It would be best if this got to the headlines. Let’s see how Xu Jiayang will lose face!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this thought, Li Cheng felt even more proud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, his gaze fell upon Xia Weibao’s face, and he was startled for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to admit, this woman was really beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And her figure was beyond reproach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she could be with Xu Jiayang, why couldn’t she be with him, Li Cheng?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that thought, Li Cheng’s gaze towards Xia Weibao became lecherous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked up to Xia Weibao and lowered his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss Xia, I have a drama in preparation, and the leading lady hasn’t been decided yet. How about…I treat you to a drink?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such an obvious tone caused Xia Weibao’s face to instantly turn cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She suddenly smiled, a captivating and dazzling smile that blinded Li Cheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This woman was truly exceptional; if he could spend a night of spring with her, even as a ghost, he would be considered debonair!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he smiled even more ambiguously, “Miss Xia, as long as you are willing, the leading role in my next drama is yours.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao’s eyes drifted down, landing on his greasy belly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She almost threw up the dinner she had digested the night before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss Xia, what are you thinking about?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m thinking, being both directors, why is Director Xu so handsome, yet you turned out to be a piece of char siu?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it’s the greasy kind of char siu that looks disgusting just by seeing it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Cheng’s face instantly turned sour—he was given face and yet didn’t take it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xia Weibao, don’t push your luck. You really think you’re a movie queen? Who knows how many people have played with this worn-out trash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stop putting on airs!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Believe it or not, I can tell the media right now that you offered to sleep with them for a role, and let your reputation be ruined!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was but a whore common to all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was her honor that he was willing to bend the rules for her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was very low, but Xu Jiayang was close enough to hear it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes showed some sympathy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who gave him the courage to set his sights on Xia Weibao?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those three men dominated the military, political, and business spheres.

How can Xu Jiayang compare with me? How many times did you sleep with him for him to give you the leading role in a web drama?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just follow me, and I guarantee you’ll enjoy the good life… Yuk, what’s that delightful scent?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao smiled with an ambiguous intent, and rubbed her fingertip under her nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Naturally, it’s something good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had prepared it a few days ago and didn’t know how effective it would be, so it was just right to test it on this pig.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s going on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a middle-aged man in a suit walked over, surrounded by two bodyguards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had an arrogant attitude and a face full of impatience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The receptionist immediately presented the two cards, and then explained the whole situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“General Manager, they are making unreasonable trouble and insisted on seeing you; I had no choice,” said the receptionist with a hint of complaint, shifting the blame entirely onto Xia Weibao and her company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CREATORS’ THOUGHTS\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>AtlasStudios\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From 15 Feb 2020, Coins spent on books that aren’t selected will be refunded within 30 days.
