Chapter 71: WeChat Password

Xia Wanyuan looked at Jun Shiling in surprise. Jun Shiling had easily taken a person’s head with a flick of his fingers.

Xiao Bao wanted to lean over and play with Jun Shiling, but he was stopped by Jun Shiling’s hand. “Your eyes can’t take it. Don’t look.”

“Hmph, bad Daddy. Fine, I won’t look.” Xiao Bao pouted and sat down with his back facing Jun Shiling, ignoring his father.

“Do you play this too?” No matter how she looked at it, Jun Shiling didn’t seem like someone who would play games in private.

“No, it’s my first time playing.” As Jun Shiling spoke, he had already gotten Xia Wanyuan’s score to increase to 9-7. Her teammate, who had been scolding Xia Wanyuan, fell silent.

“Amazing.” Xia Wanyuan sighed. As expected, an intelligent person was good at everything.

Jun Shiling received Xia Wanyuan’s praise, and with Xia Wanyuan watching from the side, he did not show it on his face. However, his actions became even more ruthless, beating the opponent until he surrendered.

“Impressive.” Looking at the words’ victory ‘on the phone screen, the corners of Xia Wanyuan’s eyes curved into a smile. Jun Shiling turned his head and met Xia Wanyuan’s phoenix eyes, which were filled with smiles. His breathing paused.

“I’ll give you my account number. Help me play when you’re free.”

As soon as she said this, Xia Wanyuan felt that something was wrong. It seemed that she had been too casual with Jun Shiling recently. Such a request was not logical to the busy Jun Shiling.

“Are you sure?”

Upon hearing this, Jun Shiling stared intently at Xia Wanyuan. There was a deep darkness in his eyes that Xia Wanyuan could not understand.

“If you don’t mind?” Xia Wanyuan was a little confused by Jun Shiling’s attitude, so she followed his words.

“I have time to help you.” Unexpectedly, Jun Shiling agreed very quickly.

“Give me your WeChat password.” Jun Shiling took out his phone and downloaded the game.

As a result, Big Boss Jun’s phone, which only had a few apps all year round, finally welcomed a new partner.

There was finally some space for him to play with the high-quality phone that had hundreds of GB.

“Huh? Oh.” Logging into the game did seem to require authorization. Anyway, there was nothing shameful in her WeChat, so Xia Wanyuan simply entered the password into Jun Shiling’s phone.

Jun Shiling’s eyes flashed as he watched Xia Wanyuan input the password into his phone step by step.

“It’s done.” Xia Wanyuan looked at the time after typing the password. It was time to sleep. “Xiao Bao, it’s time to sleep.”

“Okay, Mommy.”

Xiao Bao obediently put down the comic book and opened his arms to Xia Wanyuan, planting a kiss on her face that smelled like milk.

Then Xiao Bao turned to look at Jun Shiling and snorted provocatively. “Daddy, you’re bad. I’m not kissing you today!”

……

Jun Shiling’s expression darkened. He suddenly felt that there was no need to implement quality education in this family. This little dumpling was getting mischievous. It was time to beat him up.

Qing University did not need to publicize much in the media to be famous. Hence, when the Qing University opened Weibo, they did not pay attention to the Internet in real time. Hence, they did not notice that the topic of the Qing University had become so popular.

It was not until the next day when he went to work and opened Weibo that he realized that there was a sea of red dots. He was so frightened that he thought that he had been discovered drinking milk tea in his office yesterday and was collectively denounced.

He clicked on it and saw that it was not to denounce him. Huh?! It was actually to say that there was a management loophole in the lecture.

This time, the problem was even bigger. The operator was so frightened that he hurriedly reported to the school.

It was going to be the annual student recruitment season soon, not to mention that the Qing University represented the reputation of the most prestigious university in the country. Hence, the school naturally took this matter very seriously and immediately contacted Elder Zhong to confirm it.

When Elder Zhong heard the news, he wanted to clarify it himself. “Quick, open a Weibo account for me. I want to go up and clarify.”

“Teacher, if you clarify now, the netizens will only say that Miss Xia entered the lecture through connections. It won’t be good for you or her. Why don’t you wait for the results of the Chinese Arts Competition to be released? It won’t be too late to clarify then. Anyway, it’s going to happen in the next two days.”

Li Nian had a good understanding of the matters on the Internet. After hearing what she said, Elder Zhong felt that she was right. He immediately called Professor Zhang and asked about the Chinese Art Awards. After knowing that the results would be out the day after tomorrow, Elder Zhong was relieved.

