Chen Li publicly announced his relationship with Ling Xiaoxiao, angering his company due to a contract clause prohibiting dating. Xia Ting confronted Chen Li about the announcement, but he dismissed her concerns, stating his personal life was not her business and he was willing to pay any penalty fees. Xia Ting managed to renegotiate Chen Li's contract, securing his career and personal freedom, but Chen Li was angered that she made these decisions without his input.

Moreover, this time she fought for a lot of benefits for him, he should be happy, the company doesn’t oppose him dating anymore.

"I’m sorry, I didn’t ask for your opinion, I just agreed to renew for one year, and the company agreed to let you date, they won’t interfere with you anymore."

Chen Li looked at her uncomfortable appearance, it made him feel uneasy too, and he felt very regretful for what he had just said.

He didn’t intentionally want to say those words, he only said them in a moment of anger.

Angry that she helped him renew the contract, he didn’t want to stay at this company at all.

This company suppresses him and doesn’t even allow him to date, he had long thought of leaving.

Unexpectedly, she even went to help him renew the contract, and told him the company wouldn’t interfere with his romance with Ling Xiaoxiao.

Does she not care at all that he’s with other women?

Doesn’t she get angry even a little bit?

Is her heart made of stone? Do these years of getting along mean nothing to her?

Has she always regarded him as just a brother?

So she would conceal her own matchmaking and want to get married!

Thinking of these things made him furious, the words came out naturally, and very unpleasantly: "Thank you! You give me the keys to my home, I’ll give them to Xiaoxiao."

"Alright!" Xia Ting forced out a thin smile, he didn’t need her anymore.

After giving him the keys, she didn’t linger for a moment, and immediately left his house.

Chen Li held the keys in his hand, feeling miserable and unsure of what to do.

He didn’t want it to be like this, it was she who forced it...

In the following days, Chen Li constantly found excuses to criticize Xia Ting, and made her embarrassed in front of many people.

While filming in the crew, he always erupted at Xia Ting every day, intentionally giving her a hard time!

Xia Ting was in a bad mood, she hadn’t had a proper rest for several days.

Her physical condition deteriorated as well, she had a fever and a cold.

She wasn’t assured about him, and insisted on following the crew to take care of him.

Chen Li was reading the script, she kept sneezing beside him.

"Are you annoying or what? If you’re sick, just go back and rest, constantly sneezing beside me, trying to infect me?"

"Sorry, I’ll stay farther from you." Xia Ting covered her mouth, stood up, and moved to sit elsewhere.

Chen Li gripped the script tightly, his peripheral vision continually focused on her.

Being sick and not resting in the hotel, what’s she walking around here for!

Photographer Wang noticed Xia Ting feeling unwell, and purposely went to buy cold medicine for her.

"Xia, take the medicine quickly, otherwise it will get worse." Wang held cold medicine and a cup of hot water in his hand.

"Thank you." Xia Ting stood up emotionally and thanked him, taking the medicine and water from his hand.

At a time like this, someone still cared about her, it’s truly touching.

"Oh, cold medicine, you should’ve taken it earlier, otherwise the entire crew will get infected by you!" Chen Li walked over with the script, mocked, and said to Xia Ting.

Someone actually bought her cold medicine, that’s really nice.

"I’ll go to work first." Wang said to Xia Ting and then turned around to leave.

"Mm." Xia Ting nodded.

"Just in time, I’m thirsty." Chen Li curved his lips, took the hot water from her hand, and drank it.

After drinking, he scornfully remarked: "It’s so hot, yet he gave it to you, does he want to scald you to death?"

"Why didn’t it scald you to death?" Xia Ting angrily replied.

Wang had good intentions, and yet he spoke about him like that—it’s too much!

"You curse me!" Chen Li’s face turned cold.

"I wouldn’t dare."

"I think you’ve got a thing for him!" Chen Li laughed sarcastically.

"What nonsense are you talking!"

"You’re at such an age, it’s time to find a boyfriend. Wang’s conditions aren’t bad, consider him!" Saying this, Chen Li wished he could bite his tongue off, what was he saying!!
