Chapter 246: Chapter 247: As long as I’m around, you won’t have the chance to succeed

Translator: 549690339

Shen Manbing is a top-tier celebrity at Time.

It’s not unusual for her to show up here.

But considering their past interactions,

Xia Yangyang thought it would be best if she didn’t appear before her.

So, Xia Yangyang hurried into the elevator.

Xia Yangyang went straight to Shen Shichuan’s office.

As prearranged, Shen Shichuan’s secretary Zhou Fei guided her in.

Shen Shichuan was on the phone.

Seeing Xia Yangyang come in, he gestured to a spot on the couch.

Xia Yangyang sat down on the couch and waited quietly.

A little later, Shen Shichuan hung up the phone and came over to her, “Sorry for keeping you waiting.”

Xia Yangyang smiled and said, “It’s fine, it was just five minutes.”

Shen Shichuan asked, “What should we have for today’s meal?”

“I’m okay with anything, you choose the place. I’ll treat you. I haven’t properly thanked you for the huge favor last time.”

Shen Shichuan responded warmly, “You promised me something before. A meal wouldn’t be enough to square us off, so let me treat you today.”

The purpose of today’s meeting was to discuss work.

Without insisting further, Xia Yangyang said, “Alright, I will treat you next chance I have.”

Shen Shichuan handed a file to Xia Yangyang: “This is your promotional schedule for the next few days. Please see if there are any issues.”

Xia Yangyang flipped through it and said, “It should be fine. I will try to be as cooperative as possible.”

Shen Shichuan said, “Yangyang, I hope you could reconsider signing a contract with us.”

Previously, Xia Yangyang had filmed a television drama without a contract. Shen Shichuan brought up the issue a few times, but she had diplomatically declined each time.

Xia Yangyang smiled, “I am not interested in the entertainment industry.”

“But you are already a part of it. After Christmas, Cinderella will premiere, and I believe your popularity will skyrocket. I have a few good movie scripts at hand. As long as you sign the contract, you can choose a script you like and shoot a box-office hit while your popularity is peaking. I can groom you to be the next Shen Manbing.” Shen Shichuan’s voice was soft but decisive.

” It won’ t be as easy as you think to become the next me!”

The office door was pushed open.

Shen Manbing appeared at the doorway.

It seemed like Shen Manbing had just attended an event. Despite the chilly November weather, she was dressed in just a thin gown.

A fur shawl draped over her shoulders, her long hair cascading down, her makeup dazzlingly cool.

Shen Manbing strode right in and slammed her small purse on Shen Shichuan’s desk: “Brother, you know how much I despise this woman. Why do you still want to sign her? There’s room for either her or me in Time, not both. Think it through.”

Shen Shichuan frowned, “Xiao Bing, don’t be so unreasonable. There’s a difference between work and personal life.”

“For me, it’s all the same.”

Shen Manbing turned around, slowly approaching Xia Yangyang. Her intimidating aura, combined with her high heels, made her seem much taller than Xia Yangyang.

Almost talking down to her, Shen Manbing said, “First you stole Ah Chen, and now you want to take my spot? Xia Yangyang, no matter how cunning your tactics may be, I’ll make sure you never succeed. As long as I, Shen Manbing, exist in this industry, there will be no day for you, Xia Yangyang, to rise to fame. Just you wait. I won’t let go until you’re ruined.”

“Enough! Shen Manbing!” Shen Shichuan shouted in anger.

Shen Manbing looked at Shen Shichuan in disbelief, “Brother, you’ve never raised your voice at me before.”

She became very agitated, “Xia Yangyang, what did you do to them? How did you succeed in bewitching them? I’m going to expose your true colors today.”

Saying this, she raised her hand to slap Xia Yangyang across her face.
