Xia Xingcheng turned around and saw Song Yang standing beside Zhou Daiwei. She realized immediately that they were just here to be sarcastic and to look for opportunities to mock them.

At this time, Gu Xingxi heard his voice and stopped his training. He saw the tense expression on Xia Xingcheng's face and quickly came over.

Zhou Daiwei saw that and continued his ridicule: "Xia Xingcheng, the actor you managed is really being protective of you. I came, and he just stopped training. Maybe you two should cook up some scandal, perhaps some reporter is willing to write about you two."

Then he pursed his lips into a contemptuous smile. Song Yang was standing beside him and echoing him with a dry laugh.

When it comes to personal relationship between the two of them, Xia Xingcheng’s face darkened immediately and she retorted angrily: "I don't like making things out of nothing as you do, but I'll take your advice. I do have a new talent in mind, I am planning to make them an on-screen couple."

Zhou Daiwei heard that and disapproved even more. He shook his head with laughter and told Xia Xingcheng not to be delusional to make useless efforts.

"I think you’d better forget about it. He doesn't even have something to show on local TV. Are you going to find a walk-on as an on-screen lover for him?"Zhou Daiwei said sarcastically, with a smug look on his face.

Did not want to be outdone, Xia Xingcheng directly retorted: "Walk-ons are also actors, there is nothing wrong to treat them the same way. They are not like someone, who threw a lot of money and did a lot of networking, but the final product is still not good at all. I heard you are making a "coming out" plan to attract attention. Good for you!"

Xia Xingcheng was rubbing in his face unceremoniously. Zhou Daiwei's face became livid, he gnashed his teeth and looked at the proud woman in front of him angrily. His ferocious expression looked like he was gonna bite her head off.

"I was just saying, and you already lost your cool?" Xia Xingcheng raised her eyebrows and sneered: “Look at your long face. It is so ugly that I don't think you should go out in public, you will scary people. If you frightened my little friend, can you bear the consequences?"

Saying that, Xia Xingcheng waved her hand and patted Gu Xingxi's cheek. Her absolute momentum succeeded in holding Zhou Daiwei down.

"You... I was referring to the matter. What are you doing by attacking me personally?" Zhou Daiwei was so furious and began to speak incoherently.

Several of their colleagues who were watching, laughed out loud at Zhou Daiwei's antics, which made him feel even more humiliated.

Xia Xingcheng decided to take it easy, she had succeeded in fighting back and her goal was achieved already.

"Don't be afraid. We'll stay away from this kind of people!" She said, taking Gu Xingxi's arm and walking away.

On the way to her office, she leaned close to Gu Xingxi and whispered, "Did you see everything I just showed you there?"

Gu Xingxi was stunned for a bit, then after he realized what Xia Xingcheng meant, he nodded hurriedly.

Xia Xingcheng laughed with a lot of confidence: "Very good. You should be like me in the future. Someone bullies you, you fight back. Don’t be afraid of getting in trouble. Whatever happens, I will handle it for you!"

"I understand, thank you!"Gu Xingxi spoke quickly in response, he looked at Xia Xingcheng with eyes filled with worship.

The successful battle led Xia Xingcheng into a good mood, she enjoyed striking villains unrestrainedly, and for her it was simply joyful.

Then she made a few comments and suggestions on Gu Xingxi’s training, and told him to take a break first then to continue his training.

It was afternoon already. Because of her confidence in Gu Xingxi, Xia Xingcheng decided to leave work early today and enjoy some time of her own.

After exhorting Gu Xingxi, she walked out of her office early. But unexpectedly, she bumped into someone at the gate of the building.

Xia Xingcheng apologized unconsciously and immediately: "Sorry, Sir, I didn't mean to. Pardon me!"

It was just a trivial matter, she was already gonna leave when she heard the man said coldly: "Are you blind?"

His words made Xia Xingcheng angry. She couldn't believe that in addition to Zhou Daiwei, that asshole, there was another one of his kind in the company.

She had made a sincere apology already, but he was not forgiving and responded with rude words.

Xia Xingcheng said angrily and stubbornly: "Look, I have apologized. And you were the one walking without looking. I did not mean to bump into you."

Listening to the sharp voice of Xia Xingcheng, at first, Sheng Chenfeng started to pat his suit in disgust, and then just as he was looking up to retort, he saw a beautiful and charming face.

She was dignified and elegant, sharp but enchanting. To face such a rare beauty, Sheng Chenfeng suddenly fell for her.

‘Is she the newest model the company recruited?’

Sheng Chenfeng changed his attitude completely, and switched his tone into flattery suddenly. He asked with a big smile: "Sorry, Miss, I was being impolite. Please forgive me. Do you work in this company?"

"Yes, I do."Xia Xingcheng answered him with a glance, but his changing attitude made Xia Xingcheng disgusted even more.

Sheng Chenfeng rolled his dark eyes and continued to smile and ask obsequiously, "Well, I didn't catch your name. But do you know who I am?"

Because Sheng Chenfeng left her a very bad first impression, Xia Xingcheng was extremely disgusted by his malicious flattery.

She frowned a little and answered in an indifferent tone: "It doesn't matter to me who you are. I'm sorry, Sir, but I'm not interested. If there isn't anything else, I’m gonna go now. "

Xia Xingcheng said and left without looking back. She just wanted to get away from this completely uncultured man as far as possible.

Sheng Chenfeng watched her walking away gradually. Knowing that it was he who had offended her first, he went to the front desk to ask for Xia Xingcheng's identity.

When he was told that Xia Xingcheng was the new agent, he could not help but feel surprised. He didn't expect the company to hire such a sharp yet beautiful girl.

Now it would not be boring for him to come to work.

Xia Xingcheng, of course, did not know that she had been targeted by Sheng Chenfeng by accident. She got in a taxi near the company and went home directly.

Recently, because of Gu Xingxi, she had been really tense, and she did not have the time to relax. It was not easy for her to find this early time to rest. Xia Xingcheng decided to take a bath to relax.

At this time, Bao was still at kindergarten. Xia Xingcheng knew that Sheng Yeting should still be at his company, and the servants would not come over to the guest room. So Xia Xingcheng took off her clothes directly, and went into the bathroom with just a bath towel wrapping around her.

Recently, Xia Xingcheng was so tired, she just wanted to take a bath and go to bed to get a good sleep.

Warm water hitting on her body made her feel so good. Until she was coming out of the bath, she regretted it immediately. It was freezing! Why didn't she bring in some clothes?

It was a long distance between the bathroom and her wardrobe. Xia Xingcheng had no choice but to wrap herself in the bath towel and step out.
