C118 The Initiative

Xia Jing bit her lip and looked at him with eyes full of hatred.

"Xiao Jing, I'll send you back." Shen Ruo Bai softened her voice. Her cold face seemed to be a little tired under the hazy moonlight.

Perhaps, he shouldn't have shown up in front of this woman during this period of time.

However, it was good that he could endure it.

He couldn't bear to see her any longer.

In the end, Xia Jing was unable to convince him and was sent back to the apartment by Shen Ruo Bai.

However, Shen Ruo Bai kept her word. This time, she didn't do anything. She just sent her downstairs and left.

The sound of Xia Jing closing the door was very loud. As soon as the door was closed, she angrily sat on the sofa. She didn't even turn on the light, so she lowered her head and fell into deep thought.

He had known Shen Ruo Bai for five years, but he had never felt so confused about her. He had always been decisive and decisive, but in this period of time, everything he had done seemed to have changed him into a completely different person.

If he really wanted to cut off his relationship with her, then with his personality, he would definitely not provoke him time and time again.

Also, Fan Xin Ran, where did he put that woman? When he appeared tonight, did he leave Fan Xin Ran behind to look for him?

The more Xia Jing thought about it, the more she felt that everything that had happened recently was not right.

She only cared about feeling sad and resentful, but neglected a lot of details.

Suddenly, she grabbed the phone and flipped through the phone list. Finally, she found Xie Yan's number.

After hesitating for a few seconds, she dialed it.

It rang a few times before someone answered. It was a bit noisy, but Xie Yan's voice was still as loud as usual, and his tone was a little domineering, "Hello, who is it?"

"It's me." Xia Jing lowered her voice slightly, but Xie Yan could still hear it, "S-sister-in-law?" He seemed to be very shocked.

"Am I that scary?" Xia Jing furrowed her brows slightly, "Xie Yan, where are you?"

"Sister-in-law, why did you suddenly call me?" Xie Yan repeatedly confirmed the number. All these years, the number of times that his sister-in-law called him could be counted on five fingers. Every time it was because of his brother. Could it be that she also wanted to get something out of him this time?

"Is it important? Why is it so noisy over there? Where are you?"

"I'm playing outside. And you won't be interested in where I'm playing. If you have any questions, ask Li Nan. I don't know anything." After saying that, Xie Yan hurriedly hung up the phone. His sister-in-law was a smart person. If he talked to her a little more, she would reveal everything.

For safety's sake, he tried his best not to talk to her.

Anyway, if he talked too much, his brother would be unhappy.

"How do you know there's a problem with me?" Xia Jing looked at the phone that Xie Yan had hung up on and frowned even more.

With such a guilty conscience, it seemed that there really was a problem.

The next morning, after Xia Jing entered the company, she rushed straight to Su An's office.

Su An was actually filled with guilt towards her. When she saw her, she was anxious to explain, "Xiao Jing, last night, I really didn't want to leave you behind. It's all Li Nan's fault. He insisted on dragging me away. I really didn't want to abandon you."

She clearly knew that Xiao Jing and Shen Ruo Bai's situation was very awkward right now, so how could she leave her alone?

However, Li Nan insisted on dragging her away like a lunatic. She was so angry that she had a huge argument with him when she went back. They were still in a cold war now.

"I didn't come to find you because of what happened last night." Xia Jing elegantly held her forehead. Moreover, last night, she said that she would let Li Nan and her go first, and then she took a taxi. How could she blame her?

"Where is Li Nan?"

"Where are you looking for him?" Su An opened her eyes slightly wide, "I didn't come here with him this morning. He will probably arrive at the company later. Why are you looking for him?"

"It's a very important matter." Xia Jing thought for a while, "Call him and ask him to come to the company as soon as possible. After that, go to my office and report to me."

After Xia Jing finished speaking, she left. Su An chased after her and asked, "What important thing? I'm in a cold war with him right now, so it's not convenient for me to call him. It's better for you to call him. "

"Cold war?" Xia Jing suddenly stopped and stared at Su An: "Just because of a small matter?"

For some reason, she felt a headache coming on. "Li Nan didn't pick up my call. He already called me last night. It's not good to have a cold war between lovers. It's too hurtful. Hurry up and call him."

Seeing the anxious expression on Xia Jing's face, Su An was too lazy to argue with Li Nan anymore. She took out her phone and dialed Li Nan's number.

After calling him three times in front of Xia Jing, no one answered.

"Damn, this guy is messing with me. Bastard, I'll ignore him again!" Su An was so angry that smoke was coming out of her nose, and she almost threw her phone away.

The light in Xia Jing's clear eyes deepened. Xie Yan had called Li Nan at the first possible moment, colluding with him to isolate her?

Good, really good!

Xia Jing quickly walked back to the office and called Ai Mi, "Contact Fan Xin Ran's manager for me. I want to see Fan Xin Ran."

