Chapter 598 - Keeping a Low Profile

Pan Yan immediately frowned and looked around to make sure no one was around before asking in a whisper, “What the hell is going on here?”

This was Director Jiang they were talking about!

When did Xia Xibei become so close to him?

Moreover, it was not necessarily a good thing when an actress was so close to a male director.

It would be a problem if there were any rumors about this.

“You don’t have to worry.” Xia Xibei didn’t expect to scare Pan Yan with this one sentence and hurriedly explained, “I was meeting with all three of his family members before.”

“What?” Pan Yan was even more surprised. “But... You know Director Jiang’s family?”

“Of course.”

Seeing his nervous look, Xia Xibei smiled, “We met at my godmother’s store.”

It was not good for her to reveal her identity as a doctor, but it was not a lie.

“Your godmother...”

“My godmother runs a beauty salon.”

Pan Yan finally understood.

He remembered that Sister Hong indeed owned a beauty salon.

Then it was likely that Director Jiang’s wife went to the beauty salon for a treatment, and Director Jiang and their child went along, so that was how they met.

Since they were meeting in public and there were so many people together, there was no problem.

“How was Mrs. Jiang’s attitude toward you?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“It was very good,” Xia Xibei replied with a grin.

How could it be bad? She had saved their son’s life!

Seeing Xia Xibei act candidly, Pan Yan also breathed a sigh of relief.

“That’s good. However, you still have to keep a low profile in the cast.”

“Don’t worry, I know.”

Xia Xibei did not want to have high profile anyway. She was here to shoot a show, then she would go back after shooting.

“I’m helping you get new jobs now, once it’s summer break...”

“Hmm...”

The two of them talked as they returned to the hotel room.

It didn’t occur to them that Cui Tong was staying across from her. When they went in, Cui Tong and her assistant had just come out from the inside.

There were several assistants and agents around Cui Tong.

On the contrary, Xia Xibei only had Pan Yan with her. She did not even have an assistant, looking very shabby.

Xia Xibei was not without an assistant, but the assistant had a temporary family matter to deal with and took a leave of absence, coming in tomorrow.

Xia Xibei had no problem with it; it wasn’t like she couldn’t live without her assistant.

“Hello, Sister Tong,” Xia Xibei greeted her politely.

When Cui Tong saw Xia Xibei, she obviously thought of the online strife and glared at her once again. She snorted with a very bad attitude.

Xia Xibei only saw the whites of her eyes, and not even her eyes, so naturally she would not continue to be polite toward a rude person.

She turned around, using her back to face them.

Cui Tong froze for a moment before she reacted, instantly angry.

“You...”

But before she could say anything, Xia Xibei walked in.

The door slammed shut, instantly leaving her dumbfounded.

“A little newcomer! How dare you give me an attitude?!”

Cui Tong was so angry that she stomped her feet.

This was too much! Didn’t this little newcomer know anything about respecting her seniors?!

Her assistants knew what kind of character she was and hurried to comfort her, lest it become a big deal.

The chaos outside did not affect Xia Xibei at all. She checked the room to make sure it was okay before she opened the suitcase and started to unpack her things.

Pan Yan stood aside, his face a little difficult, but finally he just said, “You should be careful not to confront her head-on.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll be careful.”

She did not expect that the confrontation between the two would come so quickly.
