“It really feels different from before.”

“What do you think happened to make such a big difference?”

“Chen Che is playing hard to get?”

“Chen Che is obviously acting.”

Even Zhou Li turned to ask Zhao Chao a few questions. Zhao Chao shook his head and ate as he glanced at Chen Che and Lin Xi before saying something to Zhou Li.

Chen Che widened his eyes and looked at the atmosphere. Lin Xi only smiled from beginning to end.

“They…” Chen Che said to Lin Xi in a dilemma, “They’re actually estimating us with such intent?”

Lin Xi glared and pushed her small bowl over. “You eat it. I don’t like seafood.”

“I don’t like it either.” Chen Che nodded and began to eat the prawn meat.

Lin Xi laughed. “If you don’t like it, why are you eating so quickly?”

Thinking of the common sense of not eating when injured, Lin Xi frowned. “You can’t eat seafood with a wound, right?”

Chen Che nodded. “I accidentally saw it on the Internet. Eating prawns is also good for your body’s recovery.”

Lin Xi didn’t say anything else. She just casually fiddled with the plastic gloves.

Chen Che did not mind. As he chatted with the people around him and ate, he thought to himself, why aren’t the prawns decreasing in the bowl?

“President Zhang.”

“Oh? You’re here.”

It hadn’t been long since the barter market arrived in Shanghai.

Although it was not 12 o’clock yet, this time was stable enough for the elite class.

That was because most things had a division of labor between the heads of departments. They could be busy or idle.

However, when something particularly important happened, not only at midnight, but even in the wee hours of the morning, it was necessary to step forward.

Once upon a time, she was Liang Mi’s manager. She helped her deal with many crises, including her husband’s script. She was the one who led the team to resolve it.

Now, everything had passed smoothly.

However, when she saw Liu Fangyu running over so eagerly and saying that he had something important to report, even if she was not in the capital at the moment and was on a business trip in Shanghai,

In reality, before Liu Fangyu arrived, she already knew what had happened.

Because at that time, Chu Zhengfei called her immediately.

At that time, she was very angry because a CEO had to deal with such a problem without any heads up.

This was very disrespectful.

What was even more infuriating was that this loss of dignity was not because she was not capable, but because an artiste outside actually made the decision on her own?

‘So what’s the agent doing?’

“Have a seat.”

The CEO is calm enough.

She had already experienced many storms and was calm.

Although he always being addressed as Brother Liu, his actual name was Liu Fangyu.

Of course, Zhang Ning would call his name.

After waiting for a few hours, Zhang Ning had already calmed down.

She would deal with it as she saw fit.

She believed that Liu Fangyu did not do it on purpose.

After all, he was an experienced manager. Although his style was a little criticized, from the company’s point of view, they needed such a manager.

In the hotel suite in Shanghai, Zhang Ning’s assistant was by her side.

Liu Fangyu sat on the other side. Speaking of Lin Xi and Liang Mi’s relationship, he was naturally closer to Zhang Ning.

This was because Zhang Ning was a manager and Liang Mi was an artist.

It was as simple as that.

“Tell me from the beginning what exactly happened, including Little Xi’s performance in the production team until now.”

After Liu Fangyu sat down, Zhang Ning spoke.

Liu Fangyu said in a heavy tone, “I want to discuss what happened recently with President Zhang.”

“Oh?” Zhang Ning frowned and looked at Liu Fangyu. “It’s not just about the other programs recorded at the airport?”

Liu Fangyu shook his head with a bitter smile. “I really don’t know where to start.”

Zhang Ning straightened her back. “I have plenty of time. Just tell me in detail.”

Liu Fangyu nodded solemnly. Since President Zhang had said so, he decided to tell her everything from the beginning to the end.

He said, “President Zhang, do you know that there’s a new member like Lin Xi in the recent season?”

Zhang Ning nodded. “Liang Mi mentioned it. Little Xi mentioned when she spoke to her.”

She looked at Liu Fangyu in confusion. “The production team didn’t tell me. What do you want to explain?”

It wasn’t that Zhang Ning felt that she should inform her, but under normal circumstances, such problems were resolved by her manager.

However, if it involved new members like Lin Xi, the nature would be a little different.

“Here’s the thing.”

Liu Fangyu briefly described the entire process after Chen Che appeared in the production team, as well as the situation during the meeting on the 12th.

Zhang Ning had been listening silently.

After Liu Fangyu finished speaking, Zhang Ning looked at him. “Then what do you want to communicate with me? What decision do you want me to make?”

Liu Fangyu expressed his thoughts. “I think we should avoid interacting with Chen Che. Because Little Xi is becoming more and more affected by him, this is really puzzling. Today, when she went to check in behind my back and actually participated in the program Chen Che filmed at the airport. The impact is very bad.”

Liu Fangyu looked at Zhang Ning earnestly. “President Zhang, you also started from being a manager. You should know how complicated the entertainment industry is if an artiste is disobedient. There are traps everywhere. If you’re not careful, you’ll fall into them. Although this is only Little Xi’s first time, it already shows that Chen Che has a deep influence on her.”

Zhang Ning asked, “Does she have any personal relationship with Chen Che? Friends, or are there signs of them developing into a couple?”

Liu Fangyu thought for a moment and shook his head. “I don’t think so. Although I’m exhausted, I haven’t given them the chance.”

Widening his eyes, Liu Fangyu said hesitantly, “Actually, Chen Che saved Xi once. To be honest, Little Xi was strangely rebellious this time. She probably wanted to repay him. Because she was worried that I would object, she made this decision in private.”

Zhang Ning nodded lightly and pondered for a moment. “Alright, I roughly understand.”

She glared at Liu Fangyu. “Have you said everything you want to say?”

Liu Fangyu thought for a moment and said, “I can feel the change in Lin Xi’s mentality, especially her attitude towards me. She’s no longer as respectful as before. She doesn’t understand my way of doing things because of my duty as a manager.”

Zhang Ning frowned. “It’s only been one episode, right? Including the pilot, it’s only been a week. How did the situation develop so quickly?”

Liu Fangyu explained, “From the moment I started to guard against Chen Che and Lin Xi coming into contact, she was a little dissatisfied. She felt that there was something wrong with my way of handling things and shouldn’t have targeted him so obviously. However, reality has proven that too much contact with Chen Che has a huge impact on Xi. In the three years before she met him, Little Xi has worked with artists inside and outside the company many times and there has never been any problem.”

Zhang Ning waved her hand. “You don’t have to say that. I’ve always believed in your judgment and understand your work style. However, you need to restrain yourself.”

Liu Fangyu nodded in agreement.

Zhang Ning paused and gestured to Liu Fangyu. “Tell me how Chen Che saved Lin Xi.”

Liu Fangyu recounted how Chen Che was injured again in order to catch Lin Xi after being injured in another production team.

However, he also emphasized that Chen Che had been injured earlier. This time, he was only injured on top of his injuries, not because of Lin Xi.

“I see..”