With Xia Wanyuan’s skills, he believed that it would not be a problem for her to get first place. When the time came, her status as a guest consultant in Chinese arts would be more useful than anything else.

“Hubby, you’ve worked hard. Come here, I’ll massage your shoulders.”

Seeing that Father Xia had finished his work, Han Yuan hurriedly brought over a cup of tea. She stood behind Father Xia with her belly sticking out and gently massaged his neck.

“Alright, you’re pregnant. Stop working and rest well.” Father Xia pulled Han Yuan to a chair and sat down, then carefully touched her stomach.

“Hubby, you’ve worked hard.” Han Yuan leaned into Father Xia’s arms, but her eyes were already cold. If not for the fact that she was counting on Xia Wanyuan to get some money for Father Xia’s sake and save the Xia family’s company, she would not have bothered to feign civility with Father Xia.

“Why have you been so considerate these two days?” Because of the Xia family’s company, Father Xia was so anxious that his hair had turned gray.

“There will always be a way when the time comes. I believe that you will definitely be able to make a comeback. The baby and I still need you.” Han Yuan rolled her eyes, but her actions were very passionate.

Father Xia was touched. “Don’t worry. When the child is born, I will write those properties under his name.”

At that moment, Father Xia’s phone rang.

Father Xia looked at Han Yuan awkwardly and finally picked up the phone. “Hello, Wanyuan.”

Upon hearing that it was Xia Wanyuan who had called, Han Yuan was delighted. The matter must have been settled.

“Okay.”

Father Xia hung up the phone and carefully observed Han Yuan’s expression. He realized that she did not explode upon hearing Xia Wanyuan’s name as she usually did. He was relieved. It seemed that Han Yuan had truly become much more sensible.

“Oh, it’s Wanyuan? What’s the matter with her?” Recalling how Xia Wanyuan had agreed to go and ask Jun Shiling for help the other day, Han Yuan’s smile had a hint of authenticity.

“Wanyuan said she wanted to see me about something and asked me to meet her at the company.” At this point, Father Xia was a little confused.

Xia Wanyuan had never gotten along with Han Yuan. Ever since she married into the Jun family, she rarely contacted her family. Why did she suddenly want to meet me today?

And why did she want to meet at the Xia family’s company?

“Then hurry up and go. Wanyuan probably has something important to tell you,” Han Yuan said considerately.

“Okay.” Seeing how sensible Han Yuan was, Father Xia didn’t say anything more and got up to rush to the company.

When Father Xia’s figure disappeared from the door, Han Yuan’s smile finally disappeared. She took out her phone and sent a message to the group of sisters, “I’ll treat everyone to a vacation in Europe next month.”

Chapter 72: Negotiation with Father Xia

Xia Wanyuan arrived at the Xia family’s company. Unlike the Jun Corporation, which was rich and imposing, the Xia family’s company was located in an office building in Beijing’s Fifth Ring Road.

However, in Beijing, being able to afford to rent an entire office building meant that the Xia family used to be relatively rich.

However, at that moment, the company was in a state of depression. Because the company had declared bankruptcy, many employees had already chosen another path. The company that used to be prosperous and lively could only see groups of employees packing their things and preparing to leave.

“Wanyuan?”

When Father Xia arrived at the company, he pushed the door open. If not for that extremely recognizable face, Father Xia would not dare to recognize her as his pretty daughter.

Xia Wanyuan wore a short black cardigan jacket, paired with a bright yellow velvet knee-length skirt and a pair of black high boots, making her look cold and elegant.

What surprised Father Xia even more was Xia Wanyuan’s confident and powerful aura. He had been in business for so many years, so he had naturally trained his ability to judge people very well. But at this moment, he could actually see the aura of a leader in his daughter.

Could it be that one is marked by the company one keeps? How could her marriage to Jun Shiling affect my daughter so much?

“Okay, come and sit.”

In the end, Xia Wanyuan still could not call him ‘Daddy’. Although the original owner of the body’s father was a little weak and biased, he treated the original owner of the body pretty well. Unfortunately, the soul in this body had changed to the Xia Wanyuan from a thousand years ago, and she could not bring herself to call him that.

“W-what do you want from me?” Father Xia sat in front of Xia Wanyuan hesitantly. He felt that his

“The Xia family is bankrupt, right? I can inject funds into the Xia family.”

