Especially when the truth came out, the public would surely sympathize with Jiang Chengyao’s suffering.
Unsurprisingly, Jiang Chengyao’s popularity would only get higher from now on. That incident wouldn’t make much difference.
With this in mind, Xia Xingcheng could not help feeling a little touched and secretly admired the good deed she had done.
“That’s good. I’m also here today with Gu Xingxi to talk about advertising.” Xia Xingcheng responded.
Seeing the two of them being so polite, the agent immediately said with a smile: “Miss Xia is really amazing. I know Gu Xingxi is really trending these days, all because of you.”
Xia Xingcheng blushed and smiled: ” You are too kind. Gu Xingxi really has good potentials. He will become famous no matter who his agent is.”
The agent didn’t say much about this topic, but said to her, “Don’t worry, Miss Xia, you think so highly of Gu Xingxi, and so do we. We will help him whenever we can.”
Xia Xingcheng showed her gratitude immediately: “Thank you so much.”
After all, if someone really famous in the circle would help Gu Xingxi, and with his talent, as long as he could seize the opportunity, he will absolutely make it.
Jiang Chengyao chimed in: “It’s nothing. Don’t mention it.”
Xia Xingcheng nodded without further thanking him. Then Jiang Chengyao added: “Would you like to have dinner with me this weekend?”
The agent gave Xia Xingcheng an ambiguous look with a suspicious gleam in his eyes.
After all, Jiang Chengyao had always been abstinent. He didn’t have one close female friend, let alone a girlfriend.
Xia Xingcheng was also embarrassed, not because of Jiang Chengyao’s identity, but because the look in his agent’s eyes was so meaningful.
Still, she nodded politely with a smile. “Ok, let’s get together this weekend.”
She agreed because not only being polite but also wanting to find more opportunities for Gu Xingxi.
After the agreement, they chatted a little more. Then, out of the corner of her eye, Xia Xingcheng caught sight of the advertiser she wanted to talk to and smiled apologetically at Jiang Chengyao: “Excuse me. I have to get to work now. See you this weekend.”
Jiang Chengyao nodded, still smiling like a spring breeze, and without saying anything, he watched Xia Xingcheng leave.
But behind his smile, there was something more, a deep softness that no one had noticed.
…
In Sheng Yeting’s office, just after lunch, Jiang Xiyun once again walked in without warning.
He and Sheng Yeting were like brothers. Although Sheng Yeting was usually a little indifferent, he would not care too much about these trivial things.
Inside, Jiang Xiyun plunged himself on the couch and stared at the man at his desk.
Without looking up, Sheng Yeting said in a cold voice, “You are becoming more and more casual. You are forgetting about the rules.”
“Bro, I’m not your employee. I don’t have to obey some rules.” Said Jiang Xiyun.
Sheng Yeting stroke his forehead helplessly and gave him a look of indifference.
Jiang Xiyun: “…”
What happened to Sheng Yeting? Why would he seem so different?
Jiang Xiyun was suddenly left out in the cold. He immediately stood up and sat down in front of Sheng Yeting.
“Bro, although I call you bro all the time, you were really not bro-like yesterday. I was in a bad mood and brought the first-class red wine especially, but you just took it away. I was so sad the whole night thinking about this.”
Jiang Xiyun made a perfectly readable expression of grief and anguish while speaking.
Sheng Yeting, however, was unmoved. He lifted his eyelids slightly and said, “I don’t care about your sadness. You should go to someone who cares.”
Seeing that Sheng Yeting was so uncooperative, Jiang Xiyun had nothing to say but stroke his forehead.
He was different compared to Sheng Yeting. Sheng Yeting was born in a much bigger family than his. There was always a constant battle of power, which was inevitably costing Sheng Yeting a lot of energy.
But Jiang Xiyun was a bona fide, rich second generation, he was an only child. There was no pressure on him to enjoy life.
As a result, he often found his life a little dull and complained to Sheng Yeting.
Though most of the time, he was talking to himself and Sheng Yeting would get rid of him when he got annoyed.
It looked like it was going to be the same this time.
Jiang Xiyun groaned in his heart, looked up at Sheng Yeting with some reluctance, and asked: “Bro, was the wine good?”
While looking up, Jiang Xiyun was shocked as if he had discovered a new continent and stared at Sheng Yeting’s neck.
“Bro, you… Have you…”
Jiang Xiyun stared at the spot on Sheng Yeting’s neck, smiled vaguely, and realized something.
Sheng Yeting frowned a little at Jiang Xiyun’s exaggerated reaction and said, “What’s wrong?”
“Bro, you and Xia Xingcheng, last night…”
Jiang Xiyun was already too shocked to complete his sentence. It took him a great effort to organize his own words.
Just now, Jiang Xiyun happened to find a faint scratch on Sheng Yeting’s neck. It was almost invisible, but it didn’t escape Jiang Xiyun’s eyes.
Because Sheng Yeting had perfect skin, without any defects, so the scratch was especially obvious.
Jiang Xiyun, who had been there before, had realized what had happened last night if they drank the wine.
Sheng Yeting was a little stunned. He suddenly remembered that there were some red marks on his neck when he was changing his clothes. But he didn’t pay attention to it because he was in a rush.
With this in mind, Sheng Yeting’s face froze a little, “That woman really did a number on me last night.”
But it only took a second for Sheng Yeting to gather his thoughts and gave Jiang Xiyun a cold look. “Put away your dirty thoughts. I don’t need you to worry about my affairs.”
Sheng Yeting shut it down before Jiang Xiyun could get into it.
Jiang Xiyun was choked by his words and became determined to get some answers. “Bro, I promise, I won’t ask too many questions. You will only answer yes or no.”
Seeing that Sheng Yeting did not answer, Jiang Xiyun took his silence as acquiescence.
So, he couldn’t help asking boldly: “Bro, did you really get laid last night?”
For a long time, as Jiang Xiyun was thinking that Sheng Yeting became deaf so that he did not reply, he was greeted with an eye-dagger: “Get out!”
