Chapter 392: A Fight Between Sisters

“I booked a slot at 1 pm. However, staff members have to leave earlier.” Xia Yu looked extremely frail and even weaker when she spoke. “These rules are always in place whenever I record songs. Everyone knows that.”

Xia Ling sneered. “Who set these rules?”

Xia Yu’s face became pale and looked at her with a little injustice as if Xia Ling were swollen with arrogance and was pushing her into a corner. The assistants beside her were also not very happy. They wanted to react, but after looking at Chu Chen, they forced themselves to keep quiet.

Luo Luo lightly tugged on Xia Ling’s sleeve. “Xiao Ling, forget it…”

“Forget it?” She turned around to look at Luo Luo. “Are you just going to let her bully you like that?”

“I…” Luo Luo looked wronged as she spoke softly. “Don’t offend her. You can’t afford to that.”

It turned out that Luo Luo was worried about her.

Xia Ling was touched and was even more unwilling to let Luo Luo get bullied. After some thought, she softened her tone. “Insisting on recording at this time is really inappropriate.”

“It was not appropriate, to begin with,” Xia Yu said in a soft-spoken voice. “Ye Xingling, even Luo Luo said to forget it. You should give it up then.”

Xia Ling frowned.

“Forget it, Xiao Ling. I know your intentions. However, don’t offend someone because of me. I won’t feel at ease.” Luo Luo said.

Thus, Xia Ling sighed. “Alright, since it’s already time for lunch, it won’t be good for your body if you starve yourself. Luo Luo, you can have lunch first.”

Luo Luo bit her lip. She only lightly nodded without making a sound.

Xia Ling could see that she was indignant, but she did not insist on fighting back because she did not want to cause more trouble.

Zhou Bin, Luo Luo’s manager, was a little disappointed, but he was also quite relieved that the matter was finally settled.

Those people who voluntarily turned into spectators came to life again with disdainful looks on their faces. Pfft, what was that? They thought that Boss Pei’s new darling could threaten the status of Miss Xia Yu. Who knew that she was the same as those other women and had to lower her head in front of Miss Xia Yu.

A smug smile flashes across Xia Yu’s face. “Since you are all so understanding, what happened just now should not have happened. You can go. I won’t make things difficult for you.” She whispered softly.

At this point, who was she acting generously for?

Xia Ling squinted her eyes and looked at her coldly. “However, I also have my own rules.”

Xia Yu was aghast.

“It’s not convenient to record at noon. You can let Luo Luo have the recording studio in the late afternoon.” Xia Ling said.

“What?!” Xia Yu and her group were in disbelief as they glared at Xia Ling.

“Ha, how demanding.” Some people spat disdainfully.

Xia Yu was startled at first, but suddenly, her face flushed because she probably was never challenged by someone like that before. “Ye Xingling, don’t bully others to the extreme. The recording studio in the afternoon is mine, and I have to record a very urgent song. How can I let her have the studio?”

“A very urgent song?” Xia Ling laughed. “Xia Yu, don’t you feel ashamed for occupying the studio for an entire afternoon just for one song? In the past, Wei Shaoyin said that you’re only a singer in the recording studio. I think he’s right. Luo Luo only needs half an hour to record a song, but you need an entire afternoon.”

“Ye Xingling, that’s enough!” No matter how good Xia Yu was at acting fragile and capturing the sympathy of the people around her, she could not help but lose her composure. “Who are you to talk to me like that? What gives you the right to ask me to let her have the recording studio!”

Her shrill voice cut through the air, ear-piercing and unpleasant.

“You’re right, I’m a nobody.” Xia Ling sneered and ignored as Luo Luo anxiously pulled her sleeve. “I just don’t like seeing certain people acting weak and even bullying my friend. Chu Chen,” She turned around to call her silent manager. “I’m sure you understand what you should do.”

It sounded as if she were ordering a dog.

There were subtle changes in the expressions of the people around them. Not only did they never seen anyone talk to Xia Yu like that, they never heard anyone speak to Chu Chen like that. Even Pei Ziheng was always gracious when talking to Chu Chen as he wanted to give him respect.

Despite being shocked, a delighted look appeared on Xia Yu’s face. She probably felt that since Xia Ling did not know when to stop, she had made a wrong move and offended Chu Chen, so death was awaiting her.

However, Xia Ling did not care at all. Pei Ziheng could either change her manager or let her trample on Chu Chen’s pride completely. Was his difficulty now comparable to one-tenth of her past life?

Sure enough, Chu Chen was tolerant and calm after the backing of the people in front of him. He only advised. “Miss Ye, you don’t have to be angry. Since Xia Yu urgently needs the studio and can’t afford to wait, I will help you find another recording studio for Luo Luo in the afternoon. The result will be the same.”

He was in a good position as he would not offend both sides.

Xia Ling coldly sized him up. She almost forgot that at the end of the day, he was Pei Ziheng’s dog and not hers. He still did not know that she was actually the Diva Xia Ling and only thought of her as Pei Ziheng’s new favorite. On a normal day, if she wanted to bully others, he would just let her, but Xia Yu was the sister of Pei Ziheng’s former love. Chu Chen was very clear about their significance in Pei Ziheng’s heart and would never be impetuous.

Xia Ling snorted. “I only want this studio. Chu Chen, if you think that I can’t make you do this you can consult your Boss. Just don’t make me wait too long. I’m hungry.”

After hearing what she said, Chu Chen bowed apologetically and walked a few steps away to make a call.

Everyone fell silent and anticipated the result of his call. Unexpectedly, a small conflict in the recording studio could be so problematic that even Pei Ziheng was involved.

In the afternoon, the news that a mysterious girl got off Pei Ziheng’s Rolls Royce spread and everyone was guessing what the girl’s status was and how far she had progressed with Pei Ziheng. Now, the rumored girl was in front of them, wearing an expensive light-colored elegant dress. Even if she were a popular actress, she might also not be able to afford it, so it was probably given to her. She even had the confidence to quarrel with Xia Yu.

Everyone gazed at her with unpredictable expressions.

Xia Ling knew that her words and actions just now would cause people to speculate. However, how could she care about that now? She was already pregnant and had to help her child find a father who could ensure its safety. If everything were successful, soon, she would be someone who was “pregnant with Pei Ziheng’s child.” She was using this conflict to signify her importance and hint that her relationship with Pei Ziheng was strong to let others be mentally prepared.

Soon, Chu Chen returned.

“Old Yang,” he instructed the person in charge of the recording studio. “Let Luo Luo have this studio in the afternoon.”

Everyone was stunned and looked at Xia Ling with bizarre expressions. Some were horrified, some were inquiring, and some were deep in thought. These staff members in the entertainment industry were all veterans. Now that things had progressed to this point, everyone knew that it was not just a simple argument about the recording studio. It was a question of whether Ye Xingling or Xia Yu was more significant in the eyes of Pei Ziheng.
