60 Original Second Male Protagonist
Xi Wan stared at Cheng Shi’s clothes for a long time and suddenly said, “Even if the gown I’m wearing is out of season, it’s still more than twice as expensive as yours according to the current market price.”
Cheng Shi’s face turned pale. “Mrs. Su, you really know how to make a joke. How can a gown that’s out of season be compared to the fashionable dress on me?”
Xi Wan took out her cell phone and searched for the prices of the two gowns on a shopping app. She then showed the comparison information to Cheng Shi. “Take a look at it yourself. It’s more than just double but it’s even more than twice as expensive. Cheng Shi, the gown you’re wearing is the one that’s really worthless.”
Cheng Shi could no longer keep a straight expression. “Xi Wan, don’t be arrogant! You’re already married to Su Xun and you are already someone else’s wife. Why do you still have to go around attracting other men outside? I really don’t know what kind of charm you have so much so that Ling Feng can’t let you go!”
The people around them started to whisper again as if they had sensed gossip.
Xi Wan asked, “What has it got to do with me if Ling Feng can’t let go of me? You also know that I’m already married Su Xun so I naturally will not have any relationship with other men. Why are you blaming me when Ling Feng is the one pestering me?”
Xi Wan rendered Cheng Shi speechless. In addition, the gown she was wearing was indeed not as good as Xi Wan’s gown which was out of season. This really embarrassed her.
“Xi Wan, just wait. I’m not done with you!” Cheng Shi was so angry that she turned around and left the venue.
As soon as she left, Li Yue came back after changing into her regular clothes.
She did not want to wear regular clothes but she only brought this set of regular clothes out with her. She would have to be naked if she did not wear it.
She lowered her head and felt that the people around her were judging her, as if they were pointing at her clothes. Li Yue wished that she could just bury herself in the ground. If she had known that it would be so embarrassing, she would not have come here no matter what!
She was trembling as she walked in front of Xi Wan and her hands were still shaking.
“Mrs. Li, do you have Parkinson’s disease?” Xi Wan asked considerately when she saw this.
Li Yue did not even dare to breathe too loudly. She stammered, “No, I don’t.”
Xi Wan continued to say considerately, “You should go to the hospital for treatment if you have Parkinson’s disease. Otherwise, you’re going to spill red wine on yourself again when you drink red wine later.”
Li Yue wiped the cold sweat off her face and was unable to say a word.
The people around did not dare to speak to Xi Wan. Xi Wan felt that it was very boring, so she got up and prepared to find Su Xun.
However, before she could reach Su Xun, she heard someone calling her. “Xi Wan.”
Xi Wan stopped in her tracks and turned around. She saw a tall and handsome man with long legs smiling at her.
The system was still searching for information on the person in front of it when Xi Wan spoke first, “Hello, may I know who you are?”
The handsome man in front of her froze, then continued maintaining his smile and asked, “Don’t you recognize me?”
“Should I recognize you?” Xi Wan asked honestly.
The system finally found information about this person and quickly sorted out the plot for Xi Wan. [This person is Xiao Zhe and he is the second male protagonist in the original text! He likes Zhao Fei, Zhao Fei likes Ling Feng, and Ling Feng likes you. That’s why he also hates you! At the same time, he’s the current top actor and the boss of the entertainment company you used to work at!]
Xi Wan was really speechless now. “Zhao Fei likes Ling Feng, so shouldn’t he hate Ling Feng instead? What did I do wrong that he would hate me? Is it because I’m a cannon fodder female supporting role that I have to put up with this kind of situation?”
The system said: [I can’t help it. Your settings are like this. The plot is a little off-track now. I don’t know why he’s looking for you this time, but I’m sure it’s not a good thing. Just deal with it casually. The more you say, the more mistakes you make. He already hates you, so don’t make him hate you even more.]
However, the system had forgotten that Xi Wan had never been an obedient host.
She said to Xiao Zhe, “I remember now. My former boss, right?”
Only then did the smile on Xiao Zhe’s face soften. “I knew it. How could you have forgotten about me? After all, you’ve always wanted to work with me, and it hasn’t been long since your contract was terminated. How could you not remember me?”
Xi Wan could tell that Xiao Zhe had come to provoke her this time.
She said, “I wouldn’t dare to. You’re the current top actor and I’m just an unknown small-time actress in the entertainment industry. Besides, you don’t have to worry because I’ve retired from the entertainment industry now, so it’s even more impossible for me to work with you.”
Xiao Zhe was speechless after hearing Xi Wan’s words and brought up the issue for the liquidated damages for breach of contract. “Xi Wan, regarding the company’s liquidated damages…”
