âHowever, to me, itâs not as easy as that. Iâve signed an agreement. If I violate it, Iâll get fired from the production crew. That means this isnât actually such a small thing. This favor of yours⦠I wonât be helping you with it,â Shi Xiaoya said coldly.
âBut youâre Han Zhuolingâs wife! The Han Corporation has invested in that movie. Moreover, youâre not simply a staff member,â Luo Qingxian countered.
Shi Xiaoya raised her eyebrows. She did not expect Luo Qingxian to be so knowledgeable about the situation.
âEven if you violate the rules of the agreement, they wonât be able to fire you,â Luo Qingxian said hurriedly. âSo, this is still considered a small matter to you. You donât have much to worry about at all, so why wonât you help me?â
Shi Xiaoya was truly angered into a smile. âEven if they wonât really fire me, it will still depend on how much they respect Zhuoling. But I clearly know the rules. If I donât abide by them, itâs a deliberate violation. It would cause Zhuoling, the Hans, and myself to get discredited.
âIt would also bring shame upon my family who raised me. What would others say about Zhuoling, the Hans, my family, and me?â Shi Xiaoya said coldly. âI am clearly able to abide by the rules, yet I deliberately want to break them? Why would I?
âI donât actually want to have to use this sort of prerogative, nor do I want to do this sort of matter that would get me called despicable and loathsome. Iâm in compliance and am unwilling to violate the rules, so why must I break them because of you? To be honest, who are you to me? You want me to receive malicious comments from others and let the many people of the families behind me suffer the same fate just to help you?â
Shi Xiaoya did not care how angry Luo Qingxian would become or how dramatic she would be when feeling that she was being looked down upon.
Shi Xiaoya was very clear on Luo Qingxianâs view on the situation.
She just could not be bothered to expose the latter.
No matter how she considered it, Luo Qingxian was someone who did not normally contact her anyway.
Regardless of how Luo Qingxian thought about this, Shi Xiaoya was unable to control Luo Qingxianâs mind.
However, this did not mean she was completely ignorant about Luo Qingxianâs thoughts.
It seemed to Shi Xiaoya that Luo Qingxian was actually suffering from an inferiority complex.

So, regardless of what the other party expressed, Luo Qingxian would ultimately always feel like they were looking down on her.
âAdditionally, you asked why I wonât help you?â Shi Xiaoya appeared to recall something funny.
Luo Qingxian was a distance away from her phone, but she still heard Shi Xiaoyaâs laughter.
âThen I too want to ask you⦠why should I want to help you?â Shi Xiaoya asked in return.
Unexpectedly, Luo Qingxian was not stumped by the question. âOf course, itâs because you can. Moreover, you wonât suffer any losses! Since itâs such a simple thing to you, why are you unwilling to help me?â
Shi Xiaoya felt that it was truly very pointless to keep going around in circles like this with Luo Qingxian.
Thus, she said, âThen think whatever you want. Clearly, our values are incompatible. Or perhaps itâs because youâre too selfish. As long as it is something beneficial to you, you feel as if it should be given to you.â
Upon seeing that Shi Xiaoya wanted to refuse doing her the favor and did not have the slightest bit of hesitation, Luo Qingxian said immediately, âShi Xiaoya, I was your classmate!â
âSo what if you were my classmate? I have many old classmates. There were so many students in our class, but none of them are like you, asking for unreasonable request from me as though you have the right to do so. You even feel that Iâm in the wrong if I donât help you.
âDo you think youâre so charming that you can get everyone to revolve around you?â Shi Xiaoya said coldly. âSo helping you is something I ought to do, and if I donât do it, Iâm in the wrong. I really want to ask you⦠just what makes you think this is the case?â