“Really? Wanyuan, you… Is it because Master Jun is willing to help us?” Upon hearing Xia Wanyuan’s words, Father Xia was overjoyed. Didn’t Jun Shiling hate Xia Wanyuan a lot? Could it be that Xia Wanyuan had truly secured her position as Madam Jun? Thinking of this, Father Xia looked at Xia Wanyuan even more passionately.

“It’s not him, it’s me.” Seeing the light in Father Xia ‘s eyes grow brighter, Xia Wanyuan added, “But I have a condition.”

“What condition?” Father Xia was stunned.

“I want you to transfer all your shares to me.”

“What?!!” Father Xia had thought that Xia Wanyuan’s condition might be to give her some shares after the Xia family rose again, but he did not expect Xia Wanyuan to want all his shares.

“I’ll give you three days to consider. Even if you don’t give me your shares, the Xia family’s capital chain is already broken. You also know that no one will be willing to invest in this mess.” Xia Wanyuan slowly broke down Father Xia ‘s psychological defense. “Besides, are you going to watch the Xia family’s company end in your generation?”

After speaking, Xia Wanyuan observed Father Xia ‘s reaction. She estimated that this matter was about to end, so she left the office, leaving Father Xia to think alone.

As he watched Xia Wanyuan leave, Father Xia felt that this person was too unfamiliar. However, Xia Wanyuan’s words had indeed taken root in his heart and sprouted.

It was difficult for him to decide what to do with all the shares in the Xia family.

Father Xia walked down the stairs in a daze. The once lively office was now devoid of life.

When some employees saw Father Xia , they did not greet him respectfully as usual and just ignored him coldly.

“Hey, isn’t this Director Xia?”

As soon as Father Xia left the company, he met his former right-hand man, Zhou Kang. Before the Xia family went bankrupt, Zhou Kang had been very respectful to Father Xia .

Zhou Kang had strongly recommended the film investment case back then. The reason why Father Xia had invested in it was partly because he trusted his trusted aide’s judgment.

“Zhou Kang? Where are you going?” Ever since the Xia family went bankrupt, Zhou Kang had left the Xia family’s company. Although Father Xia was bitterly disappointed, he knew that everyone had to live, so he did not blame Zhou Kang too much.

“I’m going to be the finance director of Dingsheng Company opposite.” Speaking of this, Zhou Kang’s face was full of smugness, and his tone was filled with obvious pride.

“Dingsheng? You!” Dingsheng could be said to be the Xia family’s rival company. Moreover, Dingsheng had fought with the Xia family for five years. Zhou Kang could go to any company, but Father Xia could not accept going to Dingsheng.

“So what if it’s Dingsheng? Dingsheng gave me a high position and high salary. Director Xia, you’re so rich that you definitely won’t fancy them, but they’re still quite attractive to me.” Zhou Kang looked at how his former boss had fallen and could not help but feel a strong sense of superiority.

“Oh, I have to go to the company now. See you later, Director Xia.” Zhou Kang looked at his watch and greeted Father Xia symbolically. Before Father Xia could reply, he turned and left.

Xia Wanyuan looked at this subordinate who had once tried to curry favor with him. Now, he looked so arrogant because of his bankruptcy. He felt depressed. He could not help but think of Xia Wanyuan’s conditions and slowly made a decision.

At the Jun Corporation headquarters.

“President Jun, this is the investment plan for our company this quarter. Please take a look.” The director of the investment department handed the proposal to Jun Shiling nervously.

“Film?” The Jun Corporation had always been involved in this aspect. In the past years, there had also been investments in the film industry, but they did not account for much and did not account for much either. This year, the proposal submitted by the investment department had increased the investment share in the film industry.

“Yes, President Jun, after our investigation, we’ve discovered that due to the popularity of the Korean wave a few years ago, the development of the domestic entertainment industry has been very abnormal. And in the past two years, after the Korean wave subsided, the domestic film industry began to develop. The investment department thinks that there is room for investment in the current film industry.”

The change in investment in film and television this year was relatively large. The director of the investment department knew that Jun Shiling would definitely ask about this, so he took out the data that he had prepared beforehand and reported to Jun Shiling.

“Organize the film and television data for the past ten years and send them to me. You can leave first.” After hearing the investment director’s analysis, Jun Shiling did not agree, but some thoughts arose in his heart.

“Yes, President Jun.”

After the investment director left the office, Jun Shiling finished dealing with the matters that had happened in the morning. He took out his phone, logged into Xia Wanyuan’s WeChat, and clicked on King of Glory.

