Chapter 25: 025 Looking for Trouble

Jiang Ling had her nails done, sharp as talons.

With a willful flick of the hat, she scratched Fu Han’s scalp, even plucking out a few strands of hair.

Fu Han gasped for air, clutching her head and wondering if she would go bald.

But everyone else was staring at her face in shock, unconsciously comparing her to the actress Jiang Ling.

Fu Han had a slightly wheatish complexion, a symbol of health and youthful zest, with exquisite features, and outstanding beauty.

Just a touch of red lipstick made her dazzling to the point that it was hard to look away…

Jiang Ling snapped out of it, clenching her fists and staring intently at the other’s face.

She knew she rarely felt such aggression towards someone unless they posed a significant threat to her.

She dared to dress scantily, and the woman in front of her could do the same, or even surpass her in gaining attention more quickly.

A surge of indignation rose to her heart, and she blurted out, “No good, I don’t want any of the pictures taken today! I’ll make it clear to your company, if you come over again, I will refuse to shoot.”

“Wait, Lingling…” The agent was scared witless, wondering why such words were being said in public.

Fu Han, who had become the center of everyone’s attention, simply arched an eyebrow and nonchalantly tied her hair up with a piece of string.

“Oh, really? I’ll tell the Boss.”

Her voice was lazy and indifferent, as if talking about the weather, casually infuriating Jiang Ling without showing any sign of response.

Having said her piece, she turned to walk away, only to have her hand grabbed by someone.

A man’s oh-so-familiar voice said, “You dropped something.”

Turning to look, Fu Han saw He Xing place the sunglasses in her hand, to which she naturally said thanks.

Just as she was about to leave, He Xing was following along with her.

Jiang Ling and her agent became frantic, hastily trying to explain, “Sorry, Mr. He, I was a bit foolish and did something strange.”

“That’s not the way to the restaurant.”

Many people at the shoot pretended to work, but their thoughts were all following the main subject of the commotion.

Fu Han realized what was key and halted suddenly, leisurely reminding He Xing, “Wake up, you haven’t sorted out your romantic entanglement yet.”

“Romantic entanglement?” He Xing looked puzzled as if hearing strange news, a hint of confusion crossing his handsome features.

That kind of expression never appeared on the man who was known to the outside world as invincible in the Mall and omniscient.

Jiang Ling and her agent were so anxious they couldn’t utter a single word.

“Oh, he’s a friend introduced by Ji Liangchuan, said to be suitable for the leading lady in a movie the Group is planning to invest in and shoot,” He Xing said, unusually talkative.

Fu Han responded with an “oh,” unbothered, just checking the time and considering when she could leave.

This rare opportunity to be out on an assignment and possibly leave work early was spoiled by He Xing’s troublesome affair…

“The previous agreement is off,” He Xing dropped this statement and pulled Fu Han into his car.

“Wait, Boss He, it’s all a misunderstanding!” The agent panicked, too late to catch up with the car.

His chubby face was filled with regret as he turned to look at Jiang Ling, who still stood frozen, disbelieving what had just happened, and couldn’t help lashing out in anger, slapping her across the face.

“You like to act like a spoiled Lady, so why bring that attitude outside? If the news of you losing resources gets out, you’ll definitely get crushed by your peers!”

“Brother He, save me, it wasn’t on purpose, I just genuinely found someone disagreeable…”

What happened afterwards was none of Fu Han’s concern.

She tried to free her hand from the hold, but instead was gripped even more tightly.

“Boss He, are you sure you want to go with me?” Fu Han glanced at the time, her lips curling into a smile, “I’m going to enjoy some adult nightlife.”

“I’m actually curious to see what your so-called nightlife is like,” He Xing said, his gaze darkening and his voice deepening.

He exuded a forbidding frostiness that made even the driver shiver.

Yet Fu Han was still nonchalant, “Sure, as long as you don’t ruin it.”

The man smiled cryptically, only deepening the unease.

The designated driver shed tears of frustration, mourning a minute’s silence for the bar owners who might suffer later.

Meanwhile, at Time Restaurant.

The reserved private room was abruptly flung open.

Xia Ning looked around as if searching for someone. The server spoke softly, nervously mentioning, “This room was reserved by the actress Jiang Ling, but she hasn’t arrived yet.”

“I’ve booked the room next door; let me know if there’s any noise,” Xia Ning said, her eyes cold as she placed a monitoring device in a fake flower atop the wall and turned to leave.

Then, she heard the server on the phone, “Huh? The room is canceled, the actress isn’t coming… so, Lady, what about the person who was supposed to dine with her?”

Without needing an answer and just by the server’s flustered look, it was all too clear.

Xia Ning clenched her teeth, “Damn it.”

Her stakeout plan had just gone down the drain!

Just then, an acquaintance called, excitedly reporting where He Xing was spotted at the bar.

Usually, Xia Ning would rush over eagerly to intercept, but she lost interest immediately, “I’m not going! He won’t go anywhere!”

“Oh, okay, I thought you’d be happy to know.”

Once the call ended, the acquaintance, watching the distant He Xing at the bar, receiving one invitation after another with an aloof expression, murmured to himself.

“That’s odd, Xia Ning would normally jump at such a chance.”

In the bar, men and women in the dance floor spent their energy wantonly.

The clinking of glasses at the bar and in the private rooms, and now, due to He Xing’s presence, many were drawn like moths to a flame, rushing towards him.

Despite the intimidating chill emanating from He Xing, these people couldn’t resist his allure and kept approaching.

Not far off, Fu Han, after much struggle, finally broke free and breathed a sigh of relief.

Nan Qing, who had been waiting outside to pick her up, was stunned, “You’re really amazing.”

“Listening to your call, I thought you were just bringing someone to help carry heavy stuff, but I never imagined you actually brought He Xing,” Nan Qing said.

“To be accurate, he insisted on coming,” Fu Han shrugged, skipping the details of how she had been surrounded at the shoot.

Nan Qing paused before giving a thumbs up and sincerely said to Fu Han, “Impressive, from now on, I’ve got to call you ‘Sister Han.’

“Too old-fashioned, pick another,” said Fu Han, tugging her companion along, their next destination being the Casino beneath the bar.
