Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhou Xuefang and the rest of the group were still immersed in Sunset Lover’s confession.
They thought that no matter who this person was, it would disgust Su Ji’s fans.
Who would have thought that he was Old Master Pei.
Su Ji had the most powerful fan in the nation at the moment.
Ten minutes after the video was released, someone realized that the account who exposed the identity of Sunset Lover and with 8 million followers was frozen.
After a while, the platform showed that the account had been banned for spreading rumors.
!!!
A powerful account like that was banned just like that?
All the other accounts who posted about similar topics immediately deleted their posts and posted an apology video without waiting for the Pei family to respond, “we must respect the elderly and protect the young. Everyone also has the right to chase after celebrities!”
Si Jingchuan took out his phone and found his “boss” on WeChat.
Si Jingchuan asked, “boss, did you see the video?” Old Master Pei said that he’s your fan.
After a while, he received a reply.
[ “No, I’m not at home.” ]
Si Jingchuan asked, “are you on the way to Blue Whale? I’m here as well, but I think it’ll take a while. You know, I’m the Best Actor and the male lead afterall. I’ll go meet you when I’m done.”
He wanted to show off, but Su Ji didn’t care.
[“Oh, I’m busy today too. Don’t come to me.” ]
Si Jingchuan was speechless.
What a personality!
“Ms. Pei, long time no see!”
Ren Guanghua’s excited voice was heard. Everyone turned around at the same time. When they saw who it was, they felt as if they had been hit in the head again.
The mature and beautiful woman in front of them was…Pei Xi, the most popular manager in the entertainment industry.
The woman had a strong aura. She was beautiful, smart, and capable.
The conference room was silent for half a minute.
“Ms. Pei Xi?” Zhou Xuefang was not able to hold back, “I heard that you’ve been overseas all this while?”
Su Qianrou covered her mouth in surprise, “Ms. Pei Xi! I love Bill so much! Did he return to the country with you?”
After she finished speaking, she quickly glanced at Song Heng, afraid that he would get jealous.
However, Song Heng did not hear what she said at all. He was just surprised by Pei Xi’s sudden appearance.
Everyone in the entertainment industry knew about the top-notch manager from Blue Whale.
What a manager needed the most in the entertainment industry was connections. As the daughter of the Pei family, not only did others want to please her, her second brother was an expert in Chinese medicine, and her third brother…was the CEO of Blue Whale Entertainment!
She had everything, connections, looks, and great family background.
Countless artistes were fighting to work under her.
However, it was obvious that she was just a manager for fun. A few years ago, she had announced that she would be withdrawing from the entertainment industry and would go abroad to enjoy life.
Why did she suddenly appear here today?
Song Heng had a feeling that Pei Xi’s sudden appearance was related to the mysterious second female lead.
Sure enough, Ren Guanghua said politely, “PEI Xi, I’ll leave this to you.” Then, he said cautiously, “the girl that the CEO…”
Pei Xi nodded in understanding, “don’t worry. I’ll be her manager from now on.”
In an instant, the meeting room was dead silent, and there was the sound of people gasping…
Supported by CEO Pei and being assigned a top-notch manager…
The second female lead was about to take off!
Song Heng immediately thought that if he could develop a relationship with this woman…

Pei Xi ignored all the noise.
She was very excited now.
A few seconds later, her gaze swept past the others and finally fell on Song Heng.
Song Heng quickly handed over his business card. “Ms. Pei, I’m the director. I’ll do my best.”
Pei Xi did not take his name card. Instead, she asked a very strange question, “you…were Su Ji’s ex-boyfriend?”
In the few days that she had returned to the country, she had done a thorough investigation of her future sister-in-law.
What the other netizens thought was a scandal was nothing to Pei Xi.
Based on her analysis, the reason why Pei Huai had not managed to get with her was probably because she had been hurt by that scumbag!
Song Heng did not dare to look Pei Xi in the eye. Of course, he had no idea that Pei Xi was looking at him with disdain.
When he heard Su Ji’s name, he felt disgusted.
Everything stays on the Internet.
He did not expect that even a Pei Xi would be paying attention to him and even asked about his past.
“It was all in the past. I’ve cut off all ties with her. There is nothing between us anymore and it won’t affect the filming and publicity of this movie,” Song Heng said firmly.
Beside him, Su Qianrou looked at him with joy and happiness in her heart.
Pei Xi nodded, “do you guarantee that you’ll answer like this every time the media asks you about it?”

Song Heng did not hesitate, “I guarantee it!”

Pei Xi curled her lips and said mockingly, “great.”

Since the key person had yet to arrive, Song Heng distributed some scripts to everyone.
Pei Xi was cold and aloof, and no one dared to talk to her.
Su Qianrou’s script was much thinner than the others, especially compared to the second female lead’s, which was left on the conference table. It was more than ten times thicker than hers.
Just as she was about to open her script, the door of the meeting room was pushed open from the outside.
Su Ji stepped into the room.
“Su Ji?” Su Qianrou’s face turned ugly, obviously embarrassed, “you’re in the wrong room. We’re having a meeting here, and everyone here is important. Get out.”
Zhou Xuefang rolled her eyes at her before turning back to her script.
Song Heng’s heart tightened. What a persistent person. He had just cleared his name. Why was she here again?
Before Pei Xi could see her, he took a few steps forward and stopped her, “Su Ji, listen to me. We’ll talk later.”
Su Ji put her hands in her pockets and dodged nimbly to the side. Song Heng’s hand did not touch her.
She glanced at the people in the room and chuckled, “why should I leave? I’m here for the meeting.”
Song Heng was shocked, “what meeting are you here for?”
However, the next second, Su Ji walked past him and stood in front of the conference table. She took the script for the second female lead.
