Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Wang Ming reluctantly found a place for himself to land on the sofa. He looked at a certain someone who was pretending to be dead and said helplessly, “Alright, I won’t talk to you anymore, okay? Stop pretending to be dead. Hurry up and get up to talk business!”

Xia Wei covered herself with a blanket and did not move. She only supported Great Manager Wang in silence as he continued.

“Looking at the current situation, it’s inevitable that [Heartthrob TA] will be suspended and modified by the higher-ups! This is something we can’t control. There’s nothing we can do. However, your work schedule has to continue to advance. Working with He Shi and Fang Kai is an urgent matter!”

“We can use the gap between [Heartthrob TA]’s termination to complete all the work that has been piling up. You still have to film ‘Female Assassin’ and that heavyweight movie. We have to make time in advance. You have to film seriously and not be distracted by other things! I’ll communicate with Teacher He Shi tomorrow. After we return to the production team of ‘Female Assassin’ on Monday to confirm the filming progress, we can move on to other work.”

Wang Ming rambled on about these work arrangements. Although Xia Wei did not say anything, she knew that this was her work schedule after this. Hence, she continued to play dead without much interest!

Wang Ming couldn’t stand it anymore. He lifted the blanket off her face and glared at her. “Did you hear what 1 said? Stop pretending not to hear me!”

Xia Wei raised her hand to block the dazzling light above her head and raised her eyebrows slightly to look at Brother Wang. After a moment of silence, she asked inconspicuously, not here not there, “Brother Wang, how did you coax Sister-in-law when you made her angry? It’s not an ordinary situation. It’s a very, very angry situation!”

The manager, who obviously did not follow Xia Wei’s train of thought, said,”… What do you mean by I made your sister-in-law angry? Is that what I’m telling you? Xia Wei! Can you focus more? I…”

“I know, I know! Arrange my work. 1 didn’t say that I won’t go! I’m asking you something serious. Can you answer me honestly? Ah!” Xia Wei suddenly sat up from the sofa and interrupted Wang Ming’s nagging helplessly.

Wang Ming, who was inexplicably scolded, looked at Xia Wei strangely, but he finally answered Xia Wei’s question honestly!

What could he do if he didn’t answer? Who asked Xia Wei to be his little ancestor? He sat back and thought about his wife at home. “Your sister-in-law has a good temper and doesn’t get angry easily! But every time I do something overboard, I buy flowers and jewelry to make her happy. If it’s worse, I’ll stay at home with her and cook for her until she calms down! Actually, your sister-in-law is quite easy to coax!”

Xia Wei listened to Wang Ming’s “brilliant plan” very seriously. After thinking for a while, she asked with a serious expression, “Is buying gifts really useful?”

Wang Ming looked at Xia Wei’s serious expression. Although he did not understand, he still nodded obediently. After a few seconds, he suddenly found his smart brain and asked curiously and dangerously, “Why are you asking this? Who are you coaxing?”

Xia Wei hid her guilt as if nothing had happened. She got up and stretched. Pretending to be tired and weak, she joked, “Why am I so tired today? Did I catch a cold after soaking in the water for so long? I can’t take it anymore. I’m too tired. I have to go to bed! Good night, Brother Wang. Help me take out the trash and close the door when you go out. Thank you!”

As she spoke, she kicked off her slippers and walked back to the bedroom. She did not take it to heart that her manager was sizing her up. She already looked fearless.

Looking at the door that was closed with a bang, Wang Ming sighed helplessly. He casually tidied up the sofa that Xia Wei had rolled into a ‘pig’s nest’, carried the trash produced by the dinner takeaway, and obediently closed the door for Xia Wei before leaving!

As for who Xia Wei wanted to coax, Wang Ming naturally knew. He just saw through it and did not say it out loud.

Xia Wei did not care if Wang Ming knew about this. After she rolled back to the bedroom, she lay comfortably on the bed and looked at her cell phone!

“Why should I buy him a gift? He doesn’t seem to have anything he likes, right? Should I send a message to test him? He shouldn’t be asleep yet, right? He might be busy with some work!”
