Side Character Transmigrations: The Final Boss is No Joke

CHAPTER 11

"Xia Man, you still dare to come back? Just how are you so shameless? If I were you, I'd spend the rest of my life overseas and never come back, especially not to humiliate myself and the Xia family."

Just as Shi Sheng was about to continue walking, she heard Xia Man's name being spoken, causing her to pause and turn back.

A beautifully dressed woman was blocking Xia Man from entering just a few steps from Shi Sheng. Xia Man's gaze hardened slightly as she spoke in a cold voice, "I have no relation to the Xia family."

Ridicule suffused Xia Xuan's face as she spoke, "Well aren't you hard as nails? What, did you manage to find a backer? Oh that's right, the only thing you can depend on now is that body of yours..."

Pa!

Xia Xuan fell and just so happened to slam into Shi Sheng. Shi Sheng stumbled and hit the flower pot beside her. That flower pot was square-shaped so there were corners on it which caused her waist to ache.

'I was just watching a show, how come I managed to get implicated too! And as for you Lu Qingyun... would it kill you to have caught me?!'

Lu Qingyun had been standing beside her. He clearly could've helped her steady herself without much effort but this fellow simply folded his arms and smiled as he watched her bump into the flower pot.

"Are you alright?" A pair of hands helped her up. Shi Sheng furrowed her brow and looked up at their owner: Xi Mo.

"Ah Mo, you got people to hit me? What did I do?" Xia Xuan held onto her face as she looked at Xi Mo with a wronged expression. The one who had hit Xia Xuan just now was Xi Mo's assistant.

Xi Mo helped Shi Sheng up before placing an arm around her waist, his voice aloof and distant, "You were blocking my girlfriend."

Shi Sheng "..."

'This reason's rather haphazard!'

'Your grandpa. Xi Mo you were clearly helping Xia Man settle her grudges yet you justHAD to pull the aggro to me! You want to protect the white moonlight/vermillion spot in your heart[1]? No problem! But you pulled the aggro to me, you inhumane bastard!'

Xia Xuan's pupils dilated as her expression was filled with disbelief. She shot a knife-like gaze at Shi Sheng before questioning Xi Mo while pointing at her, "She- Who is she?"

'Girlfriend? When did Xi Mo get a girlfriend? It must've been this woman who seduced Ah Mo!'

Shi Sheng felt revolt at Xi Mo's touch so she grabbed onto Lu Qingyun and used the leverage to pull herself out of Xi Mo's arms. Leaning against Lu Qingyun's arm, she spoke, "President Xi, you can eat anything you want but can't just speak anything you want. There's clearly nothing between us. It's not good of you to ruin my reputation like this."

'It seems like I am going to have to completely oppose Xi Mo today. Forget it, continuing to stay at Dongfang Entertainment is tiring as is. I mean, wouldn't anyone who had a boss who'd pull you out as a shield at any time agree?'

Lu Qingyun looked at the woman leaning on him and a trace of slyness flashed in his eyes. He retreated a step, planning on letting Shi Sheng fall. However, she had already expected him to do this. Though she looked like she had been leaning heavily on him, she hadn't actually put that much weight against him. When he moved, Shi Sheng moved with him.

Their movements weren't too big. In the eyes of others, Lu Qingyun had simply switched his posture to better support Shi Sheng. In truth, the two were having a secret battle. In the end, Lu Qingyun smiled and gave up on pushing Shi Sheng away. Instead, he hugged Shi Sheng's waist and pinched it.
