Thank you."

Xia Xingcheng shook her head: "You don't have to thank me. I am your agent now, so I will fight for your rights and interests. From now on, all your eating, clothing, housing and transportation, including your social media accounts, friendships, public speaking and behavior, must be arranged by me. If there is an emergency, let me know as soon as possible and I will help you to deal with it. "

"Is there any other questions? If not, then we will cooperate happily."

After saying that, Xia Xingcheng held out her hand and looked at Gu Xingxi politely and generously.

Gu Xingxi looked at Xia Xingcheng’s serious expression, which was more reassuring than Zhou Daiwei's expression of coercion and inducement, and he gradually relaxed. Gu Xingxi held out his hand and shook hers: "Happy cooperation."

Xia Xingcheng nodded with satisfaction and said to him, "Go home and rest now. Come to work at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. Don't be late."

Then Xia Xingcheng gave Gu Xingxi her contact information.

After Gu Xingxi left the office, he did not leave the company for a long time. He felt that it was like a dream.

Xia Xingcheng's words seemed still echoing in his ears, making him still doubtful. Why did Xia Xingcheng choose him? Was there still anything worth exploring in him?

He had been “frozen” out for so long that he had given himself up already…

After Gu Xingxi left, Xia Xingcheng began to organize files in her office and look up for some online resources. She was not very familiar with this company now, so she must blend in as soon as possible.

Soon after finishing these work, Xia Xingcheng went to Zhou Daiwei to get Gu Xingxi's private accounts. Logging in, changing the password, and disposing of useless things.

During that time, Zhou Daiwei made more ridicules, but Xia Xingcheng didn't care at all, because she knew that as a qualified agent, this was just the beginning.

Time flew when you were busy. When Xia Xingcheng looked up, there was no one in the company. It was already evening.

A long sigh of relief, Xia Xingcheng specially bought Bao a cake on her way home to celebrate her success in taking over her job and Bao's admission to kindergarten.

When she arrived home, Sheng Yeting was not there. Xia Xingcheng could not tell what her feelings were. She thought he would not come home, so she didn’t ask Chen Ma about it. But at dinner time, Chen Ma placed an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks on the table.

When dinner was about to start, Sheng Yeting suddenly came home. Xia Xingcheng was slightly surprised, but she did not show too much of it, but only gave a few simple greetings.

But Sheng Yeting was behaving abnormally today. He looked at Xia Xingcheng and asked, "How was your work today?"

Sheng Yeting rarely took the initiative to care about others. He was even slightly shocked by himself when he heard himself saying that. He gently lowered his eyes to hide the strange expression in his eyes, so Xia Xingcheng on the other side of the table did not see it.

"There is no problem with my work. I can handle it myself." Xia Xingcheng answered confidently.

Sheng Yeting nodded and asked no more.

Suddenly it became very quiet around the dinner table. Chen Ma felt that something was not right with them as a family. She thought Sheng Yeting was too cold, so she said to Sheng Yeting tentatively: "Young master, Bao will start kindergarten tomorrow. Do you want to take Bao to kindergarten with Xingcheng? "

Bao immediately looked up from the cake with a small piece of cream hanging on his face. He looked at Sheng Yeting expectantly: "Daddy, is that okay?"

Sheng Yeting frowned slightly and his expression changed subtly. He did not answer at once.

Xia Xingcheng was somewhat embarrassed to see this. It was true that they had a contract marriage, and Sheng Yeting had no obligations to do so. Xia Xingcheng immediately said to Bao, "Daddy is very busy. Mommy will take you."