Lin Jing carried the lunch box into Jun Shiling’s office as usual. The moment he entered, he realized that the usually quiet office had an inappropriate sound of gaming special effects.

When Lin Jing had time, he would play games for a while. Naturally, he knew what the sound effects were. However, the sound effects appearing in Jun Shiling’s office really made him feel horrified.

But Lin Jing was still the special assistant of the Jun Corporation steadily. Even though his heart was racing, he still put away the lunch box expressionlessly and said calmly, “Young Master Jun, lunch is ready.”

“Mm.” After winning the game, Jun Shiling was about to switch off his phone when a new message popped up on WeChat.

“Wanyuan, the production team is about to enter the publicity phase. Do you have time to come out for a meal tomorrow? Let’s communicate first?”

The sender was Qin Wu.

Chapter 73: Escort

Jun Shiling raised an eyebrow. Although he knew that he was prying into Xia Wanyuan’s privacy, he could not help but click on the WeChat message.

The profile picture of this person named Qin Wu was that of a gentle and sunny man.

Looking at the message asking Xia Wanyuan to go for a meal, Jun Shiling pursed his lips and his eyes darkened.

“Who is Qin Wu?”

Lin Jing was about to leave when Jun Shiling suddenly stopped him.

It had to be said that Assistant Lin’s salary of nearly ten million dollars a year was not for nothing.

Facing Jun Shiling’s sudden question, Lin Jing went through it in his mind before quickly locking onto a document he had checked before.

“Qin Wu is a relatively well-known actor, and he’s also the male lead in the production of the Long Ballad with Madam.”

“Got it. You may leave.”

“Okay.” As long as Jun Shiling did not continue asking, Lin Jing would definitely not ask what his superior was thinking.

Jun Shiling switched off his phone and sat at the table to eat.

Qin Wu thought about it for a long time before finally using the excuse of the production team’s announcement to send Xia Wanyuan a WeChat message. However, Xia Wanyuan did not reply for a long time, so Qin Wu sent another message.

“Wanyuan, are you busy?”

His phone vibrated, and Jun Shiling glanced at it. Wanyuan? He sounded quite intimate.

There was no more message from his phone. Only Jun Shiling’s quiet chewing could be heard in the office.

“Xiao Xia, um, you need to come to the company for a while.” After leaving the Xia family’s company, Xia Wanyuan was about to return to the manor when she received a call from Chen Yun.

Xia Wanyuan arrived at the building where Creating Star Entertainment was located. It was a building with an extremely modern architectural style.

Unlike the strictness of the Jun Corporation, Star Creation Entertainment had electronic posters of its celebrities everywhere. Once they entered the hall, they saw brief introductions of their celebrities everywhere.

“Hey, isn’t this our little princess? Tsk, the little princess took time out of her busy schedule to come to the company today. The sun is rising from the west today.”

Xia Wanyuan was waiting for the elevator and reading the artist’s introduction on the wall when she suddenly heard a female voice with obvious hostility.

Xia Wanyuan turned around and saw an extremely beautiful woman. Beside her were two other similarly dressed women.

The poster of the person in front of her was hung on the wall. Xia Wanyuan recognized it immediately. This person belonged to the same company as the original owner of the body and was also considered a new popular starlet, Xie Rou.

]A beautiful woman would always have an extremely sensitive feeling towards another beautiful woman. Xie Rou didn’t feel it when Xia Wanyuan was standing there just now.

But when Xia Wanyuan turned her head just now, that pair of eyes that were like the mountains after the rain startled her subconsciously. Didn’t I hear that something had happened to Xia Wanyuan’s family? Why did I feel that this person was getting more and more beautiful?

Looking at Xia Wanyuan’s flawless skin, jealousy flashed across Xie Rou’s eyes.

“Hey, why are you ignoring me?” Based on Xia Wanyuan’s character in the past, she would explode at the slightest provocation. How could she not react after being ridiculed like this today?

“I only care about people.” Xia Wanyuan turned a deaf ear to Xie Rou’s constant provocations. Only when the elevator reached the 16th floor did Xia Wanyuan leave the elevator.

????

“What does she mean?” Xie Rou thought for a long time but still didn’t understand what Xia Wanyuan meant.

Meanwhile, the two celebrities beside her had already understood what she meant. They lowered their heads and secretly mocked Xie Rou.

It was not until they reached the office that Xie Rou reacted. “This little b*tch scolded me??”

No matter how angry Xie Rou was, it had nothing to do with Xia Wanyuan.

