Chapter 367 - It's Not the Place for You

“Scumbag!” Xia Yu couldn’t help cursing. Though she knew clearly in her mind that this man had no duty to save her, she still despised people of his kind so much.

Wu Xiaogang had intended to go past her, but he stopped after hearing her voice. “Miss Xia, it is you who took the initiative to go over. Why should you vent your anger on others? Isn’t it funny?”

“What do you mean by saying that I took the initiative to go over?” Xia Yu was provoked. She turned around and glared straight at the man in front of her.

Wu Xiaogang stared back at her and looked so calm. “Isn’t it true? Otherwise, why should you come to the crew frequently? Don’t you want to gain a role through your relationship with Cai Yanyan? About this, Cai Yanyan is more honest than you. She got close to me at first because she wanted to join our company.”

Xia Yu pointed at her nose with her finger and said, “Do you mean that I am taking advantage of Cai Yanyan?”

“Isn’t it true?” Wu Xiaogang didn’t change his expression. “Is there any girl who doesn’t want to be a film star?”

“Wu Xiaogang, are you insane? I don’t have this intention. Even if I have, I won’t ask Cai Yanyan, who’s new in this industry, for help. You had a relationship with Cai Yanyan before. Didn’t she tell you that I used to be the interpreter of Li Yan, a superstar? Why should I ask Cai Yanyan for help instead of Li Yan, such a superstar?” Xia Yu was angry beyond words. Wasn’t he so arbitrary to say that all the girls wanted to be a film star?

Li Yan’s interpreter? Wu Xiaogang was stunned and stared at Xia Yu again. After a while, he said, “If so, why do you come to the crew?”

“I come to accompany Cai Yanyan.” Xia Yu glared at him harshly and then turned away, not wanting to see him.

Though Cai Yanyan had broken up with him, they were classmates after all. Didn’t he see that she got wronged in the crew?

Wu Xiaogang thought about Xia Yu’s words and kept silent for a while. Then he said, “She doesn’t need your companion, Miss Xia. You’re too innocent. Cai Yanyan knows well about what she will have to pay if she wants to enter the crew. She’s willing to pay. You’re a clever person, and you must understand it after thinking it over. Don’t go there anymore. It’s not the place for you.”

Was she willing to pay? Xia Yu felt her heart painful as if it was scratched by something.

But Wu Xiaogang’s words were plausible. A role with lines was very rare even for many people who majored in acting. Why should Cai Yanyan, an amateur, be given the opportunity of playing the third supporting actress for the first time? And then the second supporting actress?

Seeing that Xia Yu was silent, Wu Xiaogang nodded to her by courtesy and went past in front of her.

At that moment, the room door was opened. Seeing Xia Yu standing outside, Li Wen asked her to come in and then he turned around, walking to the bar counter. He took out a bottle of red wine and poured two glasses of wine.

Xia Yu looked around the room where he lived. He was alone, and his female companion who stayed with him last night was not there. Finally, her eyes rested on the figure before the bar counter.

Li Wen was not wearing a suit today. Instead, he got dressed casually, which made him look a little easy-going. A few wisps of short hair on his forehead appeared to be uncombed but sexy. His muscular lines on his face appeared to be much gentler from the side, which was rare. It seemed that he was much more charming than before.

“Young Master Li, your clothes have been dry-cleaned.” Xia Yu moved her eyes away from his body and put the bag in her hand on the tea table. When she raised her head again, he already came up to the front of her in a close distance. Xia Yu was shocked and took a step back in a panic.

Seeing that Xia Yu reacted intensively, he asked, with his beautiful sword-like eyebrows twisted a little. “You are really afraid of me.” His tone didn’t reveal his mood.

“You approached me like a specter. Anyone would be frightened.” Xia Yu answered angrily. She didn’t want to admit that she was afraid of him.

The man in front of her uplifted his eyebrows and directly dropped the topic. He handed over the glass of red wine in his hand to her.

“No, thanks. I don’t drink.”

