Chapter 77

77 High Pitched Voice

Xi Wan was speechless. “I’m already married, what other thoughts can I have about him? I just think he’s cute.”

[That won’t do either. If the antagonist discovers your thoughts, you won’t be able to live your life in the future!]

As it spoke, the system seemed to have thought of something and said excitedly: [The female protagonist happens to be here. Why don’t we change our strategy? You should go and look for the female protagonist now and build a good relationship with her! After you go back, you can continue to please the antagonist. As long as the antagonist likes you, you don’t have to do anything else. You can start a happy life directly!]

“You’re crazy,” Xi Wan cursed.

!!
The system was speechless.

It felt a little sad to be scolded.

Sheng Han was sitting next to Xi Wan. Xi Wan did not ask him to leave, nor did she show any disdainful expression. He just sat there.

The entire room was silent until Wu Xuan finally spoke first, “Miss Xi Wan, you look so beautiful today.”

When she said this, she changed to the voice that she usually used in front of the public. Although it gave people goosebumps, some people liked her this way.

Xi Wan raised her head and glanced at her, then at Xiao Zhe who was next to her. She knew that Wu Xuan was saying this to please Xiao Zhe.

“I don’t need you to tell me that I’m beautiful.” She said, “Can you not adjust your voice to be so high-pitched before you speak? I feel very uncomfortable listening to your voice. I really don’t understand why anyone would like your voice.”

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward and Wu Xuan’s face flushed red.

Xi Wan really has no emotional intelligence at all. How could she say such things in public?

Xiao Zhe spoke up for Wu Xuan. “Miss Xi, Wu Xuan always speak like this. Please do not mind her.”

“Didn’t you hear her voice yesterday? It’s as rough as a man’s voice.” Xi Wan pretended to be shocked. “Could it be that as her boss, you don’t you know about this too? No way, could it be that Wu Xuan lied to you too even when you’re her boss? Does she also speak like this in front of you?”

Xiao Zhe naturally knew that Wu Xuan’s original voice wasn’t like this but the company had designed her to be like this. Therefore, Wu Xuan would always speak with a high-pitched voice in front of the public. She would only speak in her original voice in front of a very small number of people.

He smiled and explained, “Her original voice is indeed not like this. Some changes happened during this period of time so that’s why her voice became like this. Miss Xi, if you don’t like hearing her voice, I can make her talk less.”

“There’s no need for that. Her mouth belongs to her so she can say whatever she wants.” Xi Wan said, “You don’t have to be so polite to me. If outsiders hear this, they’ll think that I’m bullying you and your servant.”

As soon as she said that, the atmosphere became even more awkward. The system also felt awkward for them. [How can you say that? This is the second male protagonist. It won’t do you any good to offend him in public!]

“Who offended him? I’m just telling the truth.” Xi Wan rolled her eyes. “He’s about to save the damsel in distress. Would he still care about what I’m saying? Even if I didn’t say these words today, would he not hate me because of this? Since I can’t change the outcome, I have to take advantage of this opportunity to vent all my anger.”

[You…] The system said ‘you’ for a long time, but it did not know what to say. In the end, it could only sigh and say: [My career is really full of difficulties.]

The atmosphere was still silent. However, it was broken by a burst of sobs.

Everyone looked over and saw Wu Xuan standing there with tears rolling down her face.

She was a sweet-looking girl and when she cried, people felt a desire to protect her. The hearts of the people present were moved. Even the bodyguards behind Xi Wan could not help but have the thought of protecting Wu Xuan.

The director quickly walked over to comfort her. “Don’t cry. Miss Xi is also a straightforward person. She just says whatever she has to say. Don’t take it to heart.”

“I just didn’t know that Miss Xi Wan hated me so much.” Wu Xuan cried and said, “If I’d have known that Miss Xi Wan hated me so much, I would have rejected it directly when Boss Xiao asked me to participate in this variety show.”

Xiao Zhe said, “In the beginning, I didn’t know that Miss Xi would be the biggest investor in this variety show. I was the one who did not think this through carefully. Don’t be sad.”
