What did Tang Xin mean by that? Thinking of what Tang Xin had said to him before entering the changing room, Yang Hua’s heartbeat sped up again. It was so fast that he felt like his heart was about to jump out of his mouth.

Even though Yang Hua rarely came into contact with the Internet, even if Yang Hua was a traditional and conservative man, he had at least heard such jokes from his classmates. One day, a man went to a woman’s house. The woman said to the man, “I’m going to take a shower, and I won’t lock the door. Don’t peek, or you are a beast.” Then, as expected, the man was very gentlemanly and did not peek. However, after the woman took a shower for half an hour, she came out and said angrily to the man, “You’re worse than a beast.”

Countless strange thoughts spun in Yang Hua’s mind. Ever since he entered Tang Xin’s villa, his mind had not been clear for more than a minute.

“No, no, no! I’d rather be worse than a beast than be a beast!” Yang Hua kept wiping his face with his hands and muttered to himself as if he was reciting scriptures.

He didn’t know how many clothes Tang Xin had changed in the changing room, but when she came out again, it had been almost half an hour.

Tang Xin, who reappeared in front of Yang Hua, changed into a very fitting spaghetti strap dress. Although her shoulders and skin were still exposed, and the pink undergarment that was the same color as the dress could be seen through the dress, it was naturally far less lethal than the bikini just now.

Yang Hua, who had already experienced the bikini test, was able to ignore this level of attack. However, when he saw Tang Xin walk in front of him, Yang Hua, who was still imagining things, was still stunned and speechless.

“Can you tell me now?” Tang Xin did not seem to have any intention of accusing Yang Hua of being worse than a beast. She just sat down beside him and said with a faint smile.

“Yes, yes.” Yang Hua quickly nodded and sorted out his messy thoughts. After sorting out the content in his heart, he said, “The favor I want you to help me with is actually related to the production team of ‘The Third Kind of Human’.”

“Oh, the production team… Are you trying to help Wang Ruoxi?” Tang Xin had also heard about Wang Ruoxi in the morning, so when Yang Hua opened his mouth, she naturally thought of her.

“Yes, but also no. I want to help Wang Ruoxi, but it’s not just Wang Ruoxi.” Yang Hua had already thought about how to explain the situation to Tang Xin on the way here, so he spoke calmly and methodically.

“What happened? From what you’re saying, it seems like something big is going to happen in the production team.” Tang Xin looked at Yang Hua curiously.

“Didn’t you know that Qi Yuying is going to be fired too?” Yang Hua was a little surprised. He felt that this matter should be known by the entire crew.

“Qi Yuying?” Hearing this name, Tang Xin was surprised. “How could she be fired? This script was her creation. Unless she didn’t want to write it, who else could fire her? Besides, Director Zhang dotes on her like his own daughter. How could he agree to fire her?”

“That’s a long story.” Yang Hua sighed and told Tang Xin the news he heard from Feng Xiuying in the morning. Even Hu Changyou and Li Hongwei’s plan to deal with Qi Yuying was included.

“Is what you said true?” Tang Xin also gradually became serious. She looked at Yang Hua seriously and asked.

“I heard it from a friend, but I don’t think she would lie to me.”

“Mhm, Hu Changyou…” Tang Xin frowned and said to herself, “I know a little about him. In the past, he had been an assistant director for several big-name directors and had even worked as a stage manager in a few big films. He didn’t have much ability, but he had a lot of connections in the industry. The TV station probably recruited him to be the chief editor of an interview program because of this.”

“Then are you able to help?” Yang Hua asked anxiously.

“Wang Ruoxi’s matter is simple. But Qi Yuying…” Tang Xin lowered her head and bit her lips hard. Then, she suddenly raised her head and said resolutely, “I’ll help you! I’ll call Manager Wang later. He has a much deeper relationship in the industry than Hu Changyou. It won’t be a big problem for Qi Yuying to find a few directors who want the script.”

Seeing Tang Xin’s expression, Yang Hua knew that if she helped him, she would definitely sacrifice a lot. “Is it very difficult?” he asked.

“Don’t worry. Since you’ve asked me to help, I’ll do anything I can to help.” Tang Xin looked at Yang Hua, her face flushed.

“If it’s too difficult, then forget it. Really.” Yang Hua shook his head.

Although he didn’t want Qi Yuying to lose her job, he also didn’t want to make things difficult for Tang Xin. Initially, he felt that asking Tang Xin for help was already too much. If she had to suffer a huge loss to help him, he would not be willing to do so no matter what. After all, Yang Hua knew Qi Yuying’s situation very well. Even if she lost her job, her savings were enough for her to live for a long time without worrying about how to survive. During this time, Yang Hua believed that Qi Yuying would definitely be able to think of other ways to make a living.

What if it really didn’t work? At most, he’ll support her for the rest of her life… Bah, until she got married. A strange thought appeared in Yang Hua’s mind again.

“What do you mean by difficult?” Tang Xin said with a smile. She stared at Yang Hua as if she was studying his face carefully. “You helped me so many times in the past. Why would it be difficult for me to help you once?”

“When have I ever helped you ‘so many times’…” Yang Hua made Tang Xin’s face turn red again. He remembered that he had only saved her once in high school.

“You don’t remember? Hehe, I still remember clearly what happened in elementary school and junior high.” Tang Xin smiled, and she blushed harder. “When I was in elementary school, those boys bullied me all the time. Every time I told you, you would help me fight them after school. Hehe, it was really funny when I thought about it. You actually fought with so many of them alone. Also, in junior high, a few boys wanted to mess with me after school. In the end, you suddenly ran out and fought with them, causing them to chase after you. There were also a few times…”

“Ah?” As Tang Xin spoke, Yang Hua was confused.

Did he do those things? His memory was completely messed up by Tang Xin.

It was true that he had fought with students from other classes and even higher grades from time to time in elementary school. However, firstly, he was definitely not the one who initiated the fight. Secondly, it was definitely not because he listened to Tang Xin. Moreover, the number of times he talked to Tang Xin in elementary school was rare. Yang Hua had no memory of what they had talked about. Moreover, there was no need to mention when he was in junior high school. Tang Xin had never appeared in his memory throughout junior high school.

As for the things that Tang Xin said, he remembered most of them.

Could it really be such a coincidence? Those unlucky incidents had suddenly become an act of helping others instead. Yang Hua found it unbelievable.