Ai Mi was very efficient, and in the afternoon, they had already arranged the time and place of the meeting.

As an artist, most of Fan Xin Ran's schedule was arranged by her manager. Although she was reluctant, the meeting with Xia Jing was arranged by the company, so she had no choice but to attend.

"Miss Fan, we meet again." Xia Jing, who was wearing formal clothes, sat opposite Fan Xin Ran.

"What do you want to see me for?" Fan Xin Ran did not give her any face at all.

She did not like this person from the bottom of her heart.

"Discussing a collaboration." Xia Jing took out the contract, "I've already discussed it with your company's manager. Miss Fan will be the spokesperson for the next season's new products."

"What?" Fan Xin Ran obviously did not expect this. After looking at the contract, she stood up excitedly and said, "Who wants to work with you?"

For a small company like the Xia Enterprise, it was ridiculous for Fan Xin Ran, an A-tier celebrity, to be the spokesperson.

No matter how much money she was given, she would not take the photos.

"I'm afraid it's not up to you. Your manager has already signed this contract. I only brought it over for Miss Fan to have a look and be mentally prepared, but you don't have any other choice." Xia Jing smiled very elegantly.

Fan Xin Ran looked at her and felt a little creepy, "Xia Jing, what are you planning?"

If she was forced to work with her, would the Xia Enterprise not be able to find a spokesperson? It was obvious that the two of them did not like each other, so why would they work together to annoy each other? Was there something wrong with this woman?

"What else could I possibly want? Miss Fan is now quite well-known, especially after the scandal with Shen Tong, the popularity of her company has only increased, but not reduced. Our Xia Group's business is still in its development phase, and we really need someone like Miss Fan, who has been on the topic list for a long time to increase the company's reputation." Xia Jing explained very well and did not hide her selfish motives.

Fan Xin Ran looked at her in shock, "Shen Tong from the Shen Family Enterprise? Xia Jing, did you forget that he was your fiancé in the past?!"

She actually wanted to use the two of them to publicize the Xia Family Corporation. What was this woman thinking?

"The past is the past, and the present is the present. There is no conflict between the two of them, is there?" Xia Jing was very calm. "The price I offered your company is not low either. I believe that we can achieve a win-win situation if we work together."

"In your dreams! I will not cooperate with you!" Fan Xin Ran felt that this woman's goal was not that simple. She knew very well about the grudge between the two of them. If this woman took the initiative to work with her, it would definitely be detrimental to her.

She would not be the fish on the chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered.

"If we don't cooperate, Miss Fan, do you think you can pay her a large amount of compensation for breaking the contract?" Xia Jing's finger tapped on the huge amount of compensation for breaking the contract.

It was obvious that she came prepared.

"You..." Fan Xin Ran was so angry that her face turned red.

Xia Jing actually smiled to herself, "Isn't it a win-win situation? What was Miss Fan worried about? As an artist, what you want is money. If my Xia family's company gives you money, shouldn't you be working for our company as if it's only natural?"

"So you cooperated with me on purpose to humiliate me, right?" Fan Xin Ran gritted her teeth.

This was this woman's intention. Just because she said last night that she only knew how to spend other people's money and would only be supported by others, she would use money to humiliate her today.

"If Miss Fan wants to understand it like this, I can't do anything about it. But the situation is that you have no control over yourself." Xia Jing smiled calmly.

Fan Xin Ran really wanted to pour the water on this woman's face.

"No wonder Shen Ruo Bai doesn't want you. No man will like a cunning woman like you!" The only sore point Fan Xin Ran could think of was Shen Ruo Bai.

After all, when she came out of the Shen family business that day, she saw this woman cry.

"As a public figure, don't you need to think about it before you speak? Sly and cunning, I, Xia Jing, have always done things openly. How could I be sinister and cunning? As for whether or not there will be a man who likes it, I believe that only those who lack men will consider this kind of problem. As for me, I don't have time to think about this kind of problem at all, do I? "

Xia Jing did not come here to argue with her. Under Fan Xin Ran's ashen face, Xia Jing put away the contract and looked at her indifferently, "You and Shen Ruo Bai are just putting on a show, right? Taking what each of them needed?"

After a night, she suddenly understood a lot of things.

With Shen Ruo Bai's personality, suddenly coming into contact with Fan Xin Ran must mean that she had a need for something.

As for what request it was, it was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface. She believed that Shen Ruo Bai's eyes would not take a liking to such a woman. Furthermore, based on his usual behavior, it could be seen that he was just putting on a show with this woman.

Shen Ruo Bai must be plotting something, and the reason she came into contact with Fan Xin Ran was to find out what Shen Ruo Bai was planning.

Her intuition told her that this matter was not that simple.

Perhaps after so many days of confusion, she would soon find the answer.

She couldn't be passive like a fool. She needed to hold the initiative in her hands.
