Chapter 276: Xia Weiwei Comes to Find Gu Qichen

Translator: 549690339

Hearing Xia Yangyang say this, almost everyone gasped for breath.

Although Xia Yangyang was a rising star who had shot to fame overnight, how could she have the audacity to say such words?

The person standing in front of her was an international film queen, who had remained unshakeable in the entertainment industry for ten years and had numerous honors to her name.

For the past ten years, she had won countless awards, consecutively claimed the title of Best Actress for three years, and had bagged two film queen titles. She had long established herself as an indisputable queen in the industry.

Xia Yangyang issuing this challenge was equivalent to seeking her own doom.

But Shen Manbing’s face revealed a trace of a smile. She looked at Xia Yangyang as if she was watching a praying mantis trying to stop a chariot.

“Xia Yangyang, are you sure you want to challenge me?”

Even Shen Shichuan seemed taken aback: “Yangyang, don’t be stubborn.”

But Xia Yangyang simply ignored him and stated categorically: “I’ll challenge you, but if neither of us gets the Film Queen award, things from the past are erased, and you won’t trouble me in the future.”

Shen Manbing’s laugh was arrogant and cold: “If I, Shen Manbing, don’t win the Film Queen, I will retire and leave the entertainment industry forever.”

Having said this, Shen Manbing turned around and left.

The people watching couldn’t help but sigh.

Did these two really need to go this big?

It was blatantly obvious that they were gambling with their own careers.

And anyone could see that Xia Yangyang was digging her own grave.

Was the sudden fame inflating their egos to the point where they thought they could compete with the queen?

The CEO’s office.

Shen Shichuan said: “Why are you so impulsive? I can solve the issue between you and Manbing.”

Xia Yangyang laughed: “You know that I never intended to stay in the entertainment circle, and if I could leave in such a sensational manner, it would be rather grand, so it doesn’t really matter.”

Shen Shichuan was quiet for a long time before he finally sighed: “I know your heart is not in this. Forget it. You go first.”

After finishing her work, Xia Yangyang did not go home.

Instead, she went to Shengyuan Building.

Because of the previous incident with Lin Yuanyuan, when Xia Yangyang passed the secretary department, everyone was polite to her.

But something about the way they looked at Xia Yangyang seemed strange.

Xia Yangyang thought it must have been influenced by recent news but didn’t get bothered.

Her old friend, Lu Xiaoman, was very surprised when she saw Xia Yangyang: “Yangyang, was that really your little sister who just came in? She kept calling me ‘brother-in-law’, it was so annoying.”

Xia Yangyang was taken aback: “What little sister?”

Lu Xiaoman was very surprised: “Don’t you know? Half an hour ago, a girl suddenly burst into the secretary department. Her name was Xia Weiwei. She claimed to be the wife of the CEO’s sister, insisting on meeting the CEO. The CEO was in a meeting then, so we asked her to wait a bit. However, she accused us of stalling and not letting her see the CEO. She made a fuss in the secretary department for two hours, even ordering us around for tea and water. Not sure about her identity, we let her make a fuss. When the CEO finished the meeting, she kept calling him ‘brother-in-law’ and it gave me goosebumps.”

Xia Weiwei came?

Xia Yangyang’s eyebrows knitted together instantly.

She actually came to Shengyuan Building.

Xia Yangyang went straight to the CEO’s office.

Without even knocking, she just walked in.

She saw Gu Qichen writing something, then tearing off a sheet of paper and handing it to Xia Weiwei.

Xia Weiwei took it and was overjoyed: “Brother-in-law, you are so generous, our entire family is forever indebted to you. My sister is really fortunate to have married you in her previous life.”

The voice of Gu Qichen was rather indifferent: “If there’s nothing else, you can leave now.”

Yet Xia Weiwei’s voice became softer and more coy: “Brother-in-law, I waited for you in the secretary department for two hours, are you really so eager to get rid of me? Brother-in-law, I haven’t eaten anything today, I’m so hungry. Why don’t you treat me to a meal?”
