Xia Zhiyi: "I'll listen to you."
Xu Chen: "You don't have to listen to me completely. I'm just suggesting it. If you want to see him, it's fine. Lou Wangxing has already suffered a loss with President Fu, so he probably won't dare to cause any trouble."
Xia Zhiyi: "Well, even if you hadn't said anything, Sister Chen, I wasn't planning on meeting you."
He's not that free.
After confirming Xia Zhiyi's intentions, Xu Chen hung up the phone and went to reject Lou Wangxing's offer.
"Wait a minute, Miss Xu, we truly want to apologize to Teacher Xia. Please give us a chance?"
Xu Chen spoke calmly over the phone, but his face remained expressionless. "It's like this, since you were able to find out that Teacher Xia is studying at University A, you should also know that Teacher Xia is currently focusing mainly on his studies. Teacher Xia has indeed been very busy lately, and since your arrangements were made at the last minute, we really couldn't spare the time. We're truly sorry."
Xu Chen: "You see, as a student, Teacher Xia shouldn't just skip class so easily, right?"
Hearing Xu Chen's words, Lou Wangxing, who had been listening silently, couldn't help but think, "So what if he skips class? How many students don't skip class these days? I even came to the school in person to apologize to him. Shouldn't we at least meet?"
Rejecting her without even meeting her is incredibly disrespectful!
Since Lou Wangxing became famous, he has been fawned over wherever he goes. When people are fawned over for too long, they may lose their rationality.
For example, right now, she knows in her heart that if she wants to resolve this matter, the key is still Xia Zhiyi, because Fu Chi is clearly standing up for Xia Zhiyi. As long as she can get Xia Zhiyi to forgive her, be willing to let her go, or even be willing to befriend her, the subsequent matters will be much easier to handle.
She might even be able to gain some benefits from Xia Zhiyi. As for the specifics of Xia Zhiyi's relationship with Fu Chi, and how long that relationship would last, what business is it of hers?
But emotionally, Xia Zhiyi's rejection made Lou Wangxing feel extremely uncomfortable.
But she's not out of her mind, and neither is her agent; they wouldn't turn against Xu Chen at this point.
So Lou Wangxing's agent said politely, "Okay, okay, that was indeed our oversight. We were too anxious and didn't consider Teacher Xia's schedule."
"Does Teacher Xia have classes this afternoon? Then, how about we arrange dinner for her tonight? We really want to apologize to Teacher Xia in person. We were too impulsive last time; we didn't think things through and misunderstood Teacher Xia..."
Xu Chen chuckled on the phone and said, "Oh, I'm really sorry..."
Regardless of what Lou Wangxing said, Xu Chen's side always conveyed the same message: Sorry, I'm busy.
No matter how angry Lou Wangxing was inside because of Xu Chen's rejection, he still hung up the phone politely.
Then, Lou Wangxing's agent exchanged a glance with her and said irritably, "This Xu Chen, does he really treat that Xia Zhiyi a treasure? She's just a..."
The manager didn't say it out loud, but judging from her expression, she still didn't think much of Xia Zhiyi.
If it weren't for Fu Chi standing behind him, they wouldn't have paid any attention to Xia Zhiyi, such a nobody.
Lou Wangxing sat in silence for a while, then suddenly spoke up, "So Xu Chen meant that Xia Zhiyi didn't have time to see me because she had to attend classes, right?"
The agent nodded. "She makes it sound so nice, like Xia Zhiyi is so studious. Getting into University A is nothing special, but in the end, she still has to find a sugar daddy. I heard she even got into the ' Chasing ' drama crew through Fu Chi's connections."
"It's great to have a powerful backer. President Fu's connections and resources can't be too bad. Even if Hangu Group hasn't been involved in the entertainment industry much before, and is just promoting a newcomer, throwing money at it can still produce some results."
As she said this, the agent glanced at Lou Wangxing, exasperated. "Look at you, when I introduced you to President Wang before, you weren't happy. See? If you had gotten close to President Wang, at least you would have someone to talk to President Fu, right?"
"If President Wang were willing to step in for you, things wouldn't be in this situation now."
"These people are primarily driven by self-interest..."
Lou Wangxing lowered his head, interrupting her impatiently, "Alright, what's the point of saying anything more now that things have come to this?"
Don't they even consider what kind of person President Wang, and what kind of person Fu Chi is?
A middle-aged man with a large belly and a bald head, who is also married, and I heard that he goes around proclaiming that his family is harmonious and his husband and wife are loving, but in reality... haha.
Let's look at another one. Single, zero scandals, her face alone is enough to outshine everyone in the business world. If her agent had been able to put her in Fu Chi's bed before, would Lou Wangxing have refused?
Hilarious! If she really manages to hook up with Fu Chi, it's hard to say who'll actually benefit.
But what can they do when none of them have that ability?
Or rather, none of them had expected that Fu Chi was actually attracted to men.
Lou Wangxing: " Xu Chen isn't working out, could you contact Xia Zhiyi directly?"
The agent was speechless. "Do you think I didn't think of that? I know Xu Chen's methods all too well. If I hadn't been unable to contact Xia Zhiyi herself, would I have bothered with Xu Chen?"
Lou Wangxing frowned. "Still can't get through on the phone?"
Agent: "Yeah, I don't know what's wrong with Xia Zhiyi's phone. I've tried calling her from several different numbers but I can't get through."
Lou Wangxing: "..."
Lou Wangxing was silent for a while, then looked up at his agent and asked, "We can't get an appointment, but we're already at University A, right? Can you find out which class Xia Zhiyi has this afternoon? Let's try to bump into her."
The agent asked doubtfully, "Will it work?"
Lou Wangxing: "Why not give it a try? We've come all this way to a prestigious university, so it's perfectly normal to want to stroll around the campus after filming, right? I don't think Xia Zhiyi has a bad temper; at least on the surface, he seems quite easy to get along with. He won't get angry just because we bumped into each other, will he?"
The agent hesitated, "But if this gets to Xu Chen's ears, I'm afraid she'll... Never mind, I don't think Xu Chen really wants to keep such a young mistress. Let's give it a try."
Coincidentally, Xia Zhiyi was quite famous at University A, and many people knew him.
Finding out about Xia Zhiyi isn't difficult at all, but...
The agent returned looking displeased. " Xia Zhiyi's class doesn't have classes this afternoon."
Lou Wangxing: "... What about club activities?"
Agent: " Xia Zhiyi didn't join any clubs."
Lou Wangxing: "..."