“Xiao Xia, you have to be considerate of the company’s difficulties, right? You can’t get a role here, the company can’t support you for nothing.”

Supervisor Jin glanced at Xia Wanyuan’s flawless face and felt a little regretful. This Xia Wanyuan was quite good-looking, but unfortunately, she could not be popular.

In the past, he could still raise her in the company and let her mess around because her family had donated funds. But now that the Xia family had stopped investing funds, he could not continue to support her for nothing.

“Then what do you need me to do?”

From the moment she entered the office, Xia Wanyuan had been quietly listening to Supervisor Jin. After understanding Supervisor Jin’s personality and his basic intentions for coming, Xia Wanyuan finally spoke.

“The company won’t be able to accept any script endorsements, so you’ll have to recommend yourself to the investors and directors.” Supervisor Jin grinned. “If you can get resources, the company will definitely do its best to nurture you.”

“Self-recommendation?”

Xia Wanyuan was still not too familiar with the rules of the entertainment industry and was somewhat puzzled.

“There’s going to be an investor’s dinner later. Come with me. If the investor thinks that you have the potential to invest, you won’t have to worry about film resources and endorsements in the future.”

As soon as Supervisor Jin finished speaking, coldness flashed across Xia Wanyuan’s eyes. For a moment, Supervisor Jin felt a fatal coldness from Xia Wanyuan. When he looked at Xia Wanyuan again in a daze, he realized that she had returned to normal.

“Okay, thank you, Supervisor Jin.”

The corners of Xia Wanyuan’s red lips curled up slightly, making her look breathtaking.

Seeing how sensible Xia Wanyuan was and how beautiful she was, Supervisor Jin was in a good mood. It seemed like the investment this time was stable.

Supervisor Jin brought Xia Wanyuan to an extremely luxurious KTV in Beijing. Although it was called a KTV, it was actually an entertainment venue that integrated all kinds of entertainment and games. It was extremely luxurious, so the people who came were either rich or noble.

“Hey, that woman is really something.”

Bo Xiao was drinking coffee by the window without interest when his friend suddenly exclaimed.

Bo Xiao pursed his lips. “Whoever you see is the best.” No one could compare to his sister-in-law in terms of beauty.

“No, I swear. Look!” His friend pulled Bo Xiao towards the door. Bo Xiao looked over reluctantly and was stunned.

“Look, don’t you think she’s especially pretty? Sigh, such a beautiful person can go anywhere with a lot of money. Why is she so stupid to be an escort?” His friend mumbled regretfully.

“What escort?” Bo Xiao was puzzled. Why was Xia Wanyuan here? And what did my friend mean by escort?

“The one beside her is Supervisor Jin from Star Creation Entertainment. I know him. He specializes in getting investors to drink with her artistes. His reputation in the industry is pretty bad. It’s a pity for this beauty.”

Seeing that Bo Xiao kept staring at the woman beside Supervisor Jin, his good friend thought that Bo Xiao had taken a fancy to that beauty. “Hey, if you like her, I’ll give you Supervisor Jin’s contact number another day. This lady is indeed of the highest quality. Even I…”

“If you want to live for a few more days, shut your mouth.” Seeing his friend getting more and more ridiculous, Bo Xiao scolded him.

Seeing that Xia Wanyuan had entered the elevator with Supervisor Jin, Bo Xiao felt that something was wrong, so he called Jun Shiling.

Chapter 74: Angry

“CEO Liang, CEO Li, I’m sorry I’m late. I’ll drink three glasses as a punishment.”

The moment Supervisor Jin pushed open the door, he had already put on a socializing smile and bowed humbly.

“Supervisor Jin, you made us wait so long. It’s not right for you not to drink the wine today.”

“I took so long to bring a beauty here today. CEO Li, please forgive me on account of our beauty.”

“Since Supervisor Jin said she’s a great beauty, I’m looking forward to it. If not for her, Supervisor Jin wouldn’t have been able to avoid these ten glasses of wine.”

In the luxurious private room, everyone was full of anticipation when they heard Supervisor Jin mention the great beauty. After all, they were very satisfied with what Supervisor Jin brought every time.

“Come, Xiao Xia, come in.”

Supervisor Jin waved at Xia Wanyuan, who took a step into the house and appeared in front of everyone.

The originally noisy private room instantly fell silent.

Xia Wanyuan was dressed in a rather cold and elegant manner that day. Her pair of long boots complemented her slender legs, and her aura was fully released. She had lightly applied makeup, but it could not hide her exquisite figure. Her beautiful eyes looked around and were overflowing with splendor.

