73 Is It Adoration?
When Xi Wan walked out of the hotel, a voice rang in her head: [Mission passed! Mission passed!]
Xi Wan could finally relax and she heaved a huge sigh of relief. âI was scared to death. I thought that I would not pass the mission.â
The system replied: [Youâve agreed to invest so you will naturally pass the mission. However, the director and producer were obviously cunning and they didnât put things out in the open. Donât you hate people like this the most? Why did you agree to invest in them? Was it just for Jiang Ranâs sake? But you can just invest in any television series and put her in to play a role, right? Besides, this form of behavior is typically known as using connections to get a role and she will definitely get scolded for that.]
âItâs just a variety show. I invested in it so why canât I cast my people in it then? â Xi Wan said, âMy company is just starting up and itâs a good thing to be able to receive such resources. Besides, if I donât agree, I wonât be able to pass the mission.â
The system thought about it and felt that Xi Wanâs words made sense.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI just hope that nothing else will happen before we start filming.â Xi Wan sighed.
The system thought the same. It did not want to deal with those unexpected events either. [So far, there are only a few people who are a threat to you. The male protagonist, the second male protagonist, and the female protagonist.]
Xi Wanâs head began to hurt at the mention of them and she felt like her head was about to explode.
She only had time to check her cell phone when she returned to the villa. If she did not look at it, she would not have known that Xiao Zhe had sent her more than eighty messages during the period of time when she had gone out until the time she returned.
Xi Wan was speechless. âIs there something wrong with this person?â
[I canât say for sure but it seems like it.] The system replied as if it was watching a show.
Xi Wan could not take it anymore. She passed the phone to Chen Tong and said, âRead out the content of these eighty text messages to me.â
Chen Tong took the cell phone. She thought that the content of the chat was nothing serious at first, but the more she read, the more she felt that something was wrong. At first, it was a simple greeting but it was then followed by various private inquiries, such as, âMiss Xi, what do you like to eat?â
âMiss Xi, do you like necklaces? I have a friend who saw a very beautiful necklace overseas. I think itâs very suitable for you. Take a look at it and see if you like it. â
There was a picture below.
âItâs not just a necklace but thereâs also a ring. I think they all suit you. What do you think?â
âMiss Xi, if you donât reply to me, does that mean that you like them? If thatâs the case, Iâll buy them and mail them to Su Group.â
âMiss Xi, your nickname is very special too. Does it have any meaning to it? â
There were many more after that but Chen Tong did not dare to continue reading any further. Coincidentally, Xi Wan was also getting tired of listening to him so she took her cell phone and replied, âNo need, I donât like those things.â
Xiao Zhe quickly replied, âBut Iâve already bought them.â
Xi Wan asked him for his address as she planned to mail them back to him when the items arrived. However, Xiao Zhe insisted, âAre you going to give me a gift in return?â What are you going to give me?â
Xi Wan could not take it anymore. After cursing him and calling him a âlunaticâ, she turned off her cell phone.
She continued to rest with her eyes closed. Chen Tong stood at the side, feeling conflicted.
Wasnât this the top actor, Xiao Zhe? Why did he want to send messages to her madam and even give her gifts like necklaces and rings? Could it be that he had ill intentions towards Madam?
Chen Tong looked at Xi Wan and suddenly felt that her thoughts were a little ridiculous.
Madam was already married to Mr. Su so Xiao Zhe wouldnât be asking to be snubbed, right? He probably only wanted to give her a present to express his adoration because he admired Madam, right?
Probably?
Xiao Zhe sent a few more messages but he did not get a reply. So, he simply called. âMiss Xi, why didnât you reply to my message?â
Xi Wan paused for a moment before she replied indifferently, âIâm blind. I didnât see it.â
Xiao Zhe replied, âYouâre good at joking.â
âThank you for your compliment,â Xi Wan replied.
Xiao Zhe was actually speechless.
âWhatâs the matter?â Xi Wan asked after a while.
âWell, itâs nothing much. I just wanted to ask you what you think of the necklace and ring? Although you said you didnât like it, Iâm sure you didnât look at those pictures carefully. Why donât you take a closer look at them? Perhaps youâll like them?â
Xi Wan yawned and said, âThereâs no need, I really donât like those things. Iâd advise you to save your energy in the future and not buy these things for me. I wonât return to your company. Weâre competitors now.â
