Chapter 230 - A Change Of Style? (1/2)
Chapter 230 A Change Of Style?She had been removed from the novel world and returned to the broadcast room.
The broadcast room was filled with messages from Tang Xia’s fans congratulating her for conquering yet another novel world. Tang Xia selected the most interesting comments and interacted with them, but for some unknown reason, the face of Chu Tiankuo which she had seen before she left, flashed in her mind.
After it had ended, July’s assistant came to call Tang Xia for a meeting. Tang Xia adjusted her mood and upon arriving at July’s office, discovered that only July and Li Xianxian were inside.
Li Xianxian had arrived earlier than Tang Xia and it seemed that she had been lectured by July for quite some time.
“What’s wrong with you? How could you screw up like that during the livestream?”
July slammed the table and stood up with a furious and dissatisfied look on her face. Li Xianxian looked embarrassed as she stood before the office desk in silence, while July continued to reprimand her.
“I know that you usually like to play dirty tricks during the livestream. As long as you don’t cross the line, I won’t bother you. I always thought that you knew your place, but this time, you really disappointed me!”
July continued to speak angrily, his face flushed red with agitation.
In front of him, Li Xianxian’s face continuously changed. She bit her lip, as if she wanted to speak, but stopped, “July, I…”
“You don’t need to say anything else,” July stopped her with an agitated wave of his hands. He held his forehead as if he had a headache. “The company will not be able to help you this time. Think about how you are going to explain it to your fans!”
Li Xianxian lowered her head and appeared crestfallen, a hint of remorse in her eyes.
Tang Xia stood at the door of the office. It was rather awkward for her to witness such a situation and at that moment, she felt she could neither enter nor leave.
Just when Tang Xia was thinking about whether or not to come back later, July noticed her and unconsciously smiled. “Tangxia, you are here.” Even his voice softened, growing slightly gentler.
When Li Xianxian heard July’s voice, she turned her head and saw Tang Xia. A look of jealousy and hatred appeared in her eyes, when she noticed July’s change in attitude, her teeth gnashed even harder as if she could not wait to swallow Tang Xia into her stomach.
Tang Xia could only bite the bullet and entered the room under the murderous gaze of Li Xianxian. She greeted July and July warmly praised her, “Tang Xia, you did a great job this time.”
Wittingly or unwittingly, July glanced at Li Xianxian when he said it.
Li Xianxian instantly felt slightly indignant. She straightened her back and pointed angrily at Tang Xia. “July, it is rather unfair of you to say so. Wasn’t Tang Xia just relying on Chu Tiankuo?”
Li Xianxian’s face was full of displeasure as she mentioned Chu Tiankuo. If Chu Tiankuo did not appear suddenly to help Tang Xia to deal with Chu Tianjiao, how could she be so thoroughly defeated?
Randomly being mentioned together with Chu Tiankuo caused Tang Xia’s face to change, but she did not speak.
July shook his head. “Chu Tiankuo is a special case. Furthermore, Tang Xia’s clothes were not in disarray like yours were during the livestream.”
Li Xianxian’s face was pale but everything that July said was true and there was no way for her to refute it. She could only bite and crack her silver teeth and swallow her feelings into her stomach.
“Alright. Go back and reflect on your actions. Beyond that, you should not do another livestream again this month.” July waved his hand at Li Xianxian signaling that he was done lecturing her.
“Forbidden to do a livestream for a month?” Li Xianxian’s face was already pale from earlier and when she heard these words, she could not help but yell out before she quickly backed off. “Isn’t the duration of this punishment too long?”
Even Tang Xia, standing to the side, turned her eyes slightly when she heard this and looked at Li Xianxian with sympathy.
Not to mention a month’s duration, a restriction on livestream would imply zero exposure and heat for the anchor, and it would have a significant impact on the anchor’s popularity.
When July heard this, he sneered, “I think that you are still unaware of the seriousness of the matter.”
As July spoke, he took out a tablet with a webpage already open on it and casually typed in three words “Li Xianxian”. Immediately, a series of news reports about Li Xianxian’s inappropriate conduct during the livestream appeared along with photos of her messy attire and appearance during the livestream.
“Take a look for yourself. Could such a terrible impact cool down in less than a month?” July said coldly as his fingertip tapped on the offending news.
When Li Xianxian saw the content with her own eyes, her face changed and she no longer had the confidence to rebut July. At that point in time, she was already so regretful she felt nauseous. However, things had already happened so what was the use of regret?
Li Xianxian glared viciously at Tang Xia clearing blaming her for the incident. If it wasn’t for Tang Xia, she wouldn’t be so caught up by victory and defeat during the livestream to the point that she would do this kind of foolish thing.
The thing that was the hardest for her to let go of, was obviously still the final result. She had clearly dedicated so much and yet she still lost to Tang Xia. How could she be willing to accept this?
“Sooner or later, I will get you back for this,” Li Xianxian thought angrily and left July’s office. Before she left, she could still vaguely hear July speaking in a soft, gentle voice to Tang Xia and it made her even more jealous and hateful towards Tang Xia.
It wasn’t until Li Xianxian left the office that the frost on July’s face faded away slightly. After a few more words of encouragement to Tang Xia, the subject suddenly changed, “Have you considered a transformation?”
Transformation? Tang Xia was stunned for a moment, and for a while, she did not understand what July meant. July smiled meaningfully, an intriguing look in his eyes. “You can take a look on Weibo first.”
She had just finished her livestream and had only rested for a short while before she came to July’s office, so naturally she had no time to pay attention to Weibo. Puzzled, she opened the hot search.