CEO Liang, who was sitting in the middle of the room, even forgot to put down the wine glass in his hand.

“Haha, how is it? CEO Liang, CEO Li, for the sake of this beauty, I don’t have to drink anymore, right?”

Seeing CEO Liang and CEO Li’s reactions, Supervisor Jin smiled smugly. He knew that with Xia Wanyuan’s beauty, this matter would definitely succeed.

“Xiao Xia, right?” CEO Liang put down his wine glass, but his eyes were glued to Xia Wanyuan. “Come, come, come, sit here.”

With that, he pushed the woman in his arms aside. The woman glared at Xia Wanyuan with jealousy.

“I’ll just sit here.”

Instead of sitting beside CEO Liang, Xia Wanyuan sat on the sofa furthest away.

“What?” A flash of displeasure flashed across CEO Liang’s eyes as he looked at Supervisor Jin.

“Xiao Xia, there’s no one else here, so I’ll be straightforward with you. If you serve CEO Liang and CEO Li well today, you’ll naturally have an endless stream of endorsements.” At this point, there was a hint of ruthlessness in Supervisor Jin’s eyes. “If you don’t know your place, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

“Oh? I don’t understand how to serve?” The corners of Xia Wanyuan’s lips curled, but there was no hint of a smile in her eyes.

“Of course. Don’t worry, as long as you’re sensible enough, I’ll give you whatever resources you want for the endorsement,” CEO Liang said as he pulled the beauty over and kissed her on the cheek. His hand reached out to her chest and rubbed it.

Xia Wanyuan narrowed her eyes at CEO Liang’s oily appearance.

Meanwhile, in Xia Wanyuan’s bag, which no one had noticed, a small camera was constantly flashing with infrared light, recording everything that was strange in the house.

“Then I’m really sorry.” Xia Wanyuan smiled gently. Although she was magnificent, the words that came out of her mouth were cold. “I’m quite insensible.”

Oh, look. It’s understandable that this young lady is so arrogant.” The middle-aged man called CEO Li poured a glass of wine and walked over to Xia Wanyuan. “Come, Miss Xia. It’s our first time meeting. Let’s have a drink.”

A victorious smile flashed across CEO Li’s eyes as Xia Wanyuan accepted the wine glass. As long as she drank this wine, no matter how immature a person was, she would become sensible.

Xia Wanyuan slowly picked up the wine glass and was about to close in on her red lips when she suddenly splashed the entire glass of wine on CEO Li’s face. The red wine dripped with CEO Li’s hair, making him look extremely disheveled.

“You little hussy, I gave you face?” CEO Li had never been treated like this before. He was instantly enraged. He wiped the wine off his face and reached out to Xia Wanyuan, wanting to pull her into his arms.

However, Xia Wanyuan nimbly dodged his hand and kicked him, sending him flying onto the table in the middle of the room. The wine bottles on the table fell to the ground.

“You don’t know what’s good for you.” CEO Liang put down his wine glass and walked towards Xia Wanyuan with CEO Li.

They had encountered strong resistance before, but it was useless. No matter how much a weak woman resisted, she was not as strong as two 1.8 meters tall men.

At this moment, Supervisor Jin, who had brought Xia Wanyuan here, was calmly watching with folded arms. It was as if he had seen this scene countless times before.

Xia Wanyuan moved her wrist and assumed a defensive posture. It seemed like CEO Liang’s hand was about to reach Xia Wanyuan.

“Bang!”

The door of the private room was suddenly kicked open. Because she had used too much strength, it made a loud sound that shocked everyone in the private room.

“Who are you?”

Although CEO Li was called CEO, he was actually just an investor who knew how to take advantage of situations. Hence, he had never seen Jun Shiling before. He asked angrily when he saw a young man with a strong aura suddenly standing outside the door.

“C-CEO Jun?!!” Although President Liang had never seen the real Jun Shiling, as an entrepreneur who was considered successful in the country, he naturally knew what the head of the Jun family, who controlled almost all the economic connections in the country, looked like.

At that moment, Jun Shiling only saw two tall men surrounding Xia Wanyuan in the luxurious and chaotic private room. The lust in their eyes was about to overflow. One didn’t need to think to know what they were up to.

An obvious anger gathered on Jun Shiling’s usually calm face, and his deep eyes surged with waves.

Seeing that CEO Liang’s hand was almost on Xia Wanyuan, Jun Shiling strode over and pulled her behind him.

