The private room was about a hundred square meters in size. You could eat, play cards, sing, and taste wine in it. Four people were sitting around the round table, two men and two women. The two men seemed to be frequenters. One of them had a big belly, and the other one seemed to be a heavy drinker, as he was skinny and had an unhealthy dark complexion. As for the other two women, they were obviously here to keep them company.
"Ah, why isn't Mr. Yi here? Isn't he in Xia City as well?" asked the big-bellied man as he put his arm around one of the women.
"Mr. Yi is very busy. He went back to An City this afternoon after receiving a call, so I came here alone," said Zhong Yi as she handed Luosang her bag.
Luosang speechlessly took off Zhong Yi's coat and bag, then pulled a chair out of the way. Zhong Yi elegantly spread her body and sat down on the chair.
As she did that, everyone in the room turned their eyes to her. She wasn't dressed as luxuriously as Zhong Yi, but just by standing there quietly, she looked like a blooming flower.
"Is this a new girl from your Xu Group?" The skinny man rubbed his chin, narrowed his eyes, and chuckled. "She's pretty. Mr. Yi is overestimating us by letting her come here. Compared with her, these two girls are too plain."
Luosang felt disgusted. Did he mean that Yi Jingxi often used new girls to keep company? No wonder the Xu Group had grown so much in just two years.
Back when she was with her father, he would never allow something like that to happen.
She didn't expect that Yi Jingxi, who was as gentle as the moon when he was with her, would become so unscrupulous. Or was he always like that?
As she thought, she didn't know how to judge people well, and she even got her father into trouble.
"Don't talk nonsense." Zhong Yi covered her mouth and giggled. "She's my assistant, and also my friend. She's Xu Luosang from the Xu Group. You know her, right? Ever since her father went to jail, I let her work for me since she's unemployed."
Friend …
Luosang was truly amazed by her shamelessness.
However, as a sensitive girl, she soon noticed that the big-bellied man had a meaningful look in his eyes after hearing Zhong Yi's words.
"Oh, so she's Xu Zhengxuan's daughter."
"Mr. Lin, do you know Principal Xu?" Zhong Yi pretended to be surprised.
"What kind of bullsh * t principal is he? He's just fishing for fame. If someone like him can become a principal, then I can be a high-ranking official." Mr. Lin laughed in disdain. "Back when Xu Zhengxuan was still the chairman of Xu Pictures, I invested tens of millions in his next movie just to get one of his female artists to sleep with me. He wasn't willing and directly withdrew my investment. He even publicly announced that he didn't like people like me. I thought he was a virtuous person, but it turns out that he's just so-so."
Every word he said was like a hammer pounding on Luosang's heart.
She really wanted to stand up and splash the water on his face, but she couldn't. She could only bear with it and remain silent.
No matter how slow-witted she was, she could sense that the dinner tonight was not as simple as it seemed.
She couldn't afford to offend these people at the moment. Even if she scolded them, she would only be able to vent her anger.
"Mr. Lin, please don't say that in front of Luosang. After all, that man is her father," said Zhong Yi.
"Zhong Yi, you're so kind-hearted," Mr. Lin smiled and said, "If Xu Luosang really treated you as a good friend, her father would have made you famous long ago, instead of Yi Jingxi." Mr. Lin smiled and said, "Don't you think so?
