Chapter 510 - Falling into a Trap (1/2)

“Xia Yu, I…” She stopped and didn’t finish her words.

But judging by her expression, it was clear that something had happened. Xia Yu asked in doubt, “What’s wrong?”

“Well, nothing. Nothing.” She waved her hands and said with a stiff smile on her face and flickered eyes, and then turned around to leave quickly.

It was not Xia Yu’s fault to suspect that something had happened to Cai Yanyan as she seemed to be with a heavy heart. Xia Yu wanted to ask her about it, while she was just wanted at this time, so Xia Yu had to give up the idea.

Looking at her back in a hurry, Xia Yu felt somewhat weird. Recalling the words Shen Qiang said to her before, she frowned in spite of herself.

But it didn’t take long for Cai Yanyan to come back again. She no longer looked troubled, pulling Xia Yu to the dance floor instead. Xia Yu thought that she was weird. She asked her a few insinuating questions, while Cai Yanyan avoided them all skillfully.

The entertainment industry was totally different from ordinary companies, so Xia Yu could imagine how stressed she was. She walked to the dance floor with Cai Yanyan reluctantly. Since she was not in the mood to dance, she left the dance floor after dancing for a while. She stepped aside and gulped down the remaining champagne in the glass.

She then sat on the sofa, staring at Cai Yanyan, who was desperately wiggling on the dance floor, thinking it had been months since they knew each other.

At that time, Xia Yu just got the job in Tengfei. She had defeated Fang Yuan, the most trusted secretary of Shen Yan within three days of her appointment. Fang Yuan resigned with anger, and then she successfully became the chief secretary of Shen Yan.

It caused quite a stir in Tengfei at that time. Except for Liu Sijie and Shen Qiang, it was really hard for Xia Yu to find the third person who hadn’t tried to trip her up. Although Cai Yanyan didn’t make it obvious, she had taken advantage of Bao Na for so many times.

Then Shen Yan dismissed Bao Na without leaving leeway, and then Cai Yanyan, who was shrewd, shifted her ground then. Although her relationship with Xia Yu was not so good, she didn’t dare to do something obvious to make Xia Yu disgusted again.

Then Fang Feifei and Li Feiran were promoted together, and Cai Yanyan resigned. It was after she resigned that she got closer to Xia Yu. Thinking of that, Xia Yu felt there was not much friendship between them.

While living in S city, such a stressful city, Xia Yu had seen too much cheating and too many frame-ups. True friendship did exist, while it was quite rare. Cai Yanyan was a realistic person, otherwise, she would not have frightened her with a dead cat.

Xia Yu didn’t care about such trivial things. After all, they were colleagues. It was the last thing she wanted to do to sharpen the contradictions with her colleagues. It was better to say hello to colleagues than to meet them with a cold face.

After thinking about it, Xia Yu didn’t leave immediately while planned to sit here for another while. She would leave after saying goodbye to Cai Yanyan after she came over. It was what a polite person should do.

“Hoo!”

Xia Yu sat for about half an hour again. In the meantime, two people came over to say hello to Xia Yu and asked her what company she worked for and how many plays she had appeared in.

They obviously regarded her as an unknown star. Xia Yu explained that she was not in the entertainment industry, and she was a former colleague of Cai Yanyan. Finding they had no overlapping areas of interest with Xia Yu, they walked away.

Xia Yu glanced at the time and planned to tell Cai Yanyan after she finished the dance that she was going to leave. But she didn’t know why her body was getting hotter and hotter. Xia Yu touched her forehead, and it was sweaty. She stood up and walked to the door, planning to go out to get some fresh air. She thought it might because the room was too stuffy and noisy.

While before she came to the door, Cai Yanyan came over and asked anxiously, “Xia Yu, where are you going?”

“I’ll have a stroll in the garden.”

Xia Yu said urgently, feeling that there was a fire in her body. She didn’t stop her steps, but Cai Yanyan stood in front of her and said, “Xia Yu, you want to leave? The party has just started!”

Xia Yu pulled her collar. The atmosphere here was incompatible with her. She wanted to leave. But for some reason, a sense of uneasiness gradually developed in her heart. There was something wrong with her body. No matter how hot and stuffy the room was, she should not have had the idea to take off all the clothes. And the strength in her body seemed to be passing away. Her arms and legs felt like jelly.

She looked up at Cai Yanyan and saw a guilty conscience in her eyes who was in front of her. Xia Yu was startled, thinking that she might have fallen into an elaborate trap.

She was taken advantage by Zhou Jiamin before, while Zhou Jiamin and Li Tianci had already fallen from power. And it was Shen Mo who put them in jail. Even if they tried to retaliate, she should not be the target.

Xia Yu had hate and anxiety in her heart. She clenched her fists, telling herself to calm down secretly. She was not able to leave at this time, so she could only try to seek help.

Xia Yu looked at the group of people on the dance floor and finally understood why Cai Yanyan had not invited any other colleagues in the company.

“I don’t want to leave. I just feel a little hot. By the way, where is the bathroom? I wanna wash my face.” Xia Yu said with a smile. She tried her best to buy time.

“I’ll take you there.” said Cai Yanyan quickly.

“Okay, thank you. Yanyan, you’re so nice. By the way, I met with Director Feng yesterday. At the time, he said he would make a movie. I can recommend you to the director. There is a female supporting role, and I think you are suitable.”

Xia Yu had never had any contradictions with Cai Yanyan, so she would not be the one who wanted to hurt her. She must have done it for profit, so she would like to give her what she wanted.