“Get lost.” Jun Shiling’s deep voice was filled with a bone-chilling coldness, which frightened the people in the room.

No matter how stupid CEO Liang and CEO Li were, they knew that they had provoked someone they shouldn’t have. When they saw Jun Shiling’s angry face, they broke out in a cold sweat, drenching their clothes.

“Yes, yes, we’ll get lost immediately.” The two of them scrambled out of the private room.

Supervisor Jin, who was lying in the corner of the sofa and watching the show, did not expect that things would turn out like this. He did not know Jun Shiling, but seeing how CEO Liang was so afraid of this person, he naturally knew that Jun Shiling had a powerful background.

When he met Jun Shiling’s cold eyes, Supervisor Jin rolled down from the sofa and hurriedly left the private room.

“I’ll be fine.”

Although Jun Shiling usually had a cold expression, Xia Wanyuan had never seen him like this. The extremely suppressed anger of Jun Shiling made Xia Wanyuan feel a little afraid.

“What do you’ll be fine?!” Jun Shiling turned around and saw Xia Wanyuan’s indifferent expression. Anger surged in his heart, and he could not help but growl at Xia Wanyuan.

After shouting, Jun Shiling seemed to realize that he had lost his composure. He restrained his anger, grabbed Xia Wanyuan’s wrist, and walked out.

At the door, Bo Xiao saw Jun Shiling pulling Xia Wanyuan out angrily. “What’s wrong?”

Jun Shiling did not reply, only pulling Xia Wanyuan out the door without stopping.

Chapter 75: Coaxing

“You’re hurting me.” Jun Shiling seemed to be trying his best to suppress his anger. He did not notice that he had grabbed Xia Wanyuan too tightly and was pulled into the car. Xia Wanyuan’s wrist was still in Jun Shiling’s grip, and she could not help but cry out in pain.

“Are you alright?” Jun Shiling only reacted after hearing Xia Wanyuan’s words and hurriedly let go of her hand.

Xia Wanyuan rolled up her sleeves, and her wrist was a little red.

When Jun Shiling saw Xia Wanyuan’s hand, the anger in his eyes dissipated and was replaced with guilt. “I’m sorry, I didn’t notice.”

“I’m fine.” It was just a little red, but it wasn’t that serious. Furthermore, Xia Wanyuan could tell that Jun Shiling was so angry because he was worried about her, so she didn’t blame Jun Shiling.

In the manor, Uncle Wang was leisurely watering the flowers when the door slowly opened and Jun Shiling’s car drove into the manor.

The car door opened and Jun Shiling got out first. Uncle Wang had watched Jun Shiling grow up, so he could naturally tell that Jun Shiling was extremely angry. He was about to go forward and ask if anything had happened.

Jun Shiling placed his hand on the car door and helped Xia Wanyuan get out.

…

Uncle Wang picked up the kettle that had been placed on the shelf.

He was already an old man, so he wouldn’t be a third wheel anymore. Let the young people settle their own problems.

After entering the house, Xia Wanyuan asked Nanny Li to prepare some food for her. After meeting Xia Fu, she went to the office. She hadn’t eaten lunch yet and was a little hungry.

Upon hearing that Xia Wanyuan had gone to that lousy place and had not even eaten lunch, the coldness on Jun Shiling’s face grew. However, considering that Xia Wanyuan was eating, he did not say anything. He took his computer and went to work under the small gazebo in the garden.

Xia Wanyuan ate her fill and finally felt her stomach warm up.

“Nanny Li, your food is getting more and more delicious.” Xia Wanyuan smiled at Nanny Li.

Nanny Li smiled kindly. “It’s good that Madam doesn’t mind.” Ever since she arrived at the manor, everyone had addressed Xia Wanyuan as Madam. Having seen how everyone treated Xia Wanyuan these few days, Nanny Li naturally had an idea of Xia Wanyuan’s status, so she had changed her way of addressing her.

“Where’s Jun Shiling?” When Xia Wanyuan returned, she could clearly sense that Jun Shiling had something to say to her. However, after she finished eating, Jun Shiling was nowhere to be seen.

“Young Master is in the gazebo in the garden.” Nanny Li recalled Jun Shiling’s expression when he had just returned and felt worried for Xia Wanyuan. “Madam, Young Master seems to be very angry. coax him.”

Xia Wanyuan also knew that she had been a little reckless today. She had even alerted Jun Shiling to come personally. If news of this were to leak, it would probably affect the Jun Corporation greatly. It was only right for Jun Shiling to be angry.

