Chapter 165: Chapter 165 The Theme Song of “Allure
After some thought, he made a phone call home.
Having walked away silently last night, he was unsure how Xia Weibao was doing now, and whether she might be a bit resentful towards him.
However, he was destined to be disappointed.
From Housekeeper Fu, he learned that Xia Weibao had moved to the guest room overnight, had breakfast as usual in the morning, and then left.
Suddenly feeling weary.
Xia Weibao was absolutely one of the most heartless women he had ever seen!
After he’d shown his displeasure and left last night, she actually moved to the guest room.
Was it that in her eyes, her husband was dispensable?
Whether he was happy or angry, it didn’t seem to matter to her.
Or was it that only that man existed in her heart and to her, he was just a passerby?
The light from the floor-to-ceiling window spilled in from behind, making it impossible to see his face against the light.
But one could feel a deep sense of powerlessness emanating from his bones.
Xia Weibao was embarking on a new round of battles, suddenly feeling a bit down.
Caught off guard, she was taken down with a single shot.
Staring at the character that had died on her phone screen, she felt a void in her heart.
Lifting her hand to touch where her heart was, His Majesty, is it you thinking of your concubine?
Why did she suddenly think of him…
Suddenly losing interest in the game, and looking at the chilled chicken feet beside her, her appetite vanished as well.
She stood up and returned to the set.
The Dog Emperor was a thing of the past. In this strange world, she was alone, needing to work to support herself.
She had requested leave from Xu Jiayang that morning because she had a plan to disrupt a scene.
Now that she was back, she naturally had to let him know.
She only found out that Xu Jiayang had just gone to the recording studio after asking the crew.
Inside the recording studio, Xu Jiayang was taking a call with a grim expression.
“Director Xu, I’m really sorry, it’s not that Siqian refuses to help you, but her schedule is just too packed.
Siqian’s national tour is about to begin, and she’s been in intense rehearsals recently, plus she’s got to be on the ‘Heavenly Voice’ show in a few days. She doesn’t even have time to sleep. I’m really sorry, you’ll have to find someone else,” the voice on the phone said.
The more Xu Jiayang listened, the darker his expression became.
Last-minute changes that derailed all his plans were frustrating for anyone.
But since the other side had put it that way, he couldn’t say much else.
“Alright then, I’ll look for someone else,” he said.
After speaking, he hung up the call and sighed heavily.
On the other end of the phone, Lin Siqian, seeing her manager Liu Xing hang up, asked absentmindedly, “How did it go?”
Liu Xing smiled at her, “Xu Jiayang said he’ll look for someone else.”
Lin Siqian leaned lazily on the tatami mat, her expression one of disdain, “With his current status, who could he possibly find?”
“That’s right, it’s only because you were mindful of past favors that you agreed to sing the theme song for ‘Allure.’ Everyone else has been avoiding him like the plague,” Liu Xing remarked.
Mentioning this made Lin Siqian even more impatient, and a sense of disgust washed over her.
Back when she was just a small-time singer, it was Xu Jiayang who had her sing the theme song for his movie, which led to her instant fame.
Subsequently, she formed a public relationship with Jiang Ming, climbing her way to her current status as one of the divas in the music industry.
One could say that she was a star Xu Jiayang had helped to rise.
So when Xu Jiayang approached her to help sing the theme song for ‘Allure,’ although she was somewhat repulsed by this attempt to leverage their relationship, she agreed in light of the help he’d given her at the start of her career.
But who could have anticipated that Xia Weibao would ruin her proposal today, causing her to lose face!
She’d be crazy to promote ‘Allure’!
