Chapter 46: As Expected, Sang Xiyue Contacted the Media

The weather was even colder at night. When the two women walked out, the car was already parked at the entrance.

At this moment, Lin Xiaowan, who was carefully walking down the stairs, seemed to have sensed something, and she looked up immediately. She saw a man standing by the car and looking at her from afar. Huo Zheng had come to pick her up.

Gu Yuwu saw Lin Xiaowan's eyes light up as she smiled and quickened her pace. Seeing the high heels that Lin Xiaowan was wearing, she was worried that Lin Xiaowan would fall. She hurriedly reached out and said, “Slow down, slow down. What if you fall?”

Lin Xiaowan rushed over to Huo Zheng, and he took a few steps forward, catching her in his arms. He patted her arm and asked, “Aren't you afraid of falling?”

“I won't fall,” Lin Xiaowan said confidently.

Gu Yuwu rolled her eyes as she thought to herself, 'Who was it that almost tripped earlier after only walking two steps?'

Lin Xiaowan was really happy that Huo Zheng came and picked her up. It made her feel as though Huo Zheng missed her, and she had a sense of satisfaction from that.

Huo Zheng continued to hold Lin Xiaowan in his arms while she chatted with Gu Yuwu. His attention was fully focused on her, ignoring everyone in the surroundings. A small smile could be seen on his face as he thought about his sister-in-law's suggestion to him during the lunar new year. Indeed, Lin Xiaowan should come out more often instead of staying home all the time.

The crowd at the venue gradually thinned and returned to its usual cold and silent state.

Sang Xiyue left very late. She noticed that after she asked her assistant to release the photos, her assistant had been a little absent-minded.

When they entered the car, her assistant handed her a thermos. When she took a sip and found that the water was cold, she lost her temper. She forcefully pushed the thermos back to her assistant as she scolded, “Are you an idiot? Did you not know the water is cold? You graduated from university, right? How is it that you can even get such a small thing right? What did the university teach a piece of trash like you?”

Sang Xiyue's public image was that of an introvert. This was planned by her company and her manager to hide her quick temper. In private, if she was unhappy, she would lose her temper without care.

Sang Xiyue had three assistants, and the youngest one was the one she disliked most.

The assistant's face was pale as she apologized profusely, “I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I filled it up with hot water earlier. Perhaps, the thermos is broken. Next time, I'll make sure…”

Sang Xiyue did not give her assistant a chance to finish her words. She continued to scold, “Next time? This time, the water is cold. Next time are you going to burn me to death?”

“That's not what I mean…”

“Enough, stop explaining yourself. I'll just treat it as a charity, raising a good-for-nothing like you,” Sang Xiyue said impatiently as she looked for her phone. However, when she could not find her phone, she shouted again, “What are you doing? Can't you see that I'm looking for something? If you don't know what I'm looking for, then ask me and bring it to me!”

At this time, the assistant was cleaning up the water that spilled from the thermos when Sang Xiyue forcefully pushed it over earlier. Upon hearing Sang Xiyue's words, she timidly asked Sang Xiyue what she was looking for.

“My phone! Isn't it obvious that I'm looking for my phone?!”

The assistant did not dare to say anything and handed the phone to Sang Xiyue. Usually, when Sang Xiyue attended events, her assistant would keep her phone for her

Sang Xiyue snatched the phone away and kicked off her high heels. She found a comfortable position and continued to scold her assistant, “So annoying. What's the use of hiring you? I really don't understand why Sister Lily hired you.”

Lily was Sang Xiyue's manager. She was the one who discovered Sang Xiyue and signed Sang Xiyue. She was almost 50 years old. When Sang Xiyue faced her, Sang Xiyue would usually restrain her temper and treat her respectfully.

The timid assistant remained silent, feeling aggrieved. She watched as Sang Xiyue played with her phone as though she was chatting with someone. She could not help but feel a little afraid when she thought about what Sang Xiyue had ordered her to do earlier with the photos.

When the car pulled to a stop at a traffic light, the assistant mustered up her courage and said, “Sister Xiyue, I want to resign.”

Sang Xiyue would usually find fault with the assistant. However, when she heard these words, there was no reaction at all. She did not even look at her assistant as she said nonchalantly, “It's up to you if you want to resign. I don't lack assistants like you.”

The assistant quietly brought her phone out and took a look. When Sang Xiyue was about to get off the car, she said, “Then, I won't be coming to work tomorrow.”

Sang Xiyue sized her assistant up as she said mockingly, “It's up to you. However, you signed a contract back then, right? If you leave so abruptly, it'll be considered a breach of contract. Your salary will be gone.”

The assistant lowered her head and replied, “Yes.”

Sang Xiyue could not be bothered to talk to her assistant anymore and quickly left.

When Lin Xiaowan sent Gu Yuwu home, she waited until Gu Yuwu walked into the house before she left.

Huo Zheng adjusted the white shawl for her as he asked, “Did you have fun tonight?”

Lin Xiaowan nodded and told him about the various celebrities she had seen that night, and Huo Zheng would occasionally respond with words like 'Hmm', 'Is that so?', and 'And then?'. This greatly encouraged her to continue sharing her experience with him.

After changing her clothes, Gu Yuwu was scrolling on her phone when she saw a headline. As expected, Sang Xiyue had used Lin Xiaowan to appear in the news.

[The Beautiful Ambassador of Athena Versus the New Star! Who Wore It Better? The Answer Is Obvious!]

The article was not very long, and Gu Yuwu quickly skimmed through it. The article talked about the popularity of Athena and its Swan Collection, and the brand's status in the fashion industry. Then, it began to compare Sang Xiyue and Lin Xiaowan. The article also went into how Lin Xiaowan's legs were too short, her waist was too wide, and her features were mediocre before praising Sang Xiyue to the sky. The photos that accompanied the article also were cleverly cropped, removing Gu Yuwu.

After a quick check, Gu Yuwu found a few more similar articles, and the photos were similarly cropped.

Gu Yuwu sneered as she thought to herself, 'The media think that they're smart and didn't dare to involve me in this matter. However, do they think that it'll be fine just because they didn't involve me?'

Gu Yuwu did not have Huo Zheng's number so she called Lin Xiaowan and asked to speak to Huo Zheng.

At the same time, Lin Xiaowan, who had just arrived home, was puzzled by the call. However, she still handed the phone over to Huo Zheng and said, “Gu Yuwu wants to speak to you.”

Huo Zheng took the phone from her and said, “Put on your slippers and change your clothes. I've heated a glass of milk for you. Drink it after you change.” “Alright..”