Xia Wanyuan walked to the kitchen, cut some watermelon, and placed it on a plate. Then, she carried it to the garden and looked at Jun Shiling sitting there from afar. For some reason, Xia Wanyuan could tell that Jun Shiling looked a little aggrieved from his back.

Xia Wanyuan felt that she must have seen wrongly. She laughed a little and slowly walked into the pavilion.

“Have some fruits before you continue working?”

Xia Wanyuan placed the watermelon by Jun Shiling’s hand.

Jun Shiling’s hands did not stop typing on the keyboard, and his cold side profile exuded coldness.

Seeing that Jun Shiling ignored her, Xia Wanyuan did not speak further. She sat across the table, took a book from Jun Shiling, and slowly read it.

A few minutes later, Jun Shiling looked up and saw Xia Wanyuan acting as if nothing had happened. For the first time in his life, he felt suffocated.

“Don’t you have anything to say to me?” Jun Shiling switched off his computer and stared at Xia Wanyuan with his deep eyes.

“I thought you were going to stop talking to me.” Xia Wanyuan closed her book. Her phoenix eyes curved into crescents as a gentle breeze blew past, causing the hair on her forehead to blow.

“Hmph.” Jun Shiling snorted lightly.

“I’m fine. Even if you didn’t come at the time, I still had a way to escape.” Xia Wanyuan was someone who had been on the battlefield before. Although her martial arts were not high, she still had ways to defend herself.

“There are two people this time, what if there are twenty next time?” Seeing that Xia Wanyuan did not realize the danger, Jun Shiling’s anger, which had slowly subsided, rose again.

Xia Wanyuan choked on Jun Shiling’s words. She felt that she had been too confident.

“I won’t do it again next time.” Seeing that Jun Shiling’s expression was getting worse, Xia Wanyuan’s expression turned serious. “I promise that I won’t be so reckless if something like this happens again.”

“There’s going to be a next time?”

“No, no.” Xia Wanyuan hurriedly shook her head.

“Remember to tell me first if something like this happens in the future.” Seeing that Xia Wanyuan really knew how dangerous the situation was, Jun Shiling’s expression eased a little. He thought for a moment and added, “If anything happens to you, Jun Yin will definitely be very sad.”

“Okay, thank you.” Xia Wanyuan knew that Jun Shiling was doing this for her own good. “Then can you stop being angry?”

“Mm,” Jun Shiling replied softly.

]”Have one.” Xia Wanyuan picked up a piece of watermelon and handed it to Jun Shiling with a smile on her face. The coldness on Jun Shiling dissipated after he received the watermelon.

“Can you tell me more about the topic you were talking about in Qing University? I didn’t understand some of it.” Seeing that Jun Shiling had returned to normal, Xia Wanyuan ate the watermelon in her hand in relief.

“Okay, I have some photos here. Come and take a seat.”

Xia Wanyuan sat beside Jun Shiling and looked at the data he had drawn up. Jun Shiling explained it to her patiently.

Not far away, after Uncle Wang watered the flowers, he saw Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling sitting together, looking like a match made in heaven.

Jun Shiling, who had been filled with anger and exuding a cold aura a moment ago, was now explaining things to Xia Wanyuan gently and patiently.

Uncle Wang smiled and went to water a patch of flowers with the kettle.

When Supervisor Jin returned to the office of Creating Star Entertainment, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He called CEO Liang and wanted to find out who that person was. How could he make CEO Liang so afraid? No matter what, CEO Liang was someone with a net worth of over a hundred million dollars.

“Hello? Who is it?” It seemed to be extremely chaotic on the other end of the line.

“Hello, CEO Liang, it’s Xiao Jin.”

However, unlike the usual chatter and laughter, when he heard Supervisor Jin’s voice, CEO Liang wished he had never known this person.

Thinking that the industry that he had worked so hard to build might be destroyed because of the person Manager Jin brought over, CEO Liang scolded Manager Jin fiercely on the phone.

“CEO Liang, what’s wrong?” Manager Jin was stunned.

“I’m done for. You won’t be able to recover either. Wait for it.” CEO Liang finally said something that didn’t make sense, but for some reason, it made Manager Jin’s heart turn cold.

The internet buzz caused by Jun Shiling, Xuan Sheng, and Xia Wanyuan at Qing University yesterday had yet to subside when the production team of “The Long Ballad” quietly released the promotional concept film for the drama, triggering a new round of internet buzz.
