When Bian Xin arrived, she happened to see Xia Shutong, with her fingers intertwined under her chin, a glimmer of smile in her eyes, and engaged in conversation with Qian Lingling.
Although she appeared to be smiling, it still sent shivers down people’s spines, as always.
Bian Xin lowered her gaze and sat across from Xia Shutong, suppressing her fear, and said, “President Xia, what can I do for you?”
It was true that Bian Xin was involved in the incident with the props, but at that time, she only wanted to trip Yun Feiwu and let out her emotions, without expecting there to be such a long piece of scrap iron in the pit.
When Bian Xin saw Yun Feiwu’s wound, she was indeed startled, but quickly a continuous stream of satisfaction surged in her heart. However, when Xia Shutong rushed back, that satisfaction quickly transformed into fear.
What should she do if President Xia finds out that she was behind it?
No, it’s not possible! There was no surveillance on the set, and no one saw anything at that time. As for fingerprints, when the prop broke, no one suspected foul play, and the team assigned for the props had touched it numerous times. It’s absolutely impossible to trace it back to her.
“Miss Bian, there’s no need to ask redundant questions, right?” Xia Shutong raised an eyebrow, and behind her gentle and reserved almond-shaped eyes, a chilling murderous intent could be sensed.

Bian Xin bit her lip but still shook her head.
“And then, on the set, Director Dai’s behavior towards you and Yun Feiwu was completely different. So not only do you hate Yun Feiwu, but you also want to use unspoken rules to gain a position and manipulate Director Dai into being with you. But unexpectedly, not only did he not show any interest in you, but also shamefully humiliated you”, Xia Shutong chuckled for a moment before continuing slowly, “So, this became the last straw that broke the camel’s back for you, leading you to decide to conspire against Yun Feiwu, am I right?”
Bian Xin stood up abruptly from her seat, shaking her head vigorously, “President Xia, what are you saying! How could I, I haven’t! I have known Yun Yun for a long time, and I’ve always admired her talent, but I never thought of harming her.”
Xia Shutong’s expression turned cold.
Bian Xin’s reaction had already revealed everything.
“Miss Bian, I have another question,” Xia Shutong said calmly, “The paparazzi on the day of the shoot, did you hire them too?”
“I…” Bian Xin paused for a moment, then shook her head fiercely, “I didn’t!”
She never expected that Xia Shutong would suspect her!
Bian Xin’s intention at that time was simple; she just wanted Yun Feiwu to be late for a while, so that the media’s attention would naturally fall on her. There might even be negative reports about Yun Feiwu acting like a diva…
But on the day of the shoot, she and Yun Feiwu didn’t show any problems on the surface. How could Xia Shutong think it was she who orchestrated everything?
Xia Shutong couldn’t help but sigh in her heart. She was only asking casually, but she didn’t expect Bian Xin to have such poor mental resilience.
Although Bian Xin was denying it, her face was clearly saying, “Yes, I did it.”
“Miss Bian, as an actress, shouldn’t you perform in a more subtle and realistic manner? It’s too artificial,” Xia Shutong’s voice was calm. “Alright, Bian Xin, let’s end our conversation here today. It’s currently 3 p.m., and we still have four hours until nightfall. I want you to leave this city before it gets dark, is that clear?”
She slowly approached Bian Xin, placing her hand on her shoulder. “Bian Xin, don’t worry, I don’t have any evidence, so I won’t report you to the police, but… since you’ve done it, you should face the consequences of your actions, don’t you think?”
“I… I really didn’t… President Xia, please believe me…” Bian Xin’s voice suddenly became tearful as she grabbed Xia Shutong’s hand, pleading desperately.
Xia Shutong shook off her hand, but this time, her hand didn’t land on Bian Xin’s shoulder, but on her cheek.
Two slapping sounds rang out.
“Miss Bian,” Xia Shutong smiled, “why don’t you leave now?”
After Bian Xin slipped out of the room like a runaway, Qian Lingling skillfully handed her a wet tissue.
After Xia Shutong finished wiping her hands, she sat back in her previous position, crossed her legs, and chuckled, “Xiao Qian, contact the PR department of Wutong.”
