Chapter 311: Chapter 311

"Can’t go up? What’s stopping you?" Li Chengjun suddenly laughed. He then quickly sidestepped, pinning Hua Xiaomo against the railing. "Is Oscar really that charming?" He deliberately pressed his upper body down towards her.

"You..." Hua Xiaomo felt the pressure and quickly pressed a palm against his chest. A surge of Malice filled her eyes, and a spark of anger simmered in her heart. She warned, "Sir, if you keep this up, I won’t be polite anymore."

"Not polite? How exactly will you not be polite?" Li Chengjun gave a wicked smile, his lips curling into a shallow arc. "Oscar told me you’re quite skilled ’on board,’ so he recommended you to me. If..."

"If you can satisfy me, it’s not impossible for a second-rate star like you to make it to the A-list," Li Chengjun said with a cold laugh. He didn’t expect Oscar to be so indiscriminate. Did he sleep with just any woman?

This woman looked rough and brawny, the typical simple-minded, brawny fool!

If Oscar hadn’t asked him to deal with this woman and get her back, Li Chengjun, with his personality, would never have waded into these dirty waters.

Hua Xiaomo frowned as she listened. She finally understood what was going on. He was looking for Vickie, not her.

"Want to try my skills, do you? Then I’ll oblige!" Hua Xiaomo said with a cold laugh.

Hua Xiaomo kicked toward his kneecap. As he bent over in pain, she fiercely grabbed his shoulders with both hands and thrust her knee up into his abdomen. Then she quickly stepped back two paces, putting distance between them.

Li Chengjun bent over in agony. "Vickie! Are you crazy?!" he yelled, about to curse out of anger and embarrassment.

Suddenly, a delicate, coy female voice came through. "What are you two doing?"

A graceful figure entered their field of vision. Vickie, seeing the two of them on the stairs, paused.

Hua Xiaomo cast a disdainful glance at Li Chengjun and then looked at the woman downstairs. "Sister Vickie, you dropped your bag on set. I came to return it. This man... probably came looking for you."

After saying that, Hua Xiaomo quickly left the villa.

What? She’s not Vickie?

Li Chengjun watched her retreating figure, grinding his teeth in anger. At that moment, he couldn’t care less about his image and shouted at the woman downstairs, "What exactly does that woman do?"

"...She... She’s my stand-in!" Vickie answered, quickly approaching Li Chengjun with a concerned expression. "Chairman Jin, are you alright?"

He was Oscar’s cousin, Li Chengjun, the Chairman of ROC Holdings. It made sense that he didn’t recognize her. But it would be way too out of touch if she didn’t recognize him.

This man was worth even more than Oscar; he was the golden, wealthy hunk that women all over the world dreamed of marrying!

Li Chengjun stood up, his face stern. Gone was any trace of his previous ease; a chilling intent quickly clouded his eyes.

「The following evening.」

The sky was aglow with the sunset, its light turning the city into a resplendently dressed woman, dazzling and magnificent.

"Hurry up! The movie’s about to start." Hua Xiaomo pulled Ya Ying with her as they headed inside.

"Why bother with a movie? I’ve got news for you that’s even better than any movie!" Ya Ying said, looking mysteriously at Hua Xiaomo, who was dressed in white casual sportswear.

"Your idol, Oscar, is in the VIP lounge with his girlfriend right now. They’ve booked the whole place! What do you think? Want to go take a look?" Ya Ying said with a twinkle in her eye.

"Ah? Oscar and his girlfriend, Vickie?" Hua Xiaomo looked at Ya Ying. Her mind hadn’t forgotten the events of yesterday.

"Vickie? What Vickie? She’s just a B-list celebrity. The real girlfriend’s name is Yin Se! She has a British background! How about that? Don’t you want to see the two of them... in all their glory?" Ya Ying said, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Hua Xiaomo.

"Yes! Definitely!" Hua Xiaomo’s eyes shone brightly at the prospect. The chance to see Oscar and his legendary girlfriend—where else could she find such a two-for-one opportunity?

"HEHE, then follow me! This is way more exciting than that movie!"

Ya Ying then led Hua Xiaomo through an employee-only passage, swiping her card to enter the backstage area of Hairun Film and Television.

"Ya Ying, is this really okay? What if someone sees us?"

"No problem. All of Hairun Film and Television is under ROC Holdings. I work here, so it’s no issue entering this way."

Soon, the two girls tiptoed near the VIP lounge. But before they could get closer, Hua Xiaomo saw several journalists with cameras on their shoulders swiftly advancing in their direction, followed by even more people.

"Quick, quick, quick! Oscar and his German girlfriend are on a date inside! Get it on camera!"

"Yeah, this news is going to be sensational! It’ll definitely make headlines tomorrow morning!"

Ya Ying’s scalp tingled at the sight. Crap, how did they get in here? she thought, then suddenly wondered, Could there have been a problem when I swiped the card at the employee entrance earlier?

Seeing the crowd rushing towards the VIP lounge entrance, Hua Xiaomo’s eyes narrowed urgently. She couldn’t let these people capture anything on camera; it would certainly damage her idol’s reputation! As a die-hard fan, she had to protect everything about her idol!

For her idol, she was all in!

"Hey, hey, hey! You can’t go in! You can’t go in!" Hua Xiaomo spread her arms, blocking the reporter at the front. Her smile was forced as she said, "UH, UH, HEHE... sorry, you can’t film this."

"Who are you to tell me I can’t film? Get out of my way!" the reporter snapped irritably.

More and more people surged toward them, and Ya Ying and Hua Xiaomo were struggling to hold them back.

Seeing this, Hua Xiaomo simply shouted, "Oscar, get out of there!"

Suddenly, a figure emerged from the VIP lounge, looking sharp and neat in a well-tailored designer suit. Read full story at 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵

His gaze held scrutiny and sharpness. His handsome face carried a trace of mild anger. His slightly long, tousled hair hung over the corner of his eye, catching the light beautifully and giving off an air of aloofness and distance.

He embodied nobility and coldness to perfection.

Li Chengjun looked at the crowd that had suddenly appeared, his amber-black eyes showing a hint of displeasure. Of course, he quickly recognized one of them.

His gaze shifted to Hua Xiaomo’s face, a complex emotion rippling deep in his heart.

Hua Xiaomo was also stunned when she saw Li Chengjun.

This guy is still here? He’s so annoying! Hua Xiaomo thought. Although she had no fondness for Li Chengjun and didn’t know his background, at this moment, she truly had nothing good to say to him.