Xia Yu refused bluntly, and then she took two steps back, trying to bypass the tea table and then leave. “I’ve sent your suit here. I still have other things to do. I’d better go now.”

“If last time is counted, I have helped you twice. Shouldn’t you treat me to dinner to convey your gratitude?” This man looked at Xia Yu with his deep eyes. He raised his head and drank up the red wine in his glass. His rosy lips dyed by the red wine looked a little sexy and seductive.

Damn man! How cheeky he was! Was it a big deal to help me when he just passed by? Nowadays, men were unworthy things. Xia Yu said to herself in her mind. Thinking of another man who left just now, she felt more disgusted in her heart.

Before Xia Yu could give her answer, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch. “It’s nearly 12 a.m. now. There’s a very good Franch restaurant in this hotel.”

The corner of Xia Yu’s mouth was twitched. Finally, she went with him to that Franch restaurant. Upon seeing the environment of it, she could tell that it was very expensive, and it might cost her over one thousand yuan. She began to feel pity for her wallet immediately.

When she saw the menu, Xia Yu felt her heart was bleeding. She secretly glared at Li Wen a few times.

The cuisine was very delicate and delicious. Additionally, the environment was excellent beyond words. If Li Wen was not the person who was sitting opposite her, Xia Yu thought she would enjoy the lunch more.

“Does the injury on your forehead get better now?” Li Wen asked while staring at her forehead, not knowing what Xia Yu was thinking now.

“Yeah, much better.” Sending the piece of foie gras into her mouth, Xia Yu raised her eyes to look at him first and then looked down.

“I’m more and more interested in you now. What should I do?” Li Wen said suddenly.

“Eh-hem, eh-hem…”

Xia Yu was choked by her slaver and coughed so heavily that she almost stopped breathing. At this moment, a warm hand stroked her back to make her feel better behind. Her coughing then ceased after a while. She glared at the man in front of her with tearful eyes which were caused by coughing. But for his words, she wouldn’t have been choked.

The man even chuckled twice and reached out his hand to stroke Xia Yu’s hair. Then he said, “You’re very interesting.”

“Young Master Li, don’t make fun of me anymore. OK?” Xia Yu said coldly. She wanted to turn around and leave at once. However, looking at the cuisine in front of her, she thought it would be such a waste if she didn’t finish it all. After all, she didn’t want to waste money.

“Why should you think I am making fun of you? I’m serious.” His black eyes looked profound as a deep pond. No one knew what he was thinking. He concealed the smile on his face and now looked serious and sober.

Xia Yu raised her hand to stroke her face. The corner of her mouth was twitched. She replied in a serious tone, “I’m not interested in you, not at all.”

After she finished her words coldly, Xia Yu stood up and paid the bill before she left.

She did have a characteristic. Li Wen squinted his eyes slightly.

Thinking of what Li Wen and Wu Xiaogang said, Xia Yu deliberately fudged Cai Yanyan in the following days. And she was indeed busy, so she didn’t keep in contact with Cai Yanyan for long.

This day, Xia Yu was busy with her work when Cai Yanyan called her and invited her to have a meal together. Though Xia Yu hesitated for a while, she finally agreed. Cai Yanyan was not a superstar now, but she still gained some fame.

“I took part in a TV show and met many celebrities this time. Additionally, I met two famous directors…” She kept talking to Xia Yu with excitement.

Xia Yu kept listening silently and echoed with a few words occasionally.

“What’s wrong with you? Don’t you feel well?” Seeing that Xia Yu was in low spirits, Cai Yanyan asked aside.

“Nothing. I just feel tired these days.” Xia Yu said and forced a smile.

Cai Yanyan knew that Tengfei was a busy company, so she didn’t suspect Xia Yu. She kept telling her some other interesting things during the shooting. After the meal, she was picked up by a car.

Cai Yanyan said to Xia Yu, “My company has arranged a car, a maid, and an assistant for me now. And I’ve moved to a new place. I’ll send you my new address later.”

Xia Yu said, “Congratulations to you.”

