Yao Yin B*tch Get Out of the Entertainment Circle Today: “OMG, OMG! Was Anna abused?! Did everyone notice the injury on Anna’s wrist?!”
Anna Needs Hugs]: “Yao Yin B*tch is going too far! Anna, if you’re being threatened, please blink!”
Anna is the Only Heroine in My Heart: “After watching this video, I’m truly furious! Anna, how can you be so kind and soft-hearted? The fact that Yao Zhenzhen stole your role has been confirmed. No matter how much she struggles, she can’t make a comeback! All of Anna’s fans, charge forward for me! Curse that btch Yao Yin Btch and make her get out of the entertainment industry!”
One video stirred up a thousand waves. Yao Anna’s fans were incredibly angry after watching the video, shedding their usual easy-going nature and fiercely flooding Yao Zhenzhen’s Weibo to engage in a bloody battle with her formidable fans!
Although Yao Zhenzhen’s fans were strong fighters, Yao Anna’s fans simply outnumbered them. Over two million fans battling fifty thousand fans, and with the added Rage BUFF, the smaller group was instantly crushed to dust in less than ten minutes!
“Ding dong, ding dong,” the constant sound of Weibo notifications came from the phone in her pocket. At this moment, Yao Zhenzhen’s face was pale. She didn’t dare to take out her phone to look at the messages.
“Thud!”
“Dad! What’s wrong with you… Don’t scare me!”
“Master! Butler! Quick, call an ambulance! The Master has fainted!”
The Yao family was instantly thrown into chaos due to Yao Guangming’s collapse!
…Meanwhile, on the other side, Yao Anna and Shen Xi had driven away from the Yao family home. Yao Anna was sitting in the passenger seat, scrolling through Weibo on her phone!
Seeing that the video she had just posted less than half an hour ago had once again topped the trending searches, Yao Anna curled her red lips, her eyes filled with a smile, feeling extremely pleased!
Shen Xi didn’t know that the situation online had completely changed. She kept her eyes straight ahead, focused on the road, and said to the Omega beside her, “Cong Ling has given instructions. Regarding the subsequent equity transfer, I will continue to be responsible for it. Miss Yao can rest assured and join the filming crew.”
“Mhm, I’m very relieved.”
Yao Anna was looking at the comments section. Seeing that both passers-by and her fans were unanimously telling Yao Zhenzhen to get out of the entertainment circle, she smiled like a fox.
Hearing the perfunctory tone in Yao Anna’s voice, Shen Xi frowned and couldn’t help but glance at Yao Anna. From her angle, she could see the Weibo interface on Yao Anna’s phone screen. Confused, she asked curiously, “What Weibo post are you looking at that makes you smile so happily?”
“Nothing, I saw a funny blogger post a cold joke. It’s quite interesting.”
Yao Anna unhurriedly put away her phone and turned back to give Shen Xi a bright and radiant smile.
Even Shen Xi, this fierce Alpha, couldn’t help but be dazzled by her smile. She quickly recovered her composure, pretending to be calm as she looked away, but in reality, her heart was pounding like crazy!
Oh no, this fluttering feeling, it seems like the feeling of falling for someone…
No, no! Miss Yao is already engaged, and her fiancé is Jiang Nian’an. How can I possibly desire someone who belongs to Jiang Nian’an!
Shen Xi took a deep breath, trying to suppress that feeling of a racing heart.
Yao Anna didn’t know what she was pondering, nor did she care what she was thinking. Anyway, after today, she probably wouldn’t see this person again, and there would be no further connection between them.
She glanced idly out the window, inadvertently catching a glimpse of the rearview mirror. When she saw a black Bentley following not too far behind their car, her eyes instantly narrowed!
Holy cow, isn’t that Jiang Nian’an’s car?!
Is Jiang Nian’an following me?
Even if Yao Anna were turned to ash, she couldn’t mistake the Bentley sports car that Jiang Nian’an usually drove!
“Lawyer Shen, can you drive a little faster?!”
“What’s wrong?”
Hearing this sudden request, Shen Xi couldn’t help but look at the flustered Yao Anna, asking in confusion.
Yao Anna no longer had time to explain everything to Shen Xi. She tightly gripped the car’s handle, looking as if a beast were chasing her from behind.
“Please, please!”
Since she put it this way, Shen Xi couldn’t question her any further. She stepped on the gas, and the black Hummer shot out like an arrow released from a bowstring!
Jiang Nian’an narrowed her eyes, watching the black Hummer suddenly accelerate, and she also stepped on the gas to chase after it!
She was almost certain now that the reason the black Hummer suddenly sped up was because either Yao Anna or Shen Xi had discovered she was following them, and they were accelerating to try and shake her off!
The Hummer driven by Shen Xi was ultimately more powerful than the Bentley. No matter how hard Jiang Nian’an chased, Shen Xi eventually managed to leave her far behind.
When the car finally stopped smoothly at the entrance of the hotel where the Omega was currently staying, Yao Anna practically rushed out of the door. Shen Xi was startled and quickly rolled down the window, shouting towards the Omega’s almost panicked retreating figure, “Miss Yao! You haven’t given me the equity contract yet!”
