Chapter 74: Chapter 74 - 74 Mental Damage

74 Mental Damage

Xiao Zhe quickly said, “Xi Wan, let’s discuss a collaboration then!”

However, Xi Wan suddenly changed her mind. “I don’t want to talk about it.”

With that said, Xi Wan hung up the phone and blocked Xiao Zhe’s number.

The system was shocked” [You’re going to block him just like that? What about the ring?]

“I’ll accept it as compensation for the mental damage then,” Xi Wan said as a matter of fact.

System: [What?!]

After Xi Wan hung up the phone, Chen Tong tried to say, “Madam, Mrs. Huang just sent someone over to give you a gift.”

Xi Wan did not have any impression of a ‘Mrs. Huang’, so she asked, “Who’s Mrs. Huang?”

Chen Tong hesitated, not knowing how to explain. This was because she had worked as a chef in the Huang family before so she knew what they were like. They looked approachable on the outside, but in fact, they disliked everything and everyone.

When Chen Tong was still working for the Huang family, a company’s boss had come to visit with a very expensive gift. He was very sincere. Mrs. Huang and Mr. Huang were also very warm to the boss and even told Chen Tong to keep the gift.

However, after the boss left, the two of them changed their expressions and even asked Chen Tong to throw the gift into the trash can.

Chen Tong could still remembered Mrs. Huang’s disdainful expression even now and what she had said at that time. “I don’t know where he bought this cheap stuff from. How can it be worthy of being in our house?”

Chen Tong was dumbfounded at the time. She stood in front of the trash can with the gift and did not move. In fact, that gift was already considered to be very expensive for most rich and powerful families. It was just that the Huang family’s status was higher than the other rich and powerful families so that was why they looked down on these things.

Moreover, ever since the old master’s generation started from scratch, the Huang family had always regarded itself as an old-fashioned wealthy family. They even once thought that they should be a more noble existence compared to that of the Su family. However, because of Su Xun’s outstanding ability, the Huang family could only be ranked after the Su family.

But the Huang family had always looked down on the Su family, so why did they specially send a gift to Madam this time? Could it be that they wanted to show off their strength?

Chen Tong thought for a long time and finally said, “Madam, Mrs. Huang has always prided herself on her noble status and looked down on the Su family. I don’t know what’s her purpose in sending you a gift this time.”

“Look down on the Su family?” Xi Wan muttered to herself, “Since she doesn’t like the Su family, the gift she sent must be very expensive then, right? She wants to show off her sense of existence. Bring it here, let me take a look at it.”

Chen Tong brought the gift over. After Xi Wan opened the box, she found a clear crystal jade bangle inside.

“It’s just a bracelet?” Xi Wan took the bangle out and played with it as if it was a toy. “I was wondering what good gift Mrs. Huang would give me since she has such high vision. It’s just an ordinary bracelet.”

Xi Wan lost interest after looking at it for a while. She threw the bracelet back into the box, closed it again, and handed it back to Chen Tong. “You can keep it if you like it. If you don’t like it, you can give it to someone else or throw it away. Anyway, you can do whatever you want with it. ”

Chen Tong did not expect Xi Wan to say that. After she took the box, she felt that she had lost her sense of reality.

Xi Wan went upstairs to inform Jiang Ran about the variety show and said, “This is the first job I’ve gotten for you and I’m the investor for the variety show. The director doesn’t dare to make me angry, so he naturally will not dare to make you angry. So, you just need to perform well and I believe that your popularity will gradually return.”

Jiang Ran was very excited. “Really? Thank you, Xi Wan!”

“Don’t thank me yet. You have to control your temper first.” Xi Wan said, “If you’re still as impatient as before, I won’t help you to clean up your mess if you cause any trouble on set. I will still terminate the contract with you even if I have to pay the liquidated damages.”

“I understand.” After her contract was terminated the last time, Jiang Ran had learned to control her temper. She said, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you down this time.”

“That’d be the best. I’ll give you the director’s contact information later so you can get to know him first. I’ll introduce you to everyone at the opening ceremony in a few days.”

“Thank you.” Jiang ran thanked her from the bottom of her heart.

Xi Wan did not respond and hung up the phone. She lay on the bed in a daze and the system was also in a daze with her.
