Chapter 1533: Chapter 1534: What Is She Going to Do Again
Originally, when Li Shengxiao sent the tattoo of number 67 this time, his full intent to settle accounts with the other party was transformed into them being at fault.
After all, Chu Feng dared to hire an assassin on someone else’s turf to kill, with the target being their girlfriend; the current outcome is purely deserved.
If they intervene again, given that man’s nature, he certainly wouldn’t let it go. Now that the blame is pinned solely on Chu Feng, if they get involved, there’s no telling if they might be considered the masterminds behind the stupid action.
He cast a sidelong glance at Chu Xi, maintaining his backward posture, hands in his pockets, exuding subtle coldness amidst grandeur. “You should be grateful your father didn’t succeed. The situation hasn’t escalated beyond control, or else I wouldn’t protect you either.”
Having said that, he walked away indifferently, without looking back.
Chu Xi stood in place, clenching her fists tightly, the sense of humiliation surged from her feet to the back of her head. Her rear molars ached as she bit down, nearly bleeding, yet she still didn’t release her grip, glaring at the man’s descending figure with harsh breaths. Soon she heard the voices of Jiang Chenyue and him at the corner. Her feet were pinned to the spot, downright not daring to disregard Qin Jun’s earlier warning and approach.
She stood there for a while, the cold wind tugging at the nerves in the back of her head, making them pulse. After some time, she gritted her teeth, turned, and returned to her room.
…
The next day, the sunlight pleasantly filtered through the treetops, the warm and suitable temperature was delightful, the scent of flowers in the breeze swept away the gloom of last night’s cold wind. On such a sunny day, many people were out and about, unaware of the upheaval caused in high society yesterday; to ordinary people, today was just another bright day.
A dark green Maserati stopped at the entrance of KT Entertainment, Levin and others, who had received the news first, came out eagerly to greet her.
“Miss Chu.”
The car door opened, and out came an elegant beauty, beautifully adorned, exuding grace and charm in her every move.
Seeing her, Levin’s eyes brightened further, hurriedly shaking hands with her, and said, “Hearing about you and meeting you in person are indeed different. The aura of the Oscar-winning Actress is truly impressive, it just left me stunned.”
“You’re too kind.”
Chu Xi politely shook his hand; surrounded by a group of formally dressed executives, she seemed more like the young lady of KT Entertainment than a celebrity.
Levin smiled and said, “You’re the one being too polite. You’re Boss Qin’s sister, who has just returned to the country, and you’re supporting my work by guest-starring in a role in our TV series. Besides being deeply grateful, I don’t know how to express my excitement.”
As he spoke, he led the way outside, “The press conference is about to start. Would you like to touch up your makeup? Please.”
Given Chu Xi’s special status, Levin had already learned through connections that she was the extraordinarily precious daughter of the Chu Family.
Coupled with her fame in the country, having achieved the status of Oscar-winning Actress at a young age, her willingness to guest-star in a role is sure to garner significant media and fan attention. For them, it was like saving a promotional expense. Moreover, with Chu Xi’s appeal, the status of their TV series would be elevated, eliminating concerns about getting it on the air.
It puzzled him, however—he had previously suggested she guest-star in the film they were preparing, but she refused without hesitation and unexpectedly chose Fu Ya’s TV series instead.
No matter how grandly a TV series is produced or how big the stars are, compared to films, it still counts only as the small screen.
