Sister Mai Na also saw him, and her facial expression immediately became cold.

Chu Chen gave a gentle smile as he said, “That was an amazing postulation by the queen manager of Skyart Entertainment. Xia Yu is indeed in for a rough ride. She offended someone she could not afford to offend. There was no way that she would come out of that unscathed.” He stopped momentarily before continuing, “Good afternoon, Mai Na and Ye Xingling. It’s nice to see both of you here.”

Sister Mai Na coldly replied, “To what do we owe the pleasure of Big Manager Chu honoring us with his presence?”

This was Skyart Entertainment’s recording studio, a good distance away from Imperial Entertainment. There was no way that Chu Chen had passed by coincidentally.

Chu Chen continued smiling, and asked, “Aren’t you going to invite me inside to sit down?”

Sister Mai Na retorted. “With what do you qualify to come into Skyart Entertainment for a seat?”

“I’m here on business. To be more accurate, I’m here to look for Ye Xingling.” Chu Chen did not lose his temper at Sister Mai Na’s taunting and explained his presence slowly. “If you’re not going to invite me inside, would you like to have the conversation with me here on the steps?”

As he spoke, he looked around.

There were crowds of people walking along the streets, though it was relatively quiet on the steps leading up the recording studio. The three of them were good-looking people, full of charisma and dressed to the nines. What’s more, Xia Ling had a face that screamed “celebrity”, and many passersby were starting to look curiously in their direction.

Sister Mai Na frowned slightly before turning to walk into the recording studio with a huff.

Xia Ling quietly followed.

Chu Chen gave a light laugh and followed slowly behind as well.

In the meeting room of the recording studio building.

A soft carpet was spread across the floor of the meeting room, and the heavy, deep-green curtains blocked out any of the outside sounds. A genuine leather sofa set was placed against the wall in the room, and Sister Mai Na walked toward the sofa set and sat down elegantly. She then turned to Chu Chen and curtly said, “Speak. What are you doing here?”

Chu Chen sat down across from Sister Mai Na, placed the crocodile skin business case by his side, and replied, “Mai Na, you’re very clever and very resourceful in getting things done. This time I underestimated you. I admit defeat.”

Sister Mai Na gave a cold laugh and said, “Cut the crap.”

Xia Ling also felt that he was speaking rubbish and turned her attention to the room temperature — as the air conditioning was tuned to too low a temperature, it was rather cold. She stood up from beside Sister Mai Na and pressed the bell to get a staff member to bring a shawl to the room as well as some roselle tea, which was Chu Chen’s most hated kind of tea.

Only then did she return to her seat.

Chu Chen was still rambling on. “… Xia Yu has already apologized on all media channels, and Imperial Entertainment is willing to admit defeat and pay the price.”

The staff brought the tea to the room.

As Chu Chen said a word of thanks to the staff as he received the tea and took a sip, his facial expression became grave… the drink was too sour and did not taste good.
