They reached the top floor, and the door of the elevator opened automatically. However, the employee did not step out of the elevator, and instead cheered Leia on. "You can do it. I won't go in with you, but you can call us if anything happens."When Leia stepped out of the elevator, the employee left quickly.Leia huffed in irritation. 'Why do I feel like I'm sacrificing myself?'When she reached the door of Xavier's office, she heard his angry roar from afar."Is your marketing department completely useless? How dare you sign on a novice with such poor skills? What makes them different from this trainee from Korshach? How competitive is this novice? I can easily find a better person. Get lost and reflect on your mistake!"After that, a middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses was driven out of the office with a stack of documents. The man pitifully squatted down on the floor to pick up the documents, looking unhappy."Let me help you." Leia squatted down and helped him pick up
"I... I'm sorry." Xavier was stunned, and spoke like a child who had made a mistake. "My employees can handle being rebuked. They won't change if I don't scold them, so I have to do this""Is that really the reason? You're overly violent, so they don't dare to resist." Leia glared at him as she touched her swollen forehead, gritting her teeth in pain. "Did I wrong you? Why am I so unlucky whenever I meet you?""Come here, let me take a look." Xavier pulled her hand away. When he saw a slight scratch on her forehead, he felt very sorry for her. He blew at the wound gently and pressed a soft kiss to her forehead. "Wait. I have ointment and a plaster here. Let me tend to it." He then led her to the sofa and opened his drawer to get the small medical kit. He was attentive and considerate, being unusually gentle and kind. It was very different from his usual frivolity. "Stop it, I'm not that weak. It'll heal soon..." Leia tried her best to keep her distance because she didn't want to
Cut the crap! Here, I'll fix it." Leia became flustered because of his words, so she grabbed his face with her hands. Recalling what she learned in her university elective lesson about putting back one's joints, she applied a bit of force, and they soon heard a crack. "Move it and see if it's cured," she clapped and said confidently.Xavier moved his chin, and to his surprise, it didn't hurt as badly. Nonetheless, he wanted to bluff Leia. "No, it still hurts. Hmm, my face is going to be ruined now. What do you think you should do to compensate me?" "It still hurts? That can't be." Leia frowned and took a step forward. She then grabbed his face again. "Should I do it again?""No, I'm fine now." Xavier immediately dodged. He might die instead of merely ruining his face if he went through that again. Leia realized he had tricked her, and became furious. "Can you be serious? Is it fun to fool me?" "Yes, it's fun!" Xavier smirked and got close to her. "I think it's fun when we bic
"Calm down..." Xavier tried to console Leia. "I hear you, but I'm afraid this incident isn't as simple as you think. Shirley holds no grudges against Quinton, and they don't even talk, so there's no point in her risking her future to harm him...""Ugh, shut up!" When Leia heard his words, she was so angry that she wanted to leave, but she forced herself to stay since she had a favor to ask of him. So, she gritted her teeth and sneered, "I told you someone told me that she heard the plastic surgeon talking to Shirley on the phone before the surgery. He even asked her to rest assured since he would get the job done. Do you really think she's innocent? This woman isn't as simple as you think, but you always regard her as your untouchable first love. You just don't want to admit it.""You're wrong," Xavier said coldly, "I know better than you that there's more to her than meets the eye. If not, I wouldn't have fallen out with her... I just want you to properly analyze who the culprit is.
He got a professional ATV and bought a lot of supplies to put in the trunk before leaving. They were all Leia's favorite fruits and snacks.Leia was slightly moved when she saw him do all this for her. She leaned against the car and handed him a tissue paper as she said teasingly, "We've broken up, so you don't have to be so considerate. If not, I'll think that you still can't forget about me."She regretted her comment immediately and added, "Don't get me wrong, I'm just joking. I'm not the kind of person who likes getting back together with exes.""Me neither." After he made that light comment, he placed the box of her favorite biscuits in the trunk.Leia scowled, hating the way he affected her.They set off in the car and soon came to the highway around the ocean.Leia called Renee. "Ren, are you okay? How is Quinton doing?""We got a more awesome expert, so there's a very high chance that he'll wake up." "Well, that's good." Leia felt relieved. "I may be away for a few da
It had been raining recently, so the road was bumpy with mud. One could not drive on it, and it was very hard to walk on the road too."Maybe we should go back…" Xavier frowned deeply when he saw the road. He felt that a rich young lady like Leia wouldn't be able to handle this."Go?" To his surprise, Leia rolled the legs of her trousers up and actually looked excited. "What a wonderful experience! I've only seen this in movies. How can I leave?"After that, she took off her shoes and happily walked onto the road. "Are you a woman? You're so tough. Don't you find the mud dirty?" Xavier stood at a clean spot and watched Leia stomp through the mud in disbelief. Although he wasn't a germaphobe, he couldn't bear stepping in the mud with bare feet. "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up, it's just mud. We can wash our feet clean later." Leia had walked a hundred meters when she realized that Xavier was still standing there hesitantly.She didn't realize that he was such a sissy
"I'm most afraid of dogs! Where are they?" Xavier hid behind Leia. He was nearly 190cm tall, but he looked like a kid hiding behind his mother's skirts. Leia pursed her lips and tried her best to suppress her laughter, and patted his head as if he was a child. "Don't be scared, I'll protect you. Dogs won't hurt you. Just stay behind me and stop screaming."They supported each other like an old couple and walked through that muddy road until they finally arrived at the set of Happy Days. "Finally, it's over!" Xavier heaved a deep sigh, feeling like he had gone through hell."Stop exaggerating!" Leia looked at him in confusion. "This is a remote village, so there'll be mud and dogs everywhere. Why did you torture yourself and come with me if you were so scared?""What do you think?" Xavier headed to a small stream and washed his feet, smiling faintly. "Do I look like someone who purposely looks for trouble?""Yes, you do!" Leia replied bluntly.Xavier rolled his eyes. "I was wor
Angelo Fairfax, a famous singer, became desperate as he gritted his teeth and complained, "I can't take it anymore! I've never met such a delicate star even though I debuted so many years ago. She joined a variety show in the countryside, but doesn't even want to drink the water at this place. She demanded pure water from an expensive brand, and even asked me to cook using that water. Where can I get so much of that? How preposterous!"Angelo was in charge of cooking in the show, and he was good at it. The others enjoyed his cooking, and his skills helped him gain a lot of fans. However, Shirley had started ordering him around after she joined the show. She claimed that the pasta was undercooked and that there were insects in the food. However, what infuriated him the most was that she demanded he cook with that expensive water, or else she wouldn't eat."I've met self-important people, but she's way too much. I'm no longer famous but I was quite a successful singer in the past. I've
