979: The Arrogance

The Arrogance

Xu Xiyan pulled Ni Xuelin up and checked the blood dripping from her mouth.2

"Did they do anything to you other than hitting you?" Xu Xiyan asked.

"No."

Xu Xiyan turned to Shen Mengyuan and asked, "Miss Shen, can you explain why you just hit my assistant?"

Shen Mengyuan was not a complete stranger to Xu Xiyan.

Xu Xiyan, Shen Mengyuan, and Lan Ling'er had all been chosen as the charity ambassadors for the recent charity visit.

But since Shen Mengyuan was quite close to Lan Ling'er, Xu Xiyan did not talk much to her.

She only knew Shen Mengyuan was the runner-up for Miss Universe and became a top model in Zstan before stepping her foot in the acting industry.

Xu Xiyan also heard that she was filming a new show in Hengshan that was sponsored by her fiancé, Li Zhonghao.

Shen Mengyuan was more famed and experienced than Xu Xiyan, and she would be nominated for that year's Gold Goose's Newcomer Award.

Shen Mengyuan realized who Xu Xiyan was when she heard Ni Xuelin calling her "Jing Xi." The name had become one of the most searched online, and she was very well-known because of her marriage with Huo Yunshen.

According to various analysts, Jing Xi had a very high chance of winning the Newcomer Award.

It meant that Jing Xi would be Shen Mengyuan's biggest competitor.

But even so, Shen Mengyuan did not think much about Jing Xi because she thought they were both the same, actresses who gained fame through their partners.

"You must be Miss Jing, right?" Shen Mengyuan said. "I think you should understand the situation before blaming it on me first! She was the one who spilled coffee on me and insulted me, is there anything wrong if I hit her because of that? And just because of that, you hurt my assistant and bodyguards?"

"Don't you think you should inform me first before hitting her? Don't you think there's a reason that she insulted you instead of other people around here?"

"You really are good with talking. Do you think you can be so arrogant because you have Huo Yunshen backing you?"

"What's wrong with my husband having my back? Aren't you the same too? Relying solely on Li Zhonghao? Without him, what are you?"

"Do you think you have the right to say that?"

"Of course I do. You're just his mistress, a person who ruined another person's life."

Xu Xiyan had already asked Huo Sanyan to do background checks on Li Zhonghao and Shen Mengyuan.

What surprised Xu Xiyan was that Li Zhonghao had more than one or two girlfriends, Shen Mengyuan was only one of Li Zhonghao's new sweethearts.

"Jing Xi!" Shen Mengyuan was angered by Xu Xiyan's remark and scolded. "I don't care who you are or who has your back! This is my fiance's hotel, and this place does not welcome you!"

Xu Xiyan did plan to leave with Ni Xuelin but decided not to do so when Shen Mengyuan tried to chase her out.

"Of course I know this hotel belongs to Li Zhonghao, but business is still business, and I'm a customer here. Even Mr. Li has no right to chase away a customer if they did not perform any misconduct."
