Lan Xi looked at Tangning with an extreme sense of ridicule as she crossed her legs to the other side casually. In the silence, she seemed to be hinting: Did you think a mere model like yourself could make me feel regret?

I really don't know where your confidence comes from...

Li Danni had a similar look of mockery on her face while Hua Yuan gave Tangning a slightly anxious look. Seeing Tangning facing off with Lan Xi, Hua Yuan felt herself sweating on behalf of her. It seemed she was worried that Tangning wouldn't be able to survive in Cheng Tian, or worse, the entertainment industry.

"I guess I'll have to wait and see how you will make me regret. Originally, I was planning to give a few of the jobs from Danni and Hua Yuan back to you, but it seems I don't have to anymore."

Tangning smiled slightly; she didn't seem to be affected the way Lan Xi expected. In fact, she was exceptionally calm, "If there's nothing else President Lan, then I'll be heading home."

"If you want, you can stay and listen as I brief these girls on the jobs they will be taking from you. I don't mind," Lan Xi looked away and spoke coldly.

Tangning did not allow these harsh words to make her uncomfortable. She simply gave Lan Xi a meaningful glance as she turned to leave.

At least when she first signed her contract, she had entered Cheng Tian with high hopes.

At least...she once had faith in Lan Xi.

Throughout this entire time, An Zihao had been waiting at the entrance. Upon seeing Tangning, he immediately ran up and asked, "What did you guys talk about?"

"Haven't you already inquired about this mess?" Tangning questioned him back. She was sure he'd already asked the staff at Cheng Tian.

"Did Lan Xi really treat you in such an extreme way?"

"I'm afraid something even more extreme is on its way," Tangning replied. Her voice was calm, but it seemed to contain a sense of bitterness.

"All I want is what I deserve."

"I don't steal nor snatch."

"I depend on my own abilities."

"Yet, why must things be so hard?"

"I guess...if even my fiancee could become someone else's, what's so strange about a friend becoming an enemy?"

After hearing Tangning's words, An Zihao didn't know how to refute. After all, he was too familiar with the pain associated with a friend's betrayal.

"Zihao, I think you might be out of luck, I've just threatened Lan Xi."

"What you've done is not a threat. You never say anything you aren't sure of and never do anything you aren't certain about," An Zihao looked at Tangning calmly; he had faith in her.

Frozen by the agency?

Can't she get herself out of it?

An Zihao looked at Tangning's comfortable expression, he didn't believe it would be a problem for her at all.

However, in order to improve Tangning's mood, he decided to contact Lu Che so he could notify Mo Ting of what had happened.

After finding out the whole story, Mo Ting's eyes were terrifyingly cold and piercing. Even Lu Che had never seen the president reveal such a frightening expression...

Before meeting Tangning, Cheng Tian meant nothing in Mo Ting's eyes and he especially didn't care about provocation from others. However, Lan Xi was currently picking on the person he loved the most...