Yao Anna immediately slammed to a halt. She glanced down at the contract in her hand, quickly turned around, ran back, and slipped the contract through the gap in the car window.
“I’m sorry, I was running too fast and accidentally forgot about this…”
“Goodbye, Lawyer Shen!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Yao Anna hurried towards the hotel, quickly disappearing from Shen Xi’s line of sight. Shen Xi frowned, placed the contract on the passenger seat, looked strangely in the direction Yao Anna had vanished, and drove away.
When Jiang Nian’an arrived, she only saw the black Hummer driving away. She parked her car on the side of the road, looked up at the luxurious hotel, her eyes dark.
They were driving well, and Shen Xi had every opportunity to completely shake her off, so why did they stop here?
The reason was already clear: Yao Anna must be temporarily staying in this hotel after leaving the Yao family home.
Her fair, slender fingers tapped lightly on the steering wheel. Jiang Nian’an stared intently at the five-star luxury hotel, wearing a thoughtful expression.
Since she had confirmed where Yao Anna was staying, it would be easy to find out which room she was in next.
Thinking this, Jiang Nian’an curled her lips, and a look of determination flashed in her eyes.
Pei Corporation
By the time Shen Xi returned to the corporation, Pei Congling had finished her morning meeting and was waiting for her in the CEO’s office for a debrief.
A rhythmic knock came from the door. Hearing the distinctive beat, Pei Congling knew without looking that the person was Shen Xi.
“You’re back? Come and try the top-grade Biluochun tea I brewed!”
Shen Xi sat down on the sofa opposite the Alpha. Pei Congling picked up the teapot and poured two steaming cups of tea, pushing one towards the opposite side. Only then did she focus her gaze on Shen Xi, leaning back with a gentle and polite smile.
“Did everything go smoothly?”
Shen Xi was a woman of few words, avoiding speaking whenever possible. She nodded, opened her briefcase, and took out a document, placing it on the coffee table.
Pei Congling glanced down, seeing the title written in black and white: “Equity Transfer Agreement”. She couldn’t help but curl her lips, looking at Shen Xi with satisfaction, “Very good, well done.”
The Alpha proved the outcome of the matter with her actions. Facing Pei Congling’s praise, Shen Xi pursed her lips. She didn’t take credit, stating honestly, “It’s all Yao Anna’s effort. She handled it alone. I only helped her check if there were any issues with the contract.”
“Oh? Is that so? Is she that capable?”
Pei Congling raised an eyebrow, seemingly very surprised. She hadn’t personally witnessed how Yao Anna managed to leave Yao Guangming speechless, so her impression of Yao Anna was still based on her former timidity.
“Oh, right, tell me, since you followed her to the Yao family home this time, what was the old fox Yao Guangming’s attitude towards her? Does Yao Anna still care about his opinion as much as before?”
Shen Xi shook her head, her eyes filled with extreme disbelief and confusion.
“Really? Yao Anna was that assertive?”
Shen Xi recounted everything she saw and heard at the Yao family home, practically in minute detail. Pei Congling burst into laughter after hearing it all, leaning languidly back into the sofa, smiling at Shen Xi, who was sipping tea opposite her. She was a little puzzled how Shen Xi managed to maintain such a poker face while relating the story of how Yao Anna managed to leave the old man Yao Guangming speechless.
The Omega’s performance completely exceeded Pei Congling’s expectations.
Interesting, truly too interesting!
Shen Xi picked up her teacup and took a sip of tea, her gaze completely calm. She could tell that Pei Congling was very satisfied with Yao Anna’s performance!
“Now you can cooperate with her without worry, right?”
“That’s not necessarily true.”
Pei Congling lay on the sofa, her long legs propped up on the armrest, her head resting on a soft cushion, her posture casual and relaxed.
Who would have thought that the gentle and refined CEO Pei outside would be so unconcerned about her image in front of her good friend? Shen Xi’s eyes showed a hint of disdain, and her calm voice finally carried some fluctuation, “Why?”
Shen Xi didn’t understand what she was thinking. She was the one who asked her to monitor and protect Yao Anna, and before she went, she said that as long as Yao Anna could successfully pass this test, she could cooperate with her with confidence. Thus, this trip to the Yao family was crucial.
But after it was done, Pei Congling changed her mind again.
What’s wrong with this person? Why does she change her mind every day?
Shen Xi frowned. She suddenly began to feel a little sorry for Yao Anna. How did she end up with such an unreliable person for a partner, who was constantly doubting Yao Anna’s sincerity in the cooperation?
Such a partnership is better off being abandoned!
Pei Congling slowly closed her eyes. Yao Anna’s voice and smile kept appearing in her mind, so vivid and lovely. A curve unconsciously appeared on her lips.
“She has indeed passed my test, and with a perfect score! But that doesn’t mean I can confidently cooperate with her. Have you considered why Yao Anna’s personality has changed so dramatically all of a sudden?”
