Chapter 1456: Chapter 1440: Sugar Daddy Backing (Part 2)
Miao Xuanxuan raised her hand and pointed at Zhou Xuefei and Li Jing as she spoke.
Zhou Xuefei and Li Jingâs expressions immediately changed drastically. With Miao Xuanxuan so determined to deal with them, the matter was far more serious than just being forced out of a production team. It involved their future prospects.
"Godfather..." Zhou Xuefei this time wasnât just acting; she was nearly in tears for real.
President Zhengâs face was even more grim, and he said solemnly, "President Miao, President Xiao, although Iâm not in the film industry, Iâve met many friends in the entertainment circle, and never has anyone been so disrespectful to me, Zheng Liancheng."
"That was in the past. Now youâve encountered it." Miao Xuanxuan straightforwardly didnât give Zheng Liancheng any polite words, believing formality was meaningless with such an oblivious person.
Chen Xinran felt her brain was really not functioning; Miao Xuanxuan and Xiao Yingying had offended even a company president for her. Was she really that important?
"President Miao, President Xiao, thank you for thinking so highly of me..." Chen Xin said this, her lips trembling with excitement, "But Iâm just a newcomer, still learning. You... donât need to do this for me..."
Lu Yaobing tugged at Chen Xinran and said, "Some people need to learn how to respect others. Just because theyâve acknowledged some godfather, they think they can bully others at will?"
Chapter 1441
"Who are you anyway? Donât speak nonsense here! Get lost!" Zheng Liancheng was furious. He couldnât do much against Xiao Yingying and Miao Xuanxuan, but Lu Yaobing, who looked like an ordinary girl, he certainly didnât regard. He directly vented his anger on Lu Yaobing.
"I am..." Lu Yaobing paused, not knowing how to respond for a moment. Xiao Yingying had already taken Lu Yaobingâs hand and said, "Sheâs our sister. Her words carry the same weight as ours. You tell Yaobing to get lost; that means youâre telling us to get lost too, right?"
"Ah?" Zheng Liancheng was momentarily speechless, then said, "I didnât mean it that way, President Xiao, donât misunderstand."
Xiao Yingying gave Zheng Liancheng a big eye roll and said, "Whether itâs a misunderstanding or not, weâll remember your words, President Zheng. You told our people to get lost."
Zheng Lianchengâs mouth twitched twice; Xiao Yingyingâs words were truly embarrassing for him, but if he erupted, it would seem inappropriate for his status, leaving him awkwardly stuck in that context.
Just then, another president came over and said, "What are you doing here? If thereâs anything to discuss, how about we go over there and chat together?"
This guy clearly came to mediate.
Zheng Liancheng found an out, immediately saying, "Alright, letâs go over there and talk."
Miao Xuanxuan and Xiao Yingying both nodded. Even though they were determined to proceed, they couldnât make things too awkward at the organizersâ banquet.
Before leaving, Xiao Yingying leaned close to Lu Yaobingâs ear and said, "Yaobing, feel free to do whatever you want; you have us and your mentor backing you. What do you have to fear?"
Lu Yaobing stuck out her tongue and said, "Thank you, Master Mother."
"Hehe, good luck." Xiao Yingying patted Lu Yaobingâs shoulder, then walked away with Miao Xuanxuan.
Li Jing now whispered somewhat nervously to Zhou Xuefei, "Sister Fei, what should we do now?"
Zhou Xuefei was also frowning; judging from the earlier interaction, Miao Xuanxuan and Xiao Yingying werenât planning to give face to Zheng Liancheng. If even Zheng Liancheng couldnât protect her, sheâd really be in trouble.
What frustrated her most was being thwarted by a newcomer like Chen Xinran, which she found really hard to accept.
Still, she held onto hope. While Miao Xuanxuan and Xiao Yingyingâs entertainment company was substantial and strong, Zheng Liancheng was equally formidable compared to them. She couldnât believe that Miao Xuanxuan and Xiao Yingying would give no face to Zheng Liancheng; their earlier posture might just be for show, perhaps theyâd reconcile with Zheng Liancheng later.
"Donât be afraid, with my godfather around, what can they do to us." Zhou Xuefei said quietly, then glanced at Chen Xinran and Lu Yaobing with deep resentment. She hadnât even considered if her behavior was excessive and solely attributed blame to them.
She also hadnât thought to offer soft words to Chen Xinran, just glared at Chen Xinran and Lu Yaobing venomously, then pulled Li Jing away.
After a few steps, Zhou Xuefeiâs eyes lit up, and she swayed her body toward a man in his thirties, saying sweetly, "Third Young Master Cheng, long time no see."
"Zhou Xuefei, indeed long time no see." The manâs eyes lit up and he stepped forward.
Zhou Xuefei immediately clung to the manâs arm, gently shaking it, saying, "Third Young Master Cheng, donât you think to come visit me, and I still have to go to your house to see you."
"Haha, Iâve been busy. How about... we find a place to chat first?" Third Young Master Cheng blinked, his eyes full of ambiguity.
"You bad boy, always thinking of that, and Iâve been bullied at your Chengâs familyâs place."
Third Young Master Chengâs face darkened, saying, "Oh? Who dares to bully you here? Iâm curious to see whoâs so bold."
Chen Xinran wasnât interested in paying attention to Zhou Xuefei, pulling Lu Yaobing aside and excitedly saying, "Yaobing, do you really know President Miao and President Xiao?"
Lu Yaobing chuckled lightly and said, "Yes, I told you earlier."
Chen Xinran clenched her fist and said, "How could I have believed it? By the way, what exactly is your relationship with them? They seem quite fond of you."
"Of course, they are close to me; my relationship with them is quite special." Lu Yaobing blinked and said, "But I canât tell you exactly what it is. Just know that if something concerns me, they will definitely help out."
Chen Xinran was speechless, saying, "Oh my gosh, Yaobing, youâre so incredible, with President Miao and President Xiao actually supporting you, I can hardly imagine."
Lu Yaobing took Chen Xinranâs hand and said, "So, you donât need to fear Zhou Xuefei. Everyoneâs an actor; she just entered the industry earlier and became famous a bit sooner. As long as you perform well, youâll surpass her sooner or later."
"Mm-hmm!" Chen Xinran nodded repeatedly, but quickly shook her head and said, "I am really overly excited; even if you have a good relationship with President Miao and President Xiao, if something happened to you, itâs normal for them to defend you and turn against Zhou Xuefei. But Iâm just your classmate; why would President Miao and President Xiao go against Zhou Xuefei because of me?"
Lu Yaobing said, "Itâs not just about you; itâs seeing from your experiences that Zhou Xuefei and the likes of Li Jing have questionable character. We really dislike people like them. So donât worry; youâll be safe in this production team; no one can touch you, and those two definitely wonât stay in the team."
Chen Xinranâs mouth twitched, saying, "Isnât this making too much of a fuss about such a small matter? Why not... just let it go?"
"Youâre too easygoing. If you donât teach people like them a lesson, theyâll keep causing you trouble. So we need to properly deal with them; donât be bullied and then speak good on their behalf."
At this point, Third Young Master Cheng brought Zhou Xuefei directly over to Chen Xinran and Lu Yaobing. Zhou Xuefei pointed at the two of them and said, "Itâs them."
Third Young Master Cheng saw the two were beauties; his eyes also lit up, his mind quickly changed, yet his face remained stern, and he said, "How dare you provoke my friend?"
Seeing that Lu Yaobing and Chen Xinran appeared unfamiliar with Third Young Master Cheng, Zhou Xuefei proudly said, "This is Third Young Master Cheng from the Cheng Family, hmph!"
