Chapter 36: I’m a Cold-Blooded Animal

  Chapter 36: I'm a Cold-Blooded Animal

  “Is it really that serious?” Ye Xian was stunned.

  “What do you think?” Shangguan Yunli raised an eyebrow. “Tingshen has always been decisive and ruthless in business—completely different from someone like Jiang Wanze, who’s all soft. This time Yan Dong abused his power to bcklist an artist, which stepped right on Tingshen’s ndmine. If he’s not severely punished, others will follow suit. This is called killing the chicken to warn the monkey. So you’d better stop provoking him, or once he deals with you, you’ll see how scary he really is.”

  Ye Xian: “…” Can’t you wish me well for once?

  Not long after, Yan Dong left.

  When he came, he walked fast and looked spirited. When he left, he was disoriented and sluggish—his whole back radiating defeat.

  She remembered Jiang Wen once saying that Yan Dong held significant power in Star Entertainment, and his orders weren’t to be questioned. Yet the CEO had taken him down with just a few sharp words.

  It was clear…

  Ye Xian suddenly regretted the defiant words she had thrown at Bo Tingshen in her anger.

  Bo Tingshen raised his eyes, his gaze falling on Shangguan Yunli’s arm draped over Ye Xian’s shoulder.

  Shangguan Yunli gave her shoulder a little squeeze. “Why are your bones so soft? Just like a girl~”

  Ye Xian kicked him away. “You’re the girl!”

  “I was just joking. Why are you so sensitive?”

  “You staying here to keep pying?”

  The man’s cold voice came from behind. Shangguan Yunli looked at Bo Tingshen, confused. “Seriously, Tingshen? Why are you mad at me? I’m totally innocent.”

  “We’re leaving.”

  “OK!”

  “Hey~”

  As the two men passed her, Ye Xian—who’d been full of courage moments ago—shrunk back again. Her voice was soft and timid, like a little puppy who hadn’t been weaned yet: “Um, President… about the resources…”

  “I’m a cold-blooded animal.”

  The man’s low, emotionless voice brushed past her ear. Ye Xian involuntarily shivered. “…”

  Shangguan Yunli couldn’t help but ugh. Seeing Ye Xian looking small and pitiful, he rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

  Resources, huh? Maybe he could help.

  “You know, your desperation to get resources today kind of moved me.” Shangguan Yunli pulled out a business card from his inner pocket. “This is the contact info for Li Jiahua, director of Workpce Storm, a weekly drama currently airing on Apple TV. He told me they still need someone to py a ‘puppy-like’ character and haven’t found the right person. I think you’d actually fit pretty well. Tell him I sent you—but it’s not guaranteed. You’ll still need to audition. Look up the details online.”

  “Good luck to you~”

  He shoved the card into Ye Xian’s hand. Before she could react, he was already waving after Bo Tingshen’s retreating figure. “Hey, wait up!”

  Ye Xian stared bnkly at the business card in her hand. A moment ter, she let out a squawk of excitement.

  She got a resource?!

  Happiness came way too suddenly!

  Shangguan Yunli was a total angel. He completely overturned her impression of spoiled second-generation heirs in the entertainment circle.

  So much kinder than that cold-blooded CEO!

  “What were you talking about?” Bo Tingshen asked as Shangguan Yunli caught up.

  “Nothing. Why? Interested?”

  The man didn’t respond.

  Shangguan Yunli stroked his chin thoughtfully. “Funny… I never realized how cute Ye Xian is. Adaptable, brave, interesting—not at all like the annoying brat everyone said she was. I actually kinda like the kid.”

  Bo Tingshen’s thick shes lowered slightly. The sunlight cast a faint shadow over his eyes. “I’m not going to Xiaoxiang Club. I’m going back to the office.”

  “What?” Shangguan Yunli was surprised. “But you promised to come with me to Xiaoxiang Club to deal with my dad! How can you suddenly back out? That’s so not cool!”

  “Hey! Hey!”

  Watching Bo Tingshen get in the car without even turning around, Shangguan Yunli smacked a tree in frustration.

  Seriously, what did he do to deserve this?

  Bo Tingshen: My wife says I’m a cold-blooded animal. One day, I’ll make her see how hot-blooded I can be.

  Author Tail: Hot where? (blinking innocently)