“It’s a bit early to congratulate me now. Save it until I win the award.” Cai Yanyan waved at Xia Yu and said, with the corners of her lip upward. “I’m going to attend an opening ceremony later. I have to go now. See you later.”

Xia Yu waved her hand to Cai Yanyan and saw her off. When she was about to leave, she heard that her phone rang twice. She took it out and saw the address sent by Cai Yanyan.

Then Xia Yu put the phone back to her bag after reading the message. She didn’t want to go back home now, so she drove to the seaside.

The wind in the early winter was blowing in her face, making her feel a little bitterly cold. But Xia Yu didn’t want to leave, and she just wanted to become sober, standing in the cold wind. There were very few people on the seaside since it was winter now. Xia Yu strolled alone on the beach, enjoying the temporary peace.

“Ah!” An extremely seductive groan from a female came into her ear.

Xia Yu was stunned and thought that she had an auditory hallucination. But immediately, a woman’s voice came again. “When will you on earth get divorced with your wife?”

“Very soon. Just wait patiently for some time.” The man’s impatient voice came.

“Wait? If I keep waiting, I will be a spinster. You must give me a definite date today. Otherwise, don’t make out with me.”

“Do you want to quit halfway? You are determined to make me impotent deliberately.”

“Let me go! Ah! You hurt me!”

This time, the woman’s voice was full of pain. It could be seen that the two figures were hooking up with each other among the reefs.

The corner of Xia Yu’s mouth was twitched. She turned around to leave, but she heard the woman was calling for help when she just walked a few steps.

She was stunned and stopped. She bit her lip. Then she just turned around again and shouted in the direction of the reefs. “Who’s there?”

Immediately, there was only the sound of the waves clapping onto the reefs around here. Xia Yu was alone now, so she didn’t dare to approach them. Just at this time, the sharp voice of a woman came again. “Mind your own business!”

Hearing these words, Xia Yu curled up her lip. What was going on? Wasn’t the woman calling for help just now? Was the man was playing with her? Xia Yu curled up her lip again and turned around to leave at once.

She was not in the mood to keep strolling anymore, so she drove her car, heading for the downtown. When she went past a hotel, the traffic light was just red. So, she pulled over. Then she saw that some familiar figures were also walking to the roadside, and most of them looked drunk from their eyes. She glanced at Li Wen with the corner of her eye, whose face appeared to be blushed. He looked drunk obviously from his eyes, and he was talking to someone.

When Xia Yu was about to withdraw her eyes, Li Wen cast a look in her direction, and then they looked into each other’s eyes. Though his deep eyes showed a delight look, Xia Yu withdrew her eyes and looked away immediately.

Li Wen walked over. “Xia Yu!”

“Young Master Li, what’s wrong?” Seeing that the man came to the front of her, she asked coldly.

“Nothing. I just want to talk to you. I like hearing your voice.”

Xia Yu pressed her lips without saying anything and looked at him with her eyebrows upward.

He chuckled twice in a low voice. “Xia Yu, you’re so interesting.”

It was the third time that he had said that Xia Yu was interesting. But Xia Yu didn’t think so at all. It was getting tougher and tougher for her to understand this man now.

Suddenly, he lowered his head and got near to Xia Yu. “What I said to you in the restaurant that day is heartfelt.”

“I won’t take it seriously.” Xia Yu was frightened. What did this boring second rich generation want to do?

“Never mind. I will wait until one day when you believe me.” The corner of Li Wen’s mouth was curved in a nice radian.

At this moment, the traffic light just turned green. Xia Yu started the car and left immediately without any reply.

Li Wen, standing at the roadside, saw off her until the car was out of his sight. Then he finally withdrew his eyes.

“Young Master Li, who’s she?” Someone beside him, who looked like a director, asked.

“My girlfriend. She’s beautiful, right?” Li Wen said proudly.

The director was shunned by his words, but he understood it at once. So, he replied, pandering to Li Wen. “Beautiful. She’s very beautiful.” The fact was that he said to himself in his heart that she wouldn’t become Li Wen’s girlfriend unless Young Master Yan agreed.
