Wanna join for a round, Director Xu?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jiayang’s eye twitched fiercely, “Your speciality is PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had indeed often seen her playing the game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if he remembered correctly, she seemed to have never won…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is also called a speciality?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah.” Xia Weibao said without batting an eyelid, “I’m really good at it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Xu wiped his sweat, not wanting to crush her spirit, so he asked further, “Besides PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, do you have any other skills?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m also amazing at Honor of Kings. Wanna play, Director Xu? I could help you rank up, but my own rank is pretty low, still in Bronze.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jiayang silently hung up the phone; he hadn’t even mentioned that he was Diamond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She, a Bronze, had the nerve to say she was amazing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Yan was speechless, “Is Xia Weibao an idiot?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was Starshine and hadn’t said anything, hadn’t bragged at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, that woman couldn’t possibly think being Bronze was something to brag about, could she?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the coffee shop, the PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds trio gazed at Xia Weibao with eyes filled with awe at how incredibly thick-skinned their leader was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao was puzzled, “What’s up? You guys want me to help you rank up, too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Help them rank up?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big Chicken’s face changed; he covered his privates and said, “I’ve got to pee, gotta run.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second Chicken immediately pulled out his phone, “Sorry, my mom’s calling me home for dinner, I have to leave first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Third Chicken looked left and right, then quickly spit out the pacifier he was chewing on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah, I dropped my pacifier.

(Don’t ask why one would demote in Bronze, because the plot demands it)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Left alone in the coffee shop, Xia Weibao was utterly confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the heck, why did they all run off one by one?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whatever, she might as well go find her little apprentice to rank up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Chu was enthusiastically studying the weight-loss prescription Xia Weibao had given Lu Huashan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was very happy to receive a call from Xia Weibao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, are you looking for me for something?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little apprentice, I’ll take you to rank up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baby Xiang Chu’s inner self was rejecting it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master, you’ve already taken me from Gold to Bronze!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when your dear Master asks, you have to suck it up and do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he had already hit rock bottom, a dead pig doesn’t fear boiling water. Let’s do it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It really must be said that Her Majesty the Empress doesn’t sweat the small stuff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had sabotaged someone’s marriage proposal, caused an uproar online, and still had the nerve to casually shut the webpage and play games.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t even care to follow what was happening online.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, Lu Hualiang kept replaying her fighting video, the murderous intent in his eyes almost tangible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of how the information he had gathered had become a pile of garbage again, it made him want to commit murder!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Li sat on the office couch, organizing documents, frighteningly trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the African sitting next to him who couldn’t stop ranting about Xia Weibao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I really don’t get what the master was thinking, actually marrying Xia Weibao. That sort of woman isn’t even fit to warm Master’s bed!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And now she’s even taken over Lu Garden, so vain!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The women in the entertainment industry are all dirty and pretentious, a bunch of weaklings that fall over with a gust of wind. Just looking at them irritates me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How is a woman who can’t stand a breeze fit for the master? Brother, don’t you agree?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Li silently observed his constantly complaining brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had become as dark as an African, yet why couldn’t his mouth learn to keep shut?\u003C\u002Fp>",693,"2026-06-06T16:21:59.440Z",1,"novelbin.me","2e83b7425c72d54bdbee8a8d7920049af6054711477957cd8309dd28418eae45","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-163","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-161",1766,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fplagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-cover.jpg"]
