Chapter 597

597 The Days of Being the Villain’s Lackey Is Over!

Chu Hua held the milk tea in her hand, her face full of colorful spots.

“Director, I’ll go back and continue rehearsing,” Shi Xi said to the director.

“Go ahead,” the director said.

After Shi Xi left, Chu Hua remained by Xie Yunzhou’s side and said something to him.

!!

“Shall we have dinner together tonight?” Chu Hua invited.

“I have something to do tonight.” Xie Yunzhou looked at the time. “I’ll get going.”

Chu Hua’s eyes were filled with reluctance. She thought of something and said, “Then, then give me a ride. I’m just about to go back.”

“It’s not on the way,” Xie Yunzhou said.

The director saw everything clearly from the side.

One side had feelings, while the other side had no intentions.

Tsk.

Xie Yunzhou walked past Chu Hua and went straight to Shi Xi. He lowered his head and said, “Xi Xi, let’s have a chat.”

Shi Xi didn’t even raise her head. “We’re not even close. What’s there to talk about?”

Xie Yunzhou sighed in his heart, his tone remorseful. “It was my fault before.”

“Which part of it would you be wrong about?” There was a smile in Shi Xi’s eyes. She could sense that someone was already looking in her direction. She picked up her script and stood up. “I’m going to go film. Please help yourself, President Xie.”

When she walked past the director, the director pulled her back and whispered, “Treat the investors with a better attitude.”

“Got it,” Shi Xi replied.

She knew.

But she couldn’t do it.

The days of being the villain’s lackey were over!

Director: “It’s fine to lie and cheat some money!”

Shi Xi pretended not to hear him and walked to the center of the venue to get ready for the shoot.

After the scene was shot, Shi Xi realized that Xie Yunzhou had already left.

It was really baffling.

What was he doing here?

After a second, Shi Xi stopped thinking about it.

What did it have to do with her?

If not for the lack of money, she would have rejected Xie Yunzhou’s investment.

At the thought of how poor she was, Shi Xi could only swallow her anger.

She was so angry!

There were so many rich people in the world. Why couldn’t she be one of them?

The day’s filming ended. It was only at night when Shi Xi realized that everyone was eating apples that she remembered it was Christmas Eve.

Zhu Lin even washed a big, red apple for Shi Xi. “Xi Xi, Happy Christmas Eve. Remember to have an Apple at midnight. It’ll bless you with safety!”

“You didn’t learn anything else, but you’ve learned to be superstitious.” Shi Xi took the apple and took a bite. “Oh, it’s so sweet.”

Zhu Lin’s eyes widened. “This is for midnight.”

Shi Xi bit into the apple. “I can’t wait any longer. I haven’t had dinner yet.”

During this period of filming, the director always said that she was too fat on camera and directly canceled her dinner.

She was starving!

Zhu Lin’s heart ached when she saw that Shi Xi looked like a reincarnated hungry ghost. “Eat slowly, no one’s snatching it from you.”

Shi Xi didn’t reply. ‘If you’ve been hungry for half a day, you’ll eat like this too.’

Zhu Lin packed her things and brought Shi Xi back to the nanny van.

But halfway there, she was stopped by Xie Yunzhou’s assistant.

“Our boss has invited Miss Shi over for a while.”

“Xi Xi is going back to rest,” Zhu Lin said with a frown.

The assistant turned to Shi Xi. “Miss Shi?”

Shi Xi had just finished her apple when she said to Zhu Lin, “I’ll go take a look.”

There were too many people in the crew, and she didn’t want to cause any trouble.

And Xie Yunzhou was one of the investors.

F*ck, money was really a good thing.

Shi Xi was cursing in her heart.

The driver started the car as soon as they got into Xie Yunzhou’s car.

Shi Xi leaned against the back of the car seat and asked indifferently, “What’s the matter, President Xie?”

“Let’s go to Qingshui Restaurant to eat first,” Xie Yunzhou said.

Shi Xi, who hadn’t had dinner, was speechless.

The temptation was too great.

Her fragile willpower was about to collapse.
